On the spring solstice, the snow accumulated throughout the winter in Jiang Guo also began to melt.

This season is also a headache for everyone.

The snow melted and flowed into the Posa River, which runs through the entire Jiang country, causing the Jiang country to face the most serious flooding.

Usually, this is always the task of everyone to play football. This year, this problem was thrown directly to Lu Hui.

As the crown prince who had just begun to supervise the country, Lu Hui could not refuse the heavy responsibility of controlling the floods. Not only did she have to do it, but she had to do it well.

So she had a lot of headaches.

Zong Yuan looked at Lu Hui and frowned, and he didn't feel a little annoyed.

He handed the information from the various prefectures in his hand to Lu Hui, and said worriedly: "Your Highness, the recent floods in the prefectures and counties have been quite serious, and the refugees are coming to Xijing, I am afraid that after a while, they should squeeze into Xijing." ”

This year's snow is heavier and longer than usual, which means that this year's flooding will be even worse.

In previous years, Xijing always suppressed the displaced people by force, and did not allow them to enter the city.

But this year, as the number of displaced people increases, I am afraid that it is no longer possible to suppress it.

Besides, Lu Hui didn't want to do this.

She took the information and glanced at it carefully, knowing something about the current situation.

Things were more serious than she had imagined.

The Bosa River burst its banks, washing away the farmland on both sides of the river, and also destroying many granaries.

Although the county government remedied the situation in time and fished out a lot of grain from the water, most of it fell into the water after all.

The granaries were washed down, and the displaced people lost not only shelter, but also food rations.

The disaster is greater than ever before.

And this time, Shan Shulin couldn't help her.

After the collapse of the Fan family, the distribution of military salaries was also affected, and Shan Shulin, as the commander of the upcoming expedition, had the obligation to cooperate with the Ministry of War to deal with this matter.

He was busier than before, and he couldn't see him almost all day.

The most powerful helper by Lu Hui's side became Zong Yuan.

It cannot be denied that as the champion, Zong Yuan's way of handling things does have his uniqueness. He is very down-to-earth, and Lu Hui is very relieved.

Zong Yuan spread the drawings he had drawn in advance on the desk and pointed them out to Lu Hui: "Now we are facing three problems. First, flood control; second, the resettlement of displaced people; Third, solve the food problem. ”

Of these three problems, none of them is a trivial problem. The slightest carelessness will lead to disaster.

Lu Hui naturally understood. She looked at what Zong Yuan was pointing at on the drawing, and some of his thoughts and countermeasures had been written on it with a fine pen.

"In previous years, we usually used to build high dikes and widen the Posa River to bring water into the Yali Sea."

"But now it seems that this method can only temporarily relieve the pressure, and when it snows heavily, it will become a hidden danger for the next year."

Moreover, as the levees are built higher and higher, water accumulates, and future floods will only become more difficult to deal with.

"If you want to do it once and for all, you must let these waters of Jiang Guo flow where they should go."

Lu Hui sighed: "I'm afraid it's not that simple. ”

Why don't the officials in charge of this in previous years want to do this? But that's easier said than done.

Zong Yuan's eyes were shining.

There was a smile on his lips, and he was so excited that he almost trembled: "No, I've thought about it for a long time in the past few days, and I actually asked me to come up with a way." ”

"To build a dam or to renovate it, we need manpower and labor. What we need is food and money to help the victims. There is merit in both of these things, Your Highness! ”

Lu Hui heard the meaning of his words and frowned: "You mean to say that let the disaster victims fill the labor gap?" ”

"Yes, Your Highness!" Zong Yuan laughed, "We also have to raise soldiers, and we also have to raise disaster victims, if we can classify the entire water conservancy transformation of Jiang Country as beneficial to the people, I am afraid that we only need to give these disaster victims a mouthful of food, and they are willing to give up all their strength to do this." ”

"And the shrinkage of disaster relief payments will be contained." Lu Hui said.

If the disaster relief money is directly distributed to the victims as a subsidy, then the amount of money will be fixed, and the officials next to it will not be guilty of corruption.

Thinking of this, Lu Hui also felt happy with Zong Yuan.

She felt that Zong Yuan's idea was feasible.

Looking at the map of Jiang Guo he brought, Lu Hui was very interested, and looked at the new waterway opened up with ink on it, and was faintly excited.

"Your Highness, look here......" Zong Yuan stood up, pointed to the map with a jade hair, and explained his thoughts to Lu Hui.

In water conservancy, although Lu Hui is not comprehensible, he is also understood under Zong Yuan's detailed description. She felt more and more that Zong Yuan's opinion was feasible and very good.

They discussed it for a day and a night, and discussed the whole arrangement, word by word.

It is naturally impossible to make the victims of the disaster work in the daylight.

Lu Hui felt that since he wanted to develop water conservancy, he would do it to the end.

Each village near the Posa River suffered the most, and the number of displaced people was the largest. The most affected villages were designated as the first sites for renovation, and the water from the Posa River was diverted to create large ponds.

The pond is owned by the village, and all the people who participate in the construction of water conservancy can be eligible for dividends.

Then, bringing water from the pond into the field can also solve the problem of lack of rain in the summer and drought of farmland in Jiangguo.

In this way, the people can profit from the fish pond and also from their own ridges, so that everyone can be motivated to do it.

This is just the simplest and most preliminary idea. In the future, after continuous attempts, I am afraid that I will have to make a lot of adjustments.

The first thing to consider is the topography of each place.

Zong Yuan's map and Zong Yuan were detained, and Lu Hui ate and drank in the house. When the two discussed the specific way to renovate the pond, they talked so happily that they forgot the time and the people outside.

Among the people outside, there is also Shan Shulin.

He hurried back to the mansion after being busy, and heard that Lu Hui and Zong Yuan were discussing important matters in the study.

Originally, he came from outside, and the dust came back to look for Lu Hui, and he was very tired when he was alone. Therefore, when he heard that Lu Hui had something to do, he went to bathe and wash himself first.

When he did everything well, he still heard Lu Hui in the study. Thinking about it, he simply went back to the main house, covered his head and fell asleep.

He hadn't had a good night's sleep in a long time, and since she was still busy, it was better to see her in the best possible condition.

Who knows, when I woke up, it was getting late, and I called my attendants, and it was still the news that the prince had not left the house.

Only then did Shan Shulin realize that something was wrong.

What could keep her babbling all day?

You know, he came back in the morning, and now it's evening, and she hasn't even been out of the house?

I heard the attendant say that Lu Hui had been in the study for four or five days, and Shan Shulin's face changed.

He didn't have time to change his clothes, so he ran straight to Lu Hui's study.
