In mid-to-late April, late spring and early summer, the Dragon Boat Festival is approaching, and there is already a festive atmosphere in the Dingjiang camp, and the peaches and apricots that have just ripen have also been added to the recipe of the working meal.

The plan to dig the lake has been progressed by 12/12, and for this reason, Fang Haoze also specially mobilized 10,000 migrant workers through the Chamber of Commerce in Guanle.

This month, due to the progress of the foundation laid by the bamboo cage fill, the construction of the embankment has been accelerated more and more, and it has advanced more than 200 meters from the shore.

Don't underestimate these two hundred meters, it was built by tens of thousands of migrant workers day and night.

Not to mention the consumption of bamboo cage filling stone to the long bamboo in the south, it is the 200-meter embankment, which is the best bluestone in Ningzhou in the north, which is stronger, and the embankment made of it can carry the flood season of the Dingjiang River.

Because of Fang Haoze's requirements for construction skills and project quality, all kinds of construction materials must be the best, even if it is a 200-meter embankment, the cost is expensive.

According to the calculations of the relevant officials in the camp, since the construction period has been one month now, the bluestone mining of the embankment alone has cost 200,000 taels of silver.

According to the length of the Dingjiang River, which is more than 10 miles, the total budget for the construction of the Dingjiang embankment has exceeded 10 million taels.

This is only a part of the Dingjiang water control project, including all the construction projects including the excavation of lakes and the construction of new rivers, the summary of Dingjiang water control has reached a staggering 50 million taels.

After calculating this number, Fang Haoze immediately asked the people in the Ministry of Industry to keep it a secret for the time being. Without him, the data is too appalling, you know, in the world of Daxin, the annual expenditure of a family of three is only ten taels of silver.

In such a comparison, 50 million taels of silver almost consumed the entire imperial court's deposits, how can it not be staggering?

Fortunately, at present, Fang Haoze does not have to worry about the silver, and the silver taels integrated from Wuzhou's private resources in his hand have reached about five million, which is enough to be used within the year.

However, in this way, the construction period of the Dingjiang River will reach 10 years, and the number of migrant workers will snowball, and the strength of the whole country will eventually be gathered.

Because of this, when Fang Haoze reported the total budget for water control to the Seventh Prince, the other party was silent for a long time, and then wrote to the emperor as soon as possible and reported the core data.

Although the accurate data was not issued, the well-intentioned people in the court also jumped up and down behind their backs.

The old subordinates of the eldest prince gathered behind a new prince, and on the grounds that the national power consumed too much to control the water, they continued to attack and annihilate the other party Haoze and others.

They will present the data collected by various means, and even estimate that tens of millions of taels are in the total budget.

In the face of detailed data, grassroots officials and people above the ground were rarely silent.

But there is no turning back from the bow, Fang Haoze has no way to retreat now, so he can only grit his teeth and persist and push forward this water control project step by step.

Fortunately, among the many bad news, there has been no debt collection by the gentry of Wuzhou, so that the construction can continue continuously.

The camp is less than ten miles away, a half-dug tidal flat, a deep pit faintly with scale, not migrant workers digging in the sun shirtless, from time to time someone carrying the soil to pass by.

"Lord Fang, according to the plan, by the end of this month, the lake will begin to take shape, and it will be able to hold hundreds of thousands of cubic meters of water, which will greatly relieve the pressure on the upstream of the Dingjiang embankment. A Ministry of Industry official said.

Beside him was the young water control inspector Fang Haoze.

"The construction period is going smoothly, next month is the rainy season, according to the law of thousands of years, it is the flood season of Dingjiang, to be completed before the end of the month, can accommodate hundreds of thousands of cubic meters of water, although the impact on the overall situation is minimal, but it is also a help. ”

Fang Haoze nodded, although the excavation of the lake was only carried out to one-tenth of the time, but the preparations for the initial start of construction were too time-consuming, and now they are at full speed, and they will be much faster before the end of the month.

Of course, although this lake plays a major role, it is only to protect this section of the Dingjiang River from bursting the embankment, the rainy season is approaching, and the Dingjiang flood is coming, it is bound to be not a small lake that can be accommodated.

"My lord, now that the water speed in the upper reaches is getting slower and slower, and the pressure on the river bank is already very great, can the construction of the embankment be postponed for a while?

After the Ministry of Industry official finished reporting the data, he continued.

"The flood is coming, and if the levee is built a few hundred meters further into the middle of the river, there is a danger that the levee will break as the water arrives. ”

"Let's continue to build, the Dingjiang River is ten miles wide, less than a mile, and it doesn't have that much impact. Fang Haoze shook his head in denial.

"Now the whole country is staring at our construction site, and if we show the slightest hesitation, the voices against water control will be twisted into a single force, and we will be crushed to death. ”

In fact, he also felt a little tired, not to mention that he had to spend divine power every day to extract the breath of the artifact to make a long bamboo cage, those water god messengers that he occasionally saw in the river always made Fang Haoze feel uneasy.

Especially in the next month, when the Dingjiang Water God can contact the ordinary people again, there will definitely be a lot of news from the human world to the divine kingdom of the water god.

At that time, Fang Haoze had to face pressure from several aspects, if he couldn't handle it well, it could be seen that this huge project would face the danger of being unfinished.

Besides, the Ministry of Works official got the order, so he nodded solemnly.

Although these days in the Dingjiang camp are short, Fang Haoze has established a supreme authority, even if the Seven Princes are now in the camp, the migrant workers and officials of the Ministry of Industry here will only look forward to Fang Haoze.

"Okay, you can continue to supervise here, I'll go back to Dingjiang first. After another inspection, Fang Haoze said to the official.

Under Mingyun's service, he got into a carriage and walked away.

Now, a temporary road has been built in Dingjiang and this construction site, and the horse-drawn carriages are moving quickly on it, and they will come to the main camp by the Dingjiang River again after a while.

This journey took less than a stick of incense.

Before he got out of the car, Fang Haoze's eyes suddenly narrowed, his face turned cold, and he suddenly ordered: "Stop." ”

Mingyun, who was driving the carriage, didn't know what was going on for a while, and immediately stopped the carriage. He felt that his son's attitude was wrong, and he also mobilized his strength, and asked in a low voice: "Childe, but what is going on in the dark?"

Fang Haoze didn't answer, something in his arms was beating at this time, it was the water basin that he had obtained by killing the water god sacrifice in the camp.

At this time, the palm-sized object was hot at this time, and the huge impact force almost broke through the air.

That is, a fourth-order demigod like Fang Haoze can suppress this water basin.

In his divine eyes, the divine power of the water god in this water basin was very strong, and it faintly echoed a nearby place. Fang Haoze amplified his spiritual power through the Shenge Jade Plate, and in the east a mile away around him, there was a powerful force watching him.

Closing her eyes, it was an old woman in a turquoise robe.
