After a period of unremitting efforts, the breach of the levee was temporarily blocked, and the drainage work was almost complete.

Submerged houses, farmland are exposed!

Although it is a little miserable, it is my own home.

Pack up well, it's still habitable.

Anyway, it's better than sleeping on the streets, right?

"Father, don't say it, these officials have done quite enough on the surface!"

Ying Feiyu, Ying Zheng and others would patrol the city every day, and from afar, they could see the newly transferred officials helping the people to work together.

It's covered in dust and sludge, but I don't care at all!

After these officials were transferred, they were immediately divided into groups, and some of them led people to dig ditches and drain water.

Some helped people restore their homes.

A few others are busy building dikes.

In short, there is no one idle!

"Humph! Who knows what it will be like when we're gone! ”

Ying Zheng snorted coldly.

"Your Majesty, someone from the inn sent a message, saying that there is another important message!"

A soldier ran over and gave his hand to play.

"Oh? What's the message? ”

Ying Zheng raised his eyebrows and asked in a deep voice.

"The innkeeper said that one day Xiao Er was too busy, and accidentally bumped into one of the suspicious young people, and while Xiao Er squatted down and hurriedly packed up his things, he raised his head to apologize to them, and inadvertently, he caught a glimpse of one of them, with a very long scar on his cheek!"

"Scars?"

"That's right!"

"Do you know if it's left or right?"

"I don't know this, I heard that after those people found out that Xiao Er was looking at themselves, they hurriedly turned their heads and went out, and Xiao Er only saw this one glance!"

The guards told all the information.

"Hmmm! Come on! I know! ”

Ying Zheng responded and waved his hand.

"Alas......! This information alone is still useless, it is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack! ”

"Yes! There are too many young people with scars on their faces, and the key Xiao Er can't tell the shape, size and specific location of the scars, so how can we find them? You can't catch all the scars on your face, can you? ”

Zhang Han and Wang Ben shook their heads helplessly.

"Okay, let's put this matter here first, if you can't keep it in the future, the shopkeeper will think of any clues, and then check it again!"

Ying Zheng didn't want to make too much noise now, so as not to startle the snake, but alarmed the people who did the dam.

If they stop there, the matter will be over!

If they are still thinking about agitating the people, then they will inevitably do other things, and when the time comes, they will inevitably show their feet, and it will not be too late to capture them all together!

"Hmmm! That's good! ”

Several ministers nodded slightly, and that could only be the case.

"Now that the flood waters have receded, people are back to their homes! Let's hope it doesn't happen again! ”

Ying Zheng put his hands behind his back, looked at the victims, and said with emotion.

"Father, there is a lot of water in the south, do you often suffer from floods?"

Ying Feiyu raised her little head and asked.

"Of course, if there is a drought, the crop will not be reduced, and if there is frequent rain like this year, not to mention flooding, the grain harvest will also be drastically reduced!"

Ying Zheng shook his head helplessly.

"Father, the son has a plan, maybe he can solve the flood ...... in the south!"

Ying Feiyu spoke slowly, but then seemed to have some concerns, "It's just that it will take more time and money!" ”

"Say it! My Daqin is thriving, and money is no longer the biggest problem! ”

Hearing this, Ying Zheng couldn't wait to ask.

The ministers were the same, blinking their eyes and waiting for Xiao Zhengtai's next words.

"Father, what was the practice of the imperial court in the past when there were floods in the south?"

However, Ying Feiyu did not answer the rhetorical question.

"Of course, it's like this, opening warehouses and releasing grain to relieve the victims!"

The ministers replied without hesitation.

"I guess it's a lot of money every time, right?"

"That's for sure!"

"Although Prince Ben's method costs a lot of money, it is also a one-and-done method that can completely solve the floods in the south!"

"Okay, don't sell your kid, if you have any way, just say it!"

Ying Zheng and the others were a little impatient.

"South-to-North Water Diversion!"

Xiao Zhengtai said these four words loudly.

"South-to-North Water Diversion? What does this mean? ”

The ministers were full of suspicion and puzzled.

"It's literal, transfer all the water from the south to the north!"

Ying Feiyu opened his mouth with a calm expression.

"Humph! Are you kidding us? If I had that ability, I would have become an immortal, and I would still use it here to worry about the floods in the south of the Yangtze River? ”

Ying Zheng snorted coldly, thinking that this kid was teasing them, and he was immediately unhappy.

"Father, what the sons said is true! It's not that only immortals can transfer water! ”

Ying Feiyu's face was full of seriousness.

"Good! Then you kid will tell me, how should this water be adjusted? ”

It can be seen that Yingzheng is really a little impatient at this time, and he completely thinks that this kid is playing him.

But if what he says is unreliable, he has to brush his sleeves and go!

The attitude of the other ministers is similar, and the old faces are full of disbelief!

They don't have an immortal master, how can they divert water from the south to the north?

"It's not simple, as long as a giant reservoir is built in the south, and all the rivers that are prone to flooding are channeled into the reservoir and stored, so that the chance of flooding in the south will be greatly reduced......!"

"Humph! Be! There are fewer floods, but what about the water that can be stored? Accumulated a lot, isn't it the same to break down? There will be even bigger floods! ”

Before Ying Feiyu finished speaking, Ying Zheng interjected with a cold face.

"Father, you should listen to your son's words first!"

"Okay, you say!"

Ying Zheng glanced at him, and didn't seem to be interested in listening to it anymore.

Thinking that his childish nature had been committed again, he began to mess around.

"In addition to the huge reservoir, a large canal will be built, which runs through the north and south, which can not only divert water from the south to the north and alleviate the drought in the north, but also can be used for boats and passenger ships!"

"Sizzle......"

As soon as Ying Feiyu's words fell, everyone suddenly gasped.

Everyone present looked at him with shocked eyes!

This may sound like a nonsense idea at first glance, but the more you listen to it, the more reasonable it becomes!

Storing water in the south to solve the flood.

Then through the canal, it can be led to the north where there is little rain, and the drought in the north can also be solved.

Let the rain from the north and south be reconciled, and you can get a bumper harvest!

At the same time, there is also an additional river that leads directly to the north and south, which is extremely convenient for carrying passengers and goods!

Now that the railway is not fully connected, it is good to have a canal!

It's a triple win!
