The more Li You listened, the brighter his eyes became.

If you really do what the emperor just said, maybe not only do you not need to use the money and grain of the imperial court, but also greatly mobilize the enthusiasm of the big clans in the county to build ditches.

The most important thing is that the same canal construction, by the local clans, and by the government, are completely different things, I have to admit that in mobilizing the people, these deep-rooted local clans in the county have a natural advantage.

"I'm afraid they're suspicious?"

Although Li You felt that Zhao Ying's idea was very good, he knew him very well about the local wealthy family in Huiji County, and he still put forward a key point very conservatively.

Zhao Ying smiled and waved his hand.

"When Shang Jun changed the law, he set up a wood outside the south gate as a letter, and the change was completed. If we want to win the trust of others, we naturally have to set an example......"

Speaking of this, Zhao Ying turned his head to look at Zhang Liang, who was sitting at the bottom.

"In the past two days, how many families have come to deliver the post......"

"Back to His Royal Highness, including the Yu family and the Long family, there are a total of seventy-two families before and after......"

Zhao Ying nodded slightly.

"Send someone to post back, just say that I will hold a banquet in the county guard mansion tomorrow night, and after the dinner, three to five of them will be randomly selected among them, and they will be given a chance to communicate privately......"

Zhang Liang promised in a deep voice, got up and bowed his hands slightly to Zhao Ying, as well as Jiang Lu and Li You, sued the crime, and went straight out to arrange.

The emperor's eldest grandson really let people reply to the post!

Everyone couldn't help but be shocked.

They may be hostile to Great Qin in their hearts, or they may simply be hostile to the Emperor Eldest Sun who replaced the First Emperor's southern tour, but they will never give up every bit of kindness that the Emperor Eldest Sun has unleashed on them.

Sometimes the reason for hatred is not the position, nor how much the other party is worthy of hate, but that he can't squeeze into the other party's circle even if he tries his best.

No one dared to despise the banquet of His Royal Highness the Emperor Eldest Sun.

No one dared to step on the point of the banquet, and really didn't come until the evening, so before half the afternoon of the next day, there were already guests coming to the door one after another, especially the Yu family and the Long family, after receiving Zhao Ying's reply, they rushed over early the next afternoon, volunteered to stand at the door, and helped Zhao Ying greet the guests.

For this kind of overture, Zhao Ying did not refuse, but chatted with the people of the Yu family and the Long family for a while in a gentle tone, talked about the Yu family's glass shop, and Yu Ji, and also talked about the current situation of Long Ji.

It made the hearts of the two families more and more hot, and they felt that they had sided with the emperor's eldest grandson.

"Your Highness came from afar, the villains don't dare to say anything else, but in this Huiji realm, our Yu and Long families, there is still a little bit of thin noodles, if you have any small things that are inconvenient for you to do in person, just order them, the villains have nothing to say......"

Long Li, the head of the Long family's generation, is Long Ji's cousin, rough looking, similar to Long He is about seven or eight points, and his muscles and bones are strong, and he knows that he is a person who practices martial arts.

He knew that the relationship between his family and his family could never be compared with the Yu family, so when he saw this, he hurriedly seized the opportunity, bowed to Zhao Yingshen, and took the lead in expressing his position.

Other families don't dare to say how, but their own family, there is a dragon and this relationship, as long as they don't get dizzy, there will be no big problems, at this time, they don't know how to seize the opportunity, they are really stupid.

The head of the Yu family didn't expect Long Li, who had thick eyebrows and big eyes, to be more shameless than him.

also quickly got up to make up for it.

"It's the same with our Yu family! Your Highness, but there is an order, our Yu family will do our best-"

Seeing this, Zhao Ying was overjoyed, got up from the table, strode to the two of them, and helped them up with his own hands.

"The two heads of the family don't have to be polite, it's a blessing for Ying to have two help!"

With this exchange, Zhao Ying had a bottom in his heart, turned his head and signaled Zhang Liang to come up with a specific plan to encourage the major wealthy families in Huiji County to build irrigation ditches.

After the two of them finished reading, Zhao Ying said in a calm tone.

"Who is responsible for the construction, who has the power to fine-tune the layout of these watering ditches, the benefits of this, you should be able to see, I will not repeat it, originally these, you need to compete openly, but the so-called fertilizer water does not flow into the fields of outsiders, I have to take care of our own people first......"

Zhao Ying said, walked to the desk, picked up the brush, and selected two lots on the Huiji ditch construction plan, and gently circled it.

"Most of the land of your two families is in these two directions, if you are interested, I can leave ...... for you alone."

Speaking of this, Zhao Yingyun smiled lightly.

"Of course, it's all voluntary, and if you don't want to, it's okay, I'll give them to someone else......"

Zhao Ying said, and lightly clicked on the lot of the Zhang family and the Zhong family, which were close to the two lots.

"For example, give it to the Zhang family and Zhong ......"

"Your Highness, needless to say, Your Highness's matter is the matter of our Yu family, and our Yu family has taken over this matter!"

The head of the Yu family, who had just taken a step, took the lead in making up his mind this time.

Long Li's eyes flashed, and he made a decision in an instant.

"Thank you for your grace, the Long family will go all out—"

As he spoke, he glanced at Zhao Ying's ditch planning map, and saw that its main road passed through the middle of the fields of the two Yu Long families, and knew that this planning map must be the goodwill released by His Royal Highness the Emperor Eldest Sun to the Yu family and the Long family.

After all, the reason why this highland could not be watered before was entirely because it was separated from the river by a small hill, and if you wanted to bypass the hill, the project would be worth the loss, and you would also need to pass through the fertile fields of the Zhang family and the Zhong family next to it.

On the other hand, the Zhang family and the Zhong family can get to the water source, how can they waste their own fertile land and make wedding dresses for others?

The Long family and the Yu family were not willing to pay such a heavy price.

Therefore, the scale of the land is tens of thousands of acres, and it can only depend on the heavens to eat, whether there is a harvest, and how much the harvest depends on the will of heaven.

Seeing that the two of them were so good, Zhao Ying looked at the eyes of the two again, and became a little closer.

The two of them obviously felt the change in Zhao Ying's mood, and they were immediately greatly encouraged, feeling that even if they lost money in this transaction, it was worth it with the favor of His Royal Highness the Emperor Eldest Sun!

More than 70 of them had already arrived just after mid-afternoon.

Moreover, this group of people seemed to have discussed, and they riveted their gifts one by one, and the things they sent from each family were worth a lot of money, and they obviously put a lot of thought into it.

However, what made Zhao Ying cry and laugh was that in addition to these gifts, many family owners even brought their own daughters.

They are all dressed up dignified and beautiful.

Like a bird, he followed his parents' side, and then his eyes flowed, and he looked at Zhao Ying's side vividly, and there were those who were bold, and they actually used the polite kung fu of their parents and Zhao Ying, and Lianbu came up and talked to Zhao Ying.

Zhao Ying: ......

No, are you misunderstanding me?

My emperor's eldest grandson, not a good woman!

But he couldn't always see other girls, so he told them this, so he could only stand there politely, let the group of women look at him, and smile and nod from time to time.

The handsome appearance, the heroic body, and the gentle smile that always hangs on the face, I can see this group of little girls who are just beginning to bloom, all with peach blossoms in their eyes and spring hearts.

Seeing that the situation seemed to be a little wrong, Zhao Ying hurriedly found a few excuses to slip away.

I'm here to fix the ditch, not the sewer!

What is it like to recruit another group of women back.

Zhao Ying's reaction made the people of the Yu family feel happy in their hearts, and they subconsciously straightened their backs, but many of the family heads present couldn't help but show a trace of regret in their eyes.

Seeing this, Zhao Ying knew this, turned his head and whispered a few words to Xiao Yaosheng, who was waiting beside him, and Xiao Yaosheng suddenly understood and turned around.

After a while, everyone saw two young girls who were beautiful and beautiful in the world, walking in from the outside, like a gentle and clear light coming in, making the whole hall instantly brighten.

Clever smile, beautiful eyes.

For a moment, almost everyone subconsciously remembered such a verse, only to feel that the poem was simply a true portrayal of the two girls in front of them.

The real family is stunning!

With such a beautiful woman by his side, it is no wonder that His Royal Highness the eldest grandson of the emperor is disdainful of his own daughter. Because of the appearance of Xu Cheng and Ah Nu, many young women who originally had some ideas lost their thoughts in an instant.

Have low self esteem.

Feeling unworthy......

"Your Highness, how is it, I didn't disgrace you—"

Taking advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention, Xu Cheng leaned over a little playfully, leaned down slightly, and laughed softly in Zhao Ying's ear.

Exhale like an orchid.

The aroma with the warm smell of a girl made Zhao Ying feel a little strange.

"It's beautiful, it's a national beauty—"

Zhao Ying first praised it very sincerely, and then lowered his voice.

"Why did Miss Xu come over, and she was dressed so amazingly......"

Originally, he just wanted Xiaoyaosheng to call Ah Nu over and support him for the scene, but he also made those girls completely dead. After all, now is not the time to be in Hexi, and it is not necessary to collect it. If you go all the way, recruit all the way, and when you return to Xianyang, I'm afraid you will have to gather a women's army......

Ahem, although there is such a women's army, it seems to be good......

Not bad fart, we're not like that!

Zhao Ying hurriedly threw this thought behind him.

Xu Cheng saw the amazement and appreciation in Zhao Ying's eyes, and couldn't help but feel a little proud in his heart, the corners of his mouth turned up, and his eyebrows and eyes were full of smiles.

"I happened to have tea at the girl's place, so I stopped by and filled the scene for you—it won't affect the good things of His Royal Highness......"

Zhao Ying hurriedly shook his head.

"Impossible, there is no thing, don't talk nonsense, otherwise I will let people call Ah Nu - and Miss Xu......"

Xu Ying stared at Zhao Ying and smiled.

As everyone knows, the interaction between the two at this time, in the eyes of these people in the hall, is clearly the grinding of ears and temples, and the love of concubines. Everyone immediately understood that their daughter was completely hopeless.

That's right when you think about it.

has seen Yu Ji and the two people in front of him, what kind of woman can still enter the eyes of His Royal Highness the Emperor Eldest Sun?

However, everyone lost this thought in their hearts, but their minds became calm, and they lost their wariness of each other just now, and even those young women got together in groups and whispered among their daughters.

It's just that......

Zhao Ying suddenly felt that sometimes hearing too well was also a problem. For example, now, listening to a group of pretty and colorful girls, gossiping about themselves there, is actually very helpless.

The key is that this group of Chudi women is very characteristic of Chudi, and the topics they talk about are romantic and enthusiastic, unrestrained and bold, which makes him, a later generation, feel a little overwhelmed......

It kind of opened his eyes.

Suddenly, I understood why the people in this land could write strange books like "Lisao" and "Tianwen", and they could also say such heroic words as "I am a barbarian".

These are all regional folk customs that are immersed in the bones.

"Your Highness, the banquet has been prepared—"

A steward from the back kitchen came over and bowed down to report, Zhao Ying nodded with a smile, signaling that it was time to serve. When the steward got up to leave, he stretched out his hands and pressed down slightly, and the hall was as if someone had pressed the rest, and it was instantly quiet.

Zhao Ying looked around, stood up, and bowed slightly to everyone.

"There are greetings from the elders of the village, and Ying has no other thanks, so he can only prepare a little wine to show his gratitude——"

"Thank you, Your Highness, for your kindness—"

As soon as Zhao Ying's voice fell, a polite sound sounded in the hall, Zhao Ying nodded with a smile in response, and when everyone's voices fell slightly, he was right.

"All the township sages and elders, are busy with affairs, today to disturb you, invite you here, in addition to expressing my gratitude to you, in fact, there are two things, to discuss with you, one is to charter the local township sages and elders of Huiji County to build water conservancy ditches, and the other is to build fields in the polder lake and encourage agriculture and mulberry affairs......"

Hearing this, everyone couldn't help but feel a pang in their hearts, knowing that the main event was coming.

"Next, I would like to ask Li Junshou to introduce to you the construction of water conservancy ditches......

Seeing that everyone was looking over, Li You beckoned, and suddenly several scribes walked in with a wad of papers, and handed out the relevant terms of the ditch construction that dozens of scribes had copied overnight.

No one spoke, and those who received the Chinese pieces watched intently, secretly thinking about the pros and cons in their hearts, and subconsciously felt that the imperial court wanted to exploit them again.

Zhao Ying's eyes were like torches, sitting on the top position, and he could see almost every subtle expression change on everyone's faces. It wasn't until everyone put down the paper in their hands that they looked around at everyone and smiled.

"All the township sages and elders here are really smart people, can this matter be done, what are the pros and cons, when it can be seen at a glance, now, I can say, there is only one sentence, that is, I Daqin governs the country according to law, words must be believed, deeds must be fruitful, this matter I can in the name of the governor of Jiangnan, for His Majesty promise, this policy, 30 years will not waver, during the period, all the benefits belong to everyone, 30 years later, everyone also has the opportunity to use the ditch to water their own land for free......"

Speaking of this, Zhao Ying smiled indifferently.

"Whether or not to do this is entirely up to you, and I hereby promise that I will not force it—but if you want to take the initiative to do this, you need to be prepared in your hearts, we will be in the twenty-six counties, and we will only select the twenty-six most respected and capable families from among you to coordinate this matter......"
