Uncle Hong Lou Rong

Chapter 76 Lin Daiyu Goes to Yangzhou
The river water was drawn from the dam through the canal, and Brother Rong's feet covered with mud went down the canal.When it flows through the hole next to the canal, a stream spreads down the field.

There is also a small channel about one foot wide between the fields, corresponding to all the fields on the left and right.

King Zhongshun explained: "It's winter now, and it's time for water shortages. The dams and canals built can divert water to the fields. Naturally, it will not be a problem when there is abundant rain in spring, summer and autumn."

Emperor Xian De nodded, ignored the kneeling officials, stepped forward, and asked Brother Rong again: "What were you doing in the field just now?"

"The minister just went to the field and dug the water inlets of all the fields on purpose so that the water in this small canal can flow into the field. Even if the mouths of these two canals are fully opened, the water in the canals will not be exhausted." Brother Rong replied the emperor's words, but out of the corner of his eye, he saw that the official who was kneeling on the ground had quietly got up at some point, and now that person acted as if nothing had happened.

This son of a bitch.When did the Jia family offend you?Brother Rong cursed in his heart, and when he opened his mouth, he was bullying the king and putting a big hat on me.

Brother Rong met the man's eyes, but the man's expression remained unchanged.On the contrary, he questioned: "The cold fields don't need water. What's the use of spending money and effort to make such a thing? If it comes to the rainy season and encounters a flood, these dams and ditches will only increase the power of the flood. Zhongshun Wang's mansion This manor field is going to turn into an ocean."

He looked at this guy who was at least five or sixty years old. Could it be that the older he gets, the more stubborn he becomes?It's still his mother, she just came here to find fault.

"This master's concern is not unreasonable, so before ordering the craftsmen to build dams and canals, I specially consulted many craftsmen from the Ministry of Industry." Brother Rong saluted the old man slightly, and then spoke with Emperor Xiande and other officials. Said: "Everyone will know when they get to the dam."

The river outside the manor is only three or four feet wide, and the dam is already full of water.Everyone compared and saw that the dam was built at least five or six feet high.The water in the river flows down from the two gaps in the middle of the dam, continuously.

The only strange thing is that a strange deep ditch was built on one side of the dam, and the side was reinforced with stone cement.The connection between the canals used for field irrigation and the dam is even more curved.

Emperor Xiande curiously pointed to the place where the canal and the dam meet, this area is actually lower than other places, and asked: "What does this mean?"

Brother Rong replied: "This is built to solve the flood that the master just mentioned. The deep canal next to the dam was built to prevent floods in warm spring and rainy seasons in summer and autumn. As long as the water stored in the dam reaches A certain amount, after the water level rises, the water will flow down through the flood outlet. The several-foot-wide canal next to it is not only used for irrigation, but also can be used to reduce the pressure of the water flow in the river during the rainy season.”

Brother Rong smiled in his heart. It can be said that he had spent a lot of thought on this dam. He not only took the irrigation of the manor into consideration, but also thought of floods in the rainy season and other issues.

In fact, there is no need for this, the royal lands are all good fertile land, and it is very difficult to encounter floods.However, he still made them all one by one. Although more materials were used and more time was spent, it was worth it.Not only can relying on this dam reduce the risk of disasters in the downstream, but it can also make a good stay with King Zhongshun.

Now that the emperor has come in person, of course he has to tell the truth, he can't just do good deeds without leaving his name.

What a clever little man he is.

Emperor Xian De was very satisfied with this matter, he nodded with a light smile, and said to Zhong Shun Wang: "I never thought that a few months ago there would be a commotion, and Shisan would find a competent future."

Zhongshun Wang said: "It will take time to verify."

"No need." Emperor Xian De shook his head.

"..."

Brother Rong couldn't understand what kind of charades these two elders were playing.Then King Zhongshun asked the people in the village to drain the water in the dam, and found a few warriors, each with axes and hammers in their hands.Use the most primitive means to test the firmness of the dam.

Prodigal son!

A bunch of prodigal sons.

Jia Rong looked heartbroken, if they smashed the dam just in case.Wouldn't this hard work for a month be in vain?
When the hammer fell and hit the dam, it also seemed to hit Brother Rong's heart.He looked towards King Zhongshun, only to find that the prince did not change his face, with an extremely confident look.

Brother Rong didn't say anything in the end!
Fortunately, this group of wrestlers gave up after one hit.Only a few marks remained on the dam, which was not damaged.Brother Rong felt relieved. Fortunately, he and King Zhongshun personally supervised this time, and did not let the people who did things steal and play tricks.

Otherwise, it would be turned into a bean curd project and lose face in front of the emperor, which would be a really serious crime.

All the officials were amazed when they saw it, and even the old official who found fault in front didn't say anything.Just asking about the cost of the project here, Jia Rong directly took the account book recording the expenses in various places and sent it to the emperor.

"Good!" The emperor read the account book, left such a word, and led all the officials back.

Brother Rong looked at King Zhongshun suspiciously, this...is there no reward at all?It's too stingy.

King Zhongshun was very dissatisfied with Jia Rong's eyes, and snorted, "The cement belongs to your Ningguo Mansion. In the future, you will have a lot of money in your account. What reward do you want?"

Well, no reward, no reward.I admit it!Jia Rong pouted, bowed to King Zhongshun, and said, "I still have something to do in the mansion, so I won't bother you anymore."

This realistic bastard kid.King Zhongshun was so angry that he really wanted to ask him to get the gold-edged jade plaque back.He said angrily, "Get out of here."

Jia Rong grinned and walked halfway, scratching the back of her head.Absolutely something is wrong. When I came here, I came in a horse-drawn carriage from the palace. When I go back... do I have to walk back by myself?
He immediately ran back, approached King Zhongshun and said, "Master Qiantui, can I borrow a car from you?"

"How can you borrow a car from the Prince's Mansion at will?" King Zhongshun glared at him, then suddenly remembered something, and called Chang Shi over. "Go to the racecourse and find a horse for this bastard, and let him ride back."

Chang Shi was stunned on the spot, and whispered: "Master Shisan, the only BMWs on this racecourse are all rewards from today."

King Zhongshun glanced at Jia Rong sideways, and said politely: "Send him off, now that I have trouble with my legs and feet, it's time for the horse to change owners."

"This……"

Jia Rong has no research on horses, and she doesn't know the name of the horse brought by Chang Shi.It's just that it's not bad when you look at it, the fur is shiny and shiny, and you can tell it's not an ordinary horse at a glance.

"Thank you, Lord Changshi. I will personally send this horse to the palace tomorrow."

"Don't dare to trouble the lord. The thirteenth lord has ordered that this BMW will belong to the lord." Chang Shi twitched his lips, his attitude was many times better than before.

Although Jia Rong felt a little strange in her heart, she didn't think about it.

After returning to the mansion, I realized that Jia Lian and Lin Daiyu had already set off for Yangzhou at noon.However, Lai Sheng took a post to Uncle Rong with a strange expression, and said, "It was sent by the young master of Captain Qiu's family. I invite you to meet me at Wanhualou tomorrow."
