It's a good thing, officials have concerns.
A middle-aged official with a long beard said: "It is good for the city and good for the people. We should do our best to carry out errands. However, although the demon retreats, it will come back one day. You must not plan some illusory things."
"Yes, girl. Although diversion of water will benefit our descendants, it is far beyond what I can do. How can we ignore the present?"
"Even though we support the girl's idea, there are demons raging outside, so it's not necessary to kill people inside."
Although the officials did not say it explicitly, they believed that Zhu Qinghong was too ambitious. After this calamity, Haocheng was already damaged. Take the initiative to run outside and deliver food to the monster? No matter how stupid people are, they still cherish life.
The little girl has a good heart, but she is unrealistic.
Wei Xuanyu was silent.
It would be a feat to accomplish, but it would be too difficult. They simply can't make it happen.
"Since I raised the matter, of course there is a way to accomplish it." Zhu Qinghong said calmly, "Su Rui."
"Okay, sister." Su Rui took a step forward with a smile, looked at the ministers and said, "Haicheng has taken refuge in sister, and will definitely protect it. Please make arrangements to build a pavilion in the middle of the city. When it is completed, , is the day when you are no longer afraid of demons."
The officials looked at each other, confused.
A younger official said: "Can you please tell me in detail?"
"I will know by then." Su Rui looked at Wei Xuanyu, "If you want the fields to be protected, you can also build pavilions."
Everyone looked at each other in confusion.
Zhu Qinghong smiled: "There is no rush to divert the water, you can take your time."
Just mention it to them in advance so that you can be mentally prepared. It was imperative to dig river channels to divert water, and she would not allow anyone to hold back.
Zhu Qinghong stood up and left, giving them time to discuss. After returning to the room, she passed a map to Yuanyou.
The route for digging the river is marked on it, allowing him to prepare in advance. After the matters in Haocheng are dealt with, channel construction and canal digging can be carried out at the same time.
main hall.
The officials were busy discussing.
"Disregarding human life for the sake of merit is simply nonsense."
"Military advisor, what does a little girl like her know? If she really pushes the people out to die, how can we live in shame?"
"There's no need to be so disgusted. First build the pavilion as they say. Then we'll see what's going on."
"I agree. If she has the ability to protect our city, it doesn't matter if she writes a letter."
Everyone has the same idea, stop with silence.
It won’t be too late to talk about anything else after the pavilion is built and we know what they want to do.
Building a pavilion was a piece of cake for Haicheng, a city with many craftsmen, and it was not a big deal.
Wei Xuanyu nodded: "Let's do it first."
All officials should step down.
They all exited and went to work.
Wei Xuanyu thought over and over again and ordered people to build a pavilion in the field. He and Su Rui discussed the decoration in the pavilion and made it only a half-person-high stone platform.
The table is concave with a semicircle and has a fixed size.
Zhu Qinghong originally wanted Fang Youan to start clearing the road to the river. He was the only one killing demons, and although the speed was slower, he was making progress.
Su Rui took the time to send the storage device over, so it wouldn't hinder anything. After asking, I found out that they were busy paving roads over there.
The two cities were opened for trading in order to facilitate the movement of cars and horses and to ensure smooth roads. Fill in the potholes, shovel away the mounds of soil blocking the road, and fill them with some pebbles.
Speaking of road construction, Zhu Qinghong clicked on the panel to check. In ancient times, bricks or slabs were often used to build smooth roads.
Is there a brick-making place in Haocheng?
Zhu Qinghong opened the map of Haocheng and searched for brick-burning kilns. There were quite a few.
[Master, why don’t you teach them how to make cement? Ono can help appropriately. 】
"I haven't learned to walk yet, so I want to run." Zhu Qinghong smiled, "Let's not say whether there are raw materials for making cement nearby. Scientific and technological development also needs to be done step by step. Let's wait until the water is brought in and the raw materials are found before we consider cement. Now. Wherever you go, do as the Romans do."
It is not practical to use bricks and slabs to build roads in the wild, and cooked soil is best. After the passages of several cities are completed, the explanation will be continued.
There is still much to do after that.
Divert water, build bridges, pave roads, and expand the cultivated land area of Tianchong City. After the water is brought in, ducks and geese can be raised, and fish can also be considered. Zhu Qinghong sighed. Just thinking about it made him feel that he would be very busy in the future.
Half a month later, Haocheng was restored.
The pavilions in the city and outside the city were built exactly as Su Rui said.
Zhu Qinghong did not show up.
Su Rui personally placed the storage device on the stone platform in the pavilion, and instantly transparent protection enveloped the entire city.
Everyone looked up in disbelief and couldn't hide their excitement. Wei Xuanyu handed over to Su Rui: "Thank you, Miss Su."
"So, do you still think that sister's proposal to divert water is not good?" She smiled slightly, "Do you know what to do?"
The officials bowed their heads and saluted, their hearts surging.
Who doesn’t want to do something big in life?
They risked their lives!
Everyone sat together in the main hall again to discuss the matter of diverting water. Determine routes, dig canals, and build bridges.
As expected, the officials were all outstanding, and they could tell where the bridge was suitable just from the map. But the river never passes through the city, so there are different opinions.
"It is better for the large tributaries to go outside the city. If we want water to enter the city, we can just dig smaller tributaries. There is no need for the river to pass through the city."
"Indeed. We must consider the safety of the people when the water rises. Furthermore, when passing through the city, we need to re-plan the city."
"Why bother. Choose a low-lying place in the city to dig a river channel. Even if the water rises, it won't be a big deal."
"Yes. And our city originally had a river. After repairing it, it can be used again without having to mobilize troops."
The officials quarreled fiercely, each insisting on his own ideas. After several years of drought, the water volume of Haocheng's rivers dropped seriously.
In order to ensure their subsequent survival, they had to divert the river into cultivated land. Zhu Qinghong rested his chin on his hand. No wonder there was a stream over there.
According to its source, the creek is also a tributary of the large river that crosses the Demonic Forest.
For unknown reasons, the amount of water decreases every year.
The problem is that she can still solve it halfway. If the problem is in the forest of demons, there is nothing you can do to help right now.
After arguing and arguing, no conclusion was reached.
Officials with two ideas competed with each other and went back to write various plans and draw construction drawings.
In terms of cost, it is better to use existing river channels.
But the cultivated land in Haocheng is somewhat far away from the previous river.
If the water in the creek dries up, there may be a problem of diverting the river again. Passing outside the city leads directly to farmland. Set off from the other side of the farmland to Lingxi Country.
As a result, the abandoned river channel is very redundant. How to deal with it became a problem.
The plans submitted by both sides have their own merits. It was hard to tell who was better.
Zhu Qinghong read it and said, "How about we use them together?"
"Use them together?" The officials were stunned.
It suddenly dawned on me.
"Yes, we can use them together."
After the water was brought in, it branched out, one inside the city and the other outside the city.
Irrigation outside the city is used daily by people in the city.
The abandoned river channel has been put into use, but there are still many places that need to be repaired. The route map for digging the canal was revised. It was divided into two parts and passed through Haocheng City, and then merged into one after leaving the city.
The plan for digging ditches in Haocheng was thus decided.
However, the three cities of Lingxi Kingdom are still on hold, and there is a high probability that they will quarrel again.
"Second Young Master Wei, please arrange a team of people. They will follow us to Tianchong City in two days." Zhu Qinghong stood up and said, "With useful people."
After that, she left.
Su Rui follows.
Officials are happy to discuss the implementation of the plan and are full of hope for the future.
"Everyone, who wants to go to Tianchong City with me?" Wei Xuanyu asked with a smile.
If no one volunteers, he has no choice but to appoint.
You can hear a pin drop instantly in the room.
It’s not that the officials don’t want to go.
That's right.
There was no protection on the way there.
Since the demon was destroyed that day, no new demon was seen for several days. But in the past two days, I occasionally saw a few monsters wandering around, and I might not know when they would gather in large numbers again.
How dare they run out under such circumstances?
They are powerless.
Seeing the smile on Wei Xuanyu's face slowly disappear, the officials felt bad.
The military advisor will most likely appoint a candidate.
"Actually, it's not impossible to go. Although Tianchong City is good now, in the end, hearing is false and seeing is believing."
"That's right. It would be good to go and have a look. Mr. Tian, Mr. Zhou, I think you two are a good match."
"What..." Mr. Tian and Mr. Zhou blew their beards and stared. What do you mean they are suitable? How are they suitable?
"Yes, it's very suitable. Master Tian and Master Zhou are very talented, so they will be of great use here."
"I'm ashamed of myself. I don't dare to steal the good opportunity from the two adults. I will change the picture and take the first step."
The other officials made their own excuses to leave.
Master Tian and Master Zhou couldn't even shout.
After a while, they were the only two left.
Wei Xuanyu smiled and stepped forward to hold their hands: "Master Tian and Master Zhou are really role models for our generation, and they will definitely achieve great things."
The two of them were stood up and couldn't say no.
At this point, they could only smile and be modest.
After leaving the city lord's mansion, the two of them approached their colleagues and scolded them happily. Seeing that they were about to leave, other officials were very consoling.
Master Tian and Master Zhou did not accept this trick and continued to curse. These people are really worse than each other.
Zhu Qinghong laughed at the farce and shook his head helplessly. Su Rui drank milk tea and watched the projection: "I don't know what they are afraid of."
"The city has been besieged by demons for many years. How could you not be afraid?" Zhu Qinghong turned off the screen. "After you go back, you and Fang You'an first get the passage out. Just after a big battle, the demons did not recover so quickly. You can relax a lot. ."
Su Rui nodded: "I have sent a message to Gao Chen. The officials in charge of building the river are already on their way to Tianchong City."
"Three cities are really difficult to deal with." Zhu Qinghong clicked on the map of the three cities of Lingxi Kingdom.
From the picture, it seems that it is more convenient to take the river route from outside the city. But how to proceed depends on the professionals. Go back to Tianchong City and let the officials from the two cities quarrel.
As for Tianchong City, she decided to go outside the city from the beginning. To go through the cultivated fields to Haocheng, considering the increase in cultivated land area, it may also be necessary to branch off into tributaries.
The direction of the tributaries depends on the location of the farmland, so Zhu Qinghong has to think carefully about the best way to go.
Ono listed several possibilities.
She compared them one by one and it seemed like every one of them was good.
Seeing that Zhu Qinghong was not satisfied, Ono showed new drawings. The scope of cultivated land changes and the tributaries change.
She looked around and had a hard time making a decision.
Let the officials take a look when we get back.
She chooses one that is bigger than the other two. Maybe they will give her some inspiration when they quarrel.
