In the seventy-second year of Emperor Tao's reign in the Tang Dynasty, at the beginning of summer, everything began to grow.
The crickets chirp, the earthworms come out, the melons grow, and the bitter herbs show.
The people of the Shang tribe moved very quickly. After the first cell was cleared, they quickly started planting grains. Yuzai also made a huge contribution in this process. He took two little yellow chickens and set fire everywhere to eliminate the problem. Water vapor, thus gaining the support of the Shang tribe people.
Thanks to Yuzai's help, it was not too late to dare to plant rice during Grain Rain. After all, the latest time to sow rice was during the Grain Rain period, and the transformation of the first cell was of great importance to the people of the Shang tribe. If If we can harvest beautiful rice in four or five months, then the entire Meng Zhuze will turn from a disaster into a huge wealth for everyone.
Yuzai told them that water conservancy facilities must be built. The anger of the Yellow River is terrible. The farther back in ancient times, the more powerful the Yellow River becomes. With a slight shake of its head, thousands of miles of earth will turn into ashes. Zeguo, even gods and men would avoid it in fear.
Yu Zai: "According to the normal speed of passage of time, it will take a long time to normalize the silted soil. Therefore, drainage and swamp control is a big project that cannot be completed overnight. You must be patient."
"Now is the rainy season. The warming of the world will slow down the progress of drainage. In summer and autumn, areas close to large rivers and lakes are most prone to floods, so the work of blocking water should be done first before the work of drainage. Ditches should be opened. Digging cannot be stopped. Although it will consume one to two years of labor and reduce the number of farmers on the land, if it is completed, it will at least be beneficial for a hundred years."
You can see the results of the governance in Yuzai. This governance was not only nearly forty years earlier than Dayu's governance in the original history, but it was also more comprehensive than Dayu's governance method, with more manpower and a better environment. Well, the progress is also faster.
This governance will definitely have a major impact on the future, but Yu Zai feels very satisfied.
I came here just to change something.
Like...shooting a spectacle?
Then take another shot!
One day, you will leave behind the wonders you have photographed all over the mountains and seas!
Now, no one in the Shang tribe is willing to listen to what Yu Zai says. They obey Yu Zai's command more firmly than they obey the words of their own leader. Xiang Tu and the others are not angry about this, because they Understand that in the professional field of land and water management, they are really not as good as the young people in front of them.
Sometimes Prime Minister is just having fun. He exchanged a few baskets of local eggs for such an awesome person, and he also helped to make a plan to increase production for a hundred years. A simple decision to ask has affected the tribe for hundreds of years!
Xiangtu felt that he must have stepped on dog poop when he was going out. Otherwise, how could he have such good luck?
But I have to admit that luck is also a part of strength!
It was really wonderful that Bulbasaur entered the wonderful house and ate the wonderful crispy corner!
The first thunderstorm came, and he ran away quickly, waving his sleeves and taking away all the clouds.
With the moisture of rain, the grains grew rapidly, and the drainage ditches diverted water and rainwater into the irrigation canal system. The people of the Shang tribe watched the changes in the grains every day at a speed almost visible to the naked eye, and came to help. , the people of other tribes were also very envious when they saw such changes.
Xiangtu then assured them that all the cell improvement methods would be taught to them. The people close to Daze can enjoy the benefits of clearing swamps, while the people not close to Daze can also benefit from the benefits of clearing swamps from the edges of various water veins. , build ditches to nourish their own land.
Xiu and Hongchao were fishing at work. Xiu took the time to say to Hongchao: "The leader's method of controlling water is something I have never seen before. Even before, when I was in the Gonggong clan, I had never seen this kind of method." An effective method. My father, relying on his physical strength, always liked to move mountains to block the water, or he would use manpower to build some water control facilities that were of little use, or he would use his whims to create some water control facilities that were of little use, but the results were often not very good."
Hongchao also agreed, thinking that Ruzai is a person. Although archery is very fascinating, but water control, at least according to the experience of Hongchao and Xiu, especially Xiu, Xiu said that even his father Gonggong was not as good as Ruzai, so he should be the best in the world. Among them, no one can control water better than him.
Of course, this was expected. In the south, they had heard that Chongbo was full of praise for Sunzai's water control method and felt inferior to him. However, Gonggong and Chongbo's water control skills were only on par with each other. Just in between.
Before the solar term of Lixia was about to end, a reply came from the Central Plains. A letter was sent. The Emperor of Heaven encouraged the pioneering spirit of the Shang tribe people and expressed that he would insist on expanding this strategic location and see more long-term things. .
For example, it can grow vegetables.
The emperor expressed great concern about this point, and even said fervently that the Shang tribe area has huge potential for transformation and huge available space. Facing the increasingly severe mountain and sea situation, an effective strategic location and a huge emerging grain production area are of great benefit to the Central Plains. The help is undoubtedly huge.
The people of the Shang tribe actively learned the guiding spirit passed down by Tao Tang, and then...
There were more and more people coming and going. An old man put on makeup that even a ghost could not recognize. At the end of this Beginning of Summer, he came to Shangqiu with the letter from the Central Plains.
He walked past the first cell and saw the following cells that were being renovated. Then he looked at the cells in the distance that had just been planned but had not yet been renovated.
That was simply a process of reverse evolution. The old man's mood at this time was the same as that of Xiu and others. He had never seen such a powerful water control method, compared to the "water repellent method" proposed by the boy named Si Wenming. , this management method of turning a disaster place into fertile soil thousands of miles away is obviously more in line with the old man's inner thoughts.
There is no land in the world that cannot be used.
The old man thought for a while and thought that among the people he knew, there might be only one person who had this ability... But if it was really that person, then some of the things he had thought in the past, such as that he was still young and not experienced enough Thinking like this is a slap in the face.
At the same time, Yu Zai was preparing to leave. There were many tools in the south in the Central Plains, so there was no need to go around making tools for them like in Huainan. When the people of the Shang tribe heard that Yu Zai was leaving, they all came to see him off.
"This is the kind of person who wins the hearts of the people in the world, Azai you..."
"shut up!"
Chonghua's praise was stopped by Yuzai. He could only look up at the sky melancholy and continue to praise Huangdi's virtues.
So, will the praise of virtue disappear?
No, it will only be transferred.
The people of the Shang tribe sang music from the Emperor Ku era:
"The boat is sailing forward, and the horses and rivers follow each other! The eight winds return, and the Phoenix Emperor sings!"
This is the "Song of the Tang Dynasty", one of the pieces of music composed by Emperor Ku in the Tang Dynasty (the fiefdom of Yao granted by Emperor Zhi). The simple meaning is:
[Wandering around the sacrificial place, birds like Cang Geng follow and fly, the eight winds linger here, and the Phoenix Emperor's voice brings harmony to the people! 】
There are two interpretations of the word "鬶鬶", one is the nine-headed bird, and the other is Cang Geng. However, in "The Song of the Tang Dynasty", the Phoenix Emperor who represents the auspicious virtue appears, so the "鬶鬶" refers to Cang Geng, and Cang Geng Geng is the yellow warbler.
In ancient times, the yellow warbler represented spring and life.
The people of the Shang tribe believed that this song was the best interpretation for Yu Zai. Yu Zai came to the Fire God Platform to offer sacrifices and brought endless vitality to Meng Zhuze, so the eight winds stopped and the people Everyone cheered and sang!
Then, the Shang tribe began to sing another piece of music they had heard during this period.
It was "Song of Prosperous Years". Yuzai was surprised after hearing it, because this song was sung by Chifang clan. How could people in the Central Plains know about it?
People from the Shang tribe told Yu Zai that not long ago, Master Qi came back once. He said that they were songs he heard in the south and thought they were full of the vicissitudes of time.
They left, but the voices of the Shang tribe people still echoed between heaven and earth. The old man also heard it. He hummed for a while before he suddenly came to his senses.
Now that those people are gone, why is it necessary for me to wear makeup?
Emperor Yao went to the improved land, to the earth-rock dam, to the drainage ditch, to touch the green rice, rocks, soil...
His hand touched it lightly, and music and wind rang out between heaven and earth.
Ballads are tunes that ancient ancestors used to express their spirit and emotions. Every word in them is probably a hope that is spread to future generations.
