Mythic version of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 1297 Not in the same band

However, for Li Shu, the amount of work required to transform the five major grain-producing areas is already so terrifying, and the amount of water required for such a construction is not generally large.

That being the case, why not consider the construction of the water conservancy network as a whole, integrate the planning, and carry out the construction with the Grand Canal as the core. Anyway, the project volume is already large enough, and there is no need to worry about whether it will become more.

For mortals with more than a million people, there is actually not much difference between the engineering volume of 25 years and the engineering volume of 30 years. If they are integrated and constructed together, the involved water veins can also be connected and integrated to form an internal flooding river. Network, completely solve the water network problem in several states in the Central Plains.

The blueprint that Li Shu hung up for everyone at the scene stunned everyone, but the amount of the project was simply too terrifying. It was so scary that Chen Xi felt a little dizzy. This was not a canal construction plan at all, but a northern agricultural transformation plan.

Li Shu explained all his plans, and everyone present was a little confused. The blueprint was a bit big, and from Li Shu's meticulous planning, everyone could feel the feasibility of this plan, but this plan too big.

"On the whole, that's it. Based on the current executive power under the rule of Xuande Gong, the investment of people in the slack time, and the overall planning and split construction, according to my calculations, the main construction should be completed in 30 years." After Li Shu put down the entire plan, he looked at everyone present and said, with a slightly conceited expression.

Jia Xu, Li You and others immediately began to estimate the effect of the water conservancy network after it was completed, Lu Su began to calculate the approximate investment required once the construction started, and Xun Yue frowned and began to think about its input and output. Variety.

Li Shu's plan clearly has the traces of several generations. It may be regarded as the wisdom of several generations of the Li family. Even with the wisdom of Jia Xu and others, it is absolutely difficult to pick out glitches in a short time.

"I can't pass this plan." But it didn't take that long for Chen Xi to directly veto the plan.

"Why?" Li Shu, who was originally a little conceited, was obviously dissatisfied at this time, and asked Chen Xi back.

"Have you made an overall assessment of how many rivers this canal needs to pass through according to your construction?" Chen Xi didn't care about Li Shu's expression. In theory, everything seems to be fine, but in practice, it's impossible. good result.

"More than two hundred." Li Shu answered almost without a pause. It can be seen that their family has indeed done a lot of research in this area.

"Well, let's put it this way, do you have data on the annual rainfall in the five major grain-producing areas?" Chen Xi asked another question, "Do you have data on the actual rainwater demand per mu?"

"Not really." Li Shu said bluntly.

"Then have you calculated the amount of water required for the construction of your water conservancy network, and have you calculated the amount of water taken from the river along the way?" Chen Xi smiled and said, this project is not suitable for this era, it is too big, and if it is completed, it will be better than the south-to-north water diversion on the east line Also exaggerated.

"There is no accurate data." Li Shu said with a slight frown.

"Have you done any research on the impact of the large-scale river diversion on the climate?" Chen Xi looked at Li Shu still calmly.

"In this case, there is a part about the impact of the diversion of the Yellow River and the Yangtze River on the climate of the two places." After thinking about it, Li Shulue said that his family did have some relevant materials, although they basically didn't pay attention to this aspect.

"Then, what do you think will be the impact on the five major grain-producing areas and Yangzhou if you build it like this?" Chen Xi sighed and said, sometimes in ancient times, they really liked to record things that were meaningless to them, but would be of great research value to future generations. matter.

Li Shu was silent. After a long time, he looked at Chen Xi and asked, "What Chen Hou means is that building a water conservancy network in this way will not only have no benefits but also disadvantages? Will it lead to local climate change?"

"Well, I have the annual precipitation records of the five major grain-producing areas, as well as the hydrological changes of the local rivers. Generally speaking, the five major grain-producing areas are not short of water. It's just a matter of planning." Chen Xi nodded and said.

This is also the reason why Chen Xi's spiritual talent is so effective. It is because there is no shortage of water in general. Chen Xi's spiritual talent just rearranges the time of rain and sunshine, which can make the year a good one.

If this is a place like Taklamakan where the rainfall is only a little bit, even if Chen Xi wants to rain, he still needs to drag the rain clouds from other places. Otherwise, it is basically meaningless to rely on rearranging the rain and sunshine time.

This is also the reason why Chen Xi consumes less mental energy in these places. After all, there is no need to travel across mountains and rivers to carry rain clouds, and only need to carry out basic deployment.

"Such a reason is actually a reason to reject our Li family?" Li Shu reprimanded.

"..." Chen Xi rolled his eyes, "I think your Li family should go and verify it, and the amount of work is not suitable."

"How can we not do such a thing that lasts for thousands of years just because the project is huge? Don't you hear that the nine-story tower started at the end!" Li Shu looked at Chen Xi angrily, and even showed contempt for Chen Xi in his eyes .

"The problem is that your project has too many disadvantages. I really want to build five major grain-producing areas, and I really want to build a water conservancy network, but it's not like this. The construction of the Grand Canal is essentially for me to strengthen North-South contact." Chen Xi shrugged and said.

"As for passing through the five major grain-producing areas, everyone here probably knows the reason. The canal will eventually merge into the Yellow River in the west, and finally enter Chang'an." Chen Xi explained plainly.

The huge sideways "person" on the map happens to wrap the grain production areas of the Central Plains inside, which is of great significance to the central government's rule.

In addition, after the establishment of the Grand Canal, except for Liangzhou and Yizhou, other states can basically transport troops quickly by water. The simultaneous operation of land and water is of great significance for the rule. Currently, these places belong to the basic territory of the dynasty. , then it is of great significance to build a piece!
Therefore, whether it is to strengthen the central government or to communicate between the north and the south, the canal needs to be built. There is no doubt about it, but it is obvious that the Li family misunderstood Chen Xi's point of view. In his view, the ultimate meaning of the Grand Canal has become Connected to the Wuzhou Water Conservancy Network!

This is not Chen Xi's goal. The five-state water conservancy network should indeed be built, but if this water conservancy network is not based on the internal water veins of the five states, but based on the Yangtze River, the Yellow River, the Huai River, and the Haihe River, then the construction will be successful in the end, really. Potentially a disaster.

　Leave me the monthly pass for tomorrow. I will open a chapter to ask for tickets at night. I want to compete for the ranking. I heard that there will be an event on the [-]th. I want to explode the update...

And if you can't vote for me, you can vote for Yaoli. I don't know how Yaoli is doing now...
