I did evil in the feudal land, but I was called a virtuous king

"Tell the supervisors on the front line that when you encounter sabotage, you don't have to beat them up and ask them to pay the bill and let them go."

"But the workers are gone, the progress of the water conservancy project..." Tian Qi looked puzzled.

"I've recruited workers in surrounding counties, and there will be a large number of workers filling their vacancies soon."

These days, Li An has already asked Liu Qing to go to the surrounding counties to arrange job recruitment, because it is difficult to complete the construction within the stipulated time with only Qingshui, which has less than [-] people.

Seeing that Li An had already thought of a countermeasure, Tian Qi gave Li An an admiring look.

The prince seems to have nothing to do every day, he only eats, drinks, and indulges in beauty, but he has already planned the future step by step.

If such a person becomes the king of Dahua in the future, why should Dahua not be prosperous?

……

Early the next morning, many supervisors at the construction site gathered the people who had been passive and sabotaged recently.

"You guys, take your money and get out." The supervisor said coldly.

"Ah?" Everyone was stunned. When they first came here, they wanted to go back all the time. Many people even chose to sneak away in the dark, but they couldn't make it.

But let them go now, 1 of them are unwilling. Although all the work here is physical work, the treatment is really good.

These farmers have nothing else but a whole body of labor.

"My lord, why did you drive us away?" A commoner asked tentatively.

"Because of your inactivity, you were fired."

After the supervisor finished speaking, he looked at the other people who were watching the excitement: "Listen well, the prince has already ordered you to work, and we will not force you to work, but if there are any people who are passive, stealing, raping, and playing tricks, all get out!"

"Brother, what should I do? I'm really going to be kicked out, and I'm going to work for a few more months, to see if I can spend more money to marry a wife."

It was the two men who took the lead in making trouble before.

"Hmph, let's go, we are all gone, let's see who will dig the canal for you!"

The man called Big Brother scratched his neck and shouted.

Hearing this, the other people also imitated his proud appearance, they concluded that the yamen was short of workers to dig canals, otherwise they would not have been forcibly tied up for them in the first place.

For this reason, they concluded that within a few days, people from the yamen would come begging them to come back.

The supervisor glanced at the men, smiled disdainfully, and clapped his hands.

At this time, a large group of people from other counties came out from behind, all carrying hoes on their shoulders.

"This is the construction site of the water conservancy project? I've heard about it a long time ago. The salary here is really good. You work five hours a day, you get paid a hundred dollars, and you get three meals a day!"

"Yes, yes, I have long wanted to come. When the prince sent people to our county to recruit workers, I was the first one to sign up!"

"Stop chatting here, talk while you work." The supervisor urged.

Soon, the black people poured into the canal and started digging.

The men who were about to be fired were dumbfounded, their faces lost their confidence and arrogance, and they all knelt on the ground and hugged their thighs.

"My lord, give me a chance!"

……

It has been two months and ten days since the start of the water conservancy project, and 90.00% of the water conservancy project has been completed.

The only thing left is the place connecting the river mouth, and some small mountains, and the rocky ground has not been dug through.

On this day, Li An brought Liu Yiyi and his party to the construction site in person.

Everyone else was under the scorching sun, only Li An had an oil-paper umbrella above his head to shade him.

Liu Yiyi held an oil-paper umbrella in her slender hand.

"Are you shy?" Li An looked at Liu Yiyi.

Liu Yiyi looked at Li An suspiciously: "No, my lord."

"Then why are you so far away from me?"

"I'm a slave, so I have to keep a distance from the prince." Liu Yiyi replied.

Chapter 16

Li An glanced at Liu Yiyi speechlessly, stretched out his arms to embrace Liu Yiyi's slender waist, and brought her closer to him.

"Cover you up too, if you get tanned, you won't be a little fairy anymore, you will become a black magic fairy."

Li An's intimate behavior immediately made Liu Yiyi blush. After Li An withdrew his hand, Liu Yiyi still obediently stood by his side.

"Cough~" Tian Qi coughed and reminded in a low voice, "My lord, we are here to deal with business, and the common people are still watching."

"Just look at it, who made this king look like a fish and a wild goose." Li An didn't care, and said cheekily.

"Pfft~" Liu Yiyi was even amused, but she quickly stopped laughing and lowered her head.

Tian Qi led the way and brought Li An to the side of the stone field.

"My lord, there are rocky grounds for more than ten miles in front of here. It is very difficult to dig here. Although it is possible to bypass the rocky ground and pass through the opposite side, but the official has roughly calculated the time it takes to dig through the rocky ground and bypass the rocky ground. Pretty much the same."

"Besides, if you make a detour, a lot of farmland will be invaded, and I ask the prince to decide."

"It's not easy for the common people to cultivate, so let's dig this rocky land." Li An said.

Tian Qi nodded: "Your Majesty, let's get more people and ask them to send more pickaxes."

"Don't bother." Li An interrupted Tian Qi.

Tian Qi looked at Li An suspiciously.

"Magistrate Tian, ​​before you said that the water conservancy project would be completed in two and a half months, unless there is divine help?"

Tian Qi nodded. That was the case, but Li An's ability was so strong that he actually almost completed the water conservancy project within two months and ten days.

"What did I tell you then?"

"My lord said that you are a god." Tian Qi smiled helplessly: "Now it seems that my lord's words are true. Although my lord has a mortal body, I can always do things that ordinary people can't do."

Li An gave Tian Qi a white look, "I want to play tricks on you, why are you flattering me? It's not right."

Tian Qi froze in place, what is this singing about?

Li An ignored Tian Qi, and pretended to be coercive: "Keep your eyes wide open, this king will give you a hand of God!"

After finishing speaking, he gave Wang Hu a wink.

Wang Hu hurriedly led people to move the explosive packs prepared these days to the rocky ground and bury them.

Li An took out the fire folder, lit the fuse, and immediately opened his arms in a very second way, and shouted: "All gods and thunders listen to my orders!"

"Leifa, explode!"

"Stab~" The fuse burned rapidly, and everyone including Tian Qi looked at Li An with puzzled expressions.

What is wrong with the prince again, why did he jump on the big god.

Li An ignored these questioning gazes and turned around slowly.

Liu Yiyi then turned around, and asked inexplicably: "My lord, why did you turn around?"

"A real man never looks directly at an explosion." Li Jianqiang said forcefully.

As soon as the voice fell, there was a deafening explosion behind him: "Boom~"

In an instant, the flames shot up into the sky, the gravel splashed, and even the ground trembled slightly.

After the explosion, thick black smoke filled the rocky ground, and the acrid smell of gunpowder filled the air.

The smoke and dust dissipated, and huge deep pits appeared on the hard rocky ground. The rocks inside were either blown away by the explosion, or were blown into debris and lay quietly in the pits.

The people were all dumbfounded, staring at the place of the explosion as if they had seen a ghost.

Is this something humans can do?

Hearing the sound of the explosion, Li An was satisfied, and turned his head to look at Liu Yiyi, who had a slightly pale face.

"How about it, how much do I score with this wave of pretending?"

Liu Yiyi has also been with Li An for a while. Although she doesn't understand the meaning of some of Li An's words, she knows how to answer them.

"If the full score is one hundred, I will give the prince one thousand points." He said and gave a thumbs up.

"Sensible." Li An smiled contentedly and turned around.

I thought that with such a perfect pretense, I would definitely be greeted with cheers from the common people.

But the common people were as if they were frightened, and they all stood there dumbfounded.

Is this script wrong?Li An pinched his chin and thought.

In just a moment, the common people knelt down and shouted at Li An: "God, the prince is a god, the god of thunder in the sky."

"That's right, I just like the way you have never seen the world."

Li An smiled contentedly. It would be meaningless to pretend that no one would cheer!

After the people calmed down, Li An hurriedly sent someone to empty the gravel in the pit.

Immediately after, Li An asked Wang Hu to take someone to bury the explosives. It would take several packs of explosives to completely blow up this place.

Fortunately, Li An has not been idle for the past two months, and the explosives are enough.

After burying the explosives, Wang Hu rubbed his hands and came to Li An, and said with a simple and honest smile: "My lord, you were so handsome just now, let me try it too?"

"No." Li An refused without thinking.

"Why?" Wang Hu was about 1.8 meters tall, with grievances written all over his rough face.

"Because I don't allow people who are more handsome and pretentious than me to exist!" Li An replied very straightforwardly.

Having said all this, Wang Hu didn't insist any more, because he knew that his family's lord regarded pretending as his life!

"Boom~"

"Boom~" There were explosions.

Thousands of people were expected to dig through the rocky ground for several days. Li An only used more than a dozen packs of explosives, and he cleared the customs in less than half an hour.

The subsequent expansion and cleaning were left to the workers, and Tian Qi took Li An to the next place that needed to be blasted.

This time it was a small mountain bun, and the explosives were buried and lit on fire with ease.

Accompanied by several explosions, the hill was razed to the ground, and the ditch finally connected with the valley.

Going up the valley, it didn't take long for everyone to come to the river.

The turbulent river was rushing away like a mad beast, and many people took a few steps back in fear when they saw the river.

The flood has already formed an instinctive fear in their hearts. What others see is the river water, but what they see are roaring beasts ready to devour their flesh and blood.

"Does the prince really want to divert this river water into the canal?" a commoner whispered.

"But the river broke its embankment, and our home will be washed away again." The trembling and fearful voice kept coming.

"I don't want to die yet. If the prince really takes the initiative to divert river water into Qingshui County, I will definitely move out immediately. I will lose all my family property and ancestral property. I just want to live."

"..."

The people's voices became louder and louder, and Li An could hear them all.

"My lord, please don't divert the river water into Qingshui County, otherwise everyone will die."

"Yes, my lord, please give us a way to survive!"

More and more people knelt and kowtowed to Li An to pray.

Tian Qi was full of confusion. He knew that Li An's actions would be able to control the drought in Qingshui County, so he wanted to explain to Li An.

I just said it myself, can these people believe it?

He has also seen the scene of floods sweeping in, and he also has a shadow in his heart.

If one fails, the entire Qingshui County may be submerged by the river.

He suddenly felt a little regretful, regretting helping Li An with such a water conservancy project.

If it succeeds, the merit will last for thousands of years, if it fails, it will be infamy through the ages!

He doesn't have as much confidence as Li An, nor does he have the courage of Li An!
