Xiao Sheng coughed lightly, and quickly changed the subject: "By the way, Brother Cheng Ye, do you know how to control floods?"

"Flood?"

"Where is the flood?"

"Is the capital city going to be submerged?"

The three little milk bags raised their heads very synchronously, with the same shocked expressions on their faces.

They had never experienced flooding themselves.

Even in the few years when they went to Zhengyang County, the place was indeed flooded at the beginning, but it was already a follow-up when they arrived, and Zhengyang County was located in a remote place, and there was no epidemic, so they forgot about it.

Gu Yuzhu was stunned for a while.

The three little milk bags are obviously afraid of the unknown.

As soon as she raised her hand, she stroked the three round heads one by one, and comforted her: "Don't worry, the capital's geographical location is special, even if there is a flood, it won't rush into the city."

"It's nothing more than artificial diversion, diversion and heightening and thickening the original embankment. It's a two-pronged approach. It's up to people to make things happen, and it's up to heaven to plan things." Song Chengye put down his chopsticks and listed several methods.

"Your promotion seems to be due to the merits of flood control. I'm just a layman, so I can only think of these things. Asking for my opinion is unnecessary."

Xiao Sheng smiled wryly: "We all came up from county magistrates, and we have similar approaches but the same results. Moreover, I have inside information, and I heard from people in Qin Tianjian that this flood may be the worst in a century. The people in the Ministry racked their brains, all afraid of flooding the city."

He rubbed the center of his brows very distressed, "That's why the emperor transferred me, who had dealt with floods, back, but I only used those old methods, brother Chengye, Yuzhu, The two of you have so many ideas, why don't you have any novel ideas?"

Seeing that his complexion suddenly became solemn, Gu Yuzhu put the fish that was brought to his mouth without being able to stuff it into his mouth.

"Is it so serious?" She was full of doubts, "Is it possible to calculate such a thing by watching the sky at night? Isn't it a bit too much?"

As a good young man in the new century who has been influenced by materialism for more than 20 years, Gu Yuzhu is still skeptical about things like fortune-telling, even though he has traveled through an extra space and even has a koi physique.

After all, she used to be someone who pretended to be a magic stick.

"Qin Tianjian is the source of family studies inherited in one line. Today's Qin Tianjian has been passed down for more than 40 generations. It has been passed down from the previous dynasty to the present. The new emperors who have changed dynasties are not willing to kill them. Their greatest tolerance, in major matters, they almost never make mistakes, this time it is very likely to be true."

He spoke in a serious and chattering manner, which stunned Gu Yuzhu for a moment.

Even, Gu Yuzhu's heart became heavy unconsciously, and he began to think of ways.

But the wisdom of the ancients cannot be underestimated.

What Song Chengye said summed up the experience of the people in the previous dynasty, and almost summed up the extremes that can be achieved by manpower and material resources now.

"Actually, the three steps of diversion, diversion, and dike reinforcement have been completed. Even if there is a flood, you can deal with it calmly. Why bother to think of new methods." Gu Yuzhu thought for a while and said, "A new The method is not necessarily a complete development, but these three steps have condensed the wisdom of the predecessors, experienced countless improvements, and are more able to cope with the current situation."

Her words made Xiao Sheng suddenly enlightened.

"That's right." Xiao Sheng clapped his hands, "Yuzhu, you are right, those people in the Ministry of Industry were frightened into stupidity by the people from the Qin Tianjian, and they had to struggle to find a new way. If they don’t come out, they won’t act, that’s not acceptable, we still have to do the original three steps well.”

When he was so excited, he didn't even care about eating. He got up and said, "I have water conservancy maps around the capital, why don't we talk about how to divide and divert roads."

With that said, he was going to get it.

Du Fanxing grabbed him, and said angrily: "It's still early, and it's time to eat, even if you don't eat, Yuzhu and the others will still eat, why bring the blueprint on the table, hungry If you go to draw pictures, what good ideas can you come up with?"

Xiao Sheng calmed down instantly.

He rubbed his head embarrassingly, and smiled: "Ma'am said, I was too excited at the moment, my fault, my fault."

But for the next meal, he was obviously absent-minded, and kept pulling Gu Yuzhu and Song Chengye to talk about flood control.

Song Chengye has read a lot of books and has many ideas, and Gu Yuzhu was born in the modern age of information explosion. The two talked to each other, and occasionally they could provide one or two good ideas. They all clattered.

Seeing this, Du Fanxing shook his head helplessly.

This is the nature of my husband, who seems to be gentle and refined, but when encountering critical matters, he can't sit still.

After eating, the servants took the food away, Xiao Sheng couldn't wait to take the blueprint, and pulled a few people to draw with him how to divert the traffic.

Several people studied for a long time.

Xiao Sheng asked anxiously: "How is it? You guys have noticed something, but do you have any other suggestions?"

Song Chengye's and Gu Yuzhu's fingers also slid across the drawing, and suddenly they touched each other.

A smile flashed in his dark eyes, he turned his head and asked, "Madam, do you think this place is okay?"

Gu Yuzhu hesitated for a while, seeing Xiao Sheng waiting helplessly, then nodded and said: "I think it may be more beneficial to divert all the roads here."

"Here?" Xiao Sheng craned his neck to look, but shook his head, "I'm afraid it's not possible here, this area is all farms, except for tenant farmers, farmers, and aristocratic farming families, and even the Zhuangzi here is also very rich. Some of them are from honorable families, and some are from some of the richest businessmen in the capital, I'm afraid they won't give up these places."

"If we let them move away like this, without giving any benefits, the common people will naturally not want it, but if the benefits are given in place, there should be no problem." Gu Yuzhu suggested.

"After all, you can't let the common people suffer too much."

"What you said is indeed reasonable, but I have to go back and discuss this matter with several adults from the Ministry of Industry." Xiao Sheng rubbed his brows, he always felt that this matter was not so simple.

A group of people discussed for a long time around the water conservancy map. They had almost exhausted all the good and bad ways, and when they couldn't come up with any more opinions, Gu Yuzhu and the others got up to leave and went back home.

Xiao Sheng reluctantly sent them to the door, and before leaving, he even looked at Song Chengye eagerly, his eyes filled with strong "friendship".

——I can't wait to leave people behind and go to sleep.

"Brother Chengye—" he dragged his tune, "Actually, I still have a few questions in my mind, which have been circling around."

Gu Yuzhu and Du Fanxing both covered their faces.

Really blind.
