I really don't want to be a rebel [infrastructure]

After Wang Sui finished speaking, he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. He just thought of something else and didn't think about it.

The main reason is that there are too many legends about the little lynx. Anyway, in the end, he must be some kind of star king from the sky. As for the star king, it depends on the needs of the story. If you praise him for making everyone live a good life, then he is Caibo Xingjun, and if he is said to be full of martial arts, then he is Wuqu Xingjun descending to earth.

Anyway, identities are changeable, only you can't guess it, but they can't.

Although the bosses are pure people who are out of vulgar interests, they are also human beings who like to gossip and listen to interesting stories.

As a result, after listening too much, it became like this.

Luo Shixing was very distressed: "The livelihood of the people in a state depends on everyone, how can you engage in metaphysics?"

He almost said the words feudal superstition, but fortunately he didn't say it, otherwise he was afraid that something would happen.

Wang Sui was also a little embarrassed. He really wished for a god to help him sort out the account book just now, but in the end...

He rubbed his temples and said, "Just say what you want to say."

Luo Shixing said helplessly: "Go survey the terrain and see how to divert water. Irrigation is the most important thing."

The construction of the governor's mansion and the city wall are actually not as effective as the water conservancy system. As long as the irrigation is done and the flood control is done, the people will soon be able to recover.

Ordinary people are the most vulnerable group, but also the strongest group.

Just give them a period of peace, and they will come back to life on their own.

It was only then that Wang Sui suddenly realized that this matter... It seems that only Luo Shixing can really do it. There are a few of them who have a little bit of research on water control, but that little research is basically of no help to the little lynx. busy.

The weird things the other party came up with are all very useful, and I don't know how his little head came up with it.

Luo Shixing walked out and said, "It's time to get off work. We still have the old rules and don't work overtime."

Although there are a lot of things to do now, it is not something that can be done by working overtime for a day or two. It takes a little time to do it. On the contrary, working too much overtime will break everyone's health. Who will do the work then?

Wang Su pressed the post in his heart: "Understood."

When Luo Shi was walking out, he happened to meet Cheng Jingwei coming over with a cloak. When he saw Luo Shixing, he helped him put it on and asked, "Where are you going?"

Luo Shixing said: "Let's take a look at the surrounding rivers first. If there is a suitable one, then we don't have to go far. If not, we have to go a little farther."

Upon hearing this, Cheng Jingwei asked, "Do you want to dig a canal?"

Luo Shixing nodded: "Yes, after it's settled, let the blasting team blast the soil and rocks along the road to loosen them, and then let people dig it faster."

Cheng Jingwei also said: "In this case, do we need to build a blacksmith workshop first?"

Luo Shixing rubbed his chin and said: "I didn't want to get too many people from the alliance before, but now it seems that I can't come. Hey, the population hasn't been counted yet, and I don't know how many people there are. Can the farmland be reclaimed before April? complete."

April is the time for planting the first season of rice. If you can’t catch up, you have to wait for the second season. Even if it’s only three months late, it’s a pity to miss a season.

Cheng Jingwei said slowly while helping him onto the horse: "I took people to look around, and I don't know the exact number, but it seems that there are more women than men."

Luo Shixing frowned when he heard this. He had no problem with the number of women. Naturally, this happened because either all the men were conscripted to the front and did not come back, or all the men ran away, leaving behind no women.

In fact, it is not impossible for women to farm, but there is a natural difference in physical strength between men and women. This is something that cannot be made up for. Even if there is someone who is stronger than men, it is an individual. Generally speaking, fewer men mean that the area of ​​cultivated land will be affected. limit.

He sighed: "Forget it, let's take one step at a time."

If it doesn't work, he has to use his brain to see if he can rely on technology to make up for the difference in physical strength.

Cheng Jingwei got on his horse and walked side by side with him. When they were walking all the way out of the city, many people were watching them secretly.

After those gangsters were arrested last time, the law and order in the city has improved a lot, but the villains are always inexhaustible, and a batch will be returned after leaving.

But now there are soldiers patrolling the city, and those who encounter fights will be arrested and sent for interrogation, and the party who takes the initiative to find trouble will be detained and punished.

In the beginning, no one dared to go there. To ordinary people, the existence of the yamen seemed like a dragon's pond and a tiger's den, and people avoided it like snakes and scorpions.

However, there are always some desperate people who grit their teeth and stomp their feet and go to sue the officials. Now Pei Xingben is in charge of these matters, because he doesn't have much work so far, so he simply arranges the law and order first.

Today's Jiaozhou City has no scholars, squires or aristocratic families except for them, so the general concept of class in the Tang Dynasty does not exist here, and these people can be treated equally, and the alliance itself has laws, which are even stronger than the laws of the Tang Dynasty. Be more specific.

According to the laws of the alliance, Pei Xingben can handle it impartially.

And as long as it can maintain fairness and justice, it will already make the people grateful.

These people are naturally very grateful to the current state capital, and the neighbors who know what they have encountered naturally know that the current state capital is different from before.

Credibility is slowly accumulating like this, especially when you go out and meet ordinary people, you don’t put on airs, not to mention them, even the soldiers are very gentle to the people, so that the people gradually become less afraid of the new governor, dare to do more Take a second look.

Well, the new governor and Sima are both young and good-looking, who wouldn't want to take a second look?

Luo Shixing observed carefully with a reserved smile on his face, and found that as Cheng Jingwei said, there are still a lot of women nowadays, and many women are either single or with children.

Even those children were mostly girls, for a moment Luo Shixing even wondered if he had come to the country of daughters.

On the way out of the city, they also saw men, but the number was relatively small, and some of them were disabled, and they seemed to be the kind of people who were not easy to escape.

After leaving the city, the smile on Luo Shixing's face gradually disappeared, he pursed his lips and asked, "Their parents and husband..."

"Most of them were lost in the flames of war." Cheng Jingwei said it more implicitly, but in fact most of them were abandoned.

Fathers abandon their wives and daughters and take their sons away, and husbands abandon their wives and daughters and take their sons away. When disaster strikes, such things abound.

Luo Shixing sighed deeply, and said angrily, "I really want those who ran away not to come back."

Cheng Jingwei helped him along and said, "Then don't let them come back, just don't give them permanent residence registration."

Luo Shixing said sullenly, "No, we are short of people now."

To be exact, there is a shortage of labor, so these men will definitely be accepted after they come back, and even those abandoned women may swallow their anger.

Even if Luo Shixing felt a thorn in his throat when he thought about it, this is the current reality. It is difficult for women to live alone, and it seems that they cannot be blamed for not being self-reliant because they grew up in this environment.

Seeing his frown, Cheng Jingwei said, "It's not impossible, in fact, there are still some of us."

Luo Shixing turned to look at him: "Where are we from?"

Cheng Jing smiled and said, "Have you forgotten those black households in Beidai County?"

Those black households came out to escape their hometown. They couldn't bear the actions of the local county magistrate at all, so they would rather not have household registration and run out at the risk of being arrested and convicted, just to have a way out.

Luo Shixing pitied them before, but he wanted to settle down but was thwarted, so he could only turn a blind eye and turn a blind eye. The only thing he could do was to pretend to be stupid when the surrounding county magistrates condemned him.

Now... these people are completely available!

Luo Shixing's eyes lit up: "Yes, I can still settle down for them!"

In the past, the county magistrates were at the same level, and there was nothing he could do if the other party didn't want to transfer him. Now the county magistrates or other officials should be in charge of the county. It's okay even if they don't want to. Who made him the governor?The governor said it could be done!

Luo Shixing's mind opened up in an instant. In fact, all this tossing for a long time was due to the flow of people within Jiaozhou.

If people from other states could be brought over... Luo Shixing began to think seriously about the feasibility.

After hearing this, Cheng Jingwei quickly stopped: "This...others are also governors, so it's not easy to operate."

Luo Shixing frowned: "Then what should we do?"

Cheng Jingwei said decisively: "It's easy, I'll just go and suppress the bandits in two days."

Luo Shixing looked blank: "Huh?"

Cheng Jingwei explained: "Because most of the people in Lingnan are poor, there are many bandits. There are no bandits near us simply because the poor ones didn't bother to rob them before. In fact, there are some richer counties. These people are brought here to work. Pretty good too."

Luo Shixing bowed his hands to Cheng Jingwei to express his admiration. He thought he had a big brain, but he didn't expect that Cheng Jingwei had already set his sights on those bandits.

It's just that he doesn't know how many bandits there are, so he doesn't hold out hope. It is more important to build water conservancy right now.

Luo Shixing looked around, and said worriedly: "These rivers don't have a lot of water, and I feel like they can't support irrigation."

Cheng Jingwei got off his horse to check it out and came back and said: "It should be affected by the drought. I looked at it and the original river course should be where we were standing."

Luo Shixing sighed for a long time: "Hey, I don't know if there will be drought next year."

However, no matter whether it is or not, the work must be done first.

After his survey, he chose a mountain depression to build a reservoir, on the one hand for regulation and on the other hand to avoid the current drought situation.

He calculated that if he was lucky enough, he might be able to build a hydropower station in the future. Of course, he didn't want to do it right now, because it would take too much manpower and material resources.

Hey, since they moved here, they almost can't even use the electric lights.

And most of the arable land on the Zhoucheng side is located in the plains, even a large plain, this is the only place that comforts Luo Shixing.

After returning from the outside, Luo Shixing asked people to issue a job recruitment announcement. Among other things, the above management of food, housing and wages attracted many people.

It's just that after the aqueduct and land reclamation were carried out at the same time, he found that the progress did not seem to be as fast as he had imagined.

Should not be ah.

He looked at the progress reported by the people below. His progress has slowed down a lot. If it was put in Beidai County, it would take half the time to finish it.

He asked his secretary who had been following him, oh, the current Jiaozhou recorder to inquire.

However, the result of the inquiry is that everything is going on normally.

Luo Shixing got more and more wrong, got up and said, "Come on, let's go and have a look."

He took people all the way out of the state city to the construction site, but when he arrived at the construction site, he froze there.
