Ask Sword

Su Feng said: "The flood during the Fengyi years, should have been mentioned in the books?"

"The flood?"

"Um."

Su Feng nodded and said: "At that time, there were heavy rains in Hedong and Duji, which lasted for two months.

The imperial court, Xuegong, Zhenfusi, academies in various places, and soldiers from various prefectures tried their best to consolidate the embankment, consuming countless manpower, material and financial resources to stabilize the embankment.

However, Moxiu besieged and killed the Zhenhe Chi Beast that inhabited the bottom of the river and lived for an unknown number of years for his own self-interest, causing the embankment to burst and the flood to rush into the plain.

The land of the two realms was completely submerged by the flood. Houses collapsed, chariots and horses washed away, villages and towns were submerged under water, countless people were displaced, and their eyes were full of desolation. "

Li Ang was silent for a while. Once the flood broke out, it would affect hundreds of state capitals along the river banks, and the number of victims would be as high as one million, or even tens of millions.

In addition, there are problems such as disease transmission, soil alkalization, and food production reduction afterwards, which are more serious than water poisoning epidemics that cut flesh with blunt knives.

During Fengyi's year, it happened to be the time when Shan Chang was young.

Witnessing the horror of the floods, it is no wonder that the school has attached great importance to water conservancy construction during the decades of Shanzhang's reign.

Li Ang thought for a while and asked: "Even with the current national strength of Yu State, is it still impossible to eliminate the hidden danger of flood?"

"The Zhuohe River is full of silt, and the water level rises eight inches when the embankment is built one foot higher. The higher the embankment is built, it is two or three feet higher than the towns on both banks. It can be called a hanging river on the ground."

Su Feng spread his hands and said, "One stone in turbid water contains six buckets of mud.

There is so much silt flowing down the river at all times, no matter how powerful the monks are, they are human beings after all, not gods and Buddhas, and it is impossible to destroy the silt in the river out of thin air.

Secondly, the bottom of the turbid water is connected to Jiuyou.

Nine Nether Dark Rivers spread all over the world, and no one can explain the complexity of the terrain.

It may be that there is not much rain in Hadong Province and Duji Province, but the heavy rain in other places flows into the turbid water through the Jiuyou dark river, causing the turbid water to rise suddenly, causing floods.

That is to say, the power of the sky is unpredictable. "

"That's true."

Li Ang smacked his lips, why does it feel like Yu Guo is sitting on a powder keg stacked with countless hidden dangers? There are risks everywhere.

"Surprised, right? Haha, when I found out, I couldn't sleep all night. I wish I could go to Suzaku Street and tell the citizens about the risks. It's like worrying unfoundedly."

Su Feng smiled and said: "Relax, when your authority comes up and you read more banned books in Zangshuge, you will be able to get used to it.

Ordinary people can learn a lot of wisdom, let alone a school where there are countless smart people?

Compared with the previous Sui Dynasty, the State of Yu has built more dams, reservoirs, and drainage gates, and has arranged for town governors and soldiers to be stationed at key ferry crossings to minimize the risk of flooding as much as possible.

We have more power and means to maintain order in the dark than you can imagine.

The probability of another major flood is almost equivalent to that Haotian Zhangjiao suddenly announced his renunciation of faith and came to the academy to take the freshman exam. "

The State of Yu does not recognize dual nationality, so if the head teacher comes, he will have to be reissued a household registration—it must be from Chang'an.

Li Ang rubbed his eyebrows, and decided not to worry about this anymore.

"Don't you see the water of the Yellow River coming up from the sky."

Amidst the sound of reciting poems at the banquet, Tianshang slowly sailed westward and arrived at Xiashan Mountain in the middle of the night.

The carriage that had been waiting outside the gate of Xuegong Mountain took the drunken people back to their homes, and Li Ang also boarded the carriage and returned to the long-lost Jinchengfang mansion——

Too many things happened in the trial, it's time to take a good rest.

————

"call."

In the morning, Li Ang wakes up in his own bed after a full sleep, skillfully releases his thoughts, fetches towels and hot water, brushes his teeth and washes his teeth, then goes to the living room to have breakfast with Chai Chai and Jia Luo.

Breakfast includes but is not limited to porridge, fried eggs, fermented bean curd with distiller's grains, deep-fried dough sticks, pickles, meat cakes, milk, steamed buns.

Li Ang looked at the table full of food, and he was no longer surprised.

Chai Chai has a bigger appetite than him,

And Jia Luo is a body-training martial artist, and she eats a lot. When she lived in Jinchengfang, she was a little bit embarrassed at the beginning, so she deliberately reduced her appetite, and she was full after eating only three bowls of rice.

After looking at Chai Chai's food list for a few days, he let go of eating.

Jingle bells——

Chai Chai and Jia Luo sat on both sides of the table, holding bowls bigger than their faces in their hands, and cooking with chopsticks,

Li Ang, who had finished eating, sat calmly in the middle, flipping through today's newspaper,

Release your thoughts from time to time, take away the plates that the two of you ate, wash them in the sink, and stack them neatly.

With the increase in food consumption at home, the stove has not been fired for cooking for a long time, and the dishes are basically called restaurants.

The restaurant along the street will send the waiter to deliver the menu on time at the meal time, and ask Li Ang, a big customer, to order.

Start work immediately after getting the menu, and send it in a food box after it is ready.

Li Ang wanted to suggest that they develop a food delivery business.

"Is there any news today?"

Chai Chai put down the porridge bowl and asked casually.

"No big news."

Li Ang glanced at her, released his thoughts, and brushed away the two grains of rice remaining on her cheeks, "A certain ruler of the Nanzhao Six Kingdoms died of illness, and it is estimated that there will be a war internally.

Gangnam East is going to distribute a lamb to families with newborns. "

"Distributing lambs?"

Chai Chai tilted his head in doubt, "What does this mean?"

Li Ang curled his lips and said, "Encourage childbearing."

"ah?"

Chai Chai widened his eyes in astonishment, "Isn't Jiangnan Road densely populated? Should we encourage it?"

"It's different today. The wealth produced by workshops is much more than that of arable land. Naturally, the more laborers, the better.

The government over there also put up a notice saying, 'Live more and live faster, live happily ever after. '

Slogans such as 'It's the same to have a son and a daughter, but a daughter is more filial to her father and mother'. "

The use of forceps and the training of midwives in sickrooms has greatly reduced infant and maternal mortality. And the workshops don't pick male or female workers very much.

Li Ang shook his head, "In addition, there is shipping. This academic exchange has led to the development of maritime trade routes to the West. The coastal state capitals are busy building ships and lack manpower.

Some time ago, Ji Linglang also mentioned to me that Sha De, the shopkeeper in our hometown in Weizhou, has grown in business over the past few years, and even changed the name of the store to Salon. "

"salon?"

"It's actually the long worm I pulled out of his leg."

Mentioning this, Li Ang couldn't help but have black lines all over his head, "It seems that shopkeeper Sha is now obsessed with collecting all kinds of parasites, and when he goes to other countries to do business, he has to take out wine soaked in all kinds of parasites wherever he goes. Altar, using personal experience to tell foreigners about the dangers of drinking raw water and eating raw food."

To some extent, Shad can be regarded as taking advantage of Li Ang's enthusiasm. However, he promotes that drinking more hot water is beneficial to the world, and Li Ang is happy to see it succeed.
