Chapter 1088 Drought, Dam (fifteen more)
Drought?

Been there since last year!

Ji Shuyun's face darkened. Nanhe is far away from Peicheng. If there are refugees from Nanhe here, the situation in other places is probably very urgent.

Squinting his eyes, Ji Shuyun slowly said: "If this is the case, then Nanhe officials deliberately concealed it and did not report it. The drought must be more serious than we imagined. Maybe we should take early countermeasures."

"Yes, my subordinates have already sent someone to bring the news of last year's drought." Mo Qing wrote, and at this moment, a female voice came in, "Shuyun, I think this time it's not just about the drought in Nanhe."

Ji Shuyun's eyes lit up, and he looked towards him and said, "What did you see?"

Chu Xuanji nodded with a smile, nodded to Ji Feng and Gu Qingkuang one after another, and then said: "Yes, the drought in Nanhe has been going on for three years. Although rains have been falling one after another, the drought has not been completely alleviated."

Ji Shuyun was silent for a moment, and then slowly uttered two words: "Long drought..."

Chu Xuanji sighed and said, "This year may not be easy."

Ji Shuyun nodded, reached out and knocked on the table in front of him, the others were silently waiting for Ji Shuyun's next words.

"Miss, should we stockpile food first? After all, if the drought is really serious, our food production will also be affected." Bailijing asked, "Also, should we take in those refugees who came to Peicheng? "

Ji Shuyun smiled lightly and said: "Take it! Take it when you come! The development and exploration of Beiling needs people. According to the normal recruitment, you will be given wages and household registration. I am not afraid that they will not stay."

"If there are too many refugees, will it affect Peicheng?" Ouyang Xi asked worriedly. After all, in the later stage, these refugees who keep fleeing will have a bandit spirit!
"I won't." Ji Shuyun said with a confident smile. Her various businesses are getting bigger and bigger. With the cooperation with Dugubao, the great cause of expansion is being implemented step by step. Where did Uncle Yan, Uncle Yan, and Emperor Nanyue get their money? Among other things, she has the confidence to build ten more Peicheng!
But what she wants is not just Peicheng, but a consolidated empire!

"Yun'er." Jun Wuji, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said, but he spoke to Ji Shuyun's heart, "If you are afraid of drought, why not build a dam once and for all?"

dam?

Everyone was taken aback for a moment, and all turned their heads to look at Jun Wuji.

Jun Wuji said without hesitation: "Yes, the dam. The terrain around the North Ridge is steep and sparsely populated. The North Ridge is at the junction of the Baishui River and the Nu River, and there are countless tributaries alternating below, which have washed out a fertile plain area. This area , The imperial court also sent people to develop and build towns, but because they are located under the Baishui River and the Nu River, the flood seasons of the two rivers are fierce. It’s just that there is no crop for thousands of miles. In history, several towns were abandoned in the end, so the imperial court did not invest in the development of this area, and instead transferred the nearest town to Peicheng, which is farther away from North Ridge.”

Having said that, Jun Wuji didn't continue.

He believed that with Ji Shuyun's intelligence, he must have understood what he meant.

Instead of spending a lot of manpower and material resources to dig mountains and land, it is better to directly use existing resources.
