Eldest daughter

Chapter 142 Talking about a business
Day by day, when all the rice has been harvested, and it is almost the Mid-Autumn Festival in August, Changle Town only grows rice for one season, and wheat is planted in winter.

Wang Yuan'er received the rent for the first year, which was several hundred catties of rice. She kept a year's ration, and sold all the rest to the rice shop, which also made a lot of money.

The river department has been built for almost three months, and it is already in the final state, but not many people left, because the river channel is still under construction, and slowly, many businessmen came to open shops and do business .

This is what Wang Yuan'er is happy to see. If there are many people, it will be lively, and the business will naturally be better, and it will be more prosperous. It would be even better if it was like this all the time!

Thinking of the flash flood in the future, Wang Yuan'er felt disturbed. If it cannot be prevented, is there any way to minimize the damage and loss?

The most depressing thing is that she can't tell others, so she can't get this answer. However, no one said, what about the book?

On this day, Wang Yuan'er told Qing'er and the others to visit the shop, while she went to the bookstore herself.

The bookstore is on Zhongxin Street, and the shopkeeper also knows Wang Yuaner, so when he saw her coming, he smiled and asked, "Are you here to send a letter or what?"

"Master Xu, I'm looking for two books." Wang Yuan'er replied with a smile, thought for a while and then asked, "Are there any books about water control? For example, do you have any books on historical records?"

"Why do you want to read those books, you girl? Go look for them on the innermost bookshelf." Shopkeeper Xu pointed in the direction.

Wang Yuan'er followed the direction he was pointing to and quickly came to the shelf, ran her fingertips across the yellowed books, and saw a Northern Dynasty History Records, so she picked it up.

At this time, it was an extremely thick book, very heavy, and it would definitely not be able to finish reading in a short while. Wang Yuan'er flipped through it and felt a headache.

She flipped through the bookshelf again, and at the top of the shelf, she saw a dust-sealed Leshan Ji, and pulled it out.

Sitting on the ground, she flipped through the book Leshan Ji, and her eyes lit up when she saw it. It turned out that this book was about Changle Mountain, but it was not called Changle Mountain, it was called Leshan, and Changle Town was only called Lezhen.

The book contains the origins and stories of Leshan. There used to be immortals. Flipping through, Wang Yuaner’s eyes were solemn. It turned out that Changle Mountain had a flash flood a hundred years ago, and everything was destroyed. It was rebuilt later. Changed the name to Changle, looking forward to the meaning of long-term peace and happiness.

Wang Yuan'er read it carefully. The book did not mention how to prevent such natural disasters. It only said that when there was too much rainfall, it would quickly converge into a stream, which would cause the water level of the creek to skyrocket, and debris flow and landslides. It is naturally better to dredge the water level.

After closing the book, Wang Yuan'er made a decision. She and shopkeeper Xu bought this Leshan Ji and took it home. She had to find a way to let the county magistrate know about it.

When I arrived at my house, I saw several people gathered around the door of my shop, Wang Chun'er looked at a loss, Wang Qing'er saw her sharply, and shouted: "Eldest sister is back!"

Those people looked over, and Wang Yuan'er also stepped forward quickly. At the front, a man about 30 years old, wearing a dark blue gown and a jade hairpin, looked at her: "Are you the eldest daughter of the Wang family?"

"You are?" Wang Yuan'er didn't know that person, but looked at shopkeeper Yu standing behind him, showing a question.

"My surname is Song. I'm here because I want to talk to Miss Wang about a business!" The man who claimed to be surnamed Song laughed.
