The beautiful pastoral field of Jiangmen girl

Chapter 454 The Method of Water Diversion (2)
If you don't ask about some things, you will definitely not be able to sleep.Therefore, Qing Shu couldn't help but asked several questions at once, "Sir, is it okay to dig ditches with great fanfare just for a thousand acres of wasteland? And where is the water source? I mean, where should water be diverted to irrigate the wasteland?" Come here? For things like digging ditches, is it okay to not ask the government for permission? There is also a cost. Digging ditches requires a lot of manpower and material resources, and it will definitely require a lot of money. I don’t know if there will be a good harvest on the wasteland, so just throw it away Is it worth investing so much money?" Excessive investment, in exchange for extremely low returns in the end, is not what she likes to see.

But Mr. Lu said, "You are so young, it is rare to be able to consider these key points. Mr. Song has already checked. There is a river in Liangzhou, named Cang River, which is a tributary of Meidai River. Its upper reaches flow through Liangzhou. The thousand miles of barren slopes in Liangzhou, that is, the barren land within the boundary of Liangzhou that you can see from your wasteland. Because of the terrain, if there is no human intervention, the water of the Cang River flowing through there will not be flooded even if it floods. It will not flow into the territory of Huizhou."

"What Mr. Song means is to dig ditches to bring the water from the Cang River to the territory of Huizhou to irrigate my wasteland. No matter how you think about it, you find it incredible. Sir, do you think this is appropriate?" Qing Shu thought This matter was so unrealistic that my mind couldn't turn it around for a while.

Mr. Lu said with a smile on his face, "If the water diversion is successful, not only your wasteland can be irrigated, but also the [-] hectares of fertile land you rented and planted this year. If you are willing, the surrounding people can also benefit."

"It is true that the water from the Cangjiang River can be used to irrigate the farmland. But water and fire are merciless. In the rainy season, when the Cangjiang River overflows, what should we do if we attract floods?"

"Girl, you are worrying too much. Besides, Mr. Song will prepare a big water tanker for you to divert water. The water tanker is a good thing. It can be seen occasionally on the rivers and rivers in the south, but we can hardly see it in the north. The water tanker is to be built. On the Cang River. With it, in the dry season, when the farmland needs to be irrigated, you can run the waterwheel; in the rainy season, when the farmland does not need to be irrigated, you can stop the waterwheel. So, can you rest assured?"

Qingyang was so curious that he interrupted and asked, "Sir, what does the waterwheel look like? How does the waterwheel lead the water into the ditch?"

Mr. Lu waved his hand, "Water diversion is basically what I just said. The specific things, the details and the way of doing it, Mr. is a layman, so naturally I can't explain clearly. In short, girl, just let go and plant fruit trees, divert water and build canals." Leave the matter to Mr. Song. Boy Yan has arranged all the manpower and material resources required, so you don’t have to worry about it.” After he finished speaking, he stood up, “Qingyang, since you’re here, you must persist until Finally, don’t give up halfway. Don’t develop an anticlimactic temperament.”

Qingyang stood up, and said respectfully, "Mr. Xie's teaching, students must keep it in mind."

Satisfied, Mr. Lu turned around and saw the three little heads eavesdropping on the door frame, "It's the same with you, you have to persevere until the end when you come. If anyone is afraid of hardship and tiredness, and dares to give up halfway, Mr. fine."

When the eavesdropping was discovered, Chen Qiaojiang, Hao and Luo Xiaorong entered the door in an orderly manner, stood up obediently, and answered in unison, "Students remember."

Mr. Lu left with his hands behind his back.

Immediately, Chen Qiaojiang and the others rushed forward and surrounded Qingshu to inquire about the water truck.

Children are children.With something of interest, one by one was listless just now, but in a blink of an eye, they have returned to a state of being alive and kicking.

Qingshu couldn't answer their questions, so she instructed them to ask Mr. Song, an expert in this field.She didn't let them go empty-handed, and ordered Xiaoyu to fetch a pack of snacks for them to take there.

I don't know how Mr. Song explained the waterwheel. Before going to bed at night, the four of Qingyang and the others kept discussing something excitedly and quietly, and Qingshu didn't want to hear it.Qing Shu stared at them lying down, and warned them to go to bed quickly and stop whispering, so she blew out the oil lamp and went back to her room to sleep.

She was lying down, but she couldn't fall asleep for a while, thinking about digging the canal, thinking about Zhou Boyan.Zhou Boyan said he was going to the border, but he didn't tell her which direction to go to.I don't know if he is still on the road or has reached his destination.

In the blink of an eye, it was the tenth day of March, and Qing Shu and the others had already stayed in the wasteland for five or six days.

In the afternoon, when the sun was westward, the four of them in Qingyang completed the daily task of five tree pits.They cheered, threw the shovel on the spot, and lay down on the ground, unable to get up.

Steward Ding, who was waiting at the side, came forward with a smile on his face, "Young masters, it's cold on the ground, please get up quickly. The little one has already brought the carriage over. How about the young masters get on the carriage and lie down again?"

The others lay still, only Qingyang reached out to Guanshi Ding.

Seeing Guanshi Ding, he bent down and stretched out his hand.

Qingyang grabbed Guanshi Ding's hand and sat up with Guanshi Ding's strength.Then he stood up, patted the dust off his clothes and said, "You three, get up quickly and go back."

Luo Xiaorong grinned, stretched out his hand to Qingyang, and was pulled up by Qingyang.Then came Hao.

Chen Qiaojiang lay on the ground unwilling to move, even if Qingyang wanted to pull him up, he ignored him, "Are there really meatballs for dinner?"

"Of course, my sister never lied." Qingyang said with some displeasure.

Luo Xiaorong tugged Qingyang's sleeve and dragged Qingyang to the carriage, "Brother, go quickly, let's go back and eat meatballs."

Now Chen Qiaojiang was in a hurry, and quickly got up from the ground, before the dust on his clothes had time to beat, he ran towards the carriage.

The carriage returned to the farmyard in Sunjia Village, and as soon as it stopped, the four of Chen Qiaojiang and the others cheered and jumped off the carriage, pulling each other towards the open door of the kitchen.

At this time, the smell of fried meatballs wafted far away, causing the children of nearby people to swallow their saliva.

Beside the frying pan, Qing Shu, dressed in common clothes and wearing an apron, squeezed out round meatballs with his left hand, scooped them up with a spoon in his right hand, and then lowered them into the frying pan.She kept repeating this action, putting one ball after another into the oil pan.

Xiaojuan took the strainer and kept turning the meatballs that floated to the surface of the hot oil after being heated.

The little fish squatted on the ground and was responsible for controlling the heat.

When the oily surface was covered with meatballs, Qing Shu stopped and stood aside to watch.

Xiaojuan continued to flip the meatballs in the oil pan.When the surface of the meatballs was evenly fried until golden, she quickly took out the fried meatballs with a strainer in her hand to control the oil.

Qingshu started to pour meatballs into the oil pan again, Xiaoyu also controlled the heat and added some firewood into the stove bit by bit.

When Qingyang and the others rushed into the kitchen, Qingshu turned her head and scolded them with a smile, "Look at all of you who are greedy, get out quickly, don't let the hot oil burn you. Get out, get out, wash your face and hands, immediately There are meatballs to eat."
