Dressed As the Deadly Opponent of the Male Protagonist of the Imperial Examination
Chapter 16: Yangzhou County
"The water really comes up! It really comes up!"
The workers and spectators burst into cheers.
Tang Hang looked at Pei Yunxiao in front of the crowd, and looked at each other, all seeing a relaxed mood in the other person's eyes.
"It's fine now. You don't have to pick water and mountains anymore." A villager said, "Brother Tang, can you make this car longer so that we can use the higher slopes."
"Yes, yes, make it longer!"
Tang Heng also had this intention, and he had to agree upon hearing the words.
But Pei Yunxiao suddenly stood up: "Dear folks, everyone has worked so hard for so many days. I am happy today, so let's take a break first."
"Yes, yes, I want to rest." Tang Qiang was full of joy: "A Hang, you and Young Master Pei are going to my house tonight, I ask your aunt to kill two chickens!"
Seeing that Pei Yunxiao's expression was wrong, Tang Hang suddenly felt a little nervous, and he refused, "Uncle Qiang wanted me to take it, but the folks are still waiting for me to build more water trucks. I have to go back and draw pictures."
"Yes, you also know that your brother has always been serious in doing things. He is uneasy if you don't let him finish." Pei Yunxiao also helped.
Tang Qiang had no choice but to leave by himself. The others also gradually left, leaving only Tang Hang and Pei Yunxiao.
As soon as the person left, Tang Heng became nervous: "Brother Xiao, is there something wrong?"
Building a waterwheel is a rare opportunity for him, and he can't make any mistakes.
"Brother, look at this hillside, from here to the top of the mountain, how can it be nearly a hundred meters long. Is it possible that you have to build a hundred-meter-long water truck?" Pei Yunxiao pointed to the hillside.
When reading the book, she didn't feel that, now that she was on the scene, she realized that the settings in the book were somewhat flawed.
"Even if you can really build it, the heights of the fields of each family are different, the owner is three feet, and the west is five feet. If all are built, not to mention waste, how much land will be occupied."
"Not only that, the longer the length, the more force you exert. Your intention is to save everyone the effort to carry water, but in this way, you can't save much labor. That's not even counted. The nearly hundred feet of water tanker, Starting from the ditches below the mountain, how much water will be left when you reach the top of the mountain?"
Tang Hang pondered for a while, frowning, "Thanks to Brother Xiao for reminding me that I was just happy for a while, but I didn't think about it!"
"A wise man must have a lot of misgivings. The brother is under a lot of pressure, and he didn't expect it to be human nature." Pei Yunxiao explained.
"Then, Brother Xiao, is there any way to solve this problem?"
Pei Yunxiao thought, suddenly, his eyes lit up: "Brother, I have a solution!"
"Since the water-lift truck can't be longer, why not arrange the water-lift truck up and down and lift water up to the top of the mountain?"
Tang Hang was a little confused: "Brother Xiao, please elaborate!"
"I mean, dig ditches on the hillside! It used to be impossible, because the river below the mountain did not come, but now with the water truck, it can be excavated.
At intervals, a ditch is dug, and the water below is lifted into the ditch with a water-lift truck, and then the water is diverted to irrigate the farmland until it reaches the top of the mountain. "
This is somewhat similar to the shape of modern terraces, and Pei Yunxiao's inspiration comes from this.
Tang Hang stroked his palm and was pleasantly surprised: "This way, water can be lifted when it rains little, and water can be stored when it rains a lot. The best of both worlds."
"Brother Xiao! Thanks to you!" Tang Hang was excited for a while, grabbing Pei Yunxiao's shoulders with a grateful expression.
"Digging a canal is not a trivial matter. I think my brother still needs to discuss with the village chief."
"Don't worry, wrap it on me!"
The success of the first water-lift truck gave the villagers and workers a lot of confidence, so when Tang Heng proposed to the village chief of Tangjiazhuang to dig a canal, the village chief agreed with little consideration.
More than half a month later, on one side, the villagers worked hard to dig ditches on the hillside, and on the other side, Tang Hang led the workers to make more water trucks in a hurry.
During the period, Bai Qingqing came several times, which brought about a gradual change in the direction of public opinion in Qingshan County.
Pei Yunxiao knew that emotional matters needed to be cut quickly, so she deliberately chilled her. And since Bai Qingqing's father, Bai Yuan, came to visit and asked her surname and first name, Bai Qingqing never came again.
On that day, when Pei Yunxiao and Jinnian returned from purchasing materials from the county town, they saw that all the villagers who were supposed to be working were gathered in one place, pointing to the grass shed not far away.
"Uncle Qiang, what's wrong?" Pei Yunxiao was puzzled, and walked to Tang Qiang to ask.
"Oh!" Tang Qiang sighed, "It's not A Heng's father...really, it's getting more and more unclear after all these years."
Tang Yong? Pei Yunxiao was taken aback. What is Tang Yong doing?
Seeing Pei Yunxiao's face confused, several villagers rushed to explain the matter.
"This Tang Yong is really not something. Earlier when Hengzi suffered and was involved in building a waterwheel here, everyone didn't believe him. Rumors were also flying in the county. At that time, he was hiding far away for fear of getting fishy!"
"Now, seeing that Hengzi has made some achievements, and seeing that everyone can enjoy the benefits, he came out. To put it bluntly, isn't it just for the two boxes of money in Hengzi's hand!"
A villager pityed and lamented: "Poor Hangzi, I just knelt here, crying and begging that Tang Yong can't touch the life-saving money of the villagers in this county. That is everyone's last hope to survive the drought. !"
"Then Tang Yong was too much. He felt that he had no worries after installing a water tanker in his house, so he wouldn't let us install a water tanker! Pooh!"
"Don't say that. Brother Tang said, let the folks in the village pretend to be the last one!"
"Oh, what a good boy!"
"Princess Pei." Tang Qiang said to Pei Yunxiao, "A Heng, this child has had a hard time since he was a child, you see, can you please help and persuade his father."
These villagers were most afraid of getting involved in the Tang family in the past, but now Tang Heng has made contributions to everyone. If they don't do something, wouldn't they be ungrateful?
But they were uneducated and couldn't say one, two, three, four, so they thought that Pei Yunxiao's status was precious and might be useful.
Pei Yunxiao's face remained calm, but he was not worried at all. Now Tang Heng can still let Tang Yong bully?
But she nodded: "Uncle Qiang, don't worry, I'll go and have a look." After speaking, she headed for the straw shed.
Jinnian followed up uneasy. He could hear Jinying say that this family is very rascal, and he has to protect the little son.
The two walked to the straw shed, but Pei Yunxiao did not go in, but hid sideways under the window, watching the situation inside.
In the room, Tang Yong was paralyzed on the ground, and Tang Heng stood aside, with a cold-blooded mocking smile on his face.
really. Pei Yunxiao secretly said in her heart and continued to watch the changes.
"I know, it was my good grandmother and good stepmother who teased you to come, watching me take the money, jealous." Tang Hang's tone was cold, where is the pitiful face who just knelt and cried?
Jinnian stared at him with wide eyes, and couldn't believe that this was the gentleman Tang who had been with them during this period of time.
Pei Yunxiao was not surprised at all. Tang Heng is in front of her, whether he intends to hide the frontline or think about the relationship between the two, but she will never forget that Tang Heng is the man who is the center of the book and the man with thunderbolt.
Although over the years, because of her intentional or unintentional guidance and influence on Tang Heng, Tang Heng's personality has become much gentler. But the hatred of the Tang family in his bones cannot be changed.
In the room, Tang Hang continued to say: "I thought that the lessons learned over the years are enough for you to converge. It seems that it is not enough."
"Your money is Lao Tzu's money! You eat fragrant and spicy food in the county town, but Lao Tzu eats chaffy vegetables in the country. You are not filial! Don't think that you can stand up by climbing on that Pei's kid. Lao Tzu will go to the government to sue you. Once you get sick, you have to come back and serve Lao Tzu obediently!"
"Really?" Tang Heng kicked Tang Yong in the leg: "Isn't it good to eat chaffy vegetables? I grew up eating this. Eating meat is also alive, and eating leftovers is also alive, and there are times of famine. Didn't you come back to life if you didn't stop? This is what my grandmother said!"
"I'm Xiao Nian. You are only worthy of eating wild vegetables. You are the father of Nie. You are only worthy of eating chaffy vegetables."
"Father, listen to my sin. I kind of persuaded you to stay at home and go out with nothing. If you accidentally fall and touch him, you can't move on the bed, do you think my stepmother is still willing to serve you? "Tang Heng's foot stepped on Tang Yong's calf and grind it hard.
What he has done to the family today is nothing more than copying his own experience. He is not guilty, but heartily!
Tang Yong was completely withered, and he thought of his old mother's inexplicable paralysis. At this moment, the tall Tang Hang above his head turned into a hell-killing evil spirit.
He got up to his feet, endured the sharp pain in his leg, and limped out the door.
Pei Yunxiao and Jinnian flashed quickly and stood by the door.
As soon as Tang Yong left, the villagers immediately surrounded him and watched Tang Hang, who had changed his aggrieved expression, walked out of the straw hut.
"Ah Hang, what's the situation?" Tang Qiang asked with concern.
"Uncle Qiang, fellow uncles and folks, I am not good, so everyone will follow suit." Tang Heng clasped his fists to apologize.
"Ah? It's not your father who took all the money, right?" everyone was shocked.
"This is the life-saving money collected by the county for everyone. It is the trust and trust in me, Tang Heng. How can I embezzle it!" Tang Heng's expression was sincere: "I gave the money I saved over the past few years. My father is now willing to go first. I'm just worried, will he come again..."
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly said, "Don't worry, Hangzi, he will come again and ask the village chief to break his leg!"
Tang Heng smiled reluctantly and greeted everyone to continue their work.
A few days later, news spread from the village that Tang Yong took the money to gamble, and he broke his leg when he lost and had no money to pay his debts. The villagers yelled okay secretly, saying that they deserved it, and they didn't make any waves.
Because the Tangjiazhuang canal digging and waterwheel construction project was finally successfully completed under the long-awaited and long-awaited project!
When the river water is arranged in a long dragon-like water truck, controlled by the villagers, it flows into the ditches on the hillside in one step and one step, and then flows to the crops that have been short of water for a long time, and came to the county magistrate Zhang Bai and wealthy households witnessed by Tangjiazhuang. The gentry had nothing to say.
Especially Zhang Bai was even more excited, as if the "shangshang" evaluation of this year's official assessment is already in front of his eyes.
