...
With his life at stake, Wang Shouzhe's mind turned quickly.
He looked at Liu Ruolan deeply with a doted look: "The craftsmanship of the lady is really too much for her husband. If you do it for your husband every day, how can you control it for your husband? Don't you let your husband overeating? Over time, it is naturally harmful to the body. Isn't it murdering the husband?"
"Therefore, the lady can just go to the kitchen occasionally, which can also make her husband think about it."
The cold color on Liu Ruolan's face gradually dissipated, and her pretty eyes glanced at Wang Shouzhe happily: "The husband is really talented, and even the praise of people is so thrilling, ingenuity."
In order to divert Liu Ruolan’s attention, Wang Shouzhe grabbed her waist and said in a low voice, “I’ve been out of the house these days, everything is inconvenient. I haven’t been able to teach the lady's "Xuanshui True Art" for a long time. ."
Liu Ruolan's pretty face blushed slightly, and she whispered: "I may not have checked the progress of my husband's "Changchun True Art" for a long time. It's just that the two children are still studying in the study room next door..."
The couple had been on business for too long, and they hadn't caught their homework for a long time, which caused the two little guys to release themselves. Right now, they made up for the progress.
The bear child is really troublesome.
Wang Shouzhe shook his head regretfully, as he was about to focus on the sand table.
But Liu Ruolan blushed and bit her lip and said, "It's fine~ Anyway, they don't delay homework for a day or two. I ask Qiao'er to take care of the children. Let's go to Shuiyue Tiange to practice~"
"okay."
After thinking about it, Wang Shouzhe felt that Liu Ruolan could not be beaten, and acted according to his words.
After half an hour.
In the study.
Wang Liyao and Wang Zongan are doing their homework desperately with serious faces.
Mother said that she would come to check her homework later.
At a young age, they already knew how to watch their words and colors, and knew that they would rather offend dad a hundred times at home than provoke their mothers to get angry once.
Therefore, they are very hardworking.
However, after waiting for a long time, I didn't see my mother come to check my homework.
"Aunt Qiao'er." Wang Liyao blinked her beautiful eyes and said suspiciously, "Will your mother go to practice with Daddy again?"
"This..." Qiao'er explained with a cold sweat and a dry smile, "Miss and aunt are both arrogances, so you should cultivate hard."
The siblings looked at each other.
Come on, today's homework has been done in vain.
Not every two or three days of this practice, the parents can't come back.
"An'an, go, my sister will take you out to play." Wang Liyao suddenly became energetic.
"Well, sister is not so good." Wang Zongan was a little guilty after all.
He is not as bold as his sister.
"What are you afraid of? It's not that you don't understand your parents, they just think that we are an eyesore, so they found a place to hide quietly."
Wang Liyao grabbed Wang Zongan and walked out swayingly. By the way, he also exhorted: "Aunt Qiao'er, you have to cover us a little bit."
Qiaoer's face was speechless, and her heart bury her.
Miss, uncle, how many years have you used that excuse? Even the little lady can't hide it, can you innovate?
...
In the next few days, the weather continued to rain again.
The water level in Anjiang keeps rising.
Wang Shouzhe received information that the Anjiang River is close to the middle and lower reaches of the river, and many low-lying places have been flooded, causing waterlogging.
Because Changningwei is on the north of Anjiang River, the terrain along the coast is steep, and the shape of the inland is also high. As long as the drainage is proper, it will not be flooded for a while.
In fact, the terrain of Pingan Town is mostly hilly, and there are many low-lying areas. The overall terrain is much lower than that of Anjiang River.
This is why, in this area of Ping'an Town, no one has come to open up wasteland. If this is a good piece of land, where can I get Zhou Xuan's ancestor?
But for Wang, Ping An Town is their foundation. They have no choice but to manage it carefully.
Water conservancy projects have never happened overnight. Throughout the journey, Wang Shouzhe has never relaxed about this.
Dredging and filling soil in Zhuwei Lake is just the beginning.
Over the years, he has been doing work such as dredging river channels, opening up water channels, consolidating dikes, and building drain gates. This heavy rain was also the time to test his hard work over the past eight or nine years.
The entire Wang family, and even many of Wang's collateral children, participated in this flood control work.
The first to bear the brunt is the Anjiang embankment.
Starting from the ancestor Zhou Xuan, he continued to build and strengthen the embankment. Every year, a part of manpower and material resources are invested in it.
When Wang Shouzhe arrived, he paid more attention to the construction and consolidation of the **** in the safe section of the Anjiang River.
Today's Ping An Wang clan is not only rich, but also holds a big weapon in his hand, which is the legendary cement.
Simple gravel, gravel and cement, mixed with water according to the proportion, becomes the famous concrete.
However, the time left for Wang Shouzhe is too short. At present, it has only built stone slopes and concrete embankments in the most dangerous sections, accounting for only one-third of one hundred and forty and fifty miles.
But even so, compared with the original river bank, the ability to resist floods is no longer the same.
Wang Shouzhe checked the river embankment all the way through the rain.
As the water level rose, some of the river embankments that were still safe had some hidden dangers. He immediately dispatched tribesmen to organize tenant farmers and civilians to temporarily reinforce those embankments.
At the same time, he also checked the flood drain gates.
On the earth, some drainage gates are pumped by high-power water pumps. It is not difficult to make a simple water pump, but the difficulty is that there is no electricity in this world.
However, human wisdom is endless.
In this world, there are naturally some waterwheels for irrigation.
Wang Shouzhe has done a lot of work over the years, and naturally also includes studying the improvement plan of the waterwheel with professionals.
Among the three flood drainage gates, Fenggu Gate at Fenggu Farm was built by Zhou Xuan's ancestor.
Over the past eight years, Wang Shouzhe has repaired and reconstructed this gate many times, which has made it a major drainage outlet.
Today, there is a "water dragon formation" on each side of the tall gate.
"Water Dragon Array" is very pleasant to say, but it is actually a large waterwheel with a relatively simple structure.
When the river water flows, it will push the waterwheel like a small ferris wheel to rotate. The rotation of the waterwheel uses the more precise and durable bearings and gears created by the mixer to perform work on a simple structured reciprocating pump.
And this reciprocating pump will pump the water from the gate into Anjiang.
The waterways in the gate extend in all directions, connecting all the waterways and lakes in Ping'an Town.
Wang Shouzhe has a lot of earth knowledge. Although these are not the scope of his proficiency, he knows the general direction, and there is no shortage of smart craftsmen and refiners in this world.
With the cooperation of the two parties, the "Water Dragon Array" is now available.
Of course, this large waterwheel is not directly exposed in the river.
Wang Shouzhe drove piles at the edge of the river, and built a large foundation with concrete, etc., forming a eight-shaped water channel with a wide front and a narrow back at the bank of the gate.
In this way, more water can come in from the bell mouth, and as the channel of the rear channel narrows, the water flow will be faster, which will generate more power for the waterwheel.
At the passageway in front of the waterwheel, there is also a winch lifting gate with a width of two feet. When the waterwheel is not needed to run, just lower the gate to cut off the water flow.
In addition, there is also a grid of iron bars on the bell mouth to intercept all kinds of larger garbage or ferocious aquatic beasts that wash down with the water, and prevent damage to the waterwheel.
The two water dragon formation projects at Fenggu Gate are very simple in principle and structure, but it took Wang Shouzhe five full years to communicate with craftsmen and refiners, using small structures to continuously try and improve, and formally invest in the construction after they were improved, costing money both before and after. Thousands of dry gold.
Of course, the effect is also very obvious.
The person in charge of this gate is a capable Wang family collateral. As soon as he saw Wang Shouzhe, he greeted him and said excitedly: "Qi, Patriarch, the two water dragon formations are running very smoothly."
The huge waterwheel rotates steadily in the turbulent water channel. It seems to be slow, but in fact its speed is not slow, just because the outer circumference of the waterwheel is relatively large, it seems to be slow.
Driven by the waterwheel, water continuously spouted from the pipe openings aimed at Anjiang, like two large white water dragons.
Such a scene is the origin of the name of the Water Dragon Array!
"Twelve o'clock, if the water dragon array fails, repair it at all costs."
Wang Shouzhe is also quite proud of seeing his hard work for many years and investing heavily in the Water Dragon Array, playing an active role.
He regards Ping'an Town as his territory and his home. He will naturally think of all means to make it like an iron bucket, hoping that it can survive various natural disasters.
It has been estimated before that when a large water dragon formation is running at full speed, it can drain about 200,000 cubic meters a day.
There are a total of six such water dragon formations at the three drainage gates. Running at full speed, it can drain about 1.2 million cubic meters a day.
It sounds like a big number.
But in fact, take Zhuwei Lake as an example. Zhuwei Lake has about 10,000 acres of water, and when it is full, there will be about 28 million cubic meters of water.
These six large water dragon formations are running at full speed, and it will take more than 20 days to empty Zhuwei Lake!
Not to mention the water content of the large and small rivers and canals in Ping'an Town, as well as the small lakes dotted with stars.
Because of this, each year before the rainy season comes, these six water dragon formations have to start to operate ahead of schedule to lower the water level of the rivers and lakes in the entire Ping'an Town to prevent the embarrassing situation that there is no time to drain the water after the flood season.
Moreover, it is still raining continuously. Even if most of the rainwater is absorbed by the land or enters the groundwater and other channels, the remaining small part of the water is not a small amount to be discharged into the river.
It is also because of this that even if the six large water dragon formations are operating at full capacity, the water in the river is still rising a little bit.
Although slow, it is still rising.
Fortunately, before the rainy season began, the water was discharged in advance, which kept the water level in Ping'an Town at a low level. Otherwise, maybe a lot of wheat fields have been flooded with river water.
Wang Shouzhe's expression was a bit solemn.
After all, the six water dragon formations are still too few.
Even if this year's flood season is far worse than the two floods in history, it is almost at the limit of the water dragon.
After eight years, the water conservancy project that was gradually built is still in its rudimentary form. Wang Shouzhe secretly said that once this flood season has passed, it is necessary to increase investment in water conservancy construction again.
Anyway, the entire Ping An Town belongs to the Wang family. No matter how much investment it is, it is only a long-term investment. It will pay back if one less flood occurs.
In the next six or seven days, the entire Wang family led 40,000 people in Ping'an Town into the tense flood fight.
At this time, no outsider can help Wang.
After all, the flood season is fierce, and all sides are threatened by floods.
During this period, there were gaps in three embankments, and the situation was almost out of control. Both Wang Shouzhe and his wife were on the front line personally and devoted themselves to the fight against floods.
In the face of the surging power of nature, they can only play a very limited role in the Lingtai Realm, but with them, everyone will have the backbone. With the concerted efforts of the Wang family and all the townspeople, they just blocked the gap time and time again and prevented the occurrence of floods.
finally.
After the sky cleared for two consecutive days, the turbulent current of Anjiang River finally slowed down slightly, and the total water level began to slowly drop, and it dropped by more than half a meter in two days.
This also shows that the flood season has finally passed.
This also means that the town of Ping'an successfully survived the catastrophe this time and survived the flood season that is most prone to floods.
However, everyone in Ping'an Town still did not relax their vigilance, and still worked together to consolidate the weak points of the embankment and guard against repeated flood seasons.
So, another few days have passed.
The water level in Anjiang continues to drop, and the water level is gradually leveling off.
The flood season finally passed completely, and Ping'an Town immediately fell into a cheering celebration~www.wuxiaspot.com~ This time the flood season came fiercely, instead of more than ten or twenty years ago, the flood disaster is almost inevitable and will cause great harm.
But this time, with the exception of some reductions in production after waterlogging in some areas, the overall grain output has remained at a relatively high level.
Most importantly, only a few people died in this flood season.
This is a great victory!
Although Wang's reputation in Ping'an Town has long since exploded, after this time, the people's sentiment has risen to a large level again.
There were celebrations everywhere in Ping'an Town, but Wang Shouzhe and his wife were paralyzed in the house and did not go out for two full days.
They are all exhausted.
It wasn't until two days later that Wang Shouzhe's confidant "Love General" Wang Mei secretly came to report on the work, and Wang Shouzhe barely managed to cheer up.
Wang Shouzhe met Wang Mei secretly in the study.
He flipped through various information compiled by Wang Mei, and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Haha~ How many years have passed since he put down so many bait, the black hand behind the scenes sixty years ago finally couldn't hold back, revealing a flaw!
Next, I am afraid that the situation will rise again.
The entire Changningwei is probably about to enter the sudden change of the situation.
"Wang Mei, thank you very much." Wang Shouzhe glanced at Wang Mei with a slightly complicated expression.
The reason why she looks complicated is because of her dress today.
Her dress is obviously similar to the uniform style of the female disciples of the Purple House Academy, with heroic appearance and feminine beauty.
The most important thing is.
Her sorcery makeup has reached the stage of innovation.
She wears a ponytail, her eyebrows are slightly raised, her face is frosty, and she has a rustle and heroic attitude, as if she has the temperament of a certain senior lady goddess.
Throw her to the academy, and she must be another goddess-senpai who is overwhelmingly popular.
