Chapter 206

Man Bao and Bai Shanbao turned their heads to stare at him and wanted to beat him, but their husband was present. They were smart and didn't do it.

Mr. Zhuang recovered and looked at the three carefree children. He couldn't help sighing.

Man Bao asked with concern, "Sir, what's the matter with you?"

Mr. Zhuang looked at her for a long time. After a half silence, he said, "the Minjiang river burst“

"Where is Minjiang River?"

After a little thought, Mr. Zhuang spread out a large piece of paper, summoned the three disciples to his eyes, took a pen and drew a picture, "Minjiang River is above Yizhou..."

Although several children are still young, Mr. Zhuang will occasionally tell them about geography. Since he talks about geography, he must start from the local place.

For example, Qili Village is baimaguan Town, and then Luojiang County, which is under the jurisdiction of Brazil County, mianzhou, Jiannan Road, and Yizhou, where Jiannan road is governed.

Therefore, in addition to the remote emperor's capital, the top of Qili Village is Yizhou.

As for how far Yizhou is from Qili Village, in Mr. Zhuang's words, it takes a day to ride a horse. It starts before dawn. Maybe you can enter the city when the city gate is closed.

It takes about three or four days to walk. The foot distance is calculated according to adults. If man Bao walks with his small arms and legs, he may have to walk for seven or eight days.

It is said that it is a very prosperous place with countless people and delicious food.

Of course, it is said that Mr. Zhuang and Mr. Bai said this, because only these two people in the whole village have been to Yizhou. The farthest place Lao Zhoutou has reached is Luojiang County, so he can't tell man Bao any stories about Yizhou.

The Minjiang River is the largest river in Yizhou, even the whole Jiannan road. Mr. Zhuang drew a flow chart on the paper and sighed: "the Minjiang River flows rapidly, especially in Yulei mountain. Due to the large slope, the water flow is very fast. During the pre-Qin period, every time the Minjiang River floods, the lives below Yizhou are ruined, so Shu is also known as a land of Ze."

Not only man Bao and Bai Shanbao, but also Bai Erlang got serious and listened with interest.

Mr. Zhuang pondered for a moment. Considering that they were still young, he could only tell them as a story, "it was not until the Qin Dynasty that the governor of Shu County Li Bing built Qianwei weir on the Minjiang River that the situation improved“

Then Mr. Zhuang told them about Qianwei weir. He used to be an official. In addition, he was a native of Shu. He not only read relevant books, but also went to Qianwei weir during his study tour.

Even now, he still admires the people who built the project more than 900 years ago.

Man Bao and Bai Shanbao went to see the construction of water conservancy projects, but it's the simplest. Open a ditch. The most complex is the dam built last year. Compared with Qianwei weir, it's not worth mentioning.

In that year, in order to divert the Minjiang River, Li Bing specially built Jindi and baopingkou to divert the Minjiang River water, and built flat flume and Feisha weir for flood control and irrigation. Since then, there have been few floods and droughts in the lower reaches.

Qianwei weir not only prevents flood, but also ensures the irrigation of thousands of hectares of good farmland downstream.

As a gentleman who once had ideals and ambitions and has been paying attention to the imperial policy, Mr. Zhuang is like fire at this time, because: "the last Yizhou Dahong was 17 years of Dade, and it has only been eight years, while the Feisha weir was overhauled in five years of Dazhen, only two years..."

Mr. Zhuang has a lot to say, but he doesn't know who to say, so he can only say it to three little dolls who can't understand.

Bai Erlang doesn't know whether he understands Bai Shanbao. Anyway, he understands Mr. Bai's subtext. His eyes are shining and look at man Bao.

Man Bao's eyes were also bright, and he also turned to Bai Shanbao.

More than an hour passed after Mr. Zhuang finished talking about Qianwei weir. The servants of the Bai family came to invite Mr. Zhuang to dinner. Master Bai was waiting for him to drink in the front hall.

Man Bao ate their lunch in the study. They still had half an hour's rest. If master Bai and Mr. Zhuang drank and talked for a long time, they might have another hour or two.

These days, the small stove is opened like this. The class time in the afternoon is very erratic.

As soon as Mr. Zhuang left, the next people brought up the meals of the three children, just like those in the school. In order not to let them be picky, the meals and dishes were cooked, one basin for each person, but each person had an extra bowl of soup.

Man Bao didn't think it was bad to eat at Bai's house. She dragged her bowl to Bai Shanbao and whispered to him, "like what's in the story book?"

Man Bao has found out the usage of the system. In addition to wandering around the mall, his favorite thing is to exchange story books with Keke.

Some books need a lot of points, but some books are few. Man Bao's favorite is the book with strong story and few points.

She not only read it herself, but also lent it to Bai Shanbao. Anyway, their books have been exchanged. So what man Bao said, Bai Shanbao understood.

Bai Shanbao nodded fiercely and said in the same low voice, "there must be corrupt officials."

"What a bad man!"

Bai Erlang sat diagonally opposite them and listened hard, but he couldn't hear anything. However, he firmly believed that they were speaking ill of him, so he put his chopsticks heavily on the table and asked angrily, "are you scolding me?"

The two people who were having a good discussion raised their heads to see him. At the same time, they tutted and said, "are you an official?"

"Do you have the ability to be a bad official?"

In their opinion, being an official requires great skills, and being a bad official requires even greater skills, because the bad people in the book, especially bad officials, are usually very smart, well, smarter than good officials.

Of course, bad officials will fail in the end, but man Bao and Bai Shanbao have made statistics. It takes many good officials to defeat each other. Usually, seven good people can defeat a bad person.

Therefore, in the little minds of the two children, bad officials are usually smarter than good officials.

So they looked at Bai Erlang critically and said, "maybe you can't be a good official."

Bai Shanbao: "when you are an official, you have to take an exam. I think you may not even be an official unless you study hard from now on."

Bai Erlang stared and asked, "what are you talking about? Good officials and bad officials. Did I say I want to be an official?"

"We are talking about the breach of the Minjiang River. It may be natural and man-made disasters." Man Bao pointed to the dark sky outside: "natural disaster is it, man-made disaster is bad officials."

Bai Shanbao said, "I don't know who the bad officials are."

Man Bao analyzed with his "many years" reading experience, "generally speaking, bad officials are senior officials. It must be senior officials who take the lead in repairing such a big thing as water conservancy projects, so the governor of Yizhou?"

Bai Shanbao: "and Jiannan road Jiedu envoy."

Man Bao: "there are Yizhou kings in Yizhou."

Bai Erlang was full of fog. "What are you talking about?"

Why can't he understand a word?
