Chapter 851

"Look at the drawings, the scale of the reservoir is not large."

Shao Guang is worthy of being a Mohist disciple specializing in water conservancy. The selected construction site is excellent. It seems that it has been carefully calculated.

He chose a pocket basin with deep terrain, large reservoir capacity and considerable catchment area. There is also a natural "dam" in this place. We only need to dig out the reservoir and build an artificial river with a length of about 100 Li to introduce the branch water of Dongqing mother river into the reservoir

"The scale is really small, but if it is completed, the people of Shangyang county will no longer worry about drought and famine."

Jiang Pengji did not respond easily this time. Instead, she frowned to calculate her gains and losses.

Today, there are no blasting tools, let alone advanced excavation equipment. It is really difficult to build a reservoir by relying on manpower.

Money is not a problem, the key is not enough people.

"This matter... Let it go for a while..." Jiang Pengji said, "wait until there are enough people to attack Northern Xinjiang."

In the first sentence, Wei Ci's heart was still a little heavy. In the second sentence, the smile on his lips could no longer be hidden.

Jiang Pengji said, "the kitchen has prepared supper. Go and use some first to avoid hurting your stomach."

Weici's ears were red again and he bowed his head to thank his grace.

Jiang Pengji lengbuding asked, "it's dark now. Will Zixiao stay for the night?"

Wei Ci's hands trembled, and the porcelain bowl in his left hand almost fell on the food table.

Without waiting for his further overreaction, she said, "the guest room has been empty. If you stay, it will save you from running around."

Wei Ci was relieved and declined Jiang Pengji's kindness.

Anyway, he is also a male. If he sleeps here at night, it will be bad for the Lord's reputation.

After a simple meal, Weici hurriedly got up and left, as if some terrible beast was chasing him behind.

Jiang Pengji pinched her chin thoughtfully, looked at the back of Wei Ci and thought deeply.

"The advice given by those unreliable guys is really useful? Can frogs be cooked in warm water?"

She muttered to herself, and her low voice was dispersed by the night wind.

The next day, Weici got up early in the morning.

Although he came back from Shangjing temporarily, he habitually went to the government hall.

Just arrived at the government office, Li Yun ran up to him. He looked very nervous. It seemed that something big had happened.

Weici didn't respond in time and was almost hit by Li Yun. Fortunately, the latter had good skills and braked immediately.

Otherwise, according to Weici's physical quality, don't be hit by Li Yun.

Wei Ci was terrified and said, "Han Mei, the government office is not allowed to walk quickly. If you are surprised by the Lord, what can you do?"

Li Yun knew he had made a mistake and hurriedly apologized to Wei CI. Before Wei CI could answer, he hurried to leave.

"Han Mei?"

Wei Ci was shocked and guessed that something big had happened around Li Yun.

Otherwise, how does the other party look like this?

Li Yun flustered and said, "I heard that a poisonous snake was mixed in the stables. I was frightened."

stable?

Mixed with a poisonous snake?

Wei Ci was stunned. He didn't understand the exact meaning of this for a moment.

There was a poisonous snake in the stables. What was Li Yun doing so flustered? Was it his favorite horse bitten by a poisonous snake?

But... Dabai seems to be the Lord's mount. If you want to panic, it's also the Lord's panic. Where can you get Li Yun?

Prompted by curiosity, Weici followed up and asked Li Yun as he walked.

When asked carefully, he knew that the foal in Dabai's belly had been promised to Li Yun by the Lord. Li Yun looked forward to the birth of the foal for several months. He saw that another month would be the delivery period of Dabai. Unexpectedly, such a thing happened temporarily.

The poisonous snake had been caught, and the horse in the stable was not hurt, but da Bai was frightened and seemed to be giving birth prematurely.

Premature foals are not easy to live. If a mare has dystocia, the hope of survival is slim.

Li Yun looked forward to the foal for so long. When he heard the news, he almost didn't cry.

Dabai and Xiaobai live in the same stable, but in order to take care of the pregnant woman Dabai who is about to give birth, Xiaobai is assigned to another place by the groom. Xiaobai seems to know Dabai's situation. He is very anxious. Instead of being gentle and shy in the past, Xiaobai doesn't stop rubbing the horse's hooves on the ground and tries to break through the fence. Anyway, Xiao Bai became fierce after the war horse who had been on the battlefield. The groom's legs trembled in front of him.

Seeing Li Yun coming and taking care of the two horses, the groom was so excited that he seemed to see the Savior.

Although the stables were kept clean, they still had a peculiar smell.

Li Yun deals with horses all year round. He doesn't care about these smells, and Wei Ci's face remains the same.

In the stable, Dabai lay on the ground covered with soft hay, with a huge stomach and some mood. He looked very uneasy.

Seeing the stranger coming, Dawei kept blaming and whining. He seemed to want to stand up and lay down after working hard for a long time.

Wei CI said, "what's the use of calling Li Xiaowei here for such a thing as mare foal?"

If you don't prepare to deliver the baby to Dabai, run to find Li Yun, who doesn't understand the shit. Why don't you delay one body and two lives!

The groom is too anxious to cry. It's not that he doesn't want to deliver the baby to Dabai. It's clear that Dabai and Xiaobai are too fierce and can't get close at all.

In the absence of the Lord, he can only find Li Yun. Anyway, he must comfort the mare first.

After a little observation, Weici also found the groom's dilemma, and his eyebrows could not help tightening.

"Han Mei, go and pull Xiaobai away. Don't let him make trouble here."

Weici asked the groom to take the loop, neatly beat the loop, fixed the wide sleeve, and exposed two slender white arms.

Animals are different from people. Communication between them is a problem.

Fortunately, little Bai has enough spirit. In the face of Li Yun, he can barely calm down. How can he hold him down as a groom?

"Da Bai should be hurt. I'm afraid he can't stand up. It depends on the situation. He's still the first child. I'm afraid he won't be born without external help." Weici asked the groom to get hot water and scissors. He was about to enter the stables where Dabai was. The groom was so frightened that his soul was about to fly.

Da Bai is very aggressive. Will Wei CI come out when he goes in?

The groom couldn't stop him. He had to close his eyes in despair for fear that Wei CI would be bitten to death by big white.

The result was unexpected. The originally aggressive Da Bai was particularly docile in front of Wei Ci and would rub his arm from time to time.

The groom murmured, "isn't this the Lord's horse..."

Why is Mao so close to Weici?

"Bear it, or the baby won't come out."

Wei cishun's white mane was not too dirty. He knelt on the ground covered with straw, cleaned his hands with warm water and cleaned his horse's hair.

Li Yun felt that his three outlooks were shattered. He carefully lay down outside the fence and stared at Wei Ci's actions for a moment.

"Wait -- Zixiao, will you receive the birth?"

Weici didn't answer. He just put his hand in and carefully found out the foal's current position to help it get in a good position.

He not only received the delivery, but also seriously invited many midwives, with rich experience.

In the past, I used to practice with mares or other animals. Only two practices were given to people, which is also a very distant memory.
