The Fuyang River originates from the southern foot of the Fuyang Mountain in Cizhou on the eastern foot of the Taihang Mountains, so it is called the Fuyang River. It flows through Handan, Shunde Prefecture, north Zhili, and until Hejian Prefecture and Hutuo River converge, it is called Ziya River, connecting Tianjin Wei.

The Fuyang River is nearly 800 miles long and is a backbone river for comprehensive utilization such as flood control, irrigation, drainage, and shipping. It is also a natural river with water all year round, which is very rare in northern China cities.

Especially wherever you pass, you are all rich and water-less areas. Unblocking this river can not only prosper business, but also irrigate large areas of fertile land downstream, which can be said to benefit the people. The value is so great that it is simply immeasurable!

"The copper gang is iron-bottomed... I didn't expect that Runde, you have the ambition to recommend yourself and feel ashamed of being a teacher." Listening to He Jin's idea, Yao Jing couldn't help but look down on his admiration. He said to He Jin just now that he was short-sighted and had no resentment.

Because the saying of "copper and iron bottom" in the Fuyang River is related to Mao Sui.

During the Warring States Period, Mao Sui recommended himself to go to the State of Chu to seek help and resist Qin, which led to the alliance between Zhao and Chu, leaving behind the allusion of "Mao Sui's self-recommendation". However, Mao Sui's achievements in water control may be little known.

Because of his merits in recruiting troops, King Zhao appointed Mao Sui as the counselor and his fief of Quliang. However, the local terrain was low and floods in the Fuyang River often flooded, making people's lives very difficult.

After Mao Sui took office, he dredged the river channels and strengthened the embankment. In order to prevent the Fuyang River from breaking, he specially ordered the civilians to use red mud and mud to apply red glue and mud to thicken the bottom of the river and the river gang four or five feet thick, leaving no gaps.

From then on, the Fuyang River not only lifted the risk of collapse, but also the river channel was unobstructed. The development of water conservancy has greatly developed agriculture in this area, and the people have enough food and clothing to live and work in peace and contentment.

When the Later Zhao King inspected the people's situation, he heard about Mao Sui's deeds in governing the Fuyang River, and said happily: "In this way, will the Fuyang River become a copper gang bottom?"

Since then, the saying of copper gang iron bottom has been passed down from generation to generation.

Unfortunately, the iron bottom of the copper gang back then could not withstand the changes and erosion of the ever-changing world.

In particular, there are many tributaries of the Fuyang River, which are located on the windward slope of the Taihang Mountains. The source is short, the slope is steep, the flow is rapid, the flood peak is high, the river channel discharge is large at the top and small at the bottom and curved. Every time the flood season is not released, it will cause floods to become disasters.

More than a thousand years of erosion and diverting the rivers have made this large area either become a river in the flood season or uninhabited when it is dried up. The functions of irrigation, shipping, flood control and drainage are all lost, which makes He Jin feel heartbroken!

After all, this is a lot of money!

"Master, Mao Sui used red glue and soil back then, which was the best material at that time. But what is the most suitable material to really clear the river channel?" As he said that, he pointed to the cement lump under his feet and said, "It's this cement concrete that is as strong as stone and not leaking in water!"

After He Jin woke up at this little, Yao Jing suddenly realized and was shocked: "Runde, it turns out that you have planned everything long ago?"

"Yes." He Jinning then focused on it and explained: "In terms of materials, it is this cement; in terms of technical exploration, the Hao family must have professional talents; in terms of funds, the money raised by Liu Jiayiyan and Xiu'er's investment should be enough; as for labor, of course, these huge disaster victims."

"The only thing I lack now is the policy support of the government. As long as the master can get rid of this matter, I will guarantee that I will be able to clear the Fuyang River!"

Yao Jing was about to express his bold words at the moment, but after thinking a little, he couldn't help but smile bitterly: Because of the policy, He Jin had actually done it for him.

When choosing to clear this canal, He Jin has taken into account all aspects of the problem.

First of all, the imperial court can have a multi-functional canal without spending a penny, and fools will agree; secondly, local governments and prefectures can achieve great political achievements by just a cooperation; as for the victims, with such a big project, they will have a job and will have a happy life.

Of course, the biggest profiter among them is He Jin.

Once the canal is cleared, as the largest investor, he will of course enjoy the guarantee of tax returns. Not only will he suffer any losses, but he also opens up a huge and continuous financial path.

What’s even more hateful is that this guy has long held the wasteland on the canal bank. After the canal is unblocked, merchants gather and goods are constantly coming. Any business on the shore will make a fortune!

But will Yao Jing disagree?

Unless the water from the Fuyang River is all in his mind, he will not disagree! Because once the canal is cleared, the political achievements of his governor will be as great as the sky.

When Su Dongpo dredged West Lake, he only presided over the construction of a dike of less than six miles, which was famous in history. This canal, which is 800 miles long, benefited the entire Northern Zhili, was completely unblocked under his initiative, which was enough to make him soar to the sky and be remembered forever!

After all the calculations, He Jin took care of all the major aspects, and even if there was a small impact, he could easily settle it. It was said that he was the support of the policy of running away, but in fact he gave up his great achievements to himself.

Just like before, he used anthracite to rescue the lonely people in Cizhou, he did it without any leakage and satisfies all parties! However, this time he was even more ambitious and big-ticket!

Such a method can be said to be a talent for heaven and earth, and its future achievements are immeasurable!

Thinking of this, Yao Jing couldn't help but look at He Jin and asked, "Runde, why did you give in to such a great achievement?"

But He Jin waited here for a long time and had only such a strange question from Yao Jing. He couldn't help but reply truthfully: "It's just a canal, what's the point of making a fuss?"

"Besides, even if I want to make achievements, how much can I get? On the contrary, a hundred birds are worse than a bird in my hand. I will make a profit first."

"..." Once again, Yao Jing was speechless.

Because He Jin's statement was too correct, under the strict level, he, as a minor official, could not make any achievements. Instead, he gave up his skills and gained benefits and fame were the wise choice.

However, can you turn a blind eye to the talents who are of great benefit to the country and the people and let the pearls be covered with dust?

No, as a child of the Holy Gate, it is necessary to select talents without avoiding relatives.

Such a person should help him break free from the turbidity and give him a high position as soon as possible! In this way, he can show his talents to the fullest, benefit the people of the court, and leave a brilliant mark in history books!

With such determination, Yao Jing's expression improved a lot, and the eyes that looked at He Jin became subtle and softer.

But He Jin is scared here.

Because Yao Jing's eyes were clearly like Shen Xiu'er looking at him, full of love and doting. This is...what are you going to do!

He Jin, who was so scared that his scalp was numb, quickly changed the subject and asked, "What's wrong, Master? Is there anything wrong with this?"

"No, no...it's perfect." Yao Jing then curled the tenderness in his eyes, smiled and asked, "I wonder when you plan to start construction?"

He Jin pondered for a while and said with a smile: "It will be smoother if things are slower. The victims are weak in physique and need some time to recover. Investigating the old canal path, planning the construction plan, and determining the operating strategy of the canal will also take time to figure out these."

"In addition, the master also needs to write a letter to Zhangde Mansion and even the court to seek policy support. As well as the firing of cement, we must also step up stockpiling... It takes about a month and a half, and after everything is clear, we can start working on the work."

When Yao Jing and Chen Ming heard this, they couldn't help but nodded deeply again: Well, this kid is still a scheming and familiar spirit, and there is no sign of the young man's frigidity at all.

So, Yao Jing waved his hand and asked Hao Fuyou to retreat first, and suddenly said in a daze: "Runde, you are already fifteen years old this year, right? You are so acknowledged that you are just about fifteen years old and are determined to learn."

After hearing this, He Jin suddenly looked bitter and said, "Master, I'm very busy these days and I don't have time..."

But Yao Jing ignored He Jin and turned around and looked into the distance, saying, "The sea of ​​knowledge is endless, the great way is gradually advancing, and even the saints climbed the East Mountain and the Small Lu, and the Mount Tai is small. You must always study diligently and try your best to climb high to achieve something."

"Master, I really don't have time to ate that eight-legged essay. I want such a big project, no matter how I want it..." He Jin was so anxious that he sweated. I wonder why Yao Jing was sucking crazy.

But Yao Jing was still crazy, smiled strangely, then left: "Hmph, when it's time to be smart, I'm not smart!"

He Jin, who was confused, couldn't help but scratch his head, but then he saw Chen Ming's winking look, and the spiritual platform lit up: This, is this cheap master who leaked the questions of the county examination to me in advance?
