Chapter 169 Great Achievement (1)

Zhang Qi came to the county government again. As a small county, he was not afraid of delaying Wang Ju's handling of official duties. He came to chat and waited for Hu Qian to come back.

But the yamen runner said that Wang Ju took the county magistrate Bo to go down to deal with the dispute between Qing Village, southeast of Huachi County and Wu Village Water Source.

Zhang Shi didn't expect anything else, after all, Wang Ju was the magistrate of Huachi.

But he was also curious about how Wang Ju did things, so he said, "How do you get to Qingcun and Wucun?"

The yamen runner pointed out the direction, and Zhang Feng looked for it himself.

It was nearly ten miles away from his thoughts. They rode a donkey and walked for a while before they arrived. They happened to see Wang Ju summoning the two villages and listening to the speeches of the surname.

Zhang Feng walked over and greeted Wang Ju, Qiu County Magistrate, and Du Zhubo, and sat on the stone beside him to listen.

The villagers in the two villages talk about their reasons, and the mother talks about their reasons. There is no way to do this. Most areas in Shaanxi are short of water. Although Qingzhou is a little better than the Security Army, it is also short of water.

Often, in order to compete for water sources, both surnames in the two villages can have armed conflicts, including Wucun and Qingcun.

This case has been accumulated for more than ten years, but no county magistrate has handled it well.

After listening for a long time, Wang Ju said, "Dear fellow villagers, please don't worry, let me think of a solution."

Then he took Quan Erzheng, Qiu County Weiwei, Du Zhubo and others to observe the terrain of the cultivated land in the two villages.

Zhang Feng also followed Wang Ju to look behind him, but did not ask Hu Qian.

First, there is no need to ask.

When Chief Quan brought Hu Qian back, Hu Qian might not be the murderer, but if he couldn't bring him back, Hu Qian would definitely be the murderer if he ran away, and the case would be solved, and the responsibility for the arrest had nothing to do with him.

Second, values ​​are not viewed.

Regardless of Wang Ju's values ​​in his previous life or his early experience in this life, he would not discriminate against poor surnames, nor would he discriminate against military generals who could fight.

Zhang Qi lives in a family of officials. Not to mention his uncle, his father is also an official, he lives a worry-free life and feels more or less superior. He will not discriminate against military generals, but he will not respect them.

No matter who is right or wrong, but Sun Mian is determined to pursue the case, Wang Ju cannot offend Sun Mian now, so he unexpectedly will protect Wang Ju.

"Dalang, do you want to build a water dam?" Quan Erchang asked after walking for a while.

Wang Ju nodded. It was not that easy to build a water dam. You have to choose the terrain first, and there were still many troubles behind it. Zhang Ju listened curiously behind it. Don’t think that a magistrate can do much, especially in a small county like Huachi County. If Wang Ju is not strong and does not participate in the military, he will often be idle. Even if building a water dam is a big deal.

Or it is very sad. Like Magistrate Lin, if he encounters the murder of Zhao Dutou and his superiors are unwilling to close the case in a hasty way, it would be considered unlucky.

After watching for a long time, Wang Ju walked into the village again and walked around the two villages.

Although the Song Dynasty was densely populated, it would not be like that of later generations. Especially now, Huachi County still belongs to a vast and sparsely populated area, even if the two villages were behind Fengchi Town and Huachi Town. Therefore, the two villages were far apart, which was four miles away.

It's time to get dusk.

Wang Ju gathered the two village surnames again and said, "Everyone comes with me."

We took everyone to a low-lying saline-alkali land. There was a small river in the front, which belonged to a tributary of Huachi water. The water volume was sufficient during the flood season, but the river water would shrink sharply during the dry season. The two villages fought for this source of water. For this reason, several large-scale PKs were caused, and it was almost feuding.

Wang Ju asked: "That is Wu Qing and Wu Yuanwai, who is Zhang Mei and Zhang Yuanwai?"

Two middle-aged men walked out and said, "Minister Wang is just a young man, but he doesn't dare to take responsibility as an official."

The official is a rich or prestigious person.

Just now, Wang Ju was traveling around two villages and found that their houses had the best houses. By the way, he asked. The two families were indeed the best in the village, and they also owned more arable land.

But I can only say that the conditions in these two villages are considered good, but they cannot be called big families.

"You sit next to me. Dear fellow villagers, grabbing water is not a solution. You ask the government to deal with it. How to deal with it? Should the government be biased towards Wucun or Qingcun? But why can't we change the method?"

"Magistrate Wang, what method?" asked a brave man.

"Kangshuiyan, look at this saline-alkali land, which is more than two acres in size and cannot plant crops. If it is deserted, it will be deserted. If a water diversion canal is built, and then a dam and a steep gate are built, the river water will be brought in during the flood season. At that time, no one is short of water. Even if it is diverted to store water, other villages will not have any objections. But in the dry season, with the water diversion can be irrigated."

"Magic Magistrate Wang, you have a good idea, but where did we get the money?"

A small reservoir must have an inlet channel, an outlet channel and a dam. A solid reservoir must even use a stone dam. Don’t mention it, but no stone dam is used. Rammed earth can also be used as a dam, and the water level is not deep, so there is no need to be high for a dam.

This is mainly about Lao Li. The two villages of Lao Li can think of a solution, but there is another thing, that is, the steep gate. This is still a small reservoir, but it is much larger than the Wangjiazhai reservoir. If you want to divert water to each farm in the two villages, you must build several steep gates.

This steep gate requires money.

Wang Ju pressed his hands and asked at the person with the loudest voice: "Brother, what's your name?"

"My name is Zhang Silong." The man replied with a smile.

Through this military parade, most soldiers in the army dared not look down on Wang Ju, and the officials of Huachi County dared not look down on him either.

However, Qingcun and Wucun are behind, and there is a rural area. The news is blocked and Wang Ju is not clear about the situation. Therefore, what I see is that Wang Ju is peaceful and young, so that person is not afraid.

"Zhang Silong, if you have money, you can build a water dam? I asked you, if I give you two jin of money, can you build this water dam?"

"The magistrate, I don't understand."

"That's right, you have always complained that the government did not care about it before, not that it was not that the magistrates did not understand it before. But it just happened that I could understand it a little bit by bit."

Everyone understands that it is not only money, but if Wang Ju doesn’t come, even if he has money, he may not be able to build it.

The main reason is the war zone. Due to the dangers of war, Sima Guang once shouted heartbrokenly that the world is getting worse and worse, even peddlers and pawns can wear silk and stockings. It’s really weird. People don’t steal or rob, so why can’t they wear stockings? Are these people really inferior people? This reflects two problems. One is that Sima Guang’s mentality is really bad. The other is that the life of the Song Dynasty is indeed much better than other dynasties.

However, this is much better and has nothing to do with the Huachi surname.

The more you fall behind, the more blocked it will be, so who knows about water conservancy in Huachi?

Zhang Qi smiled slightly. In fact, Wang Ju was telling everyone that after passing this village, there would be no such store. Now that the water dam is not built, the officials of the Song Dynasty are frequently transferred, and the Tianwang Ju will be transferred away. If you want to repair it, you can't cooperate.

Wu Qing asked from the side: "Ming Gong, what should we do? Indeed, both villages are very poor and have to pay taxes."

"Don't say anything, I know everything, and I don't call me Ming Gong, just call him the magistrate of Prince Gui." Ming Gong was calling him the superior or respected elder, but I am not old yet, so what kind of prince is he called him?

"I called you two out alone because I walked in your two villages and found that your two families were in the best condition."

"We don't have much money," Wu Qing and Zhang Mei immediately complained at the same time.

"I heard from me that as long as you are careful in your calculations, there is no need to pay much. You can take out half of it and the remaining half will be distributed by the villagers. Don't frown and wait until the official finishes his words. Why are the saline-alkali land mostly in low-lying places?"

Wu Qing and Zhang Mei shook their heads at the same time.

"The reason is simple. Water flows to the location. Once it encounters heavy rain, a large amount of rainwater will rush to the low-lying places and then flow from low-lying areas to various rivers. The rainwater also brings mud and sand and soil. However, they are not static, but flowing. Therefore, the soil diluted into the rainwater has not settled, but instead swept away the soil in the low-lying areas, but precipitates heavier mud and sand. Therefore, saline-alkali land is often produced in low-lying areas."

"Minister Wang is right." The reason is a simple truth, but if you don't explain it, how many people will think about it.

"Mr. Wu and Mr. Zhang, I will ask again, is there a lot of sand or mud in this turbid river water?"

This was simple, and the two immediately replied: "There are too many muds."

The big show came, and Wang Ju said: "Yes, mud is always more than sand, but mud and water are easy to settle. So the Yellow River bed is getting higher and higher, and although mud rushes into the sea, the river sand settles down. So every time the Yellow River floods, the river water roars and leaves, scraping away the thin soil mud in the flooded area, but throwing the hateful river sand off, which has caused many saline-alkali land. But I also heard that Cheng Shi Meng, a famous minister of Renzong, did something in Hedong, and he went the opposite way. He hoarded the turbid water leaked from the mountain torrent, so that it flowed slowly, or was close to a static state. After the mountain torrent, the sun was exposed to the sun and the river evaporated, so what was left?"

"Milt and sand." Not only Wu Qing and Zhang Mei, but also other villagers answered at the same time.

"Yes, it's mud and sand, but in fact there is very little sand, and fertile silt is the main body. So Mr. Cheng took the Hedong surname to obtain five hectares of fertile silt fields. It turned out that one acre could get 57 dou of grain a year, which increased to two hectares, and the land price also doubled from the original two thousand."

Maybe Wu Qing and Zhang Mei had not understood it yet, and Wang Ju didn't sell the pass: "Wu Junwai, Zhang Junwai, many rivers in the east of the river are turbid, and Huachi are the same. Most of the rivers have become turbid water, especially when mountain torrents break out. Therefore, if this water weir is built, it will sooner or later be silted. At that time, this desolate saline-alkali land will become fertile soil. I asked you to pay half of the fee to build the weir, but the actual cost is only a few chunk. But I can make a contract with the villagers here for you to silt in the future, and the fertile soil obtained will be silted according to the fee."

More you get more.

Many people are really moved.

However, another young man asked loudly: "What should I do if the irrigation is done after the silt is flat?"

"In fact, it is not difficult to build a water dam. You mainly don't understand it. This year, I will teach you how to build it. Once you understand, you can imitate it. With so many desolate places, can't you choose a place to build a water dam? Think about it."

Wang Ju asked everyone to think about it.

Zhang Feng suddenly pulled Wang Ju aside and said, "Great achievements."

ps: One pile is one hu, ten tumblers, and the unit of volume. There are many mountains and few lands in Hedong, and the silted fields chaired by Cheng Shimeng are in Jiangzhou, so the land price is expensive, but the Shaanxi side is different, and it may be only one-quarter of it. But it also depends on that if it is the Hedong border, the land price will be low again.
