Red Mansion: I relied on the AFK system to create a dynasty

People began to be betrayed at the eldest princess's house.

Because the eldest princess no longer needs so many young and beautiful girls.

The top girls are bought first, while those with average looks cannot be sold at high prices.

Cen Mingche found someone to wrap them up.

It has to be said that the eldest princess has spent a lot of money. Even these maids who are not beautiful or versatile enough are all well-groomed.

Just enough to be betrothed to the private soldiers raised by Zhuangzi.

It's not like breeding animals - you have to choose someone with good character, willing to work hard, and be pleasing to the eyes of the girls.

It can also be regarded as setting an example to other soldiers.

As long as you obey orders, you will not only be promoted and make a fortune, but you will also be able to start a family. Even if you die, your wife and children will be taken care of for you.

Cen Mingche needs the loyalty of these people.

In fact, people in this era are really easy to be satisfied. That is, their wives and children are warm on the kang, they have enough food to eat every meal, and the family members will not starve to death. If they can still have a meal of meat during the New Year, it will be a beautiful day.

Although Cen Mingche cannot let everyone in the world live such a life for the time being, he can still let the people at hand live such a life.

If a dynasty can make 80.00% of the people in the world live such a life, then this dynasty will be a prosperous age among prosperous times.

While Cen Mingche was secretly raising troops, there was an urgent call from North China.

The Yellow River flooded again.Fertile farmland on both sides of the Taiwan Strait was reduced to wasteland, and tens of thousands of people were displaced.

Although the Yellow River is the "Mother River", its temper has always been unflattering. It has changed its course and flooded several times, which has brought huge impact to the country.

The Yellow River is famous for being "good at silting, good at breaking up, and good at migrating". It has always been said that "it breaks through twice every three years and changes its course once every hundred years."

Historically, the range of changes in the lower reaches of the Yellow River has roughly reached the Haihe River in the north and the Jianghuai River in the south.According to historical documents, the lower reaches of the Yellow River were breached and flooded more than 1500 times, and there were more than 20 major diversions, forming the old course of the Yellow River.

The Yellow River carries 16 billion tons of sediment every year, of which 12 billion tons flow into the sea. The remaining [-] million tons remain in the lower reaches of the Yellow River for many years, forming alluvial plains that are conducive to planting.

However, the accumulation landform formed by the transportation and accumulation of sediment by the Yellow River is the fundamental cause of the breach.

Generally speaking, with Mengjin as the apex, a large delta that reaches Tianjin in the north and the Huaihe River in the south is the scope of the Yellow River's diversion and migration.

The sediment transported by the Yellow River formed fertile land and was the fundamental reason why the Yellow River burst its banks several times and changed its course.

It can be said that one drink and one peck are not predetermined.

And these were already within Cen Mingche's expectations.

His time at the Ministry of Industry was not in vain.

Based on the Ministry of Industry's Yellow River water control reports in recent years, Cen Mingche can clearly see that the terrain on both sides of the Yellow River has become higher in the south and lower in the north. In just the past two years, the Yellow River's northward decisive battle is inevitable.

Therefore, he hurriedly produced cement and took the time to cultivate high-yielding crops.

The Yellow River has experienced four huge floods even at the beginning of the new century. Cen Mingche does not think that he can control the Yellow River well in this era when light industry has not yet developed.

But at least he could do something.

However, several of his brothers will definitely fight hard for such a "good thing" to gain credit.

Even if Cen Mingche is now in the Ministry of Works and goes to control floods, he can't resist the competition among his brothers.

However, they probably don't know that sometimes fighting is the best way to fight.

Emperor Qian threw the folding piece angrily.

"Absurd! Absurd! Over the years, how much thought and how much money the imperial court has spent on controlling the Yellow River! It actually burst! Oh, the Yellow River changed its course! The country was thousands of miles long! Corpses were everywhere! The city was full of hungry people!"

Emperor Qian paced back and forth in the study irritably.

"You should tell me what to do now!"

The six elders of the cabinet gathered here and lowered their eyes in silence, seeming to be thinking about countermeasures.

The six ministers and the princes who have now entered the court to listen to the government are also sitting under the hall.

The Yellow River changed its course and burst its embankments, flooding hundreds of miles of land and drowning countless people. For a country, this is really no less important than an army approaching the city.

Cen Mingche looked at his nose with his eyes, and his nose at his heart, and remained silent.

Sweet potatoes, potatoes and corn have just been planted and have not yet been harvested for the first time, so they cannot yet be used as food for disaster relief.

Cement can be used to cut off floods, but it requires a lot of manpower and material resources.

Today's big cadres cannot achieve unity between the army and the people and are not afraid of sacrifice.

So Cen Mingche will not come forward.

The fact is that cruel.

If we want to control floods, we can only wait until the diversion of the Yellow River is completed, the floods subside, and the victims are almost dead before the court can intervene.

Give the remaining living people a bite to eat, prevent and control plague, burn corpses, re-measure the land, build dams, and resume production.

Now the Yellow River floods are in full swing, whoever intervenes is a fool.

Not only can it not save the people, but it is also very likely that you will be involved in it.

When it comes to being cold-blooded, Cen Mingche is indeed cold-blooded.

What he has to do now is to push this hot potato out quietly.

It's actually quite easy.

Because he can see clearly, but others can't see clearly.

Both Cen Mingyuan and Cen Mingshen are eyeing this job.

Even the fourth prince Cen Mingsu and the fifth prince Cen Minghuai, who had just entered the dynasty and had not even been crowned kings, wanted a share of the matter.

It is not incomprehensible, after all, in the eyes of these well-dressed princes, they are here to build their reputation. The real work is done by the ministers. They only need to stand high and wait for the credit to be delivered to them.

They don’t understand the difficulty of it, and they don’t know what they’re up against.

But Cen Mingche didn't want to get involved and do this thankless job.

The scene was silent for a while.

Emperor Qian was furious.

"What do I do to feed you? I usually write letters to remonstrate for big things, and I often write tens of thousands of words to please An Zhezi. But now something has happened, and all of them have become mute? Huh?"

Cen Mingche thought for a while and spoke first.

"Reporting to my father, I don't have access to the river, but cement is a powerful tool for building embankments and dams. I would like to supervise the production of a large amount of cement and transport it to the disaster-stricken areas to build water conservancy."

Emperor Qian's anger calmed down a bit.

"Okay, let's do it."

Cen Mingche and the Minister of Industry looked at each other and turned to leave.

Disaster relief requires money and food. These need to be raised, and support from the Ministry of Household Affairs is also needed.

When going to disaster areas, in order to prevent disaster victims from causing chaos and to escort supplies, the Ministry of War needs to intervene.

The Minister of Hubu is Cen Mingyuan's father-in-law, and the Minister of War is Cen Mingshen's mother's family.

These two people are bound to fight.

Maybe Xiaosi and Xiaowu will get a piece of the pie.

However, Cen Mingche did not intend to wade into this muddy water.

He would have to wait until later to get into the game.

He needs a justifiable excuse so that he can temporarily settle down on providing cement.

This opportunity will come soon.

Cen Mingche's princess is pregnant.

This child came just in time.
