The Female Assistant of Wei Yuyan Shuangfei

In the blink of an eye, it was the end of March.

After a whole month, the Chamber of Commerce had grown to a certain size. Shen Yancheng built several warehouses to store goods, which were all the Chamber of Commerce's assets.

As for what the Chamber of Commerce should do and how to do it, he would not interfere, just wait for the money to be divided. But if there is a demand, he would also raise it to the Chamber of Commerce, and Shen Yancheng would mediate.

Although the Chamber of Commerce has not achieved a huge amount of money every day, it is still a small gathering place. Many of those who left at the beginning are now regretting their decision.

What a pity! Shen Yancheng did not plan to open a back door. If you miss it, you miss it. A businessman's vision and courage are a must.

Obviously! Those who did not enter the Chamber of Commerce did not have the courage and vision, so there was no need for him to absorb them.

The river embankment in Shanghe Township was completed a few days ago, and Zhu Gui also instructed Wu Lizheng to store water. After all, the current drought situation is becoming more and more serious.

The only water diversion channel was also fully connected at the end of the month. As the gates of the first channel were opened to release water, the following channels successively diverted water to the last layer.

After a series of twists and turns, the water of the Red River was finally led to the top of the mountain, passed through layers of terraces, and finally flowed back to the Red River.

Looking at the five streams of water on the cliff like waterfalls, Wang Lang couldn't help but sigh: "This is really an amazing method. Miss, this is a great achievement to save the world."

"Hey!~"

Zhu Gui sighed and said with a little regret: "It's a pity that the young lady is a girl. If she were a man in the court, she would definitely have a place."

"You two should stop joking, it's just a trick."

Upon hearing this, the two of them turned around and saluted, saying, "Your humble servant greets you, sir."

"Yeah!~"

Xie Tingwen nodded, looking at the five waterfalls hanging on the mountain, and said with joy on his face: "Now that the dam and the water diversion channel are all completed, the people can be dismissed."

"Yes!~"

Wang Lang responded by stroking his hand, and after a moment of contemplation, he asked in a deep voice, "Sir! I have an unwelcome request."

"Oh! What's the matter? Just tell me."

"I would like to submit this water diversion canal plan to the Ministry of Works. I hope you will approve it," Wang Lang leaned over and said.

He was a clerk, and without Xie Tingwen's handwriting and official seal, his memorial would have been intercepted by the yamen runners before it was delivered to the Ministry of Works.

He told Xie Tingwen about this matter several times, but Xie Tingwen evaded the question every time, and the reason behind it was quite puzzling to him.

Now that the old matter has been brought up again, Xie Tingwen knows that if he doesn't explain it clearly today, Wang Lang will probably not let it go.

After thinking for a moment, Xie Tingwen said in a deep voice: "It is just as the saying goes, 'no power but a lot of money, poor family but a beautiful wife, weak power but early wisdom'. Shu Ting is a girl and I am afraid there will be many inconveniences. If she really wants to become famous, isn't there enough for her to do in Laigu County?"

"This..." Wang Lang was a little stunned for a moment, because what Xie Tingwen said was very right.

If Xie Shuting really wanted to become famous, not to mention the current irrigation method of the water diversion canal, even the commercial development of Laigu County was also her work.

Seeing that Wang Lang still had concerns, Xie Tingwen had to take drastic measures and said loudly: "If Wang really wants to benefit the people, don't mention Shu Ting in this plan. Just submit it under your name. After all, Shu Ting's plan also had flaws. It was only because of you that we found the flaws and filled them that we achieved today's results."

"I don't dare to do this in a humble position."

Wang Lang leaned forward and replied: "These are all the credit of the young lady. I dare not accept this favor. Since the master has made it clear, I will not mention it again."

Xie Tingwen nodded with satisfaction, and then saw Wu Yang walking quickly towards them from the bamboo frame on the cliff. Wang Lang and Zhu Gui subconsciously took half a step back.

"Sir..." Wu Yang shouted while running, like a child who had received candy.

"Wu Lizheng! You should go slower now that you are so old." Xie Tingwen said with a smile.

"Thank you, sir!~"

Wu Yang hurriedly stroked his hands while speaking, and then looked at the two people standing behind Xie Tingwen, and said without any formality: "Thank you, Master Wang, Master Zhu."

"Wu Lizheng, please stand up quickly." The two men took half a step forward and said in a pretentious manner.

Wu Yang calmed down a little, and said in a trembling voice: "I didn't expect that this water could really flow uphill. Rihe Shanghe Township will no longer be barren."

"Then I will be relieved."

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Wang Lang hurriedly looked at Wu Yang and said, "Wu Lizheng! Now that the dam and the water diversion channel are all completed, you can let them go back. Don't take down the bamboo frame on the mountain, just burn it down."

Wu Yang knew what Wang Lang meant. When the bamboo frame was built the day before, many people were injured, and Wang Lang was afraid that someone would get injured.

It's just bamboo, so just burn it. There is no shortage of it in Qili Township. Besides, this thing can be grown in a year, so they naturally have no shortage of it.

"Thank you very much, sir, and thank you, Master Wang." Wu Yang stroked his hands and said.

"Okay! This is it. I should go back to the county office. If you need anything, you can come to the county office to see me."

"Yes, yes, yes!" Wu Yang responded repeatedly.

Just as Xie Tingwen was about to leave, Wu Yang suddenly thought of something and asked hurriedly, "Sir! I can dismiss the people from the three townships and seven villages, but there are still many who are fleeing famine. What should we do?"

"This..." Wang Lang and Zhu Gui looked at each other, neither of them had expected this.

The dam was built so quickly because many refugees joined in. Working hard in exchange for a full meal is a rare fortune for refugees.

Since the beginning of the year, not a drop of rain has fallen on Jinghu South Road, and the wheat planted before the New Year has been completely harvested.

The people who depended on the weather for their livelihood had already sensed the coming drought, and some who had some financial resources had made preparations and began to flee the famine with their families.

Without a pass, they could not enter the city at all, and could only look for villages along the way, and happened to find Shanghe Township.

Seeing that they could get food by building the dam, the fleeing people knelt down and begged Xie Tingwen to take them in. Xie Tingwen had no choice but to finally choose to take them in.

Unexpectedly! Once the door was opened, more than 200 people were gathered in just half a day, of which only more than 60 were strong laborers, and the rest were the elderly, children, women and children.

Xie Tingwen calmed down, pondered for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "At present, except to collect him in Shanghe Township, I am afraid there is no other way. What do you think?"

The three of them thought for a while, and Wu Yang's eyes suddenly lit up, and he hurriedly said: "Sir! Right now the people have to go back to grow sweet potato seedlings, why don't we let these people build the road?"

"Yeah!~"

Zhu Gui's eyes lit up, and he happily agreed, "I think what Wu Lizheng said is very true, what do you think, sir?"

"Then it's up to you."

Xie Tingwen made the decision with a wave of his hand, and then looked at Zhu Gui and said, "You are fully responsible for the road construction. Just ensure the food and safety of the people, and you can take care of the rest."

"I obey your command." Zhu Gui responded hurriedly.

After everything was done, Xie Tingwen did not stay in Shanghe Township, but returned to the county government office under the moonlight. It was not until the situation became clear and he reported it to her overnight that Xie Shuting learned about it.
