Traveling through the Qin Dynasty, I seized the throne of Ying Zheng's father

[Award, Liu Ji, Xiao He, Cao Shen, for working for the benefit of the people and serving the Qin Dynasty for a thousand years. I already know about your merits. Please work hard. I am waiting for you in Xianyang.]

Fusu came to review it directly.

Other memorials can be reviewed casually, but the one from Lao Liu and his three companions must be reviewed carefully and praised.

It's not that the three of them have to do anything, it's just because it feels more fun to do so...

Hehehe, who could have thought that one day this character in history books would become his subordinate?

And the status gap is so huge, shouldn't we enjoy ourselves?

Fusu smiled slightly, then put the memorial aside and continued to review it.

The government affairs of the Qin Dynasty were neither too much nor too little. Fortunately, Fusu came from the future, so he was very good at reviewing them.

.....

Let me talk about two things...

the other side....

Yu County.

Ying Zheng was sitting on an ox cart, watching the people working in the fields....

He has been in a good mood since he came out this time. Fusu's performance has far exceeded expectations. He is completely like a different person!

The Qin Dynasty had many problems that even he himself could not solve, but under Fusu's hands, it was as if the threads were cleverly connected, linking the various messy affairs one by one into an exquisite picture scroll...

Even Ying Zheng couldn't help but admire this trick...

"Public morality, what do you think is in my son's head?"

"This waterwheel is really ingenious!"

Ying Zheng looked at the huge waterwheel at the end of the field, which was constantly pouring buckets of water into the farmland under the action of the water flow...

It is not driven by human power, but by the power of water flow.

As long as the river flows continuously, irrigation will never stop. Water wheels pump water into canals, and the canals flow through the fields to irrigate acres of farmland. At the end of the canals are large reservoirs. With these reservoirs, there will be water available even if the river dries up in the future.

The reservoir is dug out based on several farmlands. Compared with rivers, its convenience is great.

Imagine that if you want to irrigate fields that are far away from water sources, people may need to carry wooden buckets and walk for most of the day to get to the water source, and then transport the water to the fields. This round trip takes at least ten minutes, and it can only be transported a few times a day.

This has led to a situation where most of the fields rely on the weather for their crops.

If there is more rain, we won’t have to travel so far to irrigate, and the crops in the fields will survive and produce a good harvest;

Once there is little rain, you either have to choose to use ox carts to transport water, or watch the crops die, which means a year's work is in vain. No matter which option you choose, it is unbearable for the people!

It is usually difficult to borrow an oxcart. If you want to use one, you have to pay for it, which invisibly increases the cost of farming. Moreover, droughts may not happen once or twice. If you borrow it a few more times... you will lose all your family assets...

But now with this canal, the situation is very different.

Basically, there are canals near every farmland, and irrigation is only a few steps away. In this way, when the water level drops, the waterwheel cannot operate well and the water flow dries up. People can get water from the canal for emergency use... And the water in the canal is stored in the waterwheel, so there is no need for people to carry it...

Ying Zheng looked at the overall structure of the waterwheel in front of him and was deeply moved and amazed!

My son, I really can’t see through you any more…
