Transmigrated into a corrupt female county magistrate, defied fate and changed her life in a deserte

Song Jinshu spent half an hour explaining to Xiang An the wonders of the canal. In fact, she was referring to the construction principle of Dujiangyan, but it was just a scaled-down version.

Although it is a smaller version, it still has the same 40% water and 20% sand ratio.

Xiang An was stunned by what he heard and couldn't come back to his senses for a long time. After hearing all the principles and functions, he looked at the water channel again with a burning gaze.

"How could there be such a wonderful way to control a river in this world! Lord Song, you... you deserve to be enshrined in the Imperial Ancestral Temple!"

If this water channel is used in various places, the flood problem will be solved!

The more he thought about Xiang An, the more passionate he became, and his eyes lit up frighteningly.

After calming down, he turned his gaze to Song Jinshu again. She obviously had such talent, and she was really wronged in Jingyang County.

Xiang An was very puzzled as to why such a talented person would come to the remote Jingyang County.

If she could go out and stand tall, the people's lives would be so much better in the future!

It’s a pity that he had checked Song Jinshu’s information, but he came from a poor family and had no connections, so it’s no wonder that he was assigned here.

"Sir Song, you have such talent that you shouldn't be buried here. If there's an opportunity in the future, I will definitely help you soar to the sky."

Song Jinshu: What about Mo Nai?

She looked at Xiang An in front of her with confusion, his face flushed with excitement. Is this kid crazy?

"There's no need to soar to the sky! I'm just living a life of idleness in Jingyang County... Oh... No! Building the countryside is great!"

Her ambitions are really not big, she just wants to live a happy retirement life as soon as possible.

Although she cannot travel freely here, she is the boss of Jingyang County and has power and leisure, and will soon have money.

Why is she so depressed and running around so busy?

In addition, she is not smart enough and does not have the scheming, and the official career is difficult. She really cannot beat those old foxes.

Xiang An frowned. Was she giving up on herself because her future was hopeless?

"You don't have to worry about mobilizing your connections. Although my family isn't a wealthy or powerful one, we still have some influence in the officialdom."

"Don't do it! I really don't have the ambition to climb the social ladder! Sir Xiang has great ambitions, and I admire him, but you should keep your connections and resources to yourself!"

She sighed helplessly, and at the same time she felt that Xiang An was really crazy.

He wants to build bridges for her for no reason. They don't seem to know each other very well, right?

Seeing how Song Jinshu had abandoned himself and become decadent, Xiang An sighed silently, feeling filled with emotion.

Talented people, because they have no money or power, can only waste their lives in remote areas.

On the contrary, the children of high-ranking officials, who have a good future thanks to their families, are only concerned with fighting for power and profit, and do not care about the people at all.

Ultimately, it’s all caused by lack of connections.

"Huh? What is that?"

Xiang An suddenly pointed at a field not far away, and ran forward uncontrollably. He tripped over a stone and almost fell.

This shows that he is really anxious!

Xiang An opened his eyes wide in shock as he watched the miraculous scene in front of him. The old farmer drove the cattle in circles and pumped up the water!

And the water flows along the trough all the way to the fields...

What exactly is this?

Xiang An swallowed, turned to look at Song Jinshu, and asked in a trembling voice, "What...what is this?"

He was sure that the thing in front of him must have been made by Song Jinshu.

Song Jinshu looked at Xiang An, startled and confused, as if he had never seen the world before. She explained helplessly, "This is called a waterwheel, used to irrigate farmland."

Xiang An's head was buzzing. The water channel was already enough to shock him, and now the waterwheel dealt him another heavy blow.

"Master Song, how many surprises do you have that I don't know about?"

Song Jinshu: ??? Bro, you're wearing it too?

Song Jinshu looked at Xiang An in confusion, not knowing how to answer for a moment.

"Master Song! You deserve to be enshrined in the Imperial Ancestral Temple!"

"Forget the temple! Isn't this a waterwheel? If you like it, you can pre-order it. If you wholesale a lot, I can give your county a discount!"

"There are not many, first come first served!"

Xiang An nodded immediately: "I want to order! Order 100 water trucks first!"

"Oh! Be straightforward, sir! Come on... let's go back and sit down for a cup of tea and talk about this slowly!"

Song Jinshu immediately smiled like a flower. She didn't expect that such a big deal would come so soon.

Xiang An looked at the waterwheel reluctantly. Before leaving, he stepped forward and begged the villagers to let him try driving the cattle himself.

After trying it, he became more and more excited.

The two days in Jingyang County brought him so many surprises!

He immediately regretted not coming here earlier.

Song Jinshu actually kept such a good thing hidden to himself. If it were someone else, he would have handed it over to ask for credit and reward.

Xiang An has decided to reveal this matter to his father in Kyoto and have his father whisper it in the emperor's ear.

Talents like Song Jinshu should not be buried!

……

After returning to the county government office, Song Jinshu lay weakly on the bed with his eyes closed to rest.

She really didn't expect that Xiang An would be so noisy one day.

On the way back, he kept chattering away, and her ears were almost callused from listening to him.

If it wasn't against etiquette, she suspected he would really follow her back to the backyard of the county government office.

"Eldest sister! Master Shen is looking for you!" Song Yunrong knocked on the door from outside.

Song Jinshu was in a daze for a moment: "Okay! I'll go out now!"

In the front hall, Shen Fenghua was wearing simple clothes and there was a bundle on the table next to her.

This was what Song Jinshu saw. She raised her eyebrows and asked hesitantly, "Master Shen, are you going on a long journey?"

Shen Fenghua paused and nodded slightly: "Yes! I'm here to say goodbye."

Farewell?

Song Jinshu frowned. Didn’t he come to ask her for leave?

Song Jinshu hesitated for a moment, then asked, "Will you...come back in the future?"

"I...sorry, I have a family emergency and I'm afraid it will take a long time. If the county office is busy, I would like to resign from my position as chief clerk."

……

The air seemed to pause for a few seconds, Song Jinshu fell silent, and Shen Fenghua also fell silent.

The two looked at each other for a long time without saying anything. After a while, Song Jinshu sighed and said, "Is it urgent? How long will it take to handle it?"

Shen Fenghua was silent for a moment, and his head dropped unconsciously.

Not getting an answer, Song Jinshu laughed dryly.

"It's okay! If you have urgent matters, you can go home and handle them first. As for the position of chief clerk... I can reserve it for you for six months. If you don't come back within six months, I'll recruit someone new!"

Shen Fenghua looked at Song Jinshu deeply, pursed his lips and didn't know what to say. He clearly had a lot to say before coming here.

But the moment I saw her, all the words of farewell seemed to take root in my throat and I couldn't say them.

"…good!"

"Then... take care on your journey! Stay safe!"

Shen Fenghua tightened his hanging hands. He didn't dare to meet Song Jinshu's eyes, fearing that he would be reluctant to leave.

"You too! Take care!"
