The children really didn't come home all night. As the young master of the princess's family, he also made it clear that he would provide money to sponsor the construction of the reservoir. Naturally, no one would think about it and would not dare to send them home to sleep with their mother.

Magistrate Hu didn't even take a break. With so many people gathered at the county office, who could not take the reservoir seriously?

After lively and even heated discussions, the size and location of the reservoir were basically decided. Then, the fast-footed cadres and enthusiastic people went to survey the terrain overnight and further confirmed the location and scope of the excavation of the reservoir.

It is cheapest to build a reservoir near the river. In the end, we decided on three areas. Most of them were promising areas of wasteland, which were often flooded during floods in previous years.

It doesn't matter whose farmland is implicated. Li Zheng stepped forward and directly compensated with better farmland, rather than suffer some losses for his own family.

Every step of the way is being tracked and recorded by the county government officials. If we don’t show high moral integrity at this time, how long will we wait?

This reservoir is a good thing that benefits the country and the people. The strong laborers from the surrounding villages have collectively mobilized. This is to reduce disasters and fight drought and floods for their own families. Who wouldn't be willing to work hard?

Good guy, there are more people than the people who work hard digging rivers in winter!

The men in the county were not idle either. Taking advantage of the heavy rain, the county magistrate re-excavated the moat. In fact, this river had long existed in name only. Zhuyang County is located inland and usually cannot reach the edge of war, so it became even more serious.

The equipment of city gates, walls and moats was ignored.

If the moat is dug deeper, wouldn't it also be a perfect small reservoir? It's just a little longer and a little weirder in shape.

Frankly speaking, Magistrate Hu had never thought of raising funds from the private sector. However, he couldn't help but started spending money from the young master of the princess's palace, as well as those enthusiastic scholars and "mud-legged men", who led the government officials.

People have also dug into their pockets one after another. Their families are all poor, so who wants to fall behind others?

General Lu Qian's soldiers were also dispatched, money from the Lu family was also donated, and the shopkeepers of various large and small merchants also rushed to the county government with their money. They had already formed a chamber of commerce, hadn't they? They all made a lot of money.

Isn’t it because Zhuyang County’s policies are loose and the people are kind and hard-working? Who wouldn’t want to put more effort into their hometown?

Magistrate Hu was very excited and had nothing to say. He asked the accountant to make sure to mark the accounts. Later he would explain to the people clearly what the money was used for.

Mrs. Hu and Cai Lian were not idle either. In addition to taking care of the children, they organized the women who were busy with their work and organized cooking and boiling water for the men who were working to dig the reservoir.

Hu Buyu was going on a study tour and said that he would go to the capital to meet little Awen as his last stop, so he didn't want to participate in such a big new event.

There were also many people out of "Xingfuyuan". More than half of the guards from the Princess's Mansion and Li Wei's side were also dispatched. If Bai Laoer hadn't been at home and had taken his younger brother Bai Laosan out, he would have definitely rushed to the end first.

Front.

I haven't mentioned Bai Lao San for a long time. Ever since he was taken to the princess's mansion to recover from his injuries, this kid seemed to be suffering from depression. Later, it was Bai Lao Er who took him to the next door. After he recovered from his injuries, he followed Lao Er voluntarily.

The two traveled around and talked about business.

Ah Yuan and Bai Chengguang did not treat him badly. They had blocked the arrow for Bai Chengguang back then! The family did not talk about the two families. From then on, the past had disappeared and the relationship between the two brothers was renewed.

Bai Laoer took the money that was forced on him, but Bai Laoer took it and gave him a stake in his business. As a result, in Qiyang, he became a hard-nosed fool who could take a lot of beatings, and he transformed into the second son of his family.

Brother's bodyguard, not to mention, the embarrassing image that he used to have in the past as someone who was not good at studying and who was a bit worse than a good farmer, has all faded away now, and he looks like a solid and upright sergeant.

Luliu is trying to find a wife for this younger brother. It is said that they are very optimistic about it, and they are just waiting for the third child to nod when he comes back from this trip!

He was expelled from the ancestral hall of the Misty Formation, and the wedding house did not designate the boundary of his hometown for him. Anyway, he still has a spare room in the "Xingfuyuan New Residence", so the smallest one should be given to the third child.

Everyone is very satisfied with this ending. At first, the third child was useless, and the whole family was living with unhappiness. Now that the unhappiness has been removed, the whole family is happy again.

Especially Cai Lian, I don’t know how happy she is. In the beginning, the third child was the best to her. The siblings Awen and I liked to follow Bai Lao San. Later, they became estranged. Cai Lian shed tears many times.

After wandering around, we finally became close relatives again.

The autumn rain started to fall again, and the princess's mansion had not yet eaten its noon meal. A sound of thunder exploded in the hazy sky like a reminder. Fortunately, the temperature was not too low, otherwise, a large part of the disease could be wiped out in just a moment.

labor force.

Magistrate Hu had money in his hands and had already paid for the coir raincoats and bamboo hats sold in the shops in the city. Unfortunately, it was a drop in the bucket and it was impossible to take care of so many people.

Those who had rain gear at home also contributed, but they were already soaked. Every household began to boil ginger soup and bring it to the construction site. They did not dare to delay the excavation of the reservoir. Oh my God, it started raining.

But it's endless. Who knows whether the old river can withstand such a large capacity tonight?

More and more people are rushing to the digging site of the reservoir. Guys from every household have brought out everything to dig the reservoir. The bigger and deeper the reservoir is, the more water it can hold. Children all know this truth.

Just dig quickly! It’s better than having your home really flooded!

The maids in the princess's mansion couldn't stay any longer. The young masters were still being "irrigated" by the rain outside. How could the servants stay in the house?

"Princess, the rain is so heavy, let the slaves go and find the young master!"

"Yes, Princess, the slaves can also dig the soil. The slaves go dig the reservoir and let the young masters go home!"

…

It’s really hard for Princess Furui. The three little masters are so young. From last night to this afternoon, there is no news at all. She can still sit in front of the desk and write and draw!

Song Haohao didn't come back from kindergarten. It's close to home, so there's no need to worry. However, does the princess really not worry about the other three?

"Don't make any noise!" The princess said with a gloomy face, "Wait for me for a while, I will finish thinking about this link, and you will not be idle."

If you have something to do, you can feel at ease. The maids collectively breathed a sigh of relief.

"Sui'er, call a guard. Call our blacksmiths and carpenters. Call a few of the remaining ones. I have arrangements!" The princess's voice was actually a bit dry. She gave a beautiful lecture yesterday.

It's okay to show a little face, but this throat has suffered a lot, and it hurts when I speak.

Everyone understands that the princess has come up with a new "treasure thing" to develop.

However, with such a heavy rainstorm, invention and creation seem to be a bit inconsistent at this juncture!

After Sui'er went outside to explain, she immediately returned to the study to wait for orders. By the time her son came out of the room, half of his trouser legs and skirt were wet and cold.

The princess frowned and muttered something in her mouth: "Use oilcloth? There aren't that many materials - Sui'er, what kind of fabric has the most in our warehouse?"

"There's a lot of silk! Both rooms are full of fine silk. Does the princess want to make clothes?" Sui'er is a housekeeper, so she comes immediately.

"That thing - it's not very useful - if the wind blows, won't it be torn off?" A Yuan frowned even more tightly.

"There is also a room filled with fine cotton cloth. Originally, this cloth was also valuable. It was ordered by the county chamber of commerce, but it was stained by oil and wax on the way there. The little shopkeeper who transported the goods was crying.

Well, the princess was so kind that she sent them all to our warehouse, otherwise, the little shopkeeper would definitely have to go back and be punished." Sui'er had a small mouth and a clear mind, and she told all the things that happened earlier.

Come.

It seems that there really is such a thing. When the Chamber of Commerce was first established, A Yuan happened to meet it. Although the cloth was finely woven, no one was willing to buy it.

That was the first time that the Chamber of Commerce played a role. An outside businessman took the initiative to negotiate supplies for the two counties. A Yuan couldn't bear to let the Chamber of Commerce shrink back in the first step. He also felt sorry for the little shopkeeper who escorted the car with tears in his eyes.

So I paid all the unsalable cloth and shipped it back home.

"It's stained by oily wax - oily wax -" Ah Yuan's brows suddenly spread, and he stood up with excitement: "Come on, let's go to the warehouse and take a look at those fine cotton cloths!"

"But there is water..." Sui'er didn't finish her words of dissuasion. The princess had already left the house like a wind blowing, and big raindrops fell on her...

All the rain gear at home has been donated, and even the most noble princess has no use for it.

Sui'er didn't dare to be tired, so she plunged into the rain. The warehouse was not far away and she could reach it without getting wet.

Behind him, several maids held up clothes and chased the princess. At least they had some cover!

There is really a warehouse full of fine cotton cloth. There are no patterns and colors, and the single blue and gray cloth is the first choice for people to make clothes in summer.

A Yuan hugged the most contaminated piece of cloth and handed the other end to Sui'er: "Open it - stand under the cloth - go to the yard and take a shower -".

The little girl was stunned for a moment and immediately followed the princess's order.

It's just that the maids who came here are a little incomprehensible. Is this to punish Sui'er? It doesn't look like it. The princess looks quite excited. What kind of act is this?

The autumn rain was still raging, and Sui'er felt that her already soaked skirt was even heavier, and the sleeves on her arms were also sticking to her flesh. It was so cold!

But why is my head so dry? What is holding the rainwater that should be flowing along my hair?

The little girl opened her eyes wide and looked up to see. The blue muslin cloth blocked the sky even darker. The area above her head was clearly a large piece of oil... (To be continued. If you like this work, welcome
