After hearing what he said, everyone's hearts went straight into their stomachs, and they were talking and excited!

Pei Beiyin did not give Yang Wei a good look, and even gave him a cold look. She especially remembered that when she first returned to Beijing, this bastard actually asked Zhou Jian to drug him. She only found out later, what a shameless Taoist priest!

"Okay, without further ado, it's already mid-August. Whether we can catch up with the autumn harvest depends on this time!"

"Come here!" Zhou Jian shouted. Although he was thirsty and hot, he was in a hearty mood.

"I'm here!" Everyone clasped their fists and shouted, their momentum was like a rainbow, sweeping away the depression.

"Dong Bishu, go back to Liangzhou City immediately, organize people, cut down the trees, and transport them directly here!"

"Qiao Liang, go prepare pen and paper. I want to draw the device. You will be responsible for supervising the work!"

"Yang Wei, I don't care what method you use, within three days, I will have a southwest wind blowing!"

"And over the farmland, let the people prepare for irrigation at any time!" Zhou Jian spoke one after another, high-spirited.

"Yes!!" Everyone shouted, and then quickly split up.

Pei Beiyin's long eyelashes fluttered and he said hurriedly: "Your Majesty, do you mean to set up camp here?"

"Of course!" Zhou Jian nodded heavily: "Time waits for no one."

Hearing this, everyone showed a look of extreme admiration. The Ninth Five-year-old came to such a poor place and even worked tirelessly on the front line. Why don't they go all out?

"Your Majesty, I admire you!!"

"Then I will go back to the southwest farmland immediately and make preparations." Pei Beiyin looked very anxious and did not want to delay.

"Wait a minute, don't worry, just stay with me." Zhou Jian grabbed her.

Pei Beiyin frowned slightly, and after thinking about it, it was indeed the same: "This... okay."

In fact, she didn't want to leave or be separated. She couldn't even explain this feeling clearly, as if Zhou Jian was the only one in the world who could give her a sense of belonging.

Zhou Jian was too busy when he was in the palace, but here, she was the only one.

"..."

About an hour later, Zhou Jian drew the blueprint of the windmill device. This was not difficult to manufacture. For ancient times when the Han people were at the peak of their craftsmanship, it was simply a piece of cake.

At Zhou Jian's suggestion, Qiao Liang, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, made some basic improvements, reducing the weight and craftsmanship, making the windmill device more feasible.

The next step is to inspect the diversion gully, survey the actual height, and determine the approximate number of windmill devices needed.

This process, wading through mountains and rivers, and braving the heat, was hard work. Zhou Jian didn't want Pei Beiyin to follow, but she did, and she had countless blisters on her heels.

For two full days, Zhou Jian completed the project, determined the specific data, and then returned to the Changhe River Basin, just in time to catch up with Dong Bishu's return.

He brought more than 500 capable craftsmen, which can be said to have emptied Liangzhou's family fortune. Under Zhou Jian's order, everyone began to cut down giant trees and make windmills to divert water. Even the Forbidden Army joined in!

However, there are still not enough manpower, and working in the scorching heat makes people prone to heat stroke, so they can only work at dusk and early morning.

But the commotion here was too big. The news that the emperor wanted to divert water spread throughout the poor Liangzhou. Because of Zhou Jian's prestige, a large number of people joined in, sending food and drinks, helping to carry things, and instantly raising money.

Hurry!

All around the Yangtze River Basin, the military and civilians can be said to be one family, extremely united!

Late that night, with torches all around and the temperature dropping slightly, Pei Beiyin's distressed voice came from the temporary tent: "Take it easy, take it easy!"
Chapter completed!
