Chapter 47 Irrigation
Early the next morning, Yang Lin found Lu Zhi, and after asking, he found out that Yuan Da had been expelled from Lu Mansion. Originally, he wanted to take care of Lu Taigong's face, but after knowing that he no longer had any scruples, he thought carefully in his mind.
Finally, with a little excitement, he secretly thought that he could finally take action against Liu Bang, and the opportunity had finally arrived.
"Li Ba, you don't need to go there for irrigation today. I just give you a task. No matter what the situation, you must keep Yuan Da in custody." Yang Lin had a firm look in his eyes, patted the desk, and ordered.
"No!" Li Ba stood up and held his hands in his hands, saying with a serious face, "Ba has an order. Please rest assured, Chief of the pavilion, I will live up to my order."
Yang Lin nodded, and then told Xia Houying on the side, "Please take the order from the thief Xia Houying."
"Here!" Xia Houying came out of the queue and waited for the appointment.
"I order you to lead people to inspect the farmlands in various areas. Anyone who causes trouble wantonly and refuses to obey the irrigation order will be stopped at the pavilion." Yang Lin continued to order.
"No! Xia Houying accepted the order and will maintain the public order of the irrigation in this pavilion." Xia Houying immediately said solemnly, word by word.
Then, Yang Lin looked at Wang Shan. The latter knew that it was his turn, so he stepped forward and waited. Then, Yang Lin said, "Ting father Wang Shan will follow me to arrange irrigation in various areas and check the smoothness of the channels."
"Shan will assist the pavilion chief with irrigation matters." Wang Shan nodded and accepted the order.
Yang Lin originally did not want to arrange irrigation in such a serious manner, but it was different today, because he had decided to give Liu Bang a fatal blow and did not allow any mistakes to occur at this time. Therefore, he gave orders to all the brothers one by one.
Afterwards, Xia Houying and the others left to make arrangements. Yang Lin left Zhao Meng alone, then called the latter in front of him and whispered in a low voice, "Go and invite Mr. Xiao."
"Please Sir Xiao? Pavilion chief, what should I say?" Zhao Meng asked somewhat confused. Irrigation matters are usually handled in the pavilion, so why bother with the county magistrate.
Hearing this question, Yang Lin smiled inadvertently, and then whispered to him in a private voice.
After hearing this, Zhao Meng happily bowed his hands and said with a smile, "Meng understands, I will do it right away. Please relax, Chief of the pavilion, Meng will definitely invite Mr. Xiao."
After the brothers left, Yang Lin filtered everything through his mind again before leaving the pavilion.
"Today's irrigation is different from the past." Yang Lin said solemnly to the village chiefs gathered on the path next to the field, "In the past, each village drew lots to determine the order of irrigation. This method was inappropriate and greatly reduced the efficiency of irrigation." He said.
He swept through the crowd and said again.
After hearing this, the expressions of the pavilion chiefs varied. Some were confused, some were worried, and some were laughing. One of them asked unclearly, "May I ask the pavilion chief, how will we irrigate today?"
Yang Lin then signaled Wang Shan to spread out the map of Lishui Pavilion. He immediately squatted down. Seeing this, the village leaders did not dare to stand, so they also squatted down. Yang Lin pointed at the map and said, "This is for farmland and irrigation."
Canals should be irrigated in the order they flow from south to north according to the water source. This method can save at least one day, do you have any opinions?"
"I don't accept it, I don't accept it." Chen Lichang, who is located in Sanshanli in the north, shouted loudly, "You are clearly plotting for Anyangli. Why should I be the last one in Sanshanli?"
Yang Lin frowned, and Wang Shan beside him immediately sneered lightly, "Chen Lichang, if I remember correctly, Zhang Tingchang and everyone in the past promised that I would be the first to use the water source in Anyang this year.
However, according to the pavilion chief’s method, I, Anyangli, am only ranked second. Why don’t you accept it?”
Chen Lichang showed a stern look on his face and hummed, "That happened in the past. Now that Yang Lin is the chief of the pavilion and the number one hero in Fengyi, you should know how to be humble. But how can you convince the public with your arrangement now?"
"As he said this, he waved his hand to indicate that the other village chiefs agreed with him.
However, all the commanders were hesitant and looked at Yang Lin with some doubts.
Immediately afterwards, Yang Lin did not say anything, but Xia Houying immediately took two people, and then one person on each side, took Chen Lichang away with his arms.
"Little boy surnamed Yang, what do you mean, what do you want to do..." Chen Lichang waved his arms, but he was trapped tightly by the two people and could not break free no matter what.
"Take it away." Xia Houying immediately ordered.
By this time, the other village chiefs did not dare to raise any objections, so they arranged irrigation according to Yang Lin's method.
Not long after waiting, water slowly flowed from the water source along the channel from south to north. At first, it was just a small trickle. Yang Lin then ordered the farmers in Fengheli Village at the first position to clear the channel.
It is blocked with silt and weeds at the junction with the farmland in Anyangli Village.
As a result, the gurgling water could not flow downstream of the channel, so it accumulated in the channel in Fengheli Village. As time went by, a lot of water accumulated, and Yang Lin once again ordered the farmers in Fengheli Village to turn on the irrigation of their farmland.
mouth, so that water continuously flows into various farmlands.
Different from the busy farmers in Fengheli Village, the farmers in other villages are looking forward to it and waiting anxiously. In the last few li of the channel, there is a total of 1,000 li long, and there is no hope of reaching them today, so they make their own
The farmers left first, so there is no need to pay too much attention to irrigation today.
After about two hours, the farmland in Fengheli Village was finally irrigated. Wang Shan immediately asked people to remove the silt and weeds that blocked the flow of water to the downstream channel. Because of the previous obstruction, there was more water in the channel, so after removing the silt, Anyang
The channels in the village were quickly occupied by water flow.
At this time, Yang Lin also ordered people to use the same method to block the channel between Anyangli and the next Lioli. Therefore, the farmers in Anyangli also opened the water inlet and irrigated separately.
However, each household only irrigated for a short time, and the farmland was just moist, but the water in the channel gradually decreased, and finally there was no water flowing.
"What's going on?" Yang Lin came to Wang Shan and asked with a heavy face, "Have you checked the channels? Are there any leaks?"
Wang Shan looked anxious and immediately replied, "I have reported to the pavilion chief that everything has been checked and there are no leaks."
Hearing this, Yang Lin was confused, frowned, and said: "This is strange. If there is no plugging, why is there no water flowing in at this time? Send someone to investigate upstream immediately."
"No!" Wang Shan knew that this matter was important, so he immediately responded, and then personally led people to explore the upstream water source.
"Chief of the pavilion, something has happened?" After Wang Shan left, the other village chiefs came forward and asked anxiously. If there is really a problem with the water source, the irrigation in the entire pavilion may be affected.
This year's planting will be postponed.
Yang Lin did not respond to everyone's questions. He also appeared upset, pacing back and forth on the path uneasily.
After a while, Wang Shan hurried back, still with footprints in the mud on his body. He shouted, "Pavilion chief, it's not good. The people in Bazi Pavilion blocked the water."
