Chapter 627 Li Er was laughed at when he failed to pray for rain
Ji Ruxue was standing on the edge.
She said: "At this time, Your Majesty asked for rain. Mr. Zili thinks, can Your Majesty ask for rain?"
she asked curiously.
Li Min was a little helpless. This woman had been with him for so long. Didn't she know that there were some things that she couldn't ask for?
However, he still told her.
"It's impossible, there won't be any rain in the next month! Even if you beg, it's useless! He's just messing around!"
"Ah? What if there is no rain? Our crops are in a critical period now and we need water very much! If there is no rain, the consequences will be unimaginable!"
Ji Ruxue was shocked.
She first thought of the group's crops, cotton and hybrid rice. Once these things ran out of water, it would be bad.
Everything you did before was in vain.
Except for the crops in the greenhouses within the group, everything outside will suffer!
At this time, a person walked in from the door.
It was Jia Junjie, and he saluted Li Min.
Li Min knew something big had happened as soon as he looked at him!
"Mr. Zili, our farmland outside the city has begun to lack water recently, and the water level of the nearby river has dropped a lot."
Because not only do you have farmland, you also have the farmland of other people.
Everyone wants water for irrigation.
There has been no rain for too long, causing water levels in some places to drop a lot.
In addition, the people used manpower to bring water to nearby farmland.
As a result, his farmland began to lack water.
But it has not reached the level of drought. There was still a little water before, but the lack of water will not last long.
"Are even the rivers going to run out of water?"
Li Min asked, this was something he didn't expect. He didn't expect the people to be so crazy.
If this continues, the water will definitely run out.
Perhaps this will be a drought that has never happened in a century.
"Yes, if there is no water for ten days, our farmland will probably be ruined. Now people are catching fish from the river and drying the fish, saying that it can cope with possible famine."
Is this all there? Things are more difficult than you thought.
Just now Li Min was saying that there would be no rain for a month. If this is the case, then things will be serious.
At the same time, Yan Lide also came.
Maybe it’s also about the rain.
He came to Li Min and said, "Mr. Zili, the water level in the reservoir has begun to drop. We didn't even close the flow, but the water level keeps dropping."
Even the water level in the reservoir is dropping.
The dam has not been built yet.
The water level dropped.
This is not a good thing.
But for them, it can speed up the progress.
At least you don't have to worry about traffic interception.
"Tell me to go down and speed up the progress! Next, I will get the rain!"
Li Min's words made everyone puzzled.
Can rain be obtained?
This is not scientific.
But looking at Li Min's expression, he didn't seem to be joking.
"Mr. Zili, I don't want to question you, but is this rain really possible?"
Jia Junjie asked.
This is very important to him.
"If it's really possible, then I won't think of anything else to do. Then the water in the river can still be used for how many days!"
He said again.
Yan Lide said: "I also think it won't rain. That would be an extremely beneficial thing for the construction of our reservoir. It can reduce casualties and speed up the progress. But for the people, this is not a good thing."
."
Everything has two sides. If there is good, there must be something to say. This is understandable.
"Mr. Zili, I heard from people in the palace that some people want to destroy our reservoir. If your Majesty cannot ask for rain this time, he may blame you!"
Ji Ruxue said worriedly.
"You don't have to worry about this. Just do what you should do. I am responsible for what I say!"
Seeing Li Min so determined.
No one said anything more.
At this time, there was a commotion in Chang'an City.
An army walked out of the Zhuque Gate.
Li Min saw it, and he quickly took out his binoculars and looked there.
At this time, three cars drove out.
The first car was Li Shimin's car.
Now when he goes out, he always uses a car instead of a sedan.
After all, the car is more attractive.
What's more, he also wears glasses.
With him, there were several princes and concubines.
They were also sitting in the car.
Three cars can hold fifteen or even twenty people.
At the same time, there was an army in front of the car clearing the way.
They left the Zhuque Gate and headed toward the east of the city.
All of this was under Li Min's watch, and it could be said that Li Shimin's every move was under his control.
He couldn't see any trace of Li Shimin until Li Shimin left the city.
But to him, it really meant nothing.
Because every once in a while, someone comes to report to him.
Report on Li Shimin’s prayer for rain.
It is said that nearly 100,000 people gathered at the scene, all with the same purpose and the same hope, that is, they hope to see it rain.
However, in fact, it was contrary to expectations. Just three days after Li Er prayed for rain, there was no movement at all in the sky.
The people began to feel a little desperate.
People throughout Chang'an City began to panic.
As long as it doesn't rain for a day, the people will be even more fearful.
If this continues, the consequences will be disastrous.
Li Shimin was very angry about the fact that it was not raining.
He was so pious, but he couldn't pray for rain.
This seems unreasonable.
But nature doesn't care whether you are an emperor or not.
How important it is, in front of it, all human beings are like ants.
Regarding his request for rain, Li Min directly concluded that it was impossible.
He also laughed at Li Shimin's ignorance. At this time, we should use scientific methods to solve the problem instead of praying to God.
To make it rain, you still have to do it yourself.
On this day, Li Min called to Zhushan.
During this period of time, he has been studying artificial rainfall and drawing drawings.
Instruct Zhu Shan to deal with it.
At this time, he was understanding the situation.
The so-called artificial rainfall is based on the physical characteristics of different clouds, choosing the right time, and using airplanes and rockets to sow dry ice, silver iodide, salt powder and other catalysts into the clouds to make the clouds precipitate or increase the amount of precipitation.
Silver iodide is the best solution, which requires rockets to launch it into the sky.
Therefore, he planned to add gunpowder and use existing technology to send silver iodide to the sky.
At the same time, it requires clouds and fog to ensure rainfall with 100% certainty.
He checked the weather and found that the weather in seven days would be suitable.
Therefore, he prepared to carry out artificial rainfall in seven days.
And he will definitely succeed!
While he was discussing with Zhu Shan, Li Ke and Li Yun appeared.
