Chapter 898 Guanzhong problem, flood

After receiving Wei Jian's confirmation again, Liu Zhang no longer had any doubts in his mind.

The Jia Kui in front of him was the Jia Kui that Liu Zhang wanted to recruit!

However, Liu Zhang had different ideas about Jia Kui's usage.

Liu Zhang believed deeply in what Wei Qiang said about the art of war.

In the historical Battle of Shiting, Cao Xiu fell into a trap and almost wiped out his entire army, causing the situation in Huainan to deteriorate.

But in the end, it was Jia Kui who stood up, turned the tide, and defeated Soochow.

This shows that Jia Kui is not only a counselor, but also has the ability to lead troops.

There is no concrete conclusion as to whether he can become a handsome man like Zhou Yu and Lu Xun.

However, it can not only govern a state and make the people of a state live and work in peace and contentment, but it can also lead a large army to fight and repel powerful enemies.

Jia Kuizhen can be regarded as a rare all-round talent in the late Han Dynasty.

Liu Zhang did not have an accurate estimate of Jia Kui's ability to command troops. He did not know whether Jia Kui, who defeated Soochow in history, had experienced different growth.

At present, the Qin State may not have a war in the next few years. It would be a waste if Jia Kui is trained as a general to command the army.

But there is absolutely no need to question Jia Kui's ability to govern states and counties.

If he is placed in a government position at this time, he will surely achieve good results in the next few years.

Thinking of this, Liu Zhang also made a decision.

"Liang Dao, I have a very important matter right now. Because it is too difficult, there is no suitable candidate yet."

"Do you dare to take on this important task?"

Jia Kui thought for a moment and asked Liu Zhang.

"May I ask Mr. Qin, what is the specific matter?"

How could something that even Liu Zhang found difficult be so easy?

Jia Kui didn't agree immediately. He also needed to know what the specific responsibilities were and see if he could do it.

If he couldn't do it, Jia Kui would never agree to an impossible task just because he wanted to be valued by Liu Zhang.

Liu Zhang nodded slightly, very satisfied with Jia Kui's question.

Although he is young, his character is extremely calm. He is worthy of being a famous wise minister in history!

"Guanzhong is a fertile land with thousands of miles of fertile land. The Han Dynasty also arose in Guanzhong!"

"But after hundreds of years of destruction, Guanzhong has become increasingly dilapidated, and now it is at its most desolate!"

"Guanzhong is extremely important to our Qin State. If we want to suppress the rebellion and revive the Han Dynasty, we must let Guanzhong rise again."

"The Qiang and Hu surrendered, the Xiongnu and Xianbei suffered heavy losses one after another. All foreign aggression in Guanzhong has been subdued. Now is a great time to revive and return to its peak!"

Everyone was stunned for a moment, not understanding what Liu Zhang meant by saying these words.

Jing Zhaoyin is Wei Jian, and the governor of Yongzhou is Liu Ye. Shouldn't it be the responsibility of these two to revive Guanzhong?

Now that I tell Jia Kui these things, do I have to entrust all the important matters in Guanzhong to a young boy?

Jia Kui, who had always been calm and composed, now became nervous.

The burden of reviving Guanzhong is too heavy, and for him now, it is indeed beyond his capabilities.

"Mr. Qin, I'm..."

Liu Zhang raised his hand and did not let Jia Kui continue.

"Liang Dao, please listen to me first."

Jia Kui hurriedly apologized with his hands in his hands, appearing to be listening attentively.

"Guanzhong is thousands of miles of fertile land and is known as the Land of Longxing, mainly because of the several major rivers in Guanzhong!"

"The main ones are the Weishui River, Jingshui River and the Yellow River."

"With the nourishment of these water systems, this land can support a large population and produce a large amount of food!"

"But after years of neglect and abandonment, today's Wei River, Jing River and Yellow River have not only failed to nourish Guanzhong, but have become a scourge for Guanzhong!"

"If we want to revitalize Guanzhong, we must first control the rivers in Guanzhong."

The water system in Guanzhong is extremely complex, and floods have occurred in the past ten years.

If this problem is not solved, then the rejuvenation of Guanzhong will still be empty talk.

This time Liu Zhang had been discussing with Jia Xu, Xun Yu, Liu Ye and others for a long time, but he suffered from the lack of talents to control the flood.

In history, Jia Kui built water conservancy projects in Yuzhou and built more than 200 miles of canals!

Because of this achievement, he was praised as "Jiahou Qu" by the people and achieved very dazzling results.

Now Jia Kui's sudden appearance gave Liu Zhang hope of completely solving the flood problem in Guanzhong.

"Mr. Qin, let me tell you the truth. I am not sure about this matter."

"The water system in Guanzhong is extremely complicated, and the rivers are interconnected. If one move is made, the whole body will be affected!"

"If you are not careful, it is very likely to cause a catastrophe!"

Even though Liu Zhang's eyes were extremely urgent, Jia Kui still maintained his last sanity.

The floods in Guanzhong are really not so easy to control.

Since the establishment of the Eastern Han Dynasty, it is not that the rulers have no intention of caring about the country, but that the country has become increasingly unstable.

Floods gradually turned from occasional to normal, leaving the court helpless.

The knowledge Jia Kui learned did include aspects of controlling floods, but he was still not sure that he could solve the problem in Guanzhong.

Let’s not talk about the difficulties involved. Just the people who were recruited and the money and food spent are enough to make people amazed!

Liu Zhang sighed softly, and then showed a look of helplessness.

"Liang Dao, why don't you know that the water system in Guanzhong is complicated? Otherwise, why are there no suitable candidates yet?"

"If the floods in Guanzhong are not eliminated, floods and droughts will continue to plague Guanzhong."

"It is a complete idiot's dream to restore Guanzhong to its heyday!"

Floods must be followed by severe droughts, and this remains the eternal norm.

Failure to effectively handle floods will lead to water shortages after the floods recede.

If things go on like this, not to mention restoring the people's livelihood in Guanzhong, it may be enough to bring down the entire Qin State!

At present, the situation in various places is gradually becoming more obvious, and it will be very difficult to buy food on a large scale in the future.

If Liu Zhang did not find a way to increase grain output on his own, it would directly restrict the development of Qin's population.

Jia Kui frowned and clenched his fists, still thinking about the feasibility of this matter.

Liu Zhang was able to entrust such an important task to a young man who was not even 30 years old. This trust made Jia Kui burst into tears of gratitude.

However, Jia Kui also had to ensure that he lived up to Liu Zhang's expectations, otherwise he might as well let Liu Zhang choose another talented person.

Liu Zhang was not in a hurry to get the answer, and stood aside silently watching Jia Kui.

The eyes of everyone in the entire room were all focused on Jia Kui.

Among them, Wei Ji is the most hopeful. As a friend for many years, he hopes that Jia Kui can take this opportunity to fully display his talents.

After a long time, Jia Kui finally raised his head, the confusion in his eyes gone.

"Qin Gong, it is almost impossible to solve the flood problem in Guanzhong."

Hearing Jia Kui's words, everyone around him showed strange expressions.

Wei Qian also wilted like an eggplant beaten by frost.

"You do not dare?"

Liu Zhang was also greatly disappointed. This was very different from the Jia Kui he remembered.

At this moment, Jia Kui chuckled several times, with a look of confidence on his face.

"Haha, Duke Qin dares to do it, why don't I dare?"

"But I would like to ask Mr. Qin whether he can withstand the astronomical amount of money consumed?"
