"Sowing in about a month!" Zhang Zhao replied.
"Other than that, are there any other questions?”Yuan Huan asked.
Zhang Zhao shook his head lightly. The previous county magistrate had also thought of various ways to release the flood, but the water flow of the Ying and Ru rivers was too strong. No matter how high or thick the dam was, it could not stop the flood from breaking through!”
In ancient times, people had a very simple way to prevent floods. Basically, they only relied on dams to prevent floods. Once the water was too fierce and destroyed the dams, then a year of hard work would be wasted.
"Zi Bu!" Yuan Huan thought for a moment and said. Let's not be too limited in our thinking. In fact, there are only two ways to prevent floods. One is to build dikes to intercept water, and the other is to divert water!
Yuan Huan scratched his head. Flood control and drainage systems were a concept in modern architectural design. It was indeed difficult to understand when it was placed in the Three Kingdoms era more than 1,800 years ago.
"Forgive my stupidity!" Zhang Zhao hastily bowed.”
After a pause, Yuan Huan tried to explain,""It's actually very simple! We need to build some diversion equipment. Once there is a flood, the flood can be gathered in these equipment and flow elsewhere according to our established route. Understand?”
In the concept of flood control proposed by Yuan Hen, it was obvious that it was to use manpower and some corresponding means to resist the punishment of the heavens!
Such a bold idea, how could Zhang Zhao not be shocked?
"In fact, the flood is not terrible. As long as we can correctly understand the flood and prescribe the right medicine, then it is actually just so-so!”
Zhang Zhao bowed in disbelief."Don't worry, my lord. There are clay craftsmen in Xiacai. Tomorrow afternoon, I'll gather them at the county government to await my lord's orders.”
The next day, noon.
Yuan Hen explained the blueprint and asked,""How is it? How long will it take to make such a clay tube?”
Yuan Huan did not hide anything." I'm going to place it underground. Through drainage, the flood will be diverted elsewhere to protect Xiacai from flooding!"”
" This…" Feng Wu was stunned." Young Master, although your idea is very good, I'm afraid it's difficult to realize it. Once the clay pot is buried underground, it will have to withstand the pressure of the traffic all year round. It's brittle and once it's damaged, it's difficult to repair.”
What a joke!
Feng Wu calmed down and asked," May I ask Young Master when you want this batch of goods? I can arrange for the corresponding personnel. Even if I have to stay up all night, I'll try my best to make all of them."”
" The first batch of pioneers will retire in ten days at the latest," Yuan Hen said calmly." I will order them to repair the channels first. You need to provide the first batch of clay tubes within twenty days!"”
