Lin Wanwan sat there, her expression changing all of a sudden.
Perhaps, from the moment she was able to travel through time and space, history had already begun to change. Normally, just fanning her little butterfly wings in the past would have a huge impact on future generations. But in fact,
Modern society has not changed in any way because of her many actions in the Tang Dynasty.
Could it be that the two space-times are parallel? There is no interference?
She saved Xiao Chong's life, which directly led to the construction of its mountain weir being advanced by more than two hundred years. Of course, this must be a great thing for the people of Luan County. However, Lin Wanwan could not accept what happened in history for the time being.
Such a big change.
She decided to go and have a look at the site. Maybe it just had the same name and wasn't the same mountain weir two hundred years later?
Thinking of this, Lin Wanwan called Kunlun to go to Tashan Mountain where the Taishan Weir is located to take a look.
The carriage rolled gurglingly for more than a quarter of an hour before arriving at the bank of Lanjiang River and the exit of Zhangxi River.
There are crowds of people here, and mountains of rocks and huge trees are piled up. Although it is cold winter, everyone is steaming up because of the heavy workload.
The appearance of Lin Wanwan's carriage here seemed very abrupt, because the people who would come here were either officers and soldiers on horseback or civilians on foot. Carriage, a means of transportation reserved for ladies and ladies, would hardly appear here.
Lin Wanwan opened the curtain of the carriage and looked at the construction site outside, comparing it with her impression of Tashan Weir in later generations. Everything here has just begun, and the shape can't be seen yet, so it's not easy to distinguish.
As she was watching, Xiao Chong's favorite bay-red horse suddenly flashed across her eyes.
Xiao Chong is here? Unexpectedly, he was also present at the scene. Lin Wanwan immediately jumped off the carriage and walked in the direction of the bay-red horse.
As he was approaching, he was stopped by a follower with a knife: "Who is he? What are you doing here?"
If he hadn't seen Lin Wanwan wearing a curtain hat and silk satin, he would have taken action long ago.
"My wife, Hou Taolin, would like to see Xiao Mingfu. I wonder if he is here?"
The movement here attracted the attention of the people in front. Xiao Chong's personal servant Shuqi was the first to notice Lin Wanwan and immediately informed Xiao Chong who was discussing with the craftsmen and staff.
Xiao Chong, who was wearing a jade crown and a Hu suit with lapels, looked back at Lin Wanwan. Although he was covered in dust, he was still chic, elegant, handsome and charming, and it was hard to ignore.
He made a pause gesture to the people around him and went straight to Lin Wanwan: "My cousin came here in a hurry, why?"
Lin Wanwan looked up at Xiao Chong and said, "Cousin, I heard that you wanted to build a weir on the mountain, so I came to take a look."
Xiao Chong asked calmly: "Why, my cousin is also interested in this matter?"
Lin Wanwan turned her head and looked at the calm river in front of her, but her heart was filled with turmoil. This site selection and this posture were clearly the same mountain weir in history. Xiao Chong really wanted to do this.
She looked at the river and murmured: "Why did my cousin choose to build the river weir here? This is a big project, and it will cost people and money. My cousin has only been in Luang County for less than a year and started building a large amount of construction. Is this good?"
Xiao Chong's confident eyes lit up, he stared at the river, and said calmly: "There are countless fertile fields in Luang County, but they are suffering from the intrusion of sea water and cannot be used for planting. Now that I have come here, I naturally have to make some changes. As for the waste of people and money, but
I can’t say that the method of drying salt on the tidal flat that you provided has solved many future problems for me. I would like to thank my cousin."
From Xiao Chong's words, Lin Wanwan heard the magnanimity and mind of serving the country and the people. She felt unspeakably agitated and blurted out: "My cousin is devoted to serving the people. Please forgive my cousin for making a mistake just now. Can I ask why the location was selected?"
Here?"
Xiao Chong explained enthusiastically: "When I was inspecting the public sentiment in the past few months, I was also conducting field surveys. The terrain here is superior, and the mountain is sandwiched between two mountains, locking the two sides of the river. There are mountains along the south side.
To the north is Pyongyang, and there are stone toes between the two sides. Using this terrain can save countless fortifications.
Wouldn't it be a good thing to build a dam here to cut off the internal and external rivers, thereby blocking the inflow of water from the East China Sea, and solving the problem of fertile fields turning into brine, fresh water shortages, and constant floods in Luang County in one fell swoop?"
Lin Wanwan thought of a sentence engraved on the Taishan weir and couldn't help but say: "When there is waterlogging, seven parts return to the river and three parts go to the stream; when there is a drought, seven parts go to the stream and three parts go to the river. With such a Tashan weir, then supplement it."
With Qi Gate, a water conservancy system is complete."
Xiao Chong's eyes lit up like stars when he heard this, and he praised: "What my cousin said is absolutely true. I didn't expect that my cousin also knows about water conservancy. Could it be that my master has taught me? So where does my cousin think the sluice gate should be built?"
Lin Wanwan came back to her senses and said humbly: "I understand it a little bit. Master, of course he knows everything. It's just that I am not good at studying and I only know a little bit about it.
However, since my cousin has made up his mind to build the weir, I will also contribute some efforts. If my cousin doesn’t think I am stupid, I will go back and think more about it, and try to provide some immature suggestions to my cousin.
?”
Xiao Chong smiled and bowed: "Well, I would like to thank my cousin first."
Xiao Chong had no doubts about Lin Wanwan's vision and knowledge. She always brought him a lot of surprises.
After several contacts, he had long felt that Lin Wanwan's tolerance and openness of thought far exceeded his own. Her master was by no means a sour Confucian who was restrained in self-denial and propriety, but must be a bold and unrestrained person, especially for him.
appetite.
It's a pity that he didn't get to see him.
In his life, he has been taught by famous teachers since he was a child, but there are very few people who truly admire him to the core. But the hidden master shrouded in mist described by Lin Wanwan is definitely the one who has taught him so far.
The one who caused the most shock.
After chatting casually with Xiao Chong about Taishan Weir, Lin Wanwan said goodbye and left.
She has determined that what Xiao Chong wants to build is Taishan Weir, which is almost the same as that of later generations. This guy is definitely an amazing all-rounder. He actually knows everything, and he can even do water conservancy.
Even if Lin Wanwan stands on the shoulders of historical giants, she would not dare to point out such matters. After all, she does not understand water conservancy.
However, there would be no problem in waiting for her to go back and check the information and provide Xiao Chong with some correct ideas.
Although the Taishan Weir itself is a representative of high technology and high level in history and is a miracle in the history of water conservancy construction, modern experts are amazed when studying its design principles.
But after all, Xiao Chong is not Wang Yuanwei in history. What if the Taishanyan under his auspices deviates from history? And with the information she provided from later generations, Xiao Chong will definitely be able to avoid all detours and achieve perfection.
Already.
This excitement of participating in a major historical event did not gradually calm down until Lin Wanwan's carriage drove into Lin's Village.
