Chapter 815 Cement formula to nip problems in the bud
Zhu Biao was a little shocked. He didn't expect that Zhu Han had actually arranged everything. He was still worried about Zhu Han.
"Uncle Emperor, you have taken care of everything clearly. Didn't you have arrangements for Gao Fei to go to Yingtian Mansion this time?"
Zhu Biao had some hindsight.
Although he knew that Zhu Han worked very hard for the people of the world.
He was really curious as to whether Zhu Yuanzhang's imperial edict could reach Jiangnan.
Zhu Han looked at Zhu Biao and smiled.
He has already seen these things more clearly, and will not be much affected by them.
But now, he no longer wants to participate in the affairs of Yingtian Mansion.
There were many officials in the court who did not care about their own impeachment. Zhu Han still went his own way.
"Your Highness, there is no need to worry. Since I have already done this, I will settle everything immediately so that the prince has no worries."
Having been with Zhu Han for such a long time, Zhu Biao knew very well that as long as Zhu Han said this, he actually had a better chance of winning than anyone else.
With Zhu Han's words, Zhu Biao was finally able to calm down.
"His Royal Highness, Prince!"
The voices of Song Lian and He Fengyu came from outside.
Zhu Han stood up slowly, opened the study door, and saw He Fengyu looking anxious.
"Master, something bad is going on. It seems like it's going to rain heavily outside. The rainy season in Jiangnan has been advanced by half a month this year."
He Fengyu was very anxious.
He also just learned from experienced people that the rainy season has been brought forward.
Now it is imminent. A little carelessness will cause some impact on the dam, and they must not let this happen.
Zhu Han was a little confused after hearing his words.
"The rainy season is very punctual every year. Don't listen to other people's slanders."
"If the rainy season is really advanced, there will be experienced water inspectors who will report to us. Those are people controlled by the government, and they cannot be changed by others with a few words."
Zhu Han was still somewhat confident, but He Fengyu was still very anxious.
"This year is different from previous years. The dams of the Yellow River have begun to get old. In addition, we have been building dams and collecting soil these days, which makes the soil on both sides of the Yellow River become more and more loose."
He Fengyu would not do anything unprepared. He had already asked many people before and got the best plan, and then he dared to come over and report to Zhu Han.
"This has allowed the water in the Yellow River to gradually stabilize. But now the weather is going to rain soon. I asked several experienced people, and they all said that the rainy season may be advanced."
Zhu Han sat calmly on the chair, looking seriously ahead.
Seeing that Song Lian and He Fengyu looked a little ugly, he seemed to be fine.
"Why are you so panicked? The community has started to complete it now. After Gao Fei gets the formula, the cement will start building the dam immediately."
Zhu Han was confident that he still had a chance of winning and could handle this big event.
"In just a few days, everyone along the route will be able to drink water quickly. Even if the rainy season comes earlier, the Yellow River will never burst its banks immediately at this time."
With Zhu Han's words, He Fengyu and Song Lian got to know each other.
"Since the prince has already said so, then there must be no problem."
The two of them breathed a sigh of relief, sat next to Zhu Han, and finally were able to drink tea and relax.
He Fengyu finally understood that Zhu Han had asked them to repair all the dams before, and they could indeed be used for some purpose.
"Master, you are really good at predicting things, but if it really rains tonight, we're afraid we won't have enough time."
He Fengyu followed Zhu Han and saw strong winds and waves.
But if the Yellow River breaks its banks, the people downstream will surely suffer a huge disaster.
The dam they are building upstream is the last line of defense for the people downstream.
Zhu Han gave He Fengyu a meaningful look and took out the drawings for building the river channel that he had given him before.
He pointed to the direction of each river above.
"You can take a closer look. During the course of the routes I designed, even our dykes will eventually be unable to withstand the hazards of the Yellow River's dykes."
Zhu Han told He Fengyu sincerely that when he designed these routes, he had actually taken all factors into consideration.
He had no chance of winning, and there was absolutely no way he would take such a desperate risk.
"See if this route exactly coincides with what I said."
He Fengyu and Zhu Biao immediately looked over.
I saw that the route drawn by Zhu Han on the drawing had already passed through the river channels built by the woods on both sides of the Yellow River.
Not only can it be irrigated through people's fields, but water channels have also been established downstream, all of which can resist the harm caused by digging the ground.
He Fengyu held Zhu Han's drawings and finally understood why this route was so controversial when it was proposed.
"All the water is transported out along the route. In this way, the pressure caused by the bursting of the Yellow River's banks is reduced. As long as the water of the Yellow River does not rush down, there is a chance to save the damage."
He looked at Zhu Han in surprise, his chest rising and falling.
Song Lian sat aside very calmly, although he did not understand these construction techniques.
When he saw the drawing designed by Zhu Han, he already understood Zhu Han's good intentions.
Zhu Han and Song Lian looked at each other and smiled. Song Lian looked at Zhu Han and nodded gently, with admiration for Zhu Han in his eyes.
At this time, Shen Wansan had also rushed back.
"Your Majesty!"
Shen Wansan led a group of people directly into the courtyard of the county government office.
Zhu Han, Zhu Biao and others went out to check.
Shen Wansan asked people to move all the boxes that had been prepared from the carriage.
Zhu Han was a little surprised to see that he had prepared so much food and money.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Executive member Shen, what are you doing?"
With so much money, Zhu Han was really afraid that Shen Wansan was here to bribe him.
Now is the most critical moment. If Shen Wansan really has this intention, he really wants to get some money from Shen Wansan.
This is used as wages for the people.
Shen Wansan stepped forward and handed the classification of the money into Zhu Han's hands. He took the matter seriously.
"This is the countermeasure I discussed with other merchants after I went back last night."
He looked at Zhu Han and told Zhu Han the merchants' last resort.
"Once the Yellow River bursts its banks, we may not be able to continue our business in Jiangnan. So we took the money first to help the people in Jiangnan survive this crisis."
"As long as we can protect Jiangnan, we businessmen can feel free to spend some money."
Shen Wansan has hundreds of acres of fertile farmland. Now he can't even grow medicinal herbs.
As a result, his business in Jiangnan also suffered great losses.
The rest of the merchants who cooperated with him, whether it was the Donghai Chamber of Commerce or the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce, have suffered huge losses in business.
If the Yellow River bursting its banks affects them again, I really don’t know how many things will happen in the future.
Shen Wansan is a man with far-sighted vision.
He had already seen clearly what was happening and didn't want to just sit back and wait for death.
Zhu Han and Zhu Yuanzhang can conquer the world, but their courage is unmatched.
If you can get money for these things, you can help Zhu Han. To him, the money is just a drop in the bucket.
"Your Majesty, we businessmen in Jiangnan are very united. Even the Donghai Chamber of Commerce has heard about it a long time ago. Everyone is trying to find a solution to this matter."
Zhu Han looked at Shen Wansan with admiration. He did not expect that his structure was so big and he could think of the people in Jiangnan.
Zhu Han had some admiration for Shen Wansan.
"Shen, to tell you the truth, if this happened in Yingtian Mansion, I wouldn't take a cent of your money, but now is a critical moment after all, and this money can buy a lot of food."
Zhu Han also felt a little embarrassed.
He cannot accept favors from others for no reason, but these are extraordinary times.
For the sake of the survival of the people of the world and the people of Jiangnan, I really don’t want to let this good opportunity slip away like this.
Zhu Biao and Song Lian nodded lightly towards Zhu Han. They also believed that Zhu Han's approach was indeed foolproof.
Shen Wansan's face was full of joy. Since he could move his money here, he had already made a decision for his own affairs.
In Jiangnan, he said the same thing.
As long as he takes the lead, other businessmen will naturally follow suit.
"What the prince said is that I also want to do my part. Sir, don't worry, I have arranged people on the Yellow River this time to help you build the dam. The arrangements must be made before the rainy season."
Zhu Han nodded repeatedly and looked at Shen Wansan with admiration in his heart.
Shen Wansan contributed both money and effort this time, and also arranged for many people to help them build the dam.
Zhu Han's plan was implemented very quickly.
Late at night, He Fengyu sat next to Zhu Han exhausted.
He held the bowl in his hand and started to eat hungrily.
It didn't rain today as Zhu Han expected, but the sky remained gloomy.
"Master, when will Gao Fei and the others be able to come back? We need to speed up the cement recipe, otherwise I'm afraid there will be a lot of delays."
Zhu Biao on the side was also worried. He had been staying in Jiangnan with Zhu Han for more than half a month.
This time I encountered such a risky thing again, I was afraid that something would go wrong.
Song Lian was relatively calm. He watched Zhu Han pick up the tea in his hand and tasted it carefully, looking leisurely and contented.
"Actually, while in court, the prince and prince don't have to worry, even if others impeach you two."
When he looked at Zhu Biao, he was already very sure of Zhu Biao's talent. Zhu Yuanzhang was so relieved this time that he handed Zhu Biao over to Zhu Han and asked him to take him to Jiangnan.
I just wanted to give him a test, so that no one would bump into Zhu Biao's gun at this time.
"There will be people in the court who can help you solve your problems. Besides, His Majesty has always been on your side."
Song Lian's words gave Zhu Biao a wake-up call, and Zhu Biao turned to look at Zhu Han.
"Uncle Emperor, since you brought me with you to build the dam this time, I also want to contribute."
Zhu Biao was already ready to make a move.
For the sake of his health, Zhu Han never let Zhu Biao do it himself.
This made Zhu Biao's plan to gain a good reputation almost come to nothing.
"Tomorrow I will go to the dike with you and build the dike with the people. How about that?"
Seeing Zhu Biao's sincere thoughts, Zhu Han thought about it again and again. Fortunately, Song Lian was also around, so he had someone to discuss it with.
"Master Song, do you think the prince's affairs are feasible?"
Song Lian looked at Zhu Biao with a smile on his face.
"The prince has grown up and made great progress! I recall that when His Majesty paid a private visit incognito, the prince was able to handle state affairs."
"The prince can naturally handle such a small matter as building a dike."
As Song Lian spoke, he slowly stood up and walked to Zhu Han's side.
"When the people know that the prince can also build the dam with them, they will definitely be more motivated."
Zhu Han smiled lightly, it seemed that he and Song Lian really wanted to get together.
"Since Mr. Song has said so, then just do as he said."
Zhu Biao finally had some joy on his face.
He Fengyu had already finished his meal and lay down on the table and fell asleep.
Zhu Han quickly asked someone to help He Fengyu down first and let him have a good rest.
"You are too exhausted. Take a rest and do it again tomorrow."
He Fengyu stood up slowly and rubbed his sore eyes, his body was shaky.
After listening to Zhu Han's words, he also wanted to salute Zhu Han. Zhu Han looked at him and couldn't laugh or cry.
"Master, the disciple will go to rest first."
He Fengyu has been really busy these past few days.
As an apprentice, he usually just arranges the medicinal materials, but now that he has come to Jiangnan to control floods, he is doing his best.
As soon as He Fengyu left, Zhu Biao and Song Lian saw that it was late and went to rest, leaving Zhu Han alone in the study.
He looked through the county government's measurements of the water level of the North Yellow River in previous years, as well as some of the impacts caused by the floods, and compiled them all.
Candlelight flickers.
Zhu Han flipped through the files night after night, sketching out or copying the important things in them, and waited until dawn to discuss them with Song Lian and others.
Let them know some real situations, Zhu Han did not dare to make any mistakes.
This time the flood control has already been dealt with, so he will not ignore it.
Zhu Han is like a tireless top.
In the dead of night, suddenly there was a sound of horse hooves outside the door, "Tuk, Tuk, Tuk, Tuk!"
Zhu Han slowly closed the file in his hand, stood up and walked to the door.
He and Gao Fei seemed to have a lot of tacit understanding.
"Squeak!"
As soon as Zhu Han opened the door, Gao Fei jumped off the horse, and the two of them looked at each other and were stunned.
"Your Majesty, I'm back!"
Gao Fei hurriedly stepped forward without taking a breath, and handed the imperial edict in his arms and the banknotes given by Zhang Fengnian into Zhu Han's hands.
The box was heavy, and Zhu Han held it in his arms, feeling like it was a debt weighing on his heart.
Zhu Han took Gao Fei and sighed as he walked to the study room.
"Zhang Fengnian, this guy really solved a big problem for us."
