Chapter 716: The Great Project

"During the Taihe period, the salt and iron ponds were dredged, the ponds were excavated on both banks, the weir gates were built, the water was blocked in the east of the gang, and the high fields were irrigated."

"At the end of the Tang Dynasty, there were already patches of Tangpu polders in the north of the Wusong River, and with the popularity of waterwheels, drought and flood could not be reached."

"During the Wuyue period, Hudong continued to improve the Tangpu polder, continued to dredge the 24 Pu of Haiyu, and placed weir gates on one river and one pu, and the years were abundant."

"In the early years of our dynasty, due to the war, the lake was once destroyed and the weir was destroyed, which led to the aggravation of drought and flood."

"In the second year of Jingyou, Fan Wenzheng supervised Jun Baimao, Fushan, Hupu, Qiya and other Dapu to facilitate the drainage."

"In the second year of Qingli, Changzhou opened the ports of Tongjiang in Changzhou, and irrigated thousands of hectares."

"But what is sad is that due to the huge amount of money and the lack of support for the west, the Taihu Lake renovation project had to be stopped."

"Yunshuai, after years of population reproduction, land change, and system corruption, now the Dongjiang River and the Loujiang River in the three major water systems have been annihilated one after another, and the Wusong River is also shallow and narrow."

After speaking, he pressed the east side of Taihu Lake with the palm of his hand: "As soon as the water arrives, the three rivers cannot be discharged, resulting in the accumulated lake water overflowing through the depression in the east of the lake. From the previous order, to disorder. Let the former land of fish and rice become a water town. ”

"Yun Shuai, look at it again, before the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the area of Taihu Lake was much larger, and the lake water of the Tang Dynasty could reach the shore of Wujiang River in this area. Dongting East Mountain and West Mountain were originally the two major islands in the lake. ”

"Today's waters are far away from the Wujiang River, and there is a tendency for Dongshan to connect with the lakeshore."

"These are caused by the sediment entering the lake, and although the process is very slow, it must be taken seriously."

"To solve these problems, we need to start from both upstream and downstream."

"Upstream, build dams in Xuxi, Nanhe and Nanxi, and connect the Meizhu River, Daxi River and Daibu River along the line to increase the amount of water entering Taihu Lake."

"In the upper reaches of the Daxi River, Daibu River, and Cuxi River, build Dapu to store tide and retain water, and increase the ability to regulate and control water sources in the upper reaches."

"The water system of Taozhu Lake is unique, the water comes from the eastern foot of Maoshan Mountain in the west, and the Taihu Lake is injected into the east after being stored in Taohu Lake and Zhuhu Lake. There are also Dangyang, Gucheng, Shijiu, and Nanzhu in the west. ”

"These six natural lakes need to be put to good use, and we can continue to raise the embankment and set up sluices to increase their water storage."

"Between the various river systems, the north-south rivers used for flood diversion, river diversion, and navigation dispatch should continue to be maintained and repaired."

"The Danjin River, Licao River, Zhaocun River, Mengjin River, Wuyi River between the canal and the Nanhe River and the Nanxi River, and the Hexi River, Xili River, Cao River, etc. between the Taozhu Lake and the canal, all need to be improved and repaired......"

"Stop! Wait a minute! I'm a little panicked! Su You hurriedly stopped the gushing Jia Yan, and looked at the dense red lines and red circles in the upper reaches of Taihu Lake on the map: "Gong Jia, don't be busy first, these lines won't talk about it, what are these big circles?" Reservoir?! You're going to build a reservoir upstream?! It's just circles on the map, have you calculated how much work this is?! ”

Jia Kang arched his hand: "Judgment, this is a major event that benefits the future, Liangzhejiang Road is now a serious famine, it is a good time for the Daxing project, only one hundred and two meals a day......"

"Stop!" Su You stopped again: "The civil servants under my hands have never been said to be a hundred dollars a day!" That's hanging, where can you still work? ”

Zhang Qi flipped through the books that Jia Kang gave him: "Young master, according to the amount of work of Jia Gong, not to mention those big lakes and big pools, just the transformation of the upstream rivers will total five hundred miles, which is a big project of two million yuan. ”

"Oh?" Su You breathed a sigh of relief: "It doesn't seem to be much, ha? Don't forget that we can build cement plants, explosives factories. ”

"But what about the six lakes embankment project, as well as the Taihu Lake itself, as well as these reservoirs, this is the big tiger, right? How many river renovation projects do you have to deal with?! ”

Jia Kang was a little stunned: "Uh, Yun Shuai is afraid that the amount of work in Shaanxi and Shuzhong has been moved here, right?" Luzhou South Nest, the deepest is only two zhang, Hangzhou West Lake, because it has not been repaired for many years, it is covered by grass and vines, and it is not even a zhang. ”

"So our two Zhejiang Road Dapu is different from other places, these Dapu, only need to choose a favorable location, build a six-foot-high causeway, can be completed, than the amount of Biankou construction in Bianjing City, only a little less."

"Huh? Hahahaha, is it...... Elder Jia, did you say it earlier......"

The large reservoir in the later generations of Sichuan was indeed carried out by the local people 30 years after liberation, but the strong organization, planning, and construction capabilities of the later generations also took tens of thousands of people ten years!

The height of the dam is usually more than ten meters, and at its peak, there are 100,000 people on the construction site!

If, as Jia Kang said, the Soviet Union and China can build a reservoir just by building a project like the Yellow River embankment, then this business is cost-effective!

Seeing that Su You's face had improved, Jia Kang said cautiously: "There is also downstream river management, and it is impossible to drain water through the three rivers, but the three overall directions of north, east and south have not changed. ”

"The project is mainly divided into three places, one is to open Fanjiabang in Kunshan, connect the Huangpu River and connect the Yangtze River. Mishidu is also divided into three branches, the north is Xietang, Maohe, and barricade port, which is connected with Dianshan Lake; In the middle is the garden drain, and the upper part is connected to Yuhuitang; The south is Maogang, and the water comes from Hangjia Lake. ”

"The second is Pubei, connecting Dianshan Lake, Chenghu Lake and its surrounding Yuandang, Baixian Lake, Changbaidang, Bailian Lake, Jinji Lake, Dushu Lake, etc., through the Wusong River, Rapid Water Port, Niuchangjing Pond, Badang River and other waterways."

"The third is Punan, with the Taipu River as the dry river, connecting the large and small lakes such as Ant Yang, Taohuayang, Fen Lake, Ma Xie Lake, and Qian Shengdang,"

"In addition, in the area north of the canal to the Liuhe River, according to the terrain, there are three water systems along the river in Yangcheng, Chengxiyu and Huxi."

"Each of the above water systems includes countless large and small waterways, lakes, and ponds; And every area can create countless fertile fields! ”

"As long as ...... Just ......"

Su You looked at Jia Kang: "Say it boldly, you can't scare me!" ”

Jia Kang plucked up his courage: "The main project, only five million!" ”

Su You touched his chin: "Fifty-five thousand, twenty-five thousand hectares of land can protect the capital." ”

Jia was anxious: "If all these projects are completed, there will be at least 50,000 hectares of cultivated land!" ”

Su You's eyes lit up: "This is Beili?" ”

Jia Kang waved his hand: "This is not the northern watered land, these are all paddy fields with two seasons and three crops, at least two crops!" The yield per mu is more than double that of the irrigated land in the north, and the paddy field of 600 catties per mu is handsome! ”

Depend on! Beili has to be doubled!

Only then did Su You react that in later generations, there were very few double-cropping rice planted in the country, but he forgot that there was such a period of time in history in the Soviet Union and China.

It's a pity that Suyou is not crossed by Jiangsu, if he knew that the cultivated area of the Taihu Lake basin in later generations was as high as 230,000 hectares, of which the paddy fields alone were nearly 200,000 hectares, which was several times more than Jia Kang's estimate and the existing reclamation area, he would have asked to start construction a long time ago.

Now he looked at the lake and was fascinated: "No wonder the storage is running so fast, this budget is overspent by five times......"

Cai Jing arched his hand: "Ming Gong, don't forget the "Financial Theory", with the friendship between Ming Gong and Sitong, you can find a loan from the Huangsong Bank!" ”

"Huh?" Su You laughed angrily: "Do you know how much the available principal of the Imperial Song Bank is now?" There are less than 7 million left this year! The rest have already listed the investment plan, and the bank's business philosophy is first of all to be stable and long-term. ”

Cai Jing said: "Then we will build another bank!" Based on the output of Huaiyang Salt Farm, the water conservancy project will be divided into three years according to the ratio of 235, and only 20% of the funds are needed in the first year, and 1 million yuan is enough. ”
