This line is divided into two parts, the first part is the original rivers and canals, dredging through Taihu Lake and Dianshan Lake, because on the original some rivers, the amount of engineering is not too vast, but its appearance can effectively regulate the water level of the entire Taihu Lake Basin, the Grand Canal is between Taihu Lake and Dianshan Lake, that is, this canal is also connected with the Grand Canal, and there is a meaning, that is, the second part. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

The second part starts from Dianshan Lake, which is not a whole at the moment, but it is about to become a whole, and it is not difficult to communicate, and then it turns to the southeast and then to the northeast.

Well, the Huangpu River, it is the Huangpu River.

When it comes to the Huangpu River, later generations have two more ideas, one is that it will divide Shanghai in half, Pudong and Puxi, and the other is the significance of transportation.

In fact, its real significance is that it is one of the most important water conservancy hubs in Shanghai!

With this canal, the flood in the central and southern parts of the entire Shanghai area can be discharged to the Yangtze River and the sea in time.

When it comes to Shanghai, it can be mentioned that Huang Daopo, it is Huang Daopo's cotton spinning technology that makes Songjiang cotton promoted, and in the middle of the Ming Dynasty, because of the cotton industry, Songjiang is rich in the world. But the world often ignores one point, the Huangpu River!

The Huangpu River was excavated from the Yongle period, and Hairui was further dredged and repaired, which took shape. However, at that time, the Ming Dynasty forbade the sea, so the significance of shipping was not great, but because of this canal, the entire Shanghai area was fully developed, creating the development of cotton, agriculture, fishing and commerce, and creating a "rich world".

Cai Qu's idea is very good, with this canal, the entire Huating County will be developed and utilized, and adjust the water conservancy of Taihu Lake, and at the same time, with the help of this canal, you can build a good port as a new city ship, one can communicate the Grand Canal, the second is also a natural haven, and the third can bypass the suffering of the Qiantang River tide. Its emergence will have a far-reaching impact on commerce and agriculture in the southeast.

However, the stakes are too great.

Just like the three years of Xining, Jia Kang said in the book that Wuzhong water conservancy, the water conservancy in the world is not as beautiful as paddy fields, and the beauty of paddy fields is not as beautiful as Suzhou, but because of the indiscriminate occupation of Haoqiang, the lake is a field and the river is a field, and the flood water cannot be discharged, so it is often flooded and cannot make good use of this area. Therefore, it is proposed to transform the low-lying area, five miles and seven miles for a longitudinal pool, and seven miles and ten miles for a horizontal pond, so that the pond is deep and wide and the embankment is high and thick, so that the water of the river and the sea cannot be poured into the people's fields, and the flood will be discharged, so as not to form waterlogging. The imperial court agreed, but due to Haoqiang's obstruction, it only lasted for a year and a half, and then left Suzhou gloomily.

If it remains unchanged, there will be tosses in the future, from the end of the Song Dynasty to the Southern Song Dynasty, the imperial court has always intended to rectify the chaotic situation in the Taihu Lake Basin, but it has never been able to implement it well.

There are too many rich and powerful people in this area, not to mention other areas, just one Huating County liquor business, which brings nearly 70,000 yuan to the imperial court in a year. At present, although Huating County is the largest in the southeast, it is not the best area.

Looking at the backgrounds of the two of them, they are both lifting people, but the Song Dynasty is also worthless, although Duan Tianshui has assisted Cheng Fang with merit, but now he is idle at home, and he is only a civilian.

Zhang recommended to be a little better, it turned out that he did a good job in Mizhou City, and the imperial court placed the bank department and the administration, and he entered the Mizhou administration as an important staff officer, and because of his merit, he was appreciated by Zhang Shangying and transferred to the Beijing Bank Division, but he was still a staff officer, in fact, he was a slightly important official!

With their little arms and legs, they simply can't preside over such a big project.

"This section of Suzhou has nothing to do with you, a certain has transferred Yang Qiangu, the head of the household department, to the Liangzhejiang Road transfer envoy (Yang Ji, the hero of the Zhibian Road), Shen Pi to the Suzhou Zhizhou (Shen Kuo's brother, who has presided over the Wanchunwei and Liumenyan projects), and Jia Zhengfu (Jia Ling) has been transferred from Jiangdong to Xiuzhou Zhizhou. As for you, Zhang Jian, I want to take you as the magistrate of Huating, and Duan Tianshui as the master of Huating. ”

These three are all people with a background, that is, the sky has collapsed, and there are people above who are holding it for you, and these three people are all good at water conservancy.

But the most important ...... It's the official.

It's not a random errand job, but the real magistrate and the main bo, the magistrate and the main bo, a tight county (the Song Dynasty divided the county into Chi County, Qi County, Wang County, Tight County, Shang County, Middle County, Middle and Lower County, etc., but Chi County and Ji County mostly refer to the counties around Beijing, and the remaining state capitals are only the last six ranks, and the tight counties are the second class).

Zhang Jian said in a trembling voice: "Gong Cai, I have a lot of talents, why did I let my subordinates and Brother Duan go to Huating to preside over such a huge water conservancy?" ”

The matter was still caused by Jia Yan.

Jia Kang is a native of Taicang, Suzhou, so he has a better understanding of the local situation, he has written four volumes of "Wumen Water Conservancy Book", just Xining changed the law, and greatly revitalized water conservancy, so Xining three years he wrote "Suzhou Water Conservancy Six Losses and Six Gains" and "Seven Things to Govern the Fields", Xining five years as a judge of Sinong Temple to promote the two Zhejiang water conservancy, but he also surrounded the lake as a river, angered the local heroes, plus the old school of ministers fanned the flames, only a year later, dismissed the official and went home.

But he was not convinced, so he opened a polder cliff in his hometown of Taicang, practiced his own water conservancy theory, and obtained a bumper harvest that year. A few years later, the imperial court hired him again, except for him as a Jiangdong transfer judge.

Last year, when he heard the news of the waterlogging in his hometown, coupled with the changing atmosphere of the imperial court, he wrote to Cai Qu again, hoping that the imperial court would send people to renovate the water conservancy in the Taihu Lake basin, otherwise Taihu Lake will not be the beauty of Suzhou in the future, but the suffering of Suzhou.

Before Wang Ju left the capital, he had a long talk with Cai Qu, and the two discussed a lot of things, and Cai did talk about Jia Qian's book. Wang Ju didn't even think about it, so he vetoed it.

The reason is very simple, although the strategy of Jia's management of the Taihu Lake basin is not only to enclose the lake and river, but the theme idea is to enclose the lake, so as to increase the function of water storage and drainage, flood discharge, drought irrigation, and at the same time prevent the suffering of the two major tides from backfilling. The idea is right, but it is impossible to let Haoqiang vacate the enclosed fields on a large scale and turn the lake into a river again.

Second, if you want to implement Jia Kang's strategy, you must send people down to inspect and measure, and send capable officials to force and fight wits and tactics with the powerful and powerful, which will take a long time, but the old party will soon come to power, and it will be too late.

Finally, because of technology, in fact, compared with later generations, the area of development today is not too much, and the area of lakes and swamps is much larger than that of later generations, so there are small waterlogs in the Taihu Lake area every year, but there are not many large-scale waterlogs. Even if all of Jia's strategies are implemented, they cannot completely prevent the occurrence of waterlogging. Think about the future generations, just the Three Gorges can store tens of billions of cubic meters of floodwater, but in the big flood season, there are still many areas suffering from waterlogging, and this is the time. However, some people don't care if it's a big flood season, all they see is such a toss, but there are still floods. Okay, that's the way to attack.

Cai did sigh.

Wang Ju knew his intentions, and said that even in the early years, it was not possible, at that time, in order to smoothly implement the new laws and regulations, Wang Ju continued to make concessions and compromises to various forces, so even then, Wang Ju would not adopt Jia Yan's opinion.

However, when Wang Ju said this, he stared at this piece of map, and suddenly thought of the Huangpu River in his mind.

He really didn't think about it before, after all, at that time, he only considered a few ills of the country and Western Xia, and the country's center of gravity was also in the north, no one mentioned it, where could he take care of the water conservancy of a certain county in the southeast.

But now that someone has mentioned it, he also thinks of this famous canal. In the previous life, I didn't pay much attention to it, at most I knew that the Huangpu River divided Shanghai into two and provided transportation convenience at the same time. But standing at the current height, he immediately thought of its water value.

And unlike the Ming and Qing dynasties, the Song Dynasty would not ban the sea, even if Gao Tao came to power, he might make some crazy moves, but it was only a few years!

So with this canal, not only can the whole territory of Huating County be developed, but at the same time, it will not be long before it will create a super prosperous city. So Wang Ju put forward this idea, and Cai Qu's eyes also lit up.

The two discussed for a while.

According to the original system, to excavate this vast canal, the imperial court had to send several relevant river control envoys to preside over the project, and then Suzhou Xiuzhou and the Liangzhejiang Road transport envoys to cooperate with it.

However, you can't do that, because the timing is not right.

The canal project is so large that it will not be possible to succeed immediately, but will take at least several years. However, perhaps the old party will come to power at any time, and the performance of those scholars and doctors will immediately stop this project when the Yuanyou party is fighting in history.

Therefore, the best way is to treat it coldly, the so-called cold treatment, that is, the court does not come forward, and it is presided over by local officials, not even by state-level officials, only county-level officials. It's just a county-level local project, so there's not much point in doing it.

But here's the problem.

Nowadays, it is relatively easy to find a few ministers who are proficient in water conservancy. After all, since Xining, the imperial court has carried out many water conservancy projects, some successful and some failed, and it is clear at a glance whether they are proficient in water conservancy or not.

But it is impossible for these ministers to let them serve as a magistrate and a prefect.

There is also the problem of a financial officer.

If you want to carry out this project, it will be expensive. But because of the northwest, the imperial court's finances are also very tight, and it is impossible to allocate tens of millions of dollars for Huating County to build this canal. Or drag it out until the year after tomorrow, God knows what form it will be in the year after tomorrow, I can't figure it out at that time, Cai did leave the court a long time ago, and Wang Ju also went to the other side.

Therefore, the best way is for the imperial court to allocate two or three million yuan this year, although this wealth is also huge, but it will not reach the point where the old party deliberately suppresses it in the future.

Then, next year, the other side will support three or four million, four or five million. No matter how much it is, it will not work, because even if the other side does not care about its own development, and the amount of money and silk reaches a certain level, it will attract the attention of the old party. As long as the old party paid attention, with their hatred for Wang Ju, they still stopped this project.

At the same time, because the old party came to power, it must not disturb the people too much, otherwise it will give an excuse to attack.

On the premise of not disturbing the people, this money will be very tight, and it is necessary to have a very financial master and make reasonable use of every penny.

It's also hard to find a minister who manages money like this, yes, but it's impossible for them to just serve as a county magistrate?

The two thought about it for a long time, but they didn't expect that there would be a low-level official with such ability. There must be, but with the status of the two of them, it is impossible to deal with such an official, and the two of them don't know.

Wang Ju sighed, this is my mistake. That is, if he had thought of the Huangpu River a few years earlier, he would not have had to be so troublesome.

However, regret is useless, so Wang Ju thought of the relevant officials. With their status, they have less to do with the officials, but these officials are attached to some important officials and give advice to them, as long as they keep an eye on some important officials, they can easily find out some capable talents.

Duan and Zhang came out step by step in this way.

Cai Qu said: "The country recruits talents, uses talents, and recruits talents, but since the founding of our dynasty, the military generals are one is Enyin, the other is military exploits, and the first is the imperial examination, and the other is Enyin, but it ignores another broader group, Xu officials. Officials have the opportunity to be sharpened, and there is also a chance for them to display their talents. Therefore, the appointment of two people is not only for water conservancy, but also for the first time, so that more talents can be used by the country. Once more officials enter the officialdom, it will surely inspire the confidence of the officials, from the officials to the officials, from the officials to the officials, the whole body is united, loyal to the monarch and serve the country, and the Great Song Dynasty will inevitably be governed. ”

The administrative system of the Song Dynasty only reached the county level, that is, the county level, at most, there were only four officials, the county magistrate, the county lord Bo and the county lieutenant, and the rest were either the prison officials, but that had nothing to do with government affairs, and the rest were Xu officials, in fact, in later generations, these Xu officials were also important local officials.

But Cai Qu's words can't be taken seriously.

He has to prepare for the retirement of the prime minister, and he still has the heart to take care of more talents for the country.

And even Wang Ju didn't dare to shout loudly, in addition to Enyin and the imperial examination, the state must allocate a large number of talents from the officials to serve as state officials.

However, where did Duan Tianshui and Zhang Jian know about the situation inside?

The two left Zhongshu in a daze, and they didn't react for a long time.

One is to become an official official.

The second is to preside over such a large water conservancy, maybe he will be able to leave a name in history.

Third, it was not done well, and it became a "precedent" for the state to begin to formally appoint officials.

However, both of them are shrewd and capable figures, and after most of the day, Zhang Jian was the first to sober up and said, "Brother Ziya, the direction of the court is not right." ”

One by one, coupled with the frequent personnel transfers of the imperial court, and even rumors in the capital, most of the people held a pessimistic attitude, thinking that the imperial court began to be suspicious of Wang Ju.

Wang Ju and Cai Qu are one in the hearts of the people, and if the court suppresses Wang Ju, it will definitely suppress Cai Qu.

Without Cai Qu's support, how could this water conservancy project be successful?

"Luping, that's right." Duan Tianshui was also worried.

Without the strong support of the imperial court, and the status of the two is low, they went to preside over such a large water conservancy project, which is not to be an official and make a name for themselves, but to seek death. A mere conflict of interest could send two people to eighteen layers of hell.

They don't worry much, it's just a sign of high intelligence.

Of course, without this high IQ, they would not have performed well in the past, and they would not have been selected by Cai Qu's subordinates from among the tens of millions of officials.

At this moment, a young man ran out of a liquor store and shouted, "There is a fight." ”

Duan Tianshui and Zhang Jian were stunned, as Chinese, they also like to watch the excitement, so they stopped and what was fighting.

Who knew that a few more scholars came out later, and one of the scholars said: "The rise of the Great Song Dynasty starts from now on!" ”

From the sentence engraved by Wang Ju in Hengqu Academy, reading for the rise of the Great Song Dynasty.

Reading is for the country, not for the Golden House and Yan Ruyu!

"This virtuous brother, what is the fight?" Zhang Jian couldn't help but stop a scholar and asked.

"The imperial court issued an edict to officially cut down the summer."

Originally, the plan was to start cutting summer in late March.

At that time, the weather was just right, and there were still some materials and armor that could be sent to the front line in the future, and the Goryeo people got weapons, and it was also only then that they could be sent to the front line, so as to have some constraints on the Liao State.

But because of Black Khan's sudden use of troops, Wang Ju had to advance the operation by nearly a month.

The imperial court negotiated peace, and since ancient times, China's diplomacy has been very clumsy, benevolent and trustworthy to the outside world, and they have forgotten how the Qin State unified China step by step during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, and what happened to the Qi State that emphasized benevolence, righteousness and trustworthiness.

Wang Ju didn't want to talk about this anymore.

Therefore, there must be a justifiable reason, and this reason is that the sentence is better than the slave, straight through Helan, and the mainstay.

Our Song Dynasty has such a big advantage that we actually agreed to negotiate peace, but why did you Western Xia send scouts to sneak into Shaanxi Road and hype up this rumor to drive a wedge between our Song Dynasty monarchs and ministers?

Since you Western Xia did not abide by the idea of peace, why did our Song Dynasty still abide by this peace agreement? Could it be that the Song Dynasty is so cheap!

In this way, there is righteousness.

So Huanqing Road and Dunyan Road wantonly arrested these Western Xia scouts, and obtained confessions with severe torture, and then sent these scouts to the capital, and finally to the Liao State. It's not that our Great Song Dynasty doesn't give you face, but that Western Xia forced our Great Song Dynasty to tear up the peace treaty.

But before these scouts were sent to the capital, these confessions were first sent to the capital by fast horses, so the capital issued an edict, tore up the peace treaty, and issued an edict to officially destroy Xia, or officially destroy Xia.

The edict began to be issued before the two entered the Zhongshu, but because of the low status of the two, they were not heard. Perhaps these scholars have a certain way, and when they heard this edict, they were overjoyed and cheered.

"Okay!" Zhang Jian slapped his thigh, this is not only good news for the Song Dynasty, but also good news for the two of them! (To be continued.) )
