Hu Wei decided to build a workers' river for Greentown to develop Greentown's economy, and like Times Square, artificial rivers have never appeared in the Tianfeng Continent, but unlike Times Square, artificial rivers are very practical things, not like Times Square, it is completely Hu Wei's imagination.

Locking himself in the study, Hu Wei spent five full days looking for the most suitable location on the map, until last night, Hu Wei finally settled on the place, and got up early this morning to prepare to see it on the spot.

This time, Hu Wei repeatedly told himself that he must not be in a hurry like Times Square, and he must think twice before making a decision, he has missed it once, and this time no matter how it is, it can't be wrong.

What came out with Hu Wei was the red leaves, Hu Wei promised her to find a good day to walk around, and today she came out to see the field, just to walk around.

"The scenery outside is good, although the palace is all man-made, it can't compare to the natural scenery. ”

Hongye wore a goose-colored dress today, the faint yellow matched her skin very well, and she looked like a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl from a distance, pure and cute, and Hu Wei was a little stunned for a while.

didn't get a response, Momiji turned around and found that Hu Wei was looking at him blankly, his little face was red for no reason, revealing a little shame.

"Idiot, what are you looking at. "Maybe it's because the scenery is too good, maybe it's because the mood is too good, Momiji seems to have returned to the time when she first saw Hu Yu, a girl's heart that hasn't appeared for a long time, replacing the wise female general.

Some people say that a man no matter how old he is. All retain a juvenile heart. They look powerful on the outside, but in fact they look like children a lot of the time. In fact, women are the same, the feelings of girls are the true nature of a woman, it is life that suppresses their nature, but it has never disappeared, no matter how old a woman likes to be coquettish is the best proof.

"Momiji, you're so beautiful. Hu Wei said stupidly. At this minute, he is not a general, nor is he the master of a country, but a hairy guy who has just met a woman.

A special experience. So that Hu Wei has not experienced a normal childhood, and it is precisely because of this that Hu Wei's childlike heart is almost not used, and it is still brand new.

Momiji smiled with joy. There is no woman who does not like to be praised by others. Regardless of whether a woman has a good look or not, she thinks she has a bit of a good look, and appearance is one of the things that a woman values the most, and many times they like to be praised for being beautiful, rather than being smart or capable.

"It's all old, and there's nothing pretty. Momiji smiled happily, hoping that Hu Wei would give her more compliments.

If any man stupidly agrees with the woman's statement at this time, then wait for the hardship. Fortunately, Hu Wei is not the stupid man who looks like him, and it is impossible for him to say something like 'indeed old'. He took Momiji's little hand and kissed her on the forehead. Said affectionately: "In my eyes, you will always be so beautiful." ”

The biggest difference between a playboy and a wooden man is in the mouth, women don't like to listen to the truth, the playboy understands and can naturally satisfy women, so he will get the favor of most women, while the wooden man's mouth is always the truth, and naturally he can't get the favor of women. Although Hu Wei is not a princess of flowers, she knows what women want.

Today's weather is not too good, cloudy and not sunny, but it is a good day for a day out. Hu Wei and Hongye sat back to back by a small river, which was the place where Hu Wei was going to build an artificial river.

There is a saying that man will conquer heaven. A lot of the time that's. Nature has infinite power, and human beings are only a part of nature, and they do not have the ability to defeat nature, but they have the ability to transform nature, such as building an artificial river. ...,

Hu Wei leaned against the red leaves. Tell the scheming in your heart. Now the river is small and narrow. The water is not deep either, and there is no ability to sail. Hu Wei's artificial river is going to be dug and widened on the basis of this small river, so that it can be navigated, so that Greentown's goods can be transported out, and the economy will naturally develop.

"Momiji, are you listening?" Hu Wei finished the whole plan, but he didn't get Momiji's reaction, and he couldn't help but be a little anxious. He turned to look at Momiji.

Behind a successful man there is often a woman who silently supports him, and Hongye is such a woman, for more than ten years, she has always silently supported Hu Wei and approved of his decision.

But this time, Momiji didn't make a sound. The red leaves that appeared in Hu Wei's eyes were worried at this time. She didn't know what the artificial river was, she only knew that it was a very huge and time-consuming project, and before Times Square, no one would oppose any project proposed by Hu Wei, but now, as a lesson from the past, I am afraid it will not be so smooth.

"Momiji, you don't have faith in me, do you?"

Hu Wei instantly understood the meaning of the red leaves. Although she did not explicitly object, she did not agree with Hu Wei's decision for the first time.

Momiji shook his head and said, "It's not that I don't have confidence in you, it's just that the project of this artificial river is too big." ”

Hu Wei proposed the idea of an artificial river, and the autumn leaves were completely unprepared. At this time, she had a lot of words in her heart, but she never knew how to express them tactfully.

When I was listening to Hu Wei proposing an artificial river just now, Hongye's first reaction was what the people would think. After all, the disaster in Langtian City was too devastating, and a Times Square made a large river disappear from the map, and millions of lives were wiped out. Once the plan of the artificial river is known to the people, will they worry that Greentown will become the second Langtian City?

Momiji is not thinking about the workers' river, but about Hu's situation. Hu Wei had just recovered from the disaster in Langtian City, and she was afraid that Hu Wei would be hit again.

"I know it's a big project and requires a lot of resources, but after it's completed, it's a huge benefit to Greentown." ”

Hu Wei tries to convince Momiji. If the side of the red leaves do not support him. So how can he get the support of other people? Of course, he knew the current situation, and almost the eyes of the entire continent were watching him, and no matter what he moved, it would attract countless gossip, but that didn't mean that he could do nothing. If that's the case, he might as well simply take his wife and children to live in seclusion, with their skills, are they still afraid that they won't be able to live a good life?

Momiji hesitated for a while and said, "Let's go back and talk about it, let's discuss it together." ”

There was silence in the palace. Hu Wei has just told everyone about his plan, and now he is waiting for everyone's opinions. The situation is strikingly similar to the first time he sued Hongye, whether it is Ouyang Hanbing, Ximen Yufeng, or Chen Dali, they will all stop talking.

Jebel saw that everyone did not speak. I couldn't help but ask: "The young master's artificial river plan is a great help to both Greentown and the common people, why don't you seem to agree?"

Human nature is often unchangeable, and Jebe has hardly changed since he followed Hu Wei for so many years. If she had learned to be utilitarian, she wouldn't have spoken at this time.

Fortunately, Jebel is Jebe, if it weren't for her character, Hu Wei wouldn't have stayed by her side for so many years.

Ouyang Hanbing glanced around at everyone and said, "Let me say a few words first." ”

No matter what aspect it is, Ouyang Hanbing should speak, and he must speak. If she, the queen of Ningnan, doesn't speak, then today's discussion will be cold. ...,

Ouyang Hanbing said: "Everyone is very clear about the current situation. I don't know much about artificial rivers, but it must be a big project, shouldn't we think about it more?"

Ouyang Hanbing's meaning was actually to disagree, but he was afraid of hurting Hu Wei's feelings so he used the word 'off'. Judging from the current situation, it is better to have more than one thing, and if you don't do it well, all kinds of problems will arise.

In other words, because of the incident in Langtian City, Ouyang Hanbing's confidence in Hu Wei was not so strong. Langtian City has already had a problem once, and if this Green City has another problem. Then there really can't be saved.

Huang Jinfeng was silent for a while, and then spoke: "Let me talk about financial issues." The disaster in Langtian City came too suddenly, and most of our belongings were not transferred in a hurry, and now we are basically supported by business in other regions, and our lives are uneventful. ”

Life was uneventful. That is, it is not very easy. Although there are no hundreds of thousands of troops to raise now, Harrison's 20,000 horses are eating with them. If the people who eat together are all family members. So Hu Wei's family now has more than 20,000 mouths to eat, and it is already a great thing to keep them from starving, and it is basically impossible to come up with another money.

Ouyang Hanbing and Huang Jinfeng have already spoken, although they are not very clear, but the meaning has been expressed, they do not agree with Hu Wei's artificial river plan, plus red leaves, that is, four women who have opened their mouths, only one of them agrees, and three oppose.

Since Hu Wei established his own power, nothing like this has ever happened. Hongye, Ouyang Hanbing and Huang Jinfeng have always fully supported Hu Wei, but now they are not on Hu Wei's side.

Although they are all Hu Wei's wives, but love is busy with the reason of the wood, but it is not, and now there are enough difficulties in front of them, they really don't want Hu Wei to have any more trouble.

Opposition does not mean that they do not love Hu Wei, it is precisely because they think more about Hu Wei that this is the first time they oppose Hu Wei's plan.

The atmosphere of the meeting was very bad, and after Huang Jinfeng spoke, no one spoke again. Hu Wei sat there quietly, not sure if he was angry, but he was in a heavy mood.

"I think the plan for an artificial river is feasible. ”

Another voice rang out, and it was very clear in this quiet space. It was Chu Zhu's voice, and finally someone supported Hu Wei's plan head-on.

Everyone, including Hu Wei, turned their eyes to Chu Zhu, and none of them spoke, waiting for Chu Zhu's words.

Chu Zhu paused slightly. He continued: "Greentown is a commercial city. What business needs most is communication. As we all know, the cost of the waterway is much less than that of the land route, and the diversion of the Kyushu River has caused Greentown to lose the waterway, so that the commercial circulation is almost completely terminated. ”

"To be honest, I've never heard of the idea of an artificial river before, and I don't know how much manpower and material resources it would take to build an artificial river. But one thing, I'm sure, if we don't build an artificial river, Greentown will be finished!"

Momiji frowned and said, "Sixth sister." Even if there is no waterway, the road leading to the four directions of Greentown extends in all directions, and as long as it is used reasonably, it can still solve the traffic problem. As far as I know. Not every town in the Heavenly Wind Continent has direct access to waterways, and their economy has not collapsed. ”

Chu Zhu nodded and said, "The eldest sister is right, using land routes can also develop the economy. I would not agree with the plan for an artificial river if it were only economic, but now it's not just an economic issue. I have a copy of the information in my hand, and I was going to sort it out in more detail and then show it to you, but now that I've said this, I'll just show you first. Jebel, you can help me, go to the bookshelf on the left side of the study and get the red box. ”...,

Jebel answered. Soon came back with a box, and under Chu Zhu's instructions, he sent the information inside to everyone. Chu Zhu waited for everyone to get the information, and then continued: "This is an investigation I did privately, and the direction of the investigation is mainly the water problem in Greentown. ”

"Greentown has a population of about 1 million, and most of the water used to come from the Kyushu River, but after the diversion of the Kyushu River, there is a big shortage of water in Greentown. At present, the common people can only use a few mountain springs and rivers and wells to get water. ”

"The water supply of the small river is acceptable, but it is very difficult to take and store water, and now most of the people in Greentown rely on wells for water. I have an update here. Greentown has added 2,757 wellheads this year, about 2,000 of which can produce water and 1,551 that can be eaten......"

Chu Zhu is definitely doing this investigation very carefully, and all kinds of figures almost don't need to look at the information in his hand, and he can say it casually.

Yaxin didn't quite understand what Chu Zhu meant. I didn't have time to look at the information in my hand in a hurry, and couldn't help asking, "Doesn't that sound good?" Any questions?"

Ximen Yufeng was born in the military, and the speed of reading the information was very fast, she had already seen the back part, and said in a deep voice: "There are 8,790 old wells, and in the fourth, fifth, and sixth months, it is only a hundred days, and there are 1,600 wells without water, and there are 16 wells that can no longer provide water every day, and this rate is still increasing...... It is estimated that within a year, the whole Greentown will be able to produce 1,000 wells!"

Greentown has a population of one million, the whole city has a thousand wells, on average there is one well for every thousand, such a number sounds acceptable, but think about it, if a thousand people average five households, that is two hundred, even if there are ten people in a household, there are one hundred, a hundred families only one well, not to mention whether the well can produce so much water, even if it can be supplied, then with the current speed of water intake, it will not be able to use so much water, and at that time, in order to grab water, each well will become a small battlefield.

Hearing this, everyone's faces became ugly. Water is the source of life, and without water all life would not exist. If, after a year, as the report says, Greentown will not only be finished, but almost destroyed.

"Chu Zhu, is what you said true?" Hu Wei's eyes were extremely painful, such a thing should not have happened, and such a problem would have occurred entirely because of him.

If it weren't for the fact that Hu Wei did things without considering the consequences and blindly made some high-tech, he would not have diverted the Kyushu River, and there would not have been a terrible situation of water shortage in a water town like Greentown.

Chu Zhu shook his head and said, "If I can, I don't want it to be true." ”

Chu Zhu didn't think about investigating the problem of water resources at first, and he did so because of Hu Wei's influence. In those days, Hu Wei said that the two biggest problems of the common people were food and clothing, Chu Zhu didn't feel anything wrong at first after listening to it, and then she suddenly remembered what would happen if there was no water when she was making tea.

Water is the most important thing for a qiē's life, but because it doesn't need to be exchanged for money, it is basically in good supply. Therefore, it is not as valued as food and the necessities of life. In Hu Wei's survey of the lives of the people in Greentown, this aspect was almost completely ignored.

Chu Zhu thought about this aspect and decided to take a good look. She didn't tell Hu Wei beforehand, because once she found out that there was a problem with the water, it must have been caused by Hu Wei's mistake. Before it was confirmed, Chu Zhu didn't want to add any more annoyance to Hu Wei, and if she couldn't find out the problem in the end, she wouldn't even tell Hu Wei what she had done.

But the reality is often cruel, but in just a few days, the summary of the information that Chu Zhu returned is shocking. It's almost to the point of being terrible. ...,

Hu Wei was silent, he knew how harsh he was wrong this time. The diversion of the Kyushu River, not only the area where Greentown was affected, but the situation in Greentown must not be the most severe. So what will be the stricter zhòng, how scary it is!

Chen Dali and Harrison glanced at each other, Harrison nodded, coughed dryly, and said, "Now it seems that the situation in Greentown is not just a problem of transportation. If the waterway is impassable, you can change the route to land, but it is absolutely unacceptable to have no water to drink. The plan for an artificial river has difficulties to be carried out, and it is imperative that it can be carried out without difficulties!"

"Still unhappy?" by the pool in the back garden, Chu Zhu sat down beside Hu Wei. Between saying the investigation report, Chu Zhu knew Hu Wei's reaction. But she couldn't help but say. Many things are known to have remedies, and if it is too late, nothing can be done.

"Thinking about something. Hu Wei had a smell of alcohol on his body, and he couldn't tell if he was unhappy in his voice. Sitting here for hours, he has calmed down a lot.

Chu Zhu asked, "What are you thinking?" She knew that Hu Wei needed a pair of ears now. Hu Wei drank a lot of wine at dinner, and no one tried to persuade him. Chu Zhu deliberately let Hu Wu stay for a while before coming over.

Hu Wei said: "Let me tell you a story." In another space there is a country, well, and we have here about the same. The sky there is blue, the water is green, people are sentient, and the grandmother can be helped when she falls......"

Hu Wei muttered to himself. said something that Chu Zhu didn't understand very well. Chu Zhu sat there with a smile, listening very carefully, even if she couldn't understand it.

“...... One day, when people woke up, they suddenly found that the water was no longer green. The sky is no longer blue, and no one dares to help the grandmother when she falls. The whole world has changed. ”

Chu Zhu asked, "Does the emperor there care?"

Hu Wei said: "Tube, of course." They told the common people that the sky is more beautiful when it turns gray, and there is no need to be afraid of dazzling eyes if you can't see the stars at night, and the water stinks but there will be no problem with drinking, and the grandmother is not falling, but because she is tired and wants to sleep, she will ......"

Hu Wei said as he spoke, leaning on Chu Zhu's body and falling asleep. Chu Zhu kept recalling Hu Wei's words, and gradually understood what Hu Wei meant.

"You want to sue me, if you are wrong, you are wrong, and you have to face it head-on, instead of making excuses to escape, right?"

Chu Zhu looked at Hu Wei, who seemed to be sleeping like a child, and sighed secretly in his heart. In fact, she has another understanding of Hu Wei's story, that is, the truth.

What the common people need is not some fairytale excuse, what they need is the truth. Why did it start, why did it happen, who should be responsible, how should it be solved, and whether similar problems would arise in the future.

Hu Wei knew that Greentown's lack of water was his fault, and he also knew what the consequences would be if it continued like this. But the common people still don't know, do they have the right to know?

"Get a good night's sleep, and you'll be fine. ”

Chu Zhu knew that Hu Wei was thinking too much, he was tired, he needed to rest well now, and he still needed to face a lot in the days to come.

Today was a nice day with plenty of sun. When Hu Wei opened his eyes, he couldn't help but be a little stunned to find that he was sleeping by the pool, and he couldn't remember how he fell asleep.

"Awake?" When Chu Zhu turned around, he just saw Hu Wei open his eyes and send a smiling face.

Hu Wei shook his head, sobered himself up, came to Chu Zhu's side and sat down, and asked, "What are you doing?"

"Fishing. Chu Zhu said with a smile.

"Oh. Hu Wei got some water with his hands, washed his face, and felt a little sober. Reminiscing about last night. The brain is a little messy, and a lot of things are crowded together, and I can't tell the difference clearly for a while. ...,

"What did I do last night?" asked Chu Zhu. He only remembered that he drank some wine last night, and then sat by the water, and then Chu Zhu came, and then he really didn't remember what happened next.

Chu Zhu smiled: "You told me a story last night." She decided to give Hu Wei some smiles from today onwards. Because Hu Wei needs more support, as his wife, this is how it should be.

Before Hu Wei woke up, they had all been here. Seeing that Hu Wei slept soundly, he didn't make the most noise. A family will always be a family, no matter what Hu Wei does wrong, even if everyone in the world is against him, his family still cares about him so much.

"Tell a story?" Hu Wei was a little stupid, he didn't remember what story he had told Chu Zhu.

Chu Zhu saw that Hu Wei was almost sober, put away the fishing rod and said, "It seems that there will be no fish today, let's go have breakfast, eldest sister, I'm afraid they are already waiting." ”

"Well, okay. Hu Wei responded, and when he saw the pond in front of him, he remembered the report of the lack of water in Greentown. After a night's rest, he was already able to accept this fact.

Things have already happened if they don't happen, self-blame has no effect, now what he needs is to face it and solve the problem.

"Young marshal. Chen Dali saw Hu Wei coming in and quickly got up and saluted. Harrison had returned to the barracks, and he was temporarily living in the palace because he had a family. He usually doesn't dine with Hu Wei's family, and today he was worried that Hu Wei had something to do with him, so he came over early in the morning.

"Sit, sit, don't be so polite. Hu Wei smiled and sat down beside Chen Dali, chatting casually.

When Hongye came in, he saw Hu Wei and Chen Dali chatting there, and he was secretly relieved. Looking at Hu Wei's situation, it should have recovered. Due to the severe consequences of the water shortage, the construction of artificial rivers no longer needs to be discussed, but must be carried out.

It's not just Greentown, but last night Red Leaves met Harrison overnight and asked him to send someone to check the surrounding water situation as soon as he returned to the camp, and she wanted to know where there were signs of water shortage besides Greentown.

The current conditions are limited, and the autumn leaves can only check the surrounding area first. When she has more resources in her hand, she will secretly investigate the situation of all the towns in the entire Tianfeng Continent.

Ouyang Hanbing and the others also arrived one after another, and everyone who came without exception secretly glanced at Hu Wei, and saw that Hu Wei had no problem, so they were relieved.

In fact, how could Hu Wei fully recover so quickly, he just hid what was in his heart. He'll never forget about it. The mistakes made and the sins created will be repaid sooner or later.
