Chapter 988 With such a big hand, where does the money come from
Xiao Chenrui was a little confused: "Brother-in-law, what do you mean?"
Jing Rui nodded at him: "It's just what you think."
Xiao Chenrui quickly said, "Brother-in-law, but I don't know anything about water conservancy and river bank management. This is no joke."
After hearing this, Yun Yi got up and walked to the study. When he came back, he had a thick stack of documents in his hand, including information on water conservancy management, a drawing of the current direction of the Weihe River, some opinions on the management of the Weihe River, and others. material.
Xiao Chenrui took the things that her sister handed over, looked down, and was deeply fascinated by this look.
Jing Rui and Yun Yi did not disturb him, but drank tea there quietly.
After a while, Xiao Chenrui raised his head excitedly: "Brother-in-law, do you really want to send me to manage the Weihe River?"
Jing Rui nodded lightly and said: "The following hand-drawn drawings are the top priority in the management of the Wei River. After sending people to conduct field surveys, they were calculated by people who understand water conservancy construction, and the trend map of the Wei River was recently determined. ."
Xiao Chenrui quickly turned to the end. After reading it carefully, he looked at the hand-drawn drawing in front of him: "Brother-in-law, do you want to change the course of the Weihe River?"
Jing Rui glanced at Yun Yi and said, "Yes, this seems to be a waste of money and labor, but it will benefit the people along the way. It can make the people on both sides of Qingcheng and Pingzhou less affected by the floods of the Wei River, and it can also alleviate the water shortage in Luning City in the north. question.
In this way, the amount of work is indeed not small, and it cannot be completed in a year or a half, but if this is accomplished, it will be a good thing for the present, for the future, and for the country and the people. "
Xiao Chenrui stared at the hand-drawn drawing for a long time: "Brother-in-law, from this perspective, you can start work at the same time, and you can get through at the end, right?"
Yun Yi saw that his elder brother Xiao Chenrui was indeed smart, and was relieved, so he answered Jing Rui's question: "Yes, it can be done at the same time. In this way, the original Weihe River can be divided into two parts, which can be basically Solve the flood in the Wei River."
Jing Rui smiled and echoed: "Although the money allocated to King Yu before was not used for the management of the Weihe River, the river embankments built by him were indeed thoughtful, so those projects do not need to be reworked."
Xiao Chenrui nodded: "Brother-in-law, can I take these materials back and study them carefully?"
Jing Rui nodded: "Naturally."
Xiao Chenrui thought again: "Brother-in-law, when will the people who manage the Weihe River leave Beijing?"
He knew what his brother-in-law asked him to go for.
With these materials, I will conduct a few field trips myself to find out the terrain of the river after the diversion. I believe that I will not betray the trust and trust of my brother-in-law. Home also has a reason.
Immediately, my heart felt surging and full of energy: "Thank you brother-in-law."
Jing Rui said with a serious face: "Although everything has been planned, the actual implementation may not be smooth, and as I said before, it can be completed in a year and a half."
Xiao Chenrui has followed her brother-in-law a lot in Northern Xinjiang before. Naturally, she doesn't want to stay in the Hanlin Academy all the time. She also wants to make a name for herself: "Chen Rui will do his best to get things done."
Jing Rui patted him on the shoulder: "The date of departure is set in half a month. After all, the purpose of the imperial court this time is to completely eliminate the flooding of the Wei River, so there are people who understand water conservancy and craftsmen who understand engineering and construction."
Xiao Chenrui had heard from those officials that the treasury was empty. Where did the money come from with such a large hand?
