What?
Make a fortune!
Li Shimin almost spat out a mouthful of blood.
How could he be in the mood to make money now?
He only wanted to solve the drought in Longyou Dao as soon as possible and deal with the locusts. How could he be in the mood to make a fortune?
But …
At this moment, Zhang Feng patted Li Shimin's shoulder as if he could see Li Shimin's anxiety.
He said calmly, "Forget it, I won't tease you anymore. Let me ask you, what are they going to do first when Longyou Dao is short of water?"
"Open a canal to draw water! Do you even need to ask? "
"From where?"
"Now, only Mount Qilian has water. Naturally, they'll draw water from Mount Qilian!"
"Wrong!"
"Of course, it's best to draw water now. But you have to know that if you draw water like this, you won't be able to draw water to the place for at least a year!"
"Why?"
Li Shimin was a little confused.
Opening a canal to draw water now was the best way. If that didn't work, was he going to watch the drought in Longyou Dao spread like this?
Zhang Feng sighed, "To think that you're still a businessman. Don't you know that rain after a long drought is a bad thing?"
"Now that the entire Longyou Dao is short of water, if you dig a canal now, your water won't be enough for the soil to absorb!"
Li Shimin was shocked. ,
That's right!
He had forgotten about that!
At this time of drought, how could that little bit of water be enough?
Zhang Feng seemed to have thought of something.
Asked.
"By the way, Lao Li, where are your businesses concentrated?"
"They're mainly concentrated in Shazhou, Ganzhou, and other places in Longyou Dao. You know that place is the western gate of the Tang Dynasty, so many businessmen choose to build their industrial chain there!"
Understood!
This guy had concentrated all his businesses in one place!
No wonder he was so flustered!
Anyone would be flustered if this happened to him!
"Old Li, I'm seriously doubting how you managed to make your business so big! Don't you understand the principle of wealth not being concentrated? "
"I …"
"Forget it."
Zhang Feng shook his head upon hearing this.
"I know that your mind is filled with thoughts about the business, so I won't beat around the bush."
"I advise you to stop talking about the way to open a canal!"
"If you want to leave your name in history and attract the attention and favor of the current emperor, you can do so!"
"But if you want to solve this drought, you'd better not do that!"
"Why, why?"
Li Shimin was dumbfounded.
At this moment, he was getting more and more confused.
Could it be that other than opening enough canals, there were other ways to get out of this crisis in a short period of time?
"Could it be that you're talking about using manpower to carry water?"
Li Shimin suddenly thought of a problem.
"Wrong!"
Zhang Feng was speechless.
"Go and make some waterwheels!"
"Do you know what a waterwheel is?"
"That thing, as long as you have a lot of livestock, it can at least solve the problem of water in the shortest amount of time and with the least amount of loss. As for watering the crops, that's the next step. You have to solve the problem of drawing water for the people and livestock first, then use the waste water to water the farmland. Isn't that perfect?"
"This … isn't very good, is it?"
Although Li Shimin had never farmed before, how much water was left after the people and livestock used?
How was he going to water them?
How was he going to solve this crisis?
Wasn't that just fooling around?
"Just treat your Zhuang Family as humans and only water the seedlings. Is that not enough? Who asked you to water large tracts? Do you think you're the Dragon King? "
Zhang Feng was speechless.
"The first step is to solve the problem of drinking water for the people and livestock. Then, you can calculate how many carts of water per mu of land to save the farmers who can't withstand the drought. With such precise calculations, how could you make a mistake?"
"Moreover, the water used by the people can be deposited and fed to the livestock. We can save the excess water and recycle it. Isn't that good?"
"Isn't that saving effort?"
"Isn't it good?"
"The second step is to save the farmers who can withstand the drought if we have excess water. In this way, won't the problem be completely solved?"
"This …"
Li Shimin was shocked.
But he also understood.
If what Zhang Feng said was true …
Then …
Combining all the horses and human resources in the Tang Dynasty, the drought could be solved in less than a month!
This was really a way to kill two birds with one stone!
But the problem was …
"Brother Little Zhang, your method is good, but where did you get such a big bucket?"
"Not only that, even if the bucket can really hold so much water, it will still take time! If this goes on, then … can the people of Longyou Road and the Zhuang Family wait? "
"Hai!"
"Come, come, come! I'll give you another trick! "
It was really hard to explain.
Zhang Feng did not intend to say anything more. Instead, he slapped his thigh, took the brush, ink, paper, and inkstone from the counter, and then wrote and drew on the paper for a moment.
The tip of Zhang Feng's brush danced.
A moment later, something that looked like a drum and a bucket appeared on the paper.
To put it bluntly, Zhang Feng was just building a wooden water tank based on the model of a modern water storage car.
"Hey! You've seen this thing in the wooden bucket in your house, right? This thing is the improved version of that wooden bucket. You just need to follow the things on this blueprint, and I guarantee that you can solve the drought within half a month! " “
"What a pity!"
Li Shimin was shocked.
But when he heard Zhang Feng say that it was a pity, he could not help but feel his heart clench. ..
"What's a pity?"
"It's a pity that Li Shimin doesn't know!"
"If the current emperor knew about this method, and if he sent 100,000 soldiers to do it, I guarantee that in less than ten days, the people of Longyou Road would be able to drink water!"
Li Shimin's mouth twitched.
But this was not the time to chat with Zhang Feng.
He pulled out a stack of banknotes from his pocket.
"Brother Zhang, thank you! Lao Li, I won't say anything more. I'll go back first! Let's talk another time! "
Zhang Feng looked at the banknotes in his hand and his eyelids twitched.
"Thank you, Lao Li!"
"Remember, the next time you come, I'll show you a package!"
"…"
