A Fujian native is not afraid of seasickness, but he carries cinnamon for seasickness with him?

Considering that cinnamon is produced in Lingnan.

And the price has always been quite high...

So, he is not a scholar who goes to Beijing to take the exam!

But an official who entered Beijing!?

Only when officials in prefectures and counties need to travel frequently among civil officials in various places will they have many characteristics.

When Li Erhu thought of this, he felt relieved.

However, he still didn't take it seriously.

After all, since the Ren Temple in the Song Dynasty, more and more officials from Fujian have come from this Song Dynasty.

His boss is a Fujian native!

...

Yang Ji sat in the cabin, holding the books in his hand, looking at the words on it, and listening to the thanks from the merchants outside the cabin.

"Li Erhu?"

He chuckled in his heart: "I didn't expect that the kind relationship I made was still a businessman who knew how to repay..."

"Not bad! Not bad!"

"This may be a good start!"

In late April, he received an edict from the emperor to restore him to the capital and water supervision.

According to the truth, he should have already reported to the Ministry of Personnel, completed the process of seeing you, and sat upright in the official office of Dushuiguan.

However, after receiving the edict, he did not enter the capital day and night like others.

He did not choose the fastest and most convenient route to Beijing: from Huangzhou to Guangzhou, arrive in Caizhou, and when he arrives in Caizhou, he can pass the Cai River-Huimin River and go straight to Bianjing.

The whole journey is up to ten days!

But he didn't!

Instead, I chose to go around a lot!

Departing from Huangzhou, heading south along the Yangtze River, and heading straight to Jiangning.

It took him ten days to go on this journey alone!

In Jiangning, he met many former friends and colleagues.

Of course, I also paid homage to Enxiang Wang Anshi and visited Jiangning Academy where school has begun.

By the way, he also took out thousands of guan and bought dozens of hectares of fertile land in Jiangning Prefecture and donated it to Jiangning Academy as a school land to help the academy teachers and students.

After doing these things, he set off in early May and entered Beijing from Jiangning.

The reason why I changed the boat here in Xiangyi was because he got off the boat at Yingtian Mansion and went to meet a friend.

After seeing his friend, he entered Kaifeng Prefecture by land and then came to Liyi to take a boat.

From Liyi to Bianjing, the waterway is only 120 miles long.

Basically, I will almost be able to return to Bianjing City tomorrow morning.

Yang Ji was very clear about this.

Because during the Xining period, he and the late Dushui Supervisor Hou Shuxian, in order to turn the tidal flats and saline-alkali land along the Bian River into cultivated land, he traveled all over Kaifeng Prefecture and searched every river in Kaifeng Prefecture.

They asked old farmers everywhere and observed the farmers who were farming on the tidal flats everywhere.

Looking for their common ground, and exploring why those people can turn saline-alkali land into fertile land?

Finally, they found the answer!

It's water!

The Yellow River water has too much sand content!

In the past, the flood caused by the multiple dam breaks of the Yellow River has proved a fact that wherever the Yellow River soaks, the mud and sand left behind will turn the original fertile fields into saline-alkali land without grains.

The water source of the Bian River mainly comes from the Yellow River.

Therefore, the reason why the mudflats on both sides of the Bian River and the land on both sides of the river embankment has become saline-alkali land and cannot be cultivated.

It is because the mud and sand in the Bian River turn the land into saline-alkali land.

After finding the problem, we naturally find a solution!

Wash the fields!

Use clean water to wash the fields and wash away the mud and sand of the Yellow River in the land!

Just wash away the silt that causes the land to be salinized!

Then, the reclaimed land can be cultivated.

So the question arises?

Where can I find such a river that is both clean and sufficient in flow, which can at least meet the needs of washing fields along both banks of the Bian River, and at the same time, the project volume is within an acceptable range?

Another difficult search.

Finally, they found Fan Shanshui located in the upper reaches of the Yellow River.

The river is almost perfectly satisfied with all their needs.

So, work started immediately!

From the third year of Xining to the sixth year of Xining, he and Shuxian were in the Dushui Prison. After three years of hard work, they finally attracted the water from Fanshan River, and tens of thousands of hectares of saline-alkali land along the Bian River became fertile land.

The country can harvest millions of stones of food from these lands every year.

Recalling the past and years of fighting with Uncle Hou on this Bian River.

Yang Ji opened the windows of the cabin and looked at the fields on both sides of the Bian River.

It was summer, and the rice in the fields on both sides of the Bian River had begun to grow. Pickles of green rice hung in the fields. Looking from afar, it seemed that the fragrance of rice was coming.

Seeing this, Yang Ji couldn't help but sigh, "Mr. Jingren..."

"Did you see it?"

"The fields you washed away in the past are now a harvest scene with the croaking of rice and frogs!"

However, this man has passed away.

Uncle Hou will never see such a beautiful scenery.

Thinking of this, Yang Ji remembered the content of the edict that the emperor had reinstated him.

"The river flows westward and overflows thousands of miles! The people of Heshuo live with reeds and live with fish and turtles! I sighed and thought of people who are clear about water affairs, and plan for them. Yang Ji, an official, was old in the government of the river, and had more talent and strength. He was once a minister of the Emperor's Water Capital, and knew that his gains and losses had been long! The position of a water official is actually suitable for him. Yang Yan and Wang Yanshi's achievements are expected. I can do it!"

Recalling the words in the imperial edict, Yang Ji lowered his head and moved him, and called him.

He knew that he would return to the court this time and serve as the Dushui Supervisor again.

He has great responsibilities, great pressure, and great tasks!

The emperor sent an envoy to Huangzhou to issue an imperial edict, and once brought him the emperor's oral edict.

Speaking of his mission after returning to the court.

The first is to guide the Luoluo-Tun Bian project, which needs to be maintained and ensure that the Bian River is unhindered.

Then, there is Erguhe in Hebei.

In the east flow channel, he needed to keep dredging on the basis of Song Yongchen and not to block the land.

As for the main path...

He needs to go to the investigation himself and come up with a plan.

At the same time, the saline-alkali land that appeared in the past due to the flooding of the Yellow River also needed him to work with Hebei's Transportation Department and Changping Department to come up with solutions to solve the problem.

These things combined will not be successful without spending tens of millions of dollars.

Although, all of this money will definitely not be taken out in a year.

It will be distributed to the national plan for the next ten or twenty years.

But this is also a million-dollar expense per year!

Can the court squeeze out so much money?

Even if they can squeeze out, will the magistrates of the capital agree?

The priests are willing to agree, are the emperor or the two palaces willing?

These difficulties are all what he has to face.

In addition, this time when Yang Ji returned to Beijing, he knew that the crows in the Censorate would be staring at him day and night.

After all, during the Yuanfeng period, he, Cui Taifu, Wang Xiaoxian and others who had been dismissed from office, were called the Four Evils.
To be continued...
