Ming Dynasty: Cured The Emperor's Grandson At The Beginning, And Relied On Science And Engineer

Chapter 651 The White Marble Carving Is Simple And Majestic!

However, when Su Ran came here, she was stopped.

The guard said: "Master Su, what your Majesty has summoned is a minister of rank five or above. I hope you won't blame Xiao Xiao for the obstruction!"

Su Ran said: "I am at the top of the list. I have the honor to participate in His Majesty's summons, so I should enter."

The guard smiled when he heard this and said~:

"Okay, then sir - please come with me!"

In just a moment, Su Ran was taken to the most magnificent hall in the palace.

Entering this hall, the first thing that catches the eye is the dragon chair.

This is carved from white marble, and the entire hall is golden yellow.

It conveys a rich, noble, simple and majestic momentum!

In the center of the main hall, there is a giant dragon table.

At this time, there were dozens of people standing behind Long An, all of whom were wearing court uniforms.

Either a brocade robe or a black python robe, they were obviously important officials of the Ming Dynasty.

"I pay my respects to Your Majesty! Long live my emperor! Long live my emperor!"

All the ministers kowtowed together.

Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at the civil and military officials kneeling on the ground and said:

"Let's all get flat!"

Everyone straightened up, Zhu Yuanzhang turned his attention to Su Ran and said with a smile:

"My dear, I asked you to supervise the road construction, have you done it well?"

Su Ran hurriedly said respectfully:

"I have already arranged for people to build the dam!"

"Yes!" Zhu Yuanzhang nodded slightly and said:

"I remember that your family is of average means. Building the dam this time will cost tens of millions of taels. I have ordered the Ministry of Industry to allocate 5 million taels to you. Please keep it!"

"Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty!"

Su Ran quickly kowtowed.

Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand and said: "Okay, the main discussion in the court today is the canal."

“This matter is related to the national economy and people’s livelihood, and I hope you all can come up with good strategies to solve this problem for the country.

"I am willing to propose a complete water control plan!"

"I do too!"

"I have a plan too!"

Many courtiers rushed to express their good flood control strategies and compete for glory.

Su Ran listened silently, without interrupting, but listened carefully.

However, it sounded to him that the so-called flood control strategies of these courtiers were just words on paper.

Not worth mentioning at all.

Sure enough, this discussion lasted for half an hour.

In the end, two plans were reluctantly decided upon.

One is to dredge the canal to divert water and improve the siltation condition of the canal.

One is to introduce large rivers to improve water quality so that the canal can flow smoothly.

Adding opportunities for farmland irrigation is also beneficial to agricultural development.

Both options are measures that treat the symptoms rather than the root cause.

……………………Please give me flowers……[013404319 Feilu 143111421]

Not only does it treat the symptoms, but it also treats poorly cured diseases!

Because the canal is silted up very close to the countryside.

If silt is allowed to accumulate, it will easily breed plague.

People may even die. In that case, the losses will be great.

However, if it is really introduced into the river, it will definitely cause some unnecessary trouble.

For example, if the river is impassable, how should the farmland in nearby villages be irrigated?

You can't rely on livestock to pull carts to haul grain, right?

If you want to obtain a sufficient supply of crops, you can only obtain them from other ways.

For example, digging deep trenches, widening roads, etc.

In short, this is a long-term process and cannot be completed in a short time.

Moreover, Su Ran also noticed that there is a commonality among other plans!

You cannot affect the interests of the people, otherwise you will have to bear responsibility.

Su Ran curled her lips secretly.

However, he did not expose it because these ministers also thought about the interests of the country. "

"If the interests of the people are destroyed because of their plan, Su Ran feels that her conscience will be uneasy.

Therefore, he chose to be silent and watch the show quietly.

Finally, Zhu Yuanzhang knocked on the dragon table and said: "Since you all have your own water control plan, then write down your water control plan and submit it to the Minister of Industry for review!"
