"What are you talking about there?" Li Hongxiang asked anxiously.

Zhang Tiezhu shook his head, "Li Zheng has no choice."

Su Jinse thought for a while and said, "Dad, the river at the entrance of the village is too narrow. Do we have to find ways to widen it, clear the river channel, quickly drain the flood, and then build a dam and a protective shore?"

Now she finally understood that something was wrong in her heart before. Where did the uneasiness come from? It was because the flood was coming, so she felt uneasy.

Is this intuition?

Hearing these words, Zhang Tiezhu was shocked, and Li Hongxiang also looked dull.

"Baoer, how did you think of these methods?" Zhang Tiezhu said in surprise.

Su Jinse's eyes flashed, and he adjusted his thoughts, and then he slowly spoke: "When I went to the county with my father before, I accidentally heard two scholars arguing about the management of waterlogging, so I remembered it, and didn't know whether it was effective. Dad, do you think this method is OK?"

As he said that, he blinked his eyes.

Zhang Tiezhu showed a look of surprise on his face, "This method should be OK! I'll go to Li Zheng to discuss it now!"

He did not doubt Su Jinse's words. His Baoer had a good memory and a very useful head. When he was selling things in the county, Baoer was bored and would walk around without him looking for her. He would come back by himself and would not admit his mistakes. Therefore, Zhang Tiezhu did not doubt Su Jinse's words.

Li Hongxiang also looked happy and worried, "Is this method possible?"

"Come on, do you have to go to Li Zheng to ask?" So Zhang Tiezhu went to find Li Zheng again in a straw raincoat and a straw hat.

When he arrived at Li Zheng's house, Zhang Tiezhu expressed Su Jinse's opinions, widening the river channel, repairing dams, and building protective shores. After hearing this, Zhang Damin repeatedly said good, so he organized the villagers to discuss the widening the river channel and repairing dams.

When everyone heard this, they had to work for free to expand the river channel and build the dam, which was still dangerous, and they were not very willing.

Zhang Damin looked cold, "The whole village is our own, our home! If the flood comes, everyone has no home, how can they survive? Your wife, children, young and old will be attacked by the flood, and everyone's houses will be washed away by the flood. Is this what you want to see?"

Everyone said nothing.

Zhang Damin ordered every household to contribute to a strong man to widen the river channel and build dams.

In the next few days, the rain suddenly became much lighter and the river water receded halfway. Zhang Damin took advantage of this opportunity to lead everyone to get along.

He would ask Zhang Tiezhu about some things he didn't understand, and Zhang Tiezhu would ask Su Jinse secretly.

It is best to use clay when building dams. There are many mountains and rocks here, and clay can be seen everywhere, so there is no need to worry.

However, the huge stones have to be carried down from the mountain and it takes a lot of effort.

In this way, it took more than ten days to expand the river channel. The river channel was built on this side of the village, and the river channel was too late to repair it, because the rain was coming again.

During the construction of the river, some villagers shouted in dissatisfaction, "What kind of embankment is built?" Look, hasn't the rain stopped?"

Jiang Yumei also looked dissatisfied. The rain had stopped. If I had known that I would not have spent so much money to stock up on food. It would have been a waste! It also made the food moldy!

However, Zhang Damin felt that after the dam was repaired, no matter whether there was rain or not, he would finally be more at ease.
