    ?

    Zhou Heng explained for Zhao Si.

    "Even so, you can't bring the prince here. It's already dark at night. What if the prince encounters any danger?"

    An Xu still found an excuse to scold Zhao Si.

    "Master An, there is no need to be angry."

    Zhou Heng smiled and acted as a peacemaker in the middle.

    "Your Highness, we can return to Xianning City!" An Xu said, Zhou Heng is the biggest thing now.

    "No, I still have to go to Macheng, and I won't go back to Xianning City."

    Zhou Heng interrupted An Xu.

    "Going to Macheng?"

    An Xu didn't expect Zhou Heng to go to Macheng.

    "Well, the 100,000 troops of the Southern Tang Dynasty have arrived in Macheng of Zhou, where I am going to defend against the troops of the Southern Tang Dynasty." Zhou Heng explained his intentions to An Xu.

    "His Royal Highness Gao Yi. Concerned about the country and the people, An Xu admires him."

    An Xu said with admiration.

    "Master An, are you digging a canal?" Zhou Heng looked at the canal in front of everyone and asked with a smile.

    An Xu also glanced at the canal in front of him, and smiled a little embarrassedly, "Yes, it's good for the officer to think that he can save some crops, so that everyone won't be hungry in the future."

    An Xu replied.

    Zhou Heng heard helplessness from An Xu's tone, and there was really no other good way.

    "It's a good idea. It's really a good idea to use canals to bring the river up." Zhou Heng gave An Xu a thumbs up, and Zhou Heng approved of An Xu's approach.

    "Thank you for your praise, Your Majesty, I'm just doing my best."

    An Xu felt a little embarrassed after hearing Zhou Heng's words. What he is doing now is to do his best and obey the destiny.

    "Since you are in charge of digging the canal, how about I give you a note and ask you to bring the river water up?" Zhou Heng stood next to the canal and asked An Xu.

    "Your Highness, are you serious?"

    After hearing Zhou Heng's words, An Xu showed surprise eyes. If so, it would be really great.

    "Of course it is true. No manpower is needed, no bucket is needed, the water can flow up by itself, and it doesn't matter day or night, and you don't need to watch it."

    Zhou Heng answered An Xu's words very affirmatively.

    "If it's true, An Xu is here to thank His Highness for his great kindness on behalf of his fellow villagers!"

    An Xu immediately knelt down and kowtowed to Zhou Heng.

    "Thank you, Prince!"

    "Thank you, Prince!"

    Everyone followed An Xu and knelt down one after another.

    "Everyone please get up quickly! As the prince of the Great Zhou, this is what I should do." Zhou Heng asked everyone to stand up. This matter is his own responsibility, and there is no need for everyone to bow down to him.

    "Your Highness, what can you do to make the water flow up?"

    An Xu asked.

    Everyone knows that water flows to low places, how can it flow to high places.

    "This is simple. I will build a waterwheel on the edge of the river bank, and bring the river water up from the waterwheel." Zhou Heng pointed to the river bank and said to An Xu.

    Water wheel?

    An Xu still didn't understand what Zhou Heng meant.

    It is impossible for the waterwheel to bring the water up.

    "Can this work?"

    An Xu is still a little skeptical. This is not only An Xu who is suspicious, but everyone else is also suspicious, because they have never heard of Zhou Heng's approach.

    "Of course it will work. Do you have pens, inks, paper and inkstones here? I will draw them without graphics for you, and then you can find a carpenter to make them. This thing is actually a very simple thing."

    Zhou Heng shrugged and said calmly.

    "Yes, yes, yes!"

    An Xu hurriedly nodded in response. He is the county magistrate of Xianning City, so he naturally carried paper, ink, brush and inkstone on him. Zhou Heng immediately ordered Zhao Si to bring his own paper, ink, brush and inkstone.

    Zhao Si didn't dare to delay, and in less than a while, Zhao Si came to Zhou Heng and An Xu with paper, ink, brush and inkstone.

    Zhou Heng took the paper and glanced left and right.

    "Please, Your Highness!"

    An Xu immediately understood, stood in front of Zhou Heng, bowed his waist, and asked Zhou Heng to use his back as a desk and put paper on it to write.

    "My lord, let me come!"

    Seeing An Xu bending over to serve as a desk, Zhao Si immediately stepped forward to lift An Xu down.

    "unnecessary."

    An Xu waved his hand, Zhou Heng looked at An Xu like this, I feel a little good in my heart, there are indeed not many officials like An Xu, who love the people like their own children, and work hard.

    "Okay, you stand up!"

    Zhou Heng said to An Xu.

    "Your Highness, don't worry!" An Xu told Zhou Heng to rest assured that he would never affect Zhou Heng's writing

    As time passed, Zhou Heng drew the drawings one by one.

    "okay!"

    An hour later, Zhou Heng finished drawing all the drawings. The drawings must be accurate, otherwise the things made will be wasted.

    Zhou Heng felt that this hour was too fast. If he drew carefully, it would take at least half a day.

    "Are you all right?"

    Zhou Heng saw that An Xu was still bent over in front of him, and reached out to help An Xu up. Zhou Heng saw that An Xu was sweating profusely, and his face was flushed.

    "Your Majesty is fine, thank you for your concern."

    An Xu waved his hand and said a little ashamedly that he might not be able to hold on after a while.

    "It seems that adults still lack exercise." Zhou Heng patted An Xu on the shoulder lightly and said jokingly.

    "Your Highness said so."

    An Xu nodded. Zhou Heng was really right. He was busy with government affairs all day long, and he really lacked exercise. It was just digging water canals. When he was studying, he could work alone for a day without getting tired, but not now.  up.

    After working for a while, I will be out of breath.

    "This is the drawing, you can find a carpenter, they will make it according to the drawing, and then put it in the water." Zhou Heng handed the drawing to An Xu.

    "Thank you Your Highness!"

    An Xu looked at the drawings and was very grateful.

    "By the way, if you succeed here, promote it to me immediately, I believe you know how to do it yourself." Zhou Heng told An Xu.

    "clear."

    An Xu nodded excitedly, and then glanced at the drawings, "We have a carpenter here, can we make it overnight?" Without further ado, An Xu immediately ordered someone to make the waterwheel overnight.

    "have!"

    The village chief said something to An Xu.

    "Your Highness, my lord, you don't know something. The carpenters in our village are famous, so don't worry!"  Craft meals.

    "That's good."

    Zhou Heng also smiled, he didn't expect it to go so smoothly.

    "Your Highness, can you show us the blueprint so that we can get acquainted with it!" The village chief asked Zhou Heng, who looked at An Xu.

    "sure!"

    An Xu immediately handed the blueprint to the village chief in front of him.

    "Wonderful, wonderful! This is the waterwheel His Highness said? It's really amazing." The village chief looked at the blueprint and couldn't help praising it. The waterwheel on Zhou Heng's blueprint is really amazing.

    Never seen a waterwheel like this before.

    "It uses the power of water to rotate, and it will scoop up the river water at the same time" Zhou Heng was worried that the people in the village would not understand the drawings, so he explained it deliberately.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
