A few days later, it rained continuously.
Yin stood at the window and stared outside.
He didn't even listen for a moment in the past two days.
Elu was on the third floor of the stone pavilion.
"Four-four, it has been raining for several days, the water outside has risen a lot, and there are a lot of homeless people outside the mansion."
After hearing what Su Lan said, Qing Yan became entangled again.
She had prepared a lot of reserves in advance.
As the rainy season approached, the price of these stored grains increased.
Su Lan went out several times and visited the people nearby.
"Refugees" Yin didn't hear Elu say refugees.
Those wandering around at the door must be the common people here.
Elu appeared at the door, and Qingyan looked at him and got wet.
"Master, there are many villagers from outside.
They should be seeking refuge with their relatives."
After Erlu respectfully replied, Yin's face darkened instantly.
There are not many people living in this small village.
Now, all the houses in the village are full.
"Go down."
Yin's book on preventing river troubles, "My dear, look here."
He took a lot of manuscripts from the space, which recorded many precautions for building embankments.
Yin also read all the rough design drawings from the Ministry of Works.
People from the Ministry of Housing used them to calculate the cost.
The cost is extremely high.
After the words fell, the heavy rain outside finally stopped.
Yin stood up and walked around twice, looking at Qing Yan.
"Xiao Guai, go change into men's clothes and let's go take a look at the embankment."
Yin didn't plan to leave Xiao Guai in the mansion for fear that someone would storm the mansion and Xiao Guai's reputation would be hindered.
After a cup of tea, Qing Yan put on the regular clothes that Yin had worn when he was young, followed him, and walked out with a serious expression.
Both of them had jade pendants representing the royal family tied around their waists, and they looked like two princes.
On tour. look "Fourth brother, isn't the embankment made according to the design drawings of the Ministry of Industry?"
Qingyan tilted her head.
Before coming out, Yin informed her in advance that she had to hand over the fourth brother, so she couldn't call her by the wrong name.
Yin gave her an appreciative look.
Su Peisheng and Su Lan both changed into slave clothes, followed by many guards.
"Master, this section is often flooded."
Erlu had already found out some places where floods often occurred.
Frowning, Yin approached the embankment and slowly walked down the steps.
He felt a little awkward walking on some loose stone steps.
"Four-four, the stone steps can move."
Qing Yan was instantly curious as to why these stone steps could move.
Yin nodded and held the little boy with his big hand, fearing that the little boy would be naughty and get sucked into the rising water.
On the opposite side, a nearby man was fetching water in a bucket and preparing to wash clothes on the edge of the embankment.
When he was going up the stone steps, he accidentally slipped and the whole bucket of water was overturned.
"Forty-four, the stone steps are not slippery."
Qing Yan remembered that most of the big stones in the Forbidden City were slippery.

Even Qing history recorded that stone steps for building dams everywhere also used this kind of stone steps.
"Not anti-slip," Yin said directly.
Anti-slip stones will be very expensive, and the cost will be extremely high, which will waste a lot of cost.
After many layers of exploitation, the county magistrate will probably not get a lot of silver in his hands.
Qing Yan frowned and looked at the opposite side.
In order to save water at home, people usually come to the dike to wash clothes, and they often slip and fall.
"Would you be sucked into the water?"
"Master, this slave understands that every year, many people die in the water on the edge of the dam."
Elu told Xieyin in a low voice.
He was really worried about Qing Banyan's irritation.
What Qing Yan's eyes were on fire.
These people took charity money from Yuelai Inn and Linglong Pavilion, but they didn't use it on the people.
"Su Lan, remember to ask the shopkeeper in charge of the charity to come."
Qing Yan was determined to investigate.
Take it from the people, use it for the people Yin once firmly remembered these words, and he used his own abilities to fulfill his promise to Kangxi.
Even though he suffered a lot of infamy, he still firmly implemented various policies.
"Xiao Guai, let's go look elsewhere."
Yin believed that such steps could not be just one place, as this was a highly dangerous place.
Now, the flood has not really come, otherwise, the problem will be more serious.
"good" They walked slowly along the embankment.
Many steps were wet with water.
Some people even took off their shoes and walked on the stone steps with their socks on to avoid slipping.
She felt uncomfortable looking at such a scene.
The "Master" shopkeeper was summoned just as the two of them were approaching each other.
"You built such a dam with charity money," Qing Yan scolded with a stern face.
"Master, the money distributed by the household department cannot even build a dike.
If it were not for the funds raised by shops in the county, even such a dike would not be able to be built."
Yuelai Inn and Linglong Pavilion receive donations from the capital every year.
All counties in need can have this part of the money.
Yin coughed twice in embarrassment.
Knowing this situation, the shopkeeper suddenly said it without giving the royal family face at all.
The shopkeeper lowered his head, feeling afraid of Yin, but he had to tell the truth.
In front of her, if the shopkeeper didn't tell the truth, he would probably be dragged off.
"How much benefit has the county magistrate given you?"
This place is the hardest hit area, and the donation for the cost of building such a dam is completely sufficient.
"No, the remaining donations have been used for disaster relief.
Every year, refugees come from the three nearby villages.
Many of these people are relatives of this village, and some of them are looking at the vacant houses here and want to live here.
Take root everywhere."
The shopkeeper looked at Qing Yan with a bad expression and quickly told him what he knew about the situation.
Qing Yan looked back in the direction of the mansion, and sure enough, many people in simple clothes were circling the courtyard.
"Elu, when we go back, we will send more people to patrol.
If we find someone invading, we will kill them."
Yin's eyes turned cold.
There will be some people with malicious intentions hidden among these refugees.

When the time comes, they will encounter problems, and someone may take advantage of them to rob them. "" Yin's princely temperament was in full swing, and the shopkeeper was forced to shut up.
Qing Yan looked at those people worriedly.
In order to get food and clothing, the refugees would do anything, and the food at home had to be taken care of.
"The food will be delivered at night, and there will be something to cover it with."
Qing Yan was worried.
"Slave, wake up," the shopkeeper quickly promised.
His master has spoken, and of course things must be handled satisfactorily.
That night, the vehicles transporting grain and grass to the mansion at Yuelai Inn were replaced by horse-drawn carriages, as if they were visiting relatives.
The shopkeeper followed the carriage into the door, and he had to admire his master.
If it weren't for his cleverness, the food would probably have been robbed at the entrance of the village.
The refugees quietly watched the movement of the carriage from inside the door panel.
"Four-four, let people stare outside."
Qingyan felt that it was too quiet, and there was always a sense of uneasiness in her heart.
Coming back from today, Elu and other guards all took the fire command and were ready to attack at any time.
"I know" Yin also nodded
