Chapter 898 Guanzhong Problem, Flood

After getting Wei Ke's confirmation again, Liu Zhang no longer has any doubts in his heart.

The Jia Kui in front of him is exactly the Jia Kui that Liu Zhang wants to recruit!

However, Liu Zhang has a different idea about Jia Kui's usage.

Liu Zhang firmly believed in Wei Ke's art of war.

In the first battle of Shiting in history, Cao Xiu fell into the trap and nearly wiped out his entire army, causing the situation in Huainan to deteriorate.

But in the end it was Jia Kui who stood up, turned the tide and repelled Soochow.

From this, it can be shown that Jia Kui is not only a counselor, but also has the ability to command troops.

Whether he can become a handsome talent like Zhou Yu and Lu Xun, there is no specific conclusion.

However, it can govern one side so that the people of a state can live and work in peace and contentment, and it can also lead a large army to fight and repel powerful enemies.

Jia Kui can really be called a rare all-around talent in the late Han Dynasty.

Liu Zhang did not have an accurate estimate of Jia Kui's ability to command troops, and he does not know whether Jia Kui, who defeated Soochow in history, experienced a different growth.

At present, there may be no wars in Qin State in the next few years. It would be a waste if Jia Kui was trained as a general in charge of the army.

But there is absolutely no need to question Jia Kui's ability to govern states and counties.

Put him in the position of government affairs at this time, and he will definitely achieve good results in the next few years.

Thinking of this, Liu Zhang also made a decision.

"Liang Dao, there is a very important matter right now. Because it is too difficult, there is no suitable candidate yet."

"Do you dare to take on this important task?"

Jia Kui thought for a while, then cupped his hands and asked Liu Zhang.

"Dare to ask Qin Gong, what is the specific matter?"

How can things that Liu Zhang finds difficult be so easy?

Jia Kui didn't agree immediately, he also needs to know what the specific responsibilities are, and see if he can do it.

If it can't be done, Jia Kui will never agree to a task that cannot be completed just because he wants to be valued by Liu Zhang.

Liu Zhang nodded slightly, very satisfied with Jia Kui's question.

Although he is young, his personality is extremely calm. He deserves to be a famous virtuous official in history!

"Guanzhong is fertile and wild for thousands of miles. It was originally a fertile land, and the Han Dynasty also rose in Guanzhong!"

"However, after hundreds of years of devastation, Guanzhong is becoming more and more dilapidated, and now is the most desolate time!"

"Guanzhong is extremely important to our state of Qin. If we want to wipe out the rebellion and revive the Han Dynasty, we must let Guanzhong rise again."

"The Qiang and Hu were attached, the Xiongnu and Xianbei suffered heavy losses one after another, and all the foreign aggressions in the Guanzhong land have been calmed down. Now is a great time to revive and return to its peak!"

Everyone was slightly taken aback, but none of them understood what Liu Zhang meant by saying these words.

Jing Zhaoyin is Wei Ke, Yongzhou Inspector is Liu Ye, shouldn't it be the responsibility of these two to revive Guanzhong?

Telling Jia Kui now, do you want to entrust all the major affairs of Guanzhong to a brat?

Jia Kui, who has always been calm, has become nervous now.

The burden of Fuxing Guanzhong is too heavy, and for him now, it is indeed beyond his capabilities.

"Duke Qin, my servant..."

Liu Zhang raised his hand and did not let Jia Kui continue talking.

"Liang Dao, listen to Gu first."

Jia Kui hurriedly bowed his hands to apologize, and turned into a posture of listening attentively.

"The fertile fields in Guanzhong are thousands of miles away, and it is known as the Land of Longxing, mainly because of the several major rivers in Guanzhong!"

"The main ones are the Weishui, Jingshui and the Yellow River."

"With the nourishment of these water systems, this land can support a large number of people and produce a large amount of food!"

"However, after years of neglect and abandonment, today's Weishui, Jingshui and the Yellow River have not only failed to nourish Guanzhong, but have become a disaster for Guanzhong!"

"If you want to revitalize Guanzhong, you must first manage these rivers in Guanzhong."

The water system in Guanzhong is extremely complicated, and floods will occur in the past ten years.

If this problem is not resolved, the revival of Guanzhong is still empty talk.

This time Liu Zhang had been discussing with Jia Xu, Xun Yu, Liu Ye and others for a long time, but he suffered from the fact that there were no talents to deal with the flood.

In history, Jia Kui built water conservancy projects in Yuzhou and dug more than 200 miles of canals!

Because of this feat, it was praised as "Jia Houqu" by the people, and it has achieved very dazzling results.

Now that Jia Kui suddenly appeared, Liu Zhang saw the hope of completely solving the flood in Guanzhong.

"Duke Qin, to be honest, I'm not sure about this matter."

"The water system in Guanzhong is extremely complicated, and the various rivers are connected to each other. If one pulls it, the whole body will be affected!"

"If you are not careful, it is very likely to cause a catastrophe!"

Even though Liu Zhang's eyes were extremely urgent, Jia Kui still maintained his last sanity.

The flood in Guanzhong is really not so easy to manage.

Since the establishment of the Eastern Han Dynasty, it was not that the rulers did not care about Guanzhong, but that Guanzhong became more and more unstable.

Floods have gradually changed from occasional to normal, which makes the court helpless.

In the knowledge Jia Kui has learned, it is true about flood control, but he is still not sure that he can solve the problem in Guanzhong.

Leaving aside the difficulties involved, the people who were conscripted and the money and food consumed are enough to make people amazed!

Liu Zhang sighed lightly, and then showed helplessness.

"Liang Dao, why doesn't Gu not know that the water system in Guanzhong is complicated, otherwise why is there no suitable candidate so far?"

"If the flood in Guanzhong is not eliminated for a day, floods and droughts will continue to plague Guanzhong."

"Want to restore Guanzhong to its heyday, it's a fool's dream!"

Floods must be followed by severe droughts, which is still the norm from time immemorial.

If the flood cannot be effectively dealt with, after the flood recedes, it will face the problem of water shortage.

If things go on like this, not to mention the restoration of people's livelihood in Guanzhong, it may be enough to bring down the entire Qin State!

At present, the situation in various places is gradually becoming clear, and it is already very difficult to buy food in large quantities in the future.

If Liu Zhang does not find a way to increase grain output by himself, it will directly limit the development of Qin's population.

Jia Kui frowned, clenched his fists, and was still thinking about the feasibility of this matter.

Jia Kui was very grateful that Liu Zhang could entrust such an important task to a young man who had not yet reached his thirties.

However, Jia Kui also had to ensure that he lived up to Liu Zhang's expectations, otherwise it would be better to let Liu Zhang choose another talented person.

Liu Zhang was not in a hurry to get the answer, but stood aside and watched Jia Kui silently.

All eyes in the room were focused on Jia Kui.

Among them, Wei Ke has the strongest look of anticipation. As a friend for many years, he hopes that Jia Kui can take this opportunity to fully display his talent.

After a long time, Jia Kui finally raised his head, all the confusion in his eyes disappeared.

"Qin Gong, it is almost impossible to solve the flood in Guanzhong."

Hearing Jia Kui's words, everyone around showed strange expressions.

Wei Ke also wilted like a frost-beaten eggplant.

"You do not dare?"

Liu Zhang was also very disappointed in his heart, which was very different from Jia Kui in his memory.

At this moment, Jia Kui chuckled a few times, with a confident look on his face.

"Hehe, even Duke Qin dares, why don't I dare?"

"However, I would like to ask Mr. Qin, can he bear the astronomical consumption of money?"
