Chapter 1176: Plan ahead
Various possibilities flashed through Gu Chunzhu's mind, but the outcome of each possibility was extremely tragic. Although this may seem a little worrying, Gu Chunzhu felt that there must be demons in an abnormal situation, and it is better to be prepared than to be unprepared.
"I should hurry up and discuss with Brother Wang." Gu Chunzhu whispered to himself, behind him, Mama Liu didn't even hear Gu Chunzhu talking.
Just as she was about to get up, she raised her eyes and glanced over the bronze mirror, and a word suddenly flashed across her, "Take copper as a mirror, you can correct your clothes; take people as a mirror, you can understand the pros and cons; take history as a mirror, you can know the ups and downs."
Gu Chunzhu suddenly calmed down. Brother Wang came back for the evening. She couldn't waste the whole day. She should collect data to prove her thoughts, and summarize some countermeasures by the way.
Behind her, Mama Liu was arranging flowers for Gu Chunzhu, when Gu Chunzhu suddenly stood up, and the hairpin pulled a strand of her hair from the combed bun.
Liu's mother opened her mouth and was about to stop Gu Chunzhu, but she met Gu Chunzhu's cold eyes in the mirror. Liu's mother didn't say a word, and watched Gu Chunzhu stride away. Liu's mother was stunned for a moment with the hairpin, and then quickly put down the hairpin to catch up with Gu Chunzhu.
Gu Chunzhu heard the hurried footsteps behind him, and arranged without looking back, "Mother Liu, I will send both breakfast and lunch to the study later, but try to use less soup to avoid overturning and soiling the books."
"Yes, ma'am." Even though Mama Liu had all kinds of doubts, she swallowed them all when she felt the tension on Gu Chunzhu's body. After that, she turned around nervously and strode away, anxiously going to the kitchen to give this order.
When Liu's mother went to the study with breakfast, she found that the table in the study was filled with books by Gu Chunzhu. There is a tall stack on the left side of the desk, and the rest of the place is filled with books that are spread out.
"Madam, do you want to eat first?" Liu's mother had to put the food in the next room, and then turned around and came back to Gu Chunzhu.
Gu Chunzhu didn't lift his head, glanced at the book in his left hand and compared it with the book in his right. Mother Liu thought that Gu Chunzhu didn't hear it, so she walked forward and asked again.
"Wait a while, wait for me to finish reading this part." Gu Chunzhu continued to flip through the book, and said slightly perfunctory.
At this time, Gu Chunzhu was investigating the droughts and disasters that had been recorded in the past. Many records in the official history of the imperial court were when the disaster had expanded. She had to find some local history or even travel notes for comparison. Gu Chunzhu intends to deduce the possible development from the past. She hopes that history can tell her that her conjectures are all wrong.
Liu's mother became a little quieter after hearing this, but she was paying close attention to Gu Chunzhu's every move, waiting for Gu Chunzhu to finish reading the book in her hand so that she could rush up and put it away in time.
Gu Chunzhu didn't embarrass Liu's mother, she did what she said. She made a mark and finally looked up at Liu's mother and asked, "Where is my morning meal now? Hurry up and bring it so I can continue to look for it sooner."
Liu's mother glanced at the desk with no free space in embarrassment, and asked for instructions, "Madam, let's go to eat next door, this desk can't hold anything. Besides, do you want me to help you tidy up the desk, Madam?"
Gu Chunzhu got up without saying a word, and replied, "It's okay, I'll talk about it after I finish it."
The hearty breakfast that I originally wanted to treat myself ended up being a simple combination of omelette and tea, and the tea was added temporarily because it was moved to the next door. Gu Chunzhu didn't care about this at all, he quickly finished his breakfast and went to the study to hide.
Gu Chunzhu was busy until the afternoon, and when she looked up from the book, she realized that the sun had already set in the west. She packed up the necessary materials and a stack of summaries she wrote, and summoned Mama Liu to put all the other books in their original places.
Finally, when Su Wangqin came back, Gu Chunzhu didn't even wait for Su Wangqin to eat, he pulled him and said with a stern face, "Brother Wang, I found something unusual. There may be a big turmoil next year, and we have to guard against it."
After hearing this, Su Wangqin sat down quietly, frowned and asked solemnly, "What's wrong? What's the danger?"
Gu Chunzhu first put a bunch of materials into Su Wangqin's hands, and Su Wangqin explained briefly while looking at her, "I have checked historical books and various travel notes, if the winter the year before last was unusually warm, then the next spring is very likely to experience drought, and With a large-scale locust plague. And after the drought passes, there is a great possibility of flooding in the south."
Su Wangqin quickly flipped through the paper in his hand in silence, pursed his lips and thought for a while, and then said slowly, "But you have no proof that it will definitely happen, no matter how high the possibility is, it is not enough to convince the people in the court, they will not believe it. "
The more he talked about Su Wangqin's eyes, the colder his eyes became. He remembered the vast number of soldiers who died on the battlefield because of the lack of clothing and food because of the people in the court.
In the end, he said more and more calmly, every word as cold as ice, "The most important thing is, disaster prevention, who will do this, and who will bear the extra expense! Will this expense be more than The disaster relief expenditure is more! Hehe, I can imagine what a ridiculous scene would be in the hall if this matter is discussed in the court."
What Su Wangqin said also gave a heavy blow to Gu Chunzhu's heart, yes, what if we knew it would be a drought? Developed water conservancy projects are not built in a day, there is no artificial rainfall at present, and the most important thing is that there is not enough money.
Gu Chunzhu stared at Su Wangqin absently for a while, both of them were so silent and tense.
"Then... at least I have to tell Da Zhuang and Jin Han, at least we have to get over the locust plague so that the farmers can
Sow with peace of mind. The drought in spring will not last for long, and there will always be a few crops that survive. When it rains heavily... dig ditches and build a shed, the roots should not be soaked by the rain. "Gu Chunzhu still wants to work hard, the consequences of drought and flood are something she doesn't want to see.
Apart from the fact that her own life is not very good, she may have to eat Chenliang, and there is not much vegetables to eat, the prince will definitely take this opportunity to fix Xiaocheng and specially send Xiaocheng to difficult places. She wants to try her best to reduce Xiaocheng's risks in the early stage. .
"This can be done. I will tell Xiaocheng and ask him to write a letter to Da Zhuang and Jin Hanxiu, so that the two can focus on the situation of the beginning of spring." Su Wangqin sincerely hopes that everything discussed today is nothing to worry about, but he is also very It is clear that once the spring day big Zhuang Jin Han replies that there is little rain, or even a locust plague, then next year's life will not be easy.
Gu Chunzhu nodded heavily and leaned on Su Wangqin's shoulder silently, "Why are there so many things recently?
