Standing in front of the sand table, Zhang Yue took a deep breath.

Then he turned around and looked around the entire Xuanshi Hall.

At this time, it was dawn.

The sky outside the hall showed white fish belly, and the sun was about to rise.

Before speaking, Zhang Yue asked himself three questions in his heart.

“How much support do I get?”

The answer is that the ruling group, including Dangjin and all the nine ministers and ministers, have been persuaded and agreed to his plan.

At least, I promise to give it a try.

Last night, I hit more than 2,000 stones who came to Beijing to report their work.

Judging from the feedback, they have basically been ‘convinced’.

So, the second question is: "Will the possible opposition force gather enough energy in this Xuanshi Hall to destroy the plan?"

After thinking about it carefully, Zhang Yue ruled out this possibility.

Where did the opposition come from in this Xuanshi Hall?

Ninety percent of the court officials were northerners.

They didn't care, and the interests of local bureaucrats and gentry thousands of miles away were damaged.

Even the scheming officials were already exposed by Zhang Yue’s details, so scared that they didn’t even dare to breathe.

At this time, Zhang Yue, who is in a narrow sense, can wield the big sticks of "Lishu" and "Tianxia" at any time and directly knock any possible opponents to death.

The third question is: "Can the people of Qingzhou, Yangzhou and Xuzhou support their own plans?"

After thinking about it for a moment, Zhang Yue knew that most of them would support it!

Just look at the sand table in front of you and you will know it.

The three prefectures of Qingxu and Yang in the southeast are located in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River and the south bank of the Yellow River.

Its region covers most of Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Shandong and Anhui in later generations.

However, in such a huge area, there are only two larger canals and several small canals.

All were built by the Wu State in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Qin State after the unified period.

The people will definitely support it!

At that time, the Hedong County Magistrates had a lot of ideas and planned to build the Sanmenxia Water Conservancy Project to tame the Yellow River.

As a result, I naturally encountered a bruised nose and swollen face, wasted several years and hundreds of thousands of laborers in the civilians, and only obtained tens of thousands of acres of beach fields as the result.

However, after the Fan Group made this decision, people from all over Hedong County and even the entire Sanhe area, regardless of wealth or wealth, raised their limbs to support them.

If you have money, you can contribute your strength, and if you have someone, you can contribute your help.

There is a lively construction scene everywhere.

Even the brain-historical project like Sanmenxia (proposed in this era is roughly equivalent to later generations saying that they would blow up the Himalayas) can attract and unite the people of the entire Sanhe area.

Now, if the country wants to build a large-scale project in the southeast, no one will refuse!

At least, most people in Qingzhou, Xuzhou and Yangzhou will support it!

After all, the Han Dynasty is now a society dominated by small peasant economy.

After thinking about these three questions clearly, Zhang Yue became full of confidence.

Looking at the sand table in front of him, he first bowed to the emperor's throne, then bowed to the court officials on both sides, and said, "Your Majesty, please see, this is the Qingxu Yang sand table model built by the minister of Lantai, the eunuch, and the group of people to work together..."

"Qingzhou, Xuzhou, Yangzhou, twenty-two counties and states, mountains, rivers, rivers, cities and towns, all of which are listed!"

"I have just reported to Your Majesty and all the Ming Dukes, the population, land, corvee and taxes of the three prefectures of Qingxu and Yang! I believe Your Majesty and all the Ming Dukes, naturally they all know the seriousness and urgency of the three prefectures!"

"Your Majesty asks me how to solve this problem!" Zhang Yue looked at the emperor and bowed: "I am stupid, I only thought of a stupid solution!"

"Open source!"

"Qingzhou Daishanhai, Yangzhou is surrounded by sea, and Xuzhou is between Haidai, with dense water networks, rivers and rivers converging, and many swamps, and big lakes!"

"However, there are almost no large-scale water conservancy projects in its territory, including Shao Canal and Water Conservancy!"

"The largest canal is Hangou or built by King Fuchai of Wu..."

"In my humble opinion, it is most beneficial to carry out Southeast water conservancy construction at this time!"

"It can not only benefit future generations and benefit all generations, but also build the merits of Emperor Yu, so that Your Majesty can discuss the merits of the Xia Hou family!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the emperor on the throne changed slightly and became a little excited.

Compare with the Three Kings and Five Emperors.

This is a beautiful dream that countless Chinese kings have ever had.

Especially the current person, he always wants to travel far away from Tang and Yu, and be matched with the Three Kings.

Although reality always brings him one setback after another, this cannot stop his passionate pursuit at all.

The court officials whispered and talked a lot.

The construction of super water conservancy projects is politically correct in the Han Dynasty.

As long as there is a suitable plan, there is financial support.

No one will object!

A few years ago, when he was the senior official of Zhao Guozhong, he proposed to build a brand new channel to connect the Zheng Guo Canal and Jingshui to benefit the people of Guanzhong.

The memorial arrived in Lantai in the morning and received an instruction in the afternoon: Yes!

Three days later, the channel construction leading group led by Bai Gong began to form, and exploration began. Construction started in half a year. The channel project, which was more than 300 miles long, was completed in two years.

All the funds left, and the Shaofu did not spend a penny on the treasury.

The people of Guanzhong were even more happy and made many songs to praise this great channel.

Therefore, in theory, court officials do not oppose any water conservancy construction.

The only question is - where does the money come from?

Especially the military generals became even more nervous.

At that time, in order to build the Zheng State Canal, Qin State gritted its teeth and did not send troops to Guandong for more than ten years.

Now, if the country invests heavily and all its energy to build water conservancy projects in the southeast.

So……

Will military expenditure be deducted and used to support Southeast construction?

No one knows.

But because of this, everyone became nervous.

Generals generally do not get involved in the government affairs, but as long as they are involved in their own interests, they will definitely stand up and speak.

They are the Han Dynasty's best group to protect their children.

However, the more than 300 scheming officials all raised their heads and looked at Zhang Yue with bright eyes and expectation.

In their hearts, Zhang Yue was simply a god descending to earth at this moment. The smile on his face was like the warm sunshine, nourishing the earth, just like the warm spring breeze, blowing all things.

In their opinion, this Shizhongguan is simply a savior!

He is a god who saves the suffering and the suffering!

Especially the scheming officials in Qingzhou and Yangzhou were about to cry in their eyes.

No one doesn't want their hometown to be better.

And the southeast of the Han family is because of some unspeakable reasons.

Infrastructure is lagging behind the north at least a hundred years!

There are more than a dozen water conservancy systems in Guanzhong, including Caohe, Zhengguo Canal, Longshou Canal, Zhengbai Canal, etc.

And what are there in Qingzhou, Yangzhou and Xuzhou?

There is nothing!

In addition to a ditch that has been used for hundreds of years, you can also make do with it.

Other ancient projects can no longer bear heavy responsibilities.

Especially the Yellow River embankment in Qingzhou is like a time bomb. During the flood season, the people on both sides of the embankment are not distinguished from the high and low. Who is not nervous or worried?

Who dares to forget the painful lessons that the Yellow River has brought about when gourds and pottery are broken?

Can……

There is no one in the court!

No one was willing to speak for Qing Xu Yang.
