Liu He, who was looking for a capable man in the river management in Bingzhou, got several prompts for the battles of Guan Yu, Zhao Yun, Deng Yuan, Da Meng and others, learned about the war in Luoyang. At first, he was completely ignorant and could not understand why there was another war in Luoyang. However, afterwards, through the briefing of the Feiying Guard a few days ago, and the letter from Xun Yu and Cui Jun that he had just delivered two days ago, he now has a clear understanding of the situation in Luoyang.

Before the decisive battle in Luoyang broke out, Liu He sat in a Xun restaurant in Jinyang City after breakfast, ordered a pot of wine and a few side dishes, poured it on his own, and wanted to hear some remarks about water control from the guests coming and going.

He searched in various places in Bingzhou for many days, but had no results. Three days ago, he arrived in Jinyang and found that the shopkeeper of the restaurant was the shopkeeper of the restaurant where Wei Zhong was in Jiuyuan County. The other party recognized him and was about to salute him, but was stopped by Liu He in the name of his private visit. At the suggestion of the shopkeeper, he planned to stay in the restaurant for a few days. There were mixed with scholars, merchants, travelers, wanderers, small officials, and even some ordinary people who were better off would come to eat and drink, and there was a lot of news.

Liu He sat down from the beginning of the Chen period until the third quarter of the Si period, and did not hear a single sentence of topics related to water control. However, even though everyone was talking about his own trivial matters, or Yuan Shu attacked Luoyang, his relatives and friends in Xihe County, and the recent changes of the three major forces in the Taihang Mountains, etc., Liu He could also obtain some useful information from it.

Overall, at the suggestion of Xun Yu, Liu He spread the Yellow River's dam breaking through imperial edicts and secretly spreading news, and now it has begun to show results. Many people fully believe that the Yellow River's dam breaking is related to Yuan Shao and many large families involved in the Luoyang Rebellion. When everyone mentioned this, they gritted their teeth and rushed to Liu He to rescue the disaster himself, and even went to the river embankment to block the gap. They all gave a thumbs up and praised him.

Liu He had hardly heard the sound of questioning himself or speaking for others. One or two such sounds occasionally appeared, both of which were accents from other places, and were quickly attacked by the crowd around him.

"After all, the foundation in Bingzhou is solid, and the people's hearts are here. Even if Yuan Shao really seizes this place, it will definitely be difficult to truly control it. It seems that I still need to find a way to continue to grow Bingzhou. If Bingzhou can have the wealth of Jizhou, Yuzhou and Sili areas, I should be able to rest assured."

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look bitter again.

"The Yellow River has been a lot of trouble since ancient times. If it cannot be managed well, Bingzhou will not be able to become a big climate. Regardless of whether there will be another flood in the future, even if this time is a land hit by floods, if it cannot be properly repaired, it will be difficult to cultivate it within a few years. Moreover, if there is a little mistake in Sili, I will defend Bingzhou alone and beware of the east and south sides of the south at the same time. It is really not easy."

Liu He thought about these things, and each thing made him very upset, so he poured a glass of wine and tilted his head to drink.

At this time, two new guests came to the table next to him and sat opposite each other. Liu He looked up and saw that these two people were gentle, elegant, fair and elegant young men, and the other was a rough and weathered middle-aged man.

But the other party was just a stranger after all. Liu He just looked at it and continued to lower his head and drink on his own.

The two of them had just eaten a few bites of food, and the young Confucian scholar spoke first.

"Brother Zhongqi took two months to travel around the areas where the dams were broken in various counties. Can you have any countermeasures now?"

With this sentence, Liu He's ears immediately stood up: "What's the point of these two people going to the breaking place to check it out at this time? Could it be a spy sent by Yuan Shao or Yuan Shu? This young man has an extraordinary temperament, a soft voice like a bird singing in spring, and his family background should be extraordinary, I must pay attention."

He felt intent in his heart, pretending to drink, while listening to the conversation between the two.

The middle-aged man said, "This time the dam breaks out has a very wide range and involves many places. Nearly 100,000 people were affected. Countless fertile fields turned into sand in a blink of an eye, and the tragic situation was inexplicable."

The young Confucian scholar nodded slightly: "Brother said it well. Fortunately, the court provided timely relief and pensions, and the genius doctor Hua Tuo came in person. Finally, a plague was avoided. The river embankment everywhere was blocked, which was a blessing in disgrace."

When Liu He heard this person's comment, he didn't seem to be his enemy, so he let go of his guard.

The middle-aged man shook his head and said, "Although the court and the general acted in time, this harm was very deep. Everything would be fine if we had to block a few gaps. None of them was missing to manage the Yellow River, diversion of mud and sand, rebuilding river embankments, clearing farmlands, and developing water conservancy, etc. were indispensable."

The young Confucian scholar seemed to trust this person very much, and after hearing his remarks, he nodded frequently.

"My brother studied water conservancy for half his life. Since he had made contributions to river management in Jianghuai and other places, he was well aware of this. I guess he was confident and had a good solution to it?"

When Liu He heard what he said, he was shocked: "Refining water conservancy? Isn't this the person I'm pursuing hard?"

He was about to get up to visit these two people, but suddenly he forced his impulse to suppress his impulse: "No, these two people have unknown origins and suddenly appeared beside me. In their words, they seemed to have talented people in the world. How could there be such a clever thing in the world? Let me wait and see what changes will happen first."

The man was asked by a young scholar, nodded first, and then shook his head.

The young Confucian scholar wondered: "What does this mean by brother?"

The middle-aged man said: "The world controls floods and rivers, which are similar. The principles are all interconnected, and the same is true for the Yellow River this time. I understand the reason deeply, but the Yellow River breaks this time is far from comparable to other rivers. It is difficult to manage its strength and the deep disasters. If you want to restore farming in various places as soon as possible, it will be even more difficult. Moreover, the details of it are far better than the previous floods in the Jianghuai and other places. If you are not careful, it will cause endless harm. Tong is not sure what he learned well."

Liu He was slightly disappointed when he heard this, but he immediately said something again.

"However, if a group of people who are familiar with water conservancy help and everyone works together, they may be able to overcome all the difficulties. By then, it will be difficult to keep the Yellow River for a hundred years."

Hearing this, Liu He was already ready to move and could not help but walk over to visit this master.

But at this time, the young Confucian scholar said, "I have a way to take my brother to Shangdang County first and pay homage to Generals such as Guan Yun. If they are recommended, you can meet the generals in person. You and I will hurry up and have a meal. I will order the restaurant to prepare a carriage and set off immediately."

After saying that, he waved to the counter, and the shopkeeper walked over with a smile. He glanced at Liu He, greeted him with his eyes, and then came to the front of the two of them.

"I wonder what are your instructions?"

The young Confucian scholar took out a jade pendant from his arms with an extremely gentle smile and handed it to the shopkeeper.

"I'll ask the shopkeeper to prepare a carriage for me and the other two, and there are some water bags and dry food. Thank you."

The shopkeeper was a little confused about his request. His hotel had never prepared a carriage for customers. What's more, even if he had to prepare a carriage, the price was extremely high, at least more than 100,000 yuan. The other party did not pay for it and only gave him a jade pendant, which made him a little confused.

However, the restaurant management focuses on customers from all directions. If there is no need, they will never offend the customers. Therefore, the shopkeeper took over the jade pendant and looked at it carefully to identify the value of the jade pendant.

But it doesn't matter if he doesn't look at it. When he saw the appearance of the jade pendant, he immediately looked shocked.

Then, he quickly pinched and stroked the jade pendant repeatedly in his hand, as if confirming something. The young Confucian scholar was not in a hurry and just waited quietly.

Not long after, the shopkeeper probably had confirmed it, and was extremely respectful, and even his hands were trembling, bowing his body and handing the jade pendant back to the other party.
