Surrounding him were many officials from the governor's office of the river, as well as officials from various government offices in Kaifeng City.

According to the will of the imperial court.

Pan Deshan, the governor of the river course, holds the title of Minister of the Ministry of Industry, with an official rank of up to the second rank. He has the power to control the local government along the Yellow River. He can recruit all people and things used for river management with the official seal of the river governor's office.

Even the Sansi Yamen of Henan Province must listen to the opinions of Pan Deshan, the river governor-general, on matters involving river management.

Although Pan Deshan has been working on the river construction site for a long time and has become as gray-headed and gray-faced as those river workers, as a second-rank governor-general, he still has a certain dignity even if he does not show it.

"Governor, it is late autumn now, and late winter will soon be coming. By then, the rainfall in the upper reaches will decrease, and the river flow will slow down. The two water reduction dams in the upper reaches of Shaanzhou City and Luoyang City will be completely closed.

When spring starts next year and the spring floods arrive, we can test the role of these two water reduction dams to see whether they can block enough river water impact downstream as deduced."

An official from the Governor's Yamen, who had the same swarthy face as Pan Deshan, tapped his finger on the two locations of Shaanzhou City and Luoyang City in front of him.

Pan Deshan pressed his hands on the bluestone strips that had been carved with grooves by the river workers to increase firmness and fit, and his eyes moved around the two water reduction dams in the upper reaches of the Yellow River.

He frowned slightly and said in a deep voice: "On both sides of the river above Luoyang City, the people on the banks must speed up their migration away from the river. Once the water reduction dam is built and the river water is blocked, the river level upstream will be raised."

Another Governor's Yamen official immediately said: "When the construction of the water reduction dam started, the Chief Executive Si Yamen had already issued an order to Henan Prefecture and Shaanxi Prefecture to relocate the people on both sides of the Taiwan Strait. Now the construction of the upstream water reduction dam is going smoothly and there is no major problem. On the contrary,

Downstream, the construction of the four dykes undertaken by the Governor needs to be accelerated."

The officials from the Chief Envoy's Department who were present took over the words: "Governor Pan, in two months, our Chief's Envoy's Yamen will definitely be able to relocate the last people on both sides of the upper reaches."

Since Henan Road was previously cleaned from top to bottom.

Nowadays, most of the officials serving as officials in Henan Province are the earliest batch of Xinxue disciples in the court.

And most of them are young people.

A motivated young man.

Under the leadership of Pei Benzhi, the current Chief Minister of Henan Province, this group of people has given all-out support and assistance to matters on the river.

Pan Deshan nodded, with a smile on his face: "After I finish my business at Liuyuankou today, I will go back to Kaifeng City. At that time, I will hold a banquet at the Governor's Yamen in honor of Uncle Pei Fang, Gao Yincha, and Yu Dusi.

I would like to express my gratitude to the Sansi Yamen for supporting my Governor’s Yamen."

All the river management matters have been going smoothly recently.

Up and down, everyone was full of joy.

The official from the Chief Envoy Si Yamen also smiled and said: "It is Henan Province who should hold a banquet to thank the Governor. The Governor governs the river, and most of the projects are within the borders of Henan Province.

This year the Governor will build a dam, and in the next two years he will build the embankment closest to the river. By then the Yellow River will be safe.

After five or six years, all the checkered embankments, moon embankments, and remote embankments will be completed. I am afraid that even a once-in-a-century flood will not be able to damage the livelihood of the people in Henan Province.

In the final analysis, the governor led his colleagues in the governor's office to manage the river, and in the end it was we all along Henan Road who benefited."

Pan Deshan smiled and said nothing.

In five years, the Yellow River will be safe. This is naturally what the people from the Chief Envoy Si Yamen said in favor of the Governor's Yamen.

It will take five years to complete the general river control project on the upper and lower reaches of the Yellow River, and then spend another five to ten years scouring the river bed and improving the historically dangerous places.

At the same time, the downstream Hongze Lake basin will be transformed, and the problem of dredging the Yellow River's outlet will be determined.

It took the imperial court at least twenty years to ensure that the Yellow River was truly safe.

And this also ensures that during this period, there will be no major dangers in the Yellow River, and the construction of various projects will go smoothly.

Pan Deshan has no worries about this.

With the emperor's grandson in the court, it can be ensured that the river management work will not be interrupted.

He changed his mouth and said: "Winter is coming soon, and hundreds of thousands of people on the river have transformed into river workers. Although the imperial court is kind and allows the common people to work in exchange for money and food, we work for the imperial court and do this river management work for the sake of the people of the world.

.

After winter, the weather is very cold, but the work on the river cannot stop. All departments and yamen must work together to raise cotton-padded clothes for the river workers after winter.

Stones and wood purchased from various places must also be documented and increased in quantity to prepare for winter snowfall that interrupts roads and prevents all kinds of materials from being delivered to the river in time."

An official in charge of materials from the River Governor's Yamen immediately said: "Don't worry Governor, we will be writing about it the day before yesterday to increase the transportation of materials on the river."

The chief envoy Si Yamen also replied: "Pei Fangbo reported to the court a month ago to transport cotton clothes, cotton, cloth and other items from the Ministry of Household Affairs. The cabinet has approved the approval, and now we are just waiting for the Ministry of Household Affairs to send the things.

It can be sent to every place on the river, and we will never let the river workers have to endure the severe cold when they go to work after winter."

On the river embankment at Liuyuankou, everyone was in harmony, working together, and everything went smoothly.

However, in a daze.

There seemed to be a commotion in the world, and everyone frowned, feeling dizzy.

"Oh no!"

"Oh no!"

"Governor! Governor, get off the embankment quickly!"

"..."

In the distance, on the embankment upstream of Liuyuankou, a group of governor's office officers rode horses, ignoring the crowded river workers on the embankment, whipping their whips and running wildly, shouting continuously.

The noise created by the guards instantly attracted everyone's attention.

Pan Deshan and others quickly turned to look at the officers galloping over on horseback.

In an instant.

Everyone's eyes widened.

Behind the officers, I saw that at some point, a thick layer of water vapor had appeared on the entire Yellow River.

There was a huge roar, behind the layers of water vapor, like thousands of troops rushing from upstream to downstream.

Something happened upstream!

Something is going to happen to the Yellow River!

In an instant, alarm bells rang in everyone's hearts.

The officers' voices were almost hoarse, but they kept shouting.

"Governor, hurry up!"

"The upstream check dam collapsed, the water reduction dam collapsed!"

"All the water upstream has come down!"

………………
Chapter completed!
