When Wei descended to the king, he planned to ask for water to irrigate Shouyang. The northern nursery rhyme says: "Jingshan is the upper grid, the floating mountain is the lower grid, Tongtuo is the ditch, and the giant field is irrigated." Gaozu thought so, so that the hydraulic engineer Chen Chengbo, the material officer general Zu looked at the terrain, and said that the sand and soil in Huai Nei were light and not solid, and its contribution was indispensable.
