During his stay in Yingzhou, in order to develop agricultural production and overhaul water conservancy, he left 10,000 Yellow River doctors to dredge Yingzhou West Lake in Jiaopotang and built three sluices. Dredged earth is piled into the berm of Yingzhou West Lake, which is covered with weeping willows. It was called Su Causeway at that time. Various ornamental flowers and trees, such as magnolia, cherry blossom, hibiscus and sweet clover, have also been planted in Su Causeway. During the Southern Song Dynasty, a lake market was once formed here.
