"I don't know this. I haven't communicated with the Gao family yet. Let's try it next and see if the Gao family is worthy of it!" Feng Yuzhi said with great meaning.
Lin Haoming said on his own: "The Gao family will agree, but in fact it has agreed. I have proposed this matter for a long time. The Gao family must have known it and did not stop it. It shows their attitude. And if they disagree, they will be against me and you. Since Yuncheng is the main leader, does the Gao family want to take a step forward? I heard that he is still a sixth-grade rank!"
"Hehe, Brother Lin is right!" Tie Chengye nodded without stopping.
Things were indeed as Lin Haoming expected. When Lin Haoming and Feng Yuzhi found Gao Liangsheng and told them about it, Gao Liangsheng immediately agreed and was willing to send a large number of farmers who rely on the Gao family to help dig the canal. The only condition was that as long as they could pay their wages.
Things were better than Lin Haoming imagined, but the biggest problem was still not solved. Lin Haoming knew that this was not a counter-attack for Gao Liangsheng, but a stubborn disease of Chigang City that had been accumulated for a long time, that is, Chigang City had no money.
The Chigang City Housing Council deducted the salary of all officials in the coming year, which totaled only a dozen annual crystals and less than three million stones of melted rice.
Lin Haoming would never do the temporary deduction of salary, and it would arouse public anger. As Jia Kai had blocked the allocation of funds, there were only two ways to go. The first was to ask the rich family to borrow money. In Chigang City, in fact, it was to ask the Gao family to borrow money. This was obviously not what Lin Haoming wanted to see.
The second road is to draw taxes! This is obviously not a easy way to go.
Although the money problem was difficult to solve for a while, Tiechengye still took the workplace staff first and began to explore the terrain and design the direction of the canal.
After a month of investigation, Tiechengye designed a canal from Lushui River to Chiyan River to the north of Chigang City, a total of 800 miles north and south, including six dams and reservoirs. Once completed, it will only take more than ten years to cultivate, and tens of thousands or even more than 100,000 acres of fertile land will be added to the north. Even if it is not as good as Weilin Lake hosted by Jia Kai, the difference will not be too much.
But this project is really huge. At present, it is calculated that the 800-mile river channel plus six dams, and the reservoir requires at least 100,000 to 300,000 yuan in time. This is still the case when the project can be completed on time without any accidents or delays.
Faced with such a huge project cost, Lin Haoming was also a little in trouble, especially the initial project requires at least 300,000 Shijing, which is a little in trouble.
Because there is no money and food, this matter can only be done slowly for the time being, so that Tie Chengye will also take the surveyors back and report to the death first. Although there will be no big problem with the plan, the next thing will be difficult to deal with.
On the same day Lin Haoming sent away Tie Chengye, Gao Liangsheng once again sent an invitation to Lin Haoming.
Lin Haoming has been with Tie Chengye for more than a month and even Feng Yuzhi didn't have much contact. At this time, Gao Liangsheng suddenly looked for him. Lin Haoming thought that there was only one, that is, Gao Liangsheng might have to take action on the project.
Lin Haoming naturally would not refuse Gao Liangsheng's invitation, and arrived at Gao's house in the evening.
It was still in the water pavilion building last time, and the dishes were still rich, but compared to last time, only Gao Liangsheng was with him this time.
It is natural that only two people speak more easily. After a few words of politeness, Gao Liangsheng immediately entered the topic.
Sure enough, things were exactly the same as Lin Haoming thought, and Gao Liangsheng did plan to intervene in the canal.
Chigang City has no money, the Gao family has money, and the Gao family is willing to pay, but one condition is that the Gao family must obtain the power to rent new land, and it will be a thousand years.
Although everything grown in the fields has to be handed over to the treasury, there are gaps in ten fingers, let alone this one. If there are 100,000 mu of land in the end, it is probably not less than the amount of investment this time in a thousand years. If you are thinking about it, and in this way, the Gao family will occupy more fields in Chigang City, which is not good for Lin Haoming.
Of course, Lin Haoming did not immediately reject Gao Liangsheng, but said that he had to consider it when he went back. He really wanted Feng Yuzhi to discuss this matter. At least there was a countermeasure after the plan approval. Shi Jing could not take out 300,000 Shi Jing, so he would get at least 200,000 first to make the project move.
Seeing that Lin Haoming never let go, Gao Liangsheng did not continue to chase after him, but he was not as polite as he was at the beginning. He left after almost the meal.
When he came, Gao Pei came to pick him up in person. Because the matter was not completed, Gao Pei did not send him off, but just asked the Gao family to find a coachman to give him away.
Lin Haoming also knew that his attitude made Gao Liangsheng a little dissatisfied, but he did not want the Gao family to be satisfied and didn't care about it.
The carriage started and had just walked for a while, Lin Haoming suddenly felt something was wrong. He suddenly rushed out of the carriage, grabbed the coachman's neck, and said coldly: "Where are you going to take me?"
The coachman was just an ordinary person. After being caught by Lin Haoming, he was so scared that he trembled and replied stammeringly: "Master... Sir, I... No, it's Hongmei... Hongmei wants to see you!"
Lin Haoming was a little surprised when he heard these words. He didn't know why Gao Fangfang's maid wanted to see him. When he was drinking today, he remembered the light dance on the water.
"Where is she?" Lin Haoming asked.
"Just...just in front...before!" said the coachman in fear.
Lin Haoming carefully observed the surroundings and confirmed that the coachman was indeed fine, so he let go of him. Soon after, the carriage stopped at the entrance of an alley. In the dark alley, a girl immediately emerged and immediately arrived on the carriage.
"Sir!" The girl was indeed Hongmei, and the little girl's pretty face was full of anxiety at this moment.
"What are you asking for me?" Lin Haoming asked, but he didn't have much feelings.
"Sir, you... help the lady!" Hongmei begged as soon as she spoke, as if she treated Lin Haoming as the savior.
"Save your lady, why are she bullied again?" Lin Haoming asked casually, as if facing a stranger.
"No, yes... the master is going to give the lady away!" Hongmei didn't pay attention or care about these things, but just said anxiously.
"It was Gao Chengwei who chose a husband for her!" Lin Haoming asked lightly.
Chapter completed!
