"Building roads?" Lin Yunfeng had no reaction to Lin Xianyu's last words, but he still had a deep understanding of this road construction.
"It is true that many places here have inconvenient transportation and all kinds of inconveniences. If roads can be built, it will indeed make the people here rich as soon as possible."
"But building roads requires a lot of money."
Lin Yunfeng is naturally well aware of the inconvenient transportation in Lijiang County. In some places, it is difficult to travel long distances to buy seeds and salt, and it is inconvenient to buy and sell grain.
"Yes, if you want to be rich, you must first build roads. I have calculated the money, but actually I don't need much. Now is the year of famine. As long as we can provide a full meal, many people will be willing to come, and winter happens to be another year. It¡¯s my free time, so I won¡¯t delay my farm work.¡±
Lin Xianyu said, if it is a good harvest year, a lot of money will be needed, but in a famine year, as long as a mouthful of food is provided, many people will flock to it.
Of course, Lin Xianyu will not be so evil, but after all, he has to do his best and try to control the monthly expenditure to about one thousand taels to complete the task.
"But this food is not easy to buy now." Lin Yunfeng sighed.
"Little sister, I know you are kind-hearted, but how can this food be so easy to buy these days? Although rich rice merchants have surplus food, you can't force them to take out the food."
Lin Yunfeng also sighed. The high status of this merchant also has its disadvantages. They insisted that they had no surplus food and there was nothing they could do about it.
"These are the potatoes I'm talking about. There will be a harvest in three months. Then, I plan to build a glass workshop in Lijiang County and exchange grain for the glass."
Lin Xianyu then revealed his plan.
"This is feasible, but the glass is very expensive, and the transportation in Lijiang County is not very convenient. It is not convenient to transport, so it would be better to build it in Yuhang or Lishui County."
Lin Yunfeng¡¯s first consideration was the transportation of glass. He was not worried that the glass could not be exchanged for food. After all, glass was more valuable and rarer than food, and it was a symbol of status.
What's more, as long as winter wheat and potatoes can be successfully planted, those wealthy businessmen will naturally know that soon Jianghuai County will no longer be so extremely short of food. Although it is still small, at least it can sustain it, and the chance of making a fortune for the country will be gone. It is better to Replace the glass.
"Brother, this glass is our Lin family's exclusive business. How can I rest assured that it will be built elsewhere?"
Lin Xianyu was not talking about Lin Yunfeng's political achievements or other reasons, because Lin Yunfeng was a very upright man, and he would not let the glass workshop be built in an obviously inconvenient place for this reason.
But Lin Xianyu¡¯s reason was something Lin Yunfeng couldn¡¯t refuse. This was the family¡¯s exclusive business. It would definitely not be safe if it was left to others. The more losses there would be, the more losses there would be.
"Besides, aren't I going to build another road?" Lin Xianyu said with a smile, "Let's build the one next to the Lijiang County Glass Workshop first!"
"Okay, little sister, just make your decision. But do you have a suitable candidate to be in charge of the workshop?" Lin Yunfeng asked.
"Of course. I had planned to build a glass workshop in Jiangnan before. After all, glass is precious and cannot be transported long distances. So I brought someone here, Qing Pheasant, one of the first five orphans I adopted." (Note Please visit our website: www.hlnovel.com
