He chuckled: "If Tianshui City is expanded, no matter what the price of the new house is, I want to move out!"
In the past, how could he have the right to speak in front of so many nobles and nobles? But when he followed He Xiao and spoke again and again, others did not find it awkward.
Gu Xuan also said: "Yes, this waterlogging has been waterlogging for decades, and it cannot be changed! When the flood season comes, water from rivers and lakes pours into the homes."
He Lingchuan had already collected this information, but at this time he expressed ignorance and surprise: "Then let's expand. Is there any taboo? The Yao country has a strong national power and a full treasury. Isn't it easy to do such a trivial matter as expanding the capital?"
Zhang Yan waved his hand: "There are big difficulties. He Island Master, you don't know that our treasury has been in deficit year after year. The accounts of the past six years have not had any positive figures."
This is not a secret, there is nothing that cannot be said.
He Lingchuan was startled: "No way? The Yao Kingdom is still in deficit, can the other countries in the Golden Flash Plain survive?"
"In such a big country, there are too many places to spend money." Zhang Yan pointed at Gu Xuan, "You will know if you ask them, a deficit in the national treasury does not necessarily mean a decline in people's livelihood. However, many new big jobs need to be done.
No way. A project as big as the expansion of Tianshui City is a bottomless pit of money that cannot be filled no matter how much money you throw at it. Do you think Wang Ting can not hesitate?"
When he said "bottomless pit," everyone here knew what he meant.
"Then we have to expand it anyway. It's better to expand it late than to expand it early." If it's a few years later, the national treasury will become increasingly deficient.
Of course, He Lingchuan did not say what was in his heart, but smiled and said: "Since we have discussed it many times, is there a direction for the expansion plan?"
"There are several plans, roughly divided into three directions: west, east and north, all with conditions for expansion."
Youhu is east of Tianshui City. He Lingchuan picked a bunch of grapes and washed them in the gold basin beside the table: "Which plan does the king prefer?"
"Originally I was thinking of heading west, but recently we have been discussing the possibility of eastward expansion."
Heading east? "Is it related to Youhu Lake?"
Zhang Yan laughed and scolded: "You are narcissistic!"
But he didn't deny it either.
The south bank of Youhu Lake is under development. It is very popular now and will become a place where officials and nobles gather in the future. If Tianshui City takes advantage of the trend to expand there, the foundation will be good.
"Does everyone agree with eastward expansion?"
"Fifty percent of those attending the meeting were in favor, 20% were opposed, and the rest did not express their position. Compared with previous meetings, this ratio is already amazing." Of course, the decision-making power rests with King Yao.
He Lingchuan smiled, knowing clearly why the courtier suddenly changed his attitude:
Many of these people have already purchased the monastery in Youhu Villa.
In order to maintain the value of the real estate they bought at a large price, they also hope that Tianshui City will expand eastward and include the entire Youhu Lake.
This is the so-called XX determines the brain.
"Where is the supervision of the country?" Qingyang will rarely be absent from important court discussions.
"The Supervisor State objects to it, believing that it is a waste of money and wastes money, and it is not appropriate to carry out large-scale construction projects when the national treasury is empty. This is also the reason for other opponents."
He Lingchuan picked a grape and ate it. Well, it was sour, sweet and very tasty.
What he was thinking was, why did Qingyang oppose the expansion of Tianshui City?
On the surface, this matter has no harm to Qingyang, and it doesn't even have anything to do with her.
Did she oppose for the sake of opposition, to cause trouble for King Yao?
This is the case in political struggles. Sometimes you may not benefit, as long as your opponent suffers.
After all, the struggle between Qingyang and King Yao, or the tug-of-war between Bejia and Yao Kingdom, should be multifaceted.
He Lingchuan smiled on the surface: "Wasting people and money? Believe it or not, if I were to handle the expansion of Tianshui City, there would be no need to consider the issue of insufficient fees. I could even fill up the treasury!"
How could Zhang Yan believe it? He pointed at him and laughed: "Big talk! He Island Master, have you eaten too much?"
"I'm serious." He Lingchuan pointed eastward, "Look at how much it cost me to build Youhu Villa, and how much money I've made already?"
Everyone knew the price he paid for the land, which was only a thousand taels.
Even if you have to hand over most of the profits, you will still have 30% left in your hands in the end!
He earns as much money in a month as someone else does ten births, and the process is like a waste of money.
Zhang Yan and other famous disciples took stock afterwards. It would be great if they could think of this trick. It is really not difficult to implement it.
Zhang Yan whispered: "Brother He, what do you mean, Tianshui City will also use this method to expand eastward?"
"Yes, pre-sale." He Lingchuan said with a smile, "Don't I just collect your money first and then build the monastery for you? There is no need to advance money myself! It doesn't matter how much money I have in my pocket.
Even if I only have ten coins, I dare to take on this project!"
He leaned forward: "If Tianshui City adopts this method to expand eastward, where will the money from the treasury be used? Whether the treasury is in deficit or in profit, what does it have to do with the eastward expansion of the capital?"
Zhang Yan and Gu Xuan's eyes flashed, and they said, "The king thinks so too."
If King Yao hadn't seen He Lingchuan's trick, how could he have planned to expand the city eastward?
He Lingchuan smiled again and said: "Tianshui City is full of refugees, which is also a hidden danger to public security. Once the eastward expansion project starts, we will drive the laborers to work. Isn't this killing two birds with one stone?"
It not only eliminates hidden dangers to public security, but also utilizes external labor.
Zhang Yan glanced at Gu Xuan, who immediately said: "But what should we do specifically?"
"The solution is not difficult, but I have to think carefully." How could He Lingchuan tell the truth? "The expansion of the capital is a big project, not comparable to a small project like Youhu Villa. There are too many things to consider."
Zhang Yan also knew that he didn't want to talk about it, so he changed the topic and talked about the war on the Golden Plains.
"It seems that few people mention the eastern and northern parts of the Golden Flash Plains?" He Lingchuan was curious, "This is the case in the Allied territory, and it is also the case in the Yao Kingdom. How can I explain it?"
"The eastern part of Flash Gold, a barbaric land, the tribes there even have the habit of cannibalism. Because there are no valuable mineral deposits there, the Flash Gold Empire a thousand years ago also left the east unchecked." Yu Wenxu explained, "As for
The northern part of Flash Gold is a paradise for monsters. It is inaccessible and the weather is cold. These countries on the plains are unable to expand northward, so the northern part of Flash Gold maintains the status quo."
"That's it." It's similar to the information Yang Shan got, nothing new.
It seems that Yao State has no interest in these two places.
At this time, Prince Qing's Mansion sent someone to find the second young master. Zhang Yan toasted He Lingchuan with a glass of wine and then left early.
After he left, everyone continued to drink and chatted more openly.
He Lingchuan then asked about the Flying Flower Festival again, and Gu Xuan smiled and said: "It's so lively, it's a pity that Brother He didn't come."
