Chapter 496: Intentions

According to what Lu Chensheng said, build a canal to Chengzhou State.

At that time, the canal will connect the more water-poor areas of the Chengzhou Kingdom, so that there will be enough water in these places.

With the canal, the traffic along the route will be much better.

Dacang is rich in fruits, such as lychees or something, and when they are transported to Chengzhou Kingdom, they are already rotten, and the price of partial birth is still very high.

But if there is a waterway, it will shorten the time a lot, and if it is preserved, it may be possible to eat fresh lychees.

At that time, if there is a war, the transportation of grain and grass will be much easier!

Especially those vassal kings, who are extremely dishonest at the moment, once there is this canal.

After the war, the victory rate of the dynasty increased a lot, and the troops were quickly deployed, and the vassal kings could be defeated one by one.

In the future, there will be a lot less drought.

The canal on Lu Chensheng's side, I heard that there is an underground river in the valley that is flowing continuously, not to mention, it is also connected with the Great Cangguo.

When has there ever been a shortage of water in Dacangguo?

There is no shortage of water in Dacangguo, which means that once this canal is built, there will be no shortage of water.

And it's actually very good to give money to Lu Chensheng!

Anyway, just give the money directly, they don't have to worry about the rest, Lu Chensheng will handle it properly.

What a wonderful thing!

The people can continue to farm, not that they dig their own canals and ask the people to do labor, and the people who toss are miserable.

The more he thought about it, the more excited he became.

I feel like this canal needs to be built.

Look, the canal connecting the Great Cangguo to Xinghan City is there, so the number of people in the Great Cangguo of Xinghan City is more than that of Jiang Guo and Chengzhou Kingdom!

In the past, the number of people in the three countries was almost the same.

Because of this canal, after the transportation is convenient, the number of people who come has increased a lot.

The trading volume has also increased a lot.

The merchants brought all kinds of charcoal, wood, dyes and other bits and pieces to sell here to Seonghan City.

The demand for these things in Xinghan City is too great, and basically everyone who comes refuses.

With the transportation of ships, the shipment volume is directly several times higher.

Naturally, there is more money to be made.

He looked red-eyed.

The key is that the ship transportation is much more convenient and saves money!

The envoy of the Chengzhou State was a little entangled.

He suddenly felt that this canal seemed to be more important than the war horse.

"This, this, this matter is still for the official to report a thing or two."

The matter was too big for him to handle.

Lu Chensheng asked Cheng Zhouguo to pay for it, and they didn't need to deal with the rest of the things.

But this must be a very large amount of money to support Lu Chensheng to dig through this canal!

In this way, this matter is naturally not up to him.

However, he also felt that the canal could indeed be dug.

After thinking about it, I wanted to go back and ask for instructions.

Lu Chensheng should come down, and this time the discussion ended here, and nothing was discussed.

When the envoy of the Great Cangguo found out, they were also anxious. delicacies

He didn't know if Lu Chensheng had negotiated with the other party, what he wanted to know was what was going on inside.

How many war horses does Chengzhou Guo want, and has the price been raised?

What did Lu Chensheng think, was he going to change his hexagram or something?

Thinking about his war horses, he became more and more anxious.

According to the intelligence, he only knew that there were many war horses in the city, but he didn't know how many there were!

Xiao Yu cleaned up the table on the side, thinking about the appearance of the envoys of the Chengzhou Kingdom just now, and suddenly couldn't help laughing.

"Childe, the envoy of the Chengzhou Kingdom just now is really funny, if Childe is trying harder, persuade me more, I'm afraid the other party will agree on the spot."

The construction of a canal for Chengzhou is actually very beneficial to Lu Chensheng.

Once this canal is built, the ore in the Chengzhou Kingdom can be easily transported to Xinghan City.

I asked for a few ores in Chengzhou before, but now they have begun to be mined.

It's just that it's inconvenient to go back and forth, and the progress of mining is okay, but it's bad luck on the road!

"I have to see if the other party can agree after I go back, just let this person agree has no effect, the other party is just an official, such a big thing, the other party has no practical effect if he agrees."

Lu Chensheng shook his head.

It was seen that the other party couldn't solve such a big matter, so Lu Chensheng didn't continue to persuade him, but just asked the other party to go back and apply.

If Princess Yuqing is here, presumably the other party can deal with this matter.

Moreover, Princess Yuqing is very smart and can also know the importance of this canal.

It's a pity that the other party didn't come this time, maybe the other party is a princess in the end, and she was excluded.

Last time, the other party's methods of dealing with the victims were not bad, but it was estimated that it was too eye-catching, and some people were unhappy.

It is not unreasonable for Lu Chensheng to think so.

Just like Bai Yi, he is clearly a very good general, and those guys have to rob the military power, and then throw Bai Yi aside.

"It would be great if I agreed, the canal was built, which is of course convenient for the Chengzhou Kingdom, but it is also the same for us, and the ores in the Chengzhou Kingdom are also easy to transport to Xinghan City."

Xiao Yu whispered a word as she cleaned up the table.

Lu Chensheng nodded, Xiao Yu naturally did not say anything wrong.

It's really good to take Cheng Zhouguo's money and help make it convenient for yourself.

In addition, without the permission of Cheng Zhouguo, Lu Chensheng wanted to build a waterway to pass, but it was actually unlikely.

Maybe people will still get in the way, if the role is changed, and the other party begs Lu Chensheng to go over to repair the canal, then the situation will be different.

Not only will you not be troubled when building the canal, but the other party will welcome it.

The envoy returned to his residence and immediately wrote a letter.

After writing it, he arranged for the soldiers to rush back immediately, and it was important for the emperor to see the letter as soon as possible.

Decide whether to build a canal or not.

In addition, regarding the matter of the war horse, Lu Chensheng's asking price was a little higher than they thought.

I'm afraid that the previous money was a little insufficient, so let the emperor bring some more.

The mission of the Great Cangguo here, if you don't do it, I'm afraid that the war horse will be snatched away by the other party.

There was no need to think about it at all, both of them guessed that the other party should be coming for the war horse.

The soldier took the letter and soon left Xinghan City to return to the Zhou Kingdom.

The envoys of the Chengzhou Kingdom also breathed a sigh of relief at this moment, and they had to wait patiently next.

It's just that everyone's hearts are still hot, thinking that it would be great if the emperor could agree to this matter.

Once the canal is built, the benefits are numerous.
