Although the railcar is only 30 miles, it has a constant speed and will not delay time, which is faster than the speed of horse-drawn carriage transportation.

Especially in terms of transporting seafood, there is a great advantage, and some of the original carriage convoys may be retained, and most of them will be withdrawn or disbanded.

The development of caravans has now become saturated, especially the caravan capacity in Youzhou has been excessive, and many merchants cannot afford to support more people and can only lay off employees.

The unemployed have no choice but to change careers, and the current Youzhou is in need of personnel in other industries except caravans, especially construction workers.

It was still easy for the people of the disbanded caravan to find a job.

Li De formulated the plan for the implementation of the rail car, and the people of the city guard immediately implemented it In this winter, the appearance of the rail car attracted a lot of attention.

All those who go to the half-city inn will stop using horse-drawn carriages and will switch to railcars, which will be equipped with glass and a heating pipe that extends into the carriages to keep warm.

The heating pipes keep the journey from getting cold, and the interior of the car is a very simple horizontal row of wooden benches, which can accommodate 20 people in one compartment and a total of 40 people in two carriages.

Cargo is not allowed to exceed the size of one person, and the ride on the rail car is free of charge during the trial operation.

As a result, you can see a lot of people queuing, and the rail car is a one-way train every day during the trial operation, so you can only take the rail car every other day when you go to the Bancheng Inn.

The people who arrived at the Bancheng Inn could only live in the Bancheng Inn for one day, otherwise they would need to hire a carriage to take them back from the Bancheng Inn, and they would need to pay for the carriage.

It is easier to return than to take a horse-drawn carriage, and it is not expensive to rest for a night at the inn, not to mention that the "hot spring hall" operated by the Bancheng inn in winter is very popular.

In this way, the inn's business is booming in winter, and many people take the rail car to taste the freshness, but this does not affect their usual consumption.

Every day, there are people waiting at the departure station of the railway, but unfortunately there are too many people to make a reservation in advance, and only those who have a ticket can enjoy the free service.

Li De has been paying attention to the rail car project in the past few days, and the popularity of the operation has directly increased from two one-way trips a day to six times a day in the past few days, and when it goes down, he will stop operating and enter the rail car maintenance.

The increase in the number of trains transports more than 200 people to the Bancheng Inn every day, which directly leads to the business of the hot spring restaurant being full, and the guests have to make reservations in advance.

When the businessmen saw that some of the hot spring pavilion projects were being carried out, they had decided to invest in expanding the business area.

Artificial hot springs are the construction of more hot pools, piled up with stones, and the environment is shaped with high-quality service.

There are even businessmen who directly look at the railroad car and want to pay for it directly and want to provide a private railroad line.

When they learned the price of construction, they stopped, even if the rich did not reach the level of wealth of the Li family, they were not really rich.

"Metropolitan Governor, the 10 million yuan of rail car construction funds have been prepared, is it directly allocated to the blacksmith workshop?"

"The amount is a bit large, so we will allocate it separately, sign a money ticket for one million yuan for them first, and then make the next allocation after the completion of the construction period."

The blacksmith's order this time was very large, and the people in the castle guard had to be cautious, even if they paid off the blacksmith's workshop at once, they couldn't spend the money directly, so it was better to pay slowly.

In a few years, the money will not be spent.

"The next construction is mainly to repair roads, and we must ensure that all the main roads within the strength of Youzhou within three years must meet the standards of Youzhou, and the north and south regions must be carried out at the same time, and from now on, resources must be mobilized to complete the task as soon as possible."

Li De had to grasp the construction, and now the businessmen put all the construction projects on the construction of houses, and there are too many vacant houses in Youzhou at present, which are already in a state of surplus.

Even if you don't need to build a house in the next two or three years according to the development speed of Youzhou, hundreds of thousands of people will have a place to live.

In addition to the previous houses in Youzhou, which were allocated according to registration, people who come again will not divide real estate and land if they want to settle in Youzhou, and everything needs to be purchased with money.

The merchants took a fancy to these, and became more and more crazy after making money after selling some properties, and the land leased by the city guard was in accordance with the procedures, and they couldn't control what the merchants did.

But instead of building a house, Li De needs to build a road first, although he can't stop the businessmen from engaging in construction, he can only directly place orders for them, give them benefits, and let them start building roads.

Taking advantage of the fact that there are no preparations for external activities in winter, things should be carried out after spring ploughing.

The work of the Chamber of Commerce is the busiest, and after Li De finished talking about things, Wei Li will start to convene a meeting of businessmen.

In the office building of the Chamber of Commerce, the conference hall was already filled with relevant businessmen.

"I've heard that this time the metropolitan governor is going to build a big road, I don't know who will win the bid this time."

It is difficult to hide envy when the businessman chats.

As long as the road repair project is responsible for a section, it is a lot of income, and it is more than the money to build a house, and the main thing to build a house is to sell it is money, and if you can't sell it, it is the cost.

Building roads is a one-shot deal, as long as it is repaired.

"Look at the amount of work in this posture, it is not small, but at present, several large engineering teams in Youzhou are in the fishing city, and it will take some time to transfer people back, not to mention the construction of the fishing city."

If you can't finish building a house, you can't sell it, and if you stop building half of it, you won't get anything, and many businessmen who are engaged in this business are also empty.

Now we have to see if the specific situation is in their interests, if not, they can't really abandon the fishing city, there is a lot of investment there.

Wei Li hurriedly came to the podium of the conference room, and said directly to the point: "Youzhou City Shoufu Road Repair Project, including all the main road sections in Youzhou strength, the number of bidders is not limited, and the documents have detailed content, which is now sent to you, according to the previous process, please fill in the bidding documents and send them back here after three days." ”

It was not the first time that Wei Li had presided over such a meeting, and there was not much gossip, and it was enough to communicate with the businessmen by directly stating their interests.

Hundreds of merchants, service personnel distributed thick materials to everyone, and the documents were all self-made with movable type printing, and hundreds of documents were all the same content.

Moreover, the document bags are painted with fire, which is not free, and the merchants involved in the project need to pay 50 yuan for materials every time they pay the usual fees.

They don't care about this money, which is a lot of income for the Chamber of Commerce, which is mainly used for the operating expenses of the Chamber of Commerce.
