In the evening, Li Yi and Sanzi and a few craftsmen huddled together, discussing things about glass.

"Sanzi, how many days can the greenhouse glass be completed?"

After this period of exercise, the third son has become a lot more energetic, and he has a capable temperament on his body, and even his speech is more organized, and Li Yi is relieved to see it.

The third son silently calculated and said, "Three days, three more days will be fine!" ”

"Well, your next task is to renovate the glass on the windows."

"Glass in the window?" The third son's eyes lit up, he had long thought about how cool it would be if he hit the glass against the window, and how bright the room would be? In the future, if you want to see the scenery outside, you don't have to open the window anymore, especially in winter, if you want to see the snow scene, you can only look outside, and now you can see it in the house lying in the bed.

"But ......"

"But what?"

The third son hesitated for a moment and said, "Young master, is this capital too high?" ”

"Money?" Li Yi was shocked, numb, after making the glass at that time, he only cared about being happy, forgetting the cost, he always felt that the cost of glass was not high in modern times, but he forgot that this is ancient, not the same day, Li Yi swallowed and spit, and looked at the third son with some apprehension. "Sanzi, how much does it cost to make glass during this period of time?"

The third son was stunned by Li Yi's gaze for a while, but what should be said still has to be said. "Young master, including the cost of research waste, a total of 60,000 yuan!"

"How much? 60,000! Li Yi almost didn't have a mouthful of old blood spurting out, paralyzed, this time he lost a lot, 60,000 guan, how much money did he have in total, he spent 60,000 guan at once, this is simply grabbing money, Li Yi for a moment, even had the idea of snatching back all the glass sent out, but then he stopped, if he grabbed it back, he would lose even more, this vegetable greenhouse is estimated to earn more than 100,000 guan, and the cost of glass will be about 50,000 guan, just 60,000 guan is not only the cost of glass, but also the cost of research and development, These should be Li Yi's own, so the cost of the greenhouse is about 50,000 yuan.

However, in this way, after deducting the distribution to the people, there is not much left in the yamen, and a little advantage is that this vegetable greenhouse can be used for many years, which is a long-term input cost, and for a long time, Jinling can form a monopoly advantage over off-season vegetables, so this money is too worth it.

However, the money of Jinling Water City is a little difficult to do, Li Yi originally thought that he could use the money of greenhouse vegetables to build the water city, and now the cost of his investment is so high, naturally it can't be calculated like this, not Li Yi is reluctant, public is public, private is private, Li Yi's other purpose for the development of Jinling is to form a model, a model of development and transformation of the city, Li Yi's purpose is ultimately to transform the entire Jiangnan, so Li Yi wants to find a model that can allow other cities to learn from the past and adapt measures to local conditions. Find out how you develop.

Therefore, the construction of Jinling must be clearly distinguished between public and private, and the advance payment can be made with his own money, because when the time comes, this can be borrowed from the bank, which is the same meaning, but if there is a loan, there must be repayment, so Li Yi himself must take back this money.

In this way, the money for the construction of the water city has to find a way by itself, and now the budget of the water city is more than 40,000 yuan, if you add glass, it is estimated that it will take about 70,000 yuan, even if you compress some costs, it will take 60,000 yuan. You have to figure out how to make this money.

Li Yi walked around the room, stopping from time to time to write and calculate, and then felt that it was not possible and gave up again.

Suddenly, Li Yi's eyes lit up, and he actually forgot about real estate.

Isn't Jinling Water City real estate after it is built? And it is also a high-quality real estate, as long as Li Yi's project is completed, then there is no worry about not being able to sell, you must know that the house built by Li Yi not only uses cement and glass, but also the decoration is first-class, plus the gimmick of Qinhuai Water City, it must be sold at a good price, let alone 60,000 guan at that time, even if it is 100,000 guan, Li Yi can find a way to get it for him. Trapping those nobles' money, Li Yi has no psychological burden at all, besides, as long as the person who buys the house does not die, it is certain to make money.

Thinking of this, Li Yi breathed a sigh of relief, numb, and broke out in a cold sweat.

"Young master, is the glass still made?" The third son looked at Li Yi with some apprehension, at that time Li Yi asked him to let go of his hands and feet, but he didn't dare to spend 60,000 yuan at once, he always wanted to discuss with Li Yi, but Li Yi has been busy, and he ran back to Chang'an some time ago, and finally Changle gave him the idea to let go of his hands and feet, and he insisted until now, but looking at the current situation, obviously the young master didn't know, and he was also thinking, is he in trouble again?

"Make, why not? All windows in Qinhuai Water City must be replaced with glass! ”

Li Yi waved his hand and said domineeringly.

Seeing that Li Yi was not to blame, the third son breathed a sigh of relief, but a new problem came again.

"Young master, the money is not enough!"

The corners of Li Yi's mouth twitched slightly. "I'll find Bingyu and ask for more money later!"

"Understood!"

After talking about the window, Li Yi turned his gaze to the craftsmen.

"Guys, I have a few small objects for you to study for me."

......

It wasn't until an hour later that the third son rushed back with someone, but when he left, he left with a receipt of 40,000 yuan.

At night, it is as cold as water, and the soft moonlight shines like starlight, which is cold and beautiful.

Li Yi sat on the stone steps in the courtyard, his heart clear.

The three daughters also came out and sat beside Li Yi, so quietly sat with Li Yi.

For a long time, for a long time.....
