Vol 2 Chapter 130: Cutting a canal

"Wait a minute, I still have a problem." Henas still asked with a puzzled look. "When I was riding a carriage yesterday, I paid three silver coins at a time. If you said that the urban public transportation system is a municipal welfare measure, the price is a bit too high? When you negotiate with Satsuma Satsuma, Is there no limit to the price?"
"Of course there will be a limit. This is the price we have specified after we have counted down with President Pompeii. After all, how can we make welfare measures, and let the Philsons have money to make money? Otherwise, the Philson car Why did Ma Xing agree to sign this agreement?" Xu Yi is naturally.
"But I think... the price of the residents of Bangta City may not be affordable?" Hainas frowned. "One glimpse is three silver coins. Even one round of one day will be six silver coins. Although it is a little cheaper than the normal long-distance carriages, it will be close to two gold coins in one month. This is too much. I don't think those workers and ordinary people can afford it."
Xu Yizhen smiled: "Hainas, you still stay in those old ideas. What do you think the average monthly income of ordinary residents of Bangta City?"
"How many?"
"Tell you, don't be scared. According to the statistics of the city government last month, the average monthly income of ordinary residents in the city of Bangta City is more than ten gold coins!"
"This is impossible!" Henas was shocked to stand up directly from the chair.
The average monthly income of even Anweimar City has not reached ten gold coins. How can Bangta City exceed 10 gold coins?

"Why not?" Xu also smiled at Henas. "Because you came from the city of Anvilmar, are you unwilling to accept this fact?"
"Not that I don't want to accept it, but it is impossible at all!" Henas shouted. "If you tell me that the average monthly income of the workers of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce is more than ten gold coins, I believe that even you said that all the workers in the other chambers of the city counted more than ten gold coins. I also believe that you can say that all of Bangta City is ordinary. The average monthly income of residents actually exceeds ten gold coins, and I don’t believe in killing them!"
Xu also sighed and shook his head, and looked at you with a look of ignorance: "I thought you ran this way in Bangta City for so many days. How much did you know about the situation in Bangta City? Still don't understand anything."
When Heinston angered, "Do you say that I don't understand? I think you are bragging!"
"Blowing the cow?" Xu also smiled and said: "Well, since your news is so outdated, then I can only educate you, lest you go back to write this report when you are embarrassed. Cough... Listen well, first I want What tells you is that the average salary of our new Feishang workers is already more than ten gold coins per month. Just last month. According to the financial statistics made by Sebastian a few days ago, it has broken through the big 20 gold coins. turn off."
"Twenty gold coins? Average?" Henas looked at Xu Yi with an unbelievable expression. "You...when you went to visit the president of other chambers of commerce, they all said that you are defeating me and I still defend you. I don't think you are really defeated! You actually give the workers such a high salary? Even if your Chamber of Commerce is very profitable, Can't you do that?"
"Say me lose home?" Xu also snorted. "These guys are no worse than me. The presidents of the chambers of commerce did not tell you. In fact, the workers in their chambers are not paid less than our new flyers. Even now, there are already several chambers of workers whose salaries have exceeded us. Chamber of Commerce. We have not been the highest paid Chamber of Commerce in Bangta City."
Hainas stared at Xu for a while, thought about it, re-doing it, frowning and shaking his head: "I really doubt if your Chamber of Commerce in Bangta City is crazy, your new flying business will open to the workers. The high salary is that your president likes to lose, and what do they do with such a high salary? Is it the same as you?"
"No way, it is really Bangta City, the manpower gap is too serious now. There are a lot of work waiting for people to do, but there is always no one. You are wandering around in Bangta City these days, have seen which hands and feet are normal. Is the person not at work?" Xu asked.
Henas reminisced for a long time and shook his head. "I really didn't see it. It's very strange. Isn't there really so much work in Bangta City now? It is clear that the people in Bangta City are now It’s several times more, and there’s still a shortage of people working?

"You shouldn't ask me this. You should ask the president of the Amrit Chamber of Commerce." Xu also laughed. "Speaking of lack of people, our new Feishang Chamber of Commerce is actually okay. Because there are many dwarves and elves to add in. Instead, the Amrit Chamber of Commerce is really lacking people. During this time, President Cruise will see you every time. I have to complain to me that they are understaffed. Do you believe that if you give him enough people, they will even go to the Kingdom of Rulson to build roads?"
"Well... he and I mentioned this when I visited President Cruise yesterday." Hainas nodded. "He said that President Newman would have liked to invite the Amrit Chamber of Commerce to the Kingdom of Rulson to help build a road with a minimum of 500 kilometers. But he really didn't have enough manpower, so he could only refuse. He also said that this is a big profit. A good opportunity for the pen, so it is a pity to miss it."
"So, hey. You see, now everyone in Bangta has a job to do, and the salary of each job is very high. So what is unacceptable for an average monthly income of more than ten gold coins?" Asked again.
Henas swears. After thinking about it, I sighed a little: "It seems that you are right. It is indeed that I am bound by the old concept. I always thought that if I count the income, it should be the highest in Anweimar City, but I did not expect Bonta." The city has already surpassed the city of Anweimar. More importantly, everyone in Bangta City can find a job, but there are a lot of people in Anweimar who can only do nothing... This is far worse. ""
"No, you are wrong again." Xu also shook his head. "In the end, Anweimar City is, after all, the capital of the kingdom. In many respects, there is an advantage that Bangta City can't compare at all. If the King is willing, he can easily surpass Bangta City."
"This is not something we can discuss." Hainas shrugged and recorded all the words that Xu also said on the book, and then continued to ask: "Well, except for the new urban public transportation system." In addition to the initiatives, what else is worth mentioning?"
"Except this thing..." Xu thought about it and his eyes turned. "Tell you a more exciting one."
"More exciting?" Hainas's eyes brightened. "What is it?"
"After my deliberation with Count Satsuma, I finally decided to expand the river surface of the Sandy River and unearth a canal connecting the Sandy River and the Rum River."
"what?"
###
the next day. Xu Yi and Count Satsuma stood side by side on the north bank of the Sandy River on the eastern side of Bangta City and looked at the horizon in the north.
"Prince, Xu Hui, you see, if the Sandy River digs out from here until the Rum River, the terrain is gradually sinking. And there is no big mountain barrier in the middle. Compared with it, I think it is the easiest to dig. A line of the canal."
Pointing to the two people in the distance, it is the president of the former Porter Chamber of Commerce, Smilla Porter.
Compared with the Sui and Tang Dynasties when Xu also rescued him from the river, the current Porter has a lot of skin, but it is full of vitality and confidence. The whole person seems to have returned to the mood when the Potter Chamber of Commerce was at its peak.

How long is this line?
asked the Count of Satsuma.
"I probably figured it out, no more than fifty kilometers." Potter replied.
"Fifty-kilometers..." Count Satsuma nodded. "In fact, it seems that the Sandy River and the Rum River are not far apart. If you can dig this canal and connect the Sandy River to the Rum River, Compared to the rivers in Bangta City, it will make a lot of prosperity."
"The master of the city, this is not just a lot to describe." Potter was a little excited.
The Sandy River can eventually merge into the Skain River downstream. It can also be regarded as one of the most prosperous rivers in the mainland, but the Skain River has been controlled by the Marlow Empire and does not allow ships from other countries to pass. So the Sandy River has never been able to use it. But letting the Sandy River connect the Rum River can make the Sandy River join the largest river in the whole continent, and the ship in Bangta City can pass. Sandy River runs to almost every place on this continent!"
Speaking of this, Potter looked at Xu Yiyi, and there was a hint of gratitude in his tone.

Before I saw the Rum River every time. I had thought about how wonderful it would be if I could connect the Sandy River to the Rum River. But I know it’s almost impossible. So at that time, I could only use this as an illusion. But Xu Huichang told me that this is not an illusion, but a fact that can be realized! To be honest... I heard that when President Xu said this, I felt that it would be The length is a bit... bold and crazy."
The Earl of Satsuma laughed: "This guy's idea has always been bold and even crazy. But Potter president, you have to admit. This guy is always able to realize his idea, isn't it?"
Potter nodded hard. "It’s because Xu is always able to realize his ideas. I will listen to his arrangement this time and spend several months exploring all the nearby rivers. But Xu Hui, It is extremely difficult to dig such a canal. The money spent may be an astronomical figure. I think this money alone may not be able to be obtained by our Bangta City."
"This is also a problem I am worried about." Count Satsuma nodded and turned to Xu Yixiao. "But I understand this guy. If he is not sure, he will not be so enthusiastic. Let me, Xu Yi, this time you intend How to solve this problem? Or do you want to fly all the money for the canal? If that is the case, then I must thank you very much."
Xu Yi haha ​​smiled and quickly waved his hand: "I hope that this canal will cost at least several million gold coins. Our new Feishang Association can't afford it. But I can't help with the money, but I am still saving money. Can help."
"Oh? Let's listen."

Recently, our Chamber of Commerce has made a breakthrough in the development of large-scale construction machinery and has successfully developed a large-scale magic excavator...
