"Come spring, we can stock the fish fry," Lin Ziyin pointed at the small river and said, "As for how to allocate them, your own village can decide based on income or contract it out to individuals."
There was a fee for using the small river, but the amount the government offices collected in silver was minimal—it was almost like giving it away.
"Your Highness, when can the water wheels be distributed?" someone, seeing her easygoing nature, boldly inquired.
"What?" Lin Ziyin asked curiously, not understanding.
"Your Highness, the water wheels."

"Rest assured, the price of the water wheels definitely will not increase. Subtracting the labor and transportation costs, each wheel will only profit thirty copper coins, absolutely no more. Of course, if local craftsmen are able to make them in the future, you can definitely price them according to the local rates," Lin Ziyin answered with a smile, knowing that what the common people cared about most were issues that affected them personally. She would certainly resolve them well.
"Your Highness, we tried them, and those water wheels really work well," someone said with a chuckle. "With the channels delivering water, we are no longer afraid of dry land."
