Building roads is a good deed, a merit, so constructing canals must surely be a good deed, a merit as well.
And so, she decided to provide the silver for the canal construction.
By this time, she really had no intention of bringing out that batch of treasures; she would either keep it as an heirloom to be passed down or quietly use it for herself.
Of course, even if she used it, it would definitely be for doing good deeds.
Money is external property, while Divine Liquid is the most valuable. She was willing to turn this money into Divine Liquid.
Yang Ye, hearing Qiao Xiaomai say this, put down the pen in his hand and pulled out a map from the bookshelf, studying it carefully.
Although Qiao Xiaomai spoke only a few words, she pointed out the key points.
Seafood, mmm, he liked it.
Not being jostled on a journey, he, a prince who had suffered jostling, liked this even more.
Stimulating the economy of the common folk along both banks, this was also fantastic; for the Yang Family’s hold on Mount Jiang to be stable, the common people needed to live good lives.
Convenient transportation of goods, this favored merchants; charging more tolls would mean this money would flow into the National Treasury.
Most importantly, the money for constructing the canal didn’t need to come from the National Treasury!!!
With Qiao Xiaomai, this financial deity around, he had absolutely no reason to worry about exhausting the people and draining the wealth.
This was the best point of all!
He looked closely at the major rivers within Daqi’s territory, reaching out to trace and measure on the map. Seeing this, Qiao Xiaomai put down her shell wind chime and walked over to study with him, “Prince, what do you think of my idea?”
“It couldn’t be better,” Yang Ye made a thumbs-up gesture towards her, “I’ll write to Grandpa Emperor right now.”
Having written previously about the road construction, Yang Wenxiao had already sent orders for preparations to be made in Yuhu.
The bluestone road needed to be built, but also the waterways; progress on land and water in tandem!
Imagining the wonderful scene after the canal was built, Yang Ye’s eyes curved into crescent moons with laughter, “Don’t worry, I’ll definitely suggest to Grandpa Emperor in my letter that he rewards you; your idea is fantastic!”
“No need for rewards,” Qiao Xiaomai shook her head.
She always remembered how Yang Wenxiao had sent two hundred handsome men to cheer her up and besides, her initial purpose was also for the Divine Liquid.
“There must be a reward, rewards and punishments must be clear; it’s a distinguishing feature of our Yang Family,” Yang Ye said eagerly, “Quick, go call over Tong Sanlang, I want him to study this with me.”
Qiao Xiaomai raised an eyebrow, “Why call him? I can provide suggestions as well.”
“The more people there are, the more ideas there’ll be.”
At these words, Qiao Xiaomai raised an eyebrow. She left Yang Ye’s tent and walked to find Tong Sanlang.
Tong Sanlang was doing laundry, her laundry; he now took care of all her personal tasks, not letting anyone else get involved.
Qiao Xiaomai called two palace maids to take over Tong Sanlang’s chores, then she and Tong Sanlang went to Yang Ye’s tent.
