Chapter 429 - 413 If You Want to Be Rich, Build Roads_2
"There are four or five places where the river channel needs to be deepened, and if we can interconnect the whole river channel, medium-sized ocean vessels could sail directly into Jianzhou City via the Ying River!"
Yang Zhenshan pointed at the Ying River on the map, narrating his plan, "The Marquis has decided to clear the Ying River, and establish docks in Jianzhou City, Ningzhou City, north of Chongshan Pass, north of An Yuan City, and south of Songzhou City."
"Utilizing this river channel, we can directly allow ships to go deep into Chongshan Town, transporting large quantities of goods from Chongshan Town to Tenglong Guard, Liao’an City, Jizhou City, and even Jiangnan. Likewise, goods can also be transported to Chongshan Town."
"Besides the river channel, we also have five official roads that need to be refurbished. The first is the East-West official road that runs through the entire Chongshan Town; this road has always been the lifeline of Chongshan Town’s transportation, and we must ensure its smooth operation."
"The second starts from Fuzhou City, passing through Songzhou City, An Yuan City, all the way to Qinghua Prefecture City."
"The third starts from Black Cloud Mountain, connecting Chongshan Pass with Jing’an Prefecture."
"The fourth starts from Guanshan Pass, passing through Xiling City, Daning City, and reaching Huade Prefecture City in the west of Liaodong."
"The fifth runs from Black Cloud Mountain to Fuzhou City."
"Five official roads, three vertical and two horizontal, plus a water channel, will connect the towns within Chongshan Town and facilitate a thoroughfare between the east and west of Liaodong."
"Some of these already have the groundwork of existing official roads, but some still need us to plan and construct ourselves."
As Yang Zhenshan spoke, the faces of the department heads in the hall grew solemn.
