She Became A Downfall Noble Lady

This year, many places in Yuyuan Prefecture emerged from many years of silence, beginning to buzz with noise and vitality.

After the weather warmed up, many places in Qingyuan County started road construction work. There’s no need to talk about Clear Water Village here, as the construction was based on the original road foundation, expanded and solidified. The funding came from the cow farm and the dairy products store, and although the silver was provided by Jiang Yifan and Jinrong, it didn’t involve the government office.

As for the road construction in Qingyuan County, because it was the county’s road, it needed to connect two existing official roads and also pass through relatively dense villages and towns, so the cost was quite high.

But it was precisely because of these factors, with the incentives previously outlined by Jiang Yifan, that some of the gentry and merchants, enticed by the beautiful blueprint sketched out by Lord Jiang, were moved to invest, and there were actually quite a few interested parties.

It’s not known if it was related to his early years of traveling with his master, but despite his youth, Jiang Yifan was a capable official, well-versed in civil affairs.

Since the end of last year, when the road construction planning began, Jiang Yifan not only offered a variety of priority conveniences to attract investment from merchants and gentry but also sent out minor Yamen officials in charge of engineering and government officials, along with the minor officials lent by Jinrong, to complete the road construction survey and site selection before the end of the year.

Furthermore, with the road construction documents thoroughly prepared by the minor officials from Jinrong Residence and Ye Xinyan, the county government office began fundraising for money as soon as it opened this year, including various discounts, and even sold and bartered the shops along the road. When construction began in mid-February, all the materials, goods, and labor were in place, and the roads were constructed in sections according to the previous plans. The bustling activities ignited Qingyuan County with unprecedented liveliness.

In this, the minor officials from Jinrong Residence played a significant role. After all, these individuals had experience working in formal government departments, and their preparatory work and survey tasks were very accurate, so much so that when the various road sections were connected according to the plan, there were hardly any discrepancies in the end.
