It's just that big of fun!

Li Yuanai looked at Quanzhou Bay in front of her and was a little excited.

When we came to this era, the manor was designed.

Bashui Villa can be said to be the best in Jiangnan gardens.

In the Suzhou Governor's Office, he planned to build a prince's palace with a slightly magnificent and solemn atmosphere.

In this way, you can enjoy the scenery of Jiangnan in Chang'an, Guanzhong.

In the water town of Jiangnan, you can feel the heroic atmosphere of the north.

Not to mention local characteristic buildings, there will be a strange contrast.

Building a manor can no longer satisfy his desires, and planning a city is a brand new challenge.

This was an idea that came to his mind when he passed through Quanzhou City and came to Quanzhou Bay.

Quanzhou is too poor, and the development trend is completely wrong.

Of course, this is not because officials of all generations are unemployed, but because they are subject to local restrictions.

Chinese people are the best at creating miracles. Quanzhou is not a place to live in peace, and only a few people from Minyue live fishing and hunting through mountains and rivers. However, Chinese people moved south and grew up in this poor mountain and remote area to create a piece of land.

They were scattered on the only land that could be cultivated and survive. Therefore, the entire Quanzhou was said to be a city prefecture, but they were not closely connected with each other.

Instead of forcibly farming in such a place that is not suitable for farming, it is better to gather them together and build an ecological circle around Quanzhou Port.

Just like Bianzhou now.

Since the Luo River was brought into Bian, the center of Bianzhou has moved closer to the Bian River.

Countless houses and restaurants have been newly established on both sides of the Bian River. In just a few years, they have become the fourth economic center second only to Chang'an, Luoyang and Liangzhou.

I believe that in ten years, there will be signs of the Qingming Festival of the Song Dynasty on the Bianzhou Bridge.

Quanzhou has the convenience of shipping, so it should be emulated by this model.

We built coastal prefectures around Quanzhou Bay and made a fortune by using port resources. Just like the Netherlands in history, natural resources are scarce and local markets are small, the Netherlands has become a famous maritime coachman.

As long as Quanzhou Bay is developed, it will naturally attract large numbers of people and other merchants to live there.

Only when this popularity is strong can it expand inland.

When Quanzhou has enough population capital, we will rectify Jiujiuxi.

This is more appropriate than staying in the barren fields that are destined to be unable to get rich.

Li Yuanai explained his thoughts in detail to Li Gongyan.

When Li Gongyan heard the eyes lit up, he immediately realized that the boss in front of him was not just a casual talk, and he had an overall plan.

But he was a little nervous and said, "Such a big move, Quanzhou may not have any taxes to pay in the short term. The funds required are also quite expensive. Does the court support it? Have you ever thought about what if it fails?"

Li Gongyan asked three questions in a row.

Li Yuanai looked at Quanzhou Bay and said, "What is the difference between the current Quanzhou tax and the tax? If the court hopes that Quanzhou will survive in such a tax, the saints will starve to death."

Li Gongyan's old face turned red. Although these words were ugly, they were facts.

In Quanzhou, tax reduction and exemption are applied every year. To put it bluntly, no tax paid is paid as much as the tribute to Chang'an. Even the tributes have to be asked Yangzhou to help take them to Chang'an.

It's a terrible sight.

"As for funds? Still failure? This Gu has never considered it and does not exist." Li Yuanai said proudly: "Gu Chao is rich!"

Failure is the mother of success.

But the shortcut to success is not how many times you fail, but how much capital you have.

Cotton and tea are state-owned enterprises, and their profits are completely controlled by Li Yuanai.

Except for paying basic taxes, the rest is allocated to him.

As long as you stay until the end of the year, are you short of money?

It does not exist.

Li Gongyan was stunned when he heard this, but had nothing to say.

Literary officials like him look down on money the most. In front of their character, money is like dirt.

But if you want to do something, you can't do anything without this "dirty" in your hands.

Why do officials have to join forces with the gentry, or even put down their figure and make friends with the gentry?

It’s not because the gentry is rich and has connections, and can achieve good political achievements with them!

Li Gongyan knew the difference between having money but not having money.

This sentence "Gu Chao is rich", Li Gongyan was inexplicably confident, and he also said with great enthusiasm: "Where should I start?"

Li Yuanai put his hands behind her back and said, "Recruiting sailing talents!"

Li Gongyan frowned and said, "Your Highness is talking about talents such as oar craftsmen, oar stewards, helmsmans. You can rest assured that some of the people of Fujian and Yue in Quanzhou still maintain the spirit of their ancestors, are good at building boats and oars, and are surrounded by rivers and seas, and are not short of such talents."

Li Yuanai shook his head and said, "The governor only knows one thing but not the other. The oar craftsman, oar craftsman, and helmsman are just the most basic. Gu collectively call them sailors. In addition to them, they also need the captain, adjutant, staff, experts in the martial arts world, chef, ship doctor, principal, ship carpenter, surveyor, breeder, lookout hand, drawing master, cannon...uh, Taoist priest..."

He stumbled and almost spoke the gunner.

Li Gongyan was stunned.

Li Yuanai said: "This voyage is not a simple matter. The driver's large ship is sailing on the endless sea. No one can guarantee that there will be no accidents or risks. Therefore, a responsible and capable captain is needed. Merchant ships go to sea from the ocean, and there are many things, and deputy and staff are indispensable. When you arrive in a foreign land or walk alone on the sea, you will inevitably encounter people with ulterior motives. How can you not have good players in the martial arts world?"

"A single sailing at sea, from at least half a month to a year or a half, how can there be no chef who is good at matching food? The ship doctor doesn't need to explain. There is no place to supply at this sea, and the expenses of merchant ships must be strictly allocated. How can the main plan be lacking?"

"The carpenters repair ships anytime and anywhere. The surveyors distinguish between southeast, northwest, water levels, and detect navigation weather. The keepers ensure that all members of the ship have fresh meat to eat at any time. The watchman observes the sea situation, finds islands on the sea, and the mainland to replenish fresh water and various supplies."

"The most important thing is the drawing master. How to sail in the new sea and land is confused. Drawing a safe and reliable route is a top priority."

"It is not easy to open an era. If you have money and are willing to spend a lot of money, you will not have enough money to recruit and train talents."

Li Gongyan was convinced and bowed again, "Your Highness the King of Wu was so thoughtful, and his subordinates admired him so much. The 56,000 people in Quanzhou asked Your Highness to ask Your Highness. All your subordinates obeyed him."

Li Yuanai was happy in her heart, but fortunately she had played in the Age of Discovery and knew something.

Although the Age of Discovery is a game, some of the things contained in it are indeed a microcosm of Western navigation and are worth imitating and learning.

Anyway, I just feel the stones across the river and do whatever I think of. At worst, I will spend more money.
Chapter completed!
