Chapter 1763: Hongmei asks for help

"I don't know this, this matter has not been communicated to the Gao family, let's try it next, see if the Gao family is worthy of harmony!" Feng Yuzhi said meaningfully.

Lin Haoming said to himself: "The Gao family will agree, in fact, I have already agreed, I have raised this matter for a long time, the Gao family must have known, and they did not stop it, so they showed their attitude, and if they don't agree, it will be against me and you, since Cloud City is mainly promoted, doesn't the one from the Gao family want to take a step forward, I heard that he is still a sixth grade!"

"Hehe, what Brother Lin said is right!" Tie Chengye nodded incessantly.

Things were indeed as Lin Haoming expected, when Lin Haoming and Feng Yuzhi found Gao Liangsheng and told him about the matter, Gao Liangsheng immediately agreed, and was willing to send a large number of farmers who relied on the Gao family to help dig the canal, the only condition was that as long as they could pay their wages.

Things are even better than Lin Haoming imagined, but the biggest problem is still not solved, Lin Haoming knows that this is not Gao Liangsheng's opposite, but the long-standing stubborn disease of Chigang City, that is, Chigang City has no money.

On the side of the council of the household house in Chigang City, after deducting the money of all the officials in the coming year, it only adds up to a dozen Nian Crystals and less than three million stone of Huayuan rice.

Lin Haoming will definitely not do the matter of temporarily withholding the money, and taking it back will cause public anger, so under the road that Jia Kai has blocked the appropriation, there are only two ways to go, the first is to ask the rich to borrow, in Chigang City, in fact, it is to ask the Gao family to borrow money, which is obviously not what Lin Haoming wants to see.

The second way is to collect taxes! And this is obviously not an easy way to go.

Although the problem of money was not easy to solve for a while, Tie Chengye still took the people of the workshop to explore the terrain and design the direction of the canal.

After a month of surveying, Tie Chengye designed a canal from the Dew River to the Chiyan River in the north of Chigang City, a total of 800 miles from north to south, which also designed six dams and reservoirs, once completed, then it only takes more than ten years to conceive, and there will be tens of thousands or even more than 100,000 acres of fertile land in the north, even if it is not as good as the Weilin Lake presided over by Jia Kai, but it will not be too different.

However, this project is really huge, and at present, it is calculated that the 800-mile river channel plus six dams and reservoirs will cost at least 130,000 yuan per hour, and this is still under the condition that the project can be completed on time without any accidents or delays.

In the face of such a huge project cost, Lin Haoming also made some difficulties, especially the preliminary project needs to invest at least 300,000 Shijing, Lin Haoming is a little difficult.

Because there is no money and food, this matter can only be done slowly for the time being, so that Tie Chengye will also take the surveyors back to recover first, although the plan will not be too much of a problem, but the next thing is not easy to do.

On the same day that Lin Haoming sent Tie Chengye away, Gao Liangsheng sent an invitation to Lin Haoming again.

Lin Haoming has been busy with Tie Chengye for more than a month, even Feng Yuzhi doesn't have much contact, and at this time, Gao Liangsheng suddenly looked for himself, Lin Haoming thought of only one, that is, Gao Liangsheng may have to make a move on the project.

For Gao Liangsheng's invitation, Lin Haoming naturally would not refuse, and arrived at Gao's house at ten o'clock in the evening.

It's still in the small building of the water pavilion last time, and the dishes are still rich, but compared to last time, this time only Gao Liangsheng is alone.

It was more convenient for only two people to naturally speak, and after a few polite words, Gao Liangsheng immediately entered the topic.

Sure enough, things were exactly the same as Lin Haoming thought, Gao Liangsheng did plan to meddle in the canal.

Chigang City has no money, the Gao family has money, and the Gao family is willing to pay, but one condition is that the Gao family must get the right to rent new land, and it is a thousand years.

Although everything that grows in the field must be handed over to the treasury, but there are gaps in the ten fingers, not to mention this, if there can be 100,000 mu of Ding and other fields in the end, I am afraid that in the past thousand years, the utilization that can be obtained is not less than the amount of this investment, if it is moving some other thoughts, and in this way, the Gao family will occupy more fields in Chigang City, which is not good for Lin Haoming.

Of course, Lin Haoming did not immediately refuse Gao Liangsheng, but just said that he would think about it when he went back, and he did want Feng Yuzhi to discuss this matter, at least after the approval of this plan, there is a countermeasure, 300,000 Shijing can't get it, at least get 200,000 first, and let the project move.

Seeing that Lin Haoming never let go, Gao Liangsheng didn't continue to chase, but he was not as polite as he was at the beginning, and when the meal was almost over, he left.

When he came, Gao Pei came to pick him up in person, because the matter was not negotiated, and Gao Pei did not send him off, but just asked the Gao family to find a coachman to send him.

Lin Haoming also knew that his attitude made Gao Liangsheng a little dissatisfied, but he didn't want the Gao family to be satisfied, and he didn't care about it.

The carriage started and only walked for a short while, Lin Haoming suddenly felt that something was wrong, suddenly jumped out of the car, grabbed the coachman's neck, and said coldly: "Where are you going to take me?"

The coachman was just a very ordinary person, and when he was caught by Lin Haoming, the whole person trembled with fright, and stammered and replied, "Big ...... My lord, I ...... No, it's a red plum...... Hongmei wants to see you!"

Lin Haoming was a little surprised when he heard these words, he didn't know why Gao Fangfang's maid wanted to see him, but when he was drinking today, he remembered the light dance on the water at the beginning.

"Where is she?" asked Lin Haoming.

"That's it...... Just ahead...... Ahead!" said the coachman in fear.

Lin Haoming carefully observed the surroundings and made sure that the coachman was indeed fine, so he let go, and soon after, the carriage stopped at the mouth of a small alley, and in the dark alley, a girl immediately came out, and suddenly got on the carriage.

"Adult!" The girl was indeed Hongmei, and the little girl's delicate face was full of anxiety at this time.

"What are you looking for me?" Lin Haoming asked, but he didn't have much emotion.

"Your Excellency, you ...... You can help Miss!" Hongmei begged as soon as she opened her mouth, as if she regarded Lin Haoming as a savior.

"Save your young lady, why is she being bullied again?" Lin Haoming asked seemingly casually, as if facing a stranger.

"No, it's ...... It's the master who is going to give the young lady away!" Hongmei didn't pay attention or care about this, but said anxiously.

"It was Captain Gao Cheng who chose a husband for her!" Lin Haoming still asked lightly.

"My lord, if the lord chooses someone for the young lady, and can marry the media, even if it is a concubine, I will not come to beg you, but the lord wants to give the young lady to be used as a plaything, I know the fate of such a woman, the young lady is a good person, it shouldn't be like this!" Hongmei cried anxiously.
