Interstellar boss dressed as a peasant girl and became rich

She had participated in the construction of canals, which was an arduous task that was far beyond human ability.

And digging a canal is a huge project, its scale and difficulty far exceed that of building a canal. Although such a project may bring short-term financial pressure to the court and even cause social instability.

There are many examples in history of dynasty emperors causing social unrest due to excessive consumption of people's power, eventually leading to dynasty changes.

However, in the long run, the construction of the canal was beneficial to both the court and the people. It not only enhances national defense but also promotes inter-regional economic exchanges and prosperity.

The opening of the canal will greatly improve transportation conditions and make the flow of goods and resources smoother, thus promoting the development of cities along the coast. In addition, the excavation of the canal can also create a large number of employment opportunities and provide more jobs for the people, thereby alleviating the pressure on farmers to a certain extent.

It can be said that this is a great project that will serve the present generation and benefit the future.

Unfortunately, in today's society, due to limitations in technological level, building a canal will undoubtedly consume a lot of manpower and material resources, and may even trigger public dissatisfaction and resistance. If not handled properly, it may lead to social unrest and dynasty changes.

Gu Yu took another sip of boiled water and said, "Did Uncle Big Tiger ever say that every family must go to the corvee this time? You can still pay."

She felt that she was fine. Gu Wu and Yang would definitely not agree to her going to do corvee service. Gu Wu and Yang were old, so she didn't feel comfortable letting them go.

Fortunately, Qiu Shi and his family's household registration was in her name. If every household had to go, Qiu Shi would have to go.

Anji smiled bitterly and said: "Every household must go to one."

Gu Wu and Yang frowned. They would never come back if their arms and legs were gone. Their daughter had twins, so it would be inappropriate for her to go. What should they do?
Gu Yu saw her parents' expressions suddenly changed and said, "Mom and dad, let Qiu Shi go to our house."

The abilities of Qiu Shi and others are only inferior to that of Pan Yunfei and others. She asked them to come to the county town because she had selfish motives and asked Qiu Shi and others to protect the safety of her family.

It's inconvenient for her, so it's best to let Qiu Shi go.

Yang glared at her and said, "It's not appropriate to go to Qiushi. I'll discuss it with your father. Let's go by ourselves."

The Qiu Shi people were nominally her servants, and the old couple knew that the five Qiu Shi people were Gu Yu's subordinates.

Asking Qiushi to do corvee work for their family was something they couldn't do.

Gu Yu rolled his eyes: They also discussed that the old couple would go alone without looking at their arms and legs to see if they were alive or not.

He called Qiu Shi, who was busy in the yard, to talk about the corvee. Qiu Shi immediately said: "Master and madam, Qiu Shi has a lot of strength, Qiu Shi is willing to do this corvee."

After Qiu Shi and others arrived, one person was left to guard the fast food shop. The other four people either went with Gu Wu to deal with matters in their hometown, or went to the grilled fish shop to busy themselves.

Yang and Gu Wu's hearts are not made of stone, and their eyes are not blind, so they see everything.

Asking Qiu Shi to do corvee work for his family is really impossible!

Gu Wu looked at his daughter, then at Qiu Shi, who couldn't make a decision for a while.

Gu Yu made a final decision: "Qiu Shi is also a member of our family. If it's inconvenient for me, just let him go!"

Gu Wu thought for a long time, wiped his face and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you, let Qiu Shi go!"

The time of year when one does corvee work is often the most troublesome time. In previous years, he and his daughter were the only two hard laborers in the family. The government is not allowed to pay for military service, so we have to bite the bullet.

If you have a scholar in your family, you can be exempted from corvee and land tax. Also, when a scholar commits a crime, he will not be punished easily. If the evidence is conclusive, his status as a scholar must be removed before he can be punished.

Dress well. Scholars can wear long gowns, scarves, and boots, which are different from ordinary people.

It's a pity that the Gu family doesn't have this kind of luck, not even a scholar, not even a child.

None of the three members of their family were suitable to serve in the military. Since Gu Yu said to let Qiu Shi go, let Qiu Shi go. Later, I will ask my wife to cook some good food for the child to replenish his body.

After agreeing to let Qiu Shi do corvee service, he contacted Guan Feifei in the capital that night and said, "Feifei, there is a task for you to discuss now."

"Master, please tell me." Guan Feifei's face, which can only be seen from a distance but cannot be desecrated, appeared in Gu Yu's eyes and said.

Gu Yu knocked on the table and said: "I have received accurate information. The imperial court has started to build the canal. Go and talk to the imperial court. The Chamber of Commerce can provide 500 million silver to support the construction of the canal."

"Take over the right to use the Qingfeng and Qingyuan Fucheng wharves. If we can't negotiate for the two, try to negotiate for Qingfeng Fucheng. From now on, the external headquarters of the Chamber of Commerce will be located in the Fucheng where Guanxian is located."

Building a canal is a major project, and it doesn't take much thought to know that it can cause chaos in the place. As a person with the memory of future generations, I know that the construction of Yuanhe will bring endless blessings to future generations.

She can care about small things, but when it comes to big things, she can still clearly distinguish the priorities and the country she is from.

Although the Daqi Dynasty was not perfect, it was stable enough compared to other turbulent dynasties in history.

After living in Banshan Village for 19 years, she fell deeply in love with this land and did not want to see her home destroyed, let alone flee with her family.

By investing money to control the use rights of a dock, it can be said that almost half of the city's power is in the hands. It is okay to get the use rights of a city dock, but the old emperor probably won't do it with two.

Let Guan Feifei do the talking as much as possible, and win one by one.

As for the external headquarters of the Chamber of Commerce, she initially decided to locate it in the capital city. Now that a canal is being opened and transportation is convenient in the future, it would be more appropriate for the headquarters to be located where she is.

Guan Feifei got the order and started to handle it. Unfortunately, the Chamber of Commerce held one-third of Da Qi's resources in the shortest possible time.

Now he wants to win the right to use two Fucheng piers. Gu Yu is neither a member of the royal family nor a child of aristocratic family. It can be imagined how difficult it is to touch the cake of the upper class. It depends on Guan Feifei's ability.

The wharf in Linfeng County is located in Banshan Village, and there must be various shops around it.

Gu Yu's thoughts turned and she approached Gu Wu and Yang and said, "Mom and Dad, the excavation of the canal will create a large number of job opportunities and provide more job opportunities for the people. This will alleviate the pressure of people's lives to a certain extent... If possible, My daughter wants to finance the construction of Yuanhe."

After more than half a year of training, Gu Wu's horizons have broadened a lot. He knew that if the wharf was really built, the potential for development in the inner and outer areas would be immeasurable.

It's just that many dynasties have built canals in the past dynasties, but no dynasty has been able to complete them. Most of them were half-built and no follow-up was done.

I don’t know what the outcome of this construction will be. Is it feasible to fund the construction of the canal?
After listening to Gu Yu's statement, he did not express his position immediately, but fell into deep thought. Liang Jiu said calmly: "According to what you said, after the canal is built, future generations will really benefit from it."

Gu Yu answered affirmatively: "Of course, the construction of the canal will not only enhance our national defense strength, but also promote economic exchanges between various places and bring more opportunities to the people."
