Chapter 503 Important Node
"Traveling all the way is not only exhausting, but also the quantity that can be transported is extremely limited. Basically, only [-]-[-]% of the small oranges are transported out of the mountains, and then sold to the surrounding counties. The rest, except for the locals to eat themselves, are rotten in the mountains. It's a pity to use it as fertilizer.

"But even so, there is no way to change this situation.

"And as some young people in the village are attracted by the development of Xiantao Town on the other side of the mountain, this Ganyuan town is also facing the problem of losing its people.

"Once the labor force of young and middle-aged people is gone, transporting small oranges out of the mountains will become a bigger problem. In this way, a large profit chain will be cut short, and many people's lives will no longer be related to prosperity."

After listening to Yan Chujing's explanation, Chi Xinian finally understood the importance of the construction of this waterway in Qi County.

She then pointed to the map: "So, once the tributary of Qixian County above is moved, the problem of too fast river flow at the gate of Ganyuan Town is solved, and the residents of the town can hold boats and transport large quantities of special products by shipping. Go to the densely populated Mao County.

"In this way, it not only solves the problem of selling small tangerines, but also enables local residents to get rich, and also leaves some young and middle-aged people who go to Xiantao County to make a living.

"In this way, a benign development circle has been formed?!"

Speaking of the latter, even a military general like Chi Xinian, who is not good at humanities and economics, also became slightly agitated.

The real prosperity does not mean that there is a prosperous capital under the feet of the emperor, and not all the important towns and fortresses have a prosperous life.But the lives of ordinary people in those remote places can also be guaranteed.

Besides, despite the small population of Ganyuan town, their specialties are very famous.

Even in Beijing, there are also high-priced sales.

If all the small oranges produced every year can be shipped out, it will be a small profit for Dajing.Now the Dajing State treasury is short of money, and it is imminent to develop business...

Many benefits flooded into Chi Xinian's mind.

But she was also curious: "How do you even know a small mountain town in the south of the Yangtze River so clearly? Logically speaking, shouldn't this be considered and actually manipulated by local officials?
"In the end, they just need to report the results to the court. But right now, this matter seems to have fallen on you. You, the emperor, have done too much, right?"

"Actually, it's an accident that I understand these things in detail." Yan Chujing pursed his lips, as if he didn't really want to talk about this topic with Chi Xinian.

But after thinking about it for a while, considering that it was Chi Xinian's question, he still explained the cause and effect: "Because there was a small tangerine among the special products that were paid tribute to the south of the Yangtze River last year.

"At that time...the queen mother happened to be recuperating in the palace due to a bad spleen and stomach. After eating this little citrus, she felt much better, so she specially sent someone to ask me to ask for it.

"But you also know that there aren't many of these things. If you just divide them up, they will be gone. It's also hard to buy outside, so I paid attention to its origin..."

"I see." Chi Xinian nodded slightly.

Yan Chujing roughly summed up the rest of the words in a few sentences.

However, seeing that his face changed slightly when he mentioned his mother, she wisely didn't ask any further questions.

Everyone knows that the emperor was at odds with the queen mother because of his childhood experience.

For him, the matter about his mother might not be a good memory.

In this way, Chi Xinian naturally didn't want to embarrass him.

But before she could figure out how to change the subject, Yan Chujing suddenly said, "Huh? I suddenly thought of a question."
