Yang Cai stepped forward to greet him, and said with his usual envoy, "Please send my greetings to Prince Chu Ze for me. These advanced machines are exactly what we need urgently. They will definitely be able to help us complete the construction project as soon as possible!"

The envoy smiled and returned the courtesy: "You are so polite, Mr. Yang. Prince Chu Ze attaches great importance to the construction of the industrial zone and sent me these sharp tools. I am willing to work with Mr. Yang to build a spectacular modern industry in the near future. district!"

Yang Cai was overjoyed and said repeatedly: "With the great help of the prince, we have nothing to worry about! The day when the industrial zone is completed will surely be a milestone moment in the development history of Fengyang!"

At this time, a dazzling light on the horizon attracted everyone's attention.

Yang Cai looked up and saw the end of the western horizon, the setting sun like blood, and the sky full of clouds.

The dreamlike scene was like a god descending, illuminating the base of the industrial zone below.

Yang Cai's heart was surging and his expression was excited.

He seemed to see that in the not-too-distant future, a modern industrial zone with bustle and roar of machines would rise from the ground.

There are many high-rise buildings and towering chimneys, and the working people are everywhere working hard.

What a wonderful prospect!

For such a future, what does it matter no matter how hard it is?

Yang Cai clenched his fists, his blood boiling.

He secretly vowed to live up to the trust of the prince and the people, complete the construction of the industrial zone as quickly as possible, and make Fengyang's industrialization dream a reality!
The sun shines on the logging machinery, giving off a dazzling metallic sheen.

Under the afterglow of the setting sun, the shiny steel behemoths seemed to be pregnant with the hope of Fengyang taking off.

Yang Cai raised his head and looked up at the sky, staring directly at the bloody setting sun.

His eyes were like lightning, he gritted his teeth, and shouted silently at the sunset: The dawn of industrialization has risen on the other side of the horizon, and Fengyang will start from here and move towards new glory!
At this moment, the world was moved.

The setting sun seemed to be responding to Yang Cai's call, emitting its last bloody afterglow, illuminating the Fengyang land and the broad road leading to industrialization... .

One day, Yang Cai was directing the workers to clean up the land in the industrial zone. A soldier hurriedly ran over and said: "Master Yang, Prince Chu Ze has invited you!".

Yang Cai was stunned and quickly ordered: "Continue the logging work without any mistakes." Then he quickly followed the soldiers to Chu Ze's mansion.

Chu Ze was gathering several important ministers to discuss important matters.

When Yang Cai saw this, he hurriedly saluted respectfully and said: "Prince Chu Ze, I don't know why I have been summoned?"

Chu Ze said solemnly: "How is the preliminary work of the industrial zone going?"

Yang Cai hurriedly replied: "Your Majesty, most of the logging work has been completed. I believe it will be completely cleared in another month, clearing the way for factory construction."

Chu Ze nodded, sighed and said: "Although the construction of the industrial zone is important, it requires too much silver. The imperial treasury is not sufficient, and I am afraid it will be unsustainable."

Yang Cai's heart tightened when he heard this, and he thought to himself: The industrial zone is related to Fengyang's century-old plan, should it be abandoned halfway? Chu Ze looked around at the ministers and said earnestly: "Everyone, the construction of the industrial zone cannot be delayed. For the future of Fengyang, we must find ways to raise funds. What do you think?"

Seeing Chu Ze's sad face, Yang Cai hurriedly offered words of comfort: "Your Majesty, please forgive me. I will do my best to make suggestions for the construction of the industrial zone."

A gray-haired minister said: "Right now, the only ones who want to raise huge sums of money are wealthy businessmen. How about we introduce preferential policies to encourage them to invest in industrial zones?"

When Chu Ze heard this, his eyes lit up and he said: "This plan is very good! But the policy needs to be carefully calibrated, not only to reduce their tax burden, but also to avoid a deficit in the national treasury."

Yang Cai answered: "Weichen believes that 20% of the commercial tax can be reduced within three years. This should be enough to attract investment from wealthy businessmen."

Chu Ze nodded and said: "As Lord Yang said, draft the decree as soon as possible and attract enough investment in the shortest possible time."

Yang Cai was overjoyed: With funding guaranteed, there would be no need to worry about the construction of the industrial zone!
He secretly vowed to live up to the prince's trust and build the industrial zone into Fengyang's shining pearl.

Chu Ze asked again: "The construction of industrial zones requires a lot of manpower. How to solve the problem of food and housing for workers?"

Yang Cai responded hurriedly: "Weichen has started planning to build a workers' camp near the construction site and set up a canteen to solve the workers' daily needs."

Chu Ze nodded with satisfaction and said: "Very good. Food is the most important thing for the people. We must ensure the quality of the workers' food so that they can build with peace of mind."

The white-haired minister added: "After the industrial zone is completed, a large number of skilled workers will still be needed. It is better to recruit a group of smart young people from the private sector and send them to learn skills and provide fresh blood to the factory."

Yang Cai repeatedly praised Shan Shan and said, "My lord, I have thought everything through. When I return, I will start looking for candidates and select the best."

Chu Ze looked around at the ministers and said loudly: "The construction of the industrial zone has a long way to go, and we need to work together. I hope you can fulfill your mission, help each other, and jointly create a better tomorrow for Fengyang!"

"I will do my best to live up to the prince's trust!" The ministers responded in unison.

Chu Ze put his hands on his hands and laughed, then said with a solemn expression: "Yang Cai, starting the construction of the industrial zone is particularly risky, and various unexpected variables may occur. The construction process must be foolproof, are you confident that it will be completed?"

Yang Cai took a step forward, raised his head and said: "Weichen has made careful preparations in terms of site selection, planning and policies for the industrial zone. As long as we work together, we will surely build a prosperous new city that can attract the attention of the world. If anything goes wrong, Weichen Willing to take the blame!"

Chu Ze was overjoyed, stroking his palms and smiling: "With Master Yang's promise, I have nothing to worry about. Master Yang, thank you for your hard work. You can go and summon all the officials immediately to prepare for the opening ceremony!"

Yang Cai knelt down again and said in a sonorous voice: "I obey the prince's orders!" After that, he strode away and ordered his subordinate officials to immediately notify various departments to prepare.

Seeing Yang Cai's enthusiasm, Chu Ze was filled with emotions.

Yang Cai rushed to the meeting hall where the subordinate officials had been waiting for a long time. After taking his seat, he looked around at everyone, including officials from the Ministry of Works, officials from the Ministry of Household Affairs, etc.

Yang Cai slowly said: "Everyone, the industrial zone is about to break ground. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for Fengyang and the Ming Dynasty. I would like to ask you all to perform your duties and work together to live up to your responsibilities." Trust!”

Everyone raised their hands and accepted the promise: "Master Yang has an order, how dare we not do our best!"

The official from the Ministry of Industry was the first to request the order: "I would like to inform Mr. Yang that regarding the water conservancy facilities and road construction in the industrial zone, the Ministry of Industry has drawn up a detailed plan and is waiting for your review."
