Chapter 307 Coachman

The canal transport is indeed not as simple as ordinary business. If someone really controls the canal transport, it is almost equivalent to controlling the country's economy.

Therefore, the emperor was a little scared after reacting. In fact, it was very normal to have such a reaction. After all, everyone looked at things differently.

Ministers could only see that this was equivalent to dependent on the safety of the capital on a civil organization, while what the emperor had seen before was the benefit of the people brought by reform.

But compared to benefiting the people, the country is undoubtedly more important. Even if you are as wise as the current emperor, you have said this, "The people will be arrogant and elegant when they have nothing to do, and will be easy to be sent to work hard."

Using this as a reason, a large-scale construction was launched.

So, after all, any emperor has the possibility of becoming bad, even the wisest emperor is no exception.

However, today's emperors still cherish their reputation, so once the ministers say something wrong, he can change it immediately. However, in all dynasties, those who can do this alone can at least become a wise ruler.

But one day, at noon the next day, Yaoyao and Li Chengqian received a letter from the emperor.

What the letter said is that the canal transportation cannot be completely handed over to the people, otherwise it may affect the national destiny.

Just as Yaoyao and Li Chengqian were reading the letter, the emperor naturally held a meeting of prime ministers. On the one hand, it was handed over to the women's Thirty-Two Lefangs to do it. The efficiency of the canal transportation can be increased ten times compared to the past, and the grain required to be collected every year will be greatly reduced.

On the other hand, it was mentioned by Tang Jian, the Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. If you hand this over to the 32 Women's Music Floor to complete it, it is equivalent to sticking out your neck and handing it to others, it depends on whether they want to chop it up.

The Tai Chi Palace, the Secretary of the Central Committee, and the Minister of the Shangshu were all there.

The Secretariat Ling Yan Lifu, Yang Gongren, the Secretariat left and right servants, Li Mu, Duke Wei Guo, Feng Dehong, and the subordinate ministers, one was Pei Ji and the other was Chen Gui.

But to be honest, almost every of these people has a title of Duke. Moreover, they may not only have one position, but also hold positions such as the procuratorate. However, these people gathered here at this time, by the way, including Wei Lin, the Censor of the Censorate. These seven people are the highest power center of Beichen at this time.

But... His Majesty had never told them about this before, and he only came up with it at this moment. This made them not know what to say for a moment. Also, isn’t this woman’s Thirty-Two Lefang the property of the Crown Princess?

They are all family members, Your Majesty, what are you worried about? Or...

Feng Dehong also felt something was wrong, after all, he was part of the Crown Princess.

But he also has a habit, that is, he never hangs himself on a tree.

Therefore, it also expressed its attitude: "Your Majesty, I think that the words of the Minister of Civil Affairs are not unreasonable, and this is indeed not good."

What he wanted to express when he said this was - look! Although I supported the Crown Princess very much before, I really had nothing to do with her.

The one who responded the most was naturally the Censor Wei Lin, who said: "The cabin transportation is the lifeline of my north and south. How can outsiders control it?"

Yan Lifu considered the problem from a new perspective, "But what if it really can increase the efficiency of canal transportation ten times?"

Pei Ji: "To be on the safe side, is it better to have the imperial court lead the way?"

Chen Gui: "I think..."

Just as everyone said something, I said something, when the emperor saw Duke Wei Li Mu not speaking, he couldn't help but ask: "What does Duke Wei think?"

Duke Li Mu of Wei moved because he was kicked and replied: "Your Majesty, what are you asking just now? I didn't hear it clearly."

Emperor: "What I ask is, what do you think about the canal transportation?"

The Duke of Wei then said: "The thirty-two women's music shops are Mavre."

The Duke of Wei means that the Women's Thirty-Two Lefang is a person responsible for transportation, so it is as exaggerated as everyone imagines. Moreover, with their current canal transportation, even without the support of the Women's Thirty-Two Lefang, it is not easy to organize it?

How was the canal transport carried out in this era? First of all, every household built a small boat, and after each took the task, they rode the small boat all the way north, and their respective boats were of different sizes.

In other words, this is actually no different from renting a mediocre service, but of course, the government will send people, and even hire the bow to lead the boats to the north together.

This is why ten ships sank eight ships as soon as they arrive at some dangerous river sections, because they are all non-professional teams.

Many of them are temporarily recruited, and at most they may only use small boats to fish, but they may not be transported by transporting food.

And the little wolfdog is like this bow with rich experience in river transportation, but...

Even so, even if there are very experienced people, due to various realistic factors, the food transported to Chendu will still be lost by four-fifths.

Not to mention...

Because the food is in bulk, that is, it is placed directly in the cabin. If you encounter wind and rain, you may be able to blow away half of the wet and sprout just on the road.

However……

Has no one ever thought about reforming the canal transport? The fact is that no one knows how to reform.

You know, there are not many people like Yaoyao who have a forward-looking look.

Who would go around the entire canal transport route and patrol everywhere without any trouble, and if you haven't even been to the ground, how can you propose a reform plan?

You know, most of the ancient times were empirical science.

When a person passes the imperial examination or becomes a senior official, who will do such a low-key thing?

What's more, the length of the entire canal transport channel is not shorter than that from Chendu to Lingnan, and there are definitely two or three thousand miles.

Whoever is fine will run around two or three thousand miles, sum up experience, and reform the canal transportation.

Then when will we find a way?

I must be hungry. Guanzhong has been out of stock for a long time, so I think of reforming.

Now, Guanzhong is in a pretty good situation.

Although it is a little compact, Guanzhong has still had a small harvest in recent years, and no one would have thought of reforming the canal transportation.

Let’s get back to the point.

The meaning of Duke Wei Guo, we can't say how good we do, so letting professionals do professional things does not seem to be a bad thing. More importantly, even if there is no Women's Thirty-Two Lefang, as long as the rent and mediocre regime in Beichen is still there, they can restore the previous canal transportation.

In other words, there is no possibility of threatening women's Thirty-Two Music Square.

The Woman Thirty-Two Lefang is just a coachman who has a good horse and has an exquisite carriage.
