Chapter 2464 Future Plan for Cheng City
"Can you tell me more?" Old Madam Long was confused with Song Chuan's words. She knew that Cheng City was not that bad but was there any need to make more trade routes?
The road that was built from Cheng City to Heng Xing City under Governor Zhang was still functioning properly.
In fact, Old Madam Long heard that there were more roads connecting the few other cities around Cheng City under the project of these officials. These were the side projects aside from their war projects.
No matter what, Fei Yang Kingdom had to continue strengthening themselves. Otherwise, they would never be able to move forward. And it was through various projects that Fei Yang Kingdom was able to grow so far.
"Yes." Song Chuan took out a skin map from his back and then asked, "May I borrow the table?"
"Yes."
Aside from the bamboo scrolls, writing in this era usually used animal skin that had been dried off. But because it was harder to make than bamboo scrolls, there were not many people who would use it.
For map, it would be better to use skin rather than bamboo scrolls because it was easier to draw here. Song Chuan unfurled the map on the table and pointed at Cheng City in the middle. "Cheng City is located here and after the city last expansion after war against Shi Long Kingdom, the city's outer area is now connected to the river that passed by our city. The construction has been done and the river has been integrated into the city. However, there are not many activities done in the river yet."
After that, Song Chuan pointed at the river along the way. Some cities were bordering the river and it also continued towards Yi City and even connected several more cities in the east. "His Majesty ordered construction of ships for the sake of the war against Wei Da Kingdom back then. But in the end, the construction couldn't keep up with the pace of the war and they remain largely unused. But many people felt that transportation in the river is quite convenient and many built more ships.
I heard that some people even used ships to transport goods from one city to another and wanted to open up trade in Cheng City. But in this situation, there would be more people coming to Cheng City and the port might have people from various areas mixed. It can be dangerous if there are no order, so I hope that the reserve soldiers can be used here," Song Chuan explained his idea. Nan Hua blinked her eyes and nodded in approval.
'But it should be a good idea.'
Trade through water was actually a very good idea. If this trade route can be established, many cities' economy would rise, which would make Fei Yang Kingdom flourish in the years to come.
