Chu Yuxiao nodded his head in satisfaction and smiled,
"Now, I will first start preparing for the reservoir project, as for the flood prevention methods you mentioned, we can plan for them next summer."
"Why not carry out both at the same time?" Su Yan asked, puzzled.
Chu Yuxiao glanced at her and said indifferently,
"These projects all require a substantial amount of money. If we carry out both at the same time, where would we find so much silver?"
"That's true." Su Yan nodded.
She only knew how to speak the words, but never considered the specific implementation, the financial and manpower cost that would be required.
Moreover, with the poor harvest due to drought today, there will definitely be many places in need of silver, making it even scarcer.
Also, a reservoir is not something that can be built just by saying so.
There are still many things to consider: surveying, budgeting, gathering materials, drafting designs, and other such matters.
