Chapter 477 Too Smart Will Scare Others

"Xuanqing City Five-Year Development Plan".

When the little Zhou Ming found a private opportunity to write this 2000-word proposal written in a children's homework book with both illustrations and texts, and handed it to his grandfather Bai Ze.

The old man in his 60s was stunned after only flipping through a page or two.

"Good grandson, did you really write this?
Bai Ze had a look of disbelief, because this development plan book not only had clear views and clear organization, but also put forward several suggestions that were very feasible, and each of them hit the touch point in his heart.

What is even more exaggerated is that regarding the improvement of the processing equipment of the Xuanqingguo processing plant, he proposed three improvement plans and drew three design sketches.

The first sketch was a psychic sheller, which could increase the shelling efficiency of the hard shell of Xuanqing fruit by 1000 times. The disadvantage was that it required a monk, and the cost was high.

The second sketch is a hydraulic dehulling machine, which is driven by water, and the efficiency is increased by more than 500 times, and the cost is not high. The disadvantage is that the factory site must be close to the water source, and the efficiency will be reduced in the dry season.

The third sketch is a wind energy shelling machine. Wind energy is everywhere, and it is windy all year round on higher hills. Using a wind shelling machine can achieve the best balance between efficiency and cost.

Of course, there are animal-powered and human-powered shelling machines that can be used, but the durability is not good, and it is prone to fatigue, so it is not recommended to use it-the shell of Xuanqing fruit is said to be harder than stones.

The three sketches drawn by Zhou Ming seem to be graffiti, but they are actually simple and easy to understand. Even Bai Ze, who doesn't know much about mechanical principles, can see them clearly at a glance.

The most remarkable thing is the grandson's economic acumen.

And the amazing whimsy in his mind.

After calculation, the grandson found out that about 800 million Lingcoins would be needed to build an 500-mile road leading to the nearest Huanluan City, so he proposed the idea of ​​using [-] million tons of Xuanqing fruit in exchange for a "Xuanqing Highway" within three years .

How is it achieved?
Divided into three steps.

The first step is to mobilize all the Bai family army to act as a caravan, transporting Xuanqing fruit (unshelled) out non-stop. If the road is blocked, or mud pits and ditches are encountered, the Xuanqing fruit will be dumped on the ground and returned immediately.

In the second step, after the Xuanqing fruit arrives at Huanluan City, they don’t sell it for any money. Instead, they buy gravel and cement directly from the builder, and start construction from the other side of Huanluan City, leading to Xuanqing City.

In addition, Xuanqing City is not idle here, and a large number of people in the city have to be mobilized to collect a large number of fallen Xuanqing fruits or processed and broken fruit shells, lay the foundation, and wait for the cement to be poured.

The third step is to build roads by all the people. Soldiers and civilians will contribute together, and all monks will also be dispatched. As long as the million people in Xuanqing City are fully mobilized, the cost of building roads can be greatly reduced.

If there is still a shortage of funds, then issue road construction bonds, set a higher annual interest rate, and even use the right to collect road tolls as collateral to raise private funds of about 200 million Lingcoins.

Finally, after the road is successfully built, we will start attracting investment and attract discerning businessmen to invest. We will give preferential policies in the early stage and collect certain taxes in the later stage. If Xuanqing City can export more than one million tons of Xuanqing fruit every year, Xuanqing Qingcheng's annual financial income is definitely more than ten million spirit coins.

But Bai Ze has a different opinion on attracting investment. Although there are many Xuanqing fruits in Xuanqing City, they are rare outside. In some big cities, they sell thousands of spirit coins per catty. To earn this money, wouldn't Xuan Qingcheng suffer a great loss?
Xuan Qingguo is the only trump card that Xuan Qingcheng can play, and no one can be introduced to participate. This is Xuan Qingcheng's exclusive food.

"If we don't bring in businessmen, it will be difficult for us to make money."

"Xuanqing City has not joined the Wancheng Kingdom. No matter which city our caravan passes through, the taxation departments of these cities can extract heavy taxes at will. The 5% road tax regulations formulated by the Hundred Cities Alliance have long been abolished. We Even if half of the property is taken away by other cities, no force will intervene, and no force will stand up to protect our interests."

"Who made us the free city?"

"The only solution is to attract investment."

"In addition, we need to create several distinctive tourist attractions to attract tourists, vigorously develop tourism, and use tourism to drive economic growth."

The tourism industry in Wancheng Country has appeared very early, and even became an important part of the economy of some cities. After all, the world is very big, with developed and convenient transportation, people with money and leisure all want to go outside.

In addition to the tourism industry, Xuanqing City can actually take advantage of Liberty City, which is not under the supervision of the Wancheng Kingdom government, to engage in some dirty gray industries, but after thinking about it, Zhou Ming still ruled out these industries, To attract the attention of Wancheng Kingdom for no reason, and secretly dig into the corner of Wancheng Kingdom, is to seek death.

When the grandson in front of him spoke clearly and logically, Bai Ze was even more shocked.

This grandson is only three years old.

Yet displaying such astonishing intelligence, this...

Bai Ze even wondered if his grandson was possessed by some monster.

But thinking about it again, this grandson has been smart since he was a child, and it surprised him far more than this time. He can speak at six months, read and write at one year old, understand articles at two years old, and read a lot of books at three years old... In addition to the usual The image of being well-behaved, sensible, and clever has aggravated his nerves time and time again.

This time, it was just a little exaggerated.

"Good grandson, your plan is very good. Grandpa will refer to it carefully. If it is feasible, he will implement it according to your plan."

Putting his grandson on his lap, Bai Ze said kindly, kissing his fair and tender face.

He really loves this grandson to the bottom of his heart, and believes that if this precious grandson inherits Xuanqing City in the future, he will definitely be able to create a greater glory in this city than his ancestors including him.

"Good grandpa."

Zhou Ming nodded obediently, and made a request: "Grandpa, if you accept the plan I gave you, don't tell others that I came up with it, just say it's Grandpa's proposal." You figured it out yourself."

"Eh? Why?" Bai Ze asked with a puzzled face.

"Because I'm too young, if people know how smart I am, it will scare them, which is not good."

"Pfft~"

Bai Ze almost spit out, this grandson has really become a genius.

Asked him, "Don't your parents tell you?"

"Well, grandpa, you alone should know about this kind of thing. Grandpa must keep it a secret for me." Zhou Ming blinked his round eyes, and said in a soft voice, the soul of thousands of years was so cute Come, it is also a suffocating operation.

"Grandpa will keep it secret for you."

Bai Ze narrowed his eyes and moved his face closer.

"Well~"

　The computer is finally done, more tomorrow
