Without the backing of Silver Coin, who would be willing to contribute for free? Even with the prestige of Yang Chaoying, trying to persuade the people to willingly become river workers with reason and emotion...
But this isn't something that can be done in a day or two; it would require several months. Would the people really be willing?
Moreover, Hangtian Prefecture can't even provide food for the river workers now. Even a small amount of money can stump a hero!
"Mr. Gu! It's not that I disagree with this plan, but our Hangtian Prefecture really doesn't have the Silver Tael and food to support this project."
Yang Chaoying finished speaking, looked helplessly at Gu Chengyu, and sighed deeply.
"This depends on Lord Yang! Lord Yang is the Magistrate of Hangtian Prefecture, and gathering Silver Tael for this task is undoubtedly your responsibility."
Gu Chengyu couldn't stand this kind of complete shirking of responsibility. Gathering Silver Tael could offend many people.
