Tian Guizi's words are true.

Before, considering that the Yellow River still had a risk of breaking, although the Ming army occupied the two Huaihe lands and Su Yonglin also decided to set up a central administrative region in the two Huaihe lands, the construction of the two Huaihe lands was quite limited and there were no immigration measures.

The most common thing is to do water conservancy projects and carry out small-scale military farms. I am afraid that when the Yellow River will be breached, the two Huaihe Rivers will be finally built, but they will be washed into white land by floods.

This kind of investment risk is too great, so it is better not to invest for the time being.

As long as the diversion project is completed and the Yellow River flows eastward from Shandong along the old road into the sea and no longer captures the Huai River into the sea, the two Huai Rivers will be safe again, and this prosperous land will definitely be able to restore its former vitality in a relatively short period of time.

The agricultural production income brought by this land will increase the fiscal revenue of Ming Dynasty by another level.

In addition, many areas in the Yellow River Flood Zone in the entire Central Plains that dare not carry out large-scale agricultural construction will also resume production quickly. Ming Dynasty has been prepared to resume production when immigrants live in residences, and is preparing to blossom in multiple places in the Yellow River Flood Zone and make every effort to build it.

As early as five years, as the slowest as ten years, the investment in the Yellow River Project can be recovered with capital and profit. Should the court make a profit or a big profit?

So Su Yonglin was also very happy.

"The achievements are in the present and the future. Once the Yellow River is successfully redirected, the remnant situation of the Ming Dynasty will be broken. After that, the sea will be wide and the fish will leap high in the sky and allow birds to fly. I want to see who can stop the Ming Dynasty from taking off! Guizi, you are the greatest hero!"

Su Yonglin hugged Tian Guizi and excited Tian Guizi.

"I dare not take credit for it. The credit is everyone. There are many people who have made contributions than me. I won't share this credit with them. Just give enough compensation to migrant workers, soldiers, and civilians. In the past five years, they have indeed paid too much."

“That’s natural.”

Su Yonglin had long ordered the Ministry of Finance to study tax reduction and exemption policies for farmers in the Yellow River diversion project area and related people who have made efforts, as well as related material rewards, so that they will never suffer losses. This is the Ming court's commitment to the people.

Su Yonglin kept his promise and never broke his promise.

In the future, the reconstruction of the Yellow River Flood Zone will also have a tax exemption period for the first three years and a tax preferential period for the first five years. After five years, production will be restored and local people will recover after a little savings. This tax preferential policy has been held throughout the dynasties.

"This time, I have to wait here, I have to wait for the Yellow River project to be completely successful, I have to see with my own eyes that our more than five years of hard work has not been in vain, I have to see with my own eyes!"

This time, Su Yonglin decided to temporarily stop in Kaifeng and handle daily government affairs in Kaifeng, and waited until the Yellow River project was completely successful and the Yellow River flowed east into the sea.

If he was asked to return to Zhongdu and wait for news at this time, it would be really embarrassing to him.

The news that Su Yonglin stayed in Kaifeng to handle government affairs was not deliberately concealed by neither Su Yonglin nor Ming Kingdom, so the news quickly spread across the Yangtze River and reached Lin'an and Hangzhou in the past.

In Hangzhou city, Shen Gai, who was planning to expand the army, was stunned after hearing the news.

"The Yellow River diversion is about to be completed?"

Shen should have looked at Zhang Shi who came to report the news to him and said in shock: "It's really going to be completed? It can't be that fast, right? Didn't we expect it would take at least three years before? Why is it going to be completed now?"

Zhang Feng held back the joy in his heart and pretended to be worried.

"At the beginning, we really estimated that there were more than three years left, at least three years, but the news we got is that Su Yonglin stopped in Kaifeng and did not return to Zhongdu, which means that we must watch the Yellow River project successfully completed with our own eyes.

It's hard to say that this is fake news released by the Ming Dynasty. Su Yonglin didn't need to stay in Kaifeng for such a long time for such a news, so it's very likely that this is true. The Ming Dynasty really wants to manage the Yellow River."

The pen in Chen Gai's hand fell as Zhang Feng finished speaking and fell on the table. The ink that had just been sucked in the tip of the pen splashed the table.

"How could it be so fast? It's obviously such a big project, so many things to do, manpower and material resources, which one is not a huge expenditure? This... it's only five years? It can be done in five years? How did they... do it?"

Zhang Shi shook his head repeatedly with a serious look on his face.

"No one knows, this is the strangest place. The construction site in Mingguo is there, and there are only so many things to do. Logically, if there is something strange, they can't hide it at all, but it's calm, and then the news comes directly..."

"This...this...this must be verified! What if it is fake?"

Chen Gai hurriedly said: "Jingfu, please verify this matter with the ambassador of Ming Dynasty immediately. The court must be prepared! Whether it is true or false, the court must know!"

"Yes, I get it."

Zhang Xiao said that he was going to find the ambassador of Ming Kingdom.

"etc!"

Chen should stop Zhang Shi, who was about to leave, looked at Zhang Shi's confused face, and whispered: "Jingfu, if Ming Guo really ended the Yellow River project, what will he do next?"

Zhang Shi looked at Chen Gai and felt that this question was actually quite interesting.

Not long ago, the Hangzhou court in Jiangnan Kingdom learned that the Ming army conquered Sichuan and Shu and destroyed the Shu and Song regime, and also learned that Ma Yongkang, Wu Ting, Wu Gong and others voluntarily surrendered and served as a party to lead the way for the Ming Kingdom.

So much so that the main force of the Ming army controlled the essence of Sichuan and Sichuan without any losses.

At first, the internal meeting of the Hangzhou imperial court believed that even if the Ming Dynasty could succeed in the end, it would lose a large part of its troops in the northern Sichuan region, so they insisted that the northern Sichuan defense line left by Wu Lin for the Southern Song Dynasty would allow the Ming army to have a good drink.

As long as the Ming Dynasty lost enough in Sichuan and Sichuan, it would delay the time for the Ming Dynasty to launch another military operation and buy more time for Jiangnan.

Chen Jio planned to use this time to expand the number of troops that the Hangzhou court could control. It was 50,000 before, but now it is expanded, and it is still no problem to increase by 10,000 or 20,000 yuan.

The situation of the Hangzhou imperial court has actually improved over the years.

The main reason is the intervention of the Ming Dynasty and the stationing of the Ming army. The Ming army was stationed near Hangzhou City, which is equivalent to supporting the Hangzhou court. Local forces are indeed not afraid of the Hangzhou court, but they are afraid of the Ming army.

Relying on the tactic of using foxes to pretend to be powerful, the Hangzhou court successfully maintained its rule over the remaining land in Jiangnan Kingdom, barely maintaining the existence of a court.

Although it is difficult to expand the army now, it is not completely impossible to tighten the belt.

The main reason is that everyone knows in their hearts that Mingguo will go south sooner or later, but the time period for this southward journey is still uncertain.

The biggest decisive factor is the completion time of the Yellow River diversion project.

Since its founding, the Ming Dynasty has determined the huge harm to them by the flooding of the Yellow River. So it started the vigorous Yellow River diverting project not long after its founding, trying to transform the Yellow River back to the former road of the Eastern Han Dynasty. This news was not optimistic about by the "international" society at that time.

At that time, Western Xia, Goryeo and Southern Song unanimously believed that the Ming Dynasty was making fun of its own destiny. If this happened, the people were furious. The Ming Dynasty did not have a strong foundation for its rule. If it was built on a large scale, the Ming Dynasty might be destroyed.

They were waiting for the demise of the Ming Kingdom.

However, the situation did not continue as they hoped.
