In the discussion of this matter, besides the emperor and the four grand councilors, there were the Crown Prince, two princes, as well as the ministers of the Ministry of Works and the Ministry of Revenue.
Prince Fu was the first to speak: "The two railway lines we had before were not long, and at that time we weren't sure they would succeed; they were only experimental, so it didn't matter who did the construction. Now that the railway transportation has successfully operated, such an important project should naturally be taken back into the hands of the court."
Jinrong frowned slightly, just about to speak, when Prince Fu turned to him and said, "Sixth Brother, don't overthink it. Seventh Brother is also considering it for the court. Such a grand project, indeed, cannot rely entirely on private construction companies."
