商业贸易
The rapid growth of both agriculture and manufacturing industry enabled commerce to flourish and created the need for an improved transport system.
农业与制造业的飞速发展使商业繁荣起来,对于更便利的交通系统的需求产生了。
So as to speed the transport of grain from the rich area around the Yangtze River to the north of the country, the Grand Canal was extended.
因此,为了提高将粮食从富庶的长江流域运送到北方的速度,京杭大运河被延长。
