After a while in Shun'an City, I entered the Waterfall Expressway.

"It's comfortable now. This road is really good. I feel a little uncomfortable after the journey just now." Zhao Yuexiang sighed at the contrast between the two roads.

"Yes, Dad, when did this road be built? Why didn't we turn our roads into such a highway?" He Wanrong was very curious. When he came back before the New Year, he took the train back six people to fear the bumps of the car. Fortunately, it was winter and it was wrapped tightly, so no one would recognize him.

"This road has just been opened to traffic. You said it sounds good. It's all like this. How much does it cost? I heard that in order to repair this road, I have to tighten my belt in the money." He Baoguo is also a department-level cadre at least, and he is well informed. He knows how difficult it is to build this road.

"Secretary He said, this road started to be built when Secretary Zhao Zhibang was in office. We drove around before, and basically ran across the southwest. The road conditions were not good. Our road was the first high-level highway in the west." The driver also interrupted at this time. Maybe he was talking about his feelings. He was a driver and ran around, and he knew a lot of roads in many provinces. However, when he was just happy about the first high-level highway in the west, Chen Kangjie's face turned a little dark. "I don't know when to build the next one? I heard that high-level highway is very expensive, and we don't save that much money." He said the following words a little sadly.

Several adults basically have a deep understanding of the situation in their hometown. They have been living in this land for decades. After listening to the driver's words, they all looked at the scenery outside the window and remained silent.

"Actually, we don't have to be pessimistic. This highway is not a real highway, it can only be considered a semi-closed first-class highway. The investment of 120 kilometers is only 33 million yuan, and the benefits are still good. I estimate that the benefits achieved within three years can reach 300 million. Therefore, the government should try its best to build such highways. The investment is a bit large, but the capacity is two or three times that of ordinary highways. Drivers are also fuel-efficient and have less exhaust emissions. They are more environmentally friendly and have better roads. Drivers are willing to pass by and will also bring them.

There are many resources, and it is easy to calculate." Speaking of which, Chen Kangjie felt more deeply than them. As a rebirth of the 21st century, he knew that Qianzhou's expressways did not catch up with the medium level in China until 20 years later. During this period, there were too many development opportunities. Qianzhou has rich mineral resources, rich ethnic customs, beautiful green mountains and clear waters, excellent climatic conditions, considerable military scientific research strength, and simple working people. If you can have convenient transportation, Qianzhou can actually develop faster and better.

"I heard that when you were chatting with Secretary Zhao Zhibang and Governor Huang Zhenhua, I suggested that we build more than 4,000 kilometers of expressways and 200,000 kilometers of ordinary roads?" He Baoguo asked with interest.

He asked it didn't matter, but it shocked the driver. Although Zhao Yuexiang and He Wanrong didn't know what that meant, the numbers were also scary. He Baoguo just said that the car had run 120 kilometers down and the province tightened its belt, and that 4,000 kilometers would not go bankrupt directly.

The drivers know very well that if there is really a 4,000-kilometer highway in the province, it would be a blessing for their drivers. But is it possible? The GDP in our province is less than 50 billion, and it is better to build so many good roads.

"Yes, I have suggested that if the economy in our province needs to develop greatly, transportation is a bottleneck. In fact, it is not enough to have roads alone. At least two thousand kilometers of high-speed railways and more than one thousand kilometers of electrified railways must be built. High-speed railways and electrified railways are the main arteries. High-speed railways connecting various counties are the main lines, and ordinary highways connecting various townships and rural areas are the network." Chen Kangjie said this very seriously. He could not see that he was talking nonsense, nor could he see any signs of jokes.

"What is a high-speed railway? Is it like the Shinkansen in Japan?" He Wanrong also became interested. There is no high-speed railway in China at this time, but He Wanrong has still heard of the Shinkansen in Japan.

After entering the reform and opening up, the relationship between China and Japan was greatly improved. The exchanges between the two sides were very frequent. Many university graduates with opportunities to study abroad chose their destination in Japan. The proportion of foreign investment by Japanese investment was quite high, and Japanese culture also entered China in large quantities at this time. Therefore, the Chinese people's understanding of Japan is very high compared to other countries. As the world's first high-speed passenger railway system that was put into operation in 1961, Shinkansen is also well-known to many Chinese people.

"It's almost the same, but the speed may be faster than the Shinkansen in Japan. In other words, it's necessary to go to Guangzhou within four hours and the capital within seven hours." Chen Kangjie had no good feelings for Japan, so he deliberately pointed out that it was better than Japan.

"Wow, how fast is that? Does our country have this technology?" Zhao Yuexiang sighed first, and then a little suspicious. She was a little disbelief of the current domestic technical strength.

"There is no such technology yet, but I think it will happen soon. I heard that the Ministry of Railways is developing it. There seems to be nothing that our country wants to do. " Chen Kangjie wanted to dispel Zhao Yuexiang's doubts and concerns, so he said so.

In fact, this is true. In the late 1980s and early 1990s, the Ministry of Railways had already begun to organize systematic research on high-speed railways. This is a need of national conditions and a need for future economic development. Socialism naturally has its unique superiority, that is, concentrating efforts to accomplish major tasks.

"But we don't have that much money. It's a highway, a highway, and an ordinary highway of hundreds of thousands of kilometers. The money needed is at least astronomical." He Baoguo thought in his heart that his wishes are beautiful, but reality is cruel. His sigh was also what the driver thought.

"You are right, counting everything, it takes about trillions of dollars in the province," Chen Kangjie said it very easily.

"Wow, trillions!" No matter who doesn't understand mathematics, he knows that the number is huge. This is just a road within the province. The four of them exclaimed a chill.

"Actually, there is no need to be surprised. Even if you practice, you won't be able to achieve it in one year. At least ten or eight years, or even twenty years. Our country is developing rapidly. Wealth is accumulated, and Rome cannot be built in one day." Chen Kangjie further resolved them. If he could not see hope, no matter how beautiful a dream is, it is not a dream.

"Xiao Jie is right. We need to look at problems dialectically. Things in the world are unchanging. Although they cannot be realized in the short term, I think we can achieve them in decades." He Baoguo is worthy of being a government cadre, and he can see farther than looking at problems, but he doesn't believe that he can see that day when he listens to his tone.

"At that time, I will become an old lady." He Wanrong pouted, dissatisfied with Chen Kangjie's painting of big cakes for them, and he could not satisfy his hunger. It was simply out of reach.

"Haha, Sister Wanrong, there is no need to worry too much. When my godfather becomes the mayor or the secretary of the municipal party committee, I will help him build the road of Liushuipan into a highway first, which is twice as wide as the current road. It has four lanes and is fully enclosed, and the speed can reach 100 kilometers." Chen Kangjie said to He Wanrong with a smile.

"How much money can you have? No matter how high your annual salary is, you will not spend your salary in your life without spending your salary." He Wanrong boasted about Chen Kang's bold words, but she was disdainful. This kid only knows how to draw cakes today, and they are all super big cakes that are difficult to see clearly.

When others heard He Wanrong say this, they would laugh heartily, saying that they were childless.

"I don't, but Ouyang Zhenhua has it. I can convince him to come and repair it. Even if he is not enough, there are other consortiums in Hong Kong. Just as I suggested to Secretary Zhao and Governor Huang, Hongyuan International will use the BOD model, and sign a toll contract with the government for a certain period of time. Although it takes a longer time, the cost can still be recovered by collecting tolls. In the long run, it is also profitable. This is a good thing for the government and enterprises and the people. From the perspective of the government, we need to change the development ideas and the thinking cannot be too conservative. Railway facilities such as high-speed railways are led by the central government and need the province to seek support. For high-speed roads, profitable roads, such as high-speed roads, can be left to investors, and the government finance is mainly aimed at ordinary township and basic rural roads." Chen Kangjie led the topic to Ouyang Zhenhua and talked freely.

"Yes," He Baoguo was excited and slapped, "This idea is good. He may not have the strength to build roads in the province. However, if the roads in our city are built in only one billion, it takes more than one billion to connect the three districts with highways. Our city mainly builds ordinary roads to each village." He Baoguo knew Chen Kangjie's influence on Ouyang Zhenhua, and he knew that this was really possible.

"Goddad, what are you thinking about? More than one billion? Don't even think about it without 4 billion. You are not unaware of the geographical condition of Liushuipan. The cost of building a real highway is at least four or five times that of the current first-class road." Chen Kangjie poured a basin of cold water on He Baoguo.

Liushuipan has high mountains and steep slopes. Build highway bridges and tunnels account for almost half, so the cost will naturally increase significantly. Moreover, it is a fully enclosed and standard four-lane expressway with a roadbed width of 24.5 meters, which is even more costly.

"Oh, yes, can he afford so much money?" He Baoguo also realized that the waterfall road is basically built on flat ground, with few bridges and tunnels. Relatively speaking, the cost is much cheaper.

"It should be no problem. I have been to Hong Kong companies, a very powerful company. It should be no problem if I have billions or tens of billions. I may have to ask me to help after the New Year. At that time, I would like to test his opinion." Chen Kangkang did not want to undermine He Baoguo's enthusiasm, so he gave him a reassurance in advance. This is also a foreshadowing for himself to go to the Soviet Union after the New Year. He also hoped that He Baoguo would help persuade Chen Qigang and Ma Fangqin to let him go out.
