Reborn in 1976, teach him how to be an official

Liu Chuan made an exception and returned home at around 11 o'clock in the morning.

Xiao Yawen laughed and teased, "Oh, the sun is rising from the west, and you're back so early today. Yonghui, Xiao Yu, you're really lucky..."

Huang Yonghui and Yu Ke hurriedly stood up and bowed respectfully to Liu Chuan.

"Haha, Yonghui and Xiaoyu are here too. Yeah, they're wearing military uniforms, looking so smart and dashing!"

Liu Hongyi hadn't seen his father for a long time, and he couldn't help but look at him carefully. He found that although Liu Chuan was in good spirits, he had a lot of white hair on his temples.

He was only forty-seven.

In the prime of life.

It can be seen that the work here in Jiangkou is really hard.

Of course, being the top leader in Chuzhou was also very hard before.

Liu Chuan'an's work style is known for its rigor and meticulousness.

The food was still being prepared, so Liu Chuan sat down to chat.

Ai Xiaoyu quickly brought him a cup of hot tea.

"Dad, I have a suggestion. The Nanjiang Expressway is about to be built. We should immediately approve the project and go all out. We should strive to start construction by the middle of this year and have it completed and open to traffic within two years."

Liu Hongyi didn't waste any time and directly mentioned the work.

This road can't wait until the 1990s.

In Liu Hongyi's memory, the Nanjiang Expressway in another time and space took four years to build. Actually, it was only a little over 100 kilometers long, so if they sped up the construction, it could be completed and opened to traffic in two years without any problem.

Liu Hongyi estimated that the reason why it took four years to build the 100-kilometer expressway was mainly because of lack of funds.

If you really make up your mind to do it and invest the money, two years will definitely be enough.

As the mayor of the special economic zone, Liu Chuan must know about the expressway. After all, the information in Jiangkou is not comparable to that in the mainland.

Liu Chuan shook his head and said, "No money..."

"I've asked around, and if we really want to build the Nanjiang Expressway, it's going to cost at least several billion, maybe even tens of billions."

These days, spending tens of billions of dollars to build a road is absolutely a fantasy.

The Baoshan Iron and Steel Plant, which was built with the efforts of the entire country, had a planned total investment of only 20 billion yuan.

Even though Xiao Yawen, Ai Xiaoyu, Huang Yonghui, Yu Ke, and others usually didn't care much about these topics, they were still stunned when they heard this. They were shocked by this astronomical figure.

Liu Hongyi smiled and said casually, "If you don't have money, you can find a way. The key is policy. And as long as the planning is reasonable, this road doesn't necessarily need to cost that much."

Liu Chuan suddenly became energetic.

He trusted his son's abilities too much.

"Oh, then tell me quickly, what's the best solution? What kind of policy is needed?"

“Open bidding.”

Even though Liu Hongyi was a prophet, he couldn't conjure up money, so he could only think of this method.

Xiao Yawen couldn't help but say, "External bidding? If it costs tens of billions to build a road, who would spend so much money on us for nothing? The road is not his..."

Liu Hongyi smiled and said, "Mom, you hit the nail on the head. Who owns this road? It's very important."

"Although there are no precedents for expressways in our country, they have long existed in developed Western countries. According to the common practice in most Western developed countries, tolls are collected after the expressways are built to repay the loans."

"My suggestion is this: whoever builds the road will benefit."

"Whoever pays for the road construction will have the right to collect tolls. Of course, there has to be a time limit. After the costs are recovered and a certain profit is made, the toll collection rights will be taken back. It can't be given to him forever."

Xiao Yawen had no idea about this and still felt it was unreliable. He said, "Charge? How much can you charge for each car? A few dollars per car, a thousand cars a day, that's only a few thousand dollars..."

Compared with the investment cost of tens of billions, this amount of money is not even enough to cover the interest, right?

Liu Hongyi suppressed his laughter. He didn't dare laugh at his own parents. He patiently explained, "Mom, it's not like that. The Nanjiang Expressway is over a hundred kilometers long. For a small car, the toll is at least twenty or thirty yuan. Not to mention a large truck, it's calculated based on tonnage."
