To be honest, if private construction can be built, Qin Liufu has the heart to build a high-speed railway.

However, high-speed rail is really not something you can build with money. It is different from highways. As long as you are willing to pay for the construction of highways, the official will generally not refuse.

Of course, if you want to invest in and operate a highway, that's another matter.

If you wanted to invest in and operate highways in the 1980s and 1990s, then the official will definitely be very welcome. Now many highways were built by private investment during that period. Over the past few decades, you have made a lot of money by charging expressway fees.

But nowadays, when private people want to invest in and operate highways, they can only cooperate with the official, and the official must be dominant.

But then again, if Qin Liufu really wants to build a highway, he will definitely not go for the operation and toll, but for the benefit of the people of his hometown.

Such a great thing is definitely the official will be happy to see it.

Before contacting the official, Qin Liufu first calculated how much it would cost to build a highway.

Because of the poor geographical location in Bainiu Town, there is not even a second-class highway in the town, let alone a highway.

In Baima Town, which is connected to Bainiu Town, there was already a second-class highway before Qin Liufu was born.

And ten years ago, another highway was added, which made the people of Bainiu Town envious.

On the other hand, Bainiu Town is quite miserable. For decades, there has been only a broken CET-4 highway. It was only three or four years ago that a third-class highway was rebuilt on the basis of this broken CET-4 highway.

In this way, the people of Bainiu Town have been laughing at each other.

If Qin Liufu wants to build a highway, it only needs to be built to Baima Town.

Although the two townships are connected, the expressway toll station from Qin Liufu and their Qinghe Village to Baima Town is at least about twenty kilometers.

Qin Liufu asked the professionals and the answer was that if the mountainous and hilly landforms like Bainiu Town were built, if the most basic two-way four-lane expressway was built, the cost per kilometer would be about 30 to 40 million yuan.

If eight lanes are built in two-way, the cost per kilometer will be at least about 60 to 70 million yuan.

Although the two-way four-lane lanes are enough, with Qin Liufu's always-owned style of doing things, he either does not build it. Once it is built, it will definitely be done in one step, so it is inevitable to choose the two-way eight-lane lanes.

In this way, it will cost at least 12 to 1.4 billion to build this highway.

Even Qin Liufu thought for a longer time. At his current development speed, private jets would soon have to be put on the agenda. Once he bought a private jet, taking off and landing when he returned to his hometown would be a big problem.

So, when building this expressway, he was planning to integrate the runway into it and build it into a "traffic combat readiness" expressway that can be used for aircraft takeoff and landing.

He did what he thought of. He was so willful, so Qin Liufu drove to the town government as soon as possible.

Qin Liufu is a real celebrity in Bainiu Town, and no one doesn't know him, so he met the secretary very smoothly.

When the secretary saw Qin Liufu coming to the door, he was so enthusiastic!

Not to mention the others, Qinghe Village Fruit Co., Ltd., which was founded by Qin Liufu, paid nearly 100 million yuan in tax this year, becoming an undisputed taxpayer in the town.

At the same time, the secretary also made the limelight some time ago.

After all, because of its poor geographical location, Bainiu Town has always been the last place among the 28 townships in Baizhou County.

But now, because of the existence of Qinghe Village Fruit Co., Ltd., the tax revenue of Bainiu Town suddenly soared, becoming the top town among the 28 towns. The secretary, as a parent official, was naturally praised by the county leaders.

Therefore, Secretary Qin Liufu was full of favor.

After both sides had some politeness, the secretary asked, "Boss Qin, are you going to do something today?"

Qin Liufu said: "Secretary, I came here today mainly to talk to you about the traffic issues in our Bainiu Town.

Our Bainiu Town is one of the 28 towns in Baizhou County, but so far, there is only one winding third-class highway. The nearby Baima Town not only has second-class highways, but also has highways. This is really miserable in comparison to our Bainiu Town!”

The secretary sighed: "This is impossible. Who made our Bainiu Town not a good geographical location? Baima Town is located on a major transportation road, so it must be much better than us!"

Qin Liufu said: "Secretary, what does the county mean? Are you unwilling to support our Bainiu Town in building a second-class highway? As early as decades ago, I said that if you want to be rich, you should first build roads. If the traffic is not done well, it will be difficult to make the economy better!"

The secretary nodded and said, "Who said no? Everyone understands the principle of building roads first if you want to be rich.

But it is not easy for the county to use money everywhere, and the financial pressure is also very great.

We can only give priority to those well-developed towns. When those towns truly develop, we have the spare time to support towns like our Bainiu Town that have no advantages."

Qin Liufu nodded and said, "It seems that I want to wait until the county frees up my hands to support us. I don't know when it will be time to wait. It's better to begging for yourself than to ask others!"

The secretary said deeply: "Boss Qin said this to the point. Whether it is individual or collective, it is the same. Instead of asking for support from others, it is better to strive for oneself!"

Qin Liufu said: "Secretary, my ancestors have lived in Bainiu Town for generations and have a special relationship with this land. Now I have made some money outside. It is time to do something for the people of my hometown.

Let’s do this, Secretary, please report to the county and apply for the construction of a highway to Baima Town. As long as the county approves it and provides policy support, then I will bear the money for the construction of the highway by myself!”

"What?"

The secretary was shocked when he heard this and said in disbelief: "Boss Qin, are you telling it the truth?"

Qin Liufu nodded solemnly and said, "Secretary, I mean serious. For so many years, our Bainiu Town has always been the one who doesn't love my uncle. The economic development has always been the last among the 28 townships in Baizhou County. People in the town feel inferior when they go out.

I've really had enough of this situation!

Today, I said that I have to make a name for the people of my hometown, build this highway and see if it can drive the economy of my hometown!"

Hearing this, the secretary was really excited and said with a red face: "Boss Qin, wait a moment, I will call the mayor to come over immediately, let's discuss this matter together!"

Qin Liufu naturally said yes.

Then the secretary picked up the office phone and called directly to the mayor's office.

When the phone was answered, the secretary immediately said, "Mayor, please come to my office. If you have any major issues, please discuss it!"

Less than three minutes after the secretary hung up the phone, the mayor came to the secretary's office, greeted the secretary, and hurriedly greeted Qin Liufu, and both sides politely spoke to each other.

The same thing is said, given Qin Liufu's current status, even the first and second leaders of the town must be polite when facing him.

After the two of them made some polite words, the secretary said bluntly without waiting for the mayor to ask: "Mayor, Boss Qin is rich and does not forget his hometown. He plans to privately invest in the construction of a highway directly to Baima Town, hoping to drive the economic development of his hometown.

I invited you here just to discuss this matter with you and see how to do it to complete this big thing as quickly as possible!"

Hearing this, the mayor's reaction was similar to that of the secretary, first with disbelief, then with ecstatic.

This is a highway. Bainiu Town, which even doesn't even dare to think of a second-class highway, suddenly has to own a highway. Can they not be excited as their parents?

What's more, this is a political achievement for them!
