Excellent little farmer

I said with a smile: "Director Huang has told you two before that Xinhua Highway is just the first step in the construction of our Lingtai Highway. This year, next year and the year after will be an unprecedented three years in the history of our Lingtai Highway construction." , the county has already made plans to build a backbone highway network across the entire Lingtai County within the next three years."

Both guys exchanged slightly sarcastic glances, but they didn't show it in front of me. This is the first step in highway construction. Anyone can say this, and everyone wants to do it. Who can’t just talk about it?

"It seems that the two elder brothers don't believe what the younger brother said. Yes, it is not realistic for Lingtai County to spend more than 10 million to build the county seat to the mouth of the river. Lingtai's finances cannot support this. It's a big project, but I never expected to get financial support from the mausoleum, just like this new flower road."

As soon as I said these two words, the expressions of the two people became richer and their eyes became quieter.

"The road from Hekou to Lingtai County will definitely be repaired. It's just a matter of early repair and late repair. Some time ago, Director Huang came to Lingtai for an inspection. You two must have known about it. Although Director Huang did not agree, we will start construction from Hekou to Lingtai this year. The county road is not completely blocked and we won’t build it next year. My idea is that instead of building it next year, it’s better to build it this year.”

"Uh! County Magistrate Ye, with all due respect, if you plan to build the road from Hekou to Lingtai County this year, where will the funds come from? That's not a small sum." Some short, fat men with an urgent surname interjected and asked.

"It's not just the road from Lingtai County to Hekou, but the road from Lingtai to Pengshan County." I said lightly.

"What? From the mausoleum to Pengshan?" The two guys looked at each other. Is there something wrong with County Magistrate Ye in front of him? You are only the deputy county magistrate of Lingtai County, how can you still take care of things in Pennsylvania?

"The 60-kilometer section from Duilingtai to Pengshan is the same standard second-grade cement road." I nodded with a smile, but there was no joke in my expression.

Both guys took a breath. The investment for 60 kilometers of standard second-grade cement pavement is about 25 million, which is really a considerable project in the Huai'an area.

"I have contacted the Pennsylvania authorities, and they are also willing to open up the main transportation line from Pengshan to Lingtai. The only problem is funding. I have an idea that Huai'an and the Pennsylvania transportation authorities will form a company. This company The company used the toll rights of this road as collateral to borrow money from the bank to build this road." I took a leisurely sip of Kung Fu tea and said calmly.

"toll road?"

The two of them were startled and immediately became very interested. The nature of the road didn't matter to them, but the question was whether the source of funds to build this road was guaranteed. They had already heard the implication of my words, which was nothing more than throwing out this The bait is to ask construction companies to advance funds for road construction. In the current environment, this is acceptable. After all, such good things as fully investing in road construction are not available at any time. What they are most worried about is the local area. If the financial support cannot be sustained, and if payment is delayed for several years, the enterprise will have no choice but to fail. But now, using the right to charge as collateral to obtain a loan from a bank is a good idea.

"Well! I have contacted relevant departments such as the Department of Transportation and the Provincial Price Bureau. Although this method is the first of its kind in our Jiangzhou Province, the Jianggui Expressway and Jiangyu Expressway have actually begun to do so. Only However, it is carried out by Hong Kong capital or a joint venture, and the scale is much larger. Our highway can be a pioneer in this aspect."

"County Magistrate Ye, open the skylight and speak frankly. What do you want us to do?"

Humpty Dumpty is already a little unsteady. If this is the case, then funds are not a problem at all. Using toll rights as collateral for loans has precedents in other provinces. There are also two highway financing parts in this province that adopt this method. , that is to say, the only worry has been eliminated. This 60-kilometer road construction project with an investment of more than 25 million is a coveted piece of cake. Not to mention taking it all, even if you can get it The income from the next half, or even one-third, is quite considerable.

"It's very simple. Director Li and President Lu are both our superiors. When we ask them for mortgage loans in the future, we may have to ask Governor Lu for the mortgage loan. So I will disclose this information to you first. As for what you should do How to operate it is your business. Since it involves two regions, it is estimated that the Municipal Transportation Bureau will have to coordinate the connection. However, I suggest you two to make preparations first. After all, there are many people watching for such a large project. , once the preliminary preparations are done, even if it is put on the table to show off, the confidence will be much stronger when the time comes."

My words are very vague, just to leave unlimited room for imagination to these two guys. One is the cousin of the president of the Huaian City Industrial and Commercial Bank of China, and the other is the brother-in-law of Li Dingnan, the director of the Huaian City Finance Bureau. There is considerable strength behind both companies. , letting these two guys take over the construction of this highway can not only alleviate the grievances of the two parties who failed to succeed in Xinhua Highway, but also make use of the human resources behind these two companies to promote the progress of this project.

"Mr. Ye, I'm afraid the approval of the toll road project is not that simple. I'm afraid the city doesn't have the power to approve it, so it has to be sent to the province, right?" Lao Pu, who had been silent for the whole time, took two deep puffs of his cigarette and blew out smoke rings. His eyes are extremely bright.

"Of course it has to be approved by the province. If my surname is Ye, I can't even get past this level, then what treasure should I offer in front of you two?"

I smiled faintly and continued: "I dare not say anything else. In the province, I still have some of these roads. We are staying well in the Transportation Department. Why do we come to this ghost place like Huai'an? Isn't it just to achieve some political achievements? , why don't you let the leader give you a chance when you go back? You don't need to worry about the approval and procedures in the province, brother, I will be responsible for it."

"County Magistrate Ye, if you have any other ideas, why don't you say it out loud so that our two families can refer to it." Lao Pu stared into my eyes and said calmly.

I smiled slightly and said: "What I mean is that the two brothers can reach an agreement with our county first and advance the funds to build the road from the county seat to the mouth of the river. The approval of the project here will be done at the same time. In this way, after the project is approved, the two Our company has already started construction, and I think the region will not have to replace the construction unit again, so everyone will be happy."

Lao Pu smiled coldly and asked: "What if this project...can't be approved by the province by then? Then who should we ask for money from? Lingtai County? What will you use to pay for it?"

"The two of you can also wait until the project is approved before bidding. But by then, this project will definitely have become a hot topic, and many people in the province will definitely know about it. By then, if the city can't handle it, If you feel pressure to hand over the project to another company, don’t blame me for not reminding you two, and don’t blame me, Mr. Lu and Director Li, for not taking care of me.” I said with an impeccable expression.

The expressions of Chubby and Lao Pu changed slightly.

Although the two companies have some influence in Huai'an, they are limited to Huai'an. However, this road spans two regions and involves Pennsylvania on one side. Moreover, many approval procedures still need to go through the provincial level, which is inevitable. There will be characters such as relatives, brothers-in-law, and elders of some big boss in the province, who smell the smell and want to interfere. By then, it is really hard to say whether the city can withstand the pressure.

But as I said, if the two companies have already signed the contract for the Lingtai section of the project and have officially entered the construction stage, then no matter who it is, it is impossible for them to ask the two companies to withdraw and let other companies do the work. , this is obvious.

However, the risks of early intervention are also obvious. Lingtai will definitely require advance funds for construction. Once the toll road project fails to be approved by the province, all funds will have to be advanced by the two companies until the project is completed. During this period, the Lingtai County Government How much money can be given depends entirely on the attitude of Lingtai County. Even if it can use the influence behind it, it will definitely not be that smooth.

Humpty Dumpty and Lao Pu both fell silent, seeming to be weighing the profits and possible risks.

"County Magistrate Ye, let me ask a question, how likely is it that you think this charging project can be won in the province?" The short fat man bit his lip and asked.

"I personally feel that I am 60 to 70 percent sure. After all, Lingtai is a poor area and the channels for raising funds are very narrow. This is an experiment. Of course, if you two can help with the work through other channels, I guess there won't be a big problem." , and the amount of funds is not very large." I said quite confidently.
