Chapter 1034: Great Development of the West
In the western part of China, the vast land is sparsely populated. This is the least densely populated place in China, and it is also the most inconvenient place in China.
In recent years, the state has invested heavily in the western region. Especially in terms of transportation, railways, highways, and airports are being built one by one.
Traffic has improved a lot, but it is still a world away from the eastern region. The traffic here is extremely inconvenient, especially the harsh environment, which makes it very troublesome to enter and exit many places.
It may take a day or two to walk between cities hundreds of kilometers in a straight line, which is very normal in the western region.
Bianbei County, a small county in the western region, has an average altitude of 3,500 kilometers and an area of 8,881 square kilometers.
This area is equivalent to half of Yanjing, but the population of this county is only about 60,000 people. This shows the desolation of this place.
The only road connecting here to the outside is there. There are two district roads and four township roads behind the roads in the county.
The land is vast and sparsely populated, and the traffic is extremely inconvenient. In particular, it is here that the people feel it the most. People here have not been out for almost generations.
It is inconvenient to go out, and the straight-line distance to the provincial capital of Sa Cheng is only more than 800 kilometers. But it takes at least two days to get there by car.
The transportation is inconvenient, and it is not convenient to buy things. The government is also trying to improve this situation, but there are too many places to spend money, and although the investment in the west is huge, the west is too big, and on average, the investment in each region is still relatively small.
In the past few days, Bianbei County has been very lively. Because there's one more thing here, and that's the airport.
Longteng Bien Bey Airport, which is a small airport. But in the sparsely populated place of Bianbei. Even a small airport has four runways of several kilometers.
The runway is made of reinforced concrete, and the entire airport is enclosed by a high fence. And in the airport, there are hangars, towers.
These are not the most important things, the most important thing is that they can fly right on their doorstep. And the airfare is very cheap.
From Bianbei County to the provincial capital of Sacheng, it used to take two or three days to drive. Now it only takes an hour and a half to fly.
The most important thing is that the air ticket is cheap, from Bianbei County to Sa Cheng, the air ticket only costs 100 yuan.
The people asked many times before they finally decided. That's right, that's the price. 100 yuan, more than 800 kilometers of voyage to Sa City.
Other nearby places are cheaper, and many tickets cost tens of dollars. To Shudu, the capital of Sichuan Province, which is more than 900 kilometers, only 120 pieces are needed.
This fare surprised the local people. The fare was too cheap, but when they heard the explanation, they understood why it was so cheap.
In fact, the original price of the ticket from Bianbei to Sa Cheng was 700 yuan. Among the 700 yuan, 400 yuan are subsidized by the state, 100 yuan by the province, 80 by Longteng Group, and 20 by the county.
Four subsidies directly make the ticket only one-seventh of the original price. This subsidy is very large. And only locals have subsidies.
It is that they use their own ID cards to buy tickets, and they can only use this fare when they take the plane. As for outsiders coming over, there is no such price.
Subsidies, the reason why there is such a subsidy. I just want these people to go out and see more, to see more big cities, and to see the prosperity of the motherland.
This will not only increase their knowledge, but also contribute to the stability of the place. In addition to locals, there are also some people who can also benefit from this subsidy.
For example, people who have worked here for a long time, especially teachers, doctors, policemen, armed police soldiers, etc. They subsidize more.
This subsidy is a bloody investment. But this is really a good way for the country to think of at the moment. Although the subsidy is a lot of money, it is much worse than the money invested in road construction here.
A small county town with a total of 60,000 people, how much can it be subsidized every year. You must know that for the people here, 100 fast air tickets are not cheap.
They won't go out if they don't have to. Even if you go out, it's good to go out once a month.
The significance of the airport is not only that it is convenient for them to travel, but also that it is convenient for the economic development here. Bianbei County is vast and sparsely populated, although there is no industry, but there is agriculture and animal husbandry.
In particular, the cattle and sheep are farmed, and the meat quality is delicious and the quality is also very high. And here is less than a two-hour flight from Shudu.
If the Airbus is converted into a cargo bus, it can transport almost four tons of cargo at a time. Four tons of transport is a lot, if a slaughterhouse is built on the side of the shell.
The slaughtered beef and mutton are directly airlifted to Shudu, and the output of Bian Bei is not enough to stuff the teeth in Shudu.
Shudu people like to eat hot pot, and beef and mutton are the most commonly eaten things in hot pot.
This is the greatest significance of transportation. Interconnected, the goods inside went out, and the goods outside walked in.
Everyone's cattle and sheep can be turned into money more easily, and the price is much more expensive than the original. At the same time, things from outside come in, and the people of Bianbei County, who have made money, can buy a lot of things in their own county.
In this way, the economy can develop. For the 60,000 people of Bianbei County, this is the greatest significance.
In addition to these, the beautiful environment of Bianbei County will also attract some people to come and travel, which can also further promote the economic development here.
You must know that for the mainlanders, the west is still a very magical place. Because of the inaccessibility here, many people want to come but don't have much chance to come.
Even if you want to come, it's going to a metropolis like Sa Cheng. But the beauty of the west, on the contrary, is this kind of small city is more beautiful and simple.
Change, everything here will change because of this airport. Bianbei County will also change, because Longteng Group brings not just an airport, but a series of industries.
Next to the airport, planning has already begun. There are shopping malls, hotels, food processing factories, modern communities.
At the same time, large-scale investment will be made in Bianbei County to build a self-operated village. Drive the villagers here to choose more breeding, planting and so on.
It is a beautiful place with almost no industrial pollution. Therefore, the fruits and vegetables produced here are the top.
With a little publicity, you can make the products here the most high-end things, and the price of these things will be very high.
The West is a treasure trove of land, and it's not just about the resources here. The unpolluted environment here is the greatest wealth of this land.
In the past, this treasure land was placed here and could not be excavated. Now with Airbus, things are completely different. This mysterious land will usher in his rapid development, and the people here will be the biggest beneficiaries.
(I recommend a book to everyone, meticulously written "It Turns Out I'm Not an Ordinary Person", a very good book, you can go and read it when you have nothing to do.) )
