Liang Sanping smiled bitterly, this is also the most troublesome thing to build roads in Qiongdao. Qiongdao itself doesn't have much materials, and if you want to build a road, you may have to use the outside to bring in a lot of raw materials. The cost is extremely high.

"But...... We should probably build a few cement factories and brick factories here. Liang Sanping thought that if the road is built, then there must be a lot of raw materials such as cement needed.

And after the road from Baoting to Lucheng is built, as long as you see the benefits, the roads from Baisha to Baoting and Lingshui to Lucheng will also be put on the agenda. At that time, the amount of cement will be even more.

"In terms of materials, I want to find a way to expand the cement plant first." Liang Sanping pondered for a while, and said to Chen Songling and the others: "We have always had our own cement factory here, but we haven't expanded ......."

Liang Sanping is true, because of the special situation in Qiongdao, "self-reliance" is also advocated. Autonomous fertilizer plants, agricultural machinery plants, cement plants...... And so on, there are all kinds of farmland. You can even think of a farming as a miniature society.

Schools, hospitals, independent public security systems, and even armed companies and militias. However, many of these cement factories are only for the use of agricultural reclamation, and most of the time the output is insufficient.

If you want to supply a large project such as Shangzhuan, you need to expand your capacity and staff even further. At this time, it is necessary to introduce a large number of production equipment and train a group of employees at the same time.

"Employees are not a problem, and I can import the equipment from Japan through Guò Wanhong Co., Ltd." But Liang Sanping smiled and said to Chen Songling: "If the production capacity is concerned, it can at least be more than doubled." ”

After all, agricultural reclamation is only an area of tens of thousands of people, and the production line equipped with it is naturally not too large. Even the cement factory that is now under the jurisdiction of the farm. The daily output is only more than 100 tons.

It's just to meet the usual construction of the farm, and there is still room for it. But if it is used to support the construction of roads, it will certainly not be done at all. This output is not enough to plug the gap between the teeth in terms of road construction.

Therefore, they urgently need to expand production and update equipment, after all, road construction is a very expensive job. The amount of reinforced cement is also extremely huge, and the daily output of more than 100 tons cannot keep up with the consumption.

"Other facilities need to keep up. Steel bars, explosives, muck trucks, road construction machinery...... Wait a minute. Chen Songling smiled bitterly and said: "These are not a small number, at least 20 million will be smashed into it in the early stage." ”

"Later, we have to follow up on the funding. In the end, I roughly estimate that we will have to invest at least 40 to 50 million yuan to completely repair this road......"

Chen Songling's words are not an exaggeration, although it is only a short distance of more than 50 kilometers from Baoting to Lucheng. But this section is hardly plain, with two mountain ranges to pass along the way. A large number of roads were built on the mountain peaks.

The road is narrow and rotten, and it is almost impossible to walk during the rainy season. Moreover, the yellow mud road is slippery, and transport vehicles may encounter danger at any time on the hillside. After only inspecting less than 20 kilometers, Chen Songling felt that his head was extremely big.

Truly. Along the way, they saw a lot of vehicles coming in and out. From this traffic flow, it can be seen that it is feasible to build roads here. But what about the input?! When to recover the cost, this huge investment is a headache for Chen Songling.

Chicken ribs, chicken ribs! Chen Songling smiled bitterly, it seemed to have meat but felt full of bones. It's a pity to discard it. Looking at the mountains in front of her, Chen Songling was very helpless. How much does it cost to smash it in, so that it can barely be done.

And those engineers are not as idle as Chen Songling. They were calculating and discussing. Because the whole project needs to be evaluated by them, and how much money is needed to complete it.

Fortunately, Chen Songling was in the construction of Yizhou back then. I have been in charge of many projects. So the approximate total amount of funds, he still has a bottom in his heart. If you need to be more specific, then you have to estimate it by professional engineers.

At the same time, they also have to take into account the transportation costs, at least the steel bars are not produced by Baoting at present. Although Qiongdao has two iron ore sources, Shilu Iron Mine and Tiandu Iron Mine, Baoting does not have a smelting enterprise.

When the Qiongdao iron ore mine was developed, the Qionggang Iron and Steel Company was built. Qiong Island has always had a large number of mineral deposits. Among them, iron and copper are the most abundant.

During the hundreds of years from the Ming Dynasty to the Qing Dynasty, Shilu copper mines were mostly privately mined, so several times they discussed and banned mining. On December 21, 1974, iron miners excavated two dried bodies with long braids and two triangular iron rakes from the copper mine while working at the 412m level of the main ore body in Beiyi. It was confirmed that it was buried by a landslide during the Qing Dynasty when workers were digging copper mines.

In 1935, the Qiongya Industrial Bureau sent people to Shiluling to investigate the copper mine, and unexpectedly found that the iron ore reserves here are quite abundant and the grade is extremely high. But for various reasons, it was not mined. Then the Japanese army invaded China, and the iron ore of Qiongdao became the object of their plunder.

From the start of construction in 1939 to the surrender in 1945, the total mining volume of the Japanese army was 695274 tons, which was only two-thirds of the first phase of the plundering plan they planned, and 694945 tons of minerals were plundered.

But they also left a large number of finished equipment for Qiongdao Iron Mining, including K-120 type 3 cubic electric shovel, K-50 type 1 cubic electric shovel, Ob-1 type perforating machine...... Wait a minute.

There are even 300 hp winches, 80 hp winches and petrol tractors. After the liberation, the iron mining industry in Qiongdao gradually developed. At this time, the Changchang Coal Mine was also put into operation, and Qiongdao's coal and iron were self-sufficient.

"Then steel is not a problem, what about transportation......" Chen Songling smiled bitterly, the road here is a better road in Qiongdao. In this way, you can see how you think about the roads in other regions.

"We do have a railway...... Liang Sanping didn't speak, Xia Zhendong spoke first: "But our railway doesn't lead here, but there is an iron ore factory outside Lucheng......

The thinking of building a railway in Qiongdao has begun since the late Qing Dynasty. However, due to various reasons, construction has not been started. It was not until the Anti-Japanese War that Japan occupied Qiongdao, and in order to better plunder the resources of Qiongdao, they built a railway.

The construction of these railways was not a warm one. "An inch of embankment, an inch of blood. Several sleepers are a life, and stone eight are built into ten thousand bone pits", this is the Japanese way of building. Tens of thousands of weak laborers were massacred by the Japanese.

And after the founding of the People's Republic of China, the railway of Qiongdao was developed again. However, this development has been limited, and it has never left Qiong Island.

"Our railway route allows us to transport the steel bars directly from the smelter to Lucheng, and then to the road construction site by guò car." saw Xia Zhendong smile and said: "So there is no problem in terms of transportation." ”

said. Xia Zhendong even took out a map. Here are some road maps, routes and distances from the smelter to Lucheng. Of course, this area has been modified. Some special landmarks that won't show up.

Chen Songling nodded, it seems that the other party has done his homework. It also shows that they are very interested in building this road, which is very good. At least you can rest assured that you can proceed with the next step of the investigation.

At noon, everyone casually found a wild place and soaked in the mountain spring for a while. I have to admit that the environment of Qiong Island at this time is very good. You can even catch a lot of fatty fish in the mountain spring, and you can eat it by grilling it over charcoal for a while.

A few guides from the village who came out to help. With a smile, he took out the marinated boar meat and roasted it on the fire. The rest of the people were wearing shorts and jumped straight into the water to catch fish.

If it weren't for Chen Songling and other investors from Yizhou, they would definitely be stripped naked and go straight to the water to swim in the water. There is a tradition that has always been preserved in the village of Qiongdao, and that is respect for the elderly.

When they went out, the old people told them that they had to take care of the guests who came from afar. That's a guest of Sanping, the God of Wealth, and when people come, they may throw money at the Treasure Pavilion. When the time comes, everyone will have meat to eat and wine to drink.

Although the young people didn't understand why, they listened honestly to what the old people said. So along the way, these young people were humble and polite, unless Chen Songling asked them, they were just bored and led the way.

And this time. That's when they were able to set them free. Along the way, Liang Sanping and Chen Songling's conversation, they couldn't understand but listened to it in horror. Now they can get more than 200 yuan a month. That's a lot more than the workers on the farm.

This has allowed them to live a good life that they couldn't have imagined before, but Liang Sanping and Chen Songling opened their mouths to be millions, tens of millions. All kinds of carts and steel bars made them dizzy.

As young people in the mountains, they couldn't imagine what a huge number this was. If that money were to be shipped, it would fill the whole cottage, right?! 20 million, can you buy the entire treasure pavilion?!

A few young people couldn't help but feel dizzy. Today's events are too shocking for them. Even for a moment, they couldn't accept the amount of information in it, and those numbers directly made them dizzy.

"Brother Sanping! You drink water...... "The young people in the village have always regarded Liang Sanping as an idol, and it was this young man who led the villagers of the entire Baoting to live a life that they didn't dare to think of before.

So as long as it is a young man in the village, even if it is a round older than Liang Sanping, Liang Sanping is called "Brother Sanping". This is a kind of respect, and what is respected is that Liang Sanping led them to a good life.

"Brother Awu. Don't call me Brother Sanping. It's good if you call me Sanping, otherwise I'll be embarrassed! Liang Sanping smiled at the young man named Ah Wu.

Ah Wu smiled hesitantly and said, "Brother Sanping, let me ask if you can take me next time you go out on errands?!" ”

Liang Sanping couldn't help but be stunned when he heard Ah Wu say this. Ah Wu thought that Liang Sanping had misunderstood something, so he hurriedly said: "I will pay the fare myself, and I will help Brother Sanping carry his bags and fold the house along the way." Not for anything else, I just want to go out with Brother Sanping to get a look! ”

Liang Sanping couldn't help but sigh when he heard this, as he grew older, his quality of life improved. These young people have also begun to think about the outside world, and this state is what Liang Sanping hopes to see.

Only when you see the outside world can you know the gap between yourself and the outside. Only then can we have the motivation to move forward. Ah Wu looked at Liang Sanping a little nervously, so far Liang Sanping had not taken any young people from the village to leave Qiongdao.

The people who could go out with him were a few farm children. Although they are envious, they are not jealous. That's because people have this fate, and they have known Liang Sanping for a long time. And it is true that others are more capable than their own and others.

"Actually, it's my fault, I should have taken you out to see and see a long time ago." Liang Sanping said to Ah Wu with a smile: "But during this time, I was always busy ignoring this. ”

"Hey, hey, hey...... We all know that Brother Sanping, you are busy for us and for Baoting. So we didn't dare to ask you about it, and we met these bosses today......"

Ah Wu is very honest, with the simplicity unique to young people at this time in Qiongdao. Whatever comes to mind, speaks directly in your mouth. If it were anyone else, I'm afraid they would think that this young man is like this! Seeing the envy of the boss, use me as a stepping stone, right?!

But Liang Sanping knew that Ah Wu definitely didn't have this idea. The young man wanted to be able to see the outside world more. Their eyes were already open, and they were cautiously exploring the outside world.

"I also hope that you can see more of the outside world, and know that the outside world is very big. But I want you to know that no matter how beautiful the outside world is, your roots are still here, in Qiongdao, and in Baoting. ”

Liang Sanping looked at Brother A Wu and sighed softly: "No time, where we go, or what we do, we can't forget it." Our roots are here, the fathers here, the betel nut orchards and fields here. That's what we're all about. ”

"Hmmm! Brother Sanping! I know! But I saw Ah Wu patting his chest and saying: "I, Ah Wu, am not the kind of person who forgets his roots, even if it is good outside, this is my home." My father and grandmother are still on Qiong Island, where can I go if I don't come back?! ”

At this time, the young people did not have the idea of desperately wanting to escape from here and become a city person. They are more of the kind of homeland inseparable feelings in the bones of the Chinese, which can be detected from the fact that Ah Wu can say these words without hesitation. But in the future, who can say for sure?!

Liang Sanping now just hopes that young people like Ah Wu can not forget their roots. After going out in the future, even if you really want to develop outside, you can take care of your neighbors and help other young people in Qiongdao.

"Puff~" At this time, Chen Songling couldn't bear it, the weather in Qiongdao was already hot. After a long day of crawling and rolling in the mountains, they were already too hot to die. At this time, when they saw the waterhole, they naturally wanted to take a swim too. (A good event for pie in the sky, cool mobile phones are waiting for you!)
