State-owned enterprises are of course inefficient, and that's because their responsibility is not all to make money. The difference in purpose will of course lead to the difference in the details of the operation. The reason why state-owned enterprises are bloated and people are lazy and lazy is because they can't just lay off employees in difficult times. At that time, his task was not to produce and make money, but not to add burdens to society. Don't think that the Western trade unions are awesome, that's just an illusion, as soon as the economy is depressed, the capitalists will fire everyone, hire a few bodyguards to guard the inexhaustible surplus wealth and wealth, and then the society will be full of alcoholics, drugs and robbers, and there will be nothing to do with guns.

Historically, during the vigorous development of the western region in the United States, the government offered the frenzied capital giants an average of about a few dollars per kilometer of railroad.

After calculating, the capitalists shook their heads and said: "It's too low, the situation is complicated, and this price is not enough even for white people's security fees." ”

Then General Grant told them: "You think too much, just build the railroad, although Lao Tzu won the Civil War and abolished slavery, but as an unspoken rule, I can turn a blind eye and not interfere with your labor structure." As for your security, leave it to the American cavalry. ”

As soon as the big sharks settle the score, if the slaves are treated as unspoken rules, and the American cavalry protects the whole process, a few dollars can work.

So General Grant really sent the American cavalry to open the way, and the sharks behind were on the bones of the Indians, driving the black slaves to build the railroad with whips. The actual cost of such an operation is surprisingly low, creating the rise of a group of quite awesome railway tycoons.

At that time, in the United States, there was no specific figure for Gao Fangping's GDP, but it should be around $2 billion.

So according to the purchasing power ratio, if the Great Song Dynasty contracts the project to people like Guan Qi, these sharks really have the ability to build a railway on the plain at a price of less than 300 yuan a kilometer.

Now the smelting productivity of the Great Song Dynasty is not as good as that of the United States at that time, and the cost of obtaining iron ore resources is also significantly higher than that of the United States at that time.

Workers cannot be counted as slaves, they must be given the accumulation of "owning their own homeland" and a sense of belonging, so the cost is weighted again, roughly calculated as five dollars per kilometer.

Shu Road is difficult, facing the situation of opening mountains, building bridges, and wading, which is absolutely different from building railways in the plains, so after weighting again, Gao Fangping has a big number in his heart, and he is really sure that the Chengdu section of the railway will be built at the price of 50 per kilometer.

Yes, it's so frustrating, it's outrageously cheap, and if the first phase of the project is built for 10,000 kilometers, it will be completed within four or five hundred thousand yuan. This is the reason why Chengdu has the confidence to carry it by itself.

Chengdu has not been developed at present, and the financial confidence is not much, but no matter how little, there are still hundreds of thousands of yuan a year.

It is not that it cannot be amortized over several years and the financing problem is solved by means of bonds.

Viewed separately, without the support of the central government, Chengdu itself is of course a major project, and in the case of a tight budget and insufficient money from the government, it is of course difficult to squeeze out a large amount of extra money to invest in the unclear project, and it will certainly not be possible to pass it in a democratic society in the future.

But in this era, or pork flat, is so rough. Relying on Chengdu itself, it can really toss this railway out.

Of course, without the support of the central government, it is difficult to connect with other state capitals. But even if this can be overcome, it is good that Gao Fangping has such a great reputation and has the title of Standing Committee, and now that he has the title of Standing Committee, there is also a way to deal with public relations in this kind of matter, which is nothing more than a matter of balancing interests.

The only purpose of being an official, or a person living in this world, should be to solve troubles. The only difference between those who have reached the end is that people will remember the names of Fan Zhongyan after a thousand years.

Of course, the preliminary estimate is the first phase of the project of 400,000 guan, which is only Gao Fangping's opinion, and it is Gao Fangping's angle.

In others, of course, it is not possible. If other bureaucrats come up, let's not talk about whether it can be completed, it is not impossible for the budget to exceed 10 times but 50 times, and eventually become a black hole. For example, the annual military expenditure of nearly 80 million yuan in the Great Song Dynasty hollowed out the country in this way. Of course, this problem will be alleviated to a certain extent after Zhang Shuye comes to power.

This is how things are in the world, in some things, it is not difficult for those who know, but it is impossible for those who are difficult to learn.

It is for this reason that some politicians can build the initial shape of the whole country in the future without enough to eat. And some people can also throw a few trillion dollars of heavenly budget to fool around, and in the end, he didn't get any bird feathers, and he was full of wealth and disease.

Uncle Zhang is the person in charge of the transfer department, and perhaps Lao Zhang was finally frightened by the name of the so-called "inheritance project", knowing that once it becomes a national policy under unknown circumstances, the future investment will be uncontrolled, and a large group of new predators will be parasitic on this chain of interests, and even drag the Great Song Dynasty to death.

This must be the reason why Uncle Zhang changed his hexagram temporarily. If it is only Chengdu Mansion, how dare you invest in Lao Zhang, the problem is that there is only one Gao Fangping, and once the state capitals of the world respond to this climate and turn the whole country into a big construction site in a short period of time, it will be a big problem.

Lao Zhang's worries are not unreasonable, but in Gao Fangping's position, the Great Song Dynasty can hold on, even if corrupt officials are rampant and the construction of the project is costly, it must be launched strongly.

Because Gao Fangping is different from Wenqing who has perfect obsessive-compulsive disorder, Gao Fangping's principle is that as long as the general direction is fine, what cannot be solved temporarily will be pulled across the past. I'll solve it when the time comes.

Attrition and corrupt officials are at all times. But corrupt officials don't always mess things up, and conversely, clean officials don't necessarily make a difference. Now is the best time for the construction of the Great Song Dynasty, with the rise of the economy, the people's wisdom is opened step by step, and the civil rights are unlocked step by step. The further you go, the greater the cost of building the railway, and the cost will increase exponentially.

The reason why there is no railway in India is because the hooligans who never set the sun want to repair it in India, and the indigenous Indians bring their own lunch boxes to help repair it, because the British hooligans have guns. But as soon as the British hooligans left Indian democracy, all the problems came, the bureaucrats were going to pass through here, and the natives said, this land is mine, and there is half a million dollars worth of oil buried underneath, and you have no problem building a railway on it, just buy the land from me.

Damn, the bureaucrats are scared to death? 500,000 dollars to buy you to break the ground? So the project ran aground.

Ten years later, he wanted to repair it again, and a politician with faith came up, he gritted his teeth and went to buy land with 500,000 US dollars, and the landlord's son said again, I didn't find it before, but now there are oil and copper mines underground, so this land is worth 5 million US dollars, and if you want to repair it, you will buy it.

So there will never be a railway. However, all of them are right, since no one is wrong, then let's bask in the sun together.

So Gao Fangping knows that he has to do everything early. The further the government goes, the poorer it will become, and the more it will be unable to afford to start work......

Zhao Ji took the newspaper about the railway sent by the Ministry of Industry in his hand, because he was forced, so this time Zhao Ji only had the patience to read it.

This is not a poem, it's a bunch of drawings or something, so Zhao Ji doesn't understand what the hell this is?

Seeing that the emperor pretended to nod his head without knowing it, Zhang Kegong had a headache and said: "Official, it seems that you don't understand what is going on, so the old minister will try to explain to the official family, this is the responsibility of the old minister." This is probably that some officials are pushing this kind of thing for the sake of profit, probably refining a large number of iron ore resources that are already in short supply in our Great Song Dynasty, and making them into this kind of unclear thing one by one, laying it on the ground, and they call it a railroad track. A group of madmen from the school of science said that after the contact between the iron wheel and the rail, the friction is small, and the yield deformation of the rail and the wheel is small, so the power loss is minimized, and the transportation efficiency can be improved. ”

Zhao Ji smiled and said: "It's good to improve the efficiency of transportation, as far as I know, the reason why Caoyun is important is because it is the most powerful project of my Great Song Transportation." ”

I'm going to go!

Zhang Kegong walked around in a hurry with half a bucket of water, and said, "Official, you believe what they say?" In the eyes of the ministers, this is simply a fallacy to confuse the public, but a means for the bureaucrats to accumulate money under the pretext of the project, and what they steal is your money. ”

Zhao Ji was startled and said: "It's hateful and hateful, and I stole my money." ”

Now Zhang Kegong smiled: "Yes, that's what the minister thinks." Otherwise, this is simply full, and the benefits are not visible for the time being, but they want to toss. What is a toss-up? It is a dirt road that can be walked without repairing it and leaving it unused, and it costs people and money, and the road that can be walked can be paved again with iron wheels and railroad tracks, which is called frenzied repetitive construction. ”

After Zhang Kegong's explanation, Zhao Ji really believed it, he didn't know the inside story, he thought right, the current wheel, the current road can also be walked, and there is no need to spend money on maintenance, why use a large number of iron resources that are already tense to pave it again?

Thinking about it, Zhao Ji asked, "You tell me, who wants to harm me this time." Who is going to expropriate my people for meaningless things, and where is the evidence? ”

"It's Gao Fangping who leads, and the evidence is not ...... The old minister is a speech official, and the ancestral rules let the old minister speak without evidence. "Zhang Ke is fair.

“……”

Zhao Ji was unhappy when he heard that it was Xiao Gao, and that this old guy had no evidence. The reason why he didn't scold him was that Zhao Ji was a little too lazy to scold him, and then what he said this time, Zhao Ji felt that it was somewhat reasonable.

Seeing that the emperor hesitated and did not speak, Zhang Kegong hurriedly said: "Now there are rumors about this everywhere, which is simply chasing after the wind and distorting the facts. Such a simple thing, if it is beneficial, then why did the ancestors never think about it and never use it? Therefore, the old minister did not say that Xiao Gao was a traitor, but his move was to laugh and be generous. ”

Zhao Ji fluted again, thought about it carefully, that is, put a few horizontal logs on the ground, and then put a few rails on the ground, it is indeed simple and cannot be simple, so why didn't the ancestors build it?

But in view of the fact that this little old Zhang is yellow all day long, Zhao Ji has limited trust in him now, and then Xiao Gao has had too many magic in the past. Zhao Ji didn't want to be easily suspicious. So he never said anything.

"Your Majesty......"

When Zhang Kegong spoke again, Zhao Ji got up and interrupted: "Stand down, I will think about it, I have something to do now." ”

"Your Majesty......"

When Zhang Kegong wanted to say something again, Zhao Ji's bird interrupted: "Hurry up, retreat." ”

So Xiao Lao Zhang was politely invited out by the guards.
