The ambitious Wu Liande wants to establish 5 universities, 20 technical institutes, 500 middle schools, and 10,000 primary schools within five years, which can accommodate 500,000 young people every year.

Of course, these schools are all Chinese-language schools, and in addition to schools, there are also a large number of hospital construction plans, which Wu Liande is embarrassed to mention.

Because there are too many funds, and the South China government, which lives on debt, cannot invest too much money in it, the only hope is Situ Nan.

This rich man has lost a single hair, and he does not have much more money allocated to the Ministry of Education by the Ministry of Finance of South China.

Looking at Wu Liande's stunned appearance, the faces of the senior leaders of Nanhua were stunned, and they were all looking at Situ Nan.

The look in his eyes seemed to say, "Let's do this!" ”

"Let's talk about this in more detail!" Situ Nan smiled faintly, he didn't think Wu Liande meant it at all, about Nanhua's education, he had some plans to talk to Wu Liande in his heart.

"Okay." Seeing Situ Nan's happy look, Wu Liande nodded with a smile and breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that his plan had a good chance to come true.

"Back to the question at the beginning, let's move on to the transportation construction of Nanhua!" Situ Nan's words changed, and his expression was stern: "Transportation construction is urgent!" In the next 20 or 30 years, Nanhua will have to build roads, railways, highways, highways, and wharves.

I am very concerned about the current transportation construction in Nanhua, take our capital New Tangshan as an example, except for a railway leading to Bandung, which is only 200 kilometers short, which is completely unable to meet the needs of future construction.

At least from Merrak in the far west to Bali in the east. There should be a railway around the island of Java, with a length of 5,000 kilometers, and the whole of Java should be connected to establish a railway network with the four cities of the capital, New Tangshan, Bandung, Semarang, and Surabaya, as hubs.

The construction of this railway has not only greatly contributed to the economic development of South China. Let us also keep a firm grip on the entire island and let the rich resources of Java be put to good use.

The Americans built the Western Railroad, so they made the huge United States today, and the huge steel industry in the United States was built because of the construction of the railroad. This is a good example, otherwise what will we do with the steel industry we are building in the future?

It is used to make railroad tracks, railway bridges, and use the construction of railways to stimulate the development of steel, cement, machinery and other industries, which is the fastest and most practical road for the rise of South China. There is no other way. ”

Situ Nan said with a firm face.

"It's supposed to be a railroad, but it's just in terms of funding?" Situ Meiden said with a frown. If he hadn't known that Situ Nan was rich in pockets, Nanhua would really be a beggar's dream of becoming a rich man.

"Yes! That's not a small number! Yao Hongmin looked at Situ Nan with some suspicion and expectation. Heart: 10,000 kilometers of railway. How many dollars do you have to invest in this? But once successful, the impact is absolutely upside down.

Situ Nan slowed down, somewhat understanding everyone's worries, he smiled, and said in his heart: Lao Tzu is not a Sun cannon who runs a train with a mouth! He shouted for the construction of 200,000 kilometers of railways. As a result, even an iron nail was laid, but Lao Tzu has money! It should be possible to build 5,000 kilometers of railways on the island of Java and grit your teeth.

"I have a solution to the problem of money. I'll give 40 million dollars, of course. It's not enough, but I'm confident that I'll be able to raise enough money. There is one condition. I need Nanhua to follow the example of the U.S. government and sell 5 kilometers of land along the railroad line to the railroad company, so that I can confidently convince Wall Street investors that the Nanhua government will build the railroad without paying a penny. Is there really no money now? ”

After Situ Nan finished speaking, he stared at everyone, they were all stunned by Situ Nan's generosity, according to Situ Nan's conditions, wouldn't the future railway company own 25,000 square kilometers of land on Java Island?

The entire island of Java is only 130,000 square kilometers, so in the future the railway company will be the second largest landowner of this government, which is really-

The matter is too big, and in doing so, almost the entire country was sold to Situ Nan, although the facts are similar, but it is another matter to implement it in a clear place.

Everyone was silent, silently digesting Situ Nan's words, and the atmosphere became dull and depressing.

Situ Nan smiled and continued to explain: "Don't be so nervous, I haven't finished yet. Even if the railroad company owns those 25,000 square kilometers of land in the future, it will sell the land, and the nodes on the railroad will become new cities, which will invisibly promote the development of the country, just as the American railroad company does not have much land in its hands now.

I'm exaggerating, but the railroad on Java is not terra nullius, it has to pass through a large number of indigenous territories, and there will be constant disputes between the railway companies and the indigenous people.

Without a strong railway company, how can it deal with those Javanese natives? The railway is our weapon against the Javanese, and when the railway is built there, our Chinese influence will be expanded there, so that we can fight against the indigenous forces of Java. To put it mildly, the South China government is just generous to others. ”

Situ reminded them that they thought that the South China government was not necessarily approved by the indigenous people. The South China government is a robber, and the railway company is also a robber, and this is just a transaction between robbers and robbers.

"That's right! The army will definitely protect the railway company, and the recalcitrant forces will not be merciless in fighting! What does it matter to us how many indigenous people die? That's a good thing! ”

He Wenxiu said with a firm face. Xindao: The expansion of the railway is also the expansion of the army, and the railway company has gained a lot of benefits from it, so will the South China Army as a thug benefit less?

"Such a good thing should also be involved in the United States and China, although the Ministry of Finance can not provide too much money, but it can support the construction of the railway in terms of policy.

As long as the railroad is built, there is hope for our steel industry, and industrialization is not far off. In order to achieve such an ambitious goal, we must spare no effort to support! ”

Yao Hongmin almost patted his chest and reassured.

This matter is done, and the South China Ministry of Finance and the Meihua Company will also get a big share of the pie. Besides, this is a matter of the big boss's decision, how could Yao Hongmin, as Situ Nan's descendant, not applaud? As for Nanhuaguo, Yao Hongmin can't tell the difference between it and Meihua Company or the big boss Situ Nan, isn't it one?

The last two people in power in Nanhua supported it, and there was no reason for everyone to oppose it. As Situ Nan said, all of you here are big capitalists, isn't it normal to rob the indigenous people and carve up the country? Even the central bank of the country has sold to the American Chinese company, what is the point of selling the land of the indigenous people?

All of you here are clever people, and they immediately understand the strangeness of it.

The third one in favor was Huang Zhonghan, Minister of Industry, who said solemnly: "I also have a share in this matter, and it is incumbent on the Huang family to build railways for the country." I also subscribed for a $5 million investment quota. ”

What a cunning!

The others scolded in their hearts, and they also nodded and said yes, and they also secretly smelled in their hearts, can they buy shares in the railway company or subscribe to some railway bonds?

This is no exception even for Prime Minister Stuart Meyden, whose family has in fact become almost a side branch of the Stuart family, at least financially.

Only the rich can make a revolution, or after the revolution is successful, the poor will become rich people with a lot of money, and they will think differently.

In this regard, Situ Nan saw it very clearly, he was not embarrassed at all, let alone feel that he was embezzling Nanhua's national interests, but felt that he was helping the poor.

Otherwise, if there is no benefit, who would do such a stupid thing? Even if Situ Nan is willing to do it, then he can't pay all the money alone, right?

The final result was that Situ Nan personally, the Meihua Company, the Jianyuan Company and the Ministry of Finance of South China jointly invested US$100 million to establish the South China Railway Company, which was ready to complete the construction of the railway around Java Island within five years, and after completion, the South China Railway Company would monopolize the Java Island Ring Railway, including the 25,000 square kilometers of land.

Situ Nan was not satisfied, and he also set his sights on the construction of the railway in Sumatra. However, it is not practical to build a railway around the island of Sumatra, where the vast rainforest is much more difficult to gnaw than that of Java, which has been developed for many years.

The most troublesome thing is that the island's rivers are dense, all of which are short and rapid, which is difficult to construct and much more expensive than the Java Island Ring Railway.

So after hearing that Situ Nan was going to build a railway on Sumatra Island again, everyone except He Wenxiu could only support Situ Nan spiritually. Their eyes have been fascinated by the Java Island Ring Railway, and they have no mind or energy to play with Situ Nan.

Situ Nan's face was a little embarrassed, and he promised to build the Sumatra railway.

In his plan, the Sumatra Railway was divided into three disconnected sections, the main one being the Southern Railway in the south, which was centered on Palembang and stretched all the way to Lampung;

the Central Railway stretching from the Straits of Malacca port of Dumai to Duri to Pekanbalu, the capital of Riau province;

The Northern Railway, which runs along the Strait of Malacca to the south of North Sumatra, starts in Medan.

These three sections of railways total more than 2,000 kilometers, and the investment amount will not be less than 30 million US dollars, which gives Situ Nan a headache.

Although Sumatra has good development potential, it is far less than Java, and it is a waste to spend $30 million (or more) to build a railway that no one can use for the time being.

Huang Zhonghan and others secretly admired Situ Nan in their hearts and were moved by his selfless spirit.

But Situ Nan secretly laughed in his heart. Because Sumatra's oil and gas resources are much richer than that of Java, especially the Central Sumatra Railway, which is less than a hundred kilometers short, but who would have thought that it would be all oil underneath?

The two largest oil fields in the Indonesian archipelago - Minas Oilfield and Duri Oilfield are on this railway line, so how can Situ Nan not be moved?

In the past, Indonesia was the only Asian country in OPEC, the world's largest oil producer, which shows that Indonesia is rich in oil resources.

Indonesia's oil is concentrated in Sumatra, and Sumatra's oil is concentrated in Minas and Dury, two super oil fields.

The railway invested by Situ Nan, once it breaks out, will be a golden railway.

Of course, judging from the map, the railway did not pass directly through the Minas oil field, and Duri was just a deserted town with nothing but weeds, and it was a bit crazy to blindly build a railway where no one was around.
