Lin Xiao suddenly said such a sentence, which made Li Guiyuan and Cao Tiancheng feel a little surprised, I don't know what he meant by saying this?

"In these days, in fact, it is easier to find funds, but the question is whether the other party has the motivation to spend money, and it cannot be an unproductive input." Lin Xiao said.

A person who can have such a large amount of money naturally can't be a benevolent person, after all, there must be a limit to building bridges and roads, and it is impossible to say that billions of funds will be smashed into this, what is this?

Some people seek fame, some people seek profit, but whether it is seeking fame or profit, there is always a problem within one's ability, and it is really not something that anyone can do with tens of billions of dollars to repair the tunnel at the bottom of the river at once.

But since the province doesn't want to pay this money, then it can only be decided by private individuals, there are really not many people who can afford to pay, and people have invested a lot of money, after building this tunnel, how to recover the cost?

After all, there is no such thing as a free dinner.

Although Lin Xiao is not short of money in his hands, he has a bigger goal that needs to be achieved, which is inseparable from a large amount of cash to support, so for the construction of the river tunnel in the provincial capital, although he has the ability to help, he does not want this matter to become a bad start.

In business, investment in money, there must be a return, this is a truth that is not easy to see.

In the long run, things that are not earned for nothing are not good things for individuals, and it is also not good things for governments.

Today, Li Guiyuan pulled him over to talk and eat or something, obviously he came here for a purpose, and naturally hoped that Lin Xiao could sponsor a part of the funds to solve the problem of the tunnel under the river smoothly.

Others don't know Lin Xiao's details, but Li Guiyuan is very clear now, knowing that Lin Xiao is now a big family, and the cash in his hand is very sufficient.

Actually, of course, Lin Xiao didn't care much about spending money or something, but this money had to be spent clearly.

For example, the cost control of the river bottom tunnel, the quality and safety issues, and the return on what you can get after investing money are all issues that need to be seriously solved.

It is impossible for him to come up with tens or even tens of billions of funds because of Li Guiyuan's words, which is inappropriate.

"You can emulate the toll model of the expressway." Cao Tiancheng said, "The government according to the investment in ordinary highways, a part of the shares, the rest of the funds by other shareholders are responsible for the supplement, after the completion of the tunnel, the daily maintenance and management expenses from the part of the government revenue, the rest of the income, some shareholders according to the proportion of capital to divide." After a certain period of time, the tunnel will be completely free, such an idea should be feasible, right? ”

Cao Tiancheng's suggestion cannot be said to be very new, after all, the expressway model has been implemented for decades, and the funds collected by some expressways have already exceeded several times and dozens of times compared with the construction cost, and they have been continuing to collect fees.

Now, if this tunnel is built in the same way as the toll model of the expressway, then as a shareholder, or in the future, it can also be implemented in accordance with this practice, which is a good thing.

In fact, for large sums of money, it is really not easy to find a safe and convenient way to gain, and the idea of highways is indeed very tempting for them.

"In that case, the bank should be very happy to participate in such a project...... Lin Xiao thought about it for a while, and then asked with some curiosity, "Why don't you just look for them?" ”

Hearing Lin Xiao's question, Li Guiyuan said helplessly, "Recently, there have been too many bad debts in banks, and they are more keen to invest in the real estate market, which is a good project that makes sure that it does not lose money, and the income is amazing, which is much stronger than investing in tunnel construction, and the speed of capital return is faster." ”

Lin Xiao listened and nodded.

Nowadays, the domestic real estate market has indeed been in a hot state, although some big cities have been saying that housing prices are falling, but the actual situation is that the price reduction is those who no one cares about, the key location of the prime location of the real estate, the price is still high, and has been bullish.

It is only in order to meet certain political demands that the media selectively turn a blind eye to these issues, deliberately misleading the public, and giving people the false impression that property prices have fallen.

When you actually go to those real estate projects, you will find that the situation has not improved at all, and the property prices are still in a slow but firm upward channel.

This trend cannot be changed in a short period of time, which is determined by rigid demand, and cannot be changed by the influence of policies.

Banks are very profitable in this regard, so they are unlikely to give up the old hen that lays golden eggs and go to some kind of tunnel construction, which is very uneconomical at this time in terms of cost and return cycle.

Although Li Guiyuan is the governor of a province, it is difficult for him to interfere in the specific affairs of the bank, especially since the bank itself is controlled by several major families, and it has a profound background, so he may not be willing to sell his face as a provincial governor.

After all, the position of provincial governor is for everyone to sit in turns, but the control of these major banks has always been maintained in the hands of several major families, and it will not even change due to the change of political situation.

"If necessary, I can contact these big funds on my behalf." Lin Xiao thought about it and felt that it would be better to help Li Guiyuan with this favor.

Although Lin Xiao doesn't really need Li Guiyuan's support, Li Guiyuan is a provincial and ministerial-level official who has recently joined the old Lin family's camp, and his future development prospects are also optimistic.

The most critical point is that because Lin Xiao now has some spare money on hand, if this money is not spent, it will not generate income, in this case, why not do Li Guiyuan a favor, and by the way, strengthen his influence on Qingshan Province?

It's a win-win-win thing, and it's completely possible to do it.

"Then I will first help the more than five million residents of the provincial capital, thank you for your help." Li Guiyuan saw that Lin Xiao was relieved, and immediately said with a smile.

Li Guiyuan knew very well that as long as Lin Xiao agreed, the problem of funds was indeed not a problem for him.

Not to mention anything else, the last time Li Yuan followed Lin Xiao to the United States, the amount of pocket money he got surprised Li Guiyuan for a long time, and now that Lin Xiao is willing to help, there is no financial obstacle in this matter.

However, the technical problem is more complicated, Li Guiyuan planned to ask the design institute in the capital to help design it, and then come over to conduct a field survey or something, and come up with a more reliable plan, but Lin Xiao said that compared with the design institute in the capital, it is more appropriate to directly invite foreigners, at least the discipline is fuller.

"There's no way around it, it's like this, even if you spend a little more money, you have to ensure that the quality of the building is passed, isn't it? There is no problem with the design. Lin Xiao deliberately emphasized this point.

Spending a little more money is not a big deal, anyway, this project is operated according to the model of commercial operation and government participation, and it is not a complete financial allocation, so there is nothing wrong with Lin Xiao wanting to determine the general direction.

In addition, there is another point, which is more critical, that is, Lin Xiao and Li Guiyuan discussed, if the tunnel at the bottom of the river is opened, then in order to show the original intention of building the tunnel, in order to alleviate the problem of traffic difficulties, the three bridges on the river can be completely free for small vehicles, and large-tonnage cars are completely prohibited from passing.

For ordinary people, if they feel that spending money is a bit wronged, then they can sacrifice time in exchange for spending less money, just take the bridge, but for those who can't afford to spend time, they can naturally go through the more convenient river bottom tunnel, but it costs some tolls.

Large-tonnage cars, generally profit-making, for them, through the bridge is not very likely, after all, there is a tonnage restriction problem, then there is no problem in this aspect of the river tunnel, naturally is the first choice to solve the problem, with this choice, it is estimated that they will also be very happy, which means that there are a few more roads, no need to detour, but also to be able to lower the level of freight.

In this way, I believe that all aspects can be accounted for.

A few people roughly estimated that according to the normal situation, the cost of building two large-scale six-lane river bottom tunnels would be about 5 billion.

"If you want to do it, then let's just make it bigger." Lin Xiao figured out this matter at this time, since he also had to do it, then he had to do this project in place, at least so that the entire Qingshan Province would benefit from it, so he turned out the map of Qingshan Province from his mobile phone, and said pointingly, "Our Qingshan Province needs at least two similar projects to completely solve this problem, 15 billion funds, the province will solve 2 billion, and I will find a way to do the rest." ”

After Li Guiyuan and Cao Tiancheng heard this, they were a little surprised, but when they saw that Lin Xiao didn't mean to laugh, they immediately became a little excited.

If this thing is accomplished, it is foreseeable that it will play a role in stimulating the economy of the entire Qingshan Province.

Moreover, as far as the three projects themselves are concerned, they can also greatly promote the local economic growth or something, and some of the added value derived from the surrounding areas will also benefit the local people immensely.

"Governor, the dish is ready." At this time, the secretary Yu Fang came over and reminded in a low voice.

"Oh, I didn't expect it to be dark!" Li Guiyuan looked up and couldn't help but say with some surprise, "Then let's serve the food." ”

Then he smiled and said to Lin Xiao, "There are still a few specialty dishes here, I'll treat you, you can eat with your stomach open." ”

"Hey, Governor, this meal is really delicious and indigestible." Lin Xiao couldn't help but laugh when he heard this.

After eating 15 billion yuan in one meal, excluding the 2 billion that the province promised to solve, Lin Xiao will come up with 13 billion yuan, which is almost more than 2 billion US dollars.

Although this is not a big problem for Lin Xiao now, the price of this meal is really high enough.
