Chapter 234 Transportation Planning

In the second year of Daye, Fang Hao came to Taiqiu for the fifth year.

At the beginning of the new year, the Ministry of Communications released the traffic plan for the next five years through the "Taiqiu News", and two national highways, one vertical and one horizontal, will be built with the capital as the core within the next five years.

This plan is to draw a cross on the map of Taiqiu, and the center of the cross is the capital.

At the end of the cross are the four most marginal provinces in the southeast, northwest, all the way to the border.

Every mountain opens a road, meets water and builds a bridge.

The requirement was a hardened road surface that could allow twenty carriages to pass side by side.

Such an announcement shocked the whole country.

Because there are high mountains and big rivers along the way, the construction is extremely difficult.

Some places can be bypassed, and some places cannot be bypassed at all.

Although some places seem to be difficult, they can still be solved as long as you put in all your labor and work hard.

But there are some places where there is no way to solve it even at any cost.

For example, some big rivers that cannot be avoided.

If you want to build a road, you must have a bridge across the river.

Some rivers are as wide as several miles or even tens of miles. If you want to build such a wide bridge, no one can see the possibility of realizing it.

The Ministry of Communications suddenly came up with such a five-year plan, which made many people wonder if they were drinking too much and talking nonsense.

——How is this possible?
However, Taiqiu Industrial Group later expressed its willingness to do its best to cooperate with the planning of the Ministry of Communications and provide technical support and material support.

This time, it was a donation again, and it was a large donation, a donation larger than the amount donated to the pilot education.

But the donation was not gold or silver, but building materials.

After four years of development and constantly digesting the technology that Fang Hao brought from the earth, Taiqiu Industrial Group has made great progress.

They have more than 100 steel factories all over the country, employing more than [-] steel workers, and their annual steel output reaches tens of millions of tons.

This year's steel production is already equivalent to the steel production of the Taiqiu Kingdom in the past hundreds of years.

As for cement factories, let alone, they are all over the country.

Especially along the two planned national highways, there will be a cement factory every other distance.

Under Fang Hao's technical guidance, in the past four years, both the quality of cement and steel have been greatly improved.

Some roads and bridges have also been built intermittently, and the quality is gradually improving. The construction skills of the construction workers are also improving, and some technical backbones have also been trained.

They already have certain technical reserves and material reserves to start this huge project.

After all, there are five years. During this process, both construction technology and material quality will be further improved.

They can start from the easiest place to repair, and leave the more difficult places for future solutions.

What Fang Hao donated were materials, steel plants and cement plants along at least two national highways. Within five years, all production capacity would be given priority to the construction of these two national highways.

Any surplus will be sold.

If it is not enough, it will be shipped from other factories.

Anyway, Fang Hao has a storage ring with a lot of space, and he can fly with a sword himself, so it's no problem to be a transporter.

Taiqiu Industrial Group is responsible for all materials for the construction of the two national highways, all of which are donations.

The nature of Taiqiu Industrial Group is a private enterprise, a private enterprise, providing free material support to the road of national construction, of course it is a donation.

This is not its obligation.

As for technical support, Taiqiu Industrial Group will provide tens of thousands of skilled construction workers and technical backbones, but the wages of these workers and technical backbones need to be paid by the Ministry of Communications.

In addition to these workers, a large number of migrant workers will be used to build roads, which also needs to be solved by the Ministry of Communications.

After the first batch of donated materials arrived, Fang Hao figured out the system's judgment on the value of this donation.

The system recognized the nature of this charitable donation, and the amount was converted based on the sales price of those materials in this world.

For Fang Hao, this was simply a surprise.

He originally worried that the value of the system to the materials would be calculated at the price of the earth, which would be too low.

The technology on the other side of the earth is more developed, the scale is also larger, and the cost of materials is much lower than that of this world.

According to the price there, Fang Hao would have suffered a huge loss.

If that's the case, he can only change the donation method and donate gold directly to the Ministry of Communications by himself, and then the Ministry of Communications will go to Taiqiu Industrial Group to purchase those materials.

But whether that would be judged as cheating by the system, he didn't know.

Now that the system can convert it according to the market price, he is very satisfied.

There are some products that can only be provided by Taiqiu Industrial Group, and the price is also determined by them. In fact, there are some premium components.

This is also a very reasonable business phenomenon.

Fang Hao has never pursued huge profits, but it is impossible to develop industries without making profits at all, and there must be some profits no matter what.

Now these materials are donated to the Ministry of Communications for road construction, all of which are calculated according to the market price, and the sales channel is omitted. In terms of charity value, it is more profitable than selling them themselves.

Moreover, this is a large transaction, and this order will consume most of Taiqiu Industrial Group's production capacity in terms of building materials within five years.

There is no need to worry about sales, and production can naturally be run at full capacity. This also allows industrial groups to take this opportunity to expand production capacity.

Although the materials have been donated, the system calculates the charity value according to the market price. Fang Hao can use the charity value to exchange real money from the system to continue investing. Therefore, this kind of donation will not empty out the foundation of the industrial group, but will also make it more profitable. Industrial conglomerates become more powerful.

The transportation plan has given Fang Hao a more stable donation channel than education.

It's also a bigger and bigger plate.

The land area of ​​Taiqiu country is larger than the land area of ​​all the countries on the earth combined, but the two national highways, one vertical and one horizontal, cannot meet the transportation needs of Taiqiu country at all.

At the very least, there must be a nine-vertical, nine-horizontal, and eighteen main roads that run through the country, plus a number of provincial-level highways, city-level highways, and county-level highways, in order to weave a transportation network that connects the whole country.

That requires more funding than education.

In addition to roads, there are also railways.

Shipping also needs to be developed. Large iron ships must be built, rivers must be dredged, and if necessary, grand canals must be dug.

All this requires huge investments.

And the benefits of this investment are incredible.

After the planning of the two national highways was implemented, Fang Hao's hard work in the past four or five years has finally paid off.
