Qin Feng formulated a plan for the construction of the railway.

That is, report to superiors first.

If the superiors say that there are financial difficulties, then Yingcheng will propose raising funds by themselves.

But usually, this is laughed at.

Because building railways is too expensive.

Normally, when building an ordinary railway, for example in a plain area, there are fewer things to consider. Basically, you only need to consider basic conditions such as hydrology, geology, climate, etc.

The average construction cost of such a kilometer is about 1 million yuan.

Yingcheng is located in a plain, and most of the surrounding areas are plains. Therefore, the construction cost is not high.

However, according to the plan of Yingcheng, the railway cannot be built for just over 100 kilometers. It must be connected in all directions. If we go forward for more than 100 kilometers, there will be mountains on all sides.

This mountain tunnel is expensive. If the geological conditions are better, the current cost is basically over 10 million for one kilometer.

These 10 kilometers are equivalent to 100 million.

When it is built, according to Qin Feng's standards, it will at least have railway connections with cities in all directions. The total planned railway mileage currently exceeds 1,600 kilometers.

This number is a bit shocking, why is it so high?

But there's no way, that's it.

The reason is also very simple. There was an industrial railway before Yingcheng.

However, it is basically abandoned.

There are no other civilian-grade ones at all. They all need to be rebuilt.

Yingcheng itself is also located on a transportation thoroughfare, especially Qin Feng's request is to open an intercity railway.

With construction in all directions, there will naturally be more roads.

This is just like the mileage of Beijing's subways, which later exceeded 700 kilometers. In Shanghai, the mileage is even more than 800 kilometers.

As for Qin Feng, this is to connect surrounding cities, with Yingcheng as the core, and penetrate its influence in all directions.

The mileage of construction is more than 1,680 kilometers, which is not much.

After all, the nearest city to any city is more than a hundred kilometers away. And the distance to Jiangcheng is more than two hundred kilometers.

There is not a single railway in the middle.

Not to mention cities in other directions.

This requires a calculation of 10 million, which is a huge investment of 16.8 billion yuan.

This is only the construction cost of the railway itself, not counting the purchase of locomotives, training personnel, etc.

This total investment will amount to 20 to 30 billion. This does not include demolition-related costs.

In this case, the superiors will definitely let Yingcheng build it on its own.

If you want money, the court has no money. If you have the ability, you can raise your own funds.

If so? That would be easy.

Is Qin Feng afraid of being restrained by relevant departments? He doesn’t approve.

As long as you can approve it? Qin Feng can get the funds.

"But? Master Qin? You said this kilometer cost 60 million!" Zhang Fuyin and others couldn't help but exclaimed.

The cost is too high.

60 million per kilometer? Is it such an exaggeration?

This is too exaggerated.

Is it that exaggerated?

"What I build is a high-speed rail!" Qin Feng said.

High-speed rail is the mainstream in the future. Now you build an ordinary rail track, but in the future the court will build high-speed rail, so why don’t you build another one?

The rails of the high-speed rail are not ordinary rails? That is completely different.

High-speed trains can run on ordinary cars, but ordinary trains cannot run on high-speed trains.

So? Qin Feng simply did it all at once.

Naturally? The price is different.

"High-speed rail? What is high-speed rail?" Everyone was confused.

This is the first time I heard this term.

Qin Feng smiled.

"You know Japan's Shinkansen? It's the Shinkansen!" Qin Feng said with a smile.

As for the Shinkansen? Everyone knows.

That's super fast.

Japan's Shinkansen is famous all over the world.

What if we build such a railway? Everyone thinks it is worth the 60 million per kilometer.

Although it is expensive, in the long run? It is definitely beneficial.

And everyone is still young. Basically, they are all in their forties.

This is still very young.

In the future, they still have a lot of time to enjoy the results of this investment.

In this case? Naturally, I am willing to build it.

Soon, the relevant plans were finalized.

Of course, it is not a construction plan. It is a high-speed rail budget plan.

Then, it was reported directly to the court.

Now, there is no need to report to the state government.

Now it is reported directly to the court. This feels different.

Naturally, as everyone expected, the higher-ups' request to build a railway in Yingcheng was dismissed directly on the grounds that the court had no money.

However, as everyone expected, the court finally replied that if you want to build it, you must raise funds yourself. The court will make appropriate arrangements at the connection point.

In other words, if Yingcheng builds its own high-speed rail, then eventually the high-speed rail can be integrated into the imperial railway network.

On this point, the imperial court gave it the green light.

Of course, in terms of operating costs, the price will be divided by the court.

To put it simply, it means that if you raise funds to build the railway yourself, the court's trains can run in, but the court has the final say on how to divide this section of the journey.

Whether you give more or less is the final decision of the court.

Naturally, Yingcheng will definitely suffer from this.

But people didn't care about this.

The key lies in the court's approval.

As for cost operation, to everyone, it is not important at all.

Because its main source is intercity railway.

As long as intercity rail can make money, that's fine.

This aspect is completely decided by Yingcheng.

"In terms of funding, I think you can take this opportunity to invite bids and attract major overseas capitalists. In this way, you can complete the preliminary investment plan for Yingcheng." Qin Feng said.

Everyone nodded.

After confirming some details with Zhang Fuyin and others, Qin Feng boarded the flight back to the United States.

Nowadays, Yingcheng has direct access to Europe and the United States.

From this point of view, it has brought a lot of convenience to Yingcheng.

Of course, at the moment, there are very few flights.

After all, Yingcheng is not very famous yet.

There are tourists from Europe and America, but not many.

Therefore, this bidding is needed.

For this bidding plan, Qin Feng ordered 100 billion yuan for Yingcheng.

60 million per kilometer of high-speed rail, at least 1,680 kilometers will be built.

So the total cost just exceeded 100 billion yuan.

Qin Feng believes that such a large investment is enough to cause a sensation in the international financial circle.

At that time, it will be able to bring top traffic and top popularity to Yingcheng.

In this way, there is no need to worry about Yingcheng not being very popular in the future.

As for carrying such a heavy debt, there is no need to worry.

The money invested today can all be earned back.

This is a business that only makes money but does not lose money.

You will definitely not lose money.

Qin Feng was not worried at all that it would bring down Yingcheng's economy.

Of course, for many people in the imperial court, this was very unfavorable.
Chapter completed!
