Although Xiao Yuanhang's words were neither anxious nor slow, they exploded on Xu Wenbo's head like thunder! Yes, it is true that highway transportation is the infrastructure of the national economy, but it does not have to be funded by the government according to the old model! Songjiang Province is a major agricultural province with extremely underdeveloped industries and limited annual tax revenue. In addition to normal expenditures, the funds for infrastructure investment can be used are very limited. For example, the construction projects of these two roads and highways have been solved to raise 60 million yuan. Even if it is distributed to the four prefecture-level cities along the way, the total amount of funds is less than 200 million yuan. Even half of the funds of the Chungu Expressway have not been raised, not to mention that the four prefecture-level cities have not raised this money yet!

At this time, Xu Wenbo truly realized that Xiao Yuanhang had only thoughts and never could not do the profound meaning of this sentence. The province had been struggling with a few years of big problems. Xiao Yuanhang's light idea made this problem light. Although there is still a long way to go to implement it in detail, at least, he provided a feasible idea to solve this problem.

"Add investment?" Guo Xiaoquan said in surprise after hearing this: "Can you attract investment by building a highway?"

Xiao Yuanhang said: "Now all areas of the country are engaged in investment promotion, so of course we can do this in building highways?"

Guo Xiaoquan said: "Highway construction is a national infrastructure construction, and there is no precedent for attracting investment!"

Xiao Yuanhang said: "Reform and opening up is to cross the river by feeling the stones. You can try anything. As far as I know, the economically developed provinces and cities along the southeast coast have already made attempts in this regard."

Hearing this, Xu Wenbo finally couldn't help asking: "Xiao Xiao, which province and city did you talk about?"

It was very common for the construction of expressways in the previous life to introduce foreign funds. The first to introduce foreign funds to build expressways were those economically developed provinces and cities in the southeast coast. Xiao Yuanhang just said it in general based on his impression in his previous life. He was not sure whether they had introduced foreign funds to build expressways at this time, but Xu Wenbo asked. He had to answer.

After thinking about it, Xiao Yuanhang said: "For example, Lingnan Province and Zhejiang Province have all tried this."

When Guo Xiaoquan heard that there was indeed someone who introduced foreign funds to build a highway, he couldn't help but ask, "Where did you know?"

Xiao Yuanhang said: "When I went to Beijing for an in-person lecture this year, many of my classmates were from there, and they mentioned this during chats. At that time, I just listened to it as a joke, but I couldn't verify whether it was done there or not."

Xu Wenbo has been immersed in the impact Xiao Yuanhang brought to him. He heard this sentence: "If there is such a situation there, you will know it. If so, we can use it as a reference. If not, we will do so in line with the spirit of the central government!"

When Xiao Yuanhang heard Xu Wenbo say this, he knew that he had already recognized his ideas in his heart. This phenomenon was very common in later generations. It introduced foreign funds to repair the expressway, and bank loans to repair the expressway, and gradually became one of the fixed models for local governments to build expressways. Whoever invested would have had a few decades of highway toll rights, which would be a great project that would make a fortune.

Xu Wenbo has now started to plan how this matter works. The construction of the Chuncheng-Guhe Expressway and the Guhe-Tongshui first-class highway will undoubtedly have a great promotion to the economic development of Guhe. He is about to be promoted to the Secretary of the Guhe Municipal Party Committee and is very eager to achieve greater results during his term of office. If he can help the province solve this big problem, not only Guhe is one of the biggest beneficiaries. His political reputation can also rise to a greater level.

He believed that Xiao Yuanhang's idea was a pioneering idea, with a specific milestone significance. The Vice Governor Li mentioned by Guo Xiaoquan is Li Zhongxiao, executive vice governor of Songjiang Province, and one of the core members of the Xu family. Xu Wenbo first thought of it was to learn about the situation of introducing foreign funds to build highways through the Xu family's relationship. Then he formally formed a suggestion to introduce foreign funds to build highways, and submitted it directly to Vice Governor Li Zhongxiao for his reference. He believed in Li Zhongxiao's political wisdom. While solving his problems, Gu He and himself benefited from it.

Thinking of this, Xu Wenbo said: "Xiao Xiao, your idea is very good, which has given me a lot of inspiration, giving me a feeling of being full of mountains and rivers, and there is no way out, and there is a bright village with dark willows and flowers. What you said is nothing but it is impossible to do it very philosophical, and it can even be used as a change of thoughts, which is very inspiring."

Xiao Yuanhang scratched his head and said, "Mayor Xu, you have been awarded the prize. I just said whatever I think. If it inspires you, it would be an unexpected gain!"

Xu Wenbo said: "Xiao Xiao, don't be humble. Guhe can develop to this day, and you have a great contribution to this. I have decided to investigate your ideas tomorrow and then form a suggestion for provincial leaders to refer to. As for whether the provincial leaders can finally recognize this idea, it is not up to me to decide!"

In fact, Xiao Yuanhang has made a comprehensive plan for Xu Wenbo about the construction of highways, but the time is not right now, and it is not suitable to fully reveal it. Although the introduction of foreign funds to build highways is a trend in the future, it is still a sensitive topic in this era. Whether the provincial leaders have the courage to take this step will take time to verify.

If the provincial leaders adopted Xu Wenbo's suggestion, then the next step is to attract investment. In this era, there is very little car ownership, and it is a long-lasting fantasy to recover investment costs by charging fees. At least on the surface, others do not have the memory of their previous life like Xiao Yuanhang. Who would have thought that in ten or twenty years, China's automobiles would increase rapidly, highway tolls or huge profits in the industry. If you invest so much money at one time, and you can't see any profit, he believes that the success of attracting investment is not very good.

At this time, Xiao Yuanhang could push Xu Wenbo to the front and take on the arduous task of attracting investment in Songjiang Province's expressway construction. He believed that after he and Xu Wenye joined forces to Japan for a major sweep at the end of September, the funds he and Xu Wenye's hand would double by more than ten times or even dozens of times. By then, it would be no problem for Xu Wenye to join forces to invest in the construction of these two expressways. If you want to believe that Xu Wenye would not refuse for his third brother!

Even if Xu Wenye rejected Xiao Yuanhang, he was not afraid, because by then the funds he had in his hands could still bear the construction of these two highways. Moreover, after the Japanese bubble economic crisis, the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991, and he could still do a big shot at that time!
