Rebirth of the Auto Giant

Chapter 153 Flood

"Developing highways and urban transportation construction?" the expert asked, "Director Wang Shi, do you know how much it costs here? Where does the money come from?" The country is in such difficulty now that good steel must be used on the cutting edge to build roads.

Where do the funds come from and who will pay for them?

"It's easy to say, who doesn't know, but where does the money come from?" some unit leaders in the audience said.

The leader of the supervision is the transportation-related department. Wang Shi's repair shop is still affiliated with the Maritime Administration of the Ministry of Transportation. It seems to be related, so he asked: "Director Wang, you raised the problem. Do you have any solution?"

"I think we can start from two aspects." Wang Shi looked at the other party and began to say: "First, introduce a car purchase surtax. When buying a car, you must pay an additional 10% surcharge. This tax is specifically paid to transportation.

The department is used to develop highway construction and traffic management; secondly, additional management fees are charged for newly built highways and bridges, which are used to recover investment and build new roads and bridges."

To put it more simply, the wool comes from the sheep. This means that the more cars are sold, the more roads will be built, forming a good situation of simultaneous development.

"This..." The supervisory leader on the stage looked at each other with the experts.

It makes sense. First, the tax revenue is increased for road construction. The more you buy, the more you receive.

As for those who object, then don’t buy a car.

There is more explanation on the issue of road tolls.

I built this road. I want to pass by it and leave money to buy the road.

Although there is a bit of gangster logic, people need money to build roads, so shouldn't they pay to cross the road?

The host immediately started talking in low voices. Later, as soon as Wang Shi came out with these two suggestions, they were immediately welcomed by the relevant units and leaders.

Because it embodies the principle of who pays and who benefits.

Next, Wang Shi talked about some methods, such as the selection of road operating units, how to operate, how long the operation will be, etc. He expressed his own ideas, and even proposed highway tolls.

Some highway companies participating in the meeting became lively.

This is a hen that can lay eggs. As long as the road is built, we will enjoy the benefits and start tolling. The more traffic there is, the higher the toll will be. I am afraid that there will not be many cars.

So various highway companies also stood up to support Wang Shi's method.

The meeting ended successfully, and everyone went back to their homes to find their respective mothers.

After the meeting, the regulatory authorities submitted the results of today’s meeting in writing to the higher authorities.

As a result, exploratory bidding has begun for some highways that are currently being planned and implemented.

Various highway companies also actively participated. With the addition of capital, some roads originally planned to be constructed in a few years were officially launched soon.

The Liaoning-Shenyang Expressway, the "first expressway to be built" in mainland China, which was originally planned to start construction three years later, started preparations for construction on June 27, 1982. The sections from Shenyang to Anshan and Dalian to Sansanlibu

The section was completed and put into toll operation four years later.

The construction of highways has also brought sales growth to Qianfeng tractor sales.

Some smart local farmers saw the signs and joined the car-buying army.

Villagers with certain financial conditions joined forces to buy tractors to move earth for the project and participated in the construction of the project. They made their money back in less than a year and a half.

In the remaining three years, he started to make profits. Oita made money and lived a life of 10,000 yuan a day earlier.

The implementation of the policy gave local governments hope, so many cities began bidding for road construction.

At 7:30 in the evening, the door of the Wang family mansion.

The Wang family watched the news broadcast and ate dinner.

Zhao Zhongxiang: Dear viewers, good evening!

Li Juan: Good evening!

Zhao Zhongxiang: Today is Friday, July 30, the tenth day of the sixth month of the lunar calendar. Welcome to the "Xinwen Lianbo" program.

Li Juan: Today’s main content is: In recent times, rainfall has increased north of the Yangtze River and south of the Yellow River, which has had a considerable impact on local people. On July 29, the water in the Yiluo River in Henan surged, and the peak flow of the Yihe River was 6,600 cubic meters.

m/s, the peak flow of the Luo River is 6,200 cubic meters/s. The embankment breach in the Luoyang suburban section of the upper reaches of the Yi River has a great impact on the production and life of the local people.

The screen switches to the live screen.

In the picture, all along the road from Yanshi County to Luohe Bridge are people's soldiers and people doing rescue and disaster relief.

The floods have reached the highway, and the villages are like isolated islands in the floods. Many people gathered at the water's edge and hesitated.

The water is now shallow and deep. In some places, the water is as deep as the waist. The water is swirling back and forth. Some people are pulling each other to look after each other. Looking up, the water is vast, and there is a yellow patch everywhere. Many crops have been submerged, and many liberation trucks are stranded on the roadside.

In the water, many surrounding houses have collapsed.

Zhao Zhongxiang: After the flood, local officers and soldiers and the people's public security team have joined the rescue and disaster relief teams. According to the frontline response, there are currently no casualties among the people, and there is an urgent need for clean drinking water, medicine and other relief supplies.

In the picture, the soldiers were running quickly carrying sandbags, and their entire bodies were covered with yellow mud.

"It's another flood. Look at these soldiers, it's so hard. It's like this every time." My mother said distressedly when she saw the People's Liberation Army soldiers who looked like clay figures in the picture.

yes.

This is the case every time. In several major floods decades later, the people's soldiers played the leading role, and touching heroic deeds such as Gao Jiancheng and Li Xiangyang emerged.

This is a fine tradition of our army. In the face of a catastrophic disaster, they charge forward regardless of their personal safety.

Seeing this, Wang Shi felt that he should do something, hurriedly finished his dinner and left home.

"I'm going out for a while, I might come back very late." Wang Shi said to his family.

When he came to the factory, the comrade from the security department who saw the gate said to Xu Jiazheng: "Go to the dormitory and tell the drivers in Zhengzhou that you don't have to go back tomorrow and wait for news from me."

"Okay." Xu Jiazheng didn't know what happened to the factory director, but he didn't ask.

After saying that, he drove to the old man's home.

The old man was still awake. After Wang Shi told him his purpose, he thought for a while and said, "Well, looking at it now, there is a shortage of transport vehicles, which is very detrimental to disaster relief. You happen to have a branch in Zhengzhou. I don't know how many there are.

Trolley?"

"When I came here, I called and asked. There are 11 vehicles at the Zhengzhou branch, which can be used for emergency rescue and disaster relief. We also have 15 vehicles that will drive from Beijing to Zhengzhou tomorrow morning. I plan to buy some urgently needed vehicles from here.

I'm sending the supplies back, I hope they can help, but I don't know what's urgently needed over there right now." Wang Shi said anxiously.

There used to be a maximum of eight vehicles, but now in an emergency, one person can only drive one back. Now one more vehicle means more effort.

This brings a total of 26 tractors, 15 of which are high-end hatchbacks, which greatly increases the transport capacity.

Wang Shi reported his plan to the old man.

The old man called Secretary Chen and asked him to find out what supplies were urgently needed over there.

The answer I got was drinking water, some medicines and food.

Wang Shi didn't care about the money at this time. The old man asked Secretary Chen to greet each unit. Wang Shi and his driver purchased a batch of urgently needed supplies overnight, filled 15 cars and 30 carriages, and drove to Zhengzhou overnight.

There are easy-to-cook things like flour and dried noodles, oil and salt, and of course some large plastic buckets, filling 30 carriages.
