Chapter 166 The line drawn by Duke Deng
People who have experienced the broken family and country have an identity with the country that others cannot match.
Only by losing can you know how to cherish it, and only by experiencing the pain of the broken family and country will you hope that the country will be stable, prosperous and strong.
These two old men are the most powerful among human spirits. Although they don’t understand finance, they just used the whole thing to reason about the same thing based on just one missed sentence by Zhang Lang.
"Wolf cub, we are not short of money either. Isn't it good to do a good job in business and make money?
How much money is? Just spend enough money!" Although Zhang Lang's father did not have the mental state of the two old men, he also thought it was inappropriate to do so.
Faced with the questioning of grandpa and grandpa, Zhang Lang did not dare to continue to hide it. If the two old men were angry, he would not be able to take advantage of it.
"Grandpa, grandpa, dad, listen to me, it's not what you think!
He joined the army at the age of fifteen. He fought no less than a hundred battles, battles and encounters in five years.
There were more than twenty scars on my body, and I almost died on the battlefield several times.
I say these to you, this country is the country I once protected with my life!
My feelings for her are no worse than you, and I will never do anything to harm the country."
"Then you compensate the country's money! Don't tell me that you didn't mean it!
Your expression has already told me that you did it on purpose, and you are very proud of your behavior!" Zhang Lang's grandfather is not that easy to deceive.
"I am proud of my behavior! Because I used six billion dollars to build a knife for long!
A knife that can cut off conservative, ignorant, greedy, and selfish!
With this knife, the country's reform and opening up will be less restrictive and more thinking, and the country's development will be much faster."
"Really? You used six billion US dollars to build a knife?" Zhang Lang's grandfather took a breath.
Zhang Lang's grandfather frowned and didn't say anything.
He is the real Eighth Route Army and the old Communist Party.
I have a certain understanding of the cruelty of the struggle. It was because of this that I refused to resettle the country and went home to farm.
"It's inconvenient to say that it's specific, I can only tell you that the country has not suffered any losses. I donated 5,000 kilometers of highways to the country."
"Highway? What is a highway?" Zhang Lang's grandfather asked in confusion.
"It is a road that specializes in running cars and cannot walk on pedestrians, bicycles and motorcycles. This kind of road, cars run very quickly, not less than 90 kilometers per hour, so it is called a highway!" Zhang Lang explained with a smile.
In 1985, there were no highways in China, and the first highway had just started construction.
It is the construction of Hujiagao, which started construction in 1984, and the total length of this highway is only 16 kilometers.
Therefore, highways are definitely new in the country.
Zhang Lang donated 5,000 kilometers of highway in one go, which was definitely a big deal.
You should know that the construction of Hujiagao, which only started last year, costs 16 kilometers to 200 million yuan.
It is equivalent to one meter and ten thousand yuan. This is the 6th Regiment of the Shanghai Garrison District and the Artillery Regiment. The officers and soldiers of the two regiments worked voluntarily for two months, saving a lot of labor costs.
The total construction cost of a 5,000-kilometer highway exceeds 70 billion yuan.
When Zhang Lang thought of this 5,000-kilometer high road, he became depressed.
In this era, the exchange rate between the US dollar and the RMB is too terrible.
This is an exchange rate unilaterally formulated by the state and is not recognized by the international community at all.
Due to insufficient foreign exchange reserves in the country, foreign exchange shortage in the domestic market has caused.
The National Bank exchanges 2.9 yuan per dollar, but on the private black market, one dollar can be exchanged for five yuan, or even higher.
For RMB 2.9 per dollar, RMB 700 million is required to be RMB 2.4 billion.
You can't think about this, the more you think about it, the more you feel depressed.
Zhang Lang's grandfather seemed to be unable to get along with Zhang Lang. The more Zhang Lang was afraid of, the more the old man asked, "Wolf cub, how much does it cost to build the highway of these five thousand kilometers?"
Zhang Lang replied weakly: "2.4 billion US dollars, 7.00 billion RMB!"
"Ah? I want so much money?" Zhang Lang's father couldn't help but scream.
"One meter and ten thousand yuan! What do you think?" Zhang Lang rolled his eyes and looked at his father.
"Wolf cub, good! When we have money, we can't forget the country. It was the country that trained you!" Zhang Lang's grandfather patted his thighs and praised with a smile.
Zhang Lang really wanted to say to his grandfather, your praise is too valuable.
Zhang Lang cheated the country's six billion US dollars, but donated 2.4 billion US dollars at once. It seems that Zhang Lang has suffered a huge loss, but in fact the account is not so settled.
Money is just a number for Zhang Lang, and what he wants is to convert money into success.
Since ancient times, there has been a saying that there are countless merits in building bridges and paving roads.
Zhang Lang inherited the position of the god of the land father-in-law, and relied on the merits accumulated by opening mountains and building roads.
So, Zhang Lang made a profit in this matter. Zhang Lang just paid for some useless green paper, but he reaped immeasurable merits.
Although the reason is this, it is still very depressed that you should be depressed.
At this time, Mr. Deng from Zhongnanhai was holding a meeting to discuss the establishment of the Gaolu Office.
If Zhang Lang knew what Mr. Deng said at the meeting, he would be even more depressed.
On the wall of the conference room, a big map of China hangs.
Mr. Deng took a red pencil and drew three red lines on the map.
These are the three highways we are preparing to build, namely Beijing-Guangdong-Gao, Beijing-Shanghai-Gao, and Beijing-Hao-Gao.
The people below were stunned. They looked at each other and saw the smile hidden in each other's eyes.
Finally, the acting General Secretary Zhao spoke, "Mr. Deng, isn't it a bit bad to do this?"
Because of Zhang Lang's luxurious sword, Secretary Hu resigned two years early and returned home to peacefully in his old age.
"Not good? What's wrong with it? Zhang Lang agreed to donate to build three highways, but he didn't say where these three highways came from!
As long as my highway finally arrives at Yangcheng, Magic City, and Ha City!
Zhang Lang had an objection and asked him to come to me. I would argue with him!" Deng Gong waved his right hand and said loudly.
There was also an unconcealed smile in his words.
"Okay! Then I will arrange for people to plan and design according to these three lines!
But... Can Zhang Lang take out so much money?
In case... our country's finances cannot afford it!"
"You guys! You're still too stingy! You can't see Comrade Zhang Lang clearly!
For him, this little money was a drop in the bucket!" Mr. Deng seriously scolded Member Wan, Executive Deputy Director of the Gaolu Office.
After scolding him, he couldn't help laughing.
"The same thing, you guys have a good route planning and design! I'll be responsible for other things."
Chapter completed!
