Chapter 2603

Shi Chengxin said it more tactfully, but Tao Hongfang already understood what the other party wanted to express: "So the land around the train station is what you call a condition of exchange?"

Shi Chengxin did not deny Tao Hongfang's statement: "If Brother Tao wants to understand it this way, it is not impossible."

Tao Hongfang said: "It seems that Brother Shi thinks this practice is normal?"

Shi Chengxin said: "As far as I know, Brother Tao works in the Ministry of Commerce? Maybe Brother Tao is not familiar with the implementation process of such large projects, and may even have misunderstandings. In fact, these land transactions are the same as the subsequent construction processes.

One of the means for us to achieve the goal of the Hangzhou-Ningbo Railway. Compared with the rationality of the means, of course the final result is more important. I think this truth needs no further explanation, and Brother Tao can understand it."

Tao Hongfang would not be easily fooled by his clichés, and he just said reluctantly: "I would like to hear the details, and please give me brother Shi's advice!"

Seeing Tao Hongfang's attitude of wanting to get to the bottom of the matter, Shi Chengxin couldn't help but smile bitterly and said: "Since Brother Tao is so interested in this, I will simply explain it."

Regarding who is qualified to acquire these in-demand land in advance, Shi Chengxin gave two screening criteria.

One is the major patrons who have already invested in subscribing for railway bonds in the early stage. The amount subscribed by these people is often tens of millions of dollars, and these contributions are not without expectation of return. In addition to winning the favor of senior officials, they naturally also hope

These long-term investments can be used to obtain more benefits from the government.

In the eyes of the government, some better-located plots of land near the train station and along the railway line are very cost-effective exchange conditions. These major customers who subscribe for railway bonds are also happy to accept such conditions. After all, these lands have huge potential for appreciation in the future.

, the current acquisition is simply a sure profit. These customers are basically large businessmen with strong local economic strength in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and they are also happy to use this form to establish a good cooperative relationship with the new government.

As for the second criterion, the reasons are more sufficient. The Hangzhou-Nanjing Railway organized by the Haihan official organization will pass through several states and counties. Only a small part of the land occupied by the project is unclaimed land, so land acquisition is a very thorny issue.

.

Not long after Haihan took over the Jiangsu and Zhejiang areas, it was time to establish a positive image. Sensitive issues such as land acquisition must be handled carefully, neither buying or selling by force, nor being forced to raise prices. Therefore, during the land acquisition period, the officials did not

Announce the plan for the Hangzhou-Nanjing Railway to avoid being exploited by interested parties.

Landowners who are willing to cooperate with the government during this period can naturally obtain certain benefits, such as obtaining land with excellent locations along the railway through replacement or supplementation.

"For example, the land for Hangzhou Railway Station was originally purchased by the government from five landowners. In addition to the land purchase price, one of the conditions of the transaction was to set aside a piece of land near the railway station as compensation for land acquisition. But this is definitely

The conditions cannot be made public, otherwise official projects will inevitably encounter a lot of trouble in the land acquisition process in the future. In the eyes of uninformed people, this may become a secret operation that violates regulations."

Shi Chengxin patiently explained the content of the two standards to Tao Hongfang, which sounded reasonable. However, Tao Hongfang did not comment after hearing this. After all, these were the words of Shi Chengxin's family and there was no credible circumstantial evidence.

, he will not accept it easily. And the information he learned from Dai Shao can show that Shi Chengxin's words are still untrue.

But Tao Hongfang also wanted to try his best to avoid dragging Dai Shao into the water, so he couldn't directly question Shi Chengxin. After thinking about it, he could only ask insinuatingly: "Apart from the businessmen who subscribed for railway bonds and the landowners who participated in the land acquisition process, are there other

People get all this land around the train station?”

Tao Hongfang clearly remembered that Dai Shao once mentioned that a Hainan Island trading company with unknown background was also one of the new landlords. This should not be among the two screening criteria mentioned by Shi Chengxin, and there was probably something else going on.

Shi Chengxin said: "It's not impossible...for example, if our own people like Brother Tao also want to participate in the subsequent development and construction, they have to find a way to arrange it."

"Oh? So besides me, someone else has actually come to see Brother Shi for this?" Tao Hongfang's mind was spinning very fast, and he immediately tasted a different flavor from Shi Chengxin's words.

.

The "own people" they talked about were, of course, the relatives of the time travellers. This circle may not be big, but it is certainly not small. Just the second generation travelers like them have a scale of thousands.

Everyone. If you include the relatives brought by various marriages, the number of people is very considerable.

Of course, being related to the first-generation time travellers does not mean that you can run wild outside. There are also three, six, and nine levels in this circle. When you go to overseas areas far away from Hainan Island to get resources, you have to let them go.

Shi Chengxin nodded in approval. This was probably not a treatment that ordinary characters could enjoy.

But Shi Chengxin obviously didn't want to talk about the matter in depth, so he joked: "We are all our own people. Of course we will provide whatever convenience we can, and we should take care of each other."

When Tao Hongfang heard this, the other party obviously admitted his guess. Sure enough, someone from Hainan Island also benefited from it. No wonder the previous mention of the land around the train station made Shi Chengxin mistakenly think that he wanted to share it there.

He wanted a piece of the pie, so he offered to negotiate for a piece of land.

However, Shi Chengxin admitted that the person who acquired the land was an insider, and Tao Hongfang found it difficult to continue the investigation. Firstly, as an official of the Ministry of Commerce, he was suspected of overstepping his authority when investigating the matter, so Shi Chengxin did not have to cooperate. Secondly, if

Adopting a tough attitude may make Shi Chengxin mistakenly think that it is Tao Donglai who wants to investigate the matter. By then, this may not be about the railway project, and may even escalate into a struggle between the executive committee and the Donghai Region. Simply

The problem will become more complicated.

Tao Hongfang wanted to get to the bottom of it, but he didn't want to cause trouble, let alone a situation that could not be ended. So when the investigation reached this point, he had to take the initiative to stop it, and immediately thanked Shi Chengxin and said goodbye.

In fact, Shi Chengxin didn't really understand Tao Hongfang's real intention until this time. It was his first time to deal with Tao Hongfang face-to-face, and he didn't know what the other party was doing. At first, he thought that the other party was here to investigate the land acquisition for the railway project.

The problem, it turned out later, seemed to be different. The information the other party had was extremely limited, and he didn't even know much about the various methods involved in the land acquisition process.

But no matter what, the uninvited guest was finally sent away safely without leakage, and Shi Chengxin let out a sigh of relief.
