Chapter 1794

Guan Deyi and Wan Ping also cast questioning looks at Su Xinghui. Su Xinghui doing this was completely selfless and dedicated to helping others. Even with the road construction cooperation last time, he had yielded quite a few benefits to the other counties. What exactly was he aiming for?

If he were aiming for political achievements, the ones he had already obtained in Changshan County were enough. He could just lie on these laurels, sleep, and spend a year or two building seniority, and becoming a county magistrate would be more than enough. Moreover, he didn't need to take care of other counties for his own political achievements; if he just put all these investments into Changshan County, his achievements would be incredible.

As for aiming for other things, they couldn't think of anything Su Xinghui would want. This was exactly what puzzled them.

Su Xinghui smiled slightly and said, "If I said I wasn't aiming for anything, would you believe me?"

The three of them shook their heads together. Who would believe such words?

Su Xinghui said, "Then, just consider that I'm aiming for the country to be prosperous and the people to be at peace."

The three of them stared at Su Xinghui for a long while. Lai Bin gave a thumbs up and said, "Maybe others wouldn't believe this, but old Lai here believes it."

Guan Deyi also said, "Old Guan here believes it too. A person must always have some spirit, and I feel that you, Little Brother Su, do have that bit of spirit."

Wan Ping also nodded with a smile, gave a thumbs up to Su Xinghui, and said, "Admirable, admirable."

They had to believe it, because there was no other reason that could explain why Su Xinghui would do this. Although the current society is filled with material desires and such people are becoming fewer and fewer, they were all middle-aged men around fifty. Twenty years ago, they had seen such people, and therefore, they believed that such people must still exist today.

And Su Xinghui, he should be such a person.

They looked at Su Xinghui with awe.

Su Xinghui stood up and smiled, "A few big brothers, rest early. I also need to go home to accompany my wife. She is pregnant, so please excuse me."

The three of them also stood up together and said, "Since your wife is pregnant, you should indeed go back early to accompany her. You go back quickly, and we will rest immediately too."

Su Xinghui apologized to them and then went home.

The next morning, Yu Junchu was the first to arrive at the Changshan County government. The road between Wushui County and Changshan County was the best built, so he was naturally the fastest to arrive here.

Once he arrived at the Changshan County government and signed in, he said to Su Xinghui, "Xinghui, the funds from our province have been raised almost enough."

The news Yu Junchu brought was naturally good news. Su Xinghui nodded and said, "That's great, then there are no obstacles to this project."

The project funds for Jiangyou Province were around one billion. The Jiangyou provincial government could be said to have tightened their belts, and after specifically passing a discussion and agreement by the People's Congress, they launched government bonds within the province. These government bonds were issued in the cities through which the expressway passed.

When the common people in these cities learned that an expressway was going to be built there, they were all overjoyed and eagerly bought the government bonds. In less than a month, the one hundred million yuan in government bonds issued by Jiangyou Province were snapped up. Added to the two hundred million in matching funds from the Jiangyou provincial treasury, they raised a total of three hundred million.

For the remaining seven hundred million, the Jiangcheng Meat Processing Group undertook two hundred million, and the Jianggang Group undertook five hundred million. Just like that, the one billion yuan in project funds required for the Jiangyou section was complete.

Su Xinghui said with emotion, "Your province even issued one hundred million yuan in government bonds, and they actually sold out so quickly. It really wasn't easy."

If it were in Hudong Province, this one hundred million yuan in government bonds really wouldn't count for much. However, for a province with an underdeveloped economy like Jiangyou, issuing one hundred million yuan in government bonds was really not easy, and being able to sell them out so quickly was even less easy.

Yu Junchu said, "Our county also issued bonds, two million. At that time, I saw the scene of the issuance at the bank; it was bustling with activity. Some people withdrew their fixed deposits early and bought the bonds on the spot. They lost quite a bit of interest, but they had no complaints, saying that as long as the expressway could be built, it wouldn't matter if the money wasn't returned to them."

Such a scene was naturally very moving. Su Xinghui and Yu Junchu both understood that this was because the transportation situation in Jiangyou Province was truly too poor. Now that everyone saw the hope of building an expressway, they were naturally willing to tighten their belts to support it. They felt the heavy responsibility on their shoulders even more; no matter what, they had to get this expressway built well.

Su Xinghui said, "With such support, we have no more reasons not to build this road well."

Yu Junchu nodded and said, "Yes, we must not only build the road well, but also develop the economy so that the common people can all live a good life."

Su Xinghui smiled and said, "Therefore, our Tianyue Mountain Range Economic Cooperation Forum must also be held successfully."

Yu Junchu smiled and said, "This forum was organized by you; it will definitely be held successfully. I have confidence in you."

Su Xinghui said, "You also need to cooperate well."

Regarding the matter of the Tianyue Mountain Range Economic Cooperation Zone, Su Xinghui and Yu Junchu had discussed it together many times. Therefore, Yu Junchu was very clear about some of the operational methods of this cooperation zone. Yu Junchu nodded and said, "This is certainly no problem. I will definitely help you beat the drums and trick these county magistrates into joining."

Su Xinghui laughed loudly and said, "What you said is wrong. What do you mean by tricking them into joining? This matter is completely beneficial to them, isn't it? I've put so much effort into organizing this cooperation zone; is it just for the sake of tricking them?"

Yu Junchu smiled and said, "Alright, alright, I know you are selfless, okay?"

The two of them looked at each other and smiled knowingly, suddenly feeling like soulmates.
