Reborn in 1991, helping dad become the richest man

Chapter 271: Facing floods, invest in hydropower stations!

On August 4th, the Olympics in the Eagle Empire ended, but the perpetrators of the bombing have not been caught yet.

Normally, this kind of thing would attract a lot of attention.

But on this day, not many people in the country had the leisure to pay attention to what was happening on the Eagle Empire's side.

Because the news on TV is everywhere reporting on flood disasters in many places in the south.

Tang Yichen was in the capital, and it didn't rain much during this period, but in the southern region, it had been raining continuously for the past half month.

Especially in the central region, floods are everywhere. Even in Tang Yichen's hometown, it is the same.

As the place where the Tang family made their fortune, the river was originally flooded with small fish and shrimps, which became the source of wealth for the Tang family and even the entire village that radiated to several nearby villages.

But now, the river that once brought wealth has become the ruthless hand of misfortune.

Wherever the flood passed, people were fleeing everywhere.

Homes were flooded and people were displaced.

Fortunately, the early rice has been harvested at this time of year, so the damage to food is not great.

But the floods everywhere are just as worrying.

All places are fighting floods and carrying out rescue work.

Wanhua is regarded as the pride of the nation by the people, and Tang Xionghua is now the richest man, so naturally he cannot just stand by and watch.

Wanhua immediately announced the purchase of 100 million RMB worth of relief supplies to be sent to various locations to help the victims.

Yang Lai also took out 100 million yuan to rescue the disaster area.

Two hundred million, taken out with a wave of the hand in 1996, is definitely not a small sum.

Of course, even so, there are still people among the people who say that Tang Xionghua is stingy.

Because you, Tang, the richest man, are worth tens of billions of dollars, and the two hundred million now is too shabby to take out.

Of course, Tang Xionghua could not hear these voices, and local newspapers did not dare to publish them.

It would be fine for some brainless people to talk about it in private, but to publish such things in newspapers shows that they are really not afraid of death.

Isn’t Tang Xionghua’s donation of 200 million enough?

Anyone with a little common sense knows that net worth and cash are two different things.

What's more, although this year's floods seem to be everywhere, to be honest, the losses incurred nationwide are indeed huge.

But it’s not serious, that’s all.

In fact, floods occur every rainy season, but this year's is just a little bigger.

In Beijing, it has been raining since the 3rd.

But the rain was not heavy and it stopped from time to time.

At the moment, Tang Yichen was sitting at home, standing at the window, watching the rain outside and listening to the news on the TV behind him.

Tang Yichen's eyes were a little dull.

He's thinking about things.

It’s not that I’m worried, I’m thinking about the flood disaster.

The disaster situation is still under control.

Although floods occurred in various places, there were few casualties. Most of the villages along the rivers in the south were flooded, and the newly planted rice seedlings in the paddy fields were soaked, and they may need to be replanted later.

This time, it was mainly property damage.

But then again, people these days didn't have much property, and having a TV at home was considered wealthy.

When a flood comes, you can just carry the TV upstairs or just run away with it to avoid it.

It is even more impossible for a family's private car to be flooded.

At most, some motorcycles were soaked in water.

In comparison, the fish ponds suffered the greatest losses. Many houses these days will also be washed away by floods due to quality problems. In addition, public facilities and some rural areas will have their grain stored at home that has not been sold or paid as public grain will be flooded.

However, compared with the great flood in 1998 that Tang Yichen remembered, this year's flood disaster was indeed not too serious.

In fact, there was no accurate time record of this flood disaster in Tang Yichen's memory at all.

Because when I was a child in the countryside in my previous life, I saw floods almost every year. This year it was just a little bigger.

Even when Tang Yichen called home, his grandfather said that nothing serious happened at home.

The water level was about one meter higher than in previous years. Only some rice fields and fish ponds were flooded near my home.

Some people's homes were flooded and some of their food was destroyed.

There were losses, but no one was reported drowned.

Therefore, what Tang Yichen was thinking about now was actually the flood in 1998. This flood reminded Tang Yichen.

At the beginning of his rebirth, Tang Yichen thought about the flood in 1998.

But I was powerless to make any changes.

But now, it is no longer the same as before.

The Tang family has risen. Although they cannot completely change the overall situation, they can still contribute to the flood disaster two years later.

And this contribution is not about donating supplies for disaster relief.

This does not solve the fundamental problem.

And now Tang Yichen also likes to think about problems from a businessman's perspective.

Therefore, Tang Yichen came up with a way to make money and control the flood.

Invest heavily in building hydropower stations.

Nowadays, for example, in my hometown, there is no need to build a large hydropower station.

With five million, you can find a suitable place and build a hydropower station with a capacity of three to five thousand kilowatts.

The reservoir equipped with this type of hydropower station is definitely not small.

Given the situation in my hometown, a reservoir equipped with a hydropower station of this size can, if not completely solve the annual floods, at least control the flood situation. If the water level pressure is really too high, there will also be time to notify the people downstream to evacuate.

And, most importantly, it's a win-win situation.

Taking my hometown as an example, if we invest five million, we can build a hydropower station with a capacity of only 3,000 kilowatts.

Based on the annual power generation time of 3,000 hours, 9 million kilowatt-hours of electricity are generated annually.

The current on-grid electricity price in my hometown.

It should be around 20 cents at one point.

Well, this on-grid electricity price is not the price for the public to use electricity, it is the price for selling electricity to the power bureau.

In this way, the annual electricity revenue should be around 1.8 million.

The profit is not high. Of the 1.8 million, at least 100,000 to 200,000 must be spent on annual maintenance of the power station.

This is equivalent to a profit of just over 1.6 million yuan a year, and it will take three years to recover the investment.

However, this type of business is also truly long-term real estate.

You should know that the operating life of a small or medium-sized hydropower station is 50 years, and that of a large one is more than 100 years.

In this kind of situation, apart from being ruined by the interruption of water flow, there is almost no possibility of losing money.

What's more, Tang Yichen thought about this matter because there are too few water conservancy projects in this era.

In this era, the investment and construction of hydropower stations must be targeted at those places where there are large rivers and rivers with severe floods every year. It is not like they are going to dig artificial lakes and build small hydropower stations to make money. How can they possibly stop the flow and go bankrupt?

The more Tang Yichen thought about it, the more he felt that he could do it.

So he turned around and made a call with his cell phone. After learning that the villa at home had been almost repaired, Tang Yichen decided not to stay in the capital any longer.

Let Hu Dajun notify everyone.

On the 6th, Tang Yichen set out to return to Chuzhou.

The matter is too big to be discussed over the phone.

After all, Tang Yichen is still a child.
