I guess paying for labour isn't something that can happen, it has to be slaves.

Well the US has slavery for prisoners(13th amendment), yet STILL no modern rail infrastructure.

The secret to it being affordable, doesn't mean it can't be done any other way. Authoritarian government also helped a lot in getting it done this fast but still doesn't mean it can't be done. Just not as fast and as cheap as China did.
