Does it have to produce energy? A research reactor is probably not that expensive. It would guess it will be somewhere below or around $100 million. Commercial power reactors seem to be over $1 billion these days. If you want it on the cheap, a large enough pile of natural uranium or oxide will do if you add the right amount of moderator. Uranium oxide seems to be $85/lbs. I think you need about 100t of oxide for a minimalist design, so that's little over 200,000 pounds or less than $20 million. I don't think they would let you do that anywhere except maybe Osama's cave, but there you have it.

I can build you one for $100. But I have a big backlog right now and can't get to it until 2067. Sorry.

You can Also built a Nuclear Reactor next to 1000000 RsBut it on inevitably disloyal to a safe oneThe expense does irresistibly matterThe security that it hand down provide is the necessaby cost of the Reactor
