77: Chapter 77: Analyzing Prospects 77: Chapter 77: Analyzing Prospects At this time, the dishes were served, and it was a firepot meal.
Everyone started putting their dishes into the pot.
Qian Huixian was pouring alcohol for everyone.
Ji Yang smiled and said, “Don’t get drunk again.”
“What if I do get drunk?”
Ji Yang just laughed and said, “You always get drunk.”
“My alcohol tolerance is pretty good.”
Ji Yang didn’t want to say anything else.
Qian Huifang then asked, “What impact do you think the road construction will have?”
“The main reason our area couldn’t develop before was the problem of roads.
If we solve this road problem, first of all, the resources in the mountains can be traded externally.”
Qian Huizhen said, “You’re right.
I’ve been trading local resources for a while.
Even though the competition is tough, making money is still relatively easy.
I just said I can mobilize two million in funds.
If I mortgage my property and add in the house, I can come up with five or six million.”
“Who would have thought you’d be a wealthy woman!”
“Stop teasing. Thɪs chapter is updated by novel[f]ire.net
I’m no wealthy woman; I’m far from those rich people.”
Qian Huifang said, “Indeed, if I put everything forward, I could come up with tens of millions.”
Ji Yang was somewhat dazed, thinking to himself that indeed, getting close to a leader allowed for earnings beyond what others could imagine.
These two women really didn’t treat him as an outsider.
“If you’re bold enough to take the risk, I suggest you invest here once.”
“How should we invest?”
“Since you, sister, are engaged in trading local products, you can do the same here.”
“I mainly trade in medicinal materials.
Sometimes I don’t understand that stuff, so I’ve lost quite a bit.” Qian Huizhen was a bit embarrassed; she used to have help with this, but now she couldn’t handle it alone.
“Our township might build a trading center in the next step.
We’re just short on funds right now.
If you invest in this center, mountain goods and medicinal materials from the hills could be traded here, not just those items.
My idea is to create a business trading center, construct some shops for merchants to move into, and then develop projects for eating, staying, and playing inside.
People would want to go there once they arrive.
Also, we could build some residential houses.
Don’t civil servants have housing allowances and such?
And there are business owners who want opportunities here; they are willing to buy houses.
Furthermore, you can collect rent from shops on the streets…”
As Ji Yang described his vision, Qian Huifang’s eyes lit up, “If that’s the case, do you really think we can recoup the investment?”
Qian Huixian said, “Sister, I think it’s feasible.
If the road really gets built, this place will definitely have a market.”
Ji Yang said, “Now it’s just the matter of development qualifications and such.”
Qian Huifang, however, smiled, “I have some connections in that area; it’s not hard to get things done.
I’m just worried that there will be no buyers after development.”
“You don’t need to worry about selling.
There are dozens of civil servants in the township, and that will absorb some of it.
Besides, from what I understand, there are many people from our township who have made money outside.
They will surely want to help their families buy one or two properties.
Even if some sales don’t go through temporarily, as long as the trade area is developed, we can still make money.
Regarding the pressure of funding, here’s what I think: we can do presale of houses, and we can also seek cooperation from the township.”
“Will you help with that?”
Ji Yang shook his head, “Our Mayor He is eager to achieve results, and Secretary Yan wants success too.
You can talk to the two of them and push them to promote this.”
Qian Huixian didn’t understand and said, “This could be an achievement.
Why aren’t you doing it?
If it’s done, attracting investment would be your merit.”
Seeing everyone’s puzzled look, Ji Yang smiled and said, “If I help behind the scenes, it will be easier for you to get it done.
I don’t need the credit for now.
I’ve been promoted quickly in a short time; when I have more achievements, others will become jealous.
Keeping a low profile is the way to development!”
Qian Huizhen praised, “You really do think far ahead.”
Qian Huifang also looked at Ji Yang, discovering once again how capable he was.
Qian Huixian also set her admiring eyes on Ji Yang, realizing how much he had changed, becoming more and more formidable.
Ji Yang continued, “Among the two of them, I suggest reaching out to He Chengjun.
This man has a powerful network and can get things done easily.”
“But the money is still too little!” sighed Qian Huizhen.
Qian Huifang said, “Real estate development doesn’t need too much money.
A lot of it comes from banks, and presales are a great strategy.
I think this is doable.” Being someone experienced in the ways of the world, Qian Huifang had made her decision.
Qian Huifang also understood that without Secretary Zhang’s protection, they needed to find another way.
Now seeing how capable Ji Yang was, her heart somehow settled down.
Developing alongside Ji Yang might be a very good path.
Qian Huizhen didn’t have as many thoughts.
Now her whole heart was set on Ji Yang.
Since Ji Yang said it was doable, she decided to really give it a try.
“The land in the township is not expensive, and those farther away are even cheaper.
While everyone else is still unaware, you can secure more land for development.”
As they talked, several cups of alcohol had been consumed, and everyone was slightly tipsy.
“Right, when you develop, it’s best to include more folk cultural content in the design.
To build an area with ethnic style will be more attractive.
Inns and the like need to be established; the lodging conditions here are too poor.”
I’ll set up a mountain villa or something when the time comes,” Qian Huifang said with a laugh.
Ji Yang continued to talk enthusiastically about the prospects of tourism development here.
