(Repaying Debts Chapter 3)
This is of course a story for later, and the time goes back to shortly after the winery project was finalized.
Zhang Hongcheng and two experts took the Hong Kong businessmen to another investment location.
The quarry that H County applied to build was finally built.
The only difference is that the location is not Xiaoyun Mountain, which has been allocated to County D, but Goutou Mountain in the south.
Of course, Zhang County also wrote to the city last year to change the name of this place to Longshou Mountain.
There has always been a medium-sized quarry on Goutou Mountain. This time it was simply taken back from the township and expanded in the county.
Goutou Mountain, no, the stones produced on Longshou Mountain include marble.
The marble from the northwest has a characteristic: the black and white are not so pure, and it has some red or green streaks. However, it is more suitable for carving than marble from other places.
Before Zhang Hongcheng expanded the Longshou Mountain quarry, the marble from H County was not competitive compared to marble from other places. Moreover, given the transportation conditions in H County, not much marble products could be shipped out due to their weight.
But the second project that Zhang Hongcheng was going to discuss with Hong Kong businessmen was the marble products factory.
Moreover, several Hong Kong businessmen begged Zhang Hongcheng to allow them to invest in the Longshoushan Marble Products Factory in H County!
It has to be said that there are countless talented people on the Internet in later generations.
Someone once dug out the unattractive green or red colors from Northwest marble, ground them into powder, and then used chemical processing to infiltrate the powder solution into the red and green stripes of the marble with peculiar patterns.
Red + green = yellow.
"Natural golden striped marble" appeared openly in the online store, but unfortunately, before the store could make a splash, the secret was leaked due to internal disputes.
Moreover, because this golden effect will fade when exposed to strong floor cleaning liquid, it quickly disappeared in the tide of the Internet.
Zhang Hongcheng calculated that it would take at least fifteen to twenty years before the cleaning liquid that could fade the special effects of marble was available, which would be enough time for the H County Marble Factory to make a fortune.
He did not take the initiative to show this "natural" marble to several Hong Kong businessmen, but it was a good thing "accidentally" discovered by two masters in the same field.
The Longshou Mountain golden marble is a first-class Feng Shui material!
Zhang Hongcheng plans to sell this thing as a luxury item in Hong Kong Island and the South.
The market price is more than twenty times that of ordinary marble, of which the three times premium is the "consultation fee" of the two "Hong Kong Island marble experts".
The craftsmen in the quarry were all skilled, and Zhang Hongcheng was able to make most of the later sculpture figures he brought in after just a few tries.
In addition to the marble screens, lions and other Feng Shui items that these Hong Kong businessmen urgently needed, Zhang Hongcheng also asked the quarry to carve more lions to attract wealth.
He planned to give it to the investment promotion departments of the special economic zones in the south.
It would be best if every house had a stone lion with the words "Specially supplied from Longshou Mountain in H County" made of gold-patterned marble placed at the door.
The kind with a phone on the base….
By the end of April, the three joint venture projects introduced by H County this year had gradually gotten on track.
They are Guquanshan Winery, Longshoushan Stone Carving Factory and H County Hongqi Handicraft Branch Factory.
Just three days before several Hong Kong businessmen were about to leave H County, a seemingly insignificant incident occurred.
The two masters stopped Ms. Chen Beilei at the door of the guesthouse in front of several Hong Kong businessmen.
The focus of their attention was the new string of beads made from polished tree hearths that appeared in Chen Beilei's hand.
"This is the heartwood of a boxwood tree. It has a rather strange texture!"
"No, this boxwood is a little weird. These patterns are a good omen!"
"Miss Chen, where did this come from?"
"I'm asking where this heartwood comes from?"
The masters performed without any trace of acting, and the way their eyes sparkled yet they forced themselves to be deeply restrained was so convincing.
Zhang Hongcheng almost believed it on the spot.
In the end, as expected, the masters discovered that the tree heartwood was from the hairy-fruited boxwood in Panlongyu, L County next door.
"Panlongyu!!!"
The two masters suddenly "tacitly" stopped making any statement, which attracted the private attention of several Hong Kong businessmen.
From the next day on, Hong Kong businessmen occasionally heard waiters privately discussing the boxwood hearts of Panlongyu in the neighboring county while dining.
It seems that someone is buying it secretly. After a Hong Kong businessman paid a fee, he finally got the exact news - the purchase price of a piece of high-quality Muxin wood is as high as 15 yuan!
Three Mu Xins would be a month’s salary!
On the third day, two other masters who were far away in Hong Kong Island finally came down and joined the feast.
They called "privately" and asked several Hong Kong businessmen to help them collect more Panlong boxwood heartwood, and fifty yuan each was no problem.
The news spread quickly in Hong Kong Island, and the guest room phones of these people kept ringing.
At the end of April, an invisible trend began to spread from H County to the surrounding areas - the boxwood tree heartwoods in Panlongyu, L County!
In less than a week, the private purchase price had risen from 15 yuan to 25 yuan. More and more people went to Panlongyu to cut down trees, and many of them almost went crazy.
The police in H County acted the fastest, suppressing any signs as soon as they appeared. Anyone doing this business in the county would be detained.
So several subordinates of Hong Kong businessmen appeared in L County and D County to secretly help people purchase tree hearts.
In early May, the evil trend of cutting down trees was finally stopped as the two masters left with a word "we were wrong".
But in fact, a few days before they left, Panlong Valley had been cut down into barren mountains and hills.
Due to someone's secret interference in many aspects, Panlongyu became what it is today thirteen years ahead of schedule.
