Finally, Li Yaolin agreed to the proposal to add a route from Liantou Port.
She fully understood the shareholders' desire to make money, and did not want the existing route to be too busy and cause any accidents. So after negotiation, the shareholders agreed to open a new route from Liantou Port to Xingzhou Island, provided that the total number of passengers carried per day does not exceed 4,000.
The route is initially scheduled to have eight trips per day (one-way), with the earliest ship at 8:40 and the last ship at 15:40. There will be a ship every other hour, and the ticket price is 20 yuan one way.
At that time, a double-decker passenger ship with a capacity of about 200 people will be purchased for this route.
After this route is put into use, the current route from Baoren Port to Xingzhou Island will reduce some flights and adjust to 24 flights a day (one-way), with a 20-minute interval between each flight and the ticket price remains unchanged.
With one more route, tourists will have one more choice: previously there was only one route, and tourists could only buy round-trip tickets. When the new route is opened, tourists can freely choose the pier to enter and exit the island.
However, Xingzhou Island still lacks a pier corresponding to the Liantou Port channel - the original pier does have a suitable berth, but the channel must pass through the protection area, otherwise it can only take a long detour, and the time spent will double.
Peng Shaoyi represented Qianlai Travel to apply for the new route. Xingzhou Island was responsible for building a new pier, renting a pier at Liantou Port, and building a ticket office and waiting hall and other supporting facilities.
As a newly built port, the economy and population density in the Liantou Port area are not as good as Baoren Port, and many facilities are not very complete. If infrastructure such as a ticket office is to be built, the project will inevitably be more than that of Baoren Port.
Li Yaolin took time to go to the township where Liantou Port is located for several research and investigation.
The township where Liantou Port is located is currently repairing the road. Although the cement has not yet been laid, the outline can already be seen. There is a mountain range next to it. To the south of the mountain range is an undeveloped beach with rough sand and beautiful shells.
The local villagers call this place "Jiahai", which means sailing. It is a name that has been passed down for many years.
Going around the Jiahai coastline to the west side of the mountain range is a fishing village and the second section of Jiahai beach. Because this section of the beach is adjacent to the fishing village and there is a road that has been built long ago, you can see many tourists here. They camp, barbecue and fish here, which is very comfortable. Although the
environment of Jiahai is not as good as that of Xingzhou Island, it is better than that of the Island Park.
Li Yaolin couldn't help but think of Fang Xinhua's words... There are indeed many bays in the oil market that are worth developing.
The reason why no businessman invested in Jiahai for a long time may be because it is far away from the city, with inconvenient transportation and low development value.
But it has the potential to develop into a coastal tourist attraction. Once the terminal or way station of the tourist bus route is determined to be set here, and the popularity and fame of Xingzhou Island are taken advantage of, it will soon become one of the popular scenic spots in the oil market.
Li Yaolin has completely seen through Fang Xinhua's calculations. Even if she doesn't plan to invest and develop here with him, he will definitely develop it with others.
Of course, Fang Xinhua may not be the only one who has such an idea.
If the government wants to develop the economy, it will definitely need businessmen to invest in the development of coastal tourism. So others only see that Xingzhou Island has become a popular tourist attraction in a short period of time and has made a lot of money, but the government sees that it is one of the economic pillar industries that can be developed in the oil market lagging behind in the future.
The government has already started the overall layout, and Xingzhou Island is just one of the "chess pieces" in the plan.
Li Yaolin does not care what role Xingzhou Island plays in this economic development plan. If she can successfully rent the pier and build supporting facilities such as ticket sales at the new pier, whether the government wants to attract investment to develop the beach here or use the popularity of Xingzhou Island to develop rural tourism economy, she welcomes it.
...
Many people were happy to see the opening of a shipping route from Xingzhou Island to Liantou Port, so the application for the shipping route and the construction of an additional pier went smoothly and was approved before the Chinese New Year.
Liantou Port Pier is 3.5 nautical miles northeast of Xingzhou Island, so Li Yaolin chose the east side of Xingzhou Island as the shipping channel can avoid the protected area.
The planned length of the East Pier is 81 meters, of which the trestle bridge is 17 meters and the width is 8 meters. A guardrail is installed in the middle to divide the island into an entrance channel and an exit channel, and no separate exit pier is built.
In addition, a breakwater with a total length of 330 meters and a width of 2 meters at the top of the levee will be built. After a 20% discount, the estimated cost of the project is about 10 million yuan. In addition to the infrastructure such as the ticket office built at the East Pier and the Liantou Port Pier, a total of 16 million yuan will be invested.
Li Yaolin: "..."
Is it too late to withdraw the application now? The money
earned last year has just been received for a month and it hasn't even warmed up yet, and most of it has to be spent again!
Just when Li Yaolin was distressed that his wallet had shrunk significantly, the APP asked whether to build a breakwater + East Pier. The interface showed a countdown, and after 10 seconds, it automatically selected OK.
[Breakwater and East Pier were successfully built! ]
Li Yaolin: "?!"
What's wrong with the system? Is it stuck?
Is there a bug?
Why did it automatically select Confirm?
The little mermaid: "The APP has been updated. When the island owner is planning a construction project, if he does not click cancel within ten seconds, it will be automatically confirmed!"
Li Yaolin: "..."
Good guy, he updated it without saying a word, and without any reminder at all.
Is the sea god afraid that she has too much money in her pocket?
The little mermaid took out a piece of watermelon and said while eating: "Who let the island owner hesitate for a long time? This is to train the island owner to develop a decisive style of doing things and establish a positive image of the island owner."
Li Yaolin twitched her lips: Thank you so much!
Others commented that her style of doing things was willful, and she felt that the ancestor of the sea god was more willful than her... Her style was brought out by the sea god.
…
The construction period of the breakwater, East Pier and Liantou Port Ticket Office is more than three months. If the construction starts after the Spring Festival, it can be completed before May Day. Therefore, when Li Yaolin was at the Qianlai Tourism meeting, she also confirmed with Fang Xinhua and other shareholders that the new channel would be opened in mid-to-late April.
Qianlai Tourism must solve the problems of passenger ships, flights, employees and publicity before then to ensure that the new pier can be put into use smoothly.
This decision was made after Li Yaolin got the accurate information that Jiaotong Group would open a tourist bus line in Liantou Port. Otherwise, she would not be willing to do such a loss-making transaction.
The little mermaid came out to make trouble again: "When the island owner planned the pier, in addition to reserving berths for passenger ships, he also preset more than 50 berths for yachts! Even if the new route cannot be successfully launched, the yacht and sailing projects can still be developed to make a profit!"
Li Yaolin sighed: "I was thinking of giving you a raise after the New Year, it seems that you don't want it very much!"
The little mermaid: "..."
It pretended to be shy and said: "Disgusting~ I am praising the island owner for his thoughtfulness and maturity and stability that is inconsistent with his age!"
Li Yaolin: It feels exaggerated, but not completely exaggerated.
At this time, Li Yaolin's cell phone rang. She looked at the caller ID and was amused: "Lawyer Wu, it's not the Chinese New Year yet, why are you calling me to wish me a happy New Year so soon?" Lawyer Wu
: "..."
She was speechless for a moment and said, "If wishing you a happy New Year is also a service within the scope of the law, I can wish you a happy New Year every day."
Li Yaolin calculated in her mind that 100 services a year would be 80,000 yuan, and 365 services would have to start at 300,000 yuan? She
couldn't afford to wish you a happy New Year. She really couldn't afford to wish you a happy New Year this year.
She said, "Well, Lawyer Wu, you have a bit of a humorous talent."
The period around the Spring Festival is the busiest time for the law firm. Lawyer Wu didn't have time to joke with her and directly told her the purpose of her call: "The second trial verdict has come down, and I'm reporting the result to you."
Li Yaolin was stunned for a few seconds before she remembered that it was a lawsuit she filed against Sun Fen for slander. Although only four months have passed, Sun Fen has been delaying the court date with various excuses. After losing once, he continued to sue because he was dissatisfied with the verdict... After so much trouble for so long, because many things were handled by Lawyer Wu, she almost forgot about it.
"He also won this lawsuit. According to your request, he needs to apologize to you publicly on social software such as WeChat Moments, Vblog, and alumni groups, and in newspapers, restore your reputation, and compensate you 500 yuan..."
Although Sun Fen did not have to be sentenced, after this incident, he no longer has the courage to provoke Li Yaolin again.
Moreover, asking him to apologize publicly was tantamount to public execution. The rumors he had spread and the damage to Li Yaolin's reputation were all returned to him doubly.
Lin Qitong ran to Li Yaolin excitedly: "Sanniang, look in the group!"
Li Yaolin asked: "What group?"
Lin Qitong only then remembered that Li Yaolin had blocked Sun Fen, so she couldn't see Sun Fen's speech. She showed her phone to Li Yaolin. There was only Sun Fen's apology statement in the group, and the group owner did a very clever operation. She muted the group and set his apology as a group announcement. In this way, everyone who clicked on the group could see his apology statement.
Although the group was muted, Lin Qitong knew that it must be very lively in private.
As expected, she used her secondary account to lurk in other groups, and those groups had already exploded. Many freshmen knew the names of Li Yaolin and Sun Fen because of this incident.
When the freshmen were discussing gossip, one of the girls said, "The name Li Yaolin is the same as the name of the owner of Xingzhou Island!"
"Could they be the same person?" "They must be the
same name. How could a wealthy woman with a net worth of over 100 million be a recent graduate? Moreover, the 'Li Yaolin' in our school often worked part-time to earn money for her studies while studying. She doesn't look rich at all."
"Well, I thought, if this senior sister is the owner of the island, I wonder if we alumni can use the back door when we travel..."
"You are dreaming, who has the ability to use the back door to go to Xingzhou Island?"
Lin Qitong couldn't help but speak anonymously: "Rumor has it, there is a senior sister in our school who works on Xingzhou Island!"
"Wow, please give me the senior sister's contact information!"
"Really? I don't believe it, unless you send me the senior sister's phone number privately so that I can verify its authenticity."
"I can hear your calculations even outside the school."
...
The freshmen were very enthusiastic, but Lin Qitong restrained the urge to continue revealing the news. She put away her phone and said to Li Yaolin, "They just missed the correct answer perfectly just like I did back then."
Li Yaolin looked at her with a smile, "I see you are very proud!"
"I didn't lie. You, Brother Xuan and I all work here. There's no need to hide this!"
At this point, she said with great regret, "Hey, if I wasn't worried that your background would be exposed and someone would target you for kidnapping or something, I really wanted to tell them the truth! Also, if I didn't go home after National Day and met Sun Fen, I would definitely slap him in the face..."
"By the way, I heard that he was fired by his original company. His colleagues all know about it and they dare not hire him for the time being. Now he is sending out resumes everywhere. He is as arrogant as he can be. He really deserves it!"
Li Yaolin listened quietly, and waited for her to finish gossiping before saying: "The Holiday Inn is about to be renovated. Although it cannot be opened during the Spring Festival, we still need to do a good job of publicity in advance."
Lin Qitong's shoulders drooped: "Isn't it good to chat about gossip during the break?"
Li Yaolin tapped the time displayed on the mobile phone screen with her fingertips: "The break ended ten minutes ago."
Lin Qitong immediately straightened up, entered the working state, and said: "I will write the publicity plan right away."
The author has something to say:
Island owner: I wanted to deposit the money I earned into the bank to earn interest, but I didn't expect it!
