Chen Yang spent a long time wandering on the plateau this time. In addition to spinach, he also found peach trees, apricot trees, and cherry trees.
However, these fruit trees have too long a growth cycle and are not suitable for planting at present. He noted down the location so he could come and pick the fruit later.
In addition, Chen Yang also found one or two extinct animals, which made Weng Ji very happy.
Chen Yang was already thinking about how to raise money, because the design plan for the New Micro World Inn had been finalized and construction could officially begin.
Ye Wu and Hong Gui smelted a large piece of gold, but because of its low purity, Lu Lin bought it at the market price of 5 million yuan.
5 million yuan may seem like a lot, but most of the money was used as public funds for Microworld, with only 3 million yuan used as the first phase investment for the new Microworld Inn.
Once construction begins, significant investment is inevitable.
Eighty percent of the New Micro World Inn is made of wood, and this wood is not ordinary wood. Chen Yang alone spent nearly a million yuan to purchase the wood.
In addition, all their furniture is either handmade by old craftsmen or acquired from existing handmade products.
The prices are even more outrageous. The chairs in each room cost no less than 3,000 yuan, while the tea table and chairs in the tea room were purchased by Xing Tu at a friendly price from an old tea master, costing more than 600,000 yuan.
Wooden tables weren't suitable for the lobby, so we opted for simple, elegant sofas instead, which are estimated to cost over 100,000 yuan.
These are the soft furnishings; Chen Yang also tried to use the best materials for the hard furnishings.
Many materials require a substantial deposit to purchase. In addition, many components are too complex. Yunshi can design them, but they lack the ability to manufacture them, so they need to hire some experienced carpenters, which is another major expense.
In short, 3 million is just a small appetizer; the big prize is coming soon.
Because they could always find better materials and items, and because it was indeed quite convenient to make money from Microworld, their design plans were revised many times, and the budget increased each time.
The design company that handled the negotiations kindly reminded us that such an expense might be beyond the reach of most people.
The owner of the design company's eyelids twitched wildly when he saw that there were several pieces of Phoebe zhennan wood on the materials list.
When they first received this order, the budget was over 10 million, close to 20 million. They were already very excited at that time, but now the design plan has been revised again and again.
He felt that if he continued making these changes, the revenue would probably exceed 100 million.
This isn't some skyscraper; it was just a guesthouse that cost over 100 million yuan to build. That's terrifying.
However, after Chen Yang transferred another two million to their company, the design company stopped talking. Everyone worked overtime with red eyes and gritted teeth, striving to perfect every detail. They designed many of the tables and chairs themselves and then handed them over to carpenters to make, all for the sake of a unified style.
With their experience, Ye Wu and Hong Gui smelted gold a little faster, producing a purer piece. However, Chen Yang hadn't yet taken it out, and Lu Lin had prepaid 8 million. That should be enough to support them for the time being.
Li Su'er and the other girls went to find passenger pigeons, intending to catch two more.
Although it won't be worth as much as it was the first time, there will definitely still be people willing to pay tens of millions to buy it.
Chen Yang has fewer restrictions on what he can bring out; bringing out two passenger pigeons at once shouldn't be a problem. If he can sell them for tens of millions, that would be about right.
Chen Yang didn't want to raise funds or take out loans, so it was best to build the inn directly with full payment.
Fortunately, it was Lu Lin who transferred the money to him; otherwise, a transfer of several million yuan would definitely have attracted an investigation.
The saying "money makes the world go round" often holds true.
With Chen Yang's financial support, the project progressed much faster.
The foundation for the new micro-world inn is already being laid, other materials are on their way, and all the old carpenters have been found.
Yun Shi now argues with these old folks every day because his design differs from the old mortise and tenon structure, and these old carpenters always want him to make changes.
Besides that, Yun also needs to keep an eye on the design company. He doesn't need to worry about the foundation, though, since the design company's supervisor is overseeing it.
The design firm's employees have revised the plans countless times, living and working at the company, all for this big project.
If they do this job well, their company can make at least tens of millions in profit. They'll work themselves to the bone to make it a success.
Yun's studio hired two more people, both of whom were his former seniors, the kind of people who were very capable but had nowhere to use their talents.
Chen Yang visited a design company once and almost thought he had entered a giant panda research base, as everyone was staring at him with huge dark circles under their eyes.
The exterior design and main structure are completely finalized, and the materials are all in transit. Now, all they need to do is prepare the dimensional drawings for each structure and hand them over to the carpenters.
Ancient buildings and modern buildings are very different, and some structures need to be prepared in advance.
However, Yunshi did not want to create purely ancient architecture, but rather to combine it with modern architecture. Therefore, they invited a Chinese architectural design master, a Chinese designer who is expected to compete for the next Pritzker Prize, known as the Nobel Prize of architecture, to come and see their proposal.
The master designer was also very interested in their design proposal, pointed out some immature aspects of their design, and thoroughly improved their design.
"Chen Yang, remember to leave some space for us in the interior design. We'll be giving gifts when the inn opens," Guo Zifeng said to Chen Yang.
Chen Yang said, "Don't worry, if there's not enough space, we'll just put it at the current inn. You can send whatever you want, I'll accept it all."
"Boss, what should a poor person like me do?" Xiao Qi said with a bitter face.
"You still have to send something, but you can't send things that you can buy in supermarkets or on Taobao. It doesn't matter how expensive it is," Chen Yang said with a smile.
There are very few poor people in the micro-world. Even if they are poor at the beginning, they can easily become rich after entering the micro-world.
There are a lot of big shots in the micro-world. Even if they don't help directly, just using their connections can be a huge help.
"Don't send anything too expensive, or it will make it difficult to keep my inn secure," Chen Yang said.
He was especially worried that if they gave him a gift worth hundreds of millions, he wouldn't dare to display it.
After all, there are many wealthy people in the micro-world, especially Lu Lin, a world-class tycoon. It wouldn't be surprising if she sent over a Picasso painting.
The new Microworld Inn is under stable construction, and Chen Yang is finally coming to the end of his plateau trip.
On the last day, he and the European Emperor encountered a rare spectacle.
The sun on the plateau was surrounded by a halo of light; this is a solar halo.
A solar halo is a natural phenomenon, but it is extremely rare in a big city like Hangzhou. It's quite lucky to see one on the last day before leaving the plateau.
Before leaving the plateau, Chen Yang arrived at the plateau camp to do one last thing.
He wants to completely tame the Horse King!
