Chapter 928: The Turning Point in Zhoushui Village's History
"Is that true?"
After hearing what his son said, Zhou Youliang asked in confusion.
As a middle-aged man who is very popular in the village, Zhou Youliang believes that he knows more about the village than his son.
However, when he thought that the village chief Zhou Xiaoke was his son's elementary school classmate, he was not so surprised.
"Son, tell us in detail."
"Um"
Seeing that his parents were quite interested, Zhou Anan began to explain to them in detail the "first phase plan" of Village Chief Zhou.
"In other words, the sooner we buy shares, the better the returns will be."
Finally, Zhou Anan concluded with an extremely affirmative tone.
He is still very confident in his "Five-Year Development Plan for Zhoushui Village".
You know, many years later, if any village builds an Internet celebrity facility, it can attract half of the citizens of Lizhou to join in the fun.
What's more, their Zhoushui Village also has the advantage of Yili National Highway.
When the national highway from Lizhou to Yiwu near the village is opened, the journey between the two places will be shortened to less than half an hour. The huge consumer group in Yiwu, a big city, will definitely be an inexhaustible treasure.
"I think it's great too, son, how much do you want to invest?"
After listening to his story, Wang Jingyu also felt that this cooperative had a bright future.
In particular, the village chief Zhou Xiaoke is a celebrity in the village and also his son's elementary school classmate. No matter how much loss he suffers, he will never cheat their family.
"I want to invest 500,000 yuan."
"There are too many. We don't know whether these projects can make money, so it's better to be safe."
When Zhou You heard his son casually want to invest 500,000 yuan, his conscience trembled and he subconsciously opened his mouth to refute.
Although my son has earned over 2 million yuan in the past two or three years, this money did not come out of thin air. How could he invest 500,000 yuan just because Zhou Xiaoke said so casually?
If you lose money, it will be a big loss.
With 500,000 yuan, you can buy two or three houses in the city.
No, the price of houses in the city has increased a lot now, but you can still buy a house of over 100 square meters with 500,000 yuan.
"500,000 is a bit too much. How about this, son? You invest 300,000, and your dad and I invest 200,000."
Pulling her husband's hand implicitly, Wang Jingyu proposed a more suitable plan.
Since their son is so brave, the couple can’t be any worse.
They let their son invest 300,000 yuan and the couple invested 200,000 yuan, so in the end, their family still invested 500,000 yuan.
If she loses, so does she. At most, her online store will just lose one month’s profit.
“.”
Zhou Youliang opened his mouth, but after receiving a signal from his wife, he finally said nothing and agreed to this plan.
For some reason, he felt that his say as the head of the family was somewhat weak.
After all, he still made the least money.
"good."
Instead of praising her mother's courage in front of her father, Zhou Anan agreed to her mother's plan in a very low-key manner.
That night, Zhou Youliang, whose quarry contract was about to expire, couldn't fall asleep for a long time.
Although he now helps his wife with shipping, delivery and factory management, it is ultimately his wife who has built the factory on her own. Even his son, who is currently in college, earns hundreds of thousands of dollars a year.
How could he, a grown man and the pillar of his family, not have his own main business?
"What's wrong?"
Feeling her husband tossing and turning beside her, Wang Jingyu, who was woken up, asked in a low voice.
"Do you think the friend who opened the shipping station that Xinqi mentioned and asked us to invest in it is reliable? Should I go and take a look?"
When Zhou Youliang heard his wife ask, he also expressed his thoughts.
In fact, he was still a little worried about the consignment station.
Although Xinqi is his childhood friend and an important partner in the quarry for many years, there is no guarantee that the other party will be cheated by his friends.
The annual income of a shipping station is four or five hundred thousand, and the estimated value is 2 million. They are allowed to join the partnership, and each of them will pay 200,000 for a 10% stake, and the more they pay, the more shares they will get.
Under these conditions, the investment can be recovered in four years, and the rest is all pure profit.
Even with the factor of Xinqi's good friend, it still felt like pie in the sky, making the usually steady Zhou Youliang feel uneasy.
"If you want to go and take a look, go ahead. If you think it's unreliable, then just don't invest."
Wang Jingyu was quite happy about the investment of more than 200,000 yuan, as she had heard her husband mention it more than three times.
Investing in an industry like a shipping station is a sure thing, and as an old online shop owner, she knows this very well.
What's more, she also knew her husband's heart knot, knew that he was a person who could not sit still, and knew that he would feel uncomfortable without a business of his own.
Give your husband something to do so he doesn't have any wild thoughts.
"Um."
After getting repeated affirmation from his wife, Zhou Youliang made up his mind and decided to go to the other party's consignment station with Xinqi for an on-site inspection in two days.
He hadn't made up his mind before and was too embarrassed to go and take a look. But this time, he wanted to get a comprehensive understanding of the situation at the consignment station, and find out everything from the front and back before deciding whether to invest or not.
As for why they had to wait two days, from what my son had said before, tomorrow was the day Zhou Xiaoke would convene a village collective meeting, and their family was a major investor who was going to invest 500,000 yuan, so how could they be absent?
His son said he would not show up and had to rush back to Lucheng to take charge of the training department. His wife never got involved in village affairs, so naturally he, the head of the family, would be the one to buy shares.
Thinking about the surprised looks of the other villagers, Zhou Youliang fell asleep happily.
"Hey, hey, hey, villagers, please pay attention, villagers, please pay attention"
Early on Saturday morning, the familiar voice of the village chief rang out from the loudspeakers in the four corners of Zhoushui Village.
Although they didn't know what the matter was, everyone put down their work and headed for the village's Damingtang (flat playground) after hearing Village Chief Zhou speak so urgently.
At this time, a red stage had been set up in the originally empty Daming Hall, with two tables placed on it, which aroused the curiosity of the villagers who arrived.
Some people thought that the village was going to hold an event or a play, so they brought stools from home and sat in front of the stage.
No matter what play it is, there's no harm in sitting in the front.
Fifteen minutes after the third broadcast, Zhou Xiaoke and the old branch secretary sat on the stage together.
Looking at the densely packed villagers standing below the stage, Zhou Xiaoke, knowing that today was a turning point in the history of Zhoushui Village, felt a surge of pride in his heart and said to the microphone: "Hello, everyone!"
The Daming Hall, which was originally filled with discussion and noise, quickly quieted down after Village Chief Zhou started to speak.
Ten minutes later, a loud bang suddenly came from the originally quiet Daming Hall, and everyone was extremely shocked by this sudden "cooperative reform".
And with that 3 million initial investment, who knows if it can make money?
B&B? What the hell is that? I've never heard of it.
Building new houses for free and giving annual dividends to the original residents living around the old ancestral hall, is there such a good thing?
Rafting? What is that? Can you make money?
If you invest 3 million in this project that has no basis at all, can you make the money back?
Who would be stupid enough to follow suit and invest? Money doesn’t come from the wind.
"Be quiet. What are you making noise about? Listen to what the village chief has to say."
After the villagers had discussed for more than ten minutes, the old party secretary sitting on the stage shouted, making the whole audience quiet down again, but there were still some whispers below.
"Well, I'll take the lead. If the village collective agrees, I will personally subscribe for 500,000 shares. I know you can't make a decision right away, so you can go back and think about it for a day. We will accept subscriptions here at the same time tomorrow."
Seeing that everyone had almost finished discussing the matter, Zhou Xiaoke stated his investment amount according to the previous plan and gave all the villagers a day to consider it.
The number of 500,000 was suggested by Zhou Anan.
As the village chief and the richest man in the village, Zhou Xiaoke should not invest too much, especially after the cooperative makes money, as too much dividend will easily lead to criticism.
Of course, if there is a subsequent investment of tens of millions, it would be no problem for him to add a million or so.
"500,000, so much. It seems that Xiaoke is very optimistic about this project."
"Ah, do you want to invest some?"
"The village chief has voted, it looks like there will really be big moves."
"With Zhou Xiaoke's money-making brain, it will definitely be a good idea to follow him and invest."
"Who among you wants to vote?"
The discussion started again, but this time the noise was broken by a voice, and it became extremely quiet.
"Our family also subscribed for 500,000 shares."
