Chapter 290 Spending a million to enclose 30 acres of land [Request for follow-up subscription]

A few days later, Deng Shirong returned to Nanning from Beijing.

Since he had decided to buy land and build a building in Nanning, Deng Shirong did not rush back. Instead, he planned to take a good look around Nanning at that time and buy a piece of land that was destined to be very valuable in the future.

If you want to choose such a piece of land, there is one place that you have to mention, and that is Chaoyang Square.

Although Deng Shirong is not a native of Nanning, almost everyone who has been to Nanning knows the name of Chaoyang Square.

In later generations, if you search for Chaoyang on a mobile phone map, the result you get is just a square with an area of ​​less than 1 square kilometer.

But the Chaoyang Square mentioned by the people of Nanning is the area centered on Chaoyang Road and surrounded by Minzu Avenue, Renmin Road, Zhonghua Road and Youai Road. This area is the only city center in the hearts of Nanning people.

Even though Hangyang Wanxiang and Wuxiang areas have emerged and developed rapidly in later generations, the perception that "Chaoyang is the city center" is still deeply rooted in the minds of Nanning people.

The predecessor of Chaoyang Square was a muddy pond beside Chaoyang Creek. It was filled in during the planning and construction of Chaoyang Road in the early 1960s, and trees and flowers were planted on it. It was named People's Square in 1964, renamed "July 3 Square" in 1968, and renamed "Chaoyang Square" in 1971.

In 1980, fences were added around the park and it was renamed "Chaoyang Garden", which is equivalent to a "street park" in the city center for tourists to play and rest, and admission is by ticket.

In the mid-to-late 1990s, the Nanning government decided to remove the fence of Chaoyang Garden, cancel the ticket-required admission practice, and open it to citizens and tourists. Chaoyang Garden was renamed Chaoyang Square again, and it has remained unchanged until later generations.

The Chaoyang Square in the 1980s is shown below:

Although Nanning is now the capital of Guangxi, its development speed is still extremely backward. Chaoyang Square, the city center, is not as prosperous as it is in later generations. After Deng Shirong took a walk around, he only saw a few well-known buildings such as the Nanning Hotel and the department store.

It would be an exaggeration to say that this area is deserted today, but there are indeed large areas of land left vacant.

Deng Shirong feels that he can buy now with his eyes closed, and after ten or twenty years, the land he bought will be in the city center of the city center.

Soon, Deng Shirong set his eyes on a piece of land. Based on his impression, this should be the land where the first Wanda Plaza in Nanning was located in the future.

The value of this land is unquestionable as it has caught the attention of Wanda.

When they went shopping together in the previous life, Deng Shirong heard from his third son that the land of Wanda Plaza was bought by Wanda at a high price of 4.27 million yuan per mu in 2002, setting a record for the highest unit price for the transfer of state-owned land use rights in Nanning at that time.

It is said that Wanda acquired a total of 55 acres of land and spent more than 230 million yuan.

This was only in 2002. You have to know that Nanning had just started to develop at that time. Both housing prices and land prices were still far from their peak! Therefore, as long as you take over this piece of land now, not to mention how much it helps to do business in a prosperous area, the huge profits brought by the soaring land prices alone are the money that other businessmen cannot earn after decades of hard work.

So, Deng Shirong, who had seen the opportunity, contacted the relevant departments directly to discuss the matter.

I won’t go into details about the process, let me just talk about the results.

In the end, Deng Shirong spent 1.32 million to buy 30 acres of land. The average price per square meter was about 66 yuan. This price was really worth it. You have to know that this is land, not a house. Only in this era can you encounter such a good thing. In later generations, people will not even talk to you if the price per square meter is not tens of thousands of yuan.

It is said that plans cannot keep up with changes, which is really true.

Originally, Deng Shirong just wanted to buy two or three acres of land and then build a few floors to use as the future headquarters of his supermarket chain. However, the price of the land was so tempting that he couldn't help but take a few more bites. As a result, the 1.47 million cash he had just earned was instantly reduced to only 150,000.

After he returned home and paid back the 20,000 yuan he had taken from his eldest daughter-in-law, he only had about 135,000 yuan in cash left.

This money is really not worth spending!!!

…

Sui Feng Hotel.

Seeing Deng Shirong, Xiao Dong'er rushed over with a look of surprise and called out cutely, "Grandpa!"

Deng Shirong picked her up with a smile and asked, "Xiao Dong'er, have you eaten well while grandpa was away?"

"Grandpa, I eat well and eat three bowls a day!" Xiao Dong'er looked like he was asking for praise.

"Really? Xiaodong'er is really amazing!" Deng Shirong knew that this was the way her mother and aunt coaxed her to eat. They put less food in the small bowl and waited until she finished eating before filling it up again. In her opinion, it was one bowl after she finished eating, and she had to eat three bowls for every meal!

Xiao Dong'er showed a proud expression and said, "My brother can't compare to me, he only eats one bowl."

Deng Shirong praised her several more times, which made her smile from ear to ear.

"dad!"

"dad!"

After entering the restaurant, the sons, daughters and daughters-in-law greeted Deng Shirong one after another.

A few minutes later, Deng Shirong started drinking with Zhang Guangzong again. Both of them were experienced people and they always had topics to talk about when they sat together every day.

After eating and drinking, Deng Shirong went to the passenger transport company to take a look and listened to Deng Changyu’s report on the company’s operations. He found that the company’s development was really booming. The number of passengers in the off-season did not decrease, but showed a slowly increasing trend.

According to statistics, the company's monthly income during the off-season has reached 40,000 to 50,000 yuan, which can be said to be very good.

In the afternoon, Deng Shirong said to his eldest daughter-in-law, "Sister Ping, give me your passbook and I will deposit the 20,000 yuan into it for you."

Zhang Xiuping smiled and said, "Dad, just take it yourself. This is your money."

Deng Shirong waved his hand and said, "Dad doesn't lack money. You can save the money. It will be useful when we renovate the second and third floors next year."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Xiuping did not refuse and took out the passbook and gave it to him.

When Deng Shirong went to the credit union to deposit money, he was thinking about borrowing more money from the bank. After all, starting next year, the number of businessmen will skyrocket, and banks will issue a large number of individual business loans, and credit will begin to get out of control.

After the rectification, it will be impossible to get loans as easily as it is now.

Therefore, before credit gets out of control, lend as much as you can. He is not going to pay it back anyway. Compared with the risk of lending to other people, lending to him is basically zero risk. If he lends more, the bank may suffer less losses. This is a true win-win situation.

After having this idea, Deng Shirong went to the credit union to deposit the money and then went to find Bu Wanhui.

Bu Wanhui, the former director of Shuangwang Credit Union, has been transferred to the county to work for two years and is currently the third in command of the county credit union system.

The two met and exchanged a few pleasantries. Bu Wanhui praised him sincerely, "Uncle Jiu, your business is really getting bigger and bigger now. I heard that the passenger transport company you founded made more than 400,000 yuan during the Spring Festival last year. It's really amazing!"

Deng Shirong smiled and said, "This was only possible with the support of my clansmen, and also thanks to the money you lent me, Director Bu. Otherwise, even if I took the lead in setting up this passenger transport company, I wouldn't have much of a share."

Bu Wanhui said with a smile on his face: "Uncle Jiu, I also want to thank you. Your loan has helped me. Otherwise, I would not be in my current position."

The two chatted for a while before Deng Shirong explained his intention: "Director Bu, I came to you this time because I want to borrow another sum of money. I wonder if it can still be done?"

Bu Wanhui's eyes lit up, and he quickly said, "Of course we can do it. Uncle Jiu, how much more do you want to borrow?"

In today's day and age, as long as the bank's loan officers can successfully lend money, that is their performance. As for whether the borrowers can repay the money on time, that has nothing to do with them.

Therefore, in this era, there is a phenomenon where credit officers are desperately trying to "stuff money" into people's pockets. As long as you dare to apply for a loan, the bank will approve it. It's that cool.

Of course, there is a limit on the loan amount. Those who can borrow tens or hundreds of millions are those who want to open factories or engage in large-scale planting and breeding. It is impossible for someone who is idle all day long to be loaned tens or hundreds of millions. Banks are not stupid enough to do this.

Deng Shirong is not like the people of this era who are afraid of owing money to the bank. For him, the more money the better: "Director Bu, it's up to you. Anyway, I will lend as much as I can."

Bu Wanhui was even happier when he heard this, and said, "Uncle Jiu, how about I approve another 2 million for you?"

In the eyes of the bank, big bosses like Deng Shirong are what later generations call high-quality customers. It is completely possible to lend two or three million yuan under such conditions.

Deng Shirong smiled and nodded: "No problem!"

Thus, in just a few minutes, a huge loan of 2 million was negotiated.

…

Just as Deng Shirong was waiting for the bank to approve the loan, Bobai County finally abolished the people's commune system, changing the communes into townships and towns, and the brigades into villagers' committees.

There are six towns and 14 townships in the county, namely Bobai Town, Fengshan Town, Wendi Town, Dongping Town, Shahe Town, Longtan Town, Chengxiang Township, Shuiming Township, Jiangning Township, Langping Township, Santan Township, Yashan Township, Ningtan Township, Nabu Township, Songwang Township, Yingqiao Township, Wangmao Township, Nalin Township, Dongu Township and Xintian Township.

It has jurisdiction over 269 villagers' committees (street residents' committees).

Each township and town shall establish a township party committee and township people's government respectively.

When Songshan Commune was changed into a township, it was changed to Songwang Township because it had the same name as Songshan Township in Rong County. Now Shuangwang area still belongs to Songwang Township and it was not until 1986 that it became independent.

…

As schools in various places have started to open, Xiaodong'er is about to go to kindergarten.

There are two main kindergartens in Bobai County now, one is Bobai Town Kindergarten and the other is Bobai County Commercial Kindergarten.

The predecessor of Bobai Town Kindergarten was Bobai Kindergarten, which was founded in the spring of 1936 and located in the Daxiong Hall in the county seat. At that time, there was one director, one teacher and 30 children enrolled in the kindergarten.

In 1946, it moved to the auditorium of Biaozheng Central School (south of Bobai Town Middle School).

In March 1950, the kindergarten was changed into a county kindergarten, with one director, two teachers, and one class of 29 children.

It moved to Beixin Road in 1956. It had one principal, eight teachers, and 5 classes with 174 children.

In the autumn of 1971, the county kindergarten was transferred to the management of Bobai Town and renamed Bobai Town Kindergarten. It had 4 teaching staff and 180 children in 4 classes.

In the first half of 1983, the number of teaching staff increased to 15, and the number of children enrolled in the kindergarten grew to 300 in 6 classes.

Children go to kindergarten at 7:00 am every day and go home at 4:00 pm.

Therefore, the Bobai Town Kindergarten is currently the oldest kindergarten in the county with the largest number of children enrolled.

The Bobai County Commercial Kindergarten was established in the autumn of 1981 with funds raised by various units directly under the county's commercial system. The kindergarten is located on Wenhua Road in the county seat. That year, there were 69 children in 3 classes and 9 teaching staff. It was initially a day care class, with children attending in the morning and afternoon. This year, it was changed to a full-time care class.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

After discussing it, the family finally decided to let Xiaodong go to the kindergarten in Bobai Town.

On the one hand, this kindergarten has a long history and has the largest number of children enrolled, so we should trust the public's choice.

On the other hand, this kindergarten is the closest to my residence, and it is just around the corner.

Today is Xiao Dong'er's first day in kindergarten. Deng Shirong hugged her and said, "Xiao Dong'er, you have to play well with the other kids in kindergarten. Your parents and aunt will be back to work after sending you to kindergarten. We will pick you up in the afternoon. Don't cry when you can't see your parents and aunt. It's ugly."

Xiao Dong'er said confidently: "Grandpa, I'm grown up now. I don't cry like my brother!"

Deng Shirong smiled and stretched out his pinky finger and said, "Let's make a pinky promise. Grandpa will pick you up in the afternoon. I will ask the teacher to see if you are crying."

Xiao Dong'er stretched out her finger and made a pinky promise with her grandfather. She was now in high spirits to go to kindergarten and didn't even think about what it would be like if she couldn't see her parents and aunt for a while.

Deng Shirong didn't send her off because he was afraid of seeing her crying when he left.

Seeing the grandfather and grandson finish hooking, Deng Yunzhen said, "Okay, Xiaodong'er, time is almost up, let's go!"

Xiao Dong'er immediately cheered, "Let's go to kindergarten!"

Seeing her happy look, Deng Shirong couldn't help but smile. When children first went to kindergarten, nine out of ten cried. He wondered if his Xiaodong'er would be an exception?

If a group of children are playing happily, then his little Dong'er may not cry, but when other children are crying and looking for their mothers, affected by that kind of atmosphere, few children can bear it. It is really rare for them not to cry.

Soon, Zhang Xiuping and others came back.

Deng Shirong immediately asked, "Did Xiaodong cry when you left?"

Zhang Xiuping smiled and said, "She looked like she wanted to cry, but she held it back. Compared to other children who have just entered the kindergarten, she is already good."

Deng Yunzhen said with some distress: "We just left for a while. If she can't find us for a while, she will probably cry. She is still too young. She is not even three years old. In our village, many children used to go to preschool at the age of seven or eight, or even eight or nine."

Deng Shirong said: "She only cried for a few days at the beginning, but she would stop crying once she got used to it. Nowadays, education starts from kindergarten. There is no such condition in the countryside. If she goes to school a few years earlier, she can naturally lay a solid foundation early. That is why city dwellers are often better at studying than country dwellers, because of the different educational resources.

When the country kids are playing in the mud, the city kids are already in kindergarten. How can you compare them?"

Deng Yuntai said: "I think that educational resources are important, but whether one can succeed ultimately depends on talent and hard work. Yunheng is the most obvious example."

Deng Shirong nodded and said, "We are only responsible for providing a better platform for Xiao Dong'er, so that she will be no worse off than the people in the city at the beginning. As for whether she can be admitted to a good university in the end, it depends on whether she has the talent for studying and whether she works hard enough."

Zhang Xiuping smiled and said, "She's just in kindergarten now, it's still a long way to go to college."

After chatting for a while about Xiao Dong'er going to kindergarten, Deng Shirong said, "National Day is coming soon. I heard that this year's National Day military parade is quite grand, and Yunheng is fortunate to be able to participate in it. I will go buy a color TV and put it in the hotel so that you can watch this year's National Day military parade."

Zhang Xiuping said, "Dad, it's a waste to buy a color TV and put it in the hotel. You should take it back home!"

Deng Shirong smiled and said, "I will also buy one from my hometown and bring it back. I will put one in the restaurant so that you can watch TV when you are free to kill time. I can also show it to the diners."

Deng Yunzhen said, "Dad, I heard that this color TV costs thousands even if there are TV tickets. We already have a black and white TV in our hometown. If you buy two color TVs now, won't that mean we have one extra TV?"

Deng Shirong said: "I plan to keep the black and white TV in my hometown. I will take it out and watch it in 20 or 30 years. It will be something worth recalling."

Deng Yuntai smiled and said, "Just buy it. With our hotel's current income, we can buy a color TV in a week."

Deng Yunzhen and Zhang Xiuping thought about it and felt that it made sense. With more and more wealthy people in the county, the restaurant business was also getting better and better. On average, the monthly profit had exceeded 4,000 yuan. A week's profit was enough to buy a color TV. It was no joke.

As for TV tickets, it is not difficult to get one with the network of relationships their family has established.

…

The next day.

A 14-inch Mudan brand color TV was placed on the wall to the left of the entrance of Suifeng Hotel. People could see the TV while sitting at the cashier counter. People could also see the TV clearly from the small table where Zhang Guangzong often sat.

This color TV and black and white TV look completely different.

As soon as this color TV was bought, it received rave reviews from many diners. They ate and drank while watching TV, which was a rare enjoyment.

…

Public Security Bureau family building.

During dinner, Mrs. Zhu asked, "Xiao Jie, how was your conversation with Sister Zhen?"

Zhu Junjie swallowed the food in his mouth and replied, "It's good."

Old Mrs. Zhu said, "Xiao Jie, you two have been dating for quite some time since you met each other. Shouldn't you consider becoming the gatekeeper?"

Zhu Junjie thought for a moment and said, "Then I'll ask her later to see if she agrees. If she doesn't agree, we'll talk about it later. If she agrees, then we'll set a date and you can go back to your hometown to get ready."

Mrs. Zhu nodded and said, "Well, then you can ask later. If you don't solve this matter soon, I will always be worried about it."

Old Man Zhu continued, "Their family should have agreed to the marriage. Didn't Zhenmei's father say before that the marriage might be postponed for a year or two, but the marriage can be scheduled in advance? Although there are cases where the woman will regret it after the marriage, there are not many examples of regret, so it is still worth believing."

Zhu Junjie hummed and said, “Okay, I’ll ask her later and see what she says.”

Old Mrs. Zhu said with some anxiety: "It's a good thing to guard the house, but our hometown only has a few dilapidated mud brick houses. Sister Zhen is the daughter of the big boss of Suifeng Hotel. If she sees the situation of our family, will she..."

Allen Chu interrupted directly: “Mom, don’t worry about this, Azhen won’t care about this.”

Old Man Zhu said, "You are worrying for nothing. Xiaojie will live in the county in the future. He will only go back to his hometown during the New Year holidays. People there won't care about this."

Zhu Junjie added: "At worst, after I get married to Ah Zhen, I can just tear down those dilapidated mud brick houses in my hometown and rebuild them."

Old Mrs. Zhu nodded and said, "We should rebuild the house. After all, our hometown is our root. Xiaojie, you are now the deputy director of the Public Security Bureau. If you return to your hometown, you will be a well-known person. If you continue to live in those shabby mud brick houses, it is indeed a bit inappropriate."

Zhu Junjie said: "The money I have now is enough to build a new house, but it will definitely cost a lot to marry a wife. It is better to save the money first, so as not to spend all the money and not be able to afford the wife's status when the time comes, which would be embarrassing."

Old Mrs. Zhu said, "That's true. We can build a new house in our hometown after you get married!"

Old Man Zhu said, "Let's think about looking after the house first. If Zhenmei agrees to look after the house, then we have to prepare well. It doesn't matter if the house is a little bit bad, but we have to make good preparations for the food and the occasion."

Old Mrs. Zhu said, "We'll kill a big fat pig and invite all the relatives and friends at home..."

Hearing his parents start discussing the details of the door-to-door ceremony, Zhu Junjie felt a lot of pressure. Although he could feel that Deng Yunzhen had a good impression of him after spending some time together, he knew clearly what the door-to-door ceremony meant. Basically, as long as this process was followed, the two would be in a quasi-husband-and-wife relationship.

Therefore, whether she would agree to come to watch the house was still unknown! However, even if Deng Yunzhen did not agree to come to watch the house in the near future, at most she would just postpone the date of the visit, and she would definitely not reject it outright. Director Zhu still had this confidence.

If the other party is willing to look after the house in the near future, then the relationship between the two is officially established.

Thinking of this, Zhu Junjie quickened his eating speed. After finishing his meal, he went to ask the other party to see what the result was.
