Chapter 294: Children's career planning, expensive motorcycles
Morning.
Baoshan Village.
Deng Shilan, with a smile on her face, was slaughtering chickens and ducks at home with her little daughter Bu Xiaofang, and cooking for relatives, friends and villagers who came to help them cut sugarcane.
Deng Shilan had planted sugarcane a long time ago. Not only her, but almost every household in the village had planted it, but the amount was not large. It was mainly used to make brown sugar blocks, which could be used to make sweet rice dumplings during the Chinese New Year.
Now, after listening to his younger brother's advice, he directly contracted more than 600 acres of land to grow sugarcane. Such large-scale planting is completely different from planting only a few acres of land. Ever since planting these 600 acres of sugarcane, Deng Shilan has been worried.
One is that they are worried that the sugarcane will not grow well. After all, it is a new variety they introduced, and it is unknown whether it will grow well.
The second is the fear that sugarcane will be infested with pests and diseases. The pests of sugarcane include aphids, sugarcane borers, sugarcane turtles, sugarcane locusts, flat planthoppers, mealybugs, stink bugs, thrips, etc.; the diseases include sheath blight, sooty mold, red rot, bromeliad disease, etc., which can easily get infected if you are not careful.
Fortunately, under the careful care of their family, the sugarcane grew very well, definitely reaching the standard of 3 tons per mu, and was not infected with any insect diseases.
Now that the harvest season has finally arrived, Deng Shilan is naturally very happy.
Their family had already calculated that the purchase price of sugarcane from the Bobai Sugar Factory was 3.5 cents per catty, and if their sugarcane was calculated at 3 tons per acre, then their 600 acres of land could produce at least 1,800 tons of sugarcane, and the total income would be as high as 126,000 yuan.
After deducting the planting cost of more than 20,000 yuan and the shipping and labor costs of more than 10,000 yuan, the profit is about 90,000 yuan.
Moreover, the freight fee goes into the pocket of his second son, so it is a good thing.
This time, their family really made a lot of money.
Now Deng Shilan has only one word to describe his younger brother - admiration!
…
When the third sister's family started cutting sugarcane, the 2 million loan that Deng Shirong applied for also arrived.
As soon as the money arrived, Deng Shirong began to think about developing the land in Nanning.
30 acres of land is nearly 20,000 square meters, so it is impossible to use all of it to build a building. His goal is to build a building with an area of about 3,000 square meters, and use the rest of the area to make a square, and then set aside an area to park bicycles and the increasing number of motorcycles.
As for sedans, there was no need to consider them in the 1980s and 1990s because there were too few of them!
However, even if he only wanted to build a building with an area of about 3,000 square meters, the mere 2 million yuan in his hand would be a bit stretched. After all, if he wanted to build a building here, he certainly couldn't just build three floors like he did in Bobai County.
First of all, chain supermarkets must occupy one floor, this goes without saying.
Then, the hot pot restaurant will also occupy a floor, which is reserved by Deng Shirong for his youngest daughter. After all, his youngest daughter is eighteen years old this year. With her grades, going to high school is already the limit, and it is basically impossible for her to go further.
So, when she graduated from high school, her career had to be arranged for her.
There are thousands of delicious foods in our country, but no matter which one it is, it is difficult to gain unanimous love from people all over the country. Hot pot is the only exception. This thing is really loved by people all over the country. If you open a hot pot restaurant here, as long as it is managed properly, you will definitely make a lot of money.
If the younger daughter has that ability, she can develop it into a hotpot restaurant chain.
Next, home appliances will also occupy one floor, which is reserved for the fourth son, Deng Yunhua. He is also a poor student. High school is basically the end of his academic career. When he graduates from high school in 1988, televisions, refrigerators, washing machines and other home appliances will basically no longer require tickets, and sales will enter a stage of explosive growth.
If we open a large-scale home appliance sales store here, the business will definitely be good.
Finally, the Internet cafe must occupy the first floor, which is reserved for the youngest son Deng Yunheng.
Deng Yunheng's academic performance is pretty good now. As long as he can keep it up, he should have a chance to go to university. He is now in the first grade of junior high school and there are still ten years before he graduates from university. By the time he graduates from university, he will be at the stage of starting his career in Internet cafes.
Anyone who has experienced the Internet cafe era knows how profitable Internet cafes are. It is definitely not an exaggeration to say that they make a fortune every day.
When computers became popular in his previous life, Deng Shirong was already an old man in his sixties. He had never been to an Internet cafe to surf the Internet, but he had been reading online novels for more than ten years. Many of the protagonists of those urban rebirth novels chose Internet cafes as their first choice to start a business.
Therefore, his understanding of Internet cafes is no worse than anyone else, and no one in this world can compare to him.
Therefore, with his guidance, the younger son will definitely be able to make a lot of money running an Internet cafe.
As for his second and third sons, Deng Shirong did not reserve any for them.
Needless to say, the third son, Deng Yunsong, had no background in his previous life, but he was able to become a director-level official as a mere junior college graduate, and enjoy the treatment of a full director when he retired. Needless to say, he is politically wise. The conditions in this life are much better than in his previous life, so he will definitely continue to go into politics.
The second son, Deng Yunheng, has not yet decided, but even if he chooses to go into business in the end, it will not be a small business like this, but a business with a higher ceiling, such as the Internet industry.
I’ll talk to my second son about the details after he comes back for the New Year.
By this calculation, the supermarket, hot pot restaurant, home appliances, and Internet cafe occupy four floors. Deng Shirong plans to convert another floor into a residence. It would be great to have a 3,000-square-meter mansion in the most prosperous area of Nanning.
This was the initial plan for the building, but during its construction, Deng Shirong planned to improve the foundation so that if there was a need for future development, he could add a few more floors, which would make it perfect.
If you want to build something like this, 2 million is definitely not enough.
Fortunately, the money does not have to be paid in full immediately. It takes a long time from the design to the construction to the completion and acceptance of a building. With his current rate of making money, he can definitely pay the project fee according to the progress of the project.
Since there was nothing else to do now, Deng Shirong simply took a bus to Nanning and asked the experts from the Provincial Architectural Design Institute to handle the matter.
…
Bobai Town.
Chengdong Village.
In a certain Qin family, three brothers were drinking and chatting.
"Brother, brother, after we sell all the pigs next month, I won't raise pigs anymore!" The speaker was Qin Bao, the third son of the Qin family.
The three brothers of the Qin family were named after gold ingots. The eldest, Qin Jin, is 32 years old this year; the second, Qin Yuan, is 30 years old; and the third, Qin Bao, is 28 years old.
Qin Yuan took a sip of wine and asked, "Old Third, isn't raising pigs very profitable? Why don't you raise them anymore?"
Qin Bao said, "Raising pigs is hard work, and the main thing is that the risks are relatively high. Didn't the pigs in Yashan get sick last month? I heard that dozens of pigs died. It can be said that the loss is heavy. Just because we haven't encountered such a thing now doesn't mean we won't encounter it in the future. Anyway, I don't feel at ease at all."
Qin Jin nodded and said, "It's bad luck to raise pigs when there's a plague, but raising pigs does make money. What are you going to do if you don't raise pigs, Third Brother?"
Qin Bao said confidently: "Brother, Brother, I have a way to make more money, do you want to work with me?"
Qin Jin and Qin Yuan looked at each other.
Qin Jin asked, "Third brother, do you have any better way to make money? Tell us so we can discuss it together."
Qin Bao didn't keep the secret and said directly: "I plan to do passenger transport."
Qin Jin was surprised and asked, "Passenger transport?"
Qin Bao nodded and said, "Yes, we are engaged in passenger transport. You should all know about the opening ceremony held by Tenglong Passenger Transport Company at the station last year, right?"
Qin Yuan reached out and grabbed a peanut and threw it into his mouth. While chewing, he said, "At that time, there were ten more buses going to Guangdong. Who doesn't know this?"
Qin Bao said: "I have carefully observed that during the Spring Festival last year, the ten buses of Tenglong Passenger Transport Company were full of passengers every day returning from Guangdong before the New Year, and every day heading to Guangdong after the New Year. I wonder how much money this Tenglong Passenger Transport Company made during the Spring Festival!
There are still two and a half months before the Spring Festival travel rush begins. I plan to get a bus to run to Guangdong before the Spring Festival travel rush arrives. With the number of passengers returning from Guangdong, I will definitely make a lot of money."
Qin Jin thought for a moment and said, "Third brother, your idea is good, but have you ever considered that it is normal for the bus to be full when there is only one car running, but if you add another car, I can't guarantee that it can still be full.
Moreover, Tenglong Bus Company is doing well. Your sudden joining in is equivalent to stealing customers. It may not have much impact during the Spring Festival travel rush, but once the Spring Festival travel rush is over and there are fewer passengers, conflicts will arise sooner or later."
Qin Bao took a sip of wine and said nonchalantly, "Brother, this route is not theirs. If they can run, why can't I? There are conflicts, there are conflicts. Are they allowed to make money but I am not allowed to? There is no such logic in the world."
Qin Yuan interrupted, "If I can make money, I'm not afraid of conflicts, but I'm afraid of not making money."
Qin Bao said, "Brother, I had this idea last year, so I have been observing those ten Guangdong buses for a long time. I can tell you for sure that passenger transport is 100% profitable, especially Guangzhou buses, which carry the most passengers."
Qin Jin asked, "Third brother, do you know how much this bus costs?"
Qin Bao said: "I have already inquired clearly, it costs more than 100,000 yuan per car."
Although he was mentally prepared, Qin Jin still took a breath of cold air when he heard this number. He said solemnly, "Third brother, this hundreds of thousands is not a small amount. Even if the three of us work together, each of us will have to pay tens of thousands.
With so much money invested, when can we earn it back? "
Qin Bao said: "Don't worry, big brother. I have calculated carefully. If everything goes well, we can recover the cost in just two or three years!"
Qin Jin put down his chopsticks and said, "But what if it doesn't go well?"
Qin Bao smiled and said, "Brother, how can there be no risk in doing business? Compared to raising pigs, I think the risk of running passenger transport is much smaller."
Qin Yuan nodded and said, "Old Third is right. There are risks in doing business. Since Tenglong Passenger Transport Company can make money, it proves that this road is feasible. I think this passenger transport can be done."
Qin Jin hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, let's do it together."
Qin Bao picked up the wine and clinked glasses with his two brothers, and said happily: "Don't worry, big brother and second brother, I have already planned it. I will make a lot of money during the Spring Festival travel rush. When there are not many passengers after the Spring Festival travel rush, I will find a way to snatch all the passengers of Tenglong Passenger Transport Company. Then, who will be afraid of not making money?"
As he spoke, a fierce light flashed in Qin Bao's eyes.
They are brothers who grew up together. As soon as Qin Jin and Qin Yuan heard the tone of the third brother's voice, they knew what he wanted to do.
However, they are not easy to deal with. They are the kind of people who are more arrogant and unreasonable in the village. It is normal for them to use some shameful means to make money.
So, the three brothers decided on this matter while drinking.
…
This is not an isolated case.
In a Huang family in Chengxi Village, two people were discussing the same thing while drinking.
"Uncle Qi, I invited you to come over for a drink today because I want to do business with you."
The person who was speaking was Huang Qiang, the owner of the house. The uncle he was referring to was a wealthy and influential man in the village named Huang Qi.
Huang Qi was a little surprised when he heard this: "Aqiang, you want to do business with me?"
Huang Qiang nodded and said, "Uncle Qi, I have a business that will definitely make money, but unfortunately I don't have enough capital, so I thought of looking for you to partner with me."
Huang Qi did not comment and asked, "What business are you talking about?"
Huang Qiang said: "To do passenger transport."
Huang Qi was surprised and asked, "Passenger transport?"
Huang Qiang smiled and said, "Uncle Qi, you should know that my brother-in-law works at the station. I learned from him that passenger transport is really profitable now. Do you remember the opening ceremony of the station with ten Guangdong buses last year?"
Huang Qi nodded and said, "Of course I remember this. It caused quite a stir at the time."
Huang Qiang said with emotion: "According to my brother-in-law, these ten Guangdong vehicles made at least hundreds of thousands of yuan during last year's Spring Festival travel rush."
Huang Qi was shocked when he heard this: "Is this true? He made hundreds of thousands of dollars during the Spring Festival travel rush?"
Huang Qiang raised his glass and clinked it with his uncle's. He said confidently, "This is what my brother-in-law told me personally. It is absolutely true."
Huang Qiang's brother-in-law is a staff member at the station. His words are very credible. At this moment, Huang Qi was really tempted. He could make hundreds of thousands of yuan in the Spring Festival travel season. On average, he could make tens of thousands of yuan in profit per car. This business was really worth it! Huang Qiang saw that his uncle was tempted, so he added fuel to the fire and said, "My brother-in-law said that the number of passengers this year has increased by at least half compared to last year, especially the number of people going to Guangdong is increasing. If we get a car to run to Guangdong, we will definitely make money."
Huang Qi asked a key question: "Aqiang, how much money do you need to invest in a bus?"
Huang Qiang replied: "If the two of us form a partnership, each of us only needs to invest 80,000 or 90,000 yuan."
Huang Qi pondered and said, "Eighty or ninety thousand, this is not a small amount!"
Huang Qiang said: "It is indeed not a small amount, but the more you invest, the more you earn. You can earn tens of thousands during the Spring Festival travel season. Adding the usual income, I estimate that I can get my investment back in about two years. Then this car will continue to make money for us."
Huang Qi was completely moved and said, "Aqiang, tell me your plan in detail. If you buy the car, which route do you plan to run?"
"Okay, Uncle Qi, this is my plan..."
Next, Huang Qiang laid out his plan in detail, and Huang Qi nodded repeatedly.
After a drink, the two men reached a cooperation agreement and planned to get the bus started before the Spring Festival travel rush.
It has to be said that there is never a shortage of smart people in this world. No matter what industry you make money in, unless you have very high technical barriers, there will definitely be no shortage of followers.
Tenglong Passenger Transport Company naturally had no idea that someone was eyeing it covetously. At this time, the loan the company applied for had been approved, 15 buses had been booked in advance, and even experienced drivers were being recruited, so it could be put into the passenger transport market at any time.
If the Qin brothers, Huang Qiang, Huang Qi and others knew this news, I wonder if they would still have the courage to enter the passenger transport market to compete with Tenglong Passenger Transport Company?
…
Sui Feng Hotel.
Deng Yuntai accompanied Zhang Guangzong to drink and chat.
As they chatted, they came to talk about Zhang Guangzong's joining the Tongxin Society.
Deng Yuntai asked curiously, "Grandpa Zhang, the party generally has party rules. Did the Tongxin Club you joined have any rules?"
Zhang Guangzong took a sip of wine and said with a smile: "Of course, we have a covenant and an oath in the Tongxin Association."
Deng Yuntai drank a sip of wine with him and asked, "What kind of covenant and oath is it, Grandpa Zhang, do you still remember it?"
Zhang Guangzong's eyes flashed with memories, and he sighed, "This convention and oath have long been engraved in my mind. I will never forget them in this lifetime."
Deng Yuntai asked with interest: "Grandpa Zhang, I am very interested in this. Can you tell me about this convention and oath?"
Zhang Guangzong picked up a peanut and threw it into his mouth, chewing it while saying, "There are 12 articles in our Tongxin Society's convention. This is a long story. If you want to hear it, I will tell you the oath of our Tongxin Society!"
Deng Yuntai immediately pretended to listen attentively.
Zhang Guangzong recited the Tongxin Society's oath solemnly: "In order to overthrow Chiang..., establish a new China, and liberate the poor, we sincerely join the Tongxin Society, accept... leadership, obey orders, abide by discipline, implement resolutions, and work actively. If anyone betrays us midway and endangers... our cause, we will be punished by heaven and earth, and the gods and people will bear witness to this. I solemnly swear."
After hearing this, Deng Yuntai couldn't help but say, "Grandpa Zhang, given your position in the Tongxin Society at the time, if you had joined the party, you would probably have been a leader in the county, right?"
Zhang Guangzong smiled and said, "That's all in the past."
…
Nanning.
Deng Shirong rode his newly bought Jialing 70 and moved freely around Chaoyang Square. It felt so good, much better than riding a bicycle.
The Jialing 70 is a new model that just came out this year, as shown in the picture below: This car is a product jointly produced by Jialing Company and Honda Company. The whole vehicle is imported and assembled domestically. The quality is indeed top-notch, but the price is also very attractive, as high as more than 7,000 per vehicle, which is really a sky-high price in that era. In later generations, buying a Mercedes-Benz or BMW is not as expensive as this motorcycle.
Buying a motorcycle like this is equivalent to Deng Shirong spending all the annual income of the tile factory.
Originally, he planned to buy two, keep one at home and put the other in the system space for emergency use, but the price was indeed a bit expensive, so Deng Shirong temporarily changed his plan and only bought one.
At this time, Deng Shirong had been in Nanning for several days and had communicated with experts from the Provincial Architectural Design Institute. If the building was designed and built according to his requirements, the cost of the building (including the square) would be as high as 3.68 million, excluding interior decoration.
The price was indeed expensive, but Deng Shirong signed the contract with the Provincial Architectural Design Institute without any hesitation.
The construction of this building will begin in the early spring of next year.
After driving a motorcycle around Chaoyang Square, Deng Shirong found a Laoyou noodle stall and had a delicious bowl of Laoyou noodle.
After eating the noodles, I found a secluded place to put the motorcycle into the system space, and then went to the bus station to take a bus back to Bobai.
