Chapter 542 Can I invest?
Jiang Jiaxin recommended several pieces of land and took Zhou Rong to inspect them one by one to analyze the advantages and disadvantages of each piece of land.
Zhou Rong looked around and decided on 50 acres of land at the foot of a mountain. There was a primary school, a village, and a river nearby. However, because the government road had not been built here, the land was overgrown with weeds and foreign investors were not interested.
Zhou Rong also asked for 500 acres of land in the suburbs, planning to build a large industrial park for sale.
Jiang Jiaxin asked Zhou Rong whether he should build the roads and solve the water and electricity problems himself or ask the government for help.
Zhou Rong: "I looked around and saw that there were construction projects everywhere in the city. The people from the water company and the power company must be very busy.
I don't have any acquaintances in there, and if I go to them alone, it will take a few years before anything is done. I'd like to ask the government to help me solve this problem, and we can pay for it."
Jiang Jiaxin: "Okay, the land at the foot of the mountain, a foreign businessman came to inquire about the price before, and our offer was 3000 yuan per acre. I will go to the leader to apply for a preferential price for my aunt.
For the land in the suburbs, I will also try my best to get the lowest price for my aunt. "
Zhou Rong: "Thank you."
After Jiang Jiaxin's efforts, the price of the 50 acres of land at the foot of the mountain was 1500 yuan per acre, and the price of the 500 acres of land in the suburbs was 300 yuan per acre.
If the government is responsible for solving all water and electricity problems, Zhou Rong will need to pay an additional 20 yuan for pipeline laying costs.
Zhou Rong said it was no problem, saying that her investor was on a business trip and would not be back for half a month. She would first pay a deposit of 1 yuan, and then pay the balance and sign a formal contract after the investor returned.
The government agreed.
Zhou Rong signed a letter of intent for cooperation with the government and paid a deposit. Then he went to Hong Kong to find Xu Hanhua and said he wanted to withdraw the 6 yuan in his and Xu Man's names.
If he suddenly had a large sum of money, people would question its source. Zhou Rong didn't want to be investigated, so he decided to ask Xu Hanhua to "cover up"...
After Xu Hanhua instructed the finance department to prepare cash, he curiously asked Zhou Rong what he needed so much money for.
Zhou Rong said bluntly: "I plan to build a community and an industrial park in Pengcheng. The land has been acquired and I need to pay the land purchase fee as soon as possible."
Xu Hanhua: "Aunt Rong, can you please tell me where your land is, how much it costs, and what your future plans are?
Zhou Rong truthfully told her about the land she bought, its location, surrounding environment, and the price.
"Pengcheng has many mountains and rivers, which complement each other and form what everyone calls the 'dragon vein'. The land I chose is at the foot of a mountain, with its back against the mountain and across the sea from the Xiangjiang River. In Feng Shui, it is surrounded by mountains and water, gathering energy and qi, and is a blessed land.
People who live here will surely accumulate wealth and have smooth sailing; the area where the industrial park is built also has mountains and water, so as long as we promote it more, we will have no trouble selling it.”
Xu Hanhua stayed in Hong Kong for a while and found that the people here were very "superstitious". They paid special attention to feng shui when buying land and property. Because he did not understand these things, he suffered some losses. Some wealthy people felt that he was not "one of them" and were unwilling to cooperate with him.
After listening to what Zhou Rong said, Xu Hanhua had a hunch that as long as Zhou Rong’s residential community and industrial park were sold, they would be sold out.
Xu Hanhua discussed, "Aunt Rong, can I invest?"
Zhou Rong: "How much do you plan to invest?"
Xu Hanhua: "I can take care of any shortfalls in funding for Aunt Rong. You can decide on the shares."
Zhou Rong: "When I came to Pengcheng, I borrowed some money from a friend, and with the 12 yuan from you, it was enough to buy the land.
After getting the land purchase contract, I can apply for a bank loan. When the house starts construction, I will learn to sell pre-sale houses like in Hong Kong. The same is true for industrial parks.
As long as my publicity is in place, selling it won’t be a problem whether it’s a residential or factory building.
In theory, I can get the project done without your investment, but I am old and have limited energy. I also need to go back to Jiangcheng to see my grandson from time to time. As for the project in Pengcheng, I need a reliable person to help me keep an eye on it.
We are relatives. I trust your character and ability, and I am willing to cooperate with you.
I am a retired cadre, so it is not convenient for me to come forward for some matters. You can register a real estate company, and you will be the legal person, accounting for 45% of the company's income. You can pay the registered capital first, and I will pay you back after the project is profitable. "
Xu Hanhua: "No need for 45%, 20% is enough for me. It takes too long to register a new company in China, especially for real estate. A lot of qualifications need to be reviewed, and it takes three to five months to get a license.
I registered a real estate company in Pengcheng a few years ago. It has gone through many twists and turns and has no actual revenue so far. If Aunt Rong is willing, I will use this company to change the equity, which can save a lot of time. "
Xu Hanhua believed that Zhou Rong was able to acquire the land so quickly and at a low price because of her connections.
He also bought 50 acres of land in Pengcheng two years ago, intending to build a residential community and sell it like others. However, he had money but no connections. After getting the land, he couldn't even solve the basic problems of water, electricity, construction and raw materials.
Pengcheng's water, electricity and construction are handled by special companies and engineering corps. Foreign companies and individuals can only do small orders and cannot undertake large projects such as residential communities.
Raw materials such as cement, sand, gravel, bricks, etc. require approval before they can be purchased.
These companies are all state-owned units with low efficiency. It takes normal approval and three years before it can be his turn to build a site, unless he is willing to spend a lot of money to "jump the queue."
But the price for queue-jumping in those units is often over a million. If you encounter problems in the middle, the price will be increased. It seems that they want to rip off as many people as possible.
He didn't want to be a sucker, so the land he bought remains vacant to this day. Because it is located in the city center and "damages the cityscape," the government has contacted him many times, saying that if he doesn't develop the land, they will have to sell it.
If he could cooperate with Zhou Rong and have his connections, his land could be developed immediately, and other projects in Pengcheng would be much smoother. Besides, the Xu family owed Zhou Rong a lot of favors, and if he could repay part of it with money, his parents and grandparents would feel more at ease...
Xu Hanhua is a businessman, Zhou Rong doesn't believe that he would give up profits for no reason, so he asked: "Are you in trouble in Pengcheng and need my help to solve it?"
Xu Hanhua admired Zhou Rong's sensitivity and told him with a smile about how he bought land but was unable to develop it.
Zhou Rong: "I just came to Pengcheng and I don't know anyone. I can't do anything about the trouble you're in. I also had to pay to solve the water and electricity problems on my two plots of land."
Xu Hanhua: "If it only costs a few hundred thousand, I am willing to accept it. The construction brothers are very hard-working, and it is reasonable to spend some money. I just don't want to be ripped off."
Zhou Rong: "I have a nephew who works in the municipal government. I will talk to him and try to help you solve the water and electricity problems at your construction site at a normal price."
Xu Hanhua: "Thank you, Aunt Rong!"
Zhou Rong: "Because of such a small matter, you gave up 25% of the profits, which makes me seem too 'bullying'. How about this, you take 40% and be responsible for the overall operation of the company and project follow-up. The remaining 60% will be 30% each between me and your aunt Xu Man.
I am a retired cadre, and your aunt Xu Man is a cadre relative. If some information is made public, it will cause controversy. You don’t need to go to the Industrial and Commercial Bureau to change your shares. We can just sign an agreement privately.”
Xu Hanhua: "Okay, I'll listen to Aunt Rong."
