Return to 88: Starting from Marrying My Sister-in-law

After listening to this, Lu Yang agreed with it deeply.

We are not afraid that the villagers will jump out to oppose now. We are afraid that these villagers will not oppose now, but instead raise their hands to support it.

But the shares were sold.

After the money is distributed to every household, the villagers can only be happy for a while.

But what about the future?
The mining company cannot grow legs and cannot run away, so it will have to stay rooted in the mountain behind this village for at least a few decades until all the coal under the ground is mined out.

It is conceivable that its annual coal production will increase exponentially in the future.

The same goes for dividends.

By then, won’t anyone be jealous?

Of course.

We must never overestimate the moral bottom line of the villagers of Shanghuai Village. There will definitely be people who will be jealous and gossip. As long as enough people talk about it, today's incident will be dug up. Once it is dug up, the old village party secretary who signed the contract and sold the shares as the representative of the village collective will definitely become the target of public criticism.

Being scolded is certain.

Then wouldn’t Lu Yang’s father-in-law, Carpenter Yin, be scolded?

You will definitely be scolded.

Even Lu Yang, the son-in-law of Carpenter Yin and the actual major individual shareholder of the Houshan Mining Company in the village, would definitely be implicated and blamed together.

By then, there will be those who are rich and unkind, who oppress the people in their hometown, and those who are black-hearted capitalists who will even cheat the villagers of their money.

There are definitely people who will say things that are 100 times more unpleasant than these.

They don't care. It was Lu Yang who led them out of poverty and into prosperity. The whole family can have enough food to eat, and now every household can afford to build a new house.

All they care about is that their interests have been damaged. The dividends that used to be paid at the end of each year are no longer available. As for the fact that they themselves agreed to sell the shares before, and they have received the money and have spent it long ago, they will never mention a word about it.

Because this is human nature. Human nature is inherently selfish. What we worry about is not the lack of wealth but the inequality of wealth.

Unless the person who bought the shares was not Lu Yang, nor his father-in-law Carpenter Yin, but some other stranger.

By then, even if the villagers regretted their decision and wanted to cause trouble, they wouldn’t be able to find anyone.

Lu Yang thought about it, and then said seriously: "If that's the case, then let's delay it for a while. If you believe me, old village secretary, there will definitely be changes in no time."

After thinking it over carefully, he decided not to let his father-in-law's plan succeed.

The old village party secretary also nodded in agreement, then smiled bitterly and said, "It can only be like this."

At present, many families in the village agree to sell their shares. As long as the person who buys the shares can offer a high price, two or three times higher than the market price, it doesn’t matter if they sell it, and everyone can share the money happily.

With this money, plus the dividends saved in the past year or two, it would be more than enough to start a small business or a small factory. Maybe I could become as prosperous as the father-in-law and son-in-law who were the two richest men in the village?
Take a chance and turn a bicycle into a motorcycle. There are definitely many people who hold this idea.

But there are some families who are content with what they have, do not have too high desires, and have never thought about doing big business or setting up a factory. They just want to live their own lives well and then get a stable dividend every year.

These two family situations, two extremes, plus some wavering and muddled thinking in the middle, make up the current public opinion in Shanghuai Village.

The old village party secretary was caught in the middle, and was annoyed by their endless nagging. He wanted to just give up, or give in to certain people and fulfill their wishes. But he was worried that in the future, some villagers would regret it and point at his vest and curse him. Then he would be like a dumb person eating bitter herbs, unable to speak out his grievances, with yellow mud sticking to his crotch, which would be shit anyway.

Drag and drag.

But how long can it last?

In fact, he still had some things to say to Lu Yang. In fact, it was not only Lu Yang's father-in-law who was eyeing the 15% shares of the village mining company. In the past one or two years, many people had been coming to him through various connections, using threats and inducements to try to take away the 15% shares.

But he just gritted his teeth and refused.

For this reason, countless people regard him as a thorn in their eyes and a thorn in their flesh, wishing that he would die sooner so that they could give up the position of village party secretary.

Haha, he is not greedy for money, so does his heir not want money either?

Just watch.

The village will have a new leadership in less than a year.

By then, no matter whether it is his position as the village party secretary or his temporary position as the village chief, there will definitely be fierce fighting. Even if this old man has been in this position for 30 years, he may not be able to continue. It is possible that a document from above will directly remove him, making it impossible for him, the former village party secretary, to even be ineligible to run for election.

The question is that we are getting older and should give more opportunities to young people.

Nowadays, there are some people who will do anything to make money. If you cannot corrupt them, then just get rid of them. Is that difficult?
Cricket is just a village official.

With a heavy heart, the old village party secretary got out of Lu Yang's Mercedes-Benz.

Return to the village committee office building.

Facing Carpenter Yin who was already waiting for him in the village committee office, he directly replied: "You can go back. The village's shares in the mining company cannot be sold for the time being. I need to think about it more."

Carpenter Yin was dumbfounded.

"No, uncle, I've even prepared the money, and the price I'm offering is twice the market price. Go ask if anyone in the village is dissatisfied. We're all family, so instead of selling it to outsiders, why not just sell it to me? Uncle, why don't you consider it again? If it really doesn't work out, I'll give you 10 yuan as a reward, okay?"

He was also anxious. In order to raise money and get the 15% stake in the mining company, he had just broken off relations with his son-in-law. Now the other party told him not to sell. How could he not be anxious?

But as soon as he said this, the old village party secretary's face immediately turned dark.

"Bullshit, who wants your 10 yuan? Get out of here, as far away as you can. As long as I am the village party secretary, you, a piece of ass, can't even think of buying any shares of the mining company from me. Get out."

The old man looked furious.

You know, before he even received the money, he was already worried that someone would criticize him in the future and say that he was abusing his power and bending the law in this transaction.

Now, the money has really been sent. Doesn't that prove his guilt of abuse of power and bending the law?

No wonder he was so angry that he yelled at Lu Yang's father-in-law and told him to get out! Carpenter Yin was so stunned by the scolding that he felt wronged, shrank his neck, and quickly stepped back.

I wanted to curse back.

But the other party was not only the village party secretary, but also his elder. According to the family tree, he had to call the other party his uncle.

What?

There is nothing we can do!
He wiped the saliva sprayed by the other party on his face, then turned around in shame, gritted his teeth secretly, and left a cruel word before leaving.

"Don't regret it."

10 yuan is already a lot of money, but you still think it’s too little and you don’t want it, right?
Fine, I will use this 10 yuan to get rid of you and make sure you can’t be the village party secretary.

See how you can stop me then!!!

At this time, Carpenter Yin was no longer the honest man he used to be. He devoted himself to his infant son and wanted to build a great Yin empire for him.

He had to prove himself and make his ex-wife and two daughters regret abandoning him and leaving him.

Lu Yang had no idea that his father-in-law had become so motivated.

He went to the county again with his newly appointed secretary.

The old acquaintance I met this time was Section Chief Jia. No, he should be called Director Jia.

The most capable man under Sister Du at the time, the actual person in charge of Zhao County Small Commodity Wholesale Market, has now risen in position as the Investment Promotion Office has finally been upgraded to the County Investment Promotion Bureau.

Lu Yang just came to give money.

"Boss Lu, thank you for your strong support. I believe that with your participation, the third phase of our county's small commodity wholesale market project will definitely be built into a landmark in our county, and the future is definitely promising."

"Yes, yes, Director Jia is right. Our market has been praised by the province and has been hailed by many business newspapers as one of the largest wholesale markets in the central and southern regions of our country. This is a great honor. And Director Jia, you should own at least half of the military seals here, right?"

"Cheers to Director Jia!"

"No, no, no, that's not right. How can you say this is my military medal? It's obviously Director Du's military medal. Although Director Du has been transferred, she was the one who initiated and established the Zhao County Small Commodity Free Wholesale Market. The biggest contributor here can only be Director Du. I, Jia, am just copying others' words and taking advantage of Director Du's fame. Come, let's toast to Director Du."

At the dinner table, there would always be young comrades from the Investment Promotion Bureau who would flatter their director.

Lu Yang laughed when he heard it.

But Director Jia, who had climbed from obscurity to this position, knew how to be unaware of the importance of the matter. He immediately stood up and stopped the young comrade who wanted to flatter him.

You don't have any eyesight, right?

Boss Lu is still at the table. Boss Lu is Director Du’s sworn brother. You are praising me so much and reducing Director Du’s presence. Do you want to put me, Old Jia, on the spot?

Don't be fooled by his smiling face now, holding up his glass and saying that everyone should toast to the old leader Director Du who has been transferred away, he is actually cursing in his heart and putting a cross on the resume of the young comrade in the bureau who flattered him but ended up hitting the horse's hoof.

Lu Yang didn't care.

If he said raise a toast, then let's raise a toast. He came here today just to have a meal and some drinks. The specific details of the cooperation have already been handed over to the people below to discuss.

The third phase of Zhao County's small commodity wholesale market was originally planned to invest 2000 million yuan to build eight five-story commodity wholesale buildings connected by sky bridges. Each building will be equipped with an elevator. The total planned building area is 5 square meters, and it is expected to have more than 3 wholesale outlets and even two parking lots.

This plan is definitely ahead of its time. In the county economy, at least there is no rival that can match it. The reason why so much money can be spent at one time is thanks to the county's prosperous finances in recent years.

But Lu Yang is an experienced person.

He was also very clear that after the completion of the third phase of this small commodity wholesale market, it would indeed bring Zhao County's small commodity wholesale economy to a new level.

But then?
In less than 10 years, crowded aisles, narrow stores, poor fire protection, sewers that had to be prevented from flooding at all times, and parking difficulties have directly led to the possibility of this small commodity wholesale market becoming a large national comprehensive wholesale market.

It is too late to build a new market now, and the current business environment does not allow it. Moreover, many merchants are simply unwilling to relocate. Their business is doing well, so why should they be forced to relocate to a different environment?
What about compensation?
Has the compensation been in place?

Not to mention, merchants from other places have long been accustomed to purchasing goods in this original market. Once they change the environment and move to other places, how many of their original customers will be lost?
It can be said that doing this is simply seeking death.

Unless another large fourth phase is built next to the original wholesale market?

But what about the land?

Once the area near the market is developed, every inch of land will be extremely valuable. By that time, in ten years, there will be tall buildings everywhere and residential areas will be densely packed. How can we expropriate the land and build the fourth phase of a small commodity wholesale market?
It will inevitably be delayed again and again, with wrangling every day. In the end, when online shopping takes off and the internet celebrity economy emerges, it will be a complete mess.

Because that was what happened in the previous life. In the end, thirty years later, the government of Zhao County made up its mind and finally built a new free wholesale market a few kilometers away from the original wholesale market, spending tens of billions of yuan. It even had a very high-sounding name, something like International Trade City. All the merchants from the original market were driven there. But what happened in the end?

It was a huge pit, and nothing but a mess.

Now that Lu Yang has joined, he cannot do things the same way as before. With his foresight, he decided to do it in one go.

An additional 5000 million yuan will be invested, with 2000 million yuan invested by the county, plus the land, the total investment is said to be 20 million yuan. It is planned that after the new market is completed, the total construction area will be no less than square meters, and there will be dozens of supporting facilities, integrating logistics, warehousing, storage, catering, accommodation, entertainment, medical care, fire protection, post and telecommunications, banks, courts, police stations and other management agencies and entertainment facilities.

After completion, the storefronts will be rented out uniformly and both parties will jointly set up a company to operate it. In view of the various difficulties that may arise at that time, the government will also set up a comprehensive service office to be responsible for administrative management and supervision.

This is probably what the letter of intent between the two parties is like, but there is still room for discussion in the end, such as who should have a larger share of the equity of each party, and who should serve as the executives of the jointly established company.

Is it the government that provides the people?

Or is it Lu Yang who is sending people?

Financial supervision issues, construction of supporting facilities around the trade city, and other issues all need to be discussed one by one...

In short, it’s not enough to just have the money.

What’s the use of a meal?
