Reborn, back to a small county town to become a wealthy family

Chapter 793 A Picturesque Mountain Villa

The father-in-law and son-in-law discussed the name for more than ten minutes, and in the end, Jiang Yuanshan made the final decision and named the new energy vehicle brand "Tianqi".

"Whether it's the new energy industry or the automobile manufacturing industry, we are both novices in the industry."

After finalizing the name, Jiang Yuanshan brought up the matter of the preparatory team: "Although we are still in the early stages of project preparation, I think we should hire a professional to take overall charge."

"Currently, there are several domestic car companies that are doing well in the field of new energy vehicle manufacturing. It would be best if our chief executive officer could be poached from one of these companies."

Luo Yang chimed in, "Of course, we'd be even more welcoming if they could bring a team with them."

They are willing to invest billions of dollars and don't care about paying an extra six months' salary to a professional team.

"If you want to poach people from these large automakers, it's not just a matter of offering high salaries."

Jiang Yuanshan has experience in this area: "Just like Yuanfan Solar, the current general manager was poached from a large company. In addition to a high salary, he was also promised stock options, and before the company goes public, he will also receive a portion according to the senior management's share."

"You should have that kind of perspective."

Luo Yang smiled and said, "Let alone companies that are preparing to go public, I have several companies in Shanghai that are not planning to go public. The executives have all been given bonus shares, and we have signed agreements with them that as long as they work for the company for more than 5 years, these bonus shares will be converted into regular shares."

If a company is eligible to go public, but the boss is preventing it from doing so, internal executives will inevitably have grievances and may even become disloyal.

After all, a company going public can create several billionaires and numerous millionaires or multi-millionaires, so many people call the process of a company going public a wealth-creating machine.

"There's also the question of where the company headquarters should be registered."

Jiang Yuanshan is a meticulous thinker, and he put the matters that needed to be discussed between the two of them on the table for communication: "Do you think it would be more convenient to place it in Nanjing or it would be more appropriate to place it in Shanghai?"

He didn't mention Yangshi at all; it's a major city with too low a level of development.

"If it weren't for the industrial park issue, I would definitely prioritize Shanghai."

Luo Yang thought for a moment and said, "It seems that placing it in Jinling is still the best way to maximize our interests."

"You mean you want to use this investment opportunity to include talent acquisition in the negotiations?"

"It's not just about attracting talent."

Luo Yang smiled and said, "In this matter, we can refer to the example of the Shanghai government introducing Tesla. Of course, we don't have Tesla's reputation, and our investment is not as large as theirs, but we can still learn from the fact that the provincial capital helped coordinate resources from all aspects."

When this is mentioned, Jiang Yuanshan thinks of the power battery factory he invested in in Minhang.

He knew that there were definitely more than just one supporting enterprise like theirs in the various development zones of Shanghai; rather, the entire upstream and downstream industrial chain of supporting enterprises had been brought together.

The government is helping to coordinate this, which not only saves costs for businesses but also saves them a lot of time.

If a company were to do it on its own, the difficulty would be several levels higher.

Jiangsu Province is also a province with a developed manufacturing industry. If the provincial capital is willing to help, the results will be no worse than those in Shanghai.

"I thought you were going to mention Nanjing's university resources."

After listening, Jiang Yuanshan laughed: "I hadn't considered that. You have a broader perspective and more comprehensive ideas."

The two drank tea while discussing the matters that needed to be considered in the early stages of the project investment.

Time passes unconsciously.

"Has the matter with High-Ranking Official He been settled?"

After finishing their business, the conversation became more casual, and Luo Yang casually asked about things he was curious about.

"We can only say that it has achieved the expected results. As for the final outcome, no one can say for sure."

Jiang Yuanshan's reply was more cautious: "There's no such thing as being 100% certain about these things, because there are too many unpredictable factors involved. Even a small accident can change the outcome. Secrets are kept, and leaks lead to ruin, so the fewer people who know about this, the better."

There's no need to ask any further questions now that things have come to this point.

According to Luo Yang's understanding, barring any unforeseen circumstances, it's almost certainly going to succeed.

"I inquired about this matter to find out how High-Ranking Official He felt."

Luo Yang proactively changed the subject, saying, "If the leader is in a good mood, I plan to visit him tomorrow and ask about the progress of the credit cooperative reform, and when would be a good time for me to get involved."

"You don't need to visit tomorrow."

After stopping his son-in-law, Jiang Yuanshan explained, "I already asked for you when I was in Jinling."

Luo Yang immediately put down his teacup and looked at his father-in-law with a happy expression.

"This matter will be discussed again at the executive meeting this Friday."

Holding a kettle, Jiang Yuanshan scalded a purple clay teapot with boiling water while explaining, "At the meeting, he will ask the Financial Affairs Office and the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission to set a timetable for the restructuring, striving to initially complete the restructuring by the end of December, and establish a new rural commercial bank after the Lunar New Year."

"Then I'll visit President Xue of the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China tomorrow to strengthen our relationship."

Luo Yang immediately said he would go and solidify the relationship in order to pave the way for a smooth acquisition of shares later.

"I need to do what I promised them last time as soon as possible."

Jiang Yuanshan reminded Luo Yang, "Be more generous and give them the benefits in advance. It will improve their first impression of you and make them feel more confident when they come to visit."

The last time we went to dinner, Jiang Yuanshan's endorsement was one aspect, but Luo Yang's promise to provide some business in deposit-taking, lending, and private banking was, to some extent, a test of the bank's sincerity towards its partners.

"Then I'll bring some of the business over tomorrow."

Luo Yang smiled and said, "Anyway, Zhengyang Group has a lot of liquid funds in its accounts. Let them open a corporate account at the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China and transfer 5000 million yuan into it first. Also, let them open a private account and deposit 2000 million yuan. As for the loan business..."

"How's your modern agricultural demonstration base coming along?"

When the topic of loans came up, Jiang Yuanshan naturally thought of the farm project, which he was quite interested in, so he asked about it.

"We've already contacted all the relevant departments, and we've hired surveying and design firms. The preliminary planning and design are almost complete, and we should have the renderings ready this Friday."

Luo Yang relayed the information truthfully: "Nanjing Agricultural University has also contacted the College of Agriculture's Department of Agronomy, but they haven't taken it seriously enough. I plan to take some time next week to go to Nanjing and personally discuss the matter of establishing a demonstration base with the leaders of the College of Agriculture."

What is the initial planned area?

Jiang Yuanshan was most concerned about the scale; as for the progress, he only needed to know the result.

"The preliminary planned demonstration base area is 3673 mu of land, including 90 mu of construction land, 1120 mu of forest transformation land, 2113 mu of agricultural planting land, and 220 mu of aquaculture water area." Dong Dawei originally reported to Luo Yang that the construction land was 55 mu with a plot ratio of 1.8, but Luo Yang thought it was not enough, so he changed the quota to 90 mu and reduced the forest transformation area by 35 mu to balance the total land use quota.

Goodness 3673 mu.

Upon hearing the figure of over 3,000 mu, Jiang Yuanshan was taken aback: "Are you really planning to start a farm?"

"Dad, since we're going to do it, let's go big. We're not short of money anyway."

Luo Yang smiled and said, "I mentioned to you before that I plan to do real estate development in Yang City for a few years. I won't take the money out of Yang City. This agricultural demonstration base is part of that money. In addition, I also plan to do a few projects in Xishu, such as hot spring resorts or something. I'll use it up until it's all gone."

Jiang Yuanshan was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter.

He hadn't taken this matter seriously before, but now it seems his son-in-law is really going to do it.

"Then I can take advantage of this opportunity."

At this moment, Jiang Yuanshan didn't mention how much money he was going to contribute, because his son-in-law's words were telling him that he didn't need to make any additional investment.

"Nearly half of the forest transformation is done as a nursery, which can be a business project for the resort. Especially since I plan to develop real estate in a few years, the landscaping for the project can be directly purchased from my own nursery. Moreover, I know several real estate developers in Shanghai, so I don't have to worry about the sales of the nursery. Therefore, the profits from this business can completely cover the expenses after the resort starts operating."

Luo Yang spoke eloquently: "The other quarter is planted with various fruit trees. In the future, in addition to providing fruit for our own consumption, we can also give them to relatives and friends, or even distribute them as company benefits, which is also a good option."

Jiang Yuanshan: "."

My son-in-law is such a capitalist! He built a resort and even the fruit he gives out as employee benefits is self-produced and self-sold. No wonder he's making a fortune.

"What's the other quarter of what?"

After hearing the previous introduction, Lao Jiang became even more interested in how to utilize the remaining quarter.

"The forest stand transformation of the remaining quarter area mainly considers three aspects."

Luo Yang frankly stated, "Part of the project is for free-range poultry in the mountains, another part is for local specialty mountain products, such as bamboo shoots, tea, wild mushrooms, and bamboo fungus. Finally, we plan to develop some unique landscape plantings, such as rose gardens, lavender gardens, and cherry blossom gardens."

The last part is about his personal preferences.

It has a similar feel to the creation of trendy tourist attractions in later generations.

In the first few years, it may not have been very noticeable, but after Douyin (TikTok) became popular, the scenic spots he created, combined with fruit picking and the picking of local specialty mountain products, will definitely become a popular tourist destination in the entire southern Jiangsu and even the Yangtze River Delta region.

The benefits of the extra 35 mu of construction land will become apparent at that time.

Even if you just build some bed and breakfasts, you can make so much money that you won't know what to do with it.

Of course, Luo Yang isn't short of money, so this income is dispensable to him. But his relatives need it, so he can easily make some money for them.

Moreover, such a large-scale popular tourist attraction can boost tourism resources in the area and make Shuangfeng Town more lively.

This is another way to give back to one's hometown.

In addition to the more than 1,000 mu of forest land transformation, there are also more than 2,000 mu of agricultural land.

"For the agricultural land, we will generally grow staple crops such as rice and wheat. Of course, we will select the best varieties. This part will definitely rely on Nanjing Agricultural University. This is one of the reasons why I am discussing cooperation with Nanjing Agricultural University. I want to grow the rice with the best taste!"

In Luo Yang's memory, he once ate a type of rice he couldn't remember when he was a child. When the new rice was first harvested, it was so delicious that he could eat a whole bowl of it without any side dishes. It was so fragrant, sweet, and sticky.
As for authentic Wuchang rice, he didn't even know if he had ever eaten it.

"You can have this!"

When talking about these things, Jiang Yuanshan was also very enthusiastic: "At that time, we will mainly supply our own family with this rice, and give the extra to friends and such. It's much better than giving health products, cigarettes and alcohol!"

At this point, Old Jiang forgot all about making tea and waved his arms, saying, "And rapeseed oil and peanut oil, it's best to use oil that we grow ourselves and press, so it's safe and healthy to eat."

"I think so too."

In this regard, the father-in-law and son-in-law shared the same opinion.

"In addition to grains and oils, the agricultural planting area also plans to ask the agricultural college to cultivate a batch of high-quality coarse grains, such as corn, sweet potatoes, and pumpkins."

Luo Yang picked up where his father-in-law left off, continuing to describe his vision: "Besides that, all kinds of vegetables and fruits, as long as they are commonly used, should be planted, and we should carefully select varieties to cultivate those with excellent quality and the best taste."

"Wow, our own vegetable garden is going to be huge from now on!"

Jiang Yuanshan's mouth watered just thinking about it; that was over two thousand acres of agricultural land.
"In addition, I also plan to designate a separate area."

Luo Yang then smiled mysteriously, dipped his finger in some tea, and drew a diagram on the table while explaining, "Each divided area is about six-tenths of an acre. These vegetable plots are divided into several smaller plots by small bricks, with paved paths leading to them. A wooden hut with a roof is built next to each plot, and running water is connected to it."

"So elaborate?"

Jiang Yuanshan was slightly taken aback: "You're also planning to take it out and run it?"

"Not open to the public."

Luo Yang smiled and said, "We'll reserve a space for our business partners or friends to grow, harvest, and cook vegetables on weekends. It's like remote farming; our resort will take care of the watering and maintenance during the week."

Upon hearing his son-in-law's description, Jiang Yuanshan's eyes widened in surprise.

Then she gave him a thumbs up.

"You've finally got it!"

Jiang Yuanshan laughed and said, "This is much more in line with the other party's preferences than organizing a dinner party, inviting them to sing karaoke, or giving them cigarettes and alcohol. I believe no one can refuse such a gift!"

After praising him, he looked at Luo Yang with a surprised expression.

"Yangyang, how is your head structured?"

He looked around and said, "I don't see any difference between them and us!"

This is a joke, but it's also a very high compliment.

Jiang Yuanshan was unaware that ten years later, this model would be ubiquitous in Zhejiang Province. Such a small vegetable garden, along with a residential house, could fetch prices of up to a million yuan, and even if the price was lower, it would still be several hundred thousand yuan.

It is very popular among people in the first division who want to enjoy the fun of rural life.

Luo Yang simply copied it beforehand.
