Chapter 97 Buying Land
The bay is not big, and you can finish it at a glance.
A half-moon-shaped beach, in addition to a large rugged reef and tidal flat near the central pier, there are also some wastelands covered with weeds and thorns on both sides, and some rapeseed and sesame seeds are also sprinkled on some grounds. However, due to the saline-alkali land, they all grow like the hair on the head of a scalyptus, sparse and sparse, which seem to be as lush as the weeds.
"Shopkeeper Liu, how about it? If all the construction is completed according to the plan on the drawings, the three-mile-long coast will definitely be very prosperous. I thought I could build some brothels on it and open a few unique seafood restaurants to make it a unique and interesting resort!" Zhao Qi pointed at the two islands in the sea not far away and said with a smile.
"It's not bad, Dalang's plan is quite good!" Manager Liu smiled.
"The idea is good, but unfortunately it's too much money!" Yang Anping stroked his gray beard and looked quite dissatisfied.
"Yang Cun really doesn't plan to do it with us?" Manager Liu asked a little regretfully.
"The old man does not have as strong family property as Liu Yuanwai, nor does he have such great courage and mind. Dalang, please tell me the third master. According to your idea, how much does it cost to complete the bay? How long will it take to repair it?" Yang Anping was still hesitant.
"San Master, any business has risks, but as long as San Master joins in, I promise you will make money. If you think the risk is high, you will invest 20,000 guan. You don't need to participate in the construction. You don't need to participate in the management of the wharf on weekdays. Just help contact the exchanges of the canal. From now on, we will give you 2,000 guan bonuses every year. When you want to withdraw, we will return all the capital to you. If you are willing to bear higher risks, then work with us and Mr. Liu to make a contract letter based on the proportion of each investment. At that time, dividends will be distributed according to the contract. If you lose, you will bear the losses if you lose..."
"If I only invest money but don't manage it, I can really get two thousand guan a year, and I can get the capital back if I withdraw at any time?" Yang Anping was so surprised that he almost pulled off a few of his beards.
"Yangcun is just rest assured. I am going to invest all my wealth. Dalang's words are mine. If this plan completely fails by then, I will pay you a lot of 20,000 yuan you invested in. My Liu family will pay you a lot of money!" Manager Liu nodded seriously.
"Okay, that old man is joining in the fun. After you buy all the land, we will sign a contract and write it clearly in black and white. If it can be repaired, I can earn some money for the coffin!"
Manager Liu's words finally made Yang Anping feel ruthless. Although 20,000 yuan was a bit difficult for their family, it would not hurt their thorns. The most important thing is that they can get a dividend of 2,000 yuan a year, and they can still get back their capital at any time. It is equivalent to getting nearly 200 yuan a month if they do nothing. This is an investment that is stable and profitable.
As long as he signs the contract, he is not afraid that Manager Liu will regret it according to his ability. Zhao Qi cannot believe that he lives in a cave in a poor manner, but Manager Liu's words are still very important.
Yang Anping's decision was very happy. If you pay 2,000 guan a year, you can get the support of the Cao Transportation Department. This is also a stable profit and you can make money as long as you have a stable source of goods. As for Yang Anping's jealousy in the future, you want to invest more shares and share some dividends, and then continue to discuss it. In short, this is a good connection. With the skin of the official and businessman, it will be extremely simple to settle many things.
After a verbal agreement was decided, the three of them immediately began to continue discussing the port plan. Of course, Zhao Qi and Manager Liu also kept silent about the topic of laying eggs on the chicken. They had to wait until the land was obtained and the yamen was registered fairly. Only then could this matter be placed on the table and discussed in detail.
Yang Dayuan, Yang Dahu, Ermao Ermazi, Liu Dong and others stood by and chatted in vain.
For such a big business with an investment of hundreds of thousands of yuan and a big businessman like Jiangui Liu with a net worth of hundreds of thousands, they all took the initiative to lower their status as an audience member.
Two moments later, the pig's large intestine returned, bringing a group of prominent figures in Dawan Village and a few white-bearded old men. One of them is the village chief of Dawan Village, named Zhu Quan. Most of the others believed in Zhu. They used to be the same family, but they were similar to Yang Dayuan and Yang Dahu. They were either farmers or fishermen. The family situation was not much better. They worked hard every day to just make a family full and well-dressed.
Although the Song Dynasty was about to fall, the society was still very stable, especially Liangzhe Road, where the base camp of the Southern Song government, was basically the most stable area. Until the Mongols captured Lin'an, the Qingyuan Prefecture still resisted for several months before it was completely occupied. Of course, many people were also massacred by the Mongols, and a large number of people fled to places like Jiangxi and Fujian. Even after the Lin'an government surrendered, the small court who succeeded the throne also appointed Wen Tianxiang as the Privy Councilor and the Right Prime Minister to continue to recruit troops to fight against the Yuan Dynasty. In a few years, almost recovered the entire Jiangxi. Unfortunately, the heroes were old and the building was about to collapse. Thieves from all over the world were surging, and military officers from all over the world also held their own troops and refused to listen to the order. Under a pile of scattered sand, even the god of war was unable to turn the world back.
On the way here, Zhu Dayan had already revealed the news about Liu Dong's design to the people in the village, so everyone thought that Yang Dayuan, Zhao Qi and others were just fools and suckers, and there was no difficulty or obstacle in buying land. Moreover, this wasteland was originally garbage in the eyes of Dawan Villagers. Now that it can be sold for a sum of money, it is also a filling cake that fell from the sky. After the incident of Manager Liu repairing the wharf was ruined, the land was still from Dawan Village and no one could move it away.
The sales contract was signed soon, and Yang Dayuan came forward and bought more than 3,000 mu of mudflats in the entire bay, with a total price of only 1,500 jin. In addition, there were about ten fishermen scattered on this mudflat, all of which were low thatched courtyards. Yang Dayuan paid the village official of Dawan Village according to the relocation fee of 50 jin per household, and asked him to move all the fishermen within half a month. For this, the contract was suppressed and paid after the demolition was completed.
The contract was in triplicate, with Yang Dayuan and Zhu Quan signed on behalf of the buyer and seller respectively, and Yang Anping and several village elders from Dawan Village who came with him also signed together as witness.
After the contract was drafted, the two village officials and Yang Dayuan took a bus to the town's dental shop to find the dentals as insurance, and then sent them to the Harbour Office to register and pay taxes.
After finishing my work, most of the day has passed.
