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

Chapter 722 All Needs Take Care of: Food, Clothing, Housing, and Transportation

The family was discussing Luo Yang and Jiang Fan's marriage and having children at the dinner table, and before they knew it, it was past 7:30.

I originally said I would only share one bottle of liquor with my son, but we ended up opening a second one as we drank.

Gu Honglan rarely saw such a scene, so she didn't stop her husband and son from continuing to drink.

"By the way, how's your grandfather's matter going?"

Luo Jianguo only returned from Jiangcheng on Thursday and was unaware that Luo Yang had already finalized the villa deal with Fu Bin and Jinyang Real Estate.

"Last week, the boss of Jinyang Real Estate went to Shanghai to talk to Fu Bin about land. I went there and took the opportunity to resolve my grandfather's villa replacement issue."

Over the next period of time, he described the whole story in detail.

"what?"

After hearing his son's story, Luo Jianguo was stunned: "You're willing to have Guotai Real Estate build 20 villas for your grandfather's family and spend tens of millions to buy them?"

"Dad, I don't care how much Fu Bin earns, I'm sure I won't lose out."

Luo Yang smiled and said, "Don't be fooled by the fact that the house is in Shuangfeng Town. This kind of low-density villa community will be very expensive in the future. The price per square meter will not be less than 15000."

"It can't be that high, can it?"

Gu Honglan couldn't help but raise her objection: "The two-story houses we sell to outsiders in our village are only 20,000 to 30,000 yuan each. Even the self-built houses in the town are only 40,000 to 50,000 yuan each. How can you say that a villa costs four or five million yuan?"

"Mom, your information is outdated."

Luo Yang smiled and said, "Ask your dad what the price is for the mixed-use villas in the first phase of the industrial park pilot project."

Gu Honglan's gaze then turned to her husband.

"The smallest townhouse is a little over 200 square meters, and each unit sells for a little over 30 yuan."

"Mom, did you hear that?"

Luo Yang shrugged and said, "This is a mixed-use commercial and residential land plot with a land use term of only 50 years. Moreover, it is located on the edge of the town. The land being demolished and requisitioned was originally from the village. Compared to the self-built houses in our hometown, the price has increased tenfold."

Even so, the unit price is only 1500.

Gu Honglan remained unconvinced and said, "You think this is Shanghai, where a square meter sells for 15000?"

She worked with Luo Jianguo on construction sites in Pudong. Back then, the opening price of the Four Seasons Garden was only 18000. Now she lives in the old city of Songjiang, where most of the surrounding houses are only a little over 10,000.

"I wasn't talking about now."

Luo Yang smiled and said, "In four or five years, the price of ordinary commercial housing in Shuangfeng Town will reach four or five thousand yuan per square meter, and the price of higher-end residential communities can reach seven or eight thousand yuan. As for the rare villas, it is no joke that the price per unit will reach 15000 yuan."

"Luo Yang, according to your logic, won't housing prices in the city be even higher in four or five years?"

Jiang Fan, who was listening nearby, also became curious and couldn't help but join the discussion: "A villa like ours would sell for over ten million!"

"Ten million?"

Luo Yang snorted and then glanced around the dining table. "Four or five years from now, this price will only buy you a small townhouse. A detached villa like ours, with a building area of ​​four or five hundred square meters and a yard of nearly one acre, will start at 2000 million."

Several people were shocked by these words.

"No wonder you're planning to do real estate development back in your hometown."

Luo Jianguo suddenly sighed.

He initially transferred most of Guoyang Construction, including the general contracting contract for the Four Seasons Garden project that he had already undertaken, and incorporated it all into Guotai, thus acquiring a 20% stake.

He originally intended to take his eldest apprentice, Chu Jianjun, to Guotai Real Estate, but his youngest son poached him to be in charge of the ready-mixed cement mortar plant.

Not long after, Luo Yang made a lot of new investments in Yang City, creating a great demand for infrastructure. As a result, Guoyang Construction, which had previously been a shell company, was reorganized and has undertaken several engineering projects in the past year and a half.

The projects include: Yuanfan Group's new photovoltaic production capacity plant construction project, Zhengyang Group's new plant construction project, Guangfan Wind Power Zone construction project, Deyang Motor Plant construction project, and Xishu Town cultural tourism construction project.
The annual output value even exceeded that of Luo Jianguo at his peak.

I recently heard my eldest apprentice mention that Luo Yang had him set up a cultural tourism real estate company and cooperate with San Tai in Shanghai to establish an urban real estate development company in Yang City.
If Luo Jianguo had known that Guoyang would develop into its current scale, he wouldn't have needed to go to Guotai Industrial Real Estate.

"Large-scale real estate development in Yangshi is inevitable."

Luo Yang knew the hidden meaning in Luo Jianguo's words, but ignored it. Instead, he explained from another angle: "Real estate companies from outside the city will flock to Yang City, constantly acquiring land and driving up housing prices. In the end, they will make money in Yang City and then take it away. Since that's the case, why can't I earn a portion of that money? After all, I'm a local. I'll contribute the land fees and pay the taxes I'm supposed to, and I'm willing to keep the money I earn in Yang City to continue investing."

Luo Jianguo: "."

"When you say you're making a portion, how much do you mean?"

Gu Honglan was more concerned about money, and asked directly, "Is there several hundred million?"

Jiang Fan: "."

Luo Yang briefly recalled that from 06 to 09, his hometown had at least 170 million square meters of commercial housing developed annually, and even more than 230 million square meters in one year.

Of course, some of them are in rural towns, but the majority are in urban areas, accounting for at least 80%.

This means that during the four years from 2006 to 2009, the annual market size of new homes in Yangshi reached 10 to 20 billion yuan, with the total amount over the four years exceeding 40 to 50 billion yuan.

It's important to know that these past few years have seen soaring housing prices, and the net profit of development projects can even exceed 20%.

A market worth over 10 billion yuan, and Luo Yang takes one-fifth of it. Not much, right?

"If you do well, you can earn one or two billion."

Luo Yang replied to his mother, "On average, we earn about three to four hundred million yuan a year."

Empress Dowager Gu: "."

"Such a large sum of money, all of it is going to be invested in ZY City?"

After a moment of distraction, Gu Honglan asked reluctantly, "Are there really that many projects to invest in?"

"I'm afraid it won't be enough."

Luo Yang smiled and counted on his fingers, saying, "Didn't I mention before that I plan to get a piece of land in the mountains and build a mountain villa? Not only will we farm there, but we'll also raise all kinds of poultry, and plant fruit trees all over the mountain. In the future, most of the food our family eats will be grown and raised by ourselves."

"I know this."

Jiang Fan smiled and replied, "My dad said he wants to invest money too."

"To run a resort like this smoothly, you need to invest at least two or three hundred million yuan."

After saying that, Luo Yang continued, "If I have the means, I plan to set up a private hospital in my hometown. It doesn't need to be large, and it doesn't need to have all the departments. It just needs to be able to take care of my family members' minor illnesses." Before he could finish speaking, Luo Jianguo, Gu Honglan, and Jiang Fan were already shocked and their mouths were agape.

"For complex and difficult cases, you still need to go to a major hospital in Shanghai or the capital. The provincial capital is not good enough."

Luo Yang was completely absorbed in his description: "I only have a preliminary idea right now, and I estimate the investment will be at least 500 million yuan, and the investment will definitely increase as time goes on."

"son."

Gu Honglan gently interrupted her son's endless chatter: "You're not going to say you want to invest in a school next, are you?"

"Ok?"

Luo Yang was stunned for a moment, then his eyes lit up.

"Mom, I wouldn't have thought of that if you hadn't told me."

He said excitedly, "That's a good idea, but we don't have to invest entirely ourselves. We can get a group of business owners involved, and our family can hold about 30% of the shares."

Empress Dowager Gu's heart was pounding uncontrollably.

"Son, tell me all the other investments you have in one go."

She couldn't help but say, "If you tell it in segments, Mom can't handle the shock."

"whee."

Sitting next to the Empress Dowager, Jiang Fan took her arm and said, "Mom, Luo Yang has taken care of all our needs, from food and clothing to housing and transportation. That's good. You won't have to worry about anything in the future."

Indeed, garment factories also have them.

"You're really planning to do that?"

Luo Jianguo, who hadn't spoken until now, couldn't help but say, "Yang City isn't very big. Aren't you going too far by doing this?"

"Dad, I've only just begun."

Luo Yang raised his glass to Luo Jianguo before continuing, "Let alone some bosses in inland areas, even in first-tier cities like Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, and Shenzhen, some big bosses have a more comprehensive range of businesses than your son is trying to get!"

Jiang Fan looked at Luo Yang with adoring eyes.

There were some things she didn't reveal.

For example, an urban complex, a commercial center that integrates shopping, leisure, and entertainment.

For example, credit cooperatives
If the father-in-law and mother-in-law knew that their son wanted to start a bank, I wonder what they would think.

The second bottle of wine was never finished.

It wasn't that Luo Yang and Luo Jianguo couldn't drink anymore, but mainly because Jiang Fan was also there tonight, and it wouldn't be good to get Luo Yang drunk. Gu Honglan waited until the two of them had drunk about 7 liang (350ml) before starting to clear the table, and the father and son had no choice but to move to the tea room on the first basement floor of the villa to chat.

“Yangyang, although you have so many businesses in Yang City, you have never let your relatives get involved before.”

Sipping the Pu'er tea brewed by his son, Luo Jianguo, now more alert, asked earnestly, "If it's really like you say, with plans to build a resort, a hospital, and invest in a school, then inevitably the family will have to get involved!"

"I was prepared."

Luo Yang clicked his tongue and said, "Your son earns so much money, he'll definitely have to give some away. Besides, in the past, the relatives in the family weren't so sycophantic; the relationships were quite harmonious. Your generation of siblings are close and value family ties. If I'm not busy, you'll be in a difficult position. But in my generation, the relationships between my cousins ​​and other female relatives will be less close. We'll handle things however we want then. You won't see it anyway, so out of sight, out of mind."

"You little bastard!"

After scolding his son, Luo Jianguo laughed.

He gave Luo Yang a strange look: "You're not that old, but you see things very clearly."

Whether it's the three brothers Luo Jianmin, Luo Jianguo, and Luo Jianjun, or the seven siblings Gu Honglan, they grew up together and their feelings for each other are definitely different. It's even somewhat similar to a large family in ancient times. Even after they separated, their family ties remained strong.

But by Luo Yang's generation...
In fact, ever since he started high school, he has basically only been able to play with his cousins ​​during the Spring Festival. At other times, they only have the opportunity to meet during major holidays or when relatives hold weddings or funerals.

They don't even make a phone call on ordinary days.

There was hardly any deep affection between them.

"besides."

Luo Jianguo took a few puffs of his cigarette, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Your business should be the focus. Don't let the resort, hospital, school, or anything like that drag down your main business. That's what you call putting the cart before the horse. There are many examples like that in Yangshi. I know several bosses who made money and started diversifying their businesses. In the end, they couldn't even move the millstone anymore and had to go bankrupt. Once they fell, they could never get back up!"

"Dad, I know, I'm aware of it."

Leaving aside the future returns from real estate in Yang City, the anticipated gains from US crude oil alone have already exceeded Luo Yang's expectations.

He originally thought he could raise around 20 billion US dollars, and the corresponding allocation was basically done. However, after the events of last week, he found that the final return might reach around 35 billion US dollars.

With an extra 15 billion US dollars, equivalent to 100 billion RMB in cash flow, Luo Yang's ambitions swelled instantly.

Given the current situation, we definitely need to develop mobile phones.

In the future, the group's investment department should provide sufficient funding, and we should not miss the opportunity to get involved in many promising startups.

The film and entertainment sector also needs to increase its investment.

Furthermore, Luo Yang's own private treasury is bound to expand significantly. He can also buy more worthwhile stocks, both domestic and international, which will yield at least several dozen times the return over the next ten years. How could he possibly miss out on such an opportunity?

"As long as you know what's going on."

Luo Jianguo flicked some ash into the ashtray: "In this respect, you could learn from your father-in-law. After establishing three main industries, the other diversifications were just casual ventures driven by demand, with minimal investment. Even if they lost money, it wouldn't be a major blow."

Gee.
His own father probably doesn't know that Lao Jiang has been dragged into this mess by Luo Yang.

First came the wind power equipment manufacturing project, then the investment in a new energy vehicle power battery plant, and later the new energy vehicle manufacturing project.
In total, Jiang Yuanshan has invested more than 100 billion yuan in these three cooperative projects.

As for other smaller projects, such as premixed cement mortar and power banks, which require tens of millions of yuan in investment, those are small sums.

The father-in-law and son-in-law are now deeply intertwined.

Oh.

Almost forgot about the bank; Luo Yang also wanted to drag Lao Jiang into the fray.

His thoughts wandered whenever he thought about it.

I wonder if the high-ranking official has put the reform on the agenda?
Is the city government planning to bring this up for discussion at a meeting?
Should we contact He Gaoguan's secretary, Zhu Hong, next week to try and find out some information?
Distracted, he didn't even notice Jiang Fan walking up behind him.
