Zuo Yongsi has arrived at Qingshi Town, which is not far from Caojiazhuang.
With the north section of the road leading to Caojiazhuang through Taodong Village widened into a two-way four-lane, and Taodong Village and Zhujiazhuang each expanding their parking lots, overall the congestion situation has been greatly alleviated.
After Cao Shujie and Cao Shuchao arrived at the door of his house, Zuo Yongsi's driver drove him over.
When meeting Cao Shujie, Zuo Yongsi seemed particularly enthusiastic.
Along the way, Zuo Yongsi looked at the vehicles on the road and knew that Caojiazhuang had successfully opened the park again this time.
For him, the success of Caojiazhuang's tourism business is the guarantee for his progress, and all of this was created by Cao Shujie.
Regardless of whether Cheng admits it or not, he owes Cao Shujie a huge favor.
"Director Zuo, let's go sit at home for a while and then go to the scenic spot later." Cao Shujie invited Zuo Yongsi and Cao Shuchao to go home together.
His father, Cao Jianguo, set up a stall at the door, still selling bread, eight-treasure porridge and pure milk, but now they make all the bread themselves, and the cost ratio is no lower than buying from the county bakery, but now they can strictly control the quality.
It also ensures the freshness of the bread.
There is no change in the selling price, they are still sold for 5 yuan each.
Wang Yuelan still helps her son take care of the children and also takes care of her husband's physical condition.
As Cao Zhenghu gets older and his body functions further deteriorate, the family can see that Cao Zhenghu may not survive for a few more years, but Cao Shujie wants to let his grandfather live a few more years within his ability.
When she took Zuo Yongsi and Cao Shuchao in, Wang Yuelan was playing in the yard with her grandson Cao Yirui.
Seeing her son coming with guests, Wang Yuelan nodded and said hello and didn't ask any more questions.
Her daughter-in-law Cheng Xiaolin went out to shoot a video again.
Having completely given up on selling data cables, Cheng Xiaolin is now particularly attentive to running her own self-media account and updates her videos more frequently than before.
With the further development of the mobile Internet, Cheng Xiaolin now makes much more money from converting traffic through videos than before.
In addition, Cheng Xiaolin now also accepts some product advertisements. These advertisements are embedded in videos and the price is not low. The cost of one advertisement is about 300,000.
In actual terms, Cheng Xiaolin's current advertising commission income is higher than that of many first-line celebrities, and the investment cost of her videos is much lower than those of those celebrities.
However, this data has not been made public, and few people in the self-media circle know about it.
She is the one who makes a lot of money purely in silence.
And this is also a big reason why Cheng Xiaolin doesn't pay attention to the profits from selling data cables now. She has the confidence.
Entering the house, Zuo Yongsi saw Cao Shujie's grandfather, Cao Zhenghu, sitting in the living room listening to the radio.
He took the initiative to say hello to Cao Zhenghu.
"Grandpa, this is my guest, Director Zuo of the County Culture and Tourism Bureau." Cao Shujie introduced to his grandfather.
Cao Zhenghu nodded and motioned for Zuo Yongsi to sit down.
He actually didn't care about Zuo Yongsi's identity. Even if Xiang Yuheng and Wang Qinghui were waiting for someone to come over, Cao Zhenghu wouldn't have much reaction.
At this stage, he has lost sight of everything, even life and death. Perhaps what Cao Zhenghu can't let go of are his grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
After making tea, Cao Shujie introduced Zuo Yongsi to the situation after the park and orchard opened. Zuo Yongsi seemed even more attentive, especially when he heard Cao Shujie introduce the flow of people on the roller coaster and the renovated barren mountain.
Cao Shujie and the Caojiazhuang Village Committee, under the joint witness of the County Culture and Tourism Bureau and the Municipal Culture and Tourism Bureau, invested more than 200 million yuan to transform this barren mountain. Regardless of the income, they can attract more tourists.
, this is what Zuo Yongsi values more.
Hearing Cao Shujie talk about the beautiful scenery after the transformation of the barren mountain, Zuo Yongsi felt very itchy in his heart. He really wanted to go there and have a look now.
When Cao Shuchao saw that Cao Shujie and Zuo Yongsi had something to talk about, he left first and led people from the security brigade to patrol and inspect the whole village.
Before Cao Shujie and Zuo Yongsi sat down and drank a pot of tea, they took the curious Zuo Yongsi around the park and orchard.
After walking around the two sides, it was already past the lunch time, so Cao Shujie took Zuo Yongsi to the Xinjiang Hotel for dinner and a few drinks at noon.
At this time, Zuo Yongsi was still thinking about the people lining up in front of the roller coaster. He really didn't expect that a roller coaster would attract so many tourists.
While feeling emotional, Zuo Yongsi also had to admit that Cao Shujie's 19.8 million roller coaster investment was indeed worth the price of admission.
Zuo Yongsi did not dare to say that Cao Shujie would be able to make back his money in one year, but based on the density of people in the park, he believed that the time it would take to make his money back would not be too long.
When Zuo Yongsi got in the car and left, he felt that he had gained a lot.
He was still thinking about how to write a report when he returned and report the situation here to Director Pan.
Cao Shujie didn't go to see the situation in the park or orchard anymore. After getting a general idea, Cao Shujie already knew about these two areas.
He was still thinking about the topic of conversation with Cao Shuchao this morning.
Cao Shuchao did not know that Cao Shujie had invested a large amount of money to build this laboratory and invested a lot of money to purchase high-precision scientific research equipment.
Individual research and research driven by the state are not the same thing at all, and the funds consumed are huge for ordinary people.
Cao Shujie told Cao Shuchao that building this laboratory was a gold-eating beast, which was not an exaggeration at all.
Since the last bull market, Cao Shujie has made 400 million yuan from the stock market.
Only a small part of these funds are used for daily expenses of their family, and most of the funds are continued to be invested in various projects.
For example, the infrastructure construction of Caojiazhuang Children's Theme Park cost more than 30 million yuan, plus the roller coaster cost 19.8 million yuan, which adds up to more than 50 million yuan. Cao Shujie paid for it all by himself, and there was no need for a second person to contribute.
For example, the investment company established for the Barren Mountain Renovation Project raised a total of 200 million yuan.
Among them, Xuerui Investment, founded by Cao Shujie, invested more than 100 million yuan in the barren mountain reconstruction project, accounting for 70% of the shares.
This 100 million yuan was also cash that Cao Shujie took out. He did not play word games and make false investments like others. He was pursuing his career seriously.
In a sense, 70% of the stall rental income attached to the barren mountain renovation project belongs to him.
The investment in these two areas has exceeded 500 million yuan.
In addition, he spent more than 40 million yuan to purchase land in the town and build a modern cow breeding farm, which is already an investment of about 200 million yuan.
These investments suddenly wiped out half of Cao Shujie's original capital.
The remaining 200 million funds were all invested by Cao Shujie in the construction of the laboratory and the purchase of equipment.
All recent household expenses have been paid for by his wife.
But the problem is that investing a large amount of money is just the beginning, and it is far from the time when you can see the benefits.
Cao Shujie has not touched the company's profits in the past few years. He has always kept the money in the company's account, but this time Cao Shujie considered the critical moment and he still had to use the money.
The initial investment of 200 million in building this laboratory does not mean that it is finished and there will be no need to invest other funds in the future. On the contrary, this is just the beginning. With the establishment of research projects and the purchase of more sophisticated experimental equipment
, the amount of funds required in the future will be greater.
It is very likely that a piece of high-precision experimental equipment will cost over 100 million yuan.
Another point is that research does not mean that if you spend money to buy equipment and find people, you will definitely get results.
Even though Cao Shujie's research on nutrient solutions has now reached a very mature second-generation product, Cao Shujie still has to spend a lot of money on experiments for subsequent research.
No one can succeed casually, and this is no joke.
Cao Shujie is now mentally prepared to face the more severe challenges ahead.
If one day he needs a lot of funds for research, Cao Shujie has thought of a way for himself. He doesn't mind selling off the Bitcoins in his hands one after another.
For Cao Shujie, money is money only if he can get it in his hands. The so-called high price really has nothing to do with him.
Who knows whether Bitcoin can rise to its original high price again in this life?
It's just that Cao Shujie is a little regretful that there is no national-level funding subsidy for his research.
Otherwise, like the research institute where he used to work, he could receive a large amount of subsidies and special research expenses from the state every year, so that he would not have to contribute money himself.
Sometimes Cao Shujie also considers that if the funding gap is too large in the later period, he would not mind introducing other funds.
But judging from the current situation, there will be no such worries at least in one or two years.
For the time being, Xuemeng Food Factory's money-making speed can fully meet the expenses of this laboratory.
"If I release the risk of the research laboratory, I guess a lot of venture capital will come to invest in this project, right?" Cao Shujie thought to himself.
At present, only a small circle of people know about this matter, but those people don't know exactly what project Cao Shujie wants to pursue.
"Shujie, come and help me see what's wrong with this video?" Cheng Xiaolin asked her husband to help.
Cao Shujie responded and came upstairs to watch the video taken by his wife.
This is a project imitating the landscape renovation project of Hemu Kanas Mongolian Township. The scenery in the video is eye-catching. This is the video after his wife edited it. In it, all the scenic spots in different places are gathered together in a short
displayed within a period of time.
Cao Shujie's eyes lit up when he saw this highly promotional video.
I have to say that his wife understands his thoughts best.
After watching it, Cao Shujie also discovered a problem. There was a clear sense of separation between some of the content in this video and the overall video concept.
This feeling makes people seem particularly uncomfortable.
Cao Shujie read it from beginning to end twice more and pointed to a part of the content for his wife to point out.
Hearing what he said, Cheng Xiaolin immediately realized what was wrong.
After making the changes, Cheng Xiaolin patted her husband on the back and said, "Honey, it has to be you."
"Hey, it's just a small problem, how about it? Is there anything else?" Cao Shujie asked her.
When he saw his wife shaking her head, Cao Shujie went back to his own business.
…
On March 15th, after the children's theme park and Mengmeng Orchard officially opened, except for the first day when the number of people came was full, there were not many people who came during the next two working days, but on Saturday and weekend, there were not many people who came.
There were so many that surprised Cao Shujie.
Obviously, two large parking lots have been expanded in Taodong Village and Zhujiazhuang, but the parking lots were still full of cars in a short period of time.
Zhuang Xuejian and Zhu Hongwei were very happy when they saw this result.
They know very well that the parking income alone is a considerable amount of wealth for their savings.
In addition, these people who park in their villages will more or less buy some rural gadgets in their villages and take them back.
This can also be considered as a way to generate income for the villagers.
But the two of them also knew that these incomes were really just scraps, which were incomparable to the overall income of the people in Caojiazhuang.
There is no way to compare with ordinary people who have obtained 60 quotas for operating stalls.
The 60 people who got the right to rent and operate stalls at the foot of Caojiazhuang Mountain shared their harvest with the people in the village. The most direct consequence was that they came to the Caojiazhuang Village Committee to ask if the remaining 140 stalls could be rented as soon as possible.
More and more people are renting out completed buildings.
They have realized that these stalls will definitely make money, but it is just a matter of making more or less, but they did not expect that they would be so profitable.
It's really off the mark.
This also made the more than 300 families who were eliminated after the lottery very unwilling. They wanted to encourage Caojiazhuang to speed up the construction and rent out the remaining 140 stalls as soon as possible.
Some people swore that this time they would fight for a stall no matter what.
On the other hand, the villagers in the two villages really envy the villagers in Caojiazhuang.
The income difference between the two parties is quite large.
Under the premise that ordinary people in the three villages all participate in agricultural planting cooperatives and planting and breeding cooperatives, the biggest difference is the income from Caojiazhuang villagers who can set up stalls around the two scenic spots of parks and orchards.
It would be a lie to say that I don’t envy the villagers of Caojiazhuang.
But they know very well that there is no use in envy. The village party secretary in their village is not as powerful as the village party secretary in Caojiazhuang.
Moreover, the village party secretary in Caojiazhuang is too young, only in his 30s. There is no problem in working for another 30 years.
They really couldn't imagine how far Caojiazhuang would develop under the leadership of such a capable village party secretary.
Once they considered this issue, the villagers of Zhujiazhuang and Taodong Village became more interested in merging their two villages into Caojiazhuang.
And there were really courageous villagers who took a few people to their village cadres to ask about this matter, mainly asking whether there was a possibility of merging together.
Even though Zhuang Xuejian and Zhu Hongwei usually talk about this matter.
But they felt bad when they heard the villagers mentioning the old story again and again.
I'm still thinking, how can any villagers in their village make trouble like this?
