"Let's go, deputy village chief." Li Fan extended his palm in a gesture of invitation.
"Don't call me deputy village chief. Just call me Xiaolan like Sister Liu. I'm sorry to bother you two."
It wasn't too late anyway, the afternoon sunshine was just right, and the village was very quiet now. The two of them slowed down their pace in tacit understanding, and walked slowly towards Li Fan's house.
"Li Fan, have you used up all the land you packed?"
I was so happy just now that I didn't ask anything. Although Beishantou is not a big mountain, it is not a small place for planting.
"I want to open a soybean product factory in the village."
There is nothing to hide about this matter. After all, everyone will know about it after the factory opens.
Zhao Qianlan said in disbelief: "Opening a factory in the mountains?"
"No." Li Fan smiled and shook his head: "The factory should be opened at the foot of the mountain, and beans should be grown up the mountain. In this way, we can also supply raw materials ourselves."
"Look at me, I'm confused for a moment. You just said you wanted to plant beans."
Zhao Qianlan knew that Li Fan's idea was a good one. She also supplies the raw materials for her own factory, which would save a lot of money. This is a truth that everyone can think of.
However, there are still so many manufacturers who choose to purchase raw materials, because being self-sufficient in raw materials sounds like a good idea, but it is difficult to achieve. Not to mention the technical and cycle issues, the large initial capital investment alone is enough.
It’s not easy to solve, not to mention that Li Fan has just started. Does his tofu have sales?
She couldn't help but worry. Don't pay the balance after leasing the land because she couldn't get around the funds. How could she explain this to the villagers?
"Does this require a large capital investment in the early stage?"
"Don't worry, I have the money to rent the land. The beans are just in harvest season. I will collect the beans from the villagers. The dealers of the tofu factory have also stabilized and the demand is huge."
The reason why Li Fan told her this was that he hoped that she could relax and lobby everyone for her, so that she would not feel confident herself.
"Then you are too awesome!"
Zhao Qianlan looked full of admiration. Although there was no business in her family, her family had been dealing with various business people since she was a child. She knew that business was difficult to do.
This was the first time she had seen such people who could get a large number of stable orders even before the factory was opened, which she couldn't help but admire.
Although she had long heard about Li Fan's superb medical skills, she did not expect that he was also good at business. Zhao Qianlan had a hunch that this Li Fan would give her more surprises in the future.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but start to look forward to it.
"Li Fan, can I discuss something with you?"
Looking at Zhao Qianlan's glowing eyes, Li Fan couldn't help but wonder, could it be that the deputy village chief also wanted to invest in the company and get a piece of the pie.
This is a bit difficult to handle. In the beginning, the factory will not be very large, so he has not thought about cooperating with anyone else except Qian Duoer.
But if Zhao Qianlan proposed it directly, he would not refuse immediately. After all, he still had others to ask for.
"What?"
"When the beans are harvested, will it require a lot of labor? Although Beishantou is good, we cannot implement large-scale machines here, and your factory will definitely need employees after it opens. In this way, can you give priority to our village?
It can also provide a lot of employment opportunities for the people in the village..."
The more Zhao Qianlan talked, the more excited she became. Her eyes were shining. Li Fan gradually looked at her differently. At first, when he didn't see anyone and only listened to the village chief's words, he thought it was some rich girl from some family who came here to do gilding.
, were all ready to accept each other's princess temperament; when they first met, he found that the other party was not arrogant and domineering, so he didn't take it to heart, thinking that she was just a well-educated young lady; until this moment, Li Fan really started to look at her seriously.
other side.
He could tell from the earnest and longing eyes of the other party that the other party really wanted to do something for the people in this poor and remote village.
Li Fan did not answer her question directly, but instead asked: "With your family's conditions, how could you come to this poor place?"
"Ah?" The topic suddenly changed, and Zhao Qianlan didn't react for a while.
"I came here mainly for two purposes." Zhao Qianlan and Li Fan just chatted and felt that the other person was a good person. In addition, she didn't have many friends here, so she had been holding back her words for a long time. Now that Li Fan asked, she thought
I didn't even think about hiding it.
"I am the third generation of officials in my family, including my cousins and descendants. Everyone in our family works within the system. The family is very traditional. I am the only exception. I studied abroad after finishing college."
"After I came back, my parents arranged all my future options, including the person I wanted to spend my life with. I was not interested in any of this at all. I hope I can make a career while I'm young and realize my own value."
"To be honest, I came here because I was exiled by my parents. I promised them that if I don't get any results within two years, I must go home and accept their arrangements."
"Of course, what I do for the village is not just because of the bet I made with my parents. The people here are very nice and the green mountains and green waters should not be buried like this."
Li Fan can understand the enthusiasm of people who have just entered society. If they have such a good family, they would not want to give it a try for their ideals.
But most ordinary people don't have this opportunity, because ordinary people don't dare and don't have the confidence to try and make mistakes.
But the little girl has a good heart and really wants to make her hometown a better place.
"I promise you."
"Huh?" Zhao Qianlan opened her eyes wide, with confusion on her face.
"I said I promise you that if we need employees, we will consider people from this village as soon as possible."
"Really? Li Fan, thank you!"
Zhao Qianlan was very excited and threw herself into Li Fan's arms with a bear hug.
A uniquely feminine fragrance hit his face, and before Li Fan could react, his arms were filled with a warm and soft body.
About half a minute later, when the excitement faded, Zhao Qianlan realized what she had done, and she immediately withdrew from Li Fan's arms in embarrassment.
Embarrassingly, he rubbed the hem of his clothes with his fingers, his face flushed with embarrassment: "Sorry, I'm too excited."
After all, it was their first meeting, and Li Fan was a little embarrassed, but seeing Zhao Qianlan like this, the embarrassment dissipated.
"Hahaha, it's okay."
"You have to work hard in the village. I believe in you. Come on!"
It was originally Li Fan's words to relieve the embarrassment, but it immediately warmed Zhao Qianlan's heart. Since she came to Mayu Village, no one has believed in her. Needless to say, her parents, even her uncle who is the best to her, has advised her not to come.
.
Not to mention my friends, every time I call them to complain, they just try to persuade me to come back early.
I didn't expect that this sentence, "I believe you," came from a man whom I met for the first time.
