Chapter 15 Nothing More, More Place

Su Hongyan teaches Chinese and her class is in the first period.

After class, I returned to the teaching and research office.

I didn’t feel like chatting with my colleagues, so I sent a WeChat message to Guo Youping.

"Hubby, tell me something."

"Don't tell me about school."

"It's not about school."

"what is that?"

"Jiang Ning drove 570."

"???"

"He bought it."

"Where did Jiang Ning get the money to buy 570?"

"It's true. I ran into Feng Yu on my way to work this morning. Jiang Ning drove her to work in a new 570. I thought he borrowed it from someone else, but he bought it himself. What do you think Jiang Ning is doing in Africa? How did he make so much money?"

"Why do you care so much about other people?"

"Curious!"

"Stop asking for gossip. You've got nothing better to do."

"Aren't you curious? I heard that the 570 landed at over million yuan. Jiang Ning must have spent more than million yuan to buy that car."

Guo Youping never replied, so of course he was curious!

Hundreds of thousands are not a small amount of money, let alone millions.

I thought my uncle's youngest son was working as a security guard in Africa to earn a salary, but now it seems that Jiang Ning did not tell the truth. If one can earn several million by working as a security guard for a few years, who would want to take the civil service exam? Everyone would go to be a security guard.

Anyone who can afford a car worth more than two million yuan must have a career.

Either they are rich or they have a lot of money. Otherwise, who would be willing to use such an expensive car without tens of millions of spare funds?

Guo Youping was distracted and didn't hear clearly what his subordinates said.

He was in a meeting, a work meeting on attracting investment.

Another year has passed, and the county is about to organize a summary meeting on investment promotion.

Bei'an is underdeveloped. There is not a single enterprise in the county that pays more than five million yuan in taxes, and there are only two relatively good enterprises that pay over one million yuan in taxes. Investment promotion is a top priority, and we try to find ways to do it every year, but never succeed.

The county holds a summary meeting every year to commend the advanced and encourage the lagging behind.

At the same time, we also need to set targets for the new year.

The indicators are broken down layer by layer. Not to mention the townships, even departments like the Meteorological Bureau that have nothing to do with investment promotion have tasks, and the townships are naturally not left out. Zhangqiao's investment promotion task last year was 20 million.

Not completed.

I managed to scrape together five million by doing this and that.

Moreover, most of them are just empty promises and cannot be implemented.

Signing an investment intention is equivalent to completing a task.

The county holds a summary meeting every year. Those who complete their tasks well will be given the Horse Award, and those who fail to complete their tasks will be given the Snail Award. Although there is no substantial harm, it is embarrassing. It is not suitable for units like the Meteorological Bureau.

The leader has no ambition to improve himself and receives the snail award every year.

Anyway, I'm used to it and can happily accept the award.

But I can't do that. After finally becoming the top leader, I was criticized by the leaders at the county summary meeting. I still have to go on stage and bring back a snail trophy. I can't throw it around when I get home. I have to put it on my desk to serve as a supervisor and warning. The inspection department will come down to check from time to time. Not to mention that I can't afford to lose face, the leaders will also be dissatisfied if I don't achieve results at work!
The purpose of today's meeting is to solve the problem.

No matter what method is used, the task must be completed.

The focus of attracting investment is on industrial parks. The parks will definitely be able to complete the task and exceed it. Many companies that fail to complete the task will get some money from the parks. As for whether they can get it, that depends on the relationships.

What we are discussing now is how to get some quota from the park.

Make up the missing 1500 million, otherwise you can only receive the snail award.

Guo Youping listened for a while, and then concluded after everyone had finished speaking: "The task must be completed. The township head should take the lead in this matter and communicate well with the park. We must eat and sing, and we must get the 1500 million yuan quota."

……

Jiang Ning wanted to go back and take a nap, but he couldn't fall asleep while lying in bed.

I played with my phone for a while, but it was really boring.

I wanted to play mahjong, but I made a few calls but couldn't find anyone to meet up with.

His two cousins contributed gas money to him every day and stopped playing with him.

It's so disloyal.

Jiang Ning was so bored that he suddenly felt that he should find something to do.

So I went downstairs and drove to the Industrial and Commercial Bureau.

I am planning to ask what policies are there regarding investment.

I went to the Industrial and Commercial Bureau and asked someone at random.

The person who received him was a woman in her thirties, who was a little confused by his question: "Attracting investment is not our responsibility."

Jiang Ning asked: "Who is responsible for that?"

The woman thought for a moment and said, "Go to the industrial park and ask. They are responsible for attracting investment."

Jiang Ning left the Industrial and Commercial Bureau and went to the industrial park.

The industrial park is outside the city, five kilometers away.

Follow the road to the train station all the way north, and walk another three kilometers after the train station. There is a large factory building and a park office building next to the highway interchange. The road is well built, but you can't see a single car for a long time.

Jiang Ning had just parked the car when two people came out of the park office building.

It’s an acquaintance, Zhang Xin’s husband Shen Liming.

There is a young man around.

Don't be fooled by her youth, she is actually older than him.

Jiang Ning got out of the car and greeted, "Director Shen."

Shen Liming was surprised. He came over to shake his hand and asked, "Whose car are you driving?"

Jiang Ning said: "My car."

Shen Liming was quite surprised and asked, "Are you here to do business in the park?" Jiang Ning nodded and said, "I've been bored lately and wanted to do something, so I went to the Industry and Commerce Bureau to ask about the investment policies. The people from the Bureau told me that investment is not their responsibility but the park's responsibility, so they asked me to come and ask."

Shen Liming was even more surprised: "You want to invest?"

Jiang Ning nodded.

Shen Liming asked: "What project do you plan to invest in?"

Jiang Ning said, "I want to buy a piece of land to build a farm. I wonder how much it costs to buy land now?"

Shen Liming asked: "How big do you plan to make it and how much do you plan to invest?"

Jiang Ning said: "Invest tens of millions, depending on the situation."

Shen Liming's eyes lit up, and he said to the young man beside him, "Xiao Wang, you go to the county alone. I won't go over for now."

The young man quickly agreed and left.

Shen Liming said: "Let's go to my office and talk."

Jiang Ning followed him to the office, and then he remembered that Shen Liming was the deputy director of the Investment Promotion Office.

Our job is to attract investment.

Go to the office and sit on the sofa.

Shen Liming made him a cup of tea, sat down beside him, and asked, "Why do you want to invest in agriculture? Have you considered anything else?"

Jiang Ning said: "I don't know much about other things, but I'm okay with agriculture."

Shen Liming asked: "What do you want to do specifically?"

Jiang Ning said: "I haven't thought about this yet. I plan to ask the county about its policies first and then see the situation."

Shen Liming said: "The county's policy on attracting investment is very good. In addition to tax concessions, the policy support for land use is also very strong. There are many people working in the photovoltaic industry now, and the county has also set targets. If you can invest tens of millions, the county's policy support is still very strong. I will fight for you whatever I can."

Jiang Ning said: "No, I don't understand that."

Shen Liming said: "It doesn't matter if you don't understand. The county will contact you for upstream and downstream support."

Jiang Ning was so confused that he just wanted to ask if he could buy a piece of land and build a big farm, grow fruits and vegetables, and raise some chickens, ducks, cows, sheep, etc., so that he could have a good work and life. Anyway, he had a cheat, so he wouldn't lose money no matter what he planted.

He was quite envious of the farms in the United States and wanted to build one in his hometown.

What is photovoltaics?

I don't understand at all why he has to work in photovoltaics!
Now that you are financially independent, who the hell would want to start a business?

Jiang Ning said, "I really don't do that. I'm just bored and want to find something to do. I want to invest 10 or 20 million to have fun. I don't think I can make much money."

"This……"

Shen Liming was also confused. Did he have too much money and had no place to spend it?
Investing 100 or 200 million not for making money, but just to have something to do while you're busy?

Is it one or two thousand or one or two hundred million?
Shen Liming asked: "Do you really want to invest 10 or 20 million to build a farm?"

Jiang Ning nodded: "300 or 400 million is fine!"

Shen Liming: "..."

Got hit again.

Forget it.

Don’t ask for now.

Shen Liming said: "We are not outsiders. I will tell you the truth. The return rate of investing in agriculture is very low now, especially in Bei'an, where the agricultural industry is extensive. It is difficult to make a profit. I still do not recommend you to invest in agriculture."

Jiang Ning said: "Tens of millions is not a big problem. It won't matter even if I lose money."

Shen Liming really wanted to ask, how much money do you have, but it's hard to ask, so he could only say: "Then let me tell you, the cost of investing in agriculture is also very high now. Let's talk about land rent first. The annual rent of agricultural land in Bei'an is 300-800 yuan. Land transfer is not a big problem. How much land do you want and what do you plan to plant?"

Jiang Ning asked: "Can't I buy the land?"

Shen Liming said: "Agricultural land can only be transferred, unless you want wasteland."

Jiang Ning asked: "Where is the wasteland, and how much is one acre?"

Shen Liming said: "You can have as much wasteland in the north as you want, and it's free."

Jiang Ning was surprised: "There is such a good thing, it really doesn't cost money?"

Shen Liming said, "I really don't want money. We lack everything here except land. The problem is that it's all wasteland, with no water, no electricity, and even no roads. What are you doing here? Even if I give you 100,000 acres of land, you can only look at it."

Jiang Ning asked: "Can it be given for free?"

Shen Liming said, "Give it to me, why not? Those lands won't generate any value if they are left there. If you can really invest 10 million to make those wastelands valuable, giving you a piece of land is nothing. However, in order to prevent people from occupying the toilet without doing anything, you have to pay a deposit of 100 yuan per mu of land. This money can be used to offset taxes in the future. The land is still given to you for free."

Jiang Ning became interested. Bei'an County is located in the southern part of the city. There is undeveloped wasteland for more than 70 kilometers from the county to the north. There are some villages in the east, but it is all wilderness in the west. If the land is really given away for free, it would be nice to set up a farm.

No water is not a problem, just dig a well.

The lack of roads is not a big problem, and it doesn’t cost much to build one.

A few million should be enough for a rural road of ten kilometers.

If it is a dirt road, just use a bulldozer to push it out.

It's troublesome when there is no electricity.

As for not being able to grow anything, that was not a problem for him.

Jiang Ning asked, "I want to acquire the land to build a farm. Will the county help me with the electricity problem?"

Shen Liming was surprised and asked, "You really want it?"

"want!"

Jiang Ning nodded: "Why not take it if it's free?"

Shen Liming said: "You have to think it over carefully, don't get carried away."

Jiang Ning said: "I'm not crazy, I really want it."

Shen Liming asked: "How are you going to develop it? You must have a plan, right?"

"This……"

Jiang Ning said: "I haven't thought about it yet, I'll think about it later."

Shen Liming said, "Then think about it first, don't make a decision on impulse. There is still a month before the Chinese New Year, so think about it carefully and wait until after the Chinese New Year. If you really want to do it, we can talk about it then!"

Jiang Ning thought it was right, so he followed his advice.

It's something that needs to be thought about carefully.
