Chapter 404: A Business That Makes Money Quickly
"It's nothing. It's been a while since I came back, and we haven't gotten together yet, so I called you to come over."

Of course Li Jiayi didn't believe this, but seeing that he didn't want to say it, probably because there were so many people around, so he didn't ask any more questions.

Let’s ask again later in private!
"Jiayi! When your eldest brother and second brother left, didn't they tell you when they would be back?" the eldest sister-in-law suddenly asked.

"No! I thought they would only be gone for a month or two at most, but I didn't expect they haven't come back yet. But you don't have to worry, sister-in-law. It's probably because of equipment problems that delayed them."

To be honest, that's all. For example, poaching people is easy. As long as you pay a lot of money, people will follow you.

But the equipment is different! You know, many countries are unwilling to sell equipment to China at this time.

Imposing technological blockade on the country.

"Jia Yi! Come on, let's go over there and talk." Just a few minutes after they sat down, his brother-in-law pulled him and said.

"Fine!"

Because it was cold, the two did not go outside and stayed in a smoking room inside the villa.

Yes, both my father-in-law and my eldest and second uncles smoke. There is even a special smoking room in the villa.

After arriving at the smoking room, the brother-in-law quickly took out a pack of Zhonghua cigarettes and handed one to Li Jiayi.

As soon as he put it in his mouth, his brother-in-law quickly took out a lighter and lit it.

"Thank you."

“You’re welcome.” He then lit one for himself.

The brother-in-law was using a kerosene lighter, which, needless to say, was an imported item. Li Jiayi recognized it at a glance.

Because he has a lot of these lighters in his space, especially the brand he uses.

Similarly, Li Jiayi was not short of lighters, but he rarely took out this kind of lighter to use before.

But after the reform and opening up, he no longer has such concerns. Now he also uses this kind of lighter, but not this brand.

The one he used was better, but of course it was also very expensive. Even now, it costs several thousand dollars.

"Brother-in-law, is there something wrong with you?" Li Jiayi asked after taking a puff of his cigarette.

"It's true."

"Just tell me what's going on. We don't need to be so polite."

Both my brother-in-law and my two elder brothers-in-law were nice people. For example, when dividing my father-in-law’s property, no one fought for it.

It can be said that it was a completely peaceful distribution.

You know, sometimes brothers fight over the division of the family property and end up with bloodshed! What's more, a big capitalist like my father-in-law.

"I just want to ask you, I have already acquired a lot of land, and it is becoming increasingly difficult to acquire land. Should I still acquire land?"

"Brother-in-law, is the land you took just around the Forty-Nine City?"

"Yes! They are all close to the city. If they are far away, they belong to the suburbs. What do you want to do with them?"

Hearing his brother-in-law say this, Li Jiayi shook his head speechlessly and said, "Brother-in-law, no matter where it is, I'll tell you the range! To the west, all the way to Babaoshan, to the north, all the way to Qinghe, to the east, all the way to Gaobeidian, you can take the land!"

"Why can't we go west, north and east? Can't we take land south?"

"You don't need to take anything south, just go in these three directions and take as much as you can."

Anyway, there is no time limit for acquiring land now, which is different from later generations. In later generations, acquired land must be developed within one year.

There is no such thing at that time. Once you acquire the land, you can develop it whenever you want, and no one will care about you.

Besides, if I take too much and cannot develop it all myself, I can sell it to others later.

Let’s put it this way, from now on land will be money, and lots and lots of money.

The most important thing is that land is cheap now! Let’s put it this way! Buying a hundred acres of land, or even a thousand acres of land now, may not necessarily be as expensive as buying one acre of land in the future.

“Is it really useful to take land that far away?”

"Brother-in-law, don't worry! It will definitely work. What's the matter? Is the company short of funds?"

"How is that possible? Land is so cheap nowadays. Even if we buy several times more land, we still won't be able to use it all up!"

"That's good. If you're short of money, you can come to me."

"Row."

After the two chatted for a while, they smoked for a while and then came out of the smoking room.

At this time, Lin Linger also came here and was chatting with her sister-in-law and others in the living room.

"I knew you two were going to smoke. Come over and eat some watermelon," said the eldest sister-in-law.

"it is good."

"You came earlier than me." Lin Ling'er smiled at Li Jiayi and said.

"I don't have anything to do, so I just came here." Li Jiayi shrugged.

"Brother-in-law! I'm not saying anything bad to you, but you should just be a hands-off manager and let Ling'er help you manage the business."

"Sister, he is busier than me. I just help him manage the restaurant. He has a lot of things to deal with every day."

Of course Lin Linger has to speak for Li Jiayi! Don't say that Li Jiayi sometimes really has to deal with things, even if she doesn't, she will say so.

"You have long hair but little knowledge. Who is your brother-in-law? How could he have nothing to do?" the brother-in-law said to Lin Sisi.

"Yes, sister, my brother-in-law has such a big business, how could he have nothing to do?"

"Hey, I'm just helping my little sister, okay? Why are you doing this to me? Okay, I won't say anything, okay?"

"Because what you said is wrong!" said the second sister-in-law.

"Okay! Except for me, I shouldn't talk." Sister Lin Sisi said speechlessly.

"That's right. Okay, let's stop talking. Let's eat the watermelon quickly and then go cook."

"Ok!"

There were six of us, and we only ate half of the watermelon. There was nothing we could do because the watermelon was too big. But it worked out this way, as we could still continue eating after dinner.

The eldest sister-in-law, the second sister-in-law, and Lin Ling'er and her sister went to the kitchen together.

The brother-in-law poured Li Jiayi a cup of tea and said, "Come, have some tea."

"No need, brother-in-law. I ate so much watermelon that I can't drink anything now." Li Jiayi rubbed the reader's (belly) and said.

"Hahaha, then drink it later."

"Ok!"

"By the way, Jiayi, the two factories of my eldest and second brothers have been built. You can go and have a look when you have time."

"Okay, I'll go take a look when I have time."

It has been several months and it should be almost completed. After all, when construction started, several engineering teams worked together.

"You haven't seen it! Especially the Yuquan Mountain area, it's so beautifully built. If you say it's a factory, you might think it's a park if you don't know!"

Yuquanshan is a beverage factory that mainly deals in mineral water, with black tea and green tea being secondary products.

So before it was built, Li Jiayi decided to focus on greening the area, since not many factory buildings were needed.

Of course, the main reason is that the area is large enough, otherwise it would not be possible to build like this!

"The place is big anyway, so we can build it however we want."

"That's true."

"Add one! Is there any business that can make money quickly? You see, I don't have anything to do every day."

"Brother-in-law, just run the real estate company well and don't think about anything else. Let me put it this way, real estate will be the most profitable project in the next 30 to 40 years."

"Uh! All right!"

In fact, what Li Jiayi said is correct. If we grow bigger and stronger now, it will indeed be the most profitable in the future.

The reason why many real estate companies in later generations did not make money or even went bankrupt was because they had no money. If you don’t have money, you either have to raise funds or borrow money from the bank. You must know that these all require interest.

If you have money in your hands and don’t need any loans or financing, how can you not make money?

As for whether Li Jiayi has any way to make money now, or a way to make money quickly, of course he does!
It’s just that it’s still a bit early for now, so as to what it is, of course it’s fast food!

Of course, he would not introduce McDonald's or KFC. If he wanted to do something, he would create his own brand, like Wallace in later generations.

When Li Jiayi was in school in his previous life, he worked at Wallace during the summer vacation, and he worked there for several summer vacations. It can be said that he is very familiar with Wallace.

It would be easy to do if he really wanted to, but he would not give it to his brother-in-law because he already has a piece of real estate.

But isn’t it a little too early now? You know, the first KFC to enter China was in 1987!
McDonald's came later, with its first store entering China in 1990, and that was not in the capital, but in Guangzhou.

It’s a little early, but we can prepare in advance, and it would be best to occupy the national market before these two foreign fast foods come in.

In this case, perhaps these two foreign fast food restaurants will not be able to enter.

After chatting for a while, my brother-in-law looked at his watch, stood up and said, "Jiayi, you stay here first. I'll go get the child."

"Okay, brother-in-law, go ahead! Do you want me to drive with you?"

"No, it's not far, it'll only take a few minutes to walk, it's not worth driving."

"OK then."

After a while, my brother-in-law brought the little guy back.

The boy saw Li Jiayi as soon as he entered the room, and quickly ran over and shouted, "Uncle-in-law."

"Hey, come on, let me see."

However, before the boy ran to Li Jiayi, he was attracted by the watermelon on the coffee table.

"Do you want to eat?" Li Jiayi asked.

"Yeah!" The little guy nodded quickly.

"Come, I'll cut it for you."

When we had dinner together in the evening, I knew without a doubt that the chef was Lin Linger, because only she could make this taste.

After dinner, the two men drove away in a car each.

After they left, the eldest sister-in-law smiled and said, "My younger sister is so lucky! She drives to and from get off work every day."

"That's right, it's because my brother-in-law is so capable!"

"It's a pity that private individuals are not allowed to buy cars now, otherwise I would buy one too." said the brother-in-law at this time.

"Come on! It's because you are incompetent. How could your brother-in-law and younger sister allow it?" said sister Lin Sisi.

"Uh!"

"Okay, saying this will hurt our relationship! My brother-in-law is different from my younger sister. You know, my brother-in-law was a factory leader before. How can we compare them?"

"That's right. Besides, it's not like we can't afford it. It's just that we're not allowed to buy it now. We can wait for two years."

When Li Jiayi and Lin Ling'er returned home, their parents had already finished their meal and were watching TV in the living room.

"I'm home?"

"Well! Mom and Dad, have you eaten?" Lin Ling'er asked.

"Ate."

"It's fine after you eat it."

"Are your sister-in-law and the others okay?" asked my mother.

"pretty good."

"That's good. By the way, let's have them come to our house for dinner on Sunday."

"Okay, Mom. I'll tell them later."

"Ok!"

The family watched TV for a while and then went back to the house to rest.

The next morning, Li Jiayi drove to Yuquan Mountain alone.

Sure enough, as soon as I arrived here, I saw a large area of ​​land surrounded by a wall, and there were some scattered factories inside.

However, green areas have been built in most places, and the factory buildings occupy less than one-tenth of the land.

When Li Jiayi arrived at the gate, there was already someone guarding the gate. Needless to say, this was probably arranged by his brother-in-law.

That’s right, my elder and second uncles are not in the capital, and only my brother-in-law can arrange people.

Li Jiayi did not go in. He guessed that even if he wanted to, the gatekeepers would not let him in because they didn't know him.

However, there are still workers working in the factory, probably doing some finishing work.

After looking at the gate for a while, Li Jiayi drove away. Yes, he did not go to Xihongmen.

There's no point in going there. It's better to wait for my elder and second uncles to come back and then go see it together.

So, after Li Jiayi drove back to the city, he went straight to the factory where the fat man worked.

Li Jiayi drove directly to the guard room and said to the guard, "Please call Guo Detie for me."

After saying that, he took out a pack of cigarettes and handed it over. He thought that since someone gave him face, he couldn't just throw it away.

"Please wait a moment. I'll call right away."

"Thank you!"

"You're welcome."

While the security guard was making a phone call, Li Jiayi backed up the jeep and parked it on the side of the road.

In less than ten minutes, the fat man came out on a bicycle, locked the bicycle next to the guard room, and walked towards the jeep.

"Boss, what do you want to talk to me about?" the fat man asked, leaning against the car window.

"Go ask for leave! I have something to talk to you about."

"Okay, I'll go ask for leave right away." Then he ran back.

Watching the fat man riding his bicycle back to the factory, Li Jiayi said to himself, "I guess it won't be a leave of absence soon."

Yes, Li Jiayi came to see Fatty, but it was something very important. There were many possibilities that Fatty would also do the same as him and apply for unpaid leave.

Not only the fat guy, but all his brothers are the same. It's a good thing this way, as it gives the brothers something to do.

In less than twenty minutes, the fat man came out, locked his bicycle next to the guard room, and then ran out to get on the bike.

Li Jiayi didn't say anything. He started the car and drove towards Anxin Transport Company.

I arrived a little early and there was no one in Liu Jianshe's office. It's not that Liu Jianshe didn't come, but that he went to ride his tricycle.

"This kid is great! He doesn't come to work at this time." The fat man started yelling when he didn't see Liu Jianshe.

"How do you know he didn't come?" Li Jiayi asked speechlessly.

"You don't need to know that. I went to his office at this hour and didn't see anyone there."

"I arranged for him to ride a tricycle."

"Ah! So that's how it is!" The fat man scratched his head.

"Okay, sit down!"

"Boss, please sit down. I'll go make some tea." The fat man said quickly.

"All right!"

Soon the fat man made a pot of tea and poured a cup for Li Jiayi first.
