Chapter 33: Night Talk (1)
By the time Chen Chunhua and her family talked, it was already more than 9 o'clock in the evening. Chen Chunhua summed it up in her heart, the investment in buying land and building a house is not a small amount, and the total amount of money earned in the store is only more than 600 yuan, and a deposit of 400 yuan will be invested in it tomorrow, and it is impossible to explain it without explaining to Li Liang's parents. Moreover, there are many places to spend money in the future, and where to raise the funds still needs to be discussed by the two families. Li Liang was originally going to live with Chenchen and them at Chen's house, but Chen Chunhua wanted to hear Li Liang's ideas at night, so Li Liang had to sit on the back seat of Chen Chunhua's bicycle, and the two hurried to the county seat.
In fact, Li Liang already knew the cost of buying land at the dinner table, and he also knew that the current profit of the restaurant would not be too much money except for the deposit for buying land. To build such a large house, and it is impossible to pull free waste bricks and stones from the coal yard as before, the amount of money required is estimated to be several thousand. Where does this money come from, it must be a question that Chen Chunhua has to consider. I don't have money, but I can't do that big things.
Back in the county seat, Li Liang went home directly, while Chen Chunhua went back to put away the bicycle and brought over the account books that Wangke had operated during this time.
Li Liang pushed open the courtyard door, his mother Wang Xiulan was washing clothes next to the pressurized well, Wang Xiulan's habit in summer was to wash the clothes immediately after the family of four took a bath, and his father Li Shuangzhu was sitting in the living room with a pair of big pants and listening to Shan Tianfang's commentary on the radio. I didn't see my sister, so it seems that she hasn't come back yet.
Li Liang greeted his parents: "Mom and Dad, Aunt Xiulan will come to our house to discuss things with you later." Li Liang talked to his parents about this matter first. The reason why Wang Xiulan and her family invested 300 yuan to invest in Wangkelai was that they listened to Li Liang's analysis and were optimistic about the future of the restaurant. The two of them are very much in favor of expanding their business, after all, they are still working in the unit and have not spent much energy on the operation of the restaurant. It would be nice to keep the restaurant as it is, but they would be in favor of expanding it. But money is a big problem, and it would be nice to wait another year for the restaurant to accumulate next year's profits before expanding it.
While Li Liang's family was talking, Chen Chunhua and Zhang Qingxiang knocked on the door and came in. Wang Xiulan poured two cups of cold white water for the two, and the five people in the room sat down and began to communicate. First of all, Chen Chunhua took out her account book and counted the operating performance of the restaurant during this time, so far, including the remaining part of the original investment, she has more than 750 yuan in cash. Every day, the store needs to set aside about 100 yuan of activity funds to buy vegetables and change, so there is 650 yuan that can be used. If you want to expand now, you have to pay a deposit of 400 yuan tomorrow, so that only more than 250 yuan can be invested in advance in a short period of time, even if the restaurant can earn a net profit of 30 or 40 yuan every day, it is also stretched.
The four adults unified their minds and agreed to buy land and build a store, but the problem of money made the four of them look at me and I look at you, and they don't know what to do. Li Liang had an idea in his heart, but he was a little worried that a few adults would oppose it, so he was not in a hurry to bring it up. There is a way that the three stinkers are Zhuge Liang, and he is going to see the opinions of the adults first.
Everyone was silent for a while, and Li Shuangzhu said: "Our factory lacked funds to buy new equipment last year, I followed a few leaders in the factory to the county rural credit cooperative, and I am very familiar with their credit chief, or I will take a leave tomorrow to go to the rural credit cooperatives to ask, see if I can lend a sum of money!"
"I'm afraid this is a bit difficult! Now the state is engaged in construction everywhere, and the bank's funds are also very tight, and their loans depend on the nature of the enterprise, and they generally give loans to state-owned enterprises, and ordinary collective enterprises cannot get loans, not to mention that the business license of our restaurant has not yet been issued!" Zhang Qingxiang said, he has been running about the business license for a while, has learned some information, and knows that it is difficult to get loans.
In fact, how could Li Shuangzhu not know that it was difficult to get a loan? It's just that among his relatives and friends, he didn't work in a bank, and he only got acquainted with that section chief Chu when he ran for a loan with the factory leader last year, and the other party would not sell his face.
"Why don't we borrow some from relatives and friends?" said Wang Xiulan tentatively.
"Who is not short of money now? It is difficult to borrow money, even if a family comes up with thirty or fifty, it will not help!" Chen Chunhua's relatives are not rich, and it is difficult to borrow money, as she said that, she looked at Li Liang, "Liangzi, why don't you speak, help us think of a way!"
Since Li Liang came up with the idea of opening a restaurant, coupled with the results of the final exam and his usual more mature words and deeds, the adults of the two families gradually no longer regard Li Liang as a child, and they also pay more attention to his views when encountering things.
Chen Chunhua spoke, and Li Liang no longer hid it, and said: "Parents, uncles and aunts, I have an idea, I don't know if it is possible to implement it?"
Hearing Li Liang say that there was a way, the four of them straightened their ears.
"Actually, let's try to see if we can rent out or sell our shop first! Li Liang thought of the solution that is currently popular in Hong Kong City, "selling off-plan", which has the same meaning as the pre-sale of houses in the mainland real estate industry later. This method was first pioneered by Mr. Fok of Hong Kong City, and it gradually became popular all over the world after becoming an instant hit in the real estate industry of Hong Kong City.
"Liangzi, can this work?" none of the four adults had ever heard of this kind of sales method, and Chen Chunhua asked, "What's more, the villagers don't necessarily have much cash in their hands now, and even if they have cash, they don't necessarily dare to invest in it!"
"Auntie, I don't know how big one of our shops is going to be, is it as big as our current Wangkelai! According to the standard of Wangkelai, it should be enough to invest about 200 yuan in one room, right?" Li Liang asked.
"It's enough if you don't have desks, chairs and other things. Our shop uses free old bricks and stones, and the wood for the roof beams is taken from my father-in-law's house, and the money is mainly spent on linoleum cloth, asbestos tiles, tables and chairs, and kitchen utensils!
"We can build 20 rooms this time, 10 on each side of the road, and occupy the best street position first! This will require an investment of about 2,000 yuan, Uncle Qingxiang, I don't know if one month is enough?" Li Liang asked.
"Last time, it only took us 10 days to build this store, but if we build 20 stores this time, it will be enough to find more workers for one month. Chen Qingxiang said.
"So let's analyze which expenses need to be paid before the start of construction, and which expenses can be paid after the start of construction!" Li Liang said.
