Difficulties
The rough rooms of the hotel have been built, exactly as designed. The only difference from the plan was that the cost of the entire building was much larger than budgeted. The original plan was to spend one-third of the total budget for infrastructure projects, that is, about one million; Two million are used for decoration and various configurations, and the rest of the money is used as the hotel's upfront working capital. But judging from the current situation, a mere 4 million can't get the deal done, because the rough house alone has already cost nearly 2 million, so if you extrapolate it, the cost may be even greater.
As soon as the rough house was completed, I didn't immediately renovate it, but was anxious to think about the money. It is estimated that there will always be a day when the renovation will be stopped due to lack of money.
The first thing that came to my mind was borrowing.
But at the moment, borrowing money is not easy, there is no object at all. Brother Monkey is the same as me, everything is still developing, although it is nearing the end, but the problem of lack of money also exists, we have communicated many times about this before, and he is ready to borrow from me, and then I heard that a house is being built, so I didn't speak again. Although Senior Brother Sha's side is progressing relatively smoothly, it is only hovering on the edge of Baoben'er, because there are a few more newly opened shipyards in Liusha Town recently, and the competition is very fierce, and sometimes you can't even get a single hair without a special relationship. Needless to say, Master knows that there is no "oil and water" when you think about it, but he walks very steadily, and there has never been a shortage of money; I guess I was short of money and scared before, so now I am tied to things.
Brother Monkey's progress is the slowest among us, it has been three years, except for the Water Curtain Cave Tourist Attraction that is now open to the public, other projects are still in the nest. I thought that Brother Monkey could have been faster, but Brother Monkey was an impatient, he did whatever he wanted, he did what he wanted, and he didn't think about it well in advance, so he delayed a lot of effort and spent a lot of money; At least half of the things he has at hand are "reworked", all of them a second time.
Sister Qing said that it is not a way to wait like this, it is better to raise money while starting work, so as not to delay the best date for opening when the money is enough.
Let me explain what Sister Qing means, why it is called delaying the best date for opening.
The secondary highway has already started construction, and is moving from the two ends of Gao Laozhuang to the middle, according to the prediction of the relevant departments, it will only take about two to three months to close, and Gao Laozhuang will become a transit station with developed transportation. According to the statements of the relevant departments, on the day the highway closes, there will be several relatively large markets opening at the same time; Such as vegetable and meat markets, fruit markets, grain wholesale markets, etc. If our hotel can catch up with that day, the popularity will definitely follow. In other words, our hotel must be completed and opened within two to three months.
This would not have been a problem, the problem was that there was not enough money.
There is another reason why Sister Qing said that, in order to allow larger tonnage ships to dock directly at Gao Laozhuang, the Gao Lao Zhuang Wharf Foundation decided to borrow money to hire sand dredging boats to widen and dig the river deeper; The most suitable season to widen the river is undoubtedly during the dry season, which is the current winter. According to the time projection, the plan to widen the river will also be completed before the beginning of spring next year, which is the tidal season. In this way, if the hotel can be completed in two to three months, it is equivalent to two high-intensity advertisements at the same time, and it also saves advertising costs.
So in the end, I still adopted Sister Qing's suggestion and quickly summoned workers to carry out the later construction of the hotel. The exterior of the hotel is renovated first, and then the interior of the hotel is renovated from the first floor until it is "exhausted".
According to the workers in charge of decoration, it is estimated that more than one million yuan will be needed to renovate according to the predetermined specifications, which means that the remaining money is enough if it is only for decoration. The renovation went smoothly, as quickly as a normal person got dressed, and the whole hotel was given a new look.
As predicted by the person in charge of the renovation, our money has just been used to complete the exterior and interior decoration of the hotel, including some water and electricity infrastructure.
During this period, I have run a lot of people's homes, including Li Tianwang, Rulai, clairvoyant, dragon king and so on. But three million is not a small amount, and it is estimated that no one will dare to agree easily. So I only got more than 600,000 before and after. Li Tianwang 200,000, Rulai 100,000, Clairvoyant 100,000, Dragon King 200,000; I don't know how Guanyin also knew about this, and sent back the 30,000 yuan that I had quietly left her before, nominally to lend it to me, but in fact, we tacitly knew it, but I was afraid that my sister would misunderstand.
It seems that things can't go on anymore, and almost all the people who hope to help us have run all over the place, and they either can't pull it off, or they don't have much savings; The person who bought my old pig account is more or less meaningful, and takes a hundred and eighty thousand out; People who don't buy old pig accounts are like seeing strangers, and they send me away in two sentences, one is "what are you doing", and the other is "not for the time being". I didn't know these situations before, when I was learning from the experience, I was eating hundreds of meals, and I couldn't experience such a naked human affection at all, either to give or not to give, very simple two sentences, not like today.
When I was in a dilemma and had no way out, I thought of the board of directors of the oilfield.
