Chapter 172: Cooperative Development of B&Bs (4/5)

That night, Lu Mingyi and the three of them chatted for several hours at Lu Yao's house, mainly to talk about the direction of the next development of the village.

Lu Yao pointed out that no matter how the tourism industry develops, it is inseparable from the three words "food, housing and transportation", among which "eating" and "living" are the most important, and they are also the two most profitable industries.

For example, in the past two days, because there are no homestays and hotels in Xiasha Village, and there are no restaurants to eat, many tourists have to run back to the town to eat, so many of them are reluctant to come to Xiasha Village in the afternoon.

In this way, a lot of tourists are lost invisibly, coupled with the inconvenience of transportation in Longze Town and Xiasha Village, if it were not for those tourists who insisted on seeing killer whales, it is estimated that they would be scared to give up halfway when they came to Xiasha Village for the first time.

Traffic is an external factor, and this time will have to be communicated more with the village head Lu Mingyi and the town.

First of all, the village must first solve the problem of food and housing, and housing is especially important in this.

Usually, those who live in B&Bs can eat in a borrowed place, but as for restaurants or fishing houses, they have to wait for Lu Yao to complete the design and decoration of the granary before they can provide a place to eat.

When Lu's father signed the contract with the village, Lu's father made it clear that he would specially design a restaurant and a convenience store, as well as a place to sell souvenirs and dried seafood.

At the same time, one-third of the area will be reserved as a warehouse to store all kinds of seafood caught by Lu Yao when he went out fishing.

In addition, Lu Yao had previously said to Lu Mingyi that he would buy the fish caught by the villagers at a price higher than the market purchase price.

The seafood is packed in this warehouse and shipped to two shops in the provincial capital, the East Bay International Seafood Trade Market.

"Ahem," Lu Yao cleared his throat and said with a straight face, "In the next few days, I will take Tai Chi out to sea to fish, so the number of tourists coming to the fishing village in the next few days should be greatly reduced, and we can renovate a number of homestays in these few days." ”

Lu Mingchang, the village accountant, asked worriedly: "Ah Yao, if it is really as you said, the villagers see that the number of tourists coming is less, I am afraid that no one will be willing to invest in the renovation of the homestay." ”

"I calculated the cost of the renovation, including the installation of bathing equipment, separate toilets, etc., at least 8,000 to 10,000 houses. If there is no one to live in, it will be a big loss. ”

Lu Mingyi also nodded again and again: "What Mingchang said makes sense, the villagers are relatively short-sighted and can't see the immediate benefits, even if you say something serious, you can't move them." ”

Lu Yao shrugged, he was very helpless about this, this is the sadness of people who have not received any education, they can't see long-term benefits, just like fishing with a desperate net, they will only be confused by the current interests and never think about the future.

"Anyway, I said here, everything else can be postponed, this homestay problem must not be delayed, this transformation will take a while, if I don't start the transformation while I go out to sea to fish, it will definitely be too late." ”

"Tourists may not care about it for a day or two, but they have not been able to arrange their accommodation, so many tourists from other places are not willing to come to us to play, and we will lose a lot at that time. ”

Hearing this, Lu Mingyi suddenly became anxious, "Then how can this be good?"

Lu Mingchang, Lu Mingbing and others also looked at Lu Yao anxiously, as a member of Xiasha Village and a village cadre, they naturally wanted to see the development and construction of the village better.

"Why don't we distribute the granary contracting fee so that everyone has the money to renovate?" Lu Mingchang suggested.

"No!"

Lu Mingyi and Lu Yao refused in unison, the contract cost of 500,000 yuan seems to be a lot, but in fact, it is only a few thousand yuan distributed to each household, which is far from enough to renovate the homestay.

Besides, even if it is distributed, can it guarantee that those villagers will use it to renovate the homestay?

Not to mention, the money can be used for other purposes, such as installing street lights, building toilets, buying garbage cans, etc.

Lu Mingchang actually said it so casually just now, of course he knew that his suggestion was very unreliable.

After pondering for a moment, Lu Yao raised his head and said, "If everyone really thinks that it is difficult to come up with this money, then it is better to adopt a cooperative development model." ”

Lu Mingyi asked curiously: "How to cooperate in development?"

Lu Yao said: "The renovation cost can be provided by me, and the income will be divided equally between the two sides, but I want two years of dividend rights, that is to say, within these two years, the right to use the renovated homestay belongs to me, and after two years, whether I make or lose, the house will be returned to the villagers." ”

Lu Mingchang's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he nodded and praised: "Ah Yao, your way is very good, but your time is too dead, if the villagers themselves invest a part, and the rest is not enough to borrow from you, you still have two years of income, right?"

Lu Yao pondered for a moment, thinking about it, it was also the truth, not too dead, but flexible.

"Otherwise, if you borrow money, you can make an IOU, agree on the repayment time, if you can't pay it back, you will take the B&B as a mortgage; if it is an investment, I will renovate it in full, then the right to use the B&B for the next two years belongs to me, no matter whether it is a profit or a loss in the end, it will be returned to the villagers themselves after two years. ”

Lu Mingchang was overjoyed and said: "This plan is good, but since it is cooperation, how should the specific profit be calculated?"

He is an accountant and is more sensitive to profits, since it is Lu Yao and the villagers who cooperate to develop the homestay, it is natural to ensure that both parties have money to earn, otherwise no matter which party suffers, they will not be able to cooperate for a long time.

Lu Yao said: "I declare in advance that I am only responsible for paying for the renovation, and the homestay is chosen by the tourists themselves, and the photos of the renovated homestay are posted on the notice board at the entrance of the village, and no one is allowed to solicit customers, and the price of the homestay is unified, one hundred yuan a night, and when the time comes, four or six points, I will be four and six villagers." ”

"As for the specific room hygiene, eating and other issues are the responsibility of the villagers themselves, what do you think?"

Lu Yao had already said it so clearly, what else could everyone say? Naturally, they nodded and agreed.

Lu Mingyi asked, "So how many homes should we renovate at the beginning?"

Lu Yao smiled: "Uncle, you are too anxious, whether anyone is willing to transform is another matter." However, I suggest that the first batch of 20 rooms be renovated for the time being, and try the effect first, so as not to renovate all of them, and not so many people come, so that everyone will lose confidence. ”

In fact, there are only more than 100 households in the fishing village, and most of them have moved out, and not every family is willing to renovate, so the choice is easy.

However, Lu Mingyi still decided to investigate first, and try to choose some diligent people to give priority to transformation.

Otherwise, if you choose someone who is lazy and unwilling to take care of the room, the tourists will not want to come back after staying once, and the reputation of the village will be ruined.
