The old man who sold horses waited for the snow to melt on the seventh day of the Lunar New Year before he came to pull the furniture of his house, so he invisibly gave Yang Liufang another live advertisement. He and the head of the stone village went out to work on a new project, but before they came back, people from Shili Eight Village who came to make furniture were already waiting in the small courtyard. Wang Shan didn't know about the furniture, so he just poured water for the guests and waited for the stone village chief and Yang Liufang to come back before making a decision.

After the snow had fallen, the sun had shone on the loess road, and it was not until four o'clock in the afternoon that they drove the donkey cart back on the muddy road. The head of the stone village communicated with everyone with a light car, and only asked Yang Liufang to come forward when talking about the price, so that the next six sets were there, and the work of half a year was there.

Li Tongfu waited until the tenth day of the Lunar New Year to rush back, during which he spent a family Spring Festival with the two old people at home, and also took the two old people to Wenzhou to visit Liu Xia's parents. When Yang Liugen heard that his apprentice had a future, he was even more overjoyed, and muttered that Ah Fang did not teach well during his study of art, and regretted that he did not let him start in joinery earlier.

After sending the second elder on the long-distance bus back to Yangshi, he stayed in Wenzhou and inspected several tanning manufacturers. As soon as I heard that he came back from the northwest to do leather business, everyone generally shook their heads, through their introduction, Li Tongfu knew why they shook their heads, it turned out that a family-style tannery in Wenzhou at that time, processing more than 300 pieces of leather a day. The largest tannery in the northwest, the Tibet Tannery, only processes 4,000 pieces of leather a year. And due to the poor traffic, the leather of Qinghai in Tibet must first be transported to Inner Mongolia by sheepskin raft by the Yellow River, and then from Inner Mongolia to Suning and other places in Hebei through Zhangjiakou. And some of the leather in Wenzhou comes from these places.

The origin of raw hides is 5 yuan, plus the transportation cost has reached more than 20 yuan, and the price advantage has long been gone. Unless you open a tannery locally, this maximizes cost advantages. Li Tongfu returned to Xizhou with the results of the investigation, and then bought a batch of haberdashery in the wholesale market before returning to Zhao Machuan. Yang Liufang was already nervously carrying out the work of making furniture with the workers.

After the Lantern Festival, all walks of life have entered the formal state of work, government departments are no exception, the newly transferred Hanwangchuan Township leader, the first stop of the inspection in Hanwangchuan Middle School, when he saw that the students were still using the long desks, he gave instructions to the entourage: "No matter how poor you are, you can't be poor in education, no matter how hard you can't be bitter for children." Coordinate with various departments as soon as possible to change the desks and chairs of the dolls. ”

In the second week after the township leaders gave instructions, the project of renovating desks and chairs was held at the township mayor's office meeting. In the end, it was decided that part of the township financial subsidy would be provided, and part of the industrial villages would be used to make new desks and chairs for the students. At this time, a cadre who had participated in Wang Shan's wedding recommended that Zhao Machuan had a carpentry shop to do, and the township leaders asked the person in charge of the carpentry shop and the village chief of Zhao Machuan to hold a meeting to discuss. Yang Liufang and Shi Village Chief were busy making furniture, so they asked Li Tongfu to follow Village Chief Zhao to a meeting, and when the two arrived at the venue, Li Tongfu saw that the new township leader was none other than Director Lu of the original station police station, and Director Lu was also surprised: "You are the one who sells shoes?" Why do you open a furniture factory now? ”

"Yes, Lu ...... Leader, I am still selling department stores, and the furniture factory is owned by my younger brother. ”

"Can you issue an invoice?"

"Not yet, because we haven't registered."

"Then you can't do this project, we need to pay the bills to the public, so we must issue invoices."

"Is it too late for us to sign up now?"

"Oh, I'll help you ask." Leader Lu said and picked up the phone to communicate with the industrial and commercial office. After some communication, let them go back to prepare the lease agreement, legal person ID card, and more than 100,000 registered capital.

"One hundred thousand, that's many."

"The state has regulations that the minimum registered capital of an individual registered company is 100,000 yuan, and it must be deposited into a designated bank account before it can be used for three months."

"Oh, Leader Lu, then let's go back and discuss."

Li Tongfu went back and talked to Yang Liufang about the meeting. Others are easy to do, and the ID card can be used by Li Tongfu first, but the 100,000 registered capital makes it difficult for the two. All the money of the two people combined, including the furniture money collected recently, is more than 40,000 points. It is also necessary to set aside workers' wages and usual expenses. In this way, even if you have a tight hand, it will take 60,000 yuan to make it up.

"No, let's borrow it, it's going to take three months anyway."

"Who would have such a large amount of spare money in their hands?"

"Go to the city to find Boss Zhou and Boss Chen to try."

"Okay, I'll go with you."

At noon, Yang Liufang did not rest, and took the workers to rush a batch of mortise and tenon structures, so that after he left, the workers still had work. In the afternoon, the two hired a tractor and rushed to Xizhou City.

"Brother Chen, Happy New Year."

"Happy New Year, Xiao Yang, I heard that your carpentry shop business is good?"

"So-so. Brother Chen, I'm here to ask you for help. So he described the project of making desks and chairs for students at a meeting in the township.

"Now the registered capital is still short of 60,000 yuan, so our brothers came this time to ask for your help."

"Oh, this matter, you look at it like this, Xiao Yang, it's okay to help, but my ability is limited by myself, and I have to pay interest if I find someone else, and I have to pay interest according to the rules of our hometown."

"Lift? Also here? When Yang Liufang was in his hometown, he knew the rules of the club, which was a private lending method that began in his hometown of Yueqing, that is, the owner agreed with a newcomer member that the member would first pay the owner a certain amount of yuan at one time. From the second month onwards, the Owner pays the Member a certain amount of money each month for a number of months, so that the total amount received by the Member is higher than the amount originally paid to the Owner. This method reached its climax when he first learned carpentry, and even the honest carpenter of the master Yang Liugen also took his hard-earned money to join the club.

"Yes, it's not easy to go out, the bank can't borrow it, so you can only use the form of a private meeting."

"Brother Chen, how is the interest generally calculated here?"

"From half a year, 1 cent. If you borrow 60,000, the half-year period is 60,006. ”

"I'll just use it for more than three months."

"That's half a year. Do you see if you can accept it? ”

Yang Liufang and Li Tongfu looked at each other, and he turned his heart sideways: "Brother Chen, I accept it." Then you bother. ”

"Okay, I'll tell a few of our fellow merchants in the market later, and let everyone form a meeting to piece it together for you. Don't expire, borrow it and pay it back. ”

"Well, don't worry. Brother Chen, besides, this money is the registered capital of the enterprise, and I can't move it when it is deposited in a fixed bank account. Three months expire before it can be raised. ”

In about an hour or two, 60,000 cash has been scraped together one after another. With this huge amount of money, the two went to the bank to withdraw 40,000 yuan of their deposits, and made up 100,000 yuan, and the bank directly sent a car to send the two back to Zhao Machuan. As soon as the head of Shishi Village heard that he wanted to register an enterprise to open a factory, he said that he would ask Yang Liufang to open the factory in their village, and promised to provide two acres of land for free as the construction land for the factory.

"Brother Shi, it's a good thing, I don't have the money to build a factory now, and now the 100,000 yuan is going to be deposited in the bank, and I can't move it for three months."

"Then wait three months, you see that Zhao Machuan and Wang Shawan have sand as a pillar industry of the economy, and Emeng has nothing, but as the village head, Emo also hopes that the villagers can live a good life. You see, now your workers are all from Emeng Village, and if you build a factory in Emeng Village, you don't need to be taught, and the workers can get started directly, and it's not convenient. ”

"Yo, indeed, but Brother Shi, the traffic over there is really not very convenient."

"Well, don't you have three months left? The three-month guarantee will open up a main road to a three-way intersection. ”

"Brother Shi, don't be reluctant."

"No, no, what could be better than making the villagers rich. Village Chief Zhao still has a township to run. ”

Village Chief Shi didn't know how to persuade Village Chief Zhao, and asked for some of the road repair funds from the township leaders, but the manual part asked them to pay for free. According to the workers who worked, the head of Shishi Village said on the village radio: "In the future, a furniture factory will be built in the village, and the people in the village will no longer have to get up early and run to Zhao Wangchuan when they go to work in the furniture factory. ”

The men, women and children of Shibi Village went into battle to build a road to prosperity.
