Chapter 262: Chapter 262: Discussing Investment Matters

"President Gao, please have a seat," Ji Yang invited Gao Daqing to sit down.

At this time, a girl from the Party and Government Office quickly poured tea and brought it over.

Now, several people had joined the Party and Government Office of Qingyuan Village, including two girls, one of whom, named Guo Xiaoying, was very beautiful and had just passed the civil service exam.

After everyone left, Gao Daqing looked at Ji Yang and said, "Secretary Ji, I’ve almost got a clear understanding of the situation, and just like you said, there’s not much left to get involved with in Wushu Village."

As he said this, he was somewhat frustrated. Although there were people who were happy about the situation, unfortunately, it didn’t have much to do with him. He couldn’t benefit much from it, and joining now probably wouldn’t be approved by the head of his family either.

"President Gao, I’m also at a loss, as you’ve seen. Everyone has joined forces, and even if I wanted to get some benefits for you, I couldn’t manage it," Ji Yang said.

Gao Daqing replied, "Could you tell me more about that tourism project you mentioned?"

He came here influenced by some instigators, but after dealing with Ji Yang, he found that Ji Yang wasn’t difficult to get along with. Moreover, Ji Yang had been very appropriate in handling his affairs, so his impression of Ji Yang was very positive.

Ji Yang explained, "I just had a meeting where we pooled together the tourism resources of Qingyuan. Let me tell you about it..."

Ji Yang shared the content from the meeting with him.

After listening carefully, Gao Daqing’s face lit up with joy and said, "That’s great. If we develop it together, it might really work."

"The key is funding. To develop such a large-scale project, tens of millions won’t be enough, several hundred million will definitely be needed. I’ve contacted someone from an investment company, and they said they can put in fifty million and not participate in the management. They’re willing to just check the accounts and take their dividend," Ji Yang explained.

"Fifty million is a bit too little."

Ji Yang replied, "Actually, the Wu Family Sisters’ hot springs and waterfall are already almost fully developed. When the time comes, we won’t need to include them, we just need to interact with them. Also, the Bandit’s Stronghold ethnic village project is nearing completion as well and can simply interact later too. Moreover, our township has divided up the work, and everyone has their own designated area."

Gao Daqing frowned and said, "Those projects are impressive. Without them, what’s the point?"

Ji Yang smiled and said, "We run a travel agency. Just think about how many people would want to come here to see these places. As long as our promotion is on point, would we have to worry about not having visitors?"

"A travel agency, would that work?"

"If you have the money, you could buy up all the projects, but I don’t think that’s necessary. Although they’ve been developed, they’re fragmented and haven’t formed a synergy. If one force could bring them all together and set up a really good route, it would be easy to make this place popular. Think about it: for bathing, there are hot springs; Xincheng offers many entertainment projects left from the past, only removing the undesirable elements, which is a highlight. Then there’s Bandit’s Stronghold, which many people are curious about. If we provide guidance and develop some fun content, we can definitely attract a lot of visitors. Add to that Peach Blossom Source and the Black Mud project. Also, we’re about to develop Stone Forest in Changshi Village. Each one is a project. If all of these can form a synergy, who wouldn’t want to come and see?"

Seeing that Gao Daqing was listening intently, Ji Yang added, "By the way, we’ve also set up a flower plantation base, and we’re going to start a medicinal herb plantation base too. Fresh flowers and medicinal herbs will be another selling point. Besides these, we can also excavate some other recommended spots. With all this, first, we have a travel agency, which is certain to make money. Then, after investing the capital, we can develop the projects that haven’t been developed yet. Won’t that make money?"

"It’s still a matter of money," Gao Daqing wasn’t stupid. After listening, he knew these were definitely good projects, but the thought of his own financial situation made him chuckle bitterly, "I don’t have that much money."

Ji Yang smiled and said, "Once the foreign investors inject fifty million, we’ll take down one project first. Then, use that project as collateral for a loan. Could we do that?"

"As long as there’s collateral, getting a loan definitely won’t be a problem." In this regard, Gao Daqing was quite confident.

"So, the money from the loan could then be used to develop another project."

"Are you suggesting continuous borrowing?"

"There’s certainly risk, but once we have formed interactivity with several projects and can redistribute some of the funds, roll them over, and develop each recommendation in turn, won’t we be able to get Qingyuan Village’s tourism up and running?"

Ji Yang knew that others wouldn’t be able to do such a thing, but for someone like Gao Daqing, this kind of venture wasn’t a problem at all.
