Chapter 119 Business Planning

The planning of Dongmen City starts from the moat outside the east gate of Bairen City, extends westward for 300 meters, and builds a main street named Dongmen Street.Build a horizontal street every 100 meters on both sides of the street, forming a layout of one vertical and two horizontal.Plots of different sizes are marked on both sides of the street, which can be sold to shops to build their own houses. Travelers will also build some paved houses on both sides of Dongmen Street for rent and operation by merchants.

"Your plan is so big, let's not talk about how much construction resources will be occupied. Are there so many merchants in Lingao to rent your shopfronts? It doesn't mean that the peddlers who sell vegetables also come to rent?"

"Lingao's economy is very small, basically a natural economy. Is this market a little exaggerated?" Cheng Dong expressed concern.

Dongmen Chuiyu is confident: "This is a long-term plan, we plan to start the first phase of the project."

The first phase of the project includes the construction of 100-meter streets and supporting sewers, and the construction of a mule and horse inn, which is a common hotel on old official roads and large markets.There is a large yard in the inn, which is used to tie mules and horses and park vehicles; there is a warehouse, where merchants can store goods temporarily, and there is a kitchen, where water and fire are convenient, but there is no food, and merchants have to cook by themselves.The accommodation is mainly a shop, but there are also some single rooms.It is a place where small and medium merchants often settle down.

A restaurant——He also explained that the traveler has more and more contacts with the local people, and needs a place outside the city where they can meet, talk and eat, and they can also serve wealthy merchants at ordinary times.

On the opposite side of the management office building, a commercial hall will be built.The trading house borrowed some models from the British East India Company's trading house: a building surrounded by high walls, containing trading houses; warehouses and empty yards for storing and stacking goods; and guest rooms and restaurants for important merchants and conference room.

The original plan was to bring tap water to Dongmen City, but long-distance water supply is still difficult.Instead, several wells were dug, one of which was a public well, providing free drinking water for people and livestock.Finally, public toilets will also be built-the problem of the locals who come to Dongmen City to do business these days defecate indiscriminately has caused everyone a headache.

Even the issue of greening has been taken into consideration-you must know that even Bairen City has not had any greening projects so far. Street trees will be planted on both sides of Dongmen Street. As for the tree species, it is up to the agricultural department to choose.Wu Nanhai immediately said to study and study.

As for safety, Dugu proposed that there is no need to worry. The main building of the market is a masonry structure, the doors and windows are covered with iron sheets, and a tower is planned to be built at each of the four corners of the wall of the store.Even if someone came to attack, they would not be able to rush in for a while, and the gun towers and sentry towers on the earthen ramparts of Bairen City were even closer.As for law and order issues such as small-scale riots and robberies, he applied for a ration of ten pairs of stab-proof vests, stab-proof gloves, and batons, and formed the "Dongmen City Comprehensive Management Law Enforcement Team" with the existing staff—"guaranteed not to let Anyone here is arrogant." Dugu promised to marry him swearing.

"All of these can be given to you." Wen Desi said, "But what method are you going to use to attract investment?"

"I want to talk about the general idea. It's relatively large and complicated. How about it?"

After getting everyone's permission, Dongmen Chuiyu picked up the folder on the table.This business plan was mainly discussed between him and Yan Maoda and Zhang Xin. Yan Maoda is the manager of a jewelry company and is currently going to Guangzhou with Xiao Zishan. Zhang Xin is the sales section chief of a small shipyard. When it comes to business In terms of ability, Dongmen Chuiyu had no choice but to bow down.However, the ambition of these two people is not to engage in local business, so they don't bother to compete with Dongmen, and the cooperation is more pleasant.

The current prosperity of Dongmen City is based on the large-scale procurement of construction travelers. The huge consumption of more than 500 high-consumption modern people has attracted many people to come here to do business and trade.However, the market development supported by such large-scale group purchases is limited. How can people from the whole county and even neighboring counties come to this place to do business and consume?The first plan they proposed was: build roads.

The location of Bairen City is ideal.It is the middle section of Bopu Bay, the gateway port from the county seat to the county.It is located in the center of both sides of the Wenlan River with the most developed economy and the largest population in the county, and its geographical location extends in all directions.At present, the road from Bairen City to Bopu has been completed, and the road extending to Lingao County is also under construction. It will not be long before the county town and Bopu Port will be fully connected.Not only merchants from the mainland can reach the county seat conveniently and quickly, residents living on both sides of the Wenlan River can also reach the county seat conveniently and quickly through this road.

However, the road is located in the east of the river, and it is difficult for the people in the west of the river to enjoy convenient transportation. Dongmen Chuyu proposed to build a convenient bridge upstream of the Bairen Hydropower Station to connect the north and south traffic. Wenshui Bridge

As long as there is a constant stream of people passing by Bairen City, the only market on the road, Dongmen City, will form a distribution center for people and materials, and business will naturally prosper

Wen Desi agreed with the bridge proposal.Now that the industrial zone in Hexi has started construction, it is very inconvenient for people and materials to pass through. Building a bridge is indeed a good thing that kills two birds with one stone.

Dongmen Chuiyu said that ordinary people are basically afraid to walk on the current roads, and there are gun towers and cars running.Everyone is more afraid.

"It's not a problem, it's easy to solve." Wen Desi frowned, "But the common people in this time and space don't have the concept of traffic rules, will our cars hit people while running on the road?"

"No, we only have a few cars. It's not a major event. We don't use it at all. Now the fastest on the road is the bicycle, and the biggest is the four-wheeled carriage. Safety is not a big problem."

The second option is to attract foreign businessmen.The commercial department got a clear message from the intelligence and information group: Lingao is not a good market, its economic structure is not only a natural economy, but also a particularly backward natural economy.Needless to say, the total economic output and purchasing power are not as high as those of the Jiangnan and Guangdong regions in the Ming Dynasty, and they are not even at the level of the general population-dense areas in the north.If you want to rely on the traditional time-traveling method to make a fortune quickly, you can sell a large number of modern products with "Kit Kat" skills: such as mirrors, glasses, lighters, etc., this is not feasible here, and you can only sell things to the mainland.The best state is that merchants come to purchase, rather than transport and sell by themselves.

In addition to future industrial products, Lingao itself also has many native products for export.After inquiring historical data, we know that the bulk of the local export materials in the Ming Dynasty were cattle, salt, red and white vines, and betel nuts.Most of the red and white vines and betel nuts are imported from the Lidong area. After processing, they are exported to the mainland. They are the most profitable commodities.

However, for a long time, except for salt, which was shipped from Bopu, Ma Niu and other places in the county, most of the exported commodities were shipped to Fucheng and exported from Shenying Port.If the exported goods can be exported in Bopu instead, Dongmen City with superior traffic conditions will become a distribution center for mainland merchants to purchase local products.

"Now we can't control the trade of betel nuts, but we have already controlled the production of table salt. I propose to fully control the production and sales of salt, so that the salt store in Dongmen City becomes the main wholesale store of Lingao table salt. Completely control the wholesale link of table salt. Merchants must come to Bairen City if they want to buy salt." Dongmen Chuuyu said with his eyes shining--monopoly, monopoly, how much money comes from you!

Other suggestions include exempting Bopu Port from "pumping" and mooring taxes to attract merchant ships from coastal trade to enter the port.To provide a good business environment, such as tax exemption, warehousing and freight services, Dongmen Chuyu even proposed to use the Guangzhou base to develop commercial wireless telegraph services between Hainan and Guangzhou, and report the market conditions in Guangzhou and Macau every day.

With these benefits, merchants on the mainland will naturally move their local product acquisition and processing centers to Lingao, followed by the inflow of many permanent residents and migrants, which will obviously stimulate the economy.In the future, after all the time-traversing people produce modern industrial products, they can use their channels to sell goods and purchase materials to the mainland, so as not to have to do everything by themselves.

The business plan was approved.The construction engineering team complained endlessly, and their tasks were heavy: the road leading to the county seat had just been completed; nearly [-] families who had migrated from Damei Village needed resettlement houses; Bairen City itself still had many projects in progress.Now there is another Dongmen City development project.Brick kilns and cement kilns started production day and night.There is a shortage of labor everywhere.Ma Qianzhu, who was in charge of the overall coordination of the center, was devastated.

Now he found Wu Nanhai, and said with a gloomy face: "Nanhai, your task has increased again. From now on, you will have to prepare meals for 800 more people every day—for the villagers who have moved from Damei Village. The project urgently needs to use this batch of labor."

This notice made Wu Nanhai gasp: he only provided food for 700 people a day at most.Now adding 800 people out of thin air, wouldn't it be a big leap like a satellite.Needless to say, the kitchen equipment alone is not enough.

"The Planning Commission has just brought back a batch of spoils from Damei Village. They are all the kitchen and daily necessities of the Gou family. Go and pick them out." Ma Qianju sat behind a rosewood desk and wrote a few words. A note, stamped with a private seal and handed to him-there is no official seal at the moment, and various documents are subject to the signature of the executive committee and the professional team leader.

"We don't farm, so we don't even have time to cook!" Wu Nanhai erupted because he was always too busy working as a fire leader recently, so he didn't have time to engage in his beloved agriculture.

"Man, you can pick and choose. Some of the women who migrated from Damei Village will help. The main thing is to be reliable, and anyone who has something to do with the Gou family is not allowed. By the way, our food cannot be handled by the locals. It is best The place for cooking is separated, understand?"

"How do I know which people are related to Yougou's family?"

"The security team is conducting a political review of them one by one, and you can select a batch of materials when they come out."
