Chapter 239 Funding Road Construction
Chapter 239 Funding Road Construction
After the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, basically all activities related to the year are over.
Those who should go to school should go to school, and those who should start work should work. The Taohua Village Art Learning Center has also started work as scheduled, and those who come to apprentices can hardly wait.
The people in Taohua Village all made money last year, and the surrounding villages were very envious, but there was nothing they could do. Last year, no one else recruited, so they could only be envious.
Later, after starting to recruit apprentices, some idle people in the family came.
Who cares, the people in Taohua Village earn [-] a month, so it's fine for them to earn [-].
I heard that the bamboo weaving in Taohua Village has been sold abroad.And because it was sold abroad, during the Chinese New Year, there was another person who came back to recognize his ancestors with that bamboo woven product.
I'm so envious!
Especially on the sixth day of the first lunar month, the big truck loads of good things are carried to the village, which is really enviable.
How wonderful it would be if such a person came back from my own village!
Well, if you don't have such good luck, you have to work hard with your hands.The people who came to learn were all motivated and wanted to learn a craft seriously.
These people who come to be apprentices are generally in their 40s and [-]s, and they bear the burden of their families. They will not be like young people who learn with enthusiasm, and leave when they are not interested in learning.
They really intend to learn well to improve the family's financial situation.
Relying on the small amount of land per capita, it is impossible to support a large family.
Cheng He tried his best to coax Cheng Xinxin to go to school, and she started to go to school on the first day after the new year.
Alas, the little girl is used to being lazy at home, and really doesn't want to go to school to be restrained.
Just wait for her to get used to it.This year is one year older than last year, so I should be more adaptable.
After sending the children to school and returning, Cheng He received a call from Henry who had returned to the United States.
They have been back for a few days.
Cheng He asked with a smile: "How is Second Master Cheng going back? Is he in good health?"
After all, there are two hemispheres, the time difference factor, and the old man is getting old, so I don't know how the current physical condition is after the trip back to China.
It was early morning in the United States at this time, and Henry replied in a good mood: "Strange to say, I was also worried about his physical condition, but in the past few days after coming back, my father's physical condition seems to be better than before."
He guessed that his father may have found his hometown and successfully returned to China. He was in such a good mood, so his body also improved.
This is good news.
But he didn't know that it was all because Cheng He "blessed" his body with special energy when they were about to board the plane.
The energy of the old man's whole body has probably returned to what it was 20 years ago, and naturally it looks better than before.
Cheng He smiled and replied: "That's really great. We have a saying here, everything is fine when you are in a good mood."
Henry said: "I'll tell you one thing, I decided to invest my new factory in your Nanshan City."
Cheng He was taken aback for a moment, thinking he heard it wrong, and asked, "The new factory is invested in Nanshan City?"
He hadn't carefully asked about Henry's current situation in the United States before, but he knew it was probably not bad anyway.
But think about it, Cheng Erxi lives in the United States under such conditions, and has no relatives, and people of yellow race are discriminated against in the United States, so how good can it be?
It is considered very good to be able to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars to buy so much meat and fish and donate them to the village.
It never occurred to him that he would still want to invest in a factory in Nanshan City.
I don't know how many tier cities Nanshan City is at present. If there is such a cross-border investment, it will be very good.
Cheng He was really a little surprised at this time.
Henry said again: "I want to pay some money to repair the road from Nanshan City to Taohua Village-oh no, I mean, speed up the progress. Can you help me find your relevant departments and ask about this ?”
He has seen those road repairs, and a blind person can see that it is the lack of funds that makes the repairs so slow.
Investing in road construction seems to be a waste of money, but these can be exchanged for benefits.Every foreign investor knows this.
Whether the factory opens smoothly, whether various approval procedures after opening the factory, whether it can be simplified, whether the factory can get along well with the local people after opening, etc., these small details are all related to the attitude of the municipal government.
They donated the money. These are small problems. The municipal government will not make things difficult for them, and will even help them deal with them.
In addition, the road is not short. After he pays, he can enjoy very practical benefits in various tax rebates and other aspects.
Money must be spent, it depends on how it is spent.
After repairing the road leading to Taohua Village, it will be easier for his father to return to the village in the future, which can be regarded as giving back to the village and gaining a good reputation.
After comprehensive consideration, he made such a decision.
Investors don't just look at the money in front of them.
Cheng He was a little speechless, feeling that Cheng Henry was really generous.Not to mention investing in the construction of factories in China, but also paying for road construction, that road will cost a lot of money!
In fact, he also knew that three or forty years ago, during that special period of time, the country was poor and white, and most of the hotels, roads, and bridges were almost funded by returned overseas Chinese.
Many overseas Chinese rely on these to get through the official way, and now they have become invisible clans. I don't know how nourishing they are.
Foreign media believe that China's rapid development is inseparable from the first batch of overseas Chinese who built the country.
Now, the influence of overseas Chinese may not be as great as it was then, but they are still very attractive.
Cheng Henry wants to do these things well, but he also knows that the national conditions of different countries are different, and there are many "hidden rules" of one kind or another.If he wants to do things more efficiently, he might as well entrust these things to the reliable Cheng He and let him be the middleman.
After all, the locals are more familiar with it.
He is a native of Peach Blossom Village who was born and raised abroad. He doesn't know many details, so let someone trustworthy handle them.
People who do big things are also good at seeing people.He felt that Cheng He was someone worthy of entrustment.
Now that I think so, I will no longer doubt it.
In fact, he also does things in the same way in the United States. With so many businesses, it is impossible for him to handle everything by himself, and he always has to leave it to others.
Cheng He received this task by accident, and he was really happy and worried.
Such a great good thing is of course worthy of joy; but Henry trusts him so much, but he doesn't know anything about municipal affairs.
Excited, he took his mobile phone and spun around on the spot a few times, and suddenly thought of his old classmate Liang Zhong.
Although Liang Zhong's current position is not high, he always knows what departments and procedures are going to be run in it, right?
Even if he is not very clear, he can always ask, right?
What he asked were all his colleagues, so he could save a lot of wrongdoing.
Thinking so, he called Liang Zhong.
Liang Zhong received the call and said happily, "Old classmate, what can I do for you?"
After the meeting, chatting among the students became much easier.
It was the sixteenth day of the first lunar month, and they had already started working.
Cheng He asked: "I have something else I want to ask you. On the third day of the first lunar month in our village, an overseas Chinese came back. Do you remember?"
"Remember, remember! There was such a big commotion, how could you not remember it! That meat—it's meat forest! It's too big a scene. What's the matter? What happened to the overseas Chinese?" Liang Zhong asked.
"He said that he wanted to invest and build a factory in the city, and he wanted to ask what procedures and procedures to go through. Cross-border investment, things are said to be complicated, and he asked me to ask. Can I ask you this? " Cheng He asked.
"Oh, this matter. This is not under the control of our department, but I can help you ask. You wait for me, a day or so, I will give you a flow chart, and write down everything you need to prepare." Liang Zhong was very excited said happily.
It is always a good thing for someone to invest. Although it is not under the control of his department, he can ask his colleagues.
Send a message.
Those who are really responsible for this item may be able to prepare the process table in 10 minutes.
The process table seems to be a trivial matter, but people who don't understand it can lose their legs for a trivial matter.
Cheng He said with a smile: "Oh, old classmate, I knew that you could be trusted with this matter. If I asked myself, I don't know when I would have to ask, and I might not be able to get it right."
Liang Chong smiled and said, "Oh, Heizi, you still talk about this between us. Besides, I am also a public servant of the people. It is what I should do to solve the people's worries and problems."
He pretended to be an official, but he didn't put on any airs.He didn't show any difficulty in helping.
Cheng He said again: "There is one more thing. They want to donate to repair the road to our Taohua Village."
That road has no name, it is called Provincial Road 203, but in informal occasions, few people call it that.
After Liang Zhong heard it, he was shocked, and the phone fell on the desk with a "snap".
He quickly picked it up again, put the phone back to his ear, and asked, "You said...donate for road repairs? Did I hear correctly?"
If it is said that the investment and construction of factories is not under the control of their department, then the mountain road from Nanshan City to Taohua Village is their department's business.
In the eyes of outsiders, this is a fat department; but in his eyes, it is a hard job.
Insufficient funds have always been a major problem. Although repairs have already begun, no one knows whether all the funds have been fully secured.
Therefore, these errand runners have assigned a task at hand, which is to ask for alms from the big companies in Nanshan City and ask them to contribute.
Contributing, naturally also promises benefits.
Alas, the key point is that the road repair has nothing to do with their business, and there is no obvious benefit to them. In addition, the cost is too high, so the enthusiasm of private companies is not very high.
Moreover, those private companies are currently struggling to survive, complaining to them every day, it is really difficult to support such a large amount of construction.
Now, this is the problem before them. Those who have no qualifications are worrying about this matter every day.
Everyone knows that if things are done well, the credit will not go to them; but now, if things are not done well, they will naturally be under pressure.
Worrying about this!
Now Cheng He told him that the native rich overseas Chinese in their village would pay for the road construction!
Could there be anything better?
Not to mention, Liang Zhong hung up the phone excitedly, and went to Taohua Village in person to discuss this matter together.
By the way, he also went to his colleague's department and got the foreign company's investment process form - don't wait for a day, it must be done now, and he took it to Taohua Village.
