Xiang Yang certainly knew that his name had spread in Huhai Town, but this was all within Xiang Yang's expectations.
Ten million may not be a big deal in Longcheng City. There are many bosses in Longcheng City who can take out ten million.
But in Huhai Town, the poorest of the counties under Longcheng City and the most remote of the towns under Lianhua County, 10 million is definitely a huge sum of money that many people can hardly imagine.
It would be a lie for Xiang Yang to say that he felt no emotion at all since his name was known to most people in Huhai Town.
As the wild geese leave their voices behind, people leave their names behind. The more capable a person is, the less he can resist this name.
But to say that Xiang Yang was very excited, that was not the case. With his current status and abilities, he had already been an important figure in Huhai Town.
In the past two days, Xiang Yang paid a little attention to the production progress of the blessing lanterns.
The production process of the blessing lanterns went very smoothly.
Grandpa Fu found enough people on the same day and is currently working in full swing. On average, he can produce more than 10,000 prayer lanterns every day, and it is estimated that 100,000 prayer lanterns can be completed in a week.
When recruiting, a very interesting thing happened.
At that time, some people knew that Grandpa Fu was recruiting people and offering a daily wage of 100 yuan, so they hurried to find Grandpa Fu to sign up. However, when they arrived, they didn't even get a sip of soup, and they immediately beat their chests and stamped their feet.
Later, when they found out that Xiang Yang was the real boss behind the scenes, they immediately turned to find Xiang Yang.
Xiang Yang couldn't help but smile bitterly. What else could he do at the moment
All the positions needed on his ship had already been filled, and he didn't need anyone at all.
However, Xiang Yang did not let everyone come to him in vain. He told everyone that many people would come to Qinglongwan for tourism in the near future. If they were free, they could go to Qinglongwan to sell blessing lanterns. Xiang Yang sold them for five yuan each, and at ten yuan each, they would definitely make a lot of money.
But no one believed Xiang Yang, and they were all hesitant when placing orders. Obviously, they didn't believe that anyone would come to Qinglongwan for tourism, and they didn't believe that prayer lanterns at ten yuan each could be sold in Qinglongwan.
Xiang Yang did not force it. This matter would be proven soon. When they got the benefits, they would definitely come to him. There was no need to say anything more to them now.
Due to limited knowledge, people cannot explain that the earth is round to those who think it is square.
There is no rush for the blessing lanterns. The goods are piled up at Grandpa Fu’s house anyway, and you can pick them up anytime you want.
But another thing gave Xiang Yang a headache.
"Yangzi, are you sure this is true?" Village Chief Zuo couldn't believe his ears. He asked Xiang Yang several times and was always skeptical. Xiang Yang was already impatient, but he still kept asking.
"Are you sure that our Yanlong Village will have over a thousand tourists coming every day. They will stay overnight in our Yanlong Village and earn at least dozens of dollars for an empty room? They will also eat in our Yanlong Village, with ordinary home-cooked meals, and one dish can sell for more than ten dollars? Is it really such a good thing?" Old Man Fang asked as he followed the footsteps of Village Chief Zuo.
"Lao Fang, haven't I told you already? It's true, absolutely true. How could what I said be false?" Village Chief Zuo said with a wry smile.
"Where did this news come from?" Old Man Fang asked again.
"Xiang Yang, Boss Xiang said it himself." Village Chief Zuo said seriously.
"Boss Xiang said it himself? Well, I believe it!" Old Man Fang still didn't believe it in his heart, but his son used to be idle and didn't go to work every day. He also caused trouble for the family and was often looked down upon in the village.
Ever since Old Man Fang's son followed Xiang Yang, not only has his son become a well-off man now, he also gives back 10,000 yuan to the family every month. Even many people from the neighboring village have come to his house to propose marriage, so Old Man Fang has special respect for Xiang Yang.
Such a scene is not accidental.
It is happening everywhere in Yanlong Village.
The cause was that Xiang Yang told Village Chief Zuo about the huge influx of people that the burning of the pagoda might bring to the village, and asked Village Chief Zuo to find a way to arrange accommodation and dining for the tourists.
Village Chief Zuo was also shocked when he first heard the news.
But soon, Village Chief Zuo's face turned red with excitement, because he was very sure that this would be a good thing and would make the economy of Yanlong Village grow by leaps and bounds.
Immediately afterwards, Village Chief Zuo gathered all the villagers for a meeting, told everyone about this matter, and asked everyone to renovate the vacant houses in their homes so that they could rent them out when the time comes, and also sell more vegetables and store them at home, waiting to set up a farm stay.
But many villagers don’t believe it!
The villagers who have lived in Yanlong Village all their lives subconsciously think that there won't be a single blue dragon bird coming, so how can there be so many tourists? What a joke.
certainly.
Some villagers also believe it.
"Old Yu, we still have three empty rooms in our house, and we have tens of thousands of yuan in savings. Why don't we renovate those three rooms? We can rent them out for at least two hundred yuan a day." Yu Xiang's boss said to Yu Xiang with anticipation.
Yu Xiang hesitated. "I just bought a fishing boat with someone in a joint venture. We only have a few tens of thousands of yuan in savings left. If the fishing boat doesn't make money and the savings are gone, I will never be able to make a comeback."
His wife was a bit disappointed and said, "Boss Xiang has invested tens of millions of dollars in a plate and he is not afraid of not being able to recover. Why are you afraid of your tens of thousands of dollars? Why did I marry a loser like you?"
After his wife finished scolding, Yu Xiang, who was sitting on a small stool, did not say anything for a long time. After a long silence, Yu Xiang said in a low voice: "The kid from the old Xiang family is really bold. His move is to make the old Xiang family rich for several generations in one bite, and also to benefit the entire hometown!"
In fact, everyone in the entire Yanlong Village knew that if Xiang Yang's move succeeded, it would be of great benefit to all of them. Now they should follow Xiang Yang and fight, and should not hold Xiang Yang back.
But there is always a chance of something happening. What if Xiang Yang made a stupid move this time and spent tens of millions, but failed to attract any tourists
Renovating a house requires investing real money.
Even if the house is renovated and there are no tourists renting it, it will be comfortable to live in it by yourself.
But the villagers have this idea. As for a house, as long as it can shelter from wind and rain, why should it be decorated so beautifully? It is just a place to sleep anyway. Even if it is decorated well, it will still age. It is not as good as putting money in the bank, which can earn interest and can save more and more.
Because of the existence of these thoughts, what was originally a great thing has now caused the entire Yanlong Village to be worried and anxious.
