Chapter 1638: To Get Rich, Build Roads First

But it's not easy to attract investment in a place as remote as Nan Wa Village.

With mountains high and roads far away, who would be willing to invest here?

However, when Ling Zhenfei's Xi Shan Group was established, it brought them great hope.

It seems that as long as someone is willing to invest here, they can succeed.

After the people of Qinghe Village became prosperous, folks from surrounding villages looked on enviously, all wanting such good fortune.

But such opportunities aren't plentiful, and currently, Ling Zhenfei has just established a livestock farm in West Second Village.

Yet, merely by establishing this livestock farm, the villagers have benefited.

Many villagers have gained employment, though there aren't many posts, several families still have members working.

Additionally, infrastructure developments like road construction contribute to the village.

As the saying goes, "To get rich, first build roads." Once roads are built, opportunities naturally follow.

So having a facility built in one's village is crucially important; hence, several villages want to attract the enterprise when Ling Zhenfei mentioned factory construction.

"Zhenfei, I think it should be in our Shahe Village. The water quality here is the best; it's perfect for fish farming."

"You're claiming Shahe's water quality is the best? That's ridiculous. Do you know why it's called Shahe? Because the water is sandy."

"Indeed, let it be in our Nan Wa Village. Listen to our village name: Nan Wa Village. It's a lowland, you won't even need to dig a fish pond."

The village heads argued heatedly, each refusing to yield.

Ling Zhenfei hurriedly stopped them and said, "Alright, everyone, stop arguing. The best location for the village can be determined by Manager Zhou, who is an expert in this field."

Zhou Qun stood up and said, "Actually, when we arrived, we drove around and briefly toured each village. All of your villages are quite nice, beautiful places with scenic views.

But regrettably, our fish pond can only be built in one location, so the other places won't work. However, I need to hear your requirements and offered pricing to decide."

Zhao Ziming from Nan Wa Village said, "Isn't this a given? Last time, Uncle Xu worked hard to convince us. If Xi Shan Group builds a factory in our village, we won't charge anything."

Sha Dong said, "Our village won't charge anything either."

Last time, they set prices very low, but who would've thought Xu Dashan would eventually offer it for free.

This free offer led Ling Zhenfei to build the livestock base in West Second Village.

So this time, all village party secretaries learned and they all offered it for free.

This brought some trouble, and Zhou Qun glanced at Ling Zhenfei. Ling Zhenfei looked at Zhou Qun and Guo Shun, saying, "You're the experts, you decide."

Guo Shun, Si Ming, and Zhou Qun discussed among themselves.

Zhou Qun said, "Alright, the decision is made. We'll choose Nan Wa Village."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Ziming was overjoyed and nearly jumped with excitement.

Sha Dong and others felt naturally disappointed, but there was nothing they could do.

Ling Zhenfei said, "Actually, there's another matter I came here for."

"What is it?" Xu Dashan asked.

Ling Zhenfei said, "It's related to the livestock base; I want to expand it."

Xu Dashan paused briefly, "How do you plan to expand it?"

Ling Zhenfei said, "I want to extend the current livestock base to both sides. I've checked, the areas on both sides are hillside land that shouldn't have any plantations, so the expansion should be relatively simple."

Xu Dashan thought for a moment and said, "Zhenfei, what you don't know is that last time I offered the base for free, it took me a lot of effort to get it done.

I just finished handling that, so asking to expand now is indeed a bit difficult."

Ling Zhenfei was taken aback; he didn't expect Xu Dashan to be so troubled.

"Ling Zhenfei said, "Don't worry, Uncle Xu, if it involves anyone's land, we can pay for it."

Xu Dashan said a bit awkwardly, "It's not about the money. Don't you know? If the livestock base extends to one side, there's a hillside with our village's cemetery, so it's tricky."

Realizing it involved a cemetery, Ling Zhenfei understood why it couldn't be moved.

Ling Zhenfei said, "How about this, we extend towards Qinghe Village's forest, and not involve your village's land, so it can connect with our village's land."

Xu Dashan hesitated slightly, at which point Sha Dong said, "Mr. Ling, perhaps just move the base to Shahe Village. We'll offer three times the area West Second Village provided for Xi Shan Group's livestock base."

Ling Zhenfei, hearing this, was astonished; he didn't expect Sha Dong to be so bold, making such an offer was truly impressive.

However, moving the livestock base was not an easy task; the base's forage was all imported from abroad, and it wasn't so simple to change locations.

Sha Dong's proposal left Xu Dashan somewhat shocked, saying, "Sha Dong, what are you talking about? Do you think I'm that kind of person?"

After that, Xu Dashan told Ling Zhenfei, "Okay, let's do as you said, extending towards your village."

Currently, there is a shortage of everything but land in the village, as villagers can't sell land since it's a state policy; otherwise, Ling could directly buy some.

This matter was settled, and some people drinking didn't want Ling Zhenfei to leave; they urged him to consider bringing other projects to their village.

Actually, Ling Zhenfei did have a project — planting tea trees.

The area he was in didn't have a tradition of tea cultivation.

But over time, Ling Zhenfei developed a liking for tea.

Especially wealthy individuals, who have a particular fondness for tea.

Whenever he visits Ma Long, Ma Long always enjoys tea, each time a different kind but always very good.

Additionally, Wang Yanan from Modu Restaurant has an ancestral home in the Mengshan Region.

The tea from there is exquisite; last time, when she visited home, she brought some for Ling Zhenfei, personally brewed for him — it tasted really good.

Thus, from then, Ling Zhenfei entertained the idea of growing tea himself.

Tea is quite profitable; the most expensive ones are sold by the gram, costing thousands or even tens of thousands — just thinking about it is alarming.

However, the idea of growing tea was just a thought, but as they were asking, Ling decided to share it, spurred by the alcohol.

Ling Zhenfei said, "Of course there are projects, they're just a bit immature."

"Zhenfei, tell us about it. We're experienced, as soon as we hear, we'll know whether it's reliable or not."

"Exactly, tell us so we can have an idea."
