Chapter 575 Not Worth a Billion

After returning to Qingzhao in Quannan, Lv Dong immediately mobilized personnel and started investment negotiations with Jiu Village. Lv Jianwu served as legal counsel and Xu Man was directly responsible. Wang Dong from 8:00 Online was invited to participate, and he negotiated with Jiu Village personnel. docking.

  Wang Dong knows this industry very well, and 8:00 Online also wants to invest in it. What Jiu Village needs is exactly the money to win the game agency and set up a server room.

   Lv Jianwu has completely turned into a business lawyer since he served as the legal counsel of Lvjiacun's company and Lv Dong's company.

   This group of people rushed to the magic capital before New Year's Day.

  Before the new year, more than a dozen other stores of Lu's Catering in Modu opened one after another, which can be regarded as an initial opening of the Modu market.

  With the arrival of 2001, Lv Dong is busy again, approving annual financial reports, formulating new company plans, further expanding business departments and so on.

  When Du Xiaobing came back, the company held a meeting of all shareholders. The dividend distribution in 2001 was still the same as the previous year, and 20% of the net profit would be distributed to all shareholders one after another before the New Year.

As of December 31, 2001, Lu's Catering has a total of 390 chain stores, which have successively entered nine provinces and cities including Taidong, Henan, Hebei, Xijin, Sudong, Nanhui, Beishan, Beihu and Modu. .

  Because some stores opened in the second half of 2001, the total annual revenue of catering business will exceed 400 million yuan.

   The gross profit of catering companies is relatively high, but Lu's Catering insists on the commitment of food quality and environmental hygiene to be more important than Mount Tai, plus the continuous investment in opening new stores, the net profit rate is not high.

   Even in this era when catering can make huge profits, the net profit margin of Lu's catering is only 20%.

   Like Xinlong Hotpot City in the Quannan area, which was snatched by Lu’s Hotpot as the hotpot leader, it has also been expanding in the past two years. According to information obtained by Lu Dong, their net profit rate can reach 35%.

   Among them, the rigid expenditure ratio of inspection, quality control, hygiene, new product development and food quality, etc., Lu's Catering does not know how much higher than Xinlong Hotpot City.

   These are exactly the expenses that Lu's Catering cannot reduce.

  Lv Dong's philosophy and principles have never changed, and food safety is more important than ever.

  From its establishment to the present, the self-inspection standards of all ingredients and materials used by Lu's Catering in the markets of various regions are all higher than the prescribed standards.

   At the general meeting of shareholders, Lv Dong set the target of Lv's Catering for the new year, which is 2002.

   The main direction of the market is south, and the north is mainly to enter the markets of Beijing and Tianjin, and it depends on the situation to the north.

   is reflected in the specific figures, that is, the number of stores will at least double, and the annual revenue will reach 1 billion yuan.

  Du Xiaobing told Lu Dong something privately, Du Juan's electronics company, with less than 100 employees, achieved sales of over 1 billion yuan in 2001!

   Of course, these envy can't come, Dujuan has obtained the general agent of Taidong of many brands early in the morning by virtue of the relationship at home.

  Although it is not an industry, how many years has Lu's Catering Company been established?

   There is no doubt that Lv's Catering Company is already the leader of the local chain catering industry in Taidong, and the No. 1 or No. 2 private enterprise in Qingzhao County.

   Shengquan Chemical Group in the chemical park is also a privately held company and does not disclose financial statements, so Lu Dong is not sure about the company's revenue and asset status.

   Lv Dong told Song Na privately that the members of the Chemical Group are role models for them to learn from—a typical example of high-profile work and low-key conduct.

   Because they were the first group of people in Qingzhao to get rich, they did not bully the market or do other messy things.

   Like Yang Fugui and Li Xingguo, how many are not finished?

   In Lujia Village, Lujia Food Company and Construction Company have achieved very good results this year. The village's dividend will be distributed to shareholders and villagers before the fifteenth day of the twelfth lunar month.

   At the same time, Lv Dong went through the preparatory inspection and officially took the oath to receive the certificate in accordance with the procedures, becoming a member of the largest group in the world, and the Lvjiacun village branch also has an additional official member.

   In the yard of the Lujia Village Brigade, two large noticeboards with new architectural renderings were posted. They were pushed up by more than 20 strong laborers and fixed by workers on the left and right of the office building.

  The position on the left to the west is the schematic diagram of the architectural effect of Lujia New Village.

   The position on the right to the east is the architectural rendering of the old Lu Village after the renovation.

  The old village of Lujia Village has completed all the survey and design, and will wait until the end of the new year to start the construction.

Since Lujia Village is not a big village in the first place, the old village is mainly composed of two streets, north and south, but the south of the old street is blocked. To go to the old street, you must turn from Jijie or go around from the north. Open to the south, directly connected to the east-west main road at the head of the village.

  Old Street has been transformed into a folk street with ancient buildings. The Jijie Street is mainly used for commercial purposes to restore the Lujia Village Market, create a snack street, and produce and sell handicrafts.

  If you want to build a folk village and make Lujia Village famous in folk customs and ancient villages, you must build a large number of ancient buildings in the new era.

   As the saying goes, since the early Ming Dynasty, after six hundred years of wind and rain, the complete ancient architectural village has been preserved...

  Planned to build, there are as many as a dozen ancient buildings such as ancient gates, ancient dams, ancient bridges, ancient posts, ancient roads and ancient temples.

   Lujiacun Primary School and the original brigade yard were not demolished and rebuilt, which can be said to save a lot of effort.

  Especially the large stone stage and large screen wall in the former primary school, which can be called special features.

  After the reconstruction is completed in the future, the tourism development company also plans to hold folk performances and other activities here.

Including Lv Zhenlin and Lv Dong, the leaders of Lvjia Village have considerable ambitions. With the current situation, they naturally want to go further. Although they dare not call the world or the first village in the country, they also want to make a fool of themselves. The name of East First Village.

   Even on Professor Fan's side, even the propaganda phrases were prepared - the first ancient village in Taidong, a sample of Jiangbei settlements!

   Back in the office, Li Wenyue asked Lu Dong who followed up: "Aren't you busy lately? Today is not the weekend, don't you go to the company?"

   "I'm looking for you to order." Lu Dong said: "The factory is in short supply. If you don't place an order earlier, you won't be able to get it. There are many people and units who need to visit during the Chinese New Year."

   Li Wenyue understands: "I don't usually burn incense and crave the Buddha's feet in a hurry, and then it won't work. When doing business, sometimes it's human feelings."

  Lu Dong was sitting on the sofa in the office. There was a coloring page on the coffee table in front of him. The traffic technical school recruited a driver training class and asked, "Wen Yue, are you going to learn to drive?"

Li Wenyue smiled, his nose wrinkled, his glasses slipped down, he pushed it quickly, and said, "The dividend is coming down this year. There are three people in my family, plus my dad and I's salary, there can be a lot, my dad told me to hurry up. Go learn to drive, and buy me a car when I graduate to find a wife."

   "It's better to buy a car." Lu Dong said this out of practicality, after all, Yuan Jing's family background was there.

   Li Wenyue said again: "I originally wanted to sign up and go to school as soon as possible, but I will be busy at the end of the year with a lot of things to do, so I will talk about it when the age is over."

   Lu Dong said: "Yuan Jing should go to practice after the new year, won't you tell your family?"

Although Li Wenyue did not graduate, his understanding of society and the world is far from that of ordinary college students. After a moment of silence, he said, "If you want to talk about it, you have to find an opportunity. When I think of these things, my heart beats. Graduating soon."

   He and Lu Dong are young, and they say whatever comes to their mind: "Would you like to be a matchmaker for the two of us?"

   Lu Dong spread his hands helplessly: "Whose matchmaker have you met in their early twenties?"

   Li Wenyue smiled: "Isn't this adding insurance?"

   Lu Dong said: "You go and ask Yuan Jing first, maybe it's very simple, you are a village official after graduation, and you are also in charge of a lot of things in the company."

  Li Wenyue nodded and said the business: "What do you order? Tell me directly, and I will give the order to the factory."

   Lu Dong was very familiar with the products in the factory, took out the detailed list in his pocket and handed it to Li Wenyue.

   An important festival like the Chinese New Year, human relationships are inevitable.

  Li Wenyue looked it over carefully, received it in his pocket, went to the factory in the afternoon, and handed it in.

  Lu Dong stood up and was about to leave. This floor just happened to see out the window, and a brand new van entered the team yard. Thinking of what happened before going to the magic capital, he asked, "The people who made trouble didn't make trouble again, did they?"

"No, I didn't come back that day." Li Wenyue said simply: "I heard the third grandpa say that the one who took away was detained for fifteen days, fined, and released on New Year's Day... Yes, their family Three people came here, and they came to the village to apologize, I was on a business trip that day, and it seems that the third grandpa didn’t embarrass them.”

   Lu Dong actually knew that those things couldn't really turn into extortion in these days.

   Although, in essence, those people are extortion.

   Li Wenyue said again: "I heard Red Star say that the **** who asked for money was beaten hard in the detention center. When he came to the brigade, everyone turned into a panda."

   Lu Dong nodded slightly: "That's fine, it can make me remember!"

   It has to be said that some people do not eat good food and are not afraid of the law, but they are afraid of people who are more vicious than him.

   There are still many people like this in society today.

  Lu Dong said casually: "With such an example, if anyone wants to come to our village to take advantage of it in the future, they have to think about it carefully."

Li Wenyue replied: "That family was quite capable of making trouble, and later went to the house of the man who moved the iron rod to make trouble. Because the person was seriously injured, the family couldn't do anything about it. In order to sign the letter of understanding, it seemed that they lost a lot of money. Be held criminally responsible."

   He shook his head: "Impulsion is the devil. Those who win lose money and lose their fortunes, and those who lose are lying in the hospital with injuries that they don't know how long they will take care of."

   Lu Dong recognized: "You can't do things impulsive."

   After chatting with Li Wenyue for a while, he went to the third grandfather Lv Zhenlin's office and got a piece of news that Lv Chun was collecting and sorting out the materials for the fight, and he would soon enter the French popularization night school in Lujia Village.

In the countryside, there are too many instances where such a few quarrels have turned into fights, and in the countryside, iron rakes, shovels, harpoons, hoes and other large bladed agricultural tools are always on hand, and people can easily touch them when they are in a hurry. use, the consequences are even more unimaginable.

   In a nearby township, it is not unheard of for the neighbors to fight on a street and kill someone with a shovel.
