Chapter 239: Backstabbing
On October 28, good news came from Yan Jun. After some contact and negotiation, Yan Jun and Pinggang County Investment and Merchants Bureau had basically reached an agreement. As long as "Luo Ji" invested more than 10 million in Pinggang County within three years, the Merchants Bureau will negotiate with the county government to reduce taxes for "Luo Ji" for two years and open a door to convenience for it.
Not only that, the county government also promised that once the hypermarket was put into use, the government was also responsible for helping Luo Ji coordinate loans. Pinggang County gave a lot of favorable measures to attract investment and develop the economy.
Pinggang County has slow economic development among the five counties in Fengyuan and has no natural advantages. In order to develop the economy, investment promotion has always been the top priority in work. "Luo Ji" takes the initiative to invest, so how could the government refuse? It will only strongly support it.
"Luo Ji" promised to invest 10 million yuan. In 1995, for a county, it was not small for such a businessman to be able to attract 10 million yuan. In later generations, 10 million yuan is definitely worth 100 million yuan. Such funds are not small in any era, so the main county in Pinggang still attaches great importance to the investment of "Luo Ji".
The investment in three years exceeds 10 million. Although this cake is a bit big, the hot pot restaurant in Luoji's hypermarket and hot pot restaurant will be listed in Pinggang County at the same time. The first batch of investments can reach 5 million. It is no problem to reach 10 million in the next three years.
Yan Jun sent the news back, and Luo Li immediately communicated and negotiated with Li Guozhong about the loan. "Luo Ji" sent the report half a month ago and was waiting for the bank to lend money.
Yan Jun has already negotiated with Xinhua Bookstore in Pinggang County. The bookstore has begun to relocate. As long as the funds are in place, the hypermarket will begin to be officially decorated. In order to express the sincerity of "Luo Ji" to Pinggang County, the "Luo Ji Hot Pot Restaurant" has selected an address in Pinggang County. Li Jie and the decoration team have gone over and started to decorate.
According to the previous decoration speed, the "Luoji Hot Pot Restaurant" can usually be officially renovated in one month. Although the hypermarket has not started to renovate, the relevant recruitment advertisements and publicity have been launched. The focus is on the suppliers. Before the decoration has begun, Yan Jun has begun to negotiate with the suppliers in the provincial capital. Everything is ready, but the east wind is not available.
Li Guozhong also gave news that the new president has agreed to a loan of 3 million yuan for "Luo Ji". The relevant approval has been submitted, and it is estimated that the loan will be completed in one month.
Li Guozhong gave him a reassurance, and Yan Jun immediately organized an engineering team to decorate the hypermarket. The decoration raw materials of "Luo Ji" did not require payment immediately, because with the decoration foundation of several stores, Li Jie had a good relationship with several raw material manufacturers and was a big customer, so the early decoration did not cost a penny, so the material manufacturer provided them with raw materials for free until the hypermarket was officially opened, which gave them enough time to buffer.
Luo Li calculated that it took two months to decorate the hypermarket, which was just around the corner of the year. As long as you operate it well, you can make a lot of money at this peak at the end of the year, so that he can give him buffer time and allow him to plan for the next step of development.
Don’t underestimate a few counties, cities and districts. If you can occupy all counties, cities and districts and start from catering and retail at the same time, it will be equivalent to arranging several ATMs in Fengyuan.
"Luo Ji" has preconceived ideas. As long as the foundation is laid, there will be no second hypermarket in counties and districts like this with only a hundred thousand people. Because the market is so big, no investor can go to such a small place to compete. So what Luo Li wants to fight is the time difference. He will find the first pot of gold while the industry is ready to be developed.
On November 20, the Fengyuan store of "Luoji Beef Noodles" and "Luoji Malatang" opened at the same time. The two fast food restaurants were crowded as soon as they opened. The decoration style and service of the new store continued to continue the previous style of "Luoji". It was difficult not to attract people.
"Luo Ji" has formed its own golden sign in Fengyuan. "Luo Ji Hot Pot Restaurant" has established its leading position in Fengyuan's "hot pot" catering industry in just a few months. In Fengyuan, eating hot pot and going to Luo Ji has become a common feature.
"Luoji Beef Noodles" and "Luoji Malatang" provide citizens with two kinds of fast food, which makes citizens look at "Luoji". In fact, these are not the key points, but the "Luoji" style is praised. Whether it is decoration style, service standards, and industry standards, they are all far beyond similar merchants, which is also the reason why "Luoji" can quickly open up the market.
The popularity of the new store can no longer arouse much interest from Luo Li. He is now focusing on the hypermarkets in Pinggang County.
It was almost a month before the bank's loan had not yet been completed, and the payments in the hypermarket had to be paid in part. Yan Jun gave a specific number, which would be at least one million.
In November, all the operating income of the "Luoji Hot Pot Restaurant" was invested in the new store, the new store in the provincial capital, the new store in Fengyuan, and the new store in Pinggang County. The big and small store almost ate all the sales in November. Luoli, the funds needed by the hypermarket, were waiting for the bank.
He called Li Guozhong, and Li Guozhong discussed with the president again. The news was quickly fed back, and the head office could apply for a loan in at most three days.
Only then did Luo Li feel relieved and call Yan Jun, so that he could feel at ease to distribute the goods. Whoever is short of whom, and call him as soon as possible when the money comes down.
But what surprised Luo Li was that three days later, when he went to the bank to find Li Guozhong, Li Guozhong actually told him that their president had cut off the money.
Luo Li closed the door of Li Guozhong's office and asked with a gloomy face: "Uncle Li, what's going on? Didn't you agree to be able to lend money today? Why didn't you let it go?"
Li Guozhong was also depressed. He whispered: "I don't know much about the specific reason. I went to see the president in the morning, and his attitude changed a lot. He said that the review of "Luo Ji" did not meet the standards, and there were still several items to be reviewed again. In addition, such a large amount of funds, if you don't review it clearly, it will have a great impact..."
"It's all nonsense!" Luo Li couldn't help but swear, "To put it bluntly, I just found a reason not to lend money. Uncle Li, didn't that money be given to him?"
Li Guozhong opened the drawer, which contained a dozen money wrapped in newspapers. He smiled bitterly and said, "I returned it to me in the morning!"
Luo Li realized that something was wrong. He could still spit out what he had eaten? Either there was better food or someone had done something, but if the money could not be borrowed, the hypermarket would have to stop.
Yan Jun had to hand over the money next week. If it could not be handed over, the compensation for "Luo Ji" would not be a small matter. Losing money is a small matter. The key reputation is the key. Once the reputation is damaged, it is not a problem that money can solve.
At this time, the bank came here, and he wanted to block him. Luo Li slapped him on the table, "I'm paralyzed, I'm stuck at this time, the special code, do you want to die?"
Li Guozhong quickly advised: "Luo Li, don't be anxious first, this matter is slow. I'll ask what's going on. It's the first time I've dealt with him in the new president. Logically, he shouldn't be stuck. We don't lack him in all aspects! So, don't be impulsive, there must be problems here."
Luo Li narrowed his eyes and said, "Uncle Li, hurry up and find out, this matter cannot be delayed!" This guy left his words and turned around and left. Luo Li firmly believed that someone must be trying to mess with him behind his back.
He thought of Zhang Yuan at the first time. Since he defeated Li Changan and Qu Song last time, Zhang Yuan has been calm for almost a month. Luo Li didn't believe that Zhang Yuan had to endure it.
Now that this incident happens, it’s probably Zhang Yuan is making a fool of himself. He is sure to pinch his neck and numb it. It’s good if I didn’t cause trouble for you. Once again, I really think I’m a sick cat and won’t fight back?
Luo Li clenched his fists. If Zhang Yuan stabbed him in the back this time, he would definitely not let him go!
