Chapter 575 Not Worth Billions

After returning to Quannan Qingzhao, Lu Dong immediately mobilized personnel to start investment negotiations with Nine Villages. Lv Jianwu served as the legal advisor, and Xu Man was directly in charge. butt.

Wang Dong knew this industry very well, and 8:00 Online also wanted to invest in it. What Jiucun needed was precisely the funds to win the game agency rights and set up server rooms.

Since he served as the legal counsel of Lujiacun's company and Lu Dong's company, Lu Jianwu has completely turned into a business lawyer.

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

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

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

When Du Xiaobing came back, the company held a meeting of all shareholders. The dividend distribution for 2001 was still the same as that of the previous year, and 20% of the net profit would be distributed to all shareholders before the new year.

As of December 31, 2001, Lu's Catering has a total of 390 chain stores, and has 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 the 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 sanitation, coupled with 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 rate of Lu's catering is only 20%.

For example, Xinlong Hot Pot City in Quannan area, which was robbed of the hot pot leader by Lu's Hot Pot, has been expanding in the past two years. According to the news that Lu Dong got, their net profit rate can reach 35%.

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

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

Lu Dong's ideas and principles have never changed, and food safety is paramount.

From its establishment to the present, Lu's Catering has self-inspected standards for all ingredients and ingredients in markets in various regions, all of which are higher than the prescribed standards.

At the general meeting of shareholders, Lu Dong confirmed the goals for the new year of Lu's Catering, that is, 2002.

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

Reflected in the specific figures, the number of stores is at least doubled, and the annual revenue strives to reach 1 billion yuan.

Du Xiaobing privately told Lu Dong that Du Juan's electronics company, with less than a hundred employees, had sales of more than 1 billion yuan in 2001!

Of course, these envy are not enough, Du Juan got the general agent of many brands of Taidong early in the morning by virtue of his family relationship.

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

There is no doubt that Lu's Catering Company is already the leader in Taidong's local chain catering industry, and the first or second private enterprise in Qingzhao County.

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

Lu Dong told Song Na privately that those people in the chemical industry group are their role models—a model of high-profile work and low-key life.

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

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

In Lu's Village, Lu's food company and construction company are doing very well this year, and the village's dividends will be distributed to shareholders and villagers before the 15th day of the twelfth lunar month.

At the same time, Lu Dong passed the preparatory period inspection, formally took an oath to obtain the certificate according to the procedure, and became a member of the largest group in the world. The Lujia Village branch also had an official member.

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

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

On the east side on the right is the architectural rendering of the Lujia old village after the renovation is completed.

The old village of Lujia Village has completed all the survey and design, and it will start construction after the Chinese New Year.

Since Lujia Village is not a big village in the first place, the old village is mainly composed of two main streets, the north and the south, but the south side of the old street is blocked, so to go to the old street, one must turn from the market street, or go around from the north side. The old street after renovation will be Get through the south side and directly connect with the east-west main road at the head of the village.

The old street was converted into an ancient building folk street, and the market street was mainly used as a commercial route to restore the big market in Lujia Village, create a snack street, and make and sell handicrafts at the same time.

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, a complete ancient architectural village has been preserved...

It is planned to build more than a dozen ancient buildings such as ancient gates, ancient dams, ancient bridges, ancient posts, ancient roads and ancient temples.

Lujia Village Primary School and the original brigade’s courtyard were not demolished and rebuilt, which can be said to have saved a lot of effort.

In particular, the large stone stage and large screen wall in the former primary school are characteristic.

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

Including Lu Zhenlin and Lu Dong, the leaders of Lujia Village have considerable ambitions. With the current situation, they naturally want to go further. The name of East First Village.

Even on Professor Fan's side, even the promotional language has been prepared - Taidong's No. 1 Ancient Village, Jiangbei Settlement Specimen!

Back in the office, Li Wenyue asked Lu Dong who followed him: "Are you busy recently? Today is not the weekend, so you don't want to go to the company?"

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

Li Wenyue understood: "Usually, if you don't burn incense and rush to hug Buddha's feet, it won't work at that time. When you do business, sometimes you do it because of human feelings."

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

Li Wenyue smiled, wrinkled his nose, and slid down his glasses. He quickly pushed them and said, "This year, the dividends will come down. There are three people in my family, plus my and my dad's salary, there will be a lot. My dad told me to hurry up." Go learn to drive, and when you graduate and find a wife, buy me a car."

"It's also good to buy a car." Lu Dong said this out of reality, after all, Yuan Jing's family background is there.

Li Wenyue said again: "At first, I wanted to sign up and go to school as soon as possible. At the end of the year, I get busy and have a lot of things. I will talk about it when I am young."

Lu Dong said: "Yuan Jing should go to practice after the Chinese New Year, why don't you tell the family?"

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

He and Lu Dong were friends, so they said whatever came to mind: "Why don't you act as a matchmaker for us?"

Lu Dong spread his hands helplessly: "Which matchmaker have you met who is in his early twenties?"

Li Wenyue smiled: "Isn't this an insurance policy?"

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

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

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

During an important festival like the Chinese New Year, human relations are inevitable.

Li Wenyue looked it over carefully, put it in his pocket, and just handed it in when he went to the factory in the afternoon.

Lu Dong stood up and was about to leave. This floor happened to be able to see out of the window. A brand-new van entered the courtyard of the brigade. Thinking about what happened before going to Shanghai, he asked, "The troublemakers didn't come here again, did they?"

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

In fact, Lu Dong also knew that in this day and age, it would be impossible for those things to turn into extortion.

Although in essence, those people are extorting money.

Li Wenyue continued: "I heard from Hong Xing that the bastard who asked for money was beaten so badly in the detention center. When he came to the brigade, he turned into a panda."

Lu Dong nodded slightly: "That's good, I can have a longer memory!"

It has to be said that some people don't 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 such people in society today.

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

Li Wenyue continued: "That family was quite capable of making trouble, and then they went to the house of the man who moved the iron rod to make trouble, because the person was seriously injured, the family had no choice but to pay a lot of money for signing the letter of understanding, otherwise it would be impossible Be held criminally responsible."

He shook his head: "Impulse is the devil. Those who win lose money and go bankrupt, and those who lose lie in the hospital with injuries that don't know how long."

Lu Dong agreed: "You can't do things impulsively."

After chatting with Li Wenyue for a while, he went to the third grandfather Lu Zhenlin's office and got a piece of news that Lu Chun was collecting and sorting out materials about the waste collection and fighting, and he would soon enter the Lujia Village's Law-enhancing Night School.

In the countryside, there are too many cases where such a few quarrels turned into fights, and the iron rakes, shovels, harpoons, and hoes and other large-scale sharpening agricultural tools in the countryside are all on hand, and people can touch them when they are in a hurry. Use, the consequences are even more unimaginable.

In nearby villages and towns, it is not uncommon for neighbors to fight in a street, and a shovel kills someone.
