Chapter 117: Investigating Heyang

The location selection of the branch in Heyang County is a very serious matter.

Li Yi knew that the famous Lishan Scenic Area in Heyang County was later rated as a 5A scenic area by the country. There are many hotels, inns, restaurants, etc. around it. What are these places lacking?

Of course, it is home appliances!

Refrigerators, air conditioners, washing machines, and televisions can all have very broad development prospects in this place!

Moreover, the development of farmhouses in Heyang County is also good now. Many rich people like this kind of field life. Therefore, in the eyes of many other businesses, the small county town that was originally useless is actually very wealthy for every household.

However, there were no high-tech devices such as mobile phones and computers during this period, and no one was willing to spend money to play GG on TV, so the reputation of Heyang County did not reach the point where everyone knew it.

And this is where Li Yi's advantage lies.

Because although Li Yi has no way to make Heyang County a well-known county town, he can let home appliances enter the county town!

After making up his mind, Li Yi decided to go to Heyang County and open a branch there.

This time, Li Yi decided to go alone!

Wei Sanpao was not there, Xiaowu and others were busy every day, and Xu Qingnan had to take care of the clothing store and the home appliance city at the same time, and he was too busy. Naturally, Li Yi had to go alone.

Heyang County is not far from Jiangcheng, which is about 50 kilometers away. It can be reached quickly by bus.

Feeling the unique fresh air of the small county, Li Yi's mood seemed to be relieved a lot.

As soon as he got off the car, Li Yi noticed a hotel.

The name of the hotel is very simple, it is called the passenger hotel!

While rejecting the people who solicited customers, Li Yi began to look at the scenery of the county.

Surrounded by mountains on three sides and facing the water on one side, it is indeed a good place. No wonder it was rated as a 5A scenic spot.

Moreover, the Lishan Scenic Area in the north is a place that even gods would admire. Unfortunately, not many people in this era could afford cameras, so it was not until after the millennium that this town gradually appeared in the sight of all Longguo people.

But it’s good that I have seized the opportunity after all. After all, this is also a tourist area in the future!

Li Yi stopped a one-yuan car on the side of the road and sat in the co-pilot seat.

The one-yuan car can be regarded as an early taxi. There is also a name called "Mian Di" because these cars are all vans. Until more than ten years later, such cars still appeared in some county towns.

In fact, all vans are very cheap and convenient, but later due to the emergence of taxis, this type of vehicle was slowly eliminated.

"Young man, is this your first time in Heyang?"

"Where are you going?"

Li Yi glanced at the map in the car, pointed in the direction of Lishan Scenic Area, and said:

"Let's go to the scenic area. I've heard that this place has good feng shui."

The driver nodded and said with a smile:

"Young man, you have good vision! We in Heyang rely on Lishan Scenic Area for our livelihood!"

While the two were talking, the driver had already stepped on the accelerator and drove towards the scenic area.

While enjoying the scenery along the way in the car, Li Yi suddenly asked: "Master, do you have any home appliance mall or something like that?"

The driver sighed and replied: "Young man, I can tell you are from Jiangcheng, right?"

"In our small county, everyone can eat and wear warm clothes, and everything is pretty good. There are not even a few large-scale shopping malls. Even if you make a lot of money, you have to go to the city more than 50 kilometers away to buy things, which is simply killing you!"

"Some people have made money and moved to the county town, saying that it is inconvenient to live here. There is a family who runs a hotel. They hired people to look after the store here and moved to Jiangcheng. Now they live a chic life!"

When Li Yi heard the driver's words, his eyes lit up!

There is not even a decent shopping mall?

Isn't this a business opportunity?

It seems that not only branches of home appliance malls can be located here, but even clothing stores can!

And maybe you can make a lot of money in this place!

Apart from other things, tourists who can travel freely these days are basically all rich people!

These people have never had any concept of money, and it is precisely for this reason that the bosses around the scenic area are richer than each other.

The van slowly stopped at the entrance of the scenic area. After Li Yi handed the driver the taxi fare, he opened the door and got out of the car.

Just standing at the entrance of the scenic area, Li Yi immediately found a store.

This store looks like an ordinary small store, but when Li Yi's eyes were on the store shelves, he was stunned!

My goodness, the mineral water here costs 1.5 yuan a bottle!

Just seeing such a bottle of mineral water, Li Yi mistakenly thought that he had returned to thirty years later!

This joke is not ordinary. It seems that the economic foundation of this place is much richer than Li Yi expected!

Li Yi coughed lightly, and then walked along the long trail into the scenic area.

Li Yi's goal was to take a tour around the scenic area, look at the distribution of surrounding inns, guesthouses, and restaurants, and then select a suitable location to open a branch of the home appliance city and clothing store.

After walking along the path of the scenic area, Li Yi had a clear idea in his mind.

In this whole scenic area, there are two hotels, two guesthouses, three guesthouses, and five restaurants. Among them, the two hotels with the highest specifications have been opened in this county for some years. It is precisely because of this reason that the home appliances in the hotels are obviously a bit old.

Other hotels and guesthouses are in a similar situation. There are even no refrigerators or TVs in the hotels, which surprised Li Yi.

In Li Yi's opinion, the owner of this hotel should be very business-minded. After all, other guesthouses and hotels have color TVs!

Only in this way can the price be set higher!

It is the easiest to make money near tourist areas. This is an eternal truth. Li Yi naturally knows it in his mind.

For the location of the home appliance city branch, Li Yi took a fancy to a two-story building that had been desolate for a long time. In front of the door of the building, there was a yellowed paper with the words "rental or transfer" and a number on it, which looked like a string of contact information.

Li Yi wrote down the contact information and suddenly saw the second half of the page. There was an address on it, which should be the residential address of the owner of the small building.

Li Yi also wrote down this address and planned to go directly to talk to the owner of the building.
