Xiao Lingyu saw an opportunity with these tourists visiting Taoyuan Village.

Many things in Taoyuan Village could become special features to draw in visitors. For example, the peach blossoms all over the village, the beautiful mountains and rivers, as well as the special crops in the Taoyuan village, such as vegetables, chicken and duck eggs, and even Mother Xiao’s cooking skills, were all great ideas for tourism development.

However, developing tourism wouldn’t be as simple as investing money. Moreover, this involved many places that belonged to Taoyuan Village. Xiao Lingyu didn’t have the money or the intention to remove the villagers.

Therefore, she had to find another way. She thought of getting the whole village to join in the investment, and the whole village would receive dividends.

She didn’t need them to provide any money. But instead, she required them to invest with their land.

As for the actual funds required to build the amenities, Xiao Lingyu had to think of a way on her own.

Xiao Lingyu’s main source of income now was the vegetables, peanut oil, and tofu products that were constantly being sold. Other than that, there were other bits and pieces of income that could be ignored, for example, the rental fees of the few houses that were being rented out.

Xiao Lingyu planned to build an authentic tourist destination. She wouldn’t need to move the villagers or demolish the natural environment. This saved her a lot of money. Xiao Lingyu believed she could scrape together the remaining expenses. Of course, she didn’t want to use Gong Tianhao’s financial resources.

After Xiao Lingyu had planned everything, she had a family meeting. The Xiao family members were obviously shocked.

“Yu ‘Er, isn’t this project a bit too big? Will it cost a lot of money?” Grandpa Xiao asked. She had already invested a lot of money in her shop, her company, and all kinds of contracts. It could be said that she was now heavily in debt.

She would need more money to do this thing. Xiao Lingyu said, “I don’t think we need too much money. I calculated that we need about eight million to ten million.”

“Ah, eight million to ten million?” The Xiao family members opened their mouths in surprise and said in disbelief, “This… This much?”

Xiao Lingyu shook her head and said with a smile, “No, this is already the lowest cost I’ve estimated.”

“Huh?” The Xiao family didn’t quite understand.

Xiao Lingyu said, “Because I plan to let the entire village invest in the development. When we make money in the future, they will receive dividends. That way, we’ll save on land lease and demolition fees.

“This 8 million to 10 million is mainly used for various security measures, tools and equipment, and labor costs.”

Father Xiao thought for a moment and said, “It’s just that there are 186 households in the peach blossom village. Who knows how many people are willing to invest like this? You know that more people would like to get money outright.”

This was a big problem.

For the villagers, their worldview was small. They were more inclined to have money in their hands. It made them feel more secure. Plus, the land rental and resettlement fees would be a large amount. Some of the villagers would be tempted by the money even if they had to move.

Xiao Lingyu thought for a moment and said, “We still have to discuss this with the village chief and the village officials. Then we’ll try our best to persuade the villagers. If there are villagers who prefer to take the money and move, then we can only oblige. But in the future, the profits of Taoyuan Village will have nothing to do with them.”

If the development were good, then there would be a steady stream of income in the future. The annual dividends would be higher than the rental and resettlement fees. Of course, this required thinking skills from the villagers.

Eldest Uncle Xiao chimed in from the side, “Then we’ll discuss it with the village chief and a few village officials. We’ll see how things go first.”

The others chimed in, “Okay, let’s see how things go first.”

“But Yu ‘Er, if most of the villagers don’t agree, then the investment fee will be more than ten million, right?” Fourth Uncle Xiao asked sharply.

Xiao Lingyu nodded and said, “That’s true. But it doesn’t matter. If most of them don’t agree, I’ll just give them the rent and resettlement fee.”

“But Yu ‘Er, if that’s the case, where will our money come from?” Third Uncle Xiao asked in puzzlement.

Xiao Lingyu smiled and said, “We can find an outside investor.” However, if they did that, the initiative might not be in Xiao Lingyu’s hands anymore. She wouldn’t be fully in charge of the development of Taoyuan Village.

Therefore, unless it was absolutely necessary, Xiao Lingyu would never give up the initiative.

At worst, she could just wait until she had the money in her hands before starting the development.

Thinking of this, Xiao Lingyu said, “If it’s not possible to find an investor, we can wait. After we have enough funds, we can start again.”

The Xiao family was stunned at first, then they smiled helplessly and said, “Yu ‘Er, no matter what, we will support your decision.” Xiao Lingyu had succeeded no matter what she did.

Even if she failed this time, at most, everyone would help her. Eventually, she’d rise again.

At that moment, no one in the Xiao Family had considered the man Xiao Lingyu had married. With a single word from Xiao Lingyu, Old Master Gong would instantly give her all the funds she needed. She would get more than ten million.

However, to the Xiao Family, Xiao Lingyu had married Gong Tianhao, the man, and not the billionaire.

Since she was starting her own business, she had to rely on herself, and the Xiao Family would support her.
