Before 2004, China's land approval process was generally relatively relaxed. At that time, it was also easy for companies to obtain land. Basically, if I invested in building a factory, I would definitely get the land.

At that time, there were not many cases of land use rights being transferred through bidding or auction. Most of the land use rights were transferred through bidding in popular areas of big cities. In most small and medium-sized cities, land use rights were transferred through agreements. Transfer land use rights.

Until April 2004, the Ministry of Land and Resources and the Ministry of Supervision jointly issued the "Notice on Continuing Law Enforcement and Supervision of the Bidding, Auction, Listing and Transfer of Commercial Land Use Rights", requiring that from August 31, 2004, all commercial land use rights All land must be sold through public bidding.

That is to say, from August 31, 2004, regions are no longer allowed to transfer commercial state-owned land use rights by agreement, and the practice of transferring commercial land by agreement has been officially stopped.

This was also called the "8.31 deadline". Later generations of public opinion believed that this was China's "agrarian revolution in the real estate industry" and an important watershed in China's real estate industry.

The implementation of this policy means that land reserves are obtained from non-market prices, and land reserves are obtained through open market bidding. It also means that the income belongs to the people, and the land owners obtain land income and convert it into capital to obtain land income.

Since then, real estate developers have ushered in an era of excess profits. As a result, small and medium-sized real estate developers have had an era of overtaking in corners. Established companies in the real estate industry such as Vanke have also ushered in challengers one after another. .

In 2000, public bidding for land transfer rights was still relatively rare in small and medium-sized cities. If Li Weidong hadn't interfered, Bai Duner's land would have been directly awarded to the heavy machinery factory.

The auction still attracted a lot of participants, but most of them came to join in the fun. Only a few bidders were interested in Bai Duner's land and planned to buy it to invest in building a factory.

There are no companies specializing in auctions in N-tier cities like Qinghe, so the auctioneers are specially invited from big cities.

I saw the auctioneer holding a small hammer and constantly bidding.

"The current price is 66 million. Is there anything higher than 66 million? Is there anything higher than 66 million?"

"No. 7, bidder No. 7 bid 66.5 million! The current price is 66.5 million, 66.5 million!"

Li Weidong put down the small number 7 sign and smiled at Zhang Tao, who was not far away.

Zhang Tao raised the small card in his hand without hesitation.

"No. 1, bidder No. 1 bids 67 million!"

"No. 7, bidder No. 7 raised his sign again, 67.5 million!"

The auctioneer said and looked directly at Zhang Tao.

As expected, Zhang Tao raised his sign again.

"68 million! The price of Landmark No. 5 has been answered at 68 million. Is there any price higher than 68 million? Is there any price higher than 68 million?"

Li Weidong once again raised the small card No. 7.

"It's Mr. No. 7 again, 68.5 million! The current price is 68.5 million!"

Zhang Tao snorted coldly, raised the small sign No. 1 again, and said at the same time, "I offer 70 million!"

"70 million! Mr. No. 1 bids 70 million! The current price is 70 million! Is there anything higher than 70 million? Is there anything higher than 70 million?"

The auctioneer said, slowly raising the hammer and shouting loudly: "70 million for the first time! 7000 for the first time!"

"71 million!" Li Weidong said calmly.

"It's Mr. No. 7 again. Mr. No. 7 offers 71 million! 71 million!"

Before the auctioneer could say "71 million for the first time", Zhang Tao immediately increased the price and said: "72 million!"

"It's already 72 million. The current price is 72 million! Mr. No. 1 bids 72 million. Mr. No. 7, do you want to continue to increase the price to 71.5 million?"

There were only two people left in the competition, Li Weidong and Zhang Tao, so the auctioneer asked Li Weidong directly.

Li Weidong pretended to discuss a few words with Ding Youliang next to him, and then raised his sign again.

"Okay, Mr. No. 7 bids 71.5 million!"

"72 million!" Zhang Tao said immediately.

"72 million! Mr. No. 1 bids 72 million! Does Mr. No. 7 continue to increase the bid?" the auctioneer then asked.

Li Weidong began to pretend to discuss with Ding Youliang again, but this time the discussion was a bit long.

"72 million for the first time!"

"72 million for the second time!"

The auctioneer shouted a second time at the right moment.

At this moment, Li Weidong timely called out an offer of 72.5 million.

"This Li Weidong, you really can't get along with me!" Zhang Tao snorted coldly, looked at Li Weidong fiercely, and then raised the small sign No. 1.

"80 million for the third time! Deal!" The hammer in the auctioneer's hand fell, making a crisp sound.

Then the auctioneer turned into a New Year's greeting and said, "Congratulations to Mr. No. 1, for acquiring Land No. 5 at a price of 80 million!"

However, there was no hint of joy on Zhang Tao's face.

The city granted 200 acres of land to a heavy machinery factory. The original land transfer price was 60 million, with an average of 300,000 per acre. This is already a relatively high price.

However, after the auction, the heavy machinery factory spent 80 million to acquire the land that could have been purchased for 60 million, which was 20 million more than before.

On average, the price of 400,000 per acre can be regarded as the king of land in a place like Qinghe!

In 2000, the average price of land in key domestic cities was about 950 yuan per square meter, equivalent to 6.33 million yuan per mu.

And this price is not only for industrial land, but also includes a large amount of residential land and commercial land. The price of residential land and commercial land is definitely much higher than that of industrial land, which means that industrial land must be lower than this average price.

This is still statistical data for key cities. The economic level of key cities is generally relatively high, and the price of land transfer is naturally higher.

Qinghe is just an ordinary city, and the price of land transfer fees does not meet the standards of key cities. 400,000 per acre of industrial land, and it's still in a rural area, it's almost like robbing money.

The subordinate came close to Zhang Tao's ear and whispered: "Director, this land was originally planned to cost 60 million, but now it has cost 80 million, which has exceeded 20 million. Take over our budget for building and moving the factory. , maybe it’s not enough!”

Obtaining land use rights is only the first step. Next, we need to build factories, office buildings and other facilities, all of which cost money. After all, it is a large factory with thousands of people, and the canteen alone would take up a whole road.

After the project is completed, it needs to be relocated, and the equipment needs to be transported, installed and debugged, which is another huge expense.

The 200 million yuan that Zhang Tao asked for from Volvo had already been budgeted accordingly. Now just the first step of acquiring the land has cost an extra 20 million yuan. The subsequent construction and relocation of the factory may not be very easy. enough.

Zhang Tao curled his lips in disdain at this, and said: "What are you afraid of? I just spent an extra 20 million! Anyway, we have Volvo as our backer. If the money is not enough, we can ask Volvo for it!"

At this time, Li Weidong walked over with a smile: "Director Zhang, congratulations, you have got a piece of Feng Shui treasure land! With such a piece of land, Director Zhang will be able to make great achievements in the future!"

"I'd like to lend you some good advice!" Zhang Taopi said with a smile.

Zhang Tao had already seen that Li Weidong was here to cause trouble. If Li Weidong hadn't kept raising the price, Zhang Tao would not have spent an extra 20 million to win the Baidun'er land.

However, when Li Weidong raised the price, Zhang Tao did not dare not follow up. He was also worried that Li Weidong had really won the land.

At that time, the heavy machinery factory will have no choice but to find another factory location. Not to mention the time required for research, planning, and land acquisition, the new factory director will definitely not have as good a location as Bai Dun'er.

The current heavy machinery factory has ceased production. They are still waiting to build a factory at a new site and resume production as soon as possible. If they find a new site, it will take another year and a half, and the factory will probably be exhausted.

Li Weidong did not continue to stimulate Zhang Tao. He pretended to congratulate him and turned around to leave. Immediately afterwards, the staff of the Land Bureau also came forward to congratulate him, but Zhang Tao always felt that the other person's expression seemed to be looking at someone who had been taken advantage of.

For 400,000 yuan per acre to buy land, Zhang Tao was indeed taken advantage of!

After the land was purchased, it was natural to proceed with construction. The Heavy Machinery Factory completed the planning and design of the new factory area as quickly as possible, and then invested in the construction of the new factory.

At the same time, Zhang Tao did not forget to demand payment from Volvo. He went to Beijing and found Carlsson, the head of Volvo in China.

"Mr. Carlsson, of the 200 million you promised before, only 100 million has been received. This 100 million has been spent. I hope you can allocate the remaining 100 million as soon as possible," Zhang Tao said.

The translator told Carlson what Zhang Tao said, and Carlson suddenly looked surprised.

"You spent all 100 million yuan so quickly? That's 100 million yuan. Ordinary Chinese people can't earn 100 million yuan even if they work for 10,000 years!"

Karlsson is not exaggerating. Based on the average salary level in 2000, ordinary Chinese people would not earn 100 million after working for 10,000 years.

Zhang Tao then explained: "Mr. Carlsson, of the 100 million yuan, 80 million yuan was used to purchase land, and then another 2.5 million yuan was spent on the planning and design of the new factory area.

In addition, it will cost a lot of money to build a new factory. We have to hire workers to do the construction, and we also need to purchase various building materials such as steel bars, cement, and wall tiles, which all cost money.

You know that when buying something, the more you buy, the cheaper the unit price is. Nowadays, for such a huge factory, it is more cost-effective to purchase construction raw materials on a large scale at one time, and you can get more discounts. "

Zhang Tao said, took out a document, handed it to Carlsson, and then said: "Mr. Carlsson, this is the construction budget of the new factory. Please take a look."

Carlson took the document, read half of it hastily, and asked: "The budget is 136 million people? Including the 80 million yuan for land purchase, the total is 216 million, which has exceeded the 200 million yuan budget!"

"It's just a little bit more." Zhang Tao said with a smile.

Carlsson snorted coldly: "16 million yuan, that's a little bit. When converted into U.S. dollars, it's close to 2 million. In Sweden, the average family can't earn 2 million U.S. dollars!"

In 2000, Sweden's per capita income was about $15,000. If you calculate it this way, the average family will really not earn 2 million US dollars in a lifetime.

Don't think that 15,000 US dollars is very small. At that time, the income of Germans was not as good as that of Sweden, and the per capita annual income in the United States was only 17,000 US dollars.

"This budget must be streamlined!" Carlson snorted coldly.

"Yes, I'll find a way to streamline the budget!" Zhang Tao smiled apologetically, but secretly said in his heart: "Judge the budget? I haven't included the cost of relocating the factory yet!"

Just listen to Zhang Tao continue to say; "Mr. Carlsson, it is one thing to streamline the budget, but it is another thing to get the remaining 100 million funds as soon as possible. We have hired a large number of workers. If there is no funds, the construction site Work is about to stop.

After all, the earlier the factory is built, the earlier it will be profitable, and Volvo will be able to receive returns on its investment earlier! "

In order to build the new factory as soon as possible, Carlsson allocated the remaining 100 million funds to the account of the heavy machinery factory.

Although Zhang Tao looked for various reasons when he asked for money, Carlson had not yet expired in terms of the construction of the new factory. At this time, Bai Dun'er had already invested in the construction of the new factory.

The construction industry requires manpower. A project as large as a heavy machinery factory naturally attracts many migrant workers from the surrounding area to work, and hundreds of large and small contractors also came.

On a construction site, Lao Zhang was driving a loader to dig the foundation for the workshop.

For general low-rise buildings, the foundation does not need to be dug very deep, so a loader can also do the job, and the loader's bucket is larger and the movement is more flexible. This shallower foundation excavation is actually more efficient than an excavator.

The loader shoveled down, dug up the ground, then shoveled the soil and transported it to the side.

The bucket bent, and the soil spread to the open space next to it. Lao Zhang drove the loader to turn around, and then went to dig the foundation.

However, an exclamation sounded from the side.

"Look, what is that?"

"It looks like a skull!"

Lao Zhang looked along the sound and found that there was something similar to a human skull in the place where he had just shoveled it!

Lao Zhang was immediately startled: "Dear boy, didn't I dig up someone's ancestral grave?"

Lao Zhang quickly stepped off the excavator to confirm and found that in addition to the skull, there were also some bones from other parts.

"It's so unlucky. There was a cemetery here before, why didn't you say something! Is this family really going to move their ancestors away?" Lao Zhang snorted coldly.

"There used to be no graveyards here. They are probably old graves that have been left unclaimed! Without children and grandchildren for a long time, the land became flat." said an elderly migrant worker next to him.

"You can't continue this job, call the police station!" Lao Zhang opened his mouth and said.

When something like this happens, naturally you can't continue digging. Even if it is an old unclaimed grave, it is immoral to touch other people's bones.

The old migrant worker said: "After all, we have moved someone else's place. We will go to the nearby place to buy a few sticks of incense and a few knives of yellow paper. We will pay our respects first so that our ancestors will not be angry and cause trouble for us in the future. !”

Rural people are still quite superstitious.

So some people called the police, and some people went to buy incense and paper.

After a while, the police and people from the village committee arrived at the scene.

The police looked at the condition of the bones and found that they had not been buried in recent decades, ruling out the possibility of a criminal case.

As for whose ancestor this skeleton belongs to, there is no way to verify it.

Everyone had no choice but to pick up shovels and plan to dig out the skeleton and then find another place to bury it.

Lao Zhang also picked up the shovel and went to help.

When the shovel went down, Lao Zhang felt as if he had shoveled something.

Then Lao Zhang pried open the soil, revealing something green and white.

Lao Zhang subconsciously wiped the dirt on it and found that it turned out to be a piece of porcelain.

"Look, I dug out a piece of porcelain!" Lao Zhang immediately shouted.

"Is it a burial object?" A person next to him said immediately.

"The skeleton is quite old. Could it be that the funerary objects are antiques?" Another person said.

"Did you find an antique?" The news spread quickly.

"Don't move!" The police officer rushed over as fast as he could, and then shouted loudly: "Stop digging! There may be cultural relics down here, don't destroy the cultural relics!"
