Cosma Empire

Chapter 429

The fall of Coles has made many people realize that the legacy of the railway tycoon will be divided in the war between his children and relatives. The “railway empire” will no longer be a piece of iron, and many capital forces are already ready to move, etc. Coles was sure that he couldn’t wake up, that is, they sat at the table and tied a napkin, picked up the knife and fork, and elegantly and civilizedly divided the Coles heritage.

At the same time, some of the smaller railway contractors also found Durin, who hoped to take over the construction rights of the two railways. After all, tens of millions or more of the projects could bring them too much. Profit, and influence.

Even the builders on the Confederation side are in Otis, intending to build the railway.

In the face of these intended contractors, Durin brings them together to discuss who will leave and who will leave.

There is no doubt that the Otis City Hall is temporarily unable to come up with the full cost of building the railway. Durin asked some professionals that the estimated cost of the two railways to Durin is about two 25 million to 30 million. There are other requirements for the railway, such as being able to carry a heavier steam locomotive or wanting the steam locomotive to run faster, and the cost will increase substantially.

Building a railroad that is relatively high in Western World’s highest level requires a minimum of 40 million or so, so Coles’s offer was not accurate, or there were other tricks in it.

Even 30 million requires Otis City’s at least one year’s revenue to support the construction costs of the two railways, so Durin told all the contractors who planned to take over the project, they need to fund. In the initial stage, it may be necessary to advance about 10 million to 15 million, which will be returned monthly by the City Hall in the following 18 months.

There is such a condition that the representatives of some contractors are not so good on their faces. More than 10 million yuan is enough to make many big capitalists feel hurt, not to mention the weak people who have been stepped on by Coles. ?

The representative of the contractor from the western part of the empire sighed and asked: “Mr. Mayor, have you considered lending to the bank or the Chamber of Commerce? I believe that both the central bank and the general meeting will be happy to give you money. Support, this is something that makes sense to everyone.” He said that nothing is too much financial pressure, workers’ wages, material settlement and various other expenses, if Otis City Hall If the cost of the reimbursement cannot be returned on time, the company may close down.

These capitalists never pin their hopes on how trustworthy their partners are, especially for official partners, who are even more distrustful.

In case Otis City really has no money on finance, can you sue Otis City Hall? Even if the prosecution is useful? The mayor patted his ass and the successor did not recognize the money. In the end, it is very likely that he will be able to climb in and out.

Most people have expressed understanding and approval for what the representative said. This is not a one or two million, but more than 10 million. The risk is too great.

“Do you have any suggestions?”, the durd indifferent expression of nodded, then looked towards sitting in the last contractor from Confederation, only he has been smiling.

The guy named Klin stood up and expressed his respect to Durin. His voice was very loud and thorough, giving him a very uplifting feeling.

“Respected Mayor of Otis, and representatives of the business representatives of Star Empire, everyone. As you know, I am from Confederation, a large engineering company of Confederation. We have the most professional designers and the most outstanding. Engineers and most dedicated employees. We have completed many projects that have been hailed as impossible, and this is why I am here today.”

Klin left the seat and distributed the brochure in his hand to every business representative. “We not only provide the best design, but also provide a certain degree of financial solutions. Mr. Mayor, please forgive me for the next arrogance, you What I worry about is not a problem in my opinion. We can provide financial support of no less than 30 million. Of course, interest will be slightly higher, and the annual profit will be 10%. Before you pay the entire construction cost, the railway The right to operate is owned by our company for the time being!”

After sending the last brochure to Durin, he smiled and stood aside, not paying attention to the anger of the representatives of the imperial enterprises.

If it weren’t for Coles who suddenly lost consciousness, they wouldn’t dare to hang in the railroad of Star Empire. Coles controls the operation of more than 60% of the empire’s railways, and can also intervene in the operation of the remaining railways. As long as he is there, there is no “third party” in the field of railway transportation.

But he fell, which also made Confederation’s capitalists realize that this is the best opportunity to enter the imperial rail transport industry in the past three decades.

Rail transport itself has huge profit margins, but also has enough political influence. These are always things that capital chases.

Over the past year or so, under the influence of the Confederation trade alliance, Confederation capital forces have begun to rapidly invade the economic realm of the empire, and the emergence of large-scale duty-free commodities has hit the imperial local market. Now they are no longer satisfied with small fights. I began to embark on the political arena of the empire.

If Durin promised the Confederation businessman’s request, it would mean that the Confederation person broke the “zero” situation and successfully broke the ice. This is definitely not a good thing.

“Mr. Mayor, I think we should expel this Confederation with evil intentions!” A representative stood up and made a loud request. “This is the territory of the empire, building railways on the territory of the empire.” It should also be an imperial person!”

Klin didn’t look at the guy and kept paying attention to Durin. He smiled and said: “Mr. Mayor, whenever you have enough money, you can get back the railway operation righttime and anywhere. This is just business, with the country. It has nothing to do with the great patriotic sentiments of your gentlemen. Business should be pure, without any position, and we can indeed come up with a construction plan that meets your needs, what do you say?”

Durin walked a little back and forth a few steps, and he shook his head and said, “10% is too much!”

Clinton’s expression of surprise, his excited lips began to pick up, it seems that Durin is accusing him of the unacceptable conditions of the financial solution, but actually telling everyone that he is willing to choose Confederation businessmen to do this. Things.

Many local representatives have expressed disappointing expressions, and several people have left the meeting with anger. They know that they lost in this competition. At the same time, they also realized that in the near future, more Confederation businessmen will appear in the Empire and compete with the Empire Capital for market share.

The economic recovery of the empire is like a honeycomb with honey dripping, which has already attracted many people’s peeks. This day is definitely not too far away.

For Durin, this is no way. He is short of money. He can even say that he will always be short of money in the future. Those representatives of the Imperial position can’t give a better plan. He can’t because of the money in his hand. If not enough, the railway plan will be dragged down. The city of Otis needs these two railways. It can be said that as long as these two railways are available, it is only a matter of time before the Namelins.

He can’t wait too long, and those investors can’t wait too long.

Perhaps like the advice of those people, it is a good idea to borrow from a bank or Chamber of Commerce. The problem is that the bank needs the city hall to pledge at least 18 months of tax revenue, which means that after the loan to the bank, every penny collected in the city in the next 18 months will be with Durin, and This city doesn’t matter.

What should I do?

What should I do?

As for the Chamber of Commerce, he just turned over the workers’ union and turned to the Chamber of Commerce loan. The Chamber of Commerce will definitely open an unbearable condition to expand the influence of the Chamber of Commerce to the city. Every corner.

Instead of being taken away by these people, the future of the city is not as light as the two.

Things seemed to be a foregone conclusion. Durin asked Natalie to send away other people and sit down with Klein to talk about building the railway. In the coming days, more Confederation people have arrived in Otis, forming a negotiating team and the Otis City Council to discuss the details of building the railway.

Here, Durin made a request and a requirement that must be met, that is, all workers must be imperial, and management must have at least three imperial people.

Business negotiations involving tens of millions of funds like this can never be decided by the stop time, and after 12 days, the two parties signed the final agreement.

The construction company called “Joint Construction Engineering” took over the project of Durin, and the initial investment of no less than 20 million, Otis City Hall needs to pay no less than 10 million funds, all funds are subject to both supervision And regulation. After one third is achieved during the construction period, the total construction cost is calculated and Otis City Council will begin to pay interest and repay the principal at the expense.

On the day of the signing, there was no one in the empire to congratulate. On the contrary, there were a lot of reporters from the Confederation. Under the illumination of the spotlight, Durin exchanged the agreement with Ms. Pola, the president of Joint Construction Engineering.

After the signing ended, the two parties simply convened a banquet and rushed to the meeting. Joint Construction Engineering needed to start the Early Stage program immediately, including field trips and hired workers, as well as a lot of chores.

“You have to take care of the mood of the imperial people!”

Kevin was half lying on the sofa, his legs were eating beef and steaming wheat kernels. The final approval of the agreement was completed by him. Others Durin was not at ease!
