Chapter 20 Five-Star Hotels
At the beginning of October, Count Singalla had left the Duchy of Nord, and although he had left with regret, he did not know that he had obtained the greatest golden job.
The reports of the various departments in September have been condensed in front of Joseph's desk, and Joseph can't help but have a headache when he looks at the suggestions, the requests for appropriations, and the shortage of workers.
In the palace conference room, looking at the cabinet members below, Joseph rubbed his head and asked, "The fruit trees have been planted, but the damage rate is very large, do you have any good suggestions for this matter?" ”
This is not a trivial matter, it is related to Nord's morality at this time, in Joseph's eyes, economy is secondary, a country's morality is the most important, making money and being a man Joseph undoubtedly chose the latter.
"Increase the amount of compensation?"
Since the departure of the French, the Duchy of Nord has been cut off a lot, so that now the departments are very busy, such as the planting of trees, which ended up in the police station.
The one who spoke was the chief of the Nord Beicheng District Police Department, the police station is an important department in Nord, not only responsible for public security, fires, but also supervising urban management, tree planting and other things, this middle-aged director is indeed very hard.
"You police station will handle this matter by yourself, I only want the result, I only hope that the next time I go out, I will see the moral and orderly picking of the Nord principality, instead of destroying it at will like now."
Wiping a handful of non-existent sweat on his head, the chief of the Beicheng District Police hurriedly replied: "Understood, understood!" ”
Seeing that this matter was over, James said: "Your Highness, we have a lot of guests in Nord recently, do you think you want to build a better hotel?" ”
The guests are not tourists, here to talk about some of Joseph's shamelessness, since the last time the media from various countries arrived, Joseph saw the importance of this group of foreigners to the Nord economy, so he took advantage of the announcement of the European revival plan, he arranged for someone to release the gossip that Nord was ready to build a large number of buildings.
This kind of news attracted builders from all over the world, and the hotel built by Joseph was overcrowded every day, and James saw all this, so he made a proposal.
"Well, I'll arrange for someone to do this, and it's good to have more entertainment industry."
Nord is not forbidden to gamble, in fact, this is normal, the gambling industry is quite profitable, the most important thing is not to occupy too much land, it is really a must for small countries.
"Your Highness, as of now, the total savings of the Nord Royal Bank are three million dollars, most of which are in the amount of three million dollars, but most of the assets are now in good condition."
Joseph was pleased with the fact that the GDP of the Duchy of Nord was $9 million in September, nearly double that of the Duchy of Nord in July.
"I remember that when the North City District was just being built, I warned Prime Minister Kress and told him that if the economy of North City District does not improve at the end of the year, I will not spare him, and now the economy of North City District is good, but unfortunately our Prime Minister Kress can't see this."
Joseph's ridicule was not answered, in the Nord Duchy now the word Kress is actually a taboo, although Joseph won this war, but the victory is only temporary, after all, Kress is not the real enemy, the real enemy is France.
In fact, there is no territorial dispute between the Principality of Nord and France, but the Principality of Nord is too small and France is too strong, and it feels awkward if you don't step on it next to a small ant, and if the ant grows up one day, then the two may be able to live in peace.
Seeing that no one spoke, Joseph had no choice but to change the topic to resolve his embarrassment, and happened to see the Paris daily newspaper on the table about Huaxia, and began to ask about the results of James arranging for someone to go to France.
"The initial intention has been discussed, but Huaxia said that they can't come up with so much money for the time being, and if they can, they are willing to exchange resources or other things."
"On the workers' side?"
"If nothing else, it will come in three months, the first batch of 8,000 people, the second group of 6,000, the third group of 9,000, and we signed 23,000 people, most of whom are young men."
Nodding his head, Joseph was obviously very satisfied with this matter, he did not ask about the educational level of this group of people, which was not as good as that of German workers, but he believed that it was still much better than that of Eastern Europe.
"In terms of nationality, what does the Chinese side say?"
"Ambassador Zhang Jianjun's answer is that China is a free country, and it is the right of citizens to choose how to choose, and they will not care too much."
This was actually a tacit acquiescence, and Joseph became more and more satisfied.
"Now that the population of Nord is close to 10,000, housing in Beicheng District is starting to be a little tight, and the apartments in the central district can be stopped for a while, and a living park can be built in the industrial area as soon as possible, and the arriving Chinese workers can be arranged there first."
The president of the Nord Royal Group understood that this was said to himself, so he nodded and said that there was no problem, although it was difficult to build a large living area for 10,000 people in three months, but he believed in the speed of the construction company under his command.
"If nothing else, just break up! James told Huaxia that it is okay to exchange other things, but we don't want resources, and the part that can't be taken out can be filled with shares. ”
Joseph's words James obviously didn't agree with much, and wanted to persuade something, but looking at Joseph's determined eyes and the worried eyes of the cabinet members around him, he couldn't help but shut up and nodded, since the last time the House of Representatives, Joseph obviously had a big opinion about him.
Leaving the conference room with the black-clad guards, the cabinet members who remained in the conference room began to fall silent, and after a long time......
"Do what Your Highness has ordered as soon as possible!"
"Your Excellency Prime Minister, you really want to ask for shares as Your Highness said, and now the situation in the East is uncertain, in case it is as ...... as the legend says."
"I trust Your Highness's vision."
"Alright! Follow your advice. ”
……
After a while, the news of his departure from the conference room reached Joseph's ears, to which Joseph only smiled lightly and did not answer, but the maid Joanna and the butler Abner could see that Joseph was very happy today.
A five-star hotel was listed in the architectural form of the construction company, not far from the beach, which was the only place where Joseph would not reclaim the sea in the future.
Joseph has always been very hesitant, because many projects cannot be carried out due to the reclamation, for fear that the buildings built by then will lose their original environment because of the reclamation.
For example, a five-star hotel, close to the beach, and a small forest, is a five-star hotel in such an environment, but after the reclamation is surrounded by all kinds of buildings, how does it qualify to have the name of a five-star hotel?
Don't worry now, Joseph has already thought that there will be no all-round reclamation in the future, at least there will be no large increase in the mainland, Joseph will build a large island not far from the mainland, some heavy industry and agriculture will be placed there, and the mainland is still mainly based on life.
The construction of a five-star hotel alone will not meet the needs of the Principality of Nord, casinos, golf courses, yacht clubs, luxury stores are the focus of the future Nord Principality. However, because of the funds, Joseph can only come up with enough money to build a casino.
A five-star hotel is not a building like an apartment, plus a series of supporting facilities, the construction cost of 2 million US dollars can be said to be the most expensive construction cost Joseph came up with, and the casino is not cheap, and the construction cost of 800,000 US dollars also makes Joseph feel painful.
Fortunately, Joseph thought about the return they brought, and the pain in his heart was slightly reduced, there is a good saying, reluctant children can't trap wolves, and now Joseph is like this.
