Chapter 147: Investments and Returns

Here, after seeing off Lady Ellie, Wren opened his tent and prepared to welcome the next batch of fat sheep.

About three hours later, at sunset, several local businessmen ran over in a hurry.

This proves that they are not as well-informed as Mrs. Ellie, who should have learned about Hara Zarro's visit to the mayor this morning.

"Good morning, Mr. Ackerman."

"Sir, you are really diligent and have always been on the front line of work."

"I've heard that you're all on payroll, and it's rare to see a generous and benevolent businessman like you, which is really admirable."

…………

As soon as they met, these shrewd businessmen had flattering smiles on their faces, and they were immediately presented with sycophants.

For them, it's a basic operation, and it doesn't cost anything anyway.

It was very comfortable to shoot Rennes...... It's weird, don't think that they will be easy to talk about if they have a good attitude.

When they looked for him two days ago, they were also very enthusiastic, but in fact, when they really talked about the conditions, they did not let go.

The tent area built by Rennes is far from the city center, and there is a lot of room for consumption, and if you open a shop here after it is full of refugees, you can definitely make a lot of money.

That's why these businessmen are so enthusiastic, referencing the various shops around schools on the planet, which are very profitable, and that's just for the student population.

Wren smiled as well, invited them to sit down, and asked, "Now, can you agree to my terms?" ”

He has already bought the land, and if he wants to set up shop here, he must agree and pay rent.

A greasy middle-aged businessman with a beer belly laughed and patted his chest: "No problem, we like to work with generous people like you." ”

In fact, Wren's conditions were harsh, and he not only collected rent, but also demanded a share of the profits of these merchants, although not much.

That's why they didn't say yes last time, and of course, the most important thing is that the merchants weren't sure if there were people living in the tents, they didn't know that war was coming.

Wren nodded, took out a few contracts that had already been prepared from the drawer, and handed them to them: "Everyone has signed the contract and made money happily together." ”

Several merchants reached out to take the contract, but Stanley, an acquaintance of Wren's, was not among them, he was just a small trader and was not qualified to bargain.

They had seen the contract yesterday, but they didn't sign it right away.

The fat merchant rubbed his hands, smiled on his round face, looked at Wren and said, "That, Mr. Ackerman, can the division be canceled?"

We can raise the rent, this is negotiable. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone turned their eyes to Wren, and he demanded a 10% profit share, which meant that for every 10 silver coins they earned, they would give one to Wren.

To be honest, the merchants don't want to give, his condition is a bit harsh, Wren is not exempt from rent, but also has to take a share, his heart is very dark, very greedy.

Wren had a smile on his face and a calm tone: "This residential area is more than 2.5 kilometers away from the nearest commercial street and vegetable market, and it is not a short walk.

If there are various shops and stalls in the community, residents will naturally not travel that far, even if it is a little more expensive, they will accept it.

People are inert, and there won't be too many people who walk an extra 2.5 kilometers for a few copper coins.

All I want is this part of the income, and you can still make the profit you deserve. ”

That being said, probably earn a little more, who wouldn't be happy.

Several businessmen were soft and hard, and Wren listened happily.

You are all right, I am indeed a generous man, kind-hearted, young, handsome...... But he just wouldn't let go.

He was not afraid of uncompromising businessmen, because the town hall would also develop the vacant land nearby, and Suzanne understood that private stalls were not allowed in this area.

If you want to make money and get in the car, you must follow the "rules", which is also the confidence that Wren dares to share.

The Sand Sculpture Conservation Society has recently been recruiting for those ordinary cowboys and some civilian workers, and Wren intends to take charge of the property management of the residential area.

If you don't sign this contract, don't want to open a store here, even if you are a self-employed person, you have to pay the stall fee to the big boss Rennes.

Otherwise, the security personnel of the community property management and the Sand Sculpture Protection Association will immediately smash your stall, confiscate your things, and go to the public security bureau to sue you and ask you to pay a sum of money.

That's right, it's so domineering, Wren is now successfully promoted to domineering president, but what he said is:

Gold, you managed to get my attention.

Sure enough, seeing that Wren was soft and hard, the businessmen could only pinch their noses and sign this contract with an overlord clause.

"Happy cooperation, believe me, it's a win-win thing."

Seeing that the dust had settled, Wren put away the contract and announced loudly.

"Happy working together!"

"Haha, you're so polite."

"We're going to have a banquet in the evening, and I'd like to ask Mr. Ackerman to be sure to look at it."

Everyone responded enthusiastically, even if Rennes' contract was a bit harsh, it was still a very lucrative business.

There are two kinds of military tents set up by Rennes, one covers an area of 20 square meters and the other covers an area of 16 square meters.

According to the family composition of the average Kangao people, 4,000 military tents are enough to house about 20,000 people, which is almost 4,000 households.

This is 20,000 people's food, clothing, housing and transportation, and a family can save money and spend 1 silver coin a day.

4,000 families, 4,000 silver coins a day, 120,000 silver coins a month!

Wren takes one percent, excluding the self-employed people who set up stalls, and there are probably 10,000 silver coins, that is, 1,000 gold.

With the rent, each tent is about 2 gold coins a month, 4,000 is about 8,000 gold coins, and 9,000 gold coins are credited to the account a month.

Rennes' business has a total investment of 25,000 gold, that is to say, it can be repaid in three months, which is still a conservative estimate and the minimum standard.

Moreover, Mrs. Ellie invested 5,000 gold (one-fifth) and divided the rent into 12%, while Wren only invested 20,000 gold coins and took 88% of the rent.

He borrowed 10,000 gold coins, and as a master-level transcendent, this loan was interest-free for one year.

The remaining shortfall of another 10,000 gold coins was to invest most of the harvest from the killing of Marcello, the extortion of the Bluestone Department and the sale of the body of the Marquis of Culo.

Wren currently has 1,200 gold coins left, a fourth-order blood core, a storage ring, and a small amount of resources.

But it's all worth it, and the rewards are huge.

Even Mrs. Ellie, who seems to have been slaughtered by Wren, can also make a lot of money, and she gets 12% of the 8,000 gold coin rent, which is 960 gold a month.

She will be able to recoup her capital in about 5 months, and the war will start in a year for an unknown duration, and she has another deal with Rennes.

After this business, she is enough to earn money to use the top matching scheme to promote to the fourth order!

As soon as the cannon goes off, ten thousand taels of gold!

Making war money is not the only way to sell arms.
