Chapter 218: Pull Investment

If Rune were to choose the most popular among the businessmen, Wayne would have no doubt that he would come out on top. When these businessmen sleep with their wives or lovers every day, Wayne appears most often in their dreams. Of course, it's not because of the charm that Wayne's body exudes, of course Wayne has a good figure.

What they liked was the opportunity that Wayne represented, and the wealth of the people who followed him in the first place had multiplied. Now Wayne speaks more spiritually than their own mother, and is simply the father of the business world. Many merchants were going to make offerings to Wayne, put two candles, and burn incense every day.

Anyway, now Wayne is almost a call, and when he says that he wants to do big things in the territory, he immediately attracts countless businessmen. Assets range from thousands to thousands.

Wayne didn't announce what to do, and now there was a long feast in the open air. It is filled with dishes made from seafood. Fried fish, kelp soup ....

Some merchants are well-informed, eat in large gulps, and pick the fattest parts of the fish. Some merchants are hesitant, and although they have eaten it, they do not eat it often. But Wayne took the lead in eating, and it would be too shameful for him not to taste a few bites.

After a full burp, Wayne wiped his mouth with satisfaction and glanced at the feast of nearly a thousand people, most of which were already almost eaten on the table. Of course, this is certain, and Wayne has invited a lot of chefs to make it carefully. For those who don't like to eat seafood in the first place, most of them are still very satisfied with these dishes.

Wayne picked up the loudspeaker, well, Wayne was very hesitant. The food in the stomach has not been digested, and it is not good for the body to talk at the top of the throat.

But in front of so many people, they were embarrassed to put down the horn, and thousands of people looked at Wayne with an idolatrous look, feeling that as soon as Wayne opened his mouth, he would cry bitterly and rush up to hug the flowers. It's not that Wayne has a lot of plays, the main thing is that these people's eyes are indeed a little hot.

In this case, I can't help these fans if I don't say something.

"First of all, thank you gentlemen for cheering me on, it's an honor for Wayne. There is nothing else to do to call everyone today, it is just one thing to make money. ”

Well, why does this sentence sound so familiar? Replacing Mr. with Brother is a standard underworld party. But Wayne is a man of culture, how can he be the same as a street gangster. However, it still won the applause of the audience.

At this moment, Wayne put down the horn and slowed down, and half-hiccuped.

"As for what money to make, don't rush yet. Let me start by asking you all questions, how was the dish today?"

After a second or two, the sound of waves rushed in.

"Delicious. ”

Wayne continued.

"Gentlemen, I have an idea, buy all over Rune, and kelp, squid, and a lot of seafood. ”

Then a man interrupted Wayne, a millionaire. Just look at the ring on his hand that is some years old.

"Count Nils, it's not that I'm offending you, but I'm going to mention it anyway. You've had this idea for a long time, but you've run into difficulties. Because the fish will stink in two days and cannot be eaten. And that's not enough time to get out of your territory. ”

Wayne nodded and motioned for him to sit down.

"Yes, this gentleman is right. Not to mention fish, even if it is mutton, pork will not be preserved for three days. But I invented a method, pickling. This method allows the fish to be preserved for up to half a year. ”

The audience resounded with wows, admiring Wayne's wisdom and revealing a greedy gaze in his eyes.

Suddenly, a voice rang out.

"I'll pay 200,000 gold coins to buy this method. ”

Others responded.

"I'll give 400,000. ”

"Eight hundred thousand. ”

"A million. ”

Gradually, the voice became quieter.

Wayne said at this point.

"No, no, gentlemen, don't think of Wayne as that kind of person. It's not easy for you to be lucky enough to be here, so I've decided to make this method open to everyone at no cost. ”

This time it was not just applause, but cheers. Especially the people in the back row, they have the weakest capital. If you compete, you will definitely not be able to compete with the giants in the front row. Wayne's move is undoubtedly the most profitable for them.

But the businessman's eyes were sharp, and the wealthy businessman sitting in the front row asked.

"Count Nils, in my experience, the bigger the ship, the farther the shore and the more fish it catches. But in response, the ship's fraud has also skyrocketed. And the Count of Nils has a big ship, and I would like to ask about the price of that ship. ”

Wayne also ignored the merchant's careful thoughts, and raised his loudspeaker and said.

"Indeed, even a small fishing boat costs nearly ten gold coins, which can be said to be the most expensive property in a fisherman's family. If I take a boat, it will be difficult to build without 5,000 gold coins, and if I want to catch more fish, especially some rare species. It's going to be farther along the coastline, and I don't know how much bigger the boat is, but I estimate that it will be about 10,000 at least. ”

This is undoubtedly a pour of cold water poured on most of the heads, but they don't have so much money to put into it. This is a high-capital industry.

Wayne continued.

"But this is the current price, because the current shipbuilding industry in Rune is underdeveloped, and there are few shipwrights. But if you gentlemen are willing to get involved, the cost of shipbuilding will be further reduced. And I am ready to open a research institute for shipbuilding here. ”

This sentence was like a stimulant, and after a short moment of stunnedness, everyone cheered, and they could imagine that an ocean of gold coins had poured in.

Wayne threw the horn into the crowd as well, howled a few times, and then slumped into his chair. After eating, you still have to sit and digest well.

Soon Wayne cleaned up a large empty house in the family and hung up a sign of the Rune Ship Research Institute. Of course, this is not an empty shelf, and Wayne still recruited some not very important talents and some craftsmen from Nolan.

In the early stage of the development of the shipbuilding industry, it was basically based on empirical exploration, and the introduction of scientific quantitative standards would hinder its development.

The main responsibility of the research institute is to create Wayne's drawings and accumulate experience. When the fishing industry has developed to a certain scale, and the boats are getting bigger and bigger, then the introduction of science can accelerate the development.

But now these merchants don't even want to invest a lot of money in it, building ports, building ships, and so on. There may not be any need for a preliminary risk assessment, after all, Wayne's reputation is too loud. If it's late, the chances may be gone.

Wayne is also very face-saving, and several excellent ports in the territory are all open for free. At the same time, the merchants were given detailed information about the fishing villages and the craftsmen who could make fishing boats.
