In the uneasiness of the representatives of the conservative chambers of commerce, the tender meeting continued slowly, and the representatives of the member chambers of commerce of the alliance all tendered for the roads they wanted, and finally the tender for the road repair plan in Hurghana and the surrounding area ended with the successful bidding of 124 roads.

Among the 56 business alliance chambers present, three undertook the repair of more than 10 roads, among which Xia Lin, as a representative of the Xinye Chamber of Commerce, tendered for four avenues and seven main roads in the western district, as well as thirteen secondary roads adjacent to the slums, and all of them were successfully won.

These roads will further spread the influence of the Slova Industrial Park by connecting the new new district with the western part of the imperial capital after the completion of the slum infrastructure project.

The remaining two were awarded by the Colin Chamber of Commerce and the Brooke Chamber of Commerce for the repair of 21 roads and 17 roads respectively.

The Colin Chamber of Commerce is the family chamber of commerce of the Colin family, which has been engaged in shipbuilding and river transportation for generations, and more than 50% of the ships berthed at the wharves in the north and south districts are produced by the shipyards under the name of their chamber of commerce.

Their bid was to take advantage of the opportunity to repair the road near the pier and further control the shipping industry.

The traditional industries of the Brooke Chamber of Commerce include land trade and transportation, so naturally they will not miss this opportunity to strengthen their strength.

Of the remaining chambers of commerce, seventeen have tendered for more than three roads, and below are the groups of chambers that are purely for the purpose of fulfilling the cement patent licensing contract.

The time limit for the authorization of highway royalties for these roads is basically set at 15 to 30 years, which is exactly the number of years when the use of stone happens to be unable to return the cost, but the use of cement can earn several times the profit.

Director Alrod felt very strange about this result, but he didn't say much, anyway, it was a good thing that the Chamber of Commerce was willing to repair the roads in the imperial capital, so he quickly arranged for someone to sign a contract with the personnel of the Chamber of Commerce, and then issued the relevant documents of the City Hall, giving these Chambers of Commerce the qualification to build the corresponding roads.

On the other hand, after leaving the town hall with the representatives of the fifty-five alliance chambers, Xia Lin went to the Venia Opera House and began to hold a small internal meeting of the alliance, the specific content of which was to discuss how to build so many roads.

Although almost every chamber of commerce in the construction industry is involved, and they have some stonemasons, carpenters or masons under their names to build some buildings, each of them has no confidence to complete such a large-scale project on their own, and entrusting a stonemason guild will drive up their costs.

Therefore, at the suggestion of Xia Lin, a member of parliament who already had considerable prestige in the alliance, these representatives of the Chamber of Commerce participated in this small meeting with great ease.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I think the question is actually quite simple, we don't lack all kinds of craftsmen at hand, what we lack is the way to organize them.

Therefore, I propose that the chambers of commerce combine their technical forces and set up the second, third, fourth, and fifth construction companies in the imperial capital, each of which will have under its jurisdiction twenty-five construction teams with ten craftsmen of various types, and each construction team will recruit forty ordinary workers to be responsible for the construction of these roads.

First of all, the reconstruction of the roads inside the imperial capital will be carried out, and then the efforts of the four construction companies will be brought together to repair the main road between Helgana and the Blue Lagoon outside the city."

Xia Lin stood on the stage and explained his thoughts to the councillors below, while Wyatt and the staff of the New Leaf Chamber of Commerce handed out the plans he had drawn up in advance for the four construction companies to the councillors, asking them to carefully review the terms on it.

"A construction company? It sounds similar to the Chamber of Commerce, but these craftsmen were hired by our Chamber of Commerce at a considerable cost, so should we just give them away for free?"

Ullens Colin briefly read a few pages of the construction company's plan and said to Xia Lin with a frown.

"Of course not, Councillor Ullens, our company has a joint-stock structure, and we can distribute the shares of these construction companies according to the level and number of technicians sent by each chamber of commerce.

The principle of the construction company is to provide cheap manpower to help us complete these winning bids

but there will also be revenues in the process, and after deducting the operating costs of the construction company, the profits will also be distributed according to the number of shares.

In this way, we can manage these projects clearly, and if we were to do it as before, it would have been difficult for us to figure out the status of our employees."

Charlin briefly explained the managerial advantages of the construction companies, prompting Ullens and many of the other councillors to look thoughtful.

"Xia Lin, if that's the case, I'm sure I don't have any opinion, but the construction period of these roads is long and short, how should we allocate these hundred construction teams?"

Now the president of the Greg Chamber of Commerce, Ellen Geraig, who also attended the tender today, asked Xia Lin.

"I think we can divide these roads that need to be repaired into three categories, the first is those with a long construction period and a small amount of work, the second type is a long period of construction and a large amount of work, and the third type is a short period of construction and a small amount of work.

After the construction company was formed, we focused on building the third type of road quickly, then we moved on to the second category, and then we went back to the first category when the second type of road was almost complete."

The question was simple, and Xia Lin quickly explained the specific manpower distribution according to his expected idea.

"Then I don't think we have any problems with the Greg Chamber of Commerce!"

Ellen Greg thought for a moment, this would indeed make the most of their manpower, and nodded in reply.

As for the representatives of the other chambers of commerce, after reading this detailed plan, they asked Xia Lin a few more questions, and after Xia Lin answered them one by one, they had no opinions.

After voting, the second, third, fourth, and fifth four construction companies in the imperial capital were formally established, and each chamber of commerce immediately began to transfer its craftsmen into the construction company, and distributed the basic capital investment for the company's operation, and used these craftsmen and the initial investment to divide their respective shares.

Xia Lin asked Sharp, the general manager of the First Construction Company of the Imperial Capital, to send several captains of the construction team to assist them in the construction of the company's structure, and the candidates such as stewards were decided by those who contributed manpower and financial resources.

This is certainly not a gratuitous aid, in this link, the New Leaf Chamber of Commerce also signed a letter of intent with these newly established construction companies to try to buy a batch of concrete mixers and various construction tools, these orders are enough to absorb a considerable part of the steel mill's output, bringing rich profits to the industrial park.

And with these newly established construction companies, Xia Lin finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The number one construction company has taken on too many tasks. The roads, railways, houses of the employee community, and the factory facilities that need to be built from time to time in the industrial parks and slums, etc., are not enough even if there are more than a dozen or twenty construction teams on hand.

If we further expand the scale of the First Construction Company, on the one hand, the quality of the management personnel cannot keep up, and it is easy to have problems, and on the other hand, after the completion of these infrastructure projects, how to arrange them will also be a big problem.

Therefore, taking advantage of this opportunity, Xia Lin used the power of the alliance to set up several construction companies that had nothing to do with the New Leaf Chamber of Commerce.

At that time, he only needs to hire the construction team of these construction companies to complete the infrastructure construction plan, and after the termination of the contract, he will not need to worry about the arrangement of the construction company by the New Leaf Chamber of Commerce, which is really a good plan to kill one stone with one stone.
