Chapter 136: Running! Preparation of campaign funds (2nd watch)
If you're going to run for city council, you have to do a good job.
Most things don't have to worry about Luo Yin.
The general direction is controlled by the town hall, and Luke helps with the details.
But there are some things that need to be done by Luo Yin in person, such as preparing campaign funds.
Luo Yin chatted with Burton in a joking tone at the time, asking him if the city hall would stop his campaign funds or something.
Burton refused without thinking about it.
He said that Luo Yin can ask for people, or venues, and can provide any convenience within the rules.
But asking for money? Not a single point!
The city hall in the city of Jombi is very poor. Although they are able to collect a large amount of taxes every year, most of them are to be paid, and there is not much money left.
And there are so many people in the town hall.
You divide it, I divide it, he divides it, and there's not much left! If you have any money left over to maintain the infrastructure, repair the city hall building, provide some benefits to the officials, and that's gone!
They don't have enough to spend themselves, so how can they use the money to help people campaign?
Why should the city hall find someone to run for council, it is not because after people outside the city take office, it will affect their interests! To put it bluntly, it's all about the money!
The town hall will try to provide everything, but not cash.
Burton took a fancy to Luo Yin, and there was another hidden reason that he didn't mention, that is, Luo Yin was rich! As long as Luo Yin is willing to spend money, the odds of being selected will be greatly improved!
Therefore, Luo Yin needs to prepare a certain amount of campaign funds by himself, which is also what candidates have always needed to do.
Those who have money take their own money, and those who don't have money pull sponsors to get money.
Luo Yin consulted Burton. According to the previous example, about 100,000 to 500,000 union coins are needed. Most of the parliamentarians spent about 200,000.
Of course, this does not mean that you can become a congressman with 200,000 yuan, and it is useless if you don't have the right opportunity and not enough prestige.
Today is the Fourth of March, the fourth day after the restaurant opened.
Luo Yin's industry sent the February bill.
Among them, the most profitable, as Luo Yin expected, is the tulip sugar industry.
Last month, the net profit after tax of gem candy was 400,000 yuan, the net profit of ordinary cane sugar was 450,000 yuan, the net profit of white sugar was 135,000 yuan, and the net profit of gem candy experience store was 50,000 yuan.
The net profit of the entire tulip sugar industry last month was 1.035 million!
To be honest, when he saw this bill, Luo Yin himself was shocked.
Last year, the net profit of his tulip company was only three or four hundred thousand yuan a month.
When the reform began in January this year, he also accounted for the light, and the net profit of the tulip sugar industry in January was 830,000. This number is already terrifying, doubling from last year.
But in February, the company went further, and its net profit directly exceeded one million!
Tulip Sugar Industry has paid more than 600,000 yuan in taxes this month, which is higher than the previous net profit!
I have to say that with the east wind of the reform of Qiongbi City and the opportunity for the incandescent sugar industry to withdraw, Tulip Sugar Industry has officially become a giant enterprise in Qiongbi City.
It may not be as big as a company, but its profitability is definitely one of the best!
And this is not the upper limit, Luo Yin is looking forward to the future of the tulip sugar industry.
Now Tulip Candy has 1.93 million cash in its account, which is a net profit after tax.
Last month, Luo Yin's personal profit also increased by 200,000 yuan, but due to the investment in Miro restaurant, renovation of the manor and improvement of life, etc., a lot of money was spent, and after this plus and one subtraction, Luo Yin's personal assets were only 400,000. Plus 20 gold coins. This is equivalent to 1.4 million in total.
Jumian did not pay dividends this month, and Puran felt that now was a good time for the company to expand, and it had to use the funds for development. After that, the market outside the city will also be grabbed, and it will not be too late to pay dividends.
For Pulan's decision, the company's major shareholders have expressed their support, and the current non-dividend is to share more in the future, and they are not short of this dividend for the time being.
And many companies only pay dividends once every six months or a year.
But the minority shareholders are a little unhappy, after all, they are not as rich as the major shareholders, and they can divide more than 6,000 yuan a month. The major shareholders do not lack tens of thousands of dollars, but they lack these thousands of dollars.
And looking at the profitability of Jumian Company, if it was a dividend last month, it might be more than 6,000 yuan.
However, they are only small shareholders, and they can't change anything, so they can only honestly wait for dividends later.
Luo Yin didn't care much about the dividends and non-dividends, anyway, Pu Lan had already passed with him in advance, and Luo Yin was supportive.
After knowing all his current funds, Luo Yin directly prepared 500,000 parliamentarian campaign funds to sponsor in the name of Tulip Company.
Sponsorship and donations, such as political donations, are not subject to tax. Then it is more appropriate to use the company's money, after all, if the company's money wants to be transferred to his personal account, he must pay personal income tax.
Luo Yin suddenly thought of a possibility, if he donated all the company's money to himself for the campaign, but the money did not run out and fell into his pocket. Wouldn't that be one less tax?
Well, I'll look at the punishment.
No longer thinking about what he had or not, Luo Yin continued to check the bills of the tulip candy industry.
Then Luo Yin found that the tulip sugar industry is now facing a big problem - there is not enough sugarcane!
At the beginning, he bought 200 tons of sugarcane from Lunn, and now nearly two months have passed, and he has almost used it, and if he does not replenish the sugarcane, he will face the dilemma of insufficient raw materials.
Although the incandescent sugar industry is gone, Luo Yin can buy sugarcane from many sources. But he had seen the high-quality sugar cane provided by Lunn, and naturally he didn't look down on other crooked melons and cracked dates. After all, there is no one who can beat the sugar yield rate of 20% at present.
"Lunn, this old boy has been gone for so long, and he hasn't heard from ......"
Luo Yin was a little depressed, he still expected Lun En to continue to provide sugar cane, but after this goods left, there was not even a letter.
Calculating the time, it has been more than a month, and it is almost past the deadline agreed by the two.
When the contract was signed, Luo Yin and Lun agreed that if Lun could not provide sugar cane within two months, then Luo Yin had the right to break the contract.
Lun finally negotiated with Luo Yin, and he definitely didn't want to lose Luo Yin's sales.
Unless he finds a better seller, but Luo Yin thinks it's unlikely, if he really has that ability, why bother asking for himself in the first place. Luo Yin was even more convinced that he had fallen into the sea
Luo Yin was going to wait a few more days, and if Lunn didn't hear from him again, he would have to consider a new supply channel.
However, Lunn seemed to know Luo Yin's thoughts, and the next day, Lunn finally came to the news.
