"Water plant, power plant, oil plant, coal plant..." Dulin sat in a room in a manor in Henry, a suburb of Verriel. This is the current meeting place of the country club. At this time, the country club's second member Gathered here for the first time, Dulin was facing these big shots to distribute the next benefits, "Gentlemen, this is a big business with a market size of nearly 600,000 people. Every month these people use infrastructure services, they need to provide at least After deducting the expenses of two yuan, there is still half a profit, which is six hundred thousand yuan!”
"We all know that there are twelve months in a year. I want to thank the person who taught me to count. Let me at least know that the profit of 600,000 per month is 7.2 million in profit in twelve months, excluding those taxes. , with at least a profit of no less than 6.45 million, so I think if you have some funds to allocate, you might as well consider investing in some infrastructure in these three towns. I will disclose another one here. According to the news, these three towns will most likely be upgraded to cities, three cities of immigrants, in the next three to five years!”
As the only woman in the room, Sandra was more sensitive to the changes in some details, "You mean that the empire will expand the scope of immigrants and send all subsequent immigrants to the west? If that's true. In this way, it is not impossible to invest some funds.”
"How big can they be?" Henry belatedly asked a question that everyone wanted to know, "I mean in three to five years, how many places will there be in these three places that have been upgraded to cities?" How many people are there in the entire west? Why do they want to send immigrants to the west?”
Du Lin curled his lips and said, "You have a lot of questions, but I will still answer your questions patiently." This is Du Lin's advantage, he never discriminates against the mentally retarded.
“In my estimation, in five years’ time these three cities will house at least no less than 1.5 million people, and more than 70% of these populations will be laborers. They will create huge According to the expenditure standards I just told you, these 1.5 million people will generate at least 4 million in infrastructure service expenses every month in five years. Let’s assume that the profit is still half. That’s a profit of two million per month.”
"As for how many people Mr. Henry asked about in the entire West, I think you should ask the state government, not me, but I believe it will not be less than four million to five million people."
"The third question is, why did they come to the west!" Dulin looked around at the big capitalists sitting in the room and said with a smile: "Because here is the soil suitable for their survival!"
"The economy in the southern and eastern parts of the empire has shown a trend of rapid expansion. In the west, an income of fifty yuan a month can guarantee the most basic life for two people, and there is probably a balance of more than ten yuan. But in the In other places in the empire, fifty yuan can only guarantee a person's survival for a month, and there will not be much surplus. I know you may think that the salary elsewhere will be higher, but please pay attention to one issue. Jobs in the West do not require special skills, but in other places, high-tech jobs will gradually account for half or more of the total number of jobs in society.”
"And unskilled or low-skilled jobs have become saturated. There are not enough jobs for these refugees. They will not be able to survive in the empire, and they will eventually face an outcome, which is to leave the empire."
"But the west can. All jobs in the west do not require a certain kind of technical skills. All that is needed to farm, mine, and exploit natural resources here is strength. And I believe that the industry will soon change in the west. From the current single Resource extraction has transformed into the largest light and heavy industrial factory in the empire. Lower labor costs will make more people choose to build factories in the west. On one side are developed areas with high consumption and high income and high thresholds that are difficult to adapt to survival. On the other side are low consumption. The West has a middle income but no threshold for immigrants to familiarize themselves with the pace of life in the Empire. Where do you think they will choose as their first home in the Empire?”
In fact, there is a more important social issue that Du Lin did not mention, and that is the contradiction between social groups. Even if new immigrants come to the empire and move to economically developed areas, Du Lin will have enough ways to make them cry and shout. Join the West family. This is also the reason why he attaches great importance to immigrants, because these and future immigrants have no foundation at all in this empire. They are like duckweeds without any ability to resist risks, so they need a different approach. The living environment that currently exists in society.
But at the same time, this group of people gathered together and after simple processing and transformation, they also possess a powerful force. This force is not like any group or class currently existing in the empire. They have almost no sense of identification with the Yaoxing Empire and have no regard for it. The top leaders of this country, including the nobles, have no psychological fear.
Henry seemed to understand. He kept nodding, "This is a good business. I can invest some money, two million."
Sandra was thoughtful, but she quickly gave her answer, "I believe in you, Du Lin, so I also invest two million, but I have one request. I want my investment to be as large as possible." Assigned to the water plant.”
There is a water plant under the Orveli Mining Group. The water plant makes money slower than other infrastructure, but the profit margin is extremely scary. Because as long as a person is a human being, he must drink water, and he must drink it every day, and not just once. Nowadays, water plants in the empire have set three to six grades for commercial water according to different water quality. Currently, only the imperial capital has the highest grade six water quality, which can be drank directly and has a natural health-promoting effect on the body. water.
In other places, there are usually three to five levels, ranging from the cheapest bucket of water, which costs one cent, to the bucket of water that costs five yuan for the royal family and big shots. The profits from water can be said to be huge profits! Because all water comes from nature, there is no need for farming, no care, and no need to dig it out with hoe after hoe. As long as you find the water source, there will be a steady stream of profits, so Sandra, who knows something about water plants, please tell me So I set my sights on this seemingly unprofitable business.
Originally, Cleranf also wanted to take over the water plant. Jindis Mining Group Company also has a subsidiary department that operates water plants. These large mining companies actually own more or less water plants. In the early days, when these people were digging holes all over the empire, they would inevitably come across some water sources with very good quality. It would be a pity to throw them away in vain, so they regarded these water sources as compensation for failed exploration. They either managed these water sources themselves. If you start a business, or sell it to others to operate, you know how terrible the profits of the water plant are, and you can really make a huge profit.
"I invest 1.5 million. If possible, I personally hope to invest in a power plant." Perhaps it was Cleaver's speech that suddenly made everyone enthusiastic, and they also realized that this was a country club. The first "dinner party". If you don't take the initiative, there may only be bones and dregs left behind.
In just half an hour, Dulin raised nearly 16 million in investment funds, enough to temporarily build some infrastructure so that the refugees could at least live.
After dividing the cake, Carlos asked in a stiff tone, "Mr. Dulin, how should we solve Mr. Memnon's matter? I learned through a friend of mine that the investigation team from the Imperial Capital did not seem to intend to "Keep Memnon out of office. If he doesn't step down, I think he will have a certain impact on our business in the west."
These capitalists obeyed Dulin's request and did not take action during this turmoil. Their silence seemed to be nothing wrong from an outsider's perspective, but to Memnon it was a betrayal and an injury. He has tried his best to curry favor with these big capitalists and created an environment suitable for investment and development for them. He even relaxed some sensitive policies for them, but what he got in exchange was silence.
No one in this world is irreplaceable, whether it is Memnon or these capitalist friends. Perhaps after Memnon resolves some of the current troublesome matters, he will use his hands to deal with these people. From the current perspective, Memnon may not be able to do anything to them, but what if he really becomes the governor in three years? At that time, the industries of everyone here may face huge risks, which is one of the reasons why Carlos is a little angry.
Another reason is that Du Lin did not contact him, let alone give him a specific quotation and feedback on the formula that could achieve a high temperature of two thousand degrees at that moment.
"The cabinet investigation team has not left yet. The entire empire... no, the entire world's eyes are focused on the west. The price of letting Memnon disappear at this time is too high. I can afford it, but can you afford it? If you can withstand this pressure without any problems, he will disappear from the world before twelve o'clock tonight, as long as you nod." Du Lin took out a cigarette and lit it, he said. The attitude came out a little tougher than before.
Carlos pursed his lips and looked at the others. These people communicated with each other for a moment before Carlos shook his head and said, "Sorry, I have been a little upset by some things recently. Since it is not suitable now, then Let’s just wait and let him disappear when it’s safe.”
Du Lin looked at him and nodded, "It doesn't matter. I understand this feeling. Everyone will encounter something beyond their ability..."
