Chapter 435 Investment
The formation ceremony of the Canglang Brigade of the Holy Mountain City Militia officially began. More than a thousand people from the entire brigade gathered on the training ground.
A small team of twenty people and a squadron of two hundred people.
All the soldiers followed the instructions of the instructors of each department, lined up in a square formation, and then assembled into a large square formation. The orders were strictly enforced and the discipline was strict. The neat steps were so loud that the dust on the ground was raised to form a dust mist.
roll.
The officers of the Wolf Brigade collectively stood on the podium, and Baron Sergei invited the Duke's special envoy Rammutu to speak first.
There is a microphone in the middle of the podium.
Count Rammutu walked forward. He looked at the fully armed human soldiers in the audience, and he couldn't help but feel various worries in his heart.
Because the humans in the Tedega Hills mixed with the barbarians, most of them have some barbarian ancestry. Therefore, the humans in the Tedega Hills are generally tall, and although their physical fitness is not as good as that of the barbarians, they are much higher than the humans in other places.
Looking at these human soldiers armed with steel, the barbarian count couldn't help but think of the elite imperial army.
The Duke plans to recruit humans to form an army to fill the manpower gap on the front line. Is there really no hidden danger?
Things have not happened and no one can predict the future.
I only hope that those human merchants who have been favored by the Duke will be loyal to the Celtic Duke from generation to generation as they swore.
50 million Reichsmarks are well spent!
"The magic circle for exile in the subspace is too complicated. Although I have learned magic, I am not proficient in it. I am afraid I will not be able to come back after being exiled." Sergey started with a slightly humorous opening, and then turned to ask seriously: "Luke
Sir, who are you?"
Only when you get on a car in Nutao City will you know how good it is. When the upstream and downstream channels of the factory are controlled, aren't these emerging factory owners all bastards in the urn?
Luke said happily: "Leave this matter to me. Does the Baron have anyone in charge in Raging Waves City? I will only build the bridge. What happens next is your business."
By visiting the military camp of the Canglang Brigade, Luke found that the procurement sources of weapons and facilities here were very mixed, even worse than Asan.
The first one is the Inspector General: Luke.
Luke smiled and said: "It seems that I should form a team of adventurers. Being the boss is much easier and safer than taking risks alone."
Although he made this request, Baron Sergei did not hold out much hope.
Luke knew that Sergey had already doubted his identity, and he said helplessly: "If you think so, there is nothing I can do. No matter what evidence I produce, you will have reason to doubt me."
"Yes..." Luke thought about it and added: "A little bit. As an adventurer, it is inevitable that you will receive commissions from some powerful people. Some people are familiar with me and will directly transfer the tasks without going through the Adventurers Association.
Leave it to me and don't let the association earn agency fees."
After making sure that this conversation would never be leaked, Baron Sergei sat back at his desk, with Luke sitting opposite him.
"Any problem that can be solved with money is no problem!" Sergey said to Luke: "When you go back to Raging Waves City this time, can you ask your friend to help us?"
"Other investments? What investments?" Baron Sergey asked.
You are an army with countless hopes!
If it is to build hospitals, schools, roads, electricity, water power, agriculture... these are public welfare investments that provide convenience to the people at the bottom, they will definitely be willing to invest their money."
Baron Sergey continued to read out the officer appointments, while Count Rammutu standing aside had a dark face the whole time.
The formation ceremony continued.
This shows that these human businessmen from the Holy Mountain are actively contacting the world market.
The equipment I bought for the Canglang Brigade was all shipped in this way."
Close the door, set up restrictions, and turn on various anti-eavesdropping detection magic mechanisms in the room.
Luke's brief speech ended, and the scene became uncontrollable again.
If these non-profit charities are willing to invest in these unprofitable projects, wouldn’t businessmen like you be able to focus on investing in profitable projects!
Hearing that investment would decrease, Baron Sergey felt more uncomfortable than losing money in his own business.
Luke replied: "Of course it's not a census of the entire territory. I'm afraid it will take several years. Only the larger towns will be censused. If the barbarians don't cooperate, skip it.
Therefore, it is very difficult to attract investment.
In you, I see the prototype of an elite army. You are physically strong and are the best soldiers anywhere in the world; you have outstanding instructors who are dedicated to their duties; and you have donations that are willing to spend a lot of money to purchase advanced weapons from all over the world.
By.
Luke thought for a while and said: "The charity will send people to Tedga Hills to conduct a census, and make an overall plan on what projects to invest in and how much to invest based on the population and settlement density.
Sergey hesitated and asked again: "I know that for businessmen in Raging Waves City, investing in factories here during the war is very risky. But we still have a very big gap in funds and there are too many things that need to be built.
, the suppliers all asked us to pay cash.
"Yes!" Baron Sergei took out a piece of paper from the drawer, wrote down the contact person's address and name with a quill, and handed it to Luke: "Just look for him when you get to Raging Waves City, and he will take care of the follow-up matters.
Handle it well.
If building a factory doesn't make money, they will feel bad.
Luke replied: "I can talk to him. It's just that your goods have passed the Raging Waves City Customs. How can they be transported into Tedga Hills? I just walked through the southern passage. I can only transport some small items. Bulk items must go through the Empire.
cordoned off area."
Baron Sergei couldn't believe his ears. He asked in surprise: "These are investments that will hardly see any profit in a short period of time, or even have no profit at all. Is there really anyone who would invest in these investments that are completely unprofitable?"
Project investment?”
The only thing that made him happy was that Luke would not continue to win in the final decisive battle at the Duke's Castle.
Luke's jokes made it difficult for Sergey to determine the origin of the man in front of him.
He had no choice but to say: "Whether it's because I'm overthinking it or not, I just want to know if you have any high-level connections in Raging Wave City?"
Baron Sergei could not understand the brain circuits of the wealthy people in Raging Waves City, but when building a factory, a large number of workers would be concentrated for accommodation. Medical care, education, transportation... are all problems that need to be solved.
The new Haijiao Port is now managed by Yanyang Group and belongs to Luke's private treasury.
Luke was originally thinking about how to tie the emerging factory owners in Tedga Hills to the front of Raging Wave City. Unexpectedly, these factory owners had already opened the way and handed over the rope.
After the inauguration ceremony of the Wolf Brigade was over and Baron Sergei saw off the Barbarian Earl, he invited Luke to his office alone.
"This..." Baron Sergei said in embarrassment: "There are not many big cities in the Tedga Hills. Most of the population live scattered in the mountains, and the barbarian tribes do not like outsiders to approach."
Luke pretended to think about it for a moment and then replied: "I actually know someone. This friend of mine was originally a gang member at the port of Cape District in Raging Wave City. Later, he was lucky enough to join the Cape District Secret Service with Governor Meteor.
Now in charge of Haijiao Port Customs.
Luke's answer was flawless, and Sergey could only bite the bullet and express his appeal: "Rush City is now the World Trade Center, and it is cheaper and more convenient to pick up many things from Raging City than from the place of origin. Just because Tedga
During the war between the hills and the empire, Raging Waves City also joined the blockade of Tedega Hills.
But...if someone is playing tricks on the Raging Waves City Adventurers Association, even if they call in the files, there will definitely be no problem."
"You don't have to worry about how the goods come in. Fighting is a war, and making money is making money. As long as the goods can enter and exit Raging Waves City smoothly, there are many ways to send them to Tedega Hills.
And the Duke's Castle has no money at all to provide it to us.
Can you help us find businessmen or institutions willing to invest in Tedega Hills this time? The land and manpower here are very cheap!"
"An adventurer... The Adventurers Association has my files, which are all public information. The Baron should be able to check them."
Baron Sergei's appointment was announced to have to be terminated. He ignored Count Rammutu's ugly face and invited Luke to come forward and say something to these admirers.
This is to prevent someone from falsely reporting local conditions and defrauding investment funds.”
Count Rammutu brought the congratulations of the Celtic Duke, and after a short speech, he was greeted with warm applause from the Wolf Brigade.
However, there are still many conditions required to obtain investment approval.”
Businessmen invest to make money.
Luke answered: "There are many non-profit charities in Raging Waves City that accept charitable donations and use them to help people in need.
Luke shook the paper in his hand and said: "I happen to know a few heads of charity organizations. It would be better for me to contact them first and use my on-the-ground experience to introduce the current difficult situation in the Tedega Hills. Then your people will propose
Apply.
When the name was read out, the entire training ground burst into cheers, and the neat formation suddenly became scattered. The external instructors blew their whistles and tried to stop them, but as outsiders, how could they understand that a
What does the invincible human Hercules mean to the humans of Tedga Hills?
in addition……"
A portion of the taxes collected must be paid to the City Government Affairs Office, but the tolls from smuggling are all your own.
"Very good! Everyone knows that I am an adventurer. I have been to many places and seen armies in many places. Some armies are invincible and invincible; some armies are just like bandits and stragglers.
I hope you will practice every training subject well and be ready for the real battlefield as soon as possible.
Some of the things we buy will be transferred through Raging Waves City. We also want to purchase machinery directly from the factories in Raging Waves City, and we also want to sell products from Tedega Hills.
However, Luke said: "It is impossible for businessmen from Raging Waves City to invest in building a factory in Tedga Hills, but there is hope for other investments."
Sergey did not expect that Luke would have such a friend with real power in Cape Port Customs. If this path is opened, not only will it save a lot of money purchasing factory equipment now, but the things produced in the future can also be sold through Raging Wave City.
all around the world.
Sir, is there anyone among the dignitaries in Nutao City you know who can provide us with some help?"
Sergey asked: "What are the requirements?"
I have already proven at the Holy Mountain Hercules Arena that the human race can train excellent strong men. The next person to prove that the human race can train excellent soldiers... is you!"
Then Baron Sergei, the captain of the Wolf Brigade, led the soldiers of the Wolf Brigade and read an oath of loyalty to the Celtic Duke to the Duke's envoy.
The instructors even used sticks to beat those soldiers who were too excited before they gradually rearranged their formations into order.
However, Tedga Hills is in the middle of a war and is still on the disadvantaged side of the battlefield. Foreign investment may be wiped out if something goes wrong.
In any case, investment is based on headcount and demand. If there are fewer people involved in the census, the investment may be less."
The philanthropists in Raging Wave City really do charity!
Sergey asked eagerly: "How do I contact these charities?"
Sergey looked at Luke, trying to see any flaws, but he couldn't see any.
Although he was unprepared, Luke walked up to the microphone.
Sergey looked at Luke: "I checked, but the Holy Mountain Adventurers Association does not have your complete file. Your adventurer registration is in Raging Waves City, and the Holy Mountain Adventurers Association needs to obtain it from the Raging Waves City Adventurer Association.
Information, this takes time.
"I have come into contact with many adventurers due to business needs, and you are different from them. You have a certain temperament, especially in the speech just now, you are more like a leader than me."
Luke said with a smile: "In Nutao City, money is just a number to many people. What the wealthy people in Nutao City like to hold most is charity receptions, which not only allows them to discuss business, but also earns them a good reputation as a 'philanthropist'.
Finally, there is the formal appointment of officers in each department.
Sergey's request is easy to handle, just find any dock gang to handle it for him.
But building a hospital doesn’t make money, and they don’t care at all because they already got what they wanted.”
"Quiet! Soldiers!" Luke was very angry. His voice was louder than the stereo and spread throughout the entire training ground with a powerful momentum. All the soldiers immediately fell silent and quickly returned to their positions to stand at attention.
Haijiao Port used to be a smuggling port, but now smuggling has been legalized, and anything can be done as long as you pay money."
Seeing that Baron Sergei was so cautious, Luke asked: "Baron, what important matter are you going to talk to me about? You actually sealed the entire room, just to be exiled to the subspace."
"Please give Mr. Luke more help in philanthropic investment. On the barbarian side, I will do my best to persuade you, but I guarantee that the human race will definitely cooperate with the census.
There are so many people in need in Tedga Hills!”
Luke said sincerely: "It is also my wish to help people in need. Due to wrong policies, Tedga Hills has fallen far behind the mainstream world, and the civilians at the bottom are living in very poverty.
I will do my best to reach out to as many non-profit charities as possible to bring more philanthropic investment to Tedga Downs."
