Here, after seeing off Mrs. Ellie, Ren opened the tent and prepared to welcome the next batch of fat sheep.
About three hours later, at three o'clock in the morning, several local big businessmen came over anxiously.
This proves that they are not as well-informed as Mrs. Ellie, and they probably only found out about Hara Zaro’s visit to the mayor this morning.
"Good morning, Mr. Ackerman."
"Sir, you are really diligent and always stay on the front line of work."
"I heard that you are paid on a daily basis. Generous and kind businessmen like you are rare. It is really admirable."
…………
As soon as they met, these smart businessmen had flattering smiles on their faces and immediately started to flatter them.
For them, this is a basic operation, and it costs nothing to flatter them anyway.
The photoshoot made Ren very comfortable...that's weird, don't think that they can talk easily because of their good attitude.
When they approached him two days ago, they were very enthusiastic, but in fact, they did not relent when they actually negotiated the terms.
The tent area built by Rennes is far away from the city center and has a lot of space for consumption. If it is filled with refugees and shops are opened here, it will definitely make a lot of money.
This is why these businessmen are so enthusiastic. Referring to the various shops around schools on Earth, they are very profitable, and that's just for students.
Ren was also smiling, asked them to sit down, and asked, "Now, can you agree to my conditions?"
He has bought this land, and if he wants to open a store here, he must obtain his consent and pay rent.
A greasy middle-aged businessman with a beer belly laughed and patted his chest: "No problem, we like to cooperate with generous people like you."
In fact, Renn's conditions are very harsh. He not only collects rent, but also wants a share of the profits from these businessmen, although the share is not much.
This is also the reason why they didn't agree last time. Of course, the most important thing is that the merchants are not sure whether there are people living in these tents. They don't know that the war is coming.
Ren nodded, took out a few contracts that had already been drawn up from the drawer, and handed them to them: "Everyone, sign the contract and make money happily together."
Several businessmen reached out and took over the contract. Stanley, an acquaintance of Ren's, was not among them. He was just a small merchant and was not qualified to bargain.
They had read this contract yesterday, but no one signed it immediately.
The fat businessman rubbed his hands, looked at Ren with a smile on his round face and said, "Well, Mr. Ackerman, can the share be cancelled?
We can raise the rent, it's easy to negotiate. "
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone turned their attention to Renn. He asked for a 10% profit share, which meant that for every 10 silver coins they earned, one should be given to Renn.
To be honest, the businessmen didn't want to give it. His conditions were a bit harsh. Renn was not exempt from rent, but also had to take a share. He was very greedy and had a dark heart.
The smile on Ren's face remained undiminished and his tone was calm: "This residential area is more than 2.5 kilometers away from the nearest commercial street and vegetable market, so it's not a short walk.
If there are various shops and stalls in the community, residents will naturally not travel so far, and they will accept it even if it is more expensive.
Everyone is lazy, and there are not many people who would walk an extra 2.5 kilometers for a few copper coins.
All I want is this part of the income, and you can still make the profits you deserve. "
Having said that, who wouldn't be happy if you might earn a little more.
Several businessmen were flattering and flattering, and Renn was very happy to hear it.
You are all right, I am indeed a generous person, kind-hearted, young and promising, handsome...but he just won't let go.
He was not afraid of merchants being uncompromising, because the city hall would also develop nearby vacant land in the future. Susanna had learned that private stalls were not allowed in this area.
If you want to make money and get on the bus, you must follow the "rules". This is also the reason why Renne dares to share the profit.
The Sand Sculpture Protection Association has been recruiting people recently, including ordinary cowboys and some clerical staff. Renn plans to take charge of the property management of the residential area himself.
If you don't sign this contract, don't even think about opening a store here. Even if you are a self-employed person setting up a stall, you will still have to pay the stall fee to the big boss Ren En.
Otherwise, the community property management and security personnel of the Sand Sculpture Protection Association will immediately smash your stall, confiscate your items, and even go to the Public Security Bureau to sue you and ask you to compensate you for a sum of money.
Yes, he is so domineering, and Renne has now successfully been promoted to domineering president, but what he said is:
Gold, you managed to get my attention.
Sure enough, seeing that Renn refused to give in, the businessmen could only pinch their noses and sign the contract with the overlord clause.
"It's a pleasure to work together. Believe me, it's a win-win situation."
Seeing that the dust had settled, Renn put away the contract and announced loudly.
“Happy to work with!”
"Haha, you are too polite."
"We are planning to hold a banquet tonight, and please be sure to show your respect to Mr. Ackerman."
Everyone responded enthusiastically, even if Rennes' contract was a bit harsh, it was still a hugely profitable business.
There are two types of military tents built by Renn, one covering an area of 20 square meters and the other covering an area of 16 square meters.
According to the average family structure of Kangao people, 4,000 military tents are enough to house about 20,000 people, which is almost 4,000 households.
This is the basic necessities, food, housing and transportation for 20,000 people. No matter how frugal one family is, they still have to spend one silver coin a day.
For 4,000 families, one day is 4,000 silver coins, and one month is 120,000 silver coins!
Ren takes 10%, which is about 10,000 silver coins, or 1,000 gold, excluding the self-employed people who set up stalls.
Including the rent, each tent costs about 2 gold coins per month. 4,000 tents is about 8,000 gold coins, and 9,000 gold coins are credited to the account in a month.
The total investment in this business in Rennes is 25,000 gold, which means that the capital can be recovered within three months. This is still a conservative estimate and the minimum standard.
Moreover, Mrs. Ellie invested 5,000 gold coins (one-fifth) and received 12% of the rent, while Ren only invested 20,000 gold coins and received 88% of the rent.
He took out a loan of 10,000 gold coins. As a master-level transcendent, the loan had no interest for one year.
In the remaining gap of another 10,000 gold coins, most of the harvest from killing Marcelo, the money from blackmailing the Bluestone Department and selling the body of Marquis Clow were invested.
Renn currently only has 1,200 gold coins left on him, a fourth-level blood core, a storage ring, and a small amount of resources.
But it’s all worth it and the rewards are huge.
Even Mrs. Ellie, who seems to have been ripped off by Ren, can still make a lot of money. She gets 12% of the rent of 8,000 gold coins, which is 960 gold a month.
She can get her money back in about 5 months, and the war will start in a year, with an unknown duration, and she and Ren have another deal.
After this business, she will earn enough money to advance to the fourth level with the top plan!
When the cannon goes off, there is ten thousand taels of gold!
Selling arms is not the only way to make war fortune.
