Chapter 451 Happy Cooperation
Tang En pondered for a while and continued: "Second, the profit distribution ratio of the later toll roads is unreasonable and must be changed, otherwise there will be no possibility of cooperation."
Tang En didn't care too much about the profits from road construction. In fact, laying a flat and convenient channel for Purandal would only benefit and not harm his future mission goals. Star Diamond Bank's visit now would be like having someone give him a pillow for sleepiness.
However, intelligent creatures in any world have such a stupid problem - they will not cherish things that are too easy to obtain.
Yes, this law also applies to the creatures of Purandar, especially the goblins who like to cut corners and will do anything for profit!
Don't forget that in order to gain greater profits, they even dared to negotiate with the dragon - and the most ridiculous thing is that they were so successful!
Therefore, Tang En had to bargain hard with Galian in terms of interests, so that these goblins who liked to cut corners could conscientiously carry out this project, instead of letting their habits run wild.
"Eighty-two points is very unreasonable for us. We can definitely look for other partners to obtain greater profits."
"But apart from us, no single force in Purandar can take over this project."
Galian is very confident in this. The two richest forces in Purandar, the dragon clan and the goblins, have now merged into one and have become super oligarchs. Star Diamond Bank is a giant. No one dares to Compare it to wealth.
"I know, but I am confident that we can create another Star Diamond Bank."
Gallian was startled: "Are you serious?"
Tang En smiled slightly: "If necessary, I think His Majesty Victor would also be happy to see the emergence of an Ellington Bank or an Illus Imperial Bank."
When Galian heard this, he couldn't help laughing and said: "Believe me, my friend, no one will be willing to use the new bank. Our Star Diamond Bank has business offices all over Purandar, and each user can use it with a crystal card." Cash can be withdrawn at any business location.”
"I know, you have to eat your food one bite at a time, and you have to earn your money bit by bit."
Tang En shrugged: "I won't go too far. In short, it is absolutely impossible to score eight or two. We are about the same as eight and two of you."
"Two of us!? Are you kidding! We are the main investors!"
Gallian jumped anxiously: "How can any investor only get 20% of the profit!? The profit is too low and we won't do it!"
"Is the profit low? I don't think so."
Tang En spread his hands: "If you don't want to, we can talk again. Anyway, I don't agree with what you are proposing now."
Galian gritted his teeth and said: "Then...we will give up another 20% of the profit! I'll give you 40%! I'll just say it directly, this is our bottom line!"
Rivitz's bottom line for Galian is **** points. After all, Star Diamond Bank is such a large enterprise and has to provide huge amounts of funds to lay these road networks. Although a large amount of profits can be expected, the time for the funds to be withdrawn is too long. If the profit transfer is too much, it is better not to do this business.
"Fifty-five."
Tang En opened the fingers of his right hand and said calmly: "You provide funds, manpower, and jobs, and we provide technical support, paving equipment, and raw materials. After the road is completed, the toll collected will be divided into 50 and 50."
"How did you know we were charging tolls!?"
Galian was stunned for a moment, then looked at Tang En in horror. After a pause, he said, "I need to give feedback to my boss."
"Don't worry, I have one more thing. Since we want to cooperate, we will be strategic partners in the future, so I hope to get your unconditional support when necessary - do you understand what I mean?"
"Unconditional support?"
Galian frowned: "It won't do without paying."
"Of course I'll give you money."
Tang En said cheerfully: "Go now, you can come to me anytime in the next few days."
"It only takes a moment, please wait a moment."
Gallian hurriedly ran out of the study, and started shouting halfway: "Eldrokamanda! My man! Come here quickly!"
Although I don’t know what method Galian used to communicate with Rivitz, his efficiency was indeed very fast. In just ten minutes, he ran back in a hurry and said to Tang En crisply: "Boss Agreed, 50-50 split, but there are conditions for agreeing to your third request."
"explain."
"As long as Star Diamond Bank will give you sufficient support for your development in the future, but you are not allowed to get involved in the financial industry - the boss said that he does not want to turn against his business partners. Purandar only needs one Star Diamond Bank, which is enough. Second bank.”
After a pause, Galian said with a very strange expression: "As a friendly reminder, this condition is not only the intention of our boss, but also the intention of the Dragon Clan."
Tang En was startled, dumbfounded. Are those money-grubbing guys from the Dragon Clan so afraid of someone opening a bank and robbing them of money?
Fortunately, Tang En had no intention of opening a bank at all, and what he just said was just a bluff. He simply nodded and said, "No problem."
"Then this is a new contract."
Galian took out the new contract, and Tang En was startled. Levitz was still far away, right? How did Galian get a new contract from Rivetz in such a short period of time?
Space teleportation?
After briefly looking at the new contract, Tang En handed it to Fiona and asked her to review it carefully. Then he looked at Galian with a smile and said, "It seems that this project has fallen on you again?"
"That's right!"
Galian straightened his collar proudly. Although he was only a three-foot-tall goblin, he looked like a successful person with such a serious look.
“The boss decided that the first phase of the project will start from Ellington, first to open up the access to the mountain city of Bein, then to Bein and the stone city of Preston, and then continue to the east to connect to the water city of Paganis, so that the road can connect to the Rhone River water transportation channel.”
Gallian quickly took out a simple map. With the help of the dragon clan, the goblin had the most accurate continental map in his hand. Although it was not comparable to the satellite map, it was quite good. He had already drawn out lines on the map with his pen. Curves, those are the roads they plan to build.
"Going north from Ellington, passing through several towns, connecting with Fort Kaspami, and then continuing all the way north, you can reach the Trace of the Holy Sword, where the Third Army of the Illus Empire is stationed. If the road If the traffic is smooth, the carriage can shorten the transportation time by two-thirds, and the chamber of commerce that transports grain and grass for the Third Army will definitely be happy to purchase the right to use it."
"There is also the Bein-Preston-Paganis line. It has been difficult to sell the ore from Bein and Preston to other places because of the difficulty of transportation. If a flat transportation channel can be built, it can enter Paganis. If you take the waterway, you can easily reach the Shining Coast, and then transport it to the major cities in Purandar through the port city of Fira. This is also an important route for making money every day."
"In addition, Ellington is also a city with great potential. Here you can easily obtain the fruit resources cultivated by the elves in the Emerald Forest, as well as the ore resources produced by the dwarves in the Ambris Mountains. From here, we can provide If we start paving roads from the starting point, the benefits will be very considerable..."
Tang En said to Galian who was chatting with a half-smile, "You still want to collect tolls from me in Ellington?"
Gallian's voice suddenly stopped and he laughed. He just entered the state, so he forgot about this.
Seeing Fiona nod, Tang En signed the contract, and then a bright golden light appeared on the contract, and the phantom of a dragon head flashed away. This contract will be in the hands of the Dragon God Isaac. It will be executed under the witness of Lot, and any party that violates this contract will be punished by Isagolot - including the dragon family.
"You can start raising funds now."
Tang En put away the contract and said: "On the first day of the Dawn Moon, when the permafrost begins to melt, I will prepare all the magic machinery for construction, and your funds and necessary engineering personnel will be ready." It has to be in place and I won’t give you too much training time.”
"Please believe in the learning ability of our goblins."
Gallian said proudly: "It's just about operating machinery. One of our ancestors, Heisuo, who is known as the siege master, can even control giant steel puppets hundreds of meters high! It's just some small machinery. Even if we Even if you lose the knowledge of the past, you can easily regain it.”
"..."
Tang En had given up the idea of complaining and sighed: "In short, as long as you have confidence..."
After sending Galian away, Fiona couldn't help but ask: "Lord, how can you be so sure that they will cooperate with us?"
Tang En snapped his fingers: "Dear Fiona, this is actually very simple."
Dear, dear! ?
Fiona immediately blushed and her heart started beating wildly. She was so immersed in happiness that she didn't even hear what Tang En said next.
Tina glanced at her enviously, then lowered her head silently.
She has gained enough and doesn't need to envy anything more.
"The development of Star Diamond Bank is also to make money, but now their tentacles have spread all over Purandar, and the profits they can make in traditional industries have become less and less. In addition, with the current world peace, local conflicts are unlikely to cause too much demand for arms, so their arms business is also very tangled, a large amount of arms are sitting in the warehouse and cannot be sold - do you think I don't know that what Galian sold me is all warehouse goods?"
"It's just that we have demand and they are eager to buy, so we reached a cooperation."
"But this is not a long-term business after all. Both goblins and dragons are hungry for more wealth. In the market environment that has basically solidified now, if you want to make bigger and more profits, you can only Go innovate.”
"Unfortunately, they don't have the ability to innovate, and we, or rather I, have exactly what they lack."
Tang En raised his status very arrogantly, but Fiona and Tina next to him felt that it was very reasonable.
"So, it became their best choice to cooperate with me to open up new markets and make more profits."
Tang En clapped his hands and said with a smile: "And I can guarantee that if you cooperate with me, you will definitely make money without losing any money."
