Cosma Empire

v1 Chapter 290: Buy island [two]

"How many wines did you make a month before?", Du Lin pointed outside the factory and walked out. He is now full of alcohol, with alcohol in the air, and he can already feel his cheeks. It's hot. He is not particularly able to drink, so he is not very interested in drinking, and he does not like things that cannot control his behavior.

Rhodes drank the puree in the cup and drank the cup on aside wooden barrels. These barrels were made of dragon blood wood. After the raw pulp came out, they would be poured into the wooden barrels. Depending on the degree required, you can bottle it after taking it out in stages. Wooden barrels made of dragon blood can absorb impurities and moisture. Generally, fruit wine will be filled for about three days, and higher ones will have a week. After more than a week, the effect is extremely limited, so the brewing method of high-grade wine is to make dracaena into wood residue, and put it into the container with the raw materials to ferment, and directly absorb impurities and moisture in the process.

He followed in a few steps and followed Du Lin, whispering, "At that time we were able to produce a maximum of 20,000 bottles per month, and we supplied about 70% to 80% of local demand. . "

This is just a place for Ilion, which consumes almost a thousand bottles of wine every day. What about the entire empire? Of course, there are not as many tourists here as Irian, but one hundred bottles a day can always be sold. There are 16 states and regions and more than 200 cities in the entire empire. According to this data, the empire will consume at least 20,000 bottles of wine every day.

But this number is far lower than the real number. In some bustling cities, more alcoholic beverages may be consumed every day than Irian, and excluding those areas that are relatively backward and less developed, occupying four percent of the market share. One-tenth, about 10,000 to 20,000 bottles of wine are needed every day, which is a very low conservative figure. The specific number will not be known until the next order comes, but Du Lin is very clear that this number is very low.

"Continue to expand the plant and strive to produce 500,000 bottles of wine every month." Du Lin took out a cigarette and handed it to Rhodes. Rhodes even forgot to pick up the cigarette in Du Lin's hand!

500,000 bottles of wine a month? They almost brewed more than 100,000 bottles of wine in the previous year, and now the volume of one month is three or four times that of the previous year. Rhodes has a doubt. Can they really sell these wines every month? It is important to know that winemaking is not the same as other businesses. Once a specific number is determined, it will be purchased on the market at a fixed point. This requires a contract.

Once a month may have a backlog of wine, it means that a backlog of funds will soon appear. Because of the contract, those suppliers will continuously send in the raw materials for producing 500,000 bottles of wine on time and in volume. Grain is very difficult to keep, and Irian is still by the sea, the air is humid and cannot be stored for a long time. This means that even if their wine cannot be sold, they will have to continue to produce wine, unless compensation for breach of contract.

As soon as he moved his eyes, he realized that Du Lin had handed him a cigarette. He immediately bent down and said thank you. He held the cigarette in his mouth and took out a box of matches for Du Lin before he gave him a cigarette. on. He shook his arm and threw the match to the ground after he extinguished it, and then stepped on it again, Rhodes asked carefully, "Mr. Durin, is this too much ...?"

He went on to say: "And if you want to expand the plant, you need more land, at least four times as much now. We need a warehouse to store raw materials and various things. If the place is small, it wo n’t work at all. Furthermore, we will expand production More people will be recruited ... "

Dooling understood what Rhodes meant. One was that he was afraid that the wine could not be sold and entered a vicious circle. The other was that these plainly needed money.

Looking back at the little land around the winery, Du Lin frowned. Regardless of whether it is the first or fifth district, or the middle districts, the vacant land is already very scarce. With the construction of the eighth district of Ilian, and more and more people who are optimistic about the city joined here, many vacant lands have been built with houses. It is basically impossible to buy a large piece of vacant land connected together. .

If it is possible to build the plant separately in several places, it would be a lot of trouble to do that. Du Lin thought about it and asked Rhodes to go back and prepare. He would go to the city hall to see if it was more suitable. local.

He didn't say hello when he went to the town hall. Scott was not here. The guy was staring in the eighth zone every day. One is to supervise the construction progress, and the other is to coordinate some contradictions. With so many projects in the eighth district starting at the same time, there will definitely be some contradictions or conflicts. For example, your garbage is dumped on my side. His project blocks the sewage pipe of that person. In short, he needs to do a lot of things.

These things seem to be very small things, but they can be easily handled and cause serious trouble. Coupled with the fact that the workers' unions are all around the construction site, there must always be someone who talks and has a certain ability to coordinate all this on the construction site. It is impossible for the mayor to go, only Scott, his confidant.

When he arrived at the City Hall, Du Lin informed his name, and the Lord Mayor immediately met him. Just as he was thinking, now Du Lin has quietly become the largest gold owner of the Ilian City Hall, none of them.

Whether it is his jewellery store, a 20 million-dollar project under construction, or his winery, he can provide a large amount of funds for the management of the Ilian area to support his own governance philosophy. It can also provide tens of thousands of jobs and make an outstanding contribution to law and order and stability in the Irian region.

The mayors of many places are unknown. It is not that they are incapable or that they are unwilling to do something, but that they have no money. For example, road construction. Road construction seems to be very simple. A phrase with more than a dozen letters can write this phrase on paper, but it can be really implemented and requires a lot of money.

Rich people, such as Irian, mayor builds roads if he wants to build roads, and parks if he wants to build parks. So what about poor, underdeveloped cities?

Big eyes and small eyes!

So when I heard that Du Lin came in person, the mayor also greeted him personally. Last time, Du Lin didn't have such good treatment. As his industrial layout became more and more, his status was rapidly improving.

"I know you're busy, so I'll just make a long story short." Du Lin said without further greetings, he said the purpose of his trip, "I want to buy a little land to expand the winery."

The Lord Mayor asked in confusion: "Did I hear that you bought a large area of ​​land?" Du Lin shook his head and said that it was not enough. The Lord Mayor was even more surprised. "How many bottles do you plan to produce each month? Wine and barrel? "

Du Lin stretched out a hand. He didn't ask the mayor to guess. It was a fool's move. "There are 500,000 bottles of bottled wine, and barreled wine is not planned yet."

The mayor raised an eyebrow and suddenly smiled. 500,000 bottles of wine. According to the special tax payment principle currently implemented in the Irian region, he can take a little less tax and calculate it at 50%. If a bottle of wine earns ten dollars, Du Lin must pay Five dollars in taxes. 500,000 bottles, but 2.5 million a month, Du Lin alone paid more than 50% of the total tax revenue in the Irian region, how could he be upset?

He immediately stood up, walked to the sofa set for the guests, and opened a curtain on the wall, revealing the planning map of the entire Ilian area. He pointed to Du Lin and pointed at the map on the wall, and said with a smile, "Come, where you want to draw."

Du Lin was not polite. He stood up and walked over. He carefully looked at the plan. There was no space in the first area, and there was a little in the second area, but they were scattered. The situation in the third district is the same as that in the second district. It seems that there is still a lot of idle land, but the east and the west cannot be effectively connected and utilized. There is some land in the fourth area, and there are three open areas in the fifth area that seem to meet his requirements.

When Du Lin was preparing to point to the fifth area, he suddenly saw an unexpected vacant lot in the lower part of the map, and he asked with curiosity: "Is this the area under the jurisdiction of the Irian region?"

The mayor affirmed Du Lin's question rightly. Du Lin immediately changed his mind and pointed at the block and said, "I want this!"

The mayor immediately made a trip to the land use rights management office ~ lightnovelpub.net ~ signed an agreement with Du Lin, stamped it, and taught Du Lin the documents, "From today From now on, this land is your private property. To be honest, I didn't think you would choose this place, what's the saying? "He smiled and let the people in the Land Rights Management Office leave, and asked this question curiously.

Because Turin chose not any piece of land on the land of Irian, but chose an island about three kilometers away from the coast of Irian. The area of ​​the island is too small for the development of tourism or other projects. At the same time, it is a little far from the coastline of Irian. In addition, there is no landscape on the island. It is an ordinary island covered with vegetation, so It has not been included in the agenda of the tourism development of Ilian.

If it hadn't been for Du Lin who had discovered this place, the mayor would have almost forgotten that he still had an island in his hand.

To the mayor's curiosity, Du Lin said with a smile: "Because it is at sea!"

"Every month I have a lot of wine to be shipped out. If transporting from the city to the port is not only troublesome, I also need to rent a port warehouse. It is better to solve it all at once. Ships can come at any time, and they can load and leave anytime. I need to worry about the thief, it solves a lot of my troubles. "
