Chapter 1112 Dean Slott’s plan (seventh update, please vote for me)

Chen Zhao noticed that the recent situation in the town was not very good.

The unemployment rate is as high as 20%, which is a very scary number.

In the past, many people relied on breweries for work and life, and one-stop sales and transportation accounted for a large part of the jobs.

Calls to rebuild the brewery have been loud since it caught fire.

At the beginning, the new mayor Afat proposed to rebuild the brewery, which won the support of the townspeople and defeated the competitors.

However, after Afat came to power, he did not follow through on his previous promises.

He actually planned to engage in agriculture and borrowed a huge loan from the bank.

A full $200 million in funding.

What is the concept of two hundred million US dollars?

The agricultural output value of the greater Los Angeles area is approximately this number.

But Afat actually spent 200 million US dollars on agriculture in Dashan Town.

Of course, he also knew that the land in Dashan Town was not suitable for growing crops.

Because the salinity level of the land in Dashan Town is too high.

Therefore, a large part of the US$200 million is actually used to desalinize the land.

But it turned out that Afat's idea was too naive.

The salinity value of the land in Dashan Town was much higher than he expected.

A large amount of money was invested to desalinize and treat a piece of land.

Then the crops were planted, and every few days they would all die.

After retesting, it was found that the salinity of the deep soil was also not low.

If it were to be fully dealt with, it would require not $200 million, but $2 billion.

Two hundred million dollars is enough to treat several hundred acres of land. How many crops can be grown on several hundred acres?

Relying on hundreds of acres of land to repay a $200 million loan, it is estimated that it will take hundreds of years.

The result was that the bank was angered, and a large amount of land in the town was forcibly expropriated by the bank.

Now half of the land in Dashan Town is in the hands of banks.

Under normal circumstances, who owns the land has nothing to do with the residents of the town.

But in the hands of banks, the problem becomes serious.

Because banks can sell to whomever they want.

It would be fine if someone like Chen Zhao buys land to build a house or use it as his own back garden.

If it were sold to a chemical factory, the residents of the town would probably have a death wish.

The people in the bank don't care whether the people in the town object to it or not.

For them, whoever offers the highest price will sell.

The construction of chemical plants in the United States is difficult to obtain approval from local governments.

Therefore, many chemical plants are located in remote areas.

But now the town government still owes a large amount of money. If you want to object, you must first consider the bank's attitude.

But this matter has nothing to do with Chen Zhao.

Anyway, Chen Zhao doesn't rely on anyone in the town to make money.

Moreover, Chen Zhao has a green card and has no right to raise objections to the new mayor.

Anyway, they chose the new mayor themselves.

The sins committed by God can be forgiven, but the sins committed by oneself cannot be lived.

The new mayor, who has high ambitions but low ambitions, indeed has no management skills.

During the campaign, the slogan he shouted louder than anyone else was to eliminate unemployment.

After taking office as a result, the unemployment rate exceeded historical records.

Chen Zhao occasionally passed by the gate of the town government and saw people blocking the office building to protest against Afat's resignation.

Chen Zhao is considered an outsider here and does not even have the right to vote. Apart from verbally supporting Dean Slott, there is no way to influence the town's vote.

"I have already arranged for people to spread the word in the town, why not let me come back and continue the momentum of becoming the mayor." Dean Slott said.

Chen Zhao glanced at Dean Slott, and he was indeed an old fox.

This method is countless times higher than that of the new mayor.

In the past, Dean Slott didn't have a very good reputation.

But it did accomplish a lot of practical things.

Let’s not talk about Dean Slott’s personal morals, at least his abilities are there.

"Chen, if I say, I hope you can invest in building a brewery, what do you think?" Dean Slott asked tentatively.

"This..." Chen Zhao really didn't expect that Dean Slott would make such a request.

You must know that Chen Zhao has no idea about running a brewery and does not know how to manage it.

"Chen, when the brewery was here, sales have been very good in the Los Angeles area, with profits of millions of dollars every year, and sales are very stable, and these sales have not disappeared. I still have those dealers' Contact information, so opening things up is easier than a new brand.”

"Mr. Slott, I really didn't intend to do this."

Chen Zhao has always stayed away from industries that he is not familiar with.

Because I am not familiar with it, I am worried about losing money.

And managing a company can be very cumbersome.

Chen Zhao didn't want to trap himself because of this.

"Chen, if you are afraid that you don't know how to manage, you can leave it to a professional manager. Moreover, your old friend Bant is an old employee of the brewery. The taste of the wheat beer he adjusts is inherited from his ancestors. That's why Craftsmanship, so he’s always been an unavailable taste tuner for breweries.”

"How much money do I need to invest to rebuild the brewery?" Chen Zhao asked.

"At least five million dollars."

Chen Zhao can afford five million US dollars.

But this is investment, not playing house.

Especially this is an industry that Chen Zhao is not familiar with.

"I can't answer your question right now. I need to think about it again."

"Okay, I'm waiting for your good news."

Chen Zhao generally knew Dean Slott's tricks.

I just want to invest in building a brewery on my own, and then gain popularity and regain my position.

But this also means that his interests in Dashan Town are tied to Dean Slott.

I don’t know if it was Dean Slott’s impromptu idea or if he had planned it for a long time.

However, if the conditions are right, Chen Zhao would rather cooperate with Dean Slott than with an idiot like Afat.

Dean Slott knew the truth of stopping when asked and did not continue to pester Chen Zhao.

After Fali and Azina came out of the supermarket, they left.

"Fali, let's go to Bant's house for lunch."

"OK."

Chen Zhao took out the phone: "Bant, are you at home?"

"I'm here, Chen, what are I doing? Do you want to come over?"

"Me and Fali are too lazy to cook, so we plan to have a meal at your house. You won't turn us away, right?"

"Come here quickly. I've been at home alone for two weeks. Mary and Ken are busy with their own affairs and don't have time to come back. I eat alone every day. It's great that you can come and eat with me." Bant welcomed Chen very much. A family.

"We are empty-handed this time, and we didn't bring any gifts."

"I'd better bring nothing with you and bring gifts every time. It would be too troublesome for me to prepare gifts every time I go to that house." Bant was outspoken and said whatever he wanted to say.

"Then let's go there."
