Chapter 305 Comfort
Chapter 305 Comfort
Meanwhile, in Huidun City, since the beast tide that was the source of the disaster, the development of the entire territory has not been delayed by this beast tide. On the contrary, many previously difficult demolition matters have been handled by the beast tide.
Nowadays, the population of the territory has gathered together in large numbers, and with the various ideas and workshops and factories that Chen Cheng has come up with, it now has the appearance of an industrialized city.
The ones who suffer the most here are the former small nobles.
Although Huidun promised to rebuild their territory, the territory without its subjects would be nothing more than a wasteland.
Fortunately, Chen Cheng set up an exchange, which attracted merchants from all over the world to trade here, and this also led to the construction of many new factories in the local area.
Although these small nobles have lost their subjects, they still have their land. They can make a lot of money by renting the land to others to set up factories, or by setting up factories themselves.
"Hey, Sauron, how are the performances of your factories recently? I don't know what happened to my factory. The companies that originally signed contracts with me have now terminated the contracts. They would rather lose money than take my goods.
If this problem can't be solved, I'm going to be in big trouble.
I rented this land, and I am so anxious now."
The merchant named Soran also looked sad and said:
"Who says it's not true? I'm in the same situation. Not only can we not sell our goods, but even the supply of raw materials has been cut off. Isn't this going to kill us?"
At this time, several businessmen who had set up factories in Huidun City began to complain, and as they complained, these businessmen all thought of Brusto, who now managed the business in Huidun City.
"We can't go down now. We have to go to Bryusto and see what he has to say."
With this instigation, a large group of businessmen flocked to Brusto's mansion.
And Brusto has been worried about this recently.
His own business was also affected, but because his stall was large, he could still make some profit. However, those merchants who followed him in Huidun City were now facing the most difficult time.
Just yesterday, he asked his son to take the financial report to Brown to see. He also wanted to see if Brown had any suggestions.
But in the end, the fat man came back and told him what Chen Cheng said, which coincided with his own words.
So Bruce didn't go anywhere today, he just waited in his house for the merchants to come.
His purpose was to stabilize the hearts of these businessmen. Now most of the people in Huidun City work in the factories opened by them. If they can't hold on and go bankrupt, the economy of Huidun City will collapse.
By then, Huidun will not let him go.
The second thing is that if there is still someone who cannot stabilize himself, then he will be prepared to take over that person's entire business. Anyway, he just has to survive this most difficult month. When the next month comes, those businessmen will naturally not be able to help but come to beg them when they see others making money.
Soran and the others did not expect that Bruce would be so easy to talk to. He directly asked the butler to lead them into the mansion.
When they saw Bruce, all the businessmen started to make a noise.
And Brusto also knew what they meant. It was simply that he could not hold on any longer and wanted him to give them a definite answer.
Now Bryusto also had an idea of what was going on, so he didn't yell at them, but drank his tea leisurely.
Seeing this, Soran asked them to be quiet, then looked at Bruce and said:
"President Sto, seeing how relaxed you are, could it be that he has come up with a plan?"
Brusto took a sip of tea and said slowly:
"Of course there is a way, but I don't know if you believe me or not."
When these people heard this, they naturally agreed.
"President Stowe, how could we not trust you? Otherwise, we would not have listened to you and opened a factory here."
"Well, I'll show you a way out. That's dragging."
"I believe that you all have some assets, and it has only been less than two months. Although you haven't made much money in the past two months, you must have made a lot in the previous two months.
Now someone wants to deal with the Earl, but can the Earl be dealt with so easily? Don't forget that Princess Phipsa is now the Minister of Finance.
Moreover, Huidun City now has an exchange. Those bastards have lost contact in the past two months and must have lost a lot of money.
I guarantee that they will only be able to hold on for a month at most. They will definitely not be able to hold on by next month.
When they want to come back and do business with us, we will be in the right in the contract negotiation, and we will have the final say on how to sign the contract in our favor."
Although they felt that Bruce was fooling them, there was nothing they could do about it. The only option now was to delay.
And just as Bristol said, there is an exchange now. At worst, they can go to the exchange and look around, and maybe they can do business with merchants from other kingdoms.
And Bryusto saw that he had made his point clear, so now he had to get some benefits for himself.
"Of course, if some of you want to give up, you can come to me and I will take over your factory at the market price."
But Bruce's next sentence aroused the vigilance of these people. They were also experienced in the business world and knew that Bruce always adhered to the principle that a thief never leaves empty-handed.
If he dares to take over his half-dying factory, there must be some profitable business behind it.
Let’s not talk about what’s far away, let’s talk about what’s near.
This exchange is located in Huidun City. After their factory produces products here, they don’t have to worry about sellers at all. They can sell them directly here, and even save on shipping costs.
The reason why they say they have no business is that they want to wait for the partners who have signed the contract to come to them, so that they can get compensation and have the upper hand in negotiations.
Another thing is that most of the people who can come here to do business now are merchants from other kingdoms. Not to mention the freight, matters such as customs clearance are a big hassle for these small merchants.
And just as Bruce said, they are not at the end of their rope yet, they are just worried whether this situation will continue.
"Well, we can still hold on for now. When we really can't hold on any longer, we will definitely come to you first, President."
At this time, the owners of several factories that were still able to hold on immediately responded.
Some companies that could not hold on any longer signed transfer contracts with Bruce on the spot.
And Bruce did not cheat them in this regard, nor did he lower the price for them. Instead, he settled with them according to the market price.
Of course, Bryusto wanted these people's factories not for the factories themselves, but for the land under their factories.
Although most of these lands were rented from nobles, he only obtained the right to use them. However, with the current development momentum of Huidun City, the price of these lands will rise sharply in the future.
And this can be considered as an early investment.
