Victory in Life
Chapter 678
Chad doesn't mind, he knows that most of the time, knowing too much will only be troublesome, especially since he's not a tough guy.
Grateful, Chad quickly excused himself and walked to the podium.
Chad then began giving unnecessary opening speeches to introduce a piece of land for the sake of formality.
Meanwhile, Mister Powers and Jasper began chatting in private below.
"Mr Laine, the higher-ups declare that as long as what you're talking about is the truth, then we're willing to give you the best discount." Mr. Powers said.
Jasper was not surprised, it was a huge investment that every city in the country needed, the Reed City's attitude on the matter was quite satisfactory.
"What's the specification?" ask Jasper.
"The tax paid for your business in Reed City for the first five years will be free for the first two years, then for the next three years, there will be a 50% discount, he said%, the tax for the next five years after that will also be halved, the tax will only be paid in full after the ten-year mark in return, Mr. Laine, you must employ at least 4,000 local workers." obviously Mr. Powers.
"No problem, there's no way I'm looking for workers from elsewhere, it's a very logical request" Jasper replied.
The discussion of the two began well and Mr. Powers smiled as he continued, "The city government will be in charge of traffic and road repairs around your electronic equipment factory, the city government also promised at least three public transport routes to your factory."
"In the future, if Reed City starts building railroads, the city government promises that your electronics factory will be the first target we consider."
Jasper nodded expressionlessly, pointing at Chad, he smiled. "Then the most important question arises, what about the plot of land?"
The current situation is that Jasper wants a piece of land for his factory, while the city government also needs Jasper's investment of 600 to 700 million as well as a quota of work, it is a situation of equal profit.
However, the problem now is that Marcus and his friends want to make Jasper lose money, and Jasper refuses to let that happen.
Therefore, the existence of Marcus and his comrades had already influenced the plans of the city government and the development of Reed City.
After thinking for a moment, Lord Powers clenched his jaws as he thought back to what the higher-ups had said to him and he replied, "To be frank with you, lord Laine, the city government is on your side, after all there are major problems with PT Fortune's internal systems, we have actually investigated them in secret."
"All that doesn't matter to me, I'm just a businessman, but Marcus doesn't seem to want to leave me alone, I plan to buy this piece of land with 200 million but because of them, I'll end up paying at least 400 to 500 million for it, does this look cost-effective to you?" Jasper spoke calmly.
In the face of Jasper who was unwilling to give up, Master Powers felt frustrated as well as irritated, but that was the current situation, and finding a way to resolve this was difficult.
Not to mention that Jasper's request was indeed very rational and reasonable, the dignity of the city government was at stake if anyone knew of this.
"No matter what happens at the auction today, the city government will only take 200 million from you to transfer the property on your behalf." Mr. Powers promised on behalf of the city government.
Jasper smiled calmly but not surprised, instead he asked meaningfully, "Will the city government be interested in watching the show?"
Hearing that, mister Powers looked confused and shocked.
