Early the next morning, the mayor of Nadak Town, Parker, and a dozen large landowners in the Panoch Valley found Moxie and expressed their willingness to sell the land.
The mayor of St. Beni Town also brought good news. The hills between St. Beni Town and Nadak Town have been successfully converted into grazing land, and the land can be converted into private property.
In the mayor's office of St. Beni Town, Mayor Joseph and Moxi received Parker and his party. Moxi brought a lawyer over and drafted a contract. Parker and the others made a few more modest demands, but Moxi
Can't make the decision...
Mo Xi is a cautious person who does things very carefully. As long as it is not routine work, he will basically ask Chen Mo for instructions first.
Mo Xi called and Chen Mo was already outside the town government yard...
"boss……"
"Hmm. What are you calling about?"
"We have initially drafted a contract. Mayor Parker made a few small requests on behalf of the residents of the valley..."
Parker and his group looked at Chen Mo.
Chen Mo chuckled and nodded: "Tell me, what are your requirements?"
"Half of the residents in the Panoch Valley don't have much land. These residents want to give up their properties in the town and replace their land in the mountains," Parker said.
Chen Mo looked at Joseph: "How much does 100 acres of mountainous land cost if it is converted into private ownership?"
"To meet the needs of Panoch Valley residents first, we can provide 6,000 acres of land, 100 acres, for $10,000. What do you think? There are still 27,000 acres of land left, which will be auctioned secretly. Not all of these lands
It belongs to our town of St. Beni, and the Pinos city government has to take 60% of the funds. The other part of the land belongs to the town of Nadak."
Chen Mo made an OK gesture and looked at Parker and the others: "No problem. For families who don't want the property, each family will be compensated with 200 acres of land and receive US$280,000 in cash."
"Thank you. One more question. We would like to wait until after this year's tax filing season before you pay us cash." Parker said.
"Okay. Any more questions?"
"The city government has no money for road planning in the new pastoral area. You promised to plan roads in the new pastoral area. What is the standard of the road? Can it guarantee the gate to each of our pastures?"
"Of course. These can be written into the contract..." Chen Mo looked at Moxi: "It's all written into the contract."
"Okay, no problem." Moxi smiled, now a little worried about Chen Mo's financial resources.
According to the plan, we will capture the ‘Big Calabash Valley’, and then we will capture the ‘Little Calabash Valley’.
Xiaohulu Valley has a potassium feldspar mine, 100 million in cash, and a debt of 70 million US dollars... It is still in financial crisis, and Moxi is worried that Chen Mo's financial resources are not enough to support subsequent development.
"Mr. Chen Mo, according to our contract, I can get 2,000 acres of mountainous land. Under the livestock management system of the River Valley Animal Husbandry Company, our family's new pasture can raise 4,000 cattle? This is theoretical, and the actual livestock is 3,500.
A cow, it should be possible...but how to solve the problems of cow dung and water source? We can't build a supporting pollution treatment area like the Valley Animal Husbandry." Anthony looked at Chen Mo, how to deal with cow dung, this has always been a boss
Difficult question.
"You have to buy one or several cow dung dehydrators. The price of the entire machinery and equipment is good...the dehydrated cow dung can be sold directly to the River Valley Animal Husbandry Company or to the River Valley Pasture. As for contaminated water, these need to be paid for treatment
, Valley Animal Husbandry and Valley Animal Husbandry can handle it. Selling cow dung minus the cost of sewage treatment, making more than ten dollars per ton of cow dung is no problem. If your family can raise 3,500 cows, it can be done by itself.
Processing these cow dung requires an investment of more than ten or two hundred thousand, and it will be paid back in less than two years. You can visit the factory area of Valley Ranch later..." Chen Mo smiled: "Do you have any questions?"
"There is a primary school in our town with several teachers... We thought, could we call on the residents of St. Beni to do a fundraising event? Build a school in the town of St. Beni... In the future, Nadak Town will also
If it is merged into St. Beni Town, then the population of St. Beni Town will be larger..."
"You don't have to worry about the school." Chen Mo looked at Joseph: "Discuss with the town council and find a good piece of land. The school will be funded by a charity fund, with an estimated investment of 10 million. The town's newly planned hill pastoral area,
We also invest in road construction. The town doesn’t have to worry about these costs..."
Joseph saluted Chen Mo: "Thank you."
"It's the end of the year. The town's funds should have been loaned again this year, right?"
Joseph smiled awkwardly: "Yes. I owe the bank 1.5 million US dollars."
"I will organize a charity auction, and then you will help Moxi. No matter what others do, I will donate a sum of money to build the college. At the same time, I will donate another sum of money to the town to improve the town's public facilities.
There is also a police station in the town, which is doing a good job..." What Chen Mo is most satisfied with is the police station in the town. In the past, Bright used them as private security guards for the ranch: "The police station should expand its manpower. Also.
There is road patrol work, and we should add a few more points. In this way, I will donate 10 Ford pickup trucks to the police station...I wonder if the second-hand drivers can report it to the city police station to change the paint?"
"no problem."
"That's fine... If you give the police a raise, it can't be lower than the salary of our ranch security guards."
Joseph smiled bitterly: "I, I'll try my best..." The police station now has 27 staff members. Most of the town's income is spent on the police station. Let's give the police a salary increase...
"Boss?" Moxi whispered in Chen Mo's ear. Parker and the others next to him were a little stunned.
This is a town hall, is it private?
The police department even demanded a salary increase for the police... But considering Chen Mo's influence in the small town, it seems reasonable.
The police system in the United States is very complicated. The small-town police are almost the domestic auxiliary police. However, the powers of the small-town police in the United States are much greater than those of the domestic auxiliary police. The small-town police here can be equipped with guns...
But in the small town of St. Beni, the police only wear stun guns most of the time. And from the establishment of the police station in the town to the present, there is no record of the use of stun guns...
"The donation will be made this month. At the end of the month, I will contact banks and specialized charities to come over... Don't hold a big ceremony, keep everything simple and low-key. At most, hold a charity dinner..."
"OK……"
Building a school is charity. This year, Chen Mo originally planned to donate a sum of money through a combination of individuals and businesses to offset part of the tax.
Donating money to the town is mainly used to maintain public security in the town and in return for acquiring land from the town. St. Beni Town's support for Chen Mo's industry is still very important...
