Three days later, Butler Lutheran handed over the completed property rights documents to Claude as he said. From this moment on, Claude also became a small landowner with 300 acres of forest land. It was just Butler Lutheran.
His face was not very pretty, and he looked very depressed.
"What's wrong with you? Why are you so unhappy?" Claude asked.
Butler Lutheran sighed and told Claude the whole story. Although Butler Lutheran completed the task of Mrs. Maria presenting the cabin to Claude, he failed to complete the other thing.
It was Lady Maria who asked him to acquire real estate in White Deer Town. There was no clue to this matter, and it could even be said that it could not be completed at all.
Perhaps Madam Maria's impression of White Deer Town was still more than ten years ago, so she raised about 300 gold crowns and thought that this huge sum of money was enough to buy half a street of real estate. She asked Butler Lutheran to buy it
The property facing the street could increase in value at least three or four times after the Royal Capital issued the order of Sterling X and announced plans to develop Bailu Town and build a military port. Selling it would be the fastest and most sought-after.
She thought that she could earn nearly a thousand gold crowns at once, so that she would be much better off financially in two or three years.
It was only when the housekeeper Lutheran went through the property rights transfer procedures at the town office that he discovered that the real estate in the street community of Bailu Town had increased nearly ten times in the past ten years. It was not like what Mrs. Maria said about twenty or thirty gold crowns.
You can buy a building or a shop. With more than 300 gold crowns, you can only buy two double-story buildings at most, and it's not even the busiest and most prosperous neighborhood...
The problem is that no one is a fool. From Mr. Morsan and others planning to open a new route to the Navy Department sending two warships to the public dock area, almost everyone is optimistic about the development prospects of Bailu Town. Therefore, those buildings and shops facing the street
The owners, none of them are willing to sell their property, and at most they rent it to others for business or accommodation.
Claude laughed: "Did Madam Maria specify where to buy it?"
"That's not true." Butler Lutheran answered honestly. He was loyal, but not a good business leader. But Mrs. Maria had no choice but to come to Bailu Town with this huge sum of money.
He is the only person around me who I can trust when doing things.
Claude decided to help him, as a way of thanking Madam Maria for her kindness in gifting him three hundred acres of forest: "Do you have a map of Bailu Town?"
"Yes." Butler Lutheran took out the map from the file bag he carried with him, opened it and placed it on the dining table in front of Claude. Butler Lutheran made many marks on the map. It can be seen that the most popular place in Bailu Town is
He visited all the lively streets, but there was no one suitable for him to buy real estate.
"Give me the pen."
Claude picked up the charcoal pen handed over by Lutheran's butler and drew a big circle in the slum area behind the old street: "I think you can buy real estate here. Three hundred gold crowns is enough to buy it in this area.
Five or six properties have been purchased. Then you take the property you bought to the National Bank for mortgage. As Mrs. Maria, you should be able to borrow 80% of the amount, and you can continue to use the loaned money.
Come and buy the property next to it. Take a loan for the property you bought in this way, and use the loan money to buy the property. Soon this area will belong to Madam Maria."
Butler Lutheran was dumbfounded. Is there such an operation? However, he was not a person who could make prompt decisions. He hesitated for a long time before raising his question: "But, my wife asked me to buy a property facing the street..."
"It's simple. If there is no street in this area, why not just build one?" Claude casually drew a stroke on the map: "Look, a new street has appeared. All the real estate in this area has been bought.
After coming down, not only will a street be built, but also shops and buildings facing the street, all of which will be built into four-story apartments. If Madam is sure that the Kingdom will develop Bailu Town and build a naval base, then there is no need to worry about whether these houses can be sold.
If we go out, just the naval officers who settle here can wipe out all these houses. Especially since this area is so close to the dock, this is their best choice."
"But, but..." Butler Lutheran blushed: "Husband, madam, I can't afford that much money to build a house..."
"No, Madam is rich, but she doesn't know it." Claude laughed: "Besides, it doesn't cost Madam her own money to build the house."
Claude pointed out the window: "Madam can mortgage this forest farm with the National Bank, and the loan money will be enough to build the entire block. In fact, you don't need to worry about the mortgage. You can repay the money after the house is completed and sold.
If you just pay some interest to the bank every month, you will have enough funds to purchase real estate and carry out construction. The money earned by then is not a small amount, I estimate it will be at least two or three times the total loan amount..."
"Lin, how much money can the forest farm borrow?" Butler Ludian was a little breathless.
"A forest farm with 70 hectares of land, based on a 70% loan, should be able to borrow about 15,000 to 20,000 gold crowns." Claude estimated that one acre of mountain forest land is now worth two to three gold crowns.
Krong, seven thousand acres of forest land, that's how much you can mortgage.
"And when building blocks, the wood needed can be cut in the forest farm, which can save a lot of raw material costs." Claude added.
Butler Lutheran acted as coquettishly as a teenage girl: "I, I can't make the decision on such a big matter. Master Claude, can you go to the capital to discuss it with your wife? I can give you the pass.
I vouched for you and helped you handle it..."
Claude sighed softly: "Butler Lutheran, he also knows the current situation of my family. Do you think I can leave? Let's do this. I will write down my ideas into a business plan at night. You
Bring it to Madam to see."
This may be the best way. Although Claude had never participated in real estate development in his previous life, he had never seen a pig running or eaten pork? What's more, many of the business friends he made while following the boss were
I was engaged in real estate, and real estate at that time had become more and more detailed and IQ-based. Yes, it was IQ-based. This is what the boss said. Without some IQ, it is easy to be fooled by those real estate developers who provide considerate services.
Go in and pay them the IQ tax for free.
There is no real estate development market in this other world. At most, you can hire someone to build a house for you to live in or sell it to others if you have a piece of vacant land. There are not even decent real estate developers. Claude decided to use the simplest and easiest way to make money.
This business plan for real estate development must be written in a way that people can understand, and at least Mrs. Maria will know how to deal with it at a glance.
It was easier said than done, but it turned out to be very difficult. Claude spent a night, almost all night, completing this business plan. The reason that forced him to do this was the Butler Lutheran who was always waiting nearby.
I know how important Claude's business plan is to Madam Maria. If it succeeds, maybe Madam Maria will never worry about the lack of money to buy magic materials for potion experiments...
So Butler Lutheran followed Claude regardless of his age, and prepared tea, snacks, supper, etc. so well that Claude was embarrassed to drop his work in the middle and run back to the cabin to sleep.
However, the advantage of having Butler Lutheran around is that there is someone who can refer to it. If Butler Lutheran can't understand it, then Mrs. Maria can't understand it either. But this will greatly increase the workload. Not only does Claude have to
After writing the overall plan, you still need to improve the details. For example, such a large real estate development is definitely not something that Butler Lutheran and Claude can handle. Although Madam Maria is somewhat powerful, she also has some power in Bailu Town.
Prestige, but strong dragons do not overwhelm local snakes. If there are powerful local people to cooperate, it will definitely be smoother and reduce some unnecessary troubles.
Therefore, Claude's suggestion is to attract some well-established and prestigious upper-class people in Bailu Town to participate in this real estate development. Mrs. Maria will moderately give up some shares to make the cake bigger and let everyone share some. At the same time, Claude
It is recommended that Mrs. Maria invest in this real estate development in the name of giving back to her hometown and benefiting her hometown, and try to complete the real estate acquisition before Sterling X releases the White Deer Town development plan. In this way, even if everyone knows the news, the real estate development here has already begun.
OK, no one can make this idea from here anymore...
Here, Butler Lutheran not only attached a new map of Bailu Town, but also specifically marked the geographical environment of the entire slum area and the areas to be acquired and developed. Claude also drew a few simple maps, roughly using the line drawing method.
After describing the renderings of the completed neighborhood, and the nearby public dock area that is to be built as a naval base, even an uninformed person can come to the same conclusion, that is, the houses in this place do not need to be sold.
Finally, Claude emphasized the supporting property management and cleaning and sanitation services such as water, fuel, and sewage to strengthen the security and order maintenance of the entire neighborhood. This is equivalent to transforming a slum into a mid-range community. Lutheran's housekeeper is next to him
The more he read, the more excited he became. Even if he didn't understand business operations, he could still come to the conclusion that the business plan for real estate development written by Claude has a huge potential for making money...
It was already five o'clock in the morning, and Claude had finally finished the entire plan. Butler Lutheran hugged his document bag tightly, like a hen that lays golden eggs.
"I will return to the royal capital right away," Butler Luo De'an said.
Claude was a little surprised: "You don't want to rest first? You stayed up all night too, I'm going to get you some hot food for you to eat to cushion your stomach..."
"No need, Master Claude, I want to hand over the plan you wrote to Madam as soon as possible. Time is urgent. I'm worried that if Madam agrees, we won't have enough time..."
Claude understands what this means. It is only one month away from mid-May. By then, after Sterling X announces the plan to develop Bailu Town, the prices of both stores and buildings in Bailu Town will skyrocket.
Such a rise. Butler Lutheran would have to spend at least four or five days rushing back to the capital and back again. If Madam Maria agreed to implement Claude's plan, the time wasted would represent money...
So Butler Lutheran brought some bread and water without any hesitation and got into the carriage. He was prepared to rest the horse and drive non-stop, day and night, so that he could save about a day.
Soon, five days later, Butler Lutheran appeared in front of Claude again. He brought another letter from Mrs. Maria, which contained only three words: I listen to you.
Claude smiled bitterly. He was just asking for trouble, but he had no choice. Since he had already started, he had to do it. Besides, he could also make some money from it. This was a rare and good opportunity to make money, and with Mary
Mrs. Ya's thighs are huggable, so she doesn't have to worry about being bullied.
Butler Lutheran dictated Madam Maria's request. She only asked for 70% of the shares and profits, the remaining 10% was given to Claude, and the other 20% was distributed to the investors in White Deer Town.
"Let's mortgage my three hundred acres of forest land." Claude thought and said, "I'm embarrassed to take the shares for nothing without paying for it. Anyway, the money was borrowed from the bank and transferred to us.
Circle. Your next main task is to take the forest farm to the bank for mortgage and get the loan money as soon as possible. In the evening, I will take you to contact those who are interested in investing. Going to the slums for acquisition requires their help, which is inconvenient for us.
.”
Claude is going to take Butler Lutheran to find Mr. Morsant's friends who worked with him to plan a new route. They lost a lot of money on this new route, and Uncle Thomas, the former patrol supervisor, also lost his official position.
They had an opportunity to get involved with Lady Maria, which not only repaid the favor owed to their father during his lifetime, but also laid the foundation for the Field family's future human relations network in White Deer Town.
