Chapter 91: visit
It was past six o'clock in the afternoon when John returned to the manor, just in time for dinner. Although he drank a lot with Baylor, John's metabolism was twice that of the average person, so he was sober when he returned to the manor.
During the meal, several people reported on their recent work. There were basically no major issues. Lambert in the dock area handled it very well, probably because there were no major issues.
After dinner, John found Kane and Lambert to chat on the balcony of his room.
"I may have to stay in the company for a while, and I have a lot of things to deal with at the beginning. And Kenny said that our funds will start to run out of money at most three months at this level." Kane has been recruiting people recently. pass. And because John required them to be on duty after fifteen days of training, which was about military obedience and discipline.
So John transferred the manor's cook, Hart, to use it for Kane. Hart's marksmanship was not good, but he was familiar with the patterns and laws of the army.
All expenses incurred during this period shall be borne by the company, but the first month of employment is not much, and the second month is the normal salary. Have breakfast and then go to work.
After the second month, only those who were willing to stay signed a five-year contract with the company. It was very domineering, but there were also many people participating. John asked Kane to recruit according to character and physical condition.
At present, the company has recruited an additional eighteen young guys who look good, some of whom are hunters. For this reason, John purchased a large piece of open space nearby and built a dormitory camp for them to live in.
"There are only so many people. Wait for a while to see the demand for recruitment. And the government's funding has just come down, and it has given a lot." John took out five thousand dollars from the packet and gave it to Kane.
"The police station hasn't been doing anything recently, and everyone clocked in step by step. Nick is very good at handling things and is a very good detective. Dorom and Billy cooperated very well, and they dealt with things a lot faster, the case in the dock area. It is continuing to decrease." Lambert also reported on the situation in the dock area.
"I heard that your case is closed?" Kane talked about the police station after taking the money.
"It's over, it's really him, you guessed it." John praised Kane, and then told him about the general process of the case.
"I really don't know why, don't be in a state of begging for death if you have a chance to live." John sighed with emotion on Mason's courage.
"Maybe he has his own reasons, who knows." Kane didn't think much about it.
"What do you think the director will do to him?" Kane asked again.
"I don't know, but at least he won't be tortured before he dies. It's pretty good in my opinion."
"By the way, Mr. Edwin seems to have bought the neighborhood here, and I don't know what to do." Kane mentioned the recent situation of building fences around here and starting the enclosure.
"Actually, I asked William to buy it." John said.
"You? I'll go, where did you get so much money??" Kane said in surprise, and Lambert also had a surprised expression.
He secretly went to see it after get off work himself, and summed up almost all the places nearby. The money that is required is not a small amount at all.
"Some opportunities are made a lot, and it's like a bank loan, and then I bought it." John explained casually.
"Then what are you going to plant? How many people will you recruit?" Lambert asked aloud.
"The manpower problem is left to William to handle, I don't care." John
"As for the land, part of it is used to grow tobacco. William said that after sending someone to investigate and wipe it, he concluded that part of it is suitable for growing this. The remaining part needs to be built, and the tobacco will be sold directly to Mr. Edwin after the tobacco is harvested. He has a few cigarette factories, so he doesn't have to worry about sales, the only thing he has to worry about is natural disasters." John also asked similar things, and this answer came from William.
"Then how much can you earn a year?" Kane was curious about the income.
"After getting on the right track, it is estimated that it will not be officially cultivated until next year. The total income for one year is probably more than 10,000, but the initial investment will be 70,000 or 80,000, plus some weather, rain, maintenance and the like. , the remaining net profit is about ten thousand." John told Kane about the answer he got from William.
"So now you're a tobacco tycoon?" Kane asked in surprise.
"It doesn't count yet, but the land tycoon in Blackwater Town definitely counts." John nodded smugly.
"Damn it! You were a bounty hunter before, how did you become like this in a blink of an eye?" Kane looked at John rubbing his head with a look of confusion on his face.
"Let's be lucky." John remembered what Kolov had said, that his experience in more than a month was more wonderful than others' life, and he also thought about it.
"By the way, I will distribute some of the tobacco to you as your personal benefit." John talked about his plans.
"So good? Then can I stop doing it? Fishing and basking in the sun all day or something." Kane said in surprise, and by the way, he mentioned his dream of salted fish.
"One mu a year, you can work as long as you want. After 30 years, you will have at least 30 mu of high-quality tobacco pastures. This is your extra income in addition to your salary. But five years ago, if either of you left Yes, the land will be reclaimed but there will be an amount of compensation, half of the value, and the full amount will be reclaimed over five years. How about it? It's good for you two." John said with a smile.
"Damn it, you are too good at buying people's hearts. Lambert and I have decided that we will follow you in the future and become bigger and stronger." Kane pretended to express his gratitude.
In fact, the current state is similar~www.NovelMTL.com~ It's just that John gave them some very practical things.
"Don't think I'm joking, I'll ask someone to get the contract tomorrow." John vowed.
"Let's say goodbye first. You'll make us both run away." Kane waved his hand.
"Are you sure? This is a free gift. If you miss this time, you may have to wait for a long time." John said jokingly.
"When you say that, I seem to be at a loss if I don't agree, but don't do it for now. Let's wait until next year when we can plant here." Kane thought about it and then rejected this attractive offer.
Lambert naturally didn't have much opinion, because he also felt it was inappropriate.
The three chatted about other things, but at about 8 o'clock in the evening, a person unexpectedly came to John's manor.
"An old cowboy?" John asked, listening to Billy's report.
"Yes, very handsome, about fifty or sixty years old." Billy nodded and gave a general description of his appearance.
"About 1.9 meters tall, with a strong build, riding a tall Sugarland warm-blooded horse."
"Kolof? Why did he come to see me?" John asked himself.
"Your friend?" Kane said on the side.
"Well, a good friend, he and I often fish there." John pointed to the direction of Quaker Bay with his chin.
"There should be something to come to visit so late." Kane guessed.
"You go and bring him in." John said to Billy.
Billy hurried off when he heard it.
"Let's go, let's go down together, let's talk to you guys, he's a very interesting person."
John said to Lambert and Kane.
