Chapter 345 Cooperation and Support

Although Baron Hamet, who went to Wubei Territory for investigation, has not returned yet, the cooperation between Roning and Vitorino can be finalized in advance.

Vitorino was skeptical about Roning's previous proposal, but now the other party has transformed into the lord of Rapids Island, and the location of Rapids Island is very good.

After all, he has been the lord of Pointed City for many years and still has some knowledge. He vaguely guessed whether His Majesty the King wanted to use the Wushan family to balance the Screaming Island.

As this speculation sprouted, Vitorino naturally became more and more interested in cooperating with Roning.

This may be an opportunity for the Dennis family to grow, and he must seize it.

After some discussion, the content of the cooperation between the two parties was summarized into three main points:

First, he needs the Dennis family to provide him with enough craftsmen and professionals to build a simple dock and a formal port in the future.

Secondly, he needs the Dennis family to train him and provide experienced captains, sailors and other related personnel.

Finally, Ronin needed the Dennis family to build a dock on the Rapids Island. He didn't want to keep buying warships and cargo ships from the Earl's family on the Screaming Island.

The Dennis family was quite good at these aspects, and Viscount Vitorino had no objection to the three points of cooperation.

It was just the way of cooperation that the two disagreed.

Ronin originally wanted to use the form of "buyout", such as paying the other party a certain amount of gold coins to let the other party complete these things for him.

But the other party's offer moved him-

The construction of the port requires 300,000 gold coins, and the construction of the dock and the transfer of shipbuilding technology and training require 800,000 gold coins.

In addition, Ronin also needs to pay the workers' wages and provide food and accommodation.

Although the other party also said that only a deposit of 300,000 yuan is required in the early stage, and the interest will be calculated and repaid in installments later.

But Ronin still hesitated at such high costs.

Fortunately, there is a second way of cooperation.

All of the above can be provided by Vitorino for free, and Ronin only needs to provide food and accommodation for the workers.

The condition is that after the port and dock of Wubei Territory are built, Pointed City can participate in the subsequent management and obtain 50% of the profits permanently.

Roning can accept this method.

After all, the investment can be shared with others, and he is also completely ignorant of the management of the port, so he needs to introduce professional personnel.

However, he has a lot of opinions about the share of the profits.

The help and support of Pointed City is certainly important, but these are all based on the conditions created by Roning.

Whether it is Wubei Territory or Jiliu Island, this is his territory.

Moreover, he is very confident in the prosperity of Wubei Territory Port. In that case, Vitorino wants to take 50% of the profits permanently, which is too much!

In the next two days, several rounds of negotiations, the two sides reached a consensus with difficulty.

Roning can give 30% of the profits of the port;

Roning only gives 10% of the profits of Jiliu Island dock and shipbuilding.

At the same time, it is agreed that Roning has absolute control over all matters, which is often called a veto.

Vitorino is obviously not satisfied with this result.

However, he saw that Ronin had an attitude of "if you don't support me, I will do it myself", so in order not to miss this opportunity, he could only agree.

Fortunately, although the investment is large, the return should be high after success.

If it is really possible to suppress the Screaming Island in the future as Ronin said, so that the ships in Port Dennis will not be harmed, such an investment is completely acceptable to the Pointed Horn City.

As for the veto power mentioned by Ronin, Vitorino didn't care much.

After all, the port and the dock are in other people's territory, it is difficult for him to control it. Instead of wasting energy, it is better to make money.

After the cooperation was finalized and the contract was signed, Vitorino immediately took action. The surveyors have been sent to Wubei Territory, and the next step is to recruit workers.

And Ronin also needs to organize people to build a place for workers to eat and live after determining the location of the port construction.

If nothing unexpected happens, there will be a new city there in the future.

After leaving the Pointed Horn City, Ronin and the other two came to Wushan Castle under the escort of Melonica.

The bodyguard uncle has successfully completed his mission and can concentrate on adapting to the strength of the meteor level.

Lu Lansi was very pleased with the achievements of his grandson. In addition to his concern, he also asked about the construction of the rapids island.

Luo Ning did not hide anything and told Viscount Vitorino about the cooperation.

"Cooperation with the Pointed City is indeed a wise move."

It is November again, and the temperature is gradually dropping. Compared with last winter, Lu Lansi seems to be more afraid of the cold this winter, and has wrapped himself in a blanket early.

"Cooperation leads to win-win results."

Ronin smiled and said, "If I develop everything by myself, starting from scratch, I may succeed in the end, but it will take longer. Attracting others to invest in my Wubei Territory will bring faster returns."

Lulansi nodded and reminded, "Cooperation and win-win results are good, but don't take it lightly and let others sideline you."

"I understand."

Lulansi looked at his eldest grandson and sighed, "It's a pity that I can only provide limited help with the Screaming Sea. How to deal with the Fleming family depends on your ability."

I'm afraid that handing over the Fifth Knights to Ronin is the greatest combat power help he can provide. For the rest, he can only provide limited help.

Perhaps after he dies, the huge amount of gold coins invested in alleviating the pain caused by the Soul Devouring Surge will be released every year, and Wushan Castle should be able to form more knights.

But by then, Wiggins will inherit the title of Marquis, and the other party may not support Roning like he did.

Perhaps I need to transfer more resources to Roning before I die.

Rulans thought so in his heart, but he did not forget to remind him:

"I want to remind you that the ancestors of the Fleming family had magicians. As a magic family, they have a deep foundation and are not short of magic cannons and magic weapons. Before they are absolutely sure, they cannot easily conflict."

Roning nodded solemnly, and he agreed with this.

Fortunately, he is now taking the route of keeping a low profile, and there will be no open conflicts at present.

"Leave these to me, Grandpa, you just need to rest assured and take care of your health, there is still a long time in the future."

Hearing this, Rulans laughed, he knew that he didn't have much time.

"Didn't you just mention that you would develop a city near the port? Is there a plan?"

Roning scratched his head. "It's just a concept for now, and there is no specific plan. However, I am very confident in the development of Wubei Territory. In the future, this city will at least reach the level of Niujiao Bay."

"That's a big city."

Lulans also looked forward to Roning having such a new city. "The planning of a big city must be careful. When the time comes, I will ask your father to provide you with a group of urban planners to assist you."

"Thank you, Grandpa!" Roning said gratefully.

Although Roning didn't know much about city planning, he also had his own ideas.

Not to mention being on par with modern cities, at least there should be new breakthroughs in details such as spatial layout and land use, drainage design and sewage treatment, so that the city looks new.

However, this is a long thing that needs to be discussed and practiced step by step.

After a short stay in Wushan Fort, Roning came to the back mountain and rode Carlos directly to Wubei Territory, and handed the Cloud Horse to Tom and David to take back.

This time, it took nearly two months before and after leaving. When I returned to the territory again, I should have gained a lot. (End of this chapter)
