One of the things that Griffin Sr., who has been staying in Douglas for a week, likes to do most recently is to move out a small bench, put on a sun hat, and sit quietly at the entrance to the southern suburbs of Douglas.

Every pick-up truck that passes in front of him dragging families and people seems to have grown legs and is running wildly on the hot earth!

And these people are indeed gold!

The people of Douglas, especially the businessmen, who were originally extremely opposed to the entry of outsiders, suddenly discovered that the sales of goods that had never been sold before were soaring...

In addition to the restaurant managed by Chris, whose burrito sales doubled, other businesses also felt the consumption power of these new faces. In the hot summer, after another long journey, when I was full, I bought a bottle of Coke for US$0.99.

, you always want it, right?

Although most of the sales are 4 bottles of 2 liters in packages priced at US$5, this cash income is real, isn't it?!

Before buying a house, people who have just mortgaged their original residence have plenty of cash in their hands, and their spending power is so abundant!

How could Douglas people, who are used to living in poverty, have seen this happen?!

Seeing them all over the streets and alleys, throwing coins everywhere! One is buying food, the other is buying drinks, and the lavish spending... almost makes the Douglas people have a feeling. In fact, Douglas is the poorest place in Georgia right now.

It's not the paradise they imagined at all...

And after the money they spent in restaurants, supermarkets, and money to buy land fell into the hands of Douglas people, many people were surprised to find that the market seemed different. Not only were the outsiders spending money generously, but the locals seemed to be generous too.

many...

Now I dare to go to restaurants that I didn’t dare to eat in the past! Now I dare to buy snacks that I didn’t dare to buy in the past! And once money circulates, the whole market is like spring coming and has regained its vitality...

But while the market was regaining its vitality, Carter almost collapsed from exhaustion!

"Thank you Mayor Benjamin! I love you!"

"Hahaha, you're welcome, you're welcome! Hurry up and pack up. The new house will be ready soon. Mr. Black's dog builders are already purchasing raw materials, and our Dongfeng Express freight vehicles have also set off. When they come back in two days,

The construction of the new house can begin! By the way, don’t forget to go to Black Bank to sign the contract tomorrow!”

Looking at Benjamin who was smiling and grinning to his ears, Carter took advantage of the opportunity and quickly grabbed the sleeves of the person next to him:

"Uncle Rob, why did you drag me here?! Isn't this prefabricated house already built? Just let them live in it first. I can't help here!"

"Nonsense! What has been built? How much has been built now? Isn't it still being built over there? We are here to supervise the construction. This is the biggest event we have had in Douglas in the past ten, no, thirty years! Except for three

When the city was founded ten years ago, when was there such a grand event?! This is our top priority in Douglas now, and there must be no mistakes!"

While answering Carter's question, Benjamin's eyes still fell on the people who continued to pour into the settlement area. As soon as those people entered the settlement area, municipal staff with red armbands came forward to greet them.

.

After registration, a sheet of instructions for building a prefabricated house and a number plate will be photographed directly into the hands of the newcomer. The newcomers only need to find the pile of materials they need according to the number plate, and then carry the boards and build the prefabricated house by themselves.

Free temporary accommodation, secure job guarantees, and the affable expressions of those with red armbands put a bright smile on the face of everyone who enters the settlement.

Carrying boards and building a house by yourself is certainly very tiring, and many people are covered in dust after a while in the dusty open space. But those big white teeth are telling Benjamin and Carter a kind of hope.

something!

But hope is good, and it seems to give people a sense of accomplishment. But behind the instant prosperity in front of him, Carter's heart is really worried...

By the final deadline of June 1, Douglas conservatively estimates that it will be able to add more than 5,000 people, which is more than a thousand families; and Pearson, which is already more prosperous than Douglas, is even more terrifying in this regard.

The population is at least over 7,000!

The increase of 12,000 to 3,000 people means that more than 2,000 or nearly 3,000 jobs will be needed to catch up. With the demand for large-scale housing construction, Pilsen's pine logging factory has revived... No, it has regained its vitality.

, it is not difficult to be able to help yourself solve more than 300 jobs.

The newly added population is enough to form a brand new community and promote the construction of more restaurants, supermarkets and other low-level businesses in the community. The so-called self-employed people have to meet the needs of 12,000 to 3,000 people, which consumes a lot of people here.

Then there are community managers, new community police, etc., which will consume another batch of municipal personnel.

Of the 3,000 positions, the actual number that needed to be considered was only about 2,500. But even so, Carter still felt a little overwhelmed.

Because these people are different from the Pearson people who are about to be sent to the metropolis to make money, their current work is still focused on the local area. As far as the local economy is concerned...

Carter did some calculations and found that 3,000 households meant a demand for 3,000 housing units. Such a huge consumption of building materials could no longer be afforded by Old Griffin alone, and it was necessary to introduce more building materials companies to supply raw materials.

.

In addition to pine wood, which Forest Bank came forward to jointly purchase with the city of Pilsen to lower the purchase price, the rest of the steel, stone, etc. to be used, as more companies join the competition, the purchase price may be lower than in Pilsen.

Mori is lower...

And the fact is indeed the case. Douglas Pearson's huge demand for building materials is like a huge piece of dog shit, attracting countless flies to come here to taste it.

Construction companies from Atlanta came, and construction companies from neighboring Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, and even as far away as Pennsylvania sent business representatives hoping to win this order.

Carter always says no to construction companies. Are you kidding me?

If you use their workers, how can you solve the problem of population employment? But as for the building materials company, we can have a good talk...

As they were chatting, Old Griffin's eyes suddenly turned red.

Thinking about his own purchase price, and comparing it with the price negotiated by Carter. While the old Griffin was about to burst into tears, he also expressed his understanding. After all, who gave him such a huge market?

Controlling the greatest demand, in these depressed years, Carter is the father, no, the ancestor! He is the ancestor of almost all building materials companies!

Three thousand houses, even if they are sold at a price of 35,000 US dollars, the total amount is as high as 105 million. Even if Carter takes 2,000 US dollars from each house, no, counting his 3,000 US dollars profit plus labor.

The cost is good.

The actual expenditure for purchasing building materials and equipment for one residence is 32,000 U.S. dollars, and 3,000 units is 96 million U.S. dollars! And among them, the engineering equipment and equipment purchases that can be recycled do not cost much at all. So this 96 million U.S. dollars

Of the total purchase amount, at least US$90 million will be spent on building materials.

A purchase order of US$900,000 is enough to wake me up from my dream, let alone US$90 million...

If he hadn't witnessed it with his own eyes in the past ten days, when Old Griffin heard someone say that he wanted to purchase 90 million US dollars in building materials, he would have definitely put down the phone immediately. Even if you are bragging, you must abide by the Basic Law!
