American Ranch

Chapter 304 Give the police a raise
Early the next morning, Parker, the mayor of Nadak Town, and a dozen big landowners in the Panoch Valley approached Moxi and expressed their willingness to sell the land.

The mayor of St. Bernie's town also brought good news. The hills from St. Bernie's town to Nadak town have been successfully changed to grazing land, and the land can be changed to private property.

In the mayor's office of St. Bernie's, the mayor Joseph and Moxie received Parker and his party. Moxie brought a lawyer and drafted a contract. Can't call the shots...

Moxi is cautious in doing things. As long as it is not a daily job, he will basically ask Chen Mo for instructions first.

When Moxi called, Chen Mo had already arrived outside the courtyard of the town government...

"boss……"

"Well. What's the matter on the phone?"

"We have drafted a contract. Mayor Parker made a few small requests on behalf of the valley residents..."

Parker and his group looked at Chen Mo.

Chen Mo nodded with a light smile: "Tell me, what is your request?"

"Half of the residents in Panoch Valley don't have much land. These residents want to give up their properties in the small town and replace them with land in the mountains." Parker said.

Chen Mo looked at Joseph: "The land in the mountainous area is converted into private ownership. How much is 100 acres?"

"To meet the needs of the residents of the Panoch Valley first, we can take out 6000 acres of land, 100 acres, and $1. What do you think? There are 2.7 acres of land left, which will be auctioned secretly. Not all of these lands It belongs to our San Bernie town, and the Pinos city government has to take 60.00% of the funds. Another part of the land belongs to Nadak town."

Chen Mo gestured an OK gesture and looked at Parker and the others: "No problem. Families who are unwilling to acquire real estate will be compensated with 200 acres of land and 28 U.S. dollars in cash."

"Thank you. One more question, we want 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 you guarantee the gates leading to each of our pastures?"

"Of course. These can be written into the contract..." Chen Mo looked at Mo Xi: "It's all written into the contract."

"Okay, no problem." Mo Xi smiled, now he was a little worried about Chen Mo's financial resources.

According to the plan, the 'Big Calabash Valley' will be taken, and the 'Little Calabash Valley' will be taken next.

Because there is a potash feldspar mine in Little Calabash Valley, 7000 million in cash, and [-] million dollars in debt... It is still in financial crisis, and Moxi is worried that Chen Mo's financial resources are not enough to support the subsequent development.

"Mr. Chen Mo, according to our contract, I can get 2000 acres of mountainous land. Under the livestock management system of the River Valley Farming Company, our family's new ranch can raise 4 head of cattle? A cow, it should be ok... 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 mechanical equipment is good...the dehydrated cow manure can be sold directly to the river valley ranch company, or sold to the river valley ranch. As for the polluted water, these need to be treated for a fee , Both river and valley animal husbandry can be disposed of. Selling cow dung minus the cost of sewage treatment, it is no problem to earn more than ten dollars per ton of cow dung. Like your family, if you can raise 3500 cows, you can do it yourself To deal with these cow dung, invest more than a dozen or two 10,000+, and it will pay back in less than two years. Later, everyone can visit the factory area of ​​the Valley Ranch..." Chen Mo smiled: "Any questions?"

"There is an elementary school in our small town with a few teachers...We thought, can we call on the residents of St. Bernie to do a fundraising event? To build a school in the town of St. Bernie...and in the future Nadak will also Incorporated into St. Bernie's Town, the population of St. Bernie's Town will increase..."

"You don't have to worry about the school." Chen Mo looked at Joseph: "You can discuss with the town council and find a good piece of land. The school will have a charity fund to fund the construction, and it is estimated to invest 1000 million. The town's newly planned hilly pastoral area, We also invested in road construction. The town doesn’t have to worry about these costs…”

Joseph bowed to Chen Mo: "Thank you."

"It's almost the end of the year. The town's funds should be borrowed again this year, right?"

Joseph smiled awkwardly: "Yes. I owe the bank $150 million."

"I will organize a charity auction, and you will come to assist Moxi at that time. No matter what other people do, I will donate a sum of money to build the college. At the same time, I will donate a sum of money to the town to improve the town's public facilities. There is also the police station in the small town, which is doing well..." What Chen Mo is most satisfied with is the small town police station. In the past, Bright used them as private security guards for the ranch: "The police station should expand its staff. There are road patrols, so I should add a few more points. In this way, I will donate 10 Ford pickups to the police station... I wonder if the second driver can report to the city police station and change the livery?"

"no problem."

"That's fine... Give the police a raise, and it can't be lower than the salary of our ranch security guards."

Joseph smiled wryly: "I, I will try my best..." The police station now has 27 staff members, and more than half of the town's income is spent on the police station, and the police will be raised...

"Boss?" Moxi whispered in Chen Mo's ear.Parker and the others next to him were a little stunned.

This is the town hall, is it private?

There is also the police station, who even asked for a salary increase for the police... But considering Chen Mo's influence in the town, it seems reasonable.

The police system in the United States is very complicated, and the small town police are almost the domestic co-police.However, the powers of the police in small towns in the United States are much greater than those of the domestic cooperative police. The small town police here can be equipped with guns...

But in the small town of St. Bernie, the police only wear stun guns most of the time.And from the establishment of the police station in the small town to the present, there is no record of using a stun gun...

"The matter of donating money is this month. At the end of the month, I will contact the bank and a special charity organization to come over... Don't hold a big ceremony, everything is simple and low-key. At most, a charity dinner..."

"OK……"

Building schools is charity.This year, Chen Mo originally planned to donate a sum of money through a combination of individuals and companies to offset part of the tax.

Donating money to the town is mainly used to maintain the law and order of the town, and in return for taking land from the town.The support of the town of St. Bernie to Chen Mo's industry is still very important...
