Chapter 174 Subsidy Agreement (First Update)
The Wanfang logo is printed on the bottom of the coffin?
What kind of weird request is this?
Are you, Wanfang Group, still counting on coffins to advertise for you?
And it’s printed on the bottom board, who the hell can see it?
Is someone dead?
You advertise to the dead, are you hoping that these people will buy your huge houses after they pass away?
There's no shortage of housing there, okay?
There is no shortage of big villas, fruits, mobile phones, new energy vehicles, and now there are even young models in the club. Will your advertising be effective?
Besides, has your Wanfang business expanded there?
Wu Tao didn't notice that Fang Yu was talking about the logo designated by Wanfang, not Wanfang's logo.
As long as a magic circle for collecting spiritual energy is drawn on the baseboard, as soon as the deceased lies in it, the spiritual energy will automatically connect to the magic net through the magic circle and be transmitted to the bottle of spiritual energy through the magic net.
Six hundred and fifty thousand coffins are exported every year, haha, that means at least six hundred thousand souls a year.
According to Yuzu's estimation, it would take about 300,000 spiritual powers to resurrect a person. Even if some of them were redundant, 500,000 should be enough.
When Fang Yu heard Youzi talk about how spirits could be used as astral sacrifices in resurrection, he instantly came up with this plan in his mind.
This is mainly because he is from the National Academy of Economics.
There is a course in the School of Economics called Industrial Economics.
Generally, university teachers spend half of their lectures chatting and half reading the textbook, and the lecturer of this course is no exception.
Once when we were chatting in class, the teacher said that there are actually many unexpected industries, and our market share in the world is very high. Even a village or a town has monopolized the global market.
Then the teacher gave the example of the Caozhou coffin.
The teacher was talking about this matter as a topic of conversation, and Fang Yu was listening to it for fun, but when Youzi mentioned the spirits of the deceased, Fang Yu immediately connected the two together.
This is the power of knowledge.
When I was learning it, I felt that I would never use it in my lifetime, and it is indeed possible that I will never use it in my lifetime.
But one day, a piece of knowledge thrown into the corner of your memory will suddenly be connected to the problem you need to solve. Even if you have forgotten the specific content of the knowledge, as long as you remember a little bit of it, you can search for this knowledge again and solve the problem you encounter.
But if you haven't even heard of this knowledge, then you naturally won't be able to solve the problem. It may cause huge losses, or even the whole thing will fail completely.
"They've only signed a letter of intent, and the land auction hasn't even started yet, and you're already giving out subsidies?" On the way back, Chen Xi couldn't help but complain, "Would my brother-in-law agree to that? If Wanfang were passed to you, you'd squander it all in less than three years."
"Uncle, you don't have to worry about this. My father and I are father and son and we have a clear account. After I turned 18, I have never used his money. This project is managed by Wanfang. No matter whether it is the land auction or the subsidy, I will pay for it. All the profits and losses are mine. I don't need Wanfang to invest." Fang Yu replied on WeChat with his mobile phone.
Chen Xi was shocked: "You paid? I guaranteed it in front of Wu Tao. Xiaoyu, you can't cheat me. Your grandfather won't forgive you when the time comes."
Fang Yu understood that what Chen Xi meant was that if it was Wanfang Investment, backed by such a large group company, even if it suffered losses, it should be able to develop sustainably.
But now Fang Yu is paying for it himself, and Wangshu Tears has only been on the market for three months, so it is impossible for him to make 180 million.
In that case, the investment amount promised by Fang Yu is actually a blank check, and what will be finally received may be the initial 30 million.
Although many people did this, Fang Yu was introduced by Chen Xi after all, and Chen Shi'an also had his face, otherwise the locals would not cooperate so unconditionally.
If Fang Yu really fools the locals later, it will be the Chen family that will be embarrassed.
"Don't worry, uncle. I have already paid out the first batch of 1.2 million in subsidies. What else do you have to worry about?" Fang Yu continued to send WeChat messages.
Chen Xi shook his head. "I don't know what you're thinking. I've calculated that even if you can sell this industrial park within two years, your project, including the subsidies, will cost you at least 40 million."
"Besides, how can the subsidies be given in advance? This is just a letter of intent. When the time comes, the other party can find any excuse not to move and take two years of subsidies for nothing. You have no recourse at all."
Fang Yu chuckled.
Getting subsidies for nothing? Under the coercive force of the oath contract, I actually hope they will break it.
What's more, I already got the 19th level authority of Lorin Tower yesterday, and I bought ten spiritual bottles at 800 magic crystals each. If I spend a little money now, the first batch of 60,000 units of spirituality will be credited to my account in no time. Compared with these spiritualities, what is the 1.2 million subsidy?
The night before yesterday, after returning to the hotel, he learned the sixth second-level spell - Rope Concealment.
At the same time, he also successfully obtained the 19th level authority of Lorin Tower.
Now, he has basically figured out the conditions for obtaining permission.
1. Upgrade
2. After upgrading, you will master 6 new spells of the highest level that you can master at your current level.
After the upgrade, Fang Yu immediately started the switch of Lorin Tower, and immediately went to the Piedmont Alchemy Company to spend 8,000 magic crystals to buy 10 spiritual bottles.
Each bottle of spirituality can store the spirituality of 10,000 people, and may become Fang Yu's largest consumer of magic crystals in the future.
One million and two hundred thousand people die in Japan every year. If we can fully occupy the Japanese market, we can obtain at least one million spiritual points from Japan every year.
The spiritual energy of Japan alone requires at least 100 spiritual bottles every year to contain it.
Spirituality can be used for more than just resurrection. According to Fang Yu and Youzi's research over the past few days, spirituality should be able to be used to trade directly with the star realm.
The astral plane is not a barren land. On the contrary, it can produce many materials that are extremely precious in the main plane.
For example, Yuzu's true form - the Star Crystal.
According to Yuzu's own speculation, its true form should be something that Sekalis used as a trading item, exchanged from the astral realm.
One million spiritual income per year is just the beginning. The potential for future income growth is huge and it is a blue ocean.
More than 55 million people die every year worldwide. Even if we remove the more than 10 million people from the Great Zhou Dynasty, there are still 40 million.
If you can consume 80% of the 40 million, then you will get 30 million in spiritual benefits every year.
Thirty million, doesn’t that mean you can exchange it for anything you want from the Star Realm?
Moreover, in areas that contribute spiritual energy, the IQ of newborns will continue to decline; and this part of spiritual energy will be re-injected into the star realm from the Great Zhou, and the proportion of geniuses among newborns in the Great Zhou will be greatly increased.
It benefits the country and the people and is suitable for home.
Selling thin-skinned wooden coffins to Japan is just the first step. The company plans to expand its product line to include diamond-shaped coffins in the Yumai style, stone coffins used by squid, eco-friendly coffins for environmentalists, rainbow coffins for LGBTQ+ groups, and neodymium fist coffins with kneeling figures carved into them.
Not only the coffin industry is worth investing in, but also hospital beds, morgue freezer drawers, stretchers, body bags, shrouds...all industries related to collecting spirituality can be invested in!
It won’t take a hundred years, in fifty years, the IQ of future generations of the Great Zhou will be able to crush other regions!
Indeed, according to the paper in TR877, when the spiritual feedback in a certain area is insufficient, the astral realm will also mobilize spirituality from other areas to supplement it, but the supplementation also requires a process and time.
It's like several glass jars filled with sticky aloe vera juice, connected to each other by pipes at the bottom.
If someone scoops out the aloe vera juice from glass jar No. 5 and pours it into glass jar No. 1, the other glass jars will replenish aloe vera juice to glass jar No. 5 through the pipes at the bottom under the action of atmospheric pressure until the aloe vera juice in all the glass jars reaches balance again.
However, if someone keeps scooping aloe vera juice from glass jar No. 5 and pouring it into glass jar No. 1, and the scooping speed exceeds the speed at which the aloe vera juice flows through the pipe, then the aloe vera juice in glass jar No. 5 will always be less than that in glass jar No. 1.
According to the paper's calculations, if all spiritual energy in an area with a population of one million was no longer fed back to the astral world, the intelligence level of newborns in that area would decrease by 15 percent.
In other words, a genius who should have had an IQ of 140 at birth now has an IQ of only around 120 after birth, and has become an ordinary smart person from a genius.
The average IQ of an ordinary person with an original IQ of 100 will drop to 85.
An IQ below 70 is considered mildly mentally retarded.
As for how much the average IQ of newborns in areas with more spiritual feedback can be improved, the article did not conduct any research.
But this impact is definitely positive.
No wonder extraordinary geniuses often emerge after long wars.
After the Black Death, the Renaissance came and many masters emerged, which may be due to this reason.
Is it a loss to exchange 40 million for racial superiority for the next few hundred years?
Of course it’s not a loss. Putting aside all these, just being able to resurrect my mother is not a loss at all.
Moreover, even if it is money, you may not necessarily lose it.
Conditions that seem to result in losses now may actually bring you more profits in a few years.
Therefore, the day after Fang Yu held a negotiation meeting with Caozhou, he asked the local authorities to gather all the wood carving and panel companies in Yanzhai together for a symposium.
Fang Yu put forward the condition of "immediate subsidy" on the spot. As long as the enterprises agreed at the symposium to move to Wanfang Industrial Park in the future, from that day on, for every coffin exported by these enterprises and the Wanfang-designated logo printed on the bottom of the coffin, Wanfang would give them a subsidy of 20 yuan.
Under the combined effects of "glib tongue", "suggestion" and "shopping mania", almost all the participating companies signed a letter of intent with Fang Yu on the oath contract, agreeing to print Wanfang's designated pattern on the bottom of the coffins for export from now on, and to move to the Wanfang Industrial Park after it is completed.
That month, 60,000 coffins were to be exported to Japan. Fang Yu kept his word and immediately transferred the subsidies to the accounts of various companies according to the number of export orders.
The owners of the coffin factory were also very happy. They asked the workers to work overtime overnight to re-stick logos on the bottom panels of more than 10,000 coffins that were about to be packed and shipped to Sunshine Port. The other 50,000 coffins that were to be delivered this month would also have the logos affixed during the production stage.
However, Wanfang’s requirements are a bit strange. A logo needs to be replaced for every 10,000 units. Each company reports its demand for the next month. Wanfang will send the logo style in advance and send people to the site for inspection before shipment.
In just four days, Fang Yu had basically finished all his work and could just go home and wait to collect the spiritual power.
Chen Xi drove the car home and was about to get out when Fang Yu stopped him.
"Uncle, wait a moment."
After saying that, Fang Yu took out two sets of Wangshu Tears gift boxes and two bottles of Merlot Valley red wine from the glove box.
There were also two oranges in the red wine paper bag.
"This gift box is for my aunt. It's a special version of Wangshu Tears. It's twice as effective as the regular version. Tell my aunt not to give it to anyone else, but to use it for herself. Okay?"
Chunriyou has specially launched a high-end version of Wangshu Lei with a dilution ratio of 1:5. It is not sold but only given to super high-end users.
"The wine is for you. It's more expensive than Conti, but it's not ostentatious, so no one knows about it. Do whatever you want with it. It's not for sale outside. If you want it after you finish it, come back to me."
Chen Xi didn't hesitate and took it. Seeing the two oranges in the paper bag, he asked curiously, "What are these oranges for? Are you trying to play a trick on me?"
Fang Yu rolled his eyes, peeled an orange, and squeezed the juice from the peel onto Chen Xi.
Chen Xi thought about it for a while before he understood. He couldn't help but take a breath of cold air and survived a disaster.
"Damn, you're still the most delicate." Chen Xi gave a thumbs up, reached out to peel another orange, and squeezed the orange peel until the smell of makeup was completely gone from his body. Only then did he enter the elevator from the underground garage.
I was hosted by the locals these days and experienced the customs and culture of Shen County. Although the level cannot be compared with big cities, it also has its own unique flavor.
"Mr. is back. Dinner will be ready soon."
Chen Xila opened the door and saw that his aunt had just prepared dinner. From the entrance, he could hear his wife Zhang Yalan's roar as she was tutoring their daughter Yi Yi in her room, and Yi Yi's crying.
"Fifty-seven fifty-six? Fifty-seven fifty-six? You look like fifty-six to me!"
"Hurry up and memorize it! You won't be allowed to eat if you don't memorize it today!"
"Tom Cat? You still want to play Tom Cat? You look like a Tom Cat to me! Even Plants vs. Zombies can't do it! Don't play anything if you can't memorize it!"
"Cry, cry, cry, you have to recite it even if you cry!"
"Look at Wei Haozhe in your class. He can only do ten two-digit multiplication and division problems in one minute! You can't even do the math! You're already in the senior class, don't you know that?"
Chen Xi sighed, put on his slippers, and pushed open the door. "She's only in the senior class. We were only in the second grade back then, learning multiplication and division. We didn't miss anything. Sister Hu has already prepared dinner. Let's eat first."
Zhang Yalan glared at Chen Xi angrily: "You are the only one who knows how to be a good person, right? I am not doing this for her good?"
"You didn't even come back on Christmas Eve, and you went to Caozhou with your nephew. You don't care about anything at home, and you come back to complain about everything. From now on, you take care of it, not me! Okay?"
As she said that, Zhang Yalan angrily slammed the pen on Yi Yi's small table, wiped her tears and was about to leave.
Chen Xi was so frightened that he quickly hugged his wife. "Fang Yu and I went to Caozhou for serious business. By the way, this is what Fang Yu gave you. She said it's a special edition of Wangshu Tears, twice as effective as the standard version."
He and Zhang Yalan were in a free love relationship under the guidance of their parents. Zhang Yalan's family worked in the health system, and her family background was slightly worse than Chen Xi's, but they could barely be considered a good match.
Zhang Yalan's expression eased a little and she reached out to take the gift box.
Chen Xi quickly winked at Yi Yi.
"By the way, this is Fang Yu's first time working for Wan Fang, right? Is Fang Yu going to take over Wan Fang? My brother-in-law is not very old, so he won't let Fang Yu take over so early, right?" Zhang Yalan asked curiously at the dinner table.
"Take over?" Chen Xi put down his chopsticks, and the series of actions taken by his nephew on this trip emerged in his mind.
"I think my brother-in-law will have a lot of trouble in the future." Chen Xi shoveled a few mouthfuls of rice into his mouth.
Zhang Yalan gossiped: "What happened? Is Fang Yu incompetent? Did the negotiation go wrong?"
Chen Xi chuckled and shook his head: "I'm afraid that when my brother-in-law wants to hand over the job, Fang Yu may not look down on Wan Fang."
???
Zhang Yalan was puzzled. Was this nephew really that capable? Even if he had organized a spring tour, it must have been Fang Daqiang who had found the way for him, right? Even if it wasn't Fang Daqiang's risk isolation measure, but Fang Yu's own initiative, then it wouldn't be possible for the spring tour to grow to the scale of Wanfang, right?
After eating and taking a shower, Zhang Yalan asked the nanny to take Yi Yi to bed quickly and winked at Chen Xi.
Chen Xi couldn't help but feel his waist tighten.
Oh no, I forgot to ask that guy for that tonic!
