Chapter 107 Trouble in Xiangshui Town
In the next few days, Liu Heming was still working hard to complete his great cause of forging the knife.Calling the system every day has become the norm, but the reply they give him is still in the process of upgrading.

Finally, his craftsmanship has undergone a breakthrough improvement. Today, he plans to punch out both knives in one go, and then hand them over to John for quenching and tempering.Because the two pots have been forged and pressed with the help of John, the only difference is the processing of some local details.

If he can't deal with these small problems well, then he can't expect to fight in the future.

He was holding a kitchen knife on his side, and John was still punching the iron pot on his side.Because the molds have a lifespan, it is a waste to leave them alone. It is better to get them out once to save trouble in the future.

"George, what's the matter? Why do you have such an ugly expression?" Liu Heming raised his head, and saw that George had come here at some point, with a gloomy expression on his face.

"Hey, what we were worried about has finally happened. The state government has decided to put our Xiangshui Town up for auction." George sighed, lit a cigarette and took a deep puff.

"Auction? No way, how is this possible? This is a small town?" Liu Heming asked in surprise.

"Dexter, forgive me for not telling you the truth before. In fact, our town has been able to survive until now because it has been subsidized by the state government." George said with an ugly expression.

"The weather has gotten worse in the past two years, and the state government finally decided to abandon our town. It plans to sell it to real estate investors. Perhaps Xiangshui Town may become a production base for a large enterprise in the future."

"But don't worry, your ranch state government will not sell it together, they will only sell the land under the jurisdiction of the town, and because you also own part of the town's shares, even if it is sold in the future, you can share some of the money. "

"No, no, George, are you sure you're in a normal state today? Didn't you talk nonsense?" Liu Heming asked, shaking his head.

"Dexter, in fact, this situation is quite normal. If it weren't for the prosperity of Xiangshui Town, which brought a lot of tax revenue to the state government, I am afraid that Xiangshui Town would have been auctioned off long ago." John also took out After taking a sip of the cigarette, he said.

"In fact, the situation of auction towns has happened many times in recent years, and it has happened in many states. The main reason is that the number of residents in the town has decreased. Some have moved to big cities for development, and some have encountered disasters, like It’s our side that has been plagued by drought all these years.”

"For the state government, such a small town is a burden. If it is handed over to a good developer for operation, it may be able to revive the town and increase the tax revenue of the state government."

"But I always feel that this is not good. Think about it, if this area is used for industrial development, the enterprises that settle here will pollute? What about our lives?" Liu Heming asked with a frown.

"Dexter, we don't want to do this, but we have no way to ensure that Xiangshui Town can escape the drought. As for the convenience of pollution, you can rest assured that Montana attaches great importance to this aspect, even if there are some Enterprises building factories here will also meet corresponding environmental protection standards.”

Liu Heming was very depressed, because he was ambitious, and he wanted to acquire all the land in Xiangshui Town in the future to develop his own farming and animal husbandry business.

He has his own system. Although the test results of finger sweet potatoes have not yet come out, he is very confident that this is a good sweet potato.Wait until later to complete other tasks and get more rewards, then it will be really easy to make money.

But now?George actually told himself that the town was going to be auctioned off.If it weren't for the serious expressions on both of them, he would really think they were joking.

He can understand John's words. To put it bluntly, the current Xiangshui Town not only cannot create any value for Montana, but occasionally has to add money here.

Even if it was him, he probably would have thought of selling Xiangshui Town.For the development of the entire state, this is indeed a good way.

The way to make quick money is very simple. I can be a demolition household. In case some big company acquires the land here in the future, if my pasture is also within the scope of their blueprint, then it will be fine. .

If there is no system, he will be very happy. This is a shortcut to getting rich overnight.But he has a system, and the lake that was smashed out when the system landed, this problem is very difficult to deal with.

He didn't believe that the lake was that simple. He had a hunch that this system upgrade would definitely bring about earth-shaking changes, not only for the system itself, but also for his ranch.

"George, is there any way to protect our town?" After thinking for a while, Liu Heming looked at George and asked.

George shook his head, "It's difficult. There was such a proposal a few years ago, but there were nearly a hundred households in Xiangshui Town at that time, so we persisted. How many people are there in Xiangshui Town now? ? And even the remaining people may not be able to preserve Xiangshui Town as much as we do."

"Is there really nothing to do?" Liu Heming asked helplessly.

"Actually, there is a way, but it will cost more money and risk more." John said from the side.

"It's us raising money and loans to buy the entire town. But in this way, we can no longer get subsidies from the state government, and we need to pay for all the maintenance of the facilities."

"For our Xiangshui Town, this is also a large expenditure. I am afraid that even if we can scrape together the money to buy the town, it will be difficult for us to have such a sum of money. It may not take long. We would go bankrupt."

Liu Heming grinned wryly. John's method is indeed quite simple and very direct, which is to change the main body of the purchase and replace it with people from Xiangshui Town.

He also knew that with the financial resources of the people in Xiangshui Town, it would be difficult to buy Xiangshui Town. He should have set his sights on Sasha.

But even in Sasha's house, it is not so easy to buy the entire Xiangshui Town.The land area of ​​Xiangshui Town is too large, even if it is given the price of cabbage, the transaction volume of this land is very safe, exceeding tens of millions of dollars.

Sasha's family is not a billionaire, even if they are, what's the use of their family investing in this land?With more than 1000 million, it is not good for people to do some business.

It can be said that the current Xiangshui Town is really in trouble.
