Three Hundred and Forty-One. Establish Cooperation

"There is no need for the world government to contribute human, material and financial resources, or anything from the world government. As long as an authorization is given, huge benefits can be obtained."

Nicholas is obviously very interested in this proposal. He can make money while lying at home. Of course he is willing to do this kind of thing. Besides, if the train can run through the sea, it will be great for the world government. matter.

Nikolai understands that this proposal is good for both parties. The world government only needs to have a name, and it does not matter if the operation rights are handed over to others.

"Sixty billion baileys." Nikolai immediately said a number, "[The four seas through the operation license] can be handed over to you, but you have to pay 60 billion baileys of operating fees to the world government every year."

"Impossible." Reinhardt immediately refused, looking at Nikolai and said, "I will give you a calculation, the various ores needed to build the sea train, as well as power energy, wood and other materials , I asked someone to do a preliminary calculation, just to build a back-and-forth sea train in Upside Down Mountain, it will cost close to 100 billion Baileys."

Of course, the cost of building a sea train on the inverted mountain is much higher than that on the sea. The main reason is that the environment is too harsh for the seawater that is upstream from the inverted mountain. This kind of engineering is particularly difficult, not to mention other difficulties.

"At least not less than 50 billion baileys." Nikolai also knew that the annual operating fee of 60 billion baileys was indeed a bit exaggerated, but he could not guess the bottom line in Reinhardt's mind.

Originally, he held an attitude of indifference. Because of the request from the world government, it was very unlikely that Reinhardt would be willing to accept it, but now hearing Reinhardt's suggestion, he doesn't need to do anything every year, as long as In a symbolic sense, an operation authorization can generate tens of billions of Bailey's wealth.

In this way, if he can obtain greater benefits for the world government, his future position may be further promoted, and he is more likely to be reused by the Five Old Stars.

Negotiations have always been a tug-of-war to test each other's bottom line. Nikolai knows it very well. Similarly, Reinhardt also understands that the operating expenses of 50 billion Baileys a year are high for him, but The huge benefits it brings are completely worth it, but one cannot easily give up the bottom line of negotiation that he adheres to. As a businessman, he must fight for every penny.

"Twenty-five billion baileys, this is the biggest money I can pay." Reinhardt said a number directly. He looked at Nikolai's contemplative expression and didn't stop, so he continued: " I believe that the world government cannot find a more sincere collaborator than me."

"As a businessman, my integrity has always been guaranteed. You can inquire in Beihai."

"In other words, this cooperation is beneficial to your world government without any harm, but for me, I need to take more risks, capital risks, and pirates attack during construction and operation. The risk of not being able to find the right talent to build the sea train, and so on.”

"Of course, I'm not worried about these. Since I am willing to undertake the sea train project, I must have considered these issues. What worries me the most is the integrity of your world government."

Having said that, Reinhardt turned his attention to Nikolai without any concealment.

"Integrity?" Nikolai gave him a slightly indifferent look, "Are you questioning our world government?"

"If one day, your world government cancels my authority to operate the sea train, then I am not blood loss?" Reinhardt did not care about the indifference of the guy in front of him, and directly retorted.

"As long as you are willing to cooperate well, there is no need for our world government to do such short-sighted things."

"Even so, this is still the biggest risk I need to take in the process of cooperating with the World Government." He did not believe in the World Government's promise, not to mention that this promise was only spoken by a certain official.

"How do you want to solve it?" Nikolai asked,

He clearly did not want the negotiations to go on like this.

When he heard this sentence, a smile appeared on the corner of Reinhardt's mouth, and he said, "If this is the case, then I am making the last step, and at the same time, I am willing to take this seemingly non-existent but potentially fatal risk."

"The annual operating fee is 30 billion Bailey, and starting from the second year, the annual operating fee will be increased by 5% on the basis of the first year, and the operating fee will be capped at 40 billion."

30 billion in the first year, 31.5 billion in the second year, and 33 billion in the third year.

It was the biggest concession he could make on this project.

"In order to make the cooperation between our two sides closer, I will spend an additional 3 billion baileys every year. These funds are mainly used for the remuneration of world government officials in the process of this cooperation. Of course, this fund will be paid to I will leave it to Sir Nicholas to manage, and I won't bother about how to allocate and spend it."

Simply put, it's a rebate.

Hearing this, Nicholas was not surprised. The World Government official Liu, who went to Polkalia with Karl Emma Saint last time, gained huge benefits after returning, and he led such an important cooperation. The project deserves greater benefits.

Therefore, the three billion Bailey Thalassana was at ease.

Thinking of this, Nikolai suddenly smiled: "No problem, then it will be based on 30 billion Baileys and increase year by year. When I go back, I will authorize you the exclusive operation right as soon as possible."

"But there is one more thing that needs to be solved by your world government, otherwise the sea train project will not go ahead."

"You mean Tom the fish?" Nikolai naturally knew that the only one who could complete the construction of the sea train project was Tom the fish.

"You don't have to worry about this. The Smokey Tom that Tom the Fishman was responsible for has been completed. By then, this feat will naturally be able to offset the past crimes."

"Murman Tom's trial is imminent, what if the crime can't be offset?" Reinhardt was still a little worried. The world government has always wanted to get the blueprints of Hades from Murloc Tom, so they acquiesced in what Spandam did. For, but he couldn't keep staring at Spandam all the time. If everything really couldn't be stopped, how would he save Tom the murloc.

Thinking of this, Reinhardt said again, "The Four Seas Train plan is very important to both of us. I don't want any accidents to Tom the Fishman."

"This is a phone bug with an independent line." Nikolai took out a phone bug, handed it to Reinhardt, and continued, "I understand the importance of Tom the Fish in this cooperation plan. If If there is any accident, you can use this phone bug to call my special line, and I will find a way to solve this matter."
