Rebirth 79: I opened a bank in the United States

Chapter 146 I want to protect my hometown
"[-] sheets"

If you listen to this number alone, you may not feel much, but if you combine it with daily sales, it is a bit scary!
You know, the entire city of Pearson has a population of just over [-].To achieve a daily sales volume of [-], it is necessary for almost every two people in Pearson to have a pie a day. What the hell!
"Are you kidding me?!"

If it weren't for Benjamin's face and Carter's acquisition of Forest Bank, Leiberding would have every reason to suspect that Carter is a charlatan who came out of nowhere.
"Sorry, I'm a little excited. But, Mr. Black, I hope you can be more realistic. Twenty thousand cakes a day is simply impossible! When McDonald's and Burger King competed here for the market, all kinds of promotions came into battle. It also achieved a daily sales volume of [-] packages."

"And that was a good year for our economy. As soon as the discount ended, the sales dropped sharply. I am very grateful and supportive of your willingness to invest in Pearson City at this time, but...but...I also hope that you can really You're making money here, aren't you?"

Lei Boding's words were still too tactful.To put it more bluntly: If you have no hair on your mouth, you can't do things well!Don't blow it!

"Hahaha, Hart, you are underestimating Carter! He dares to say that, so he has the confidence. Do you know the current daily sales of his Kentucky burrito shop?"

"How many?"

Seeing Benjamin laughing out loud, Leiberdine couldn't help being a little dazed.If this burrito is really popular, why haven't you heard of it?

"As of now, the stable daily sales volume is more than [-] copies!"

"talent"

"The location of that store is a full 20 kilometers away from our downtown Douglas, on the side of the deserted Highway 23."

Leiberdine:! !
"Are you serious? Didn't you lie?"

Reberdine was startled.For the catering industry, the business scope of a store is often very limited!That is to say, wherever your store is open, basically only people nearby will come to eat.If there is no particularly strong attraction, such as internal word-of-mouth and inheritance, or external ones such as relying on certain shopping malls to bring people flow.

Under normal circumstances, even in the United States, where the land is vast and sparsely populated, the radiation range of a restaurant is usually about 8 kilometers.Drive 20 kilometers to buy a burrito.
"why?"

"Haha, of course it's because of the low cost! Mr. Leiberding, I'm really not arrogant. The bad economic environment may be a painful thing for other restaurants, but for my burrito business, On the contrary, it is the best environment!"

Carter took up the topic while laughing.It's time for Benjamin to make a gesture for himself, and it's time for him to do the next job.
"My stuff doesn't have any technical content, and there are no fancy marketing activities. The core of my business is cheap. While being cheap, I can also provide a decent taste, that's enough!"

"After our calculations, we have been able to reduce the cost to the point where it is more affordable than ordinary families cooking by themselves. I believe that with the opening of this store, in terms of supply, I can continue to ask suppliers Lower prices. Especially now, life is not easy for them, hahaha!"

"What's your current pricing?"

"right now we."

After listening to Carter's quotation and roughly revealing the cost, Leiberdine suddenly fell silent.It was completely different from the excitement when he expressed doubts before. While Lei Boding was silent, his face was a little dark and terribly dark.
"Phew, no! If that's the case, I'm sorry, but I can't let you in!"

After a long while, Lei Boding spoke.As soon as he opened his mouth, everyone was stunned
"I need a reason, Hart! Carter and I kindly came to help you, but you..."

The atmosphere on the table suddenly turned cold, and there was a rare trace of anger on Benjamin's face.Although he didn't slam the table and scold Lei Boding for biting Lu Dongbin, but that attitude has fully revealed what he wanted to express.

"It's not that I'm ungrateful, Rob. Of course, I'm grateful that you can come during this period. Even if you are just a small fast food restaurant that can only recruit three or four employees, I will be grateful to you. But You are not! You are not here to help me! You are here to make money for the country!!"

After shaking his head and sighing, Lei Boding became more and more emotional:
"With cheap food, of course it can keep Pearson alive. But what about the result? If Mr. Black's burrito can really reduce the price to this point, then almost no one in Pearson will be willing to cook for themselves Not to mention eating burritos for three meals a day, at least two meals a day will buy burritos to satisfy hunger!"

"In this case, [-] copies? I think it's possible for him to sell [-] copies a day! Especially with the increase in sales volume, Mr. Black, who has a large demand, can use this to lower the supply price. The price advantage will be even more obvious at that time!"

"This is of course a good thing for Mr. Black and you! But for Pearson, this is a disaster! It is a disaster enough to completely destroy this city!"

Carter's complexion darkened as he heard Leiberdin's words becoming more and more accusatory.In his current thinking, it is obviously a good thing that his profits will increase and he will continue to help the citizens of Pearson reduce their food expenses!Let them have a little money left in their hands to buy some other necessities of life, why?
"Don't you want a reason? Rob, I'll give you a reason! It's not like you don't know the industrial structure of our city of Pearson!"

"Except for the logging industry, all the population is basically engaged in the service industry. The supermarkets and restaurants they rely on. Look at this street, how many restaurants and pubs are there on this street less than two kilometers away."

"Once your business starts, at least half of these shops will close down! And most importantly, after you have earned Pearson's money, you will have to take the money out of town for a large amount of purchase of raw materials. That is to say, in the future There is less and less money circulating in Pilsen!"

"It turns out that we have the income from the timber business, and some capital outflows are nothing. But now, the income from selling timber is visibly decreasing. If you suck up a lot of cash at this time, the city will be over!"

"I will absolutely not allow you to do this! I am not a hero, but I also know that I must protect my hometown!"

"Rob, I don't know if you have thought about this level of problems. I hope you are just negligent and didn't think about it. Then our friends can still do it, if not."

By the time Leiberdine said that, his butt had left the stool.While leaving the table, Leiberdine finally swallowed the doubt:

"You guys eat, this meal is charged to my account. I still have some things to deal with, so I won't accompany you."
