Reborn as the richest man in India.

Chapter 163
Robada's work efficiency is very fast, which is not in line with the previous style of Indian government departments.

Probably because Jogo's investment is large enough, and he also has huge benefits to take, so he will naturally be active in doing things.

Three days later, a team of people, various geological experts, planning experts, and exploration experts were called to study and discuss the suitable site for building the factory.

As a local expert, I am very familiar with the surrounding area, and immediately proposed several suitable locations for the construction of the factory, and listed the advantages and disadvantages of them.

Corresponding supporting facilities and other costs, mainly the cost of roads, have also been estimated.

These data were sent to Qiao Ge and others.

After discussion, we tentatively decided on three of them as locations, and we will go on a field trip next.

The official source of the Ganges in India is called the Bakirati River, which originates from the Gender Glacier at the southern foot of the Himalayas.

In fact, the real source should be in a place called Gaumko more than 20 kilometers southeast of Gendig.

Due to the special status of Gundig, there are many sacred mountains near the Gangodri Glacier, such as Mount Shiva, which are holy places for Hindus to pilgrimage.

Therefore, the official considers the influence of religion and regards the Gangodri Glacier as the source of the Ganges.

Now you have selected three places, one is at the Gangodri Glacier, the second is at the real source of the Gomko Ganga, and the third is at the foot of a glacier near the Gangodri Glacier.

After five days of investigation, Qiao Ge found that the third plant should be the most suitable. The terrain here is low, the water volume is the largest and the water resources are the most abundant, and the investment in road construction is the least.

But this position is a bit awkward, a little distance from Gangodri.

Next is the real source of the second Gomko Ganga, where the water volume is much smaller than that of the third place, and the investment in roads and other supporting facilities is not too large.

The first place is the most difficult and most expensive to build. The terrain here is dangerous, and it is not easy to build a factory. Moreover, if the road is built, the distance is more than twice that of the first two places, so that it can be connected to the main road of the government.

In addition, the construction is too difficult, and the cost per kilometer is at least twice that of the previous two places. Counting the length, it is at least four times the investment.

According to the government's budget, the investment in the supporting roads in the first two places is about 500 million each, but Jogo doesn't believe this figure. The government must have underestimated it, because it is too high, and I am afraid that I will have opinions. When I really invest, it will be too late to find out.

So Jogo's estimate is around 700 million.

In order to estimate his own construction cost, Jogo specially asked Hebiza and others for help a few days ago, and found some professional budgeters in New Delhi.

The level of these people is much higher than the level of people recruited by Rapada.

In addition, the people recruited by Luoboda have tampered with the data and deliberately concealed some, so the cost seems to be much lower.

After being checked by these people, the cost of the three factories was estimated.

The investment in the first place is about 2 million yuan, of which 3000 million yuan is needed for supporting roads.

The second and third places are about the same, both around 1.5 million.

However, according to Jogo's expected annual production volume, the water in the first and second places may not be enough.

This is a bit embarrassing.

The amount of water in the third place is completely sufficient and too rich, but the biggest problem is that it is a little far away from Gangotri, and it is not the source of the holy river in the hearts of Hindus, which deviates from the original intention of producing mineral water.

For Luoboda and the others, the bigger Jogo's investment, the better.

But Jogo had to consider inputs and outputs.

It is impossible to give up Gangodri in the first place. This is fundamental. Without this, there will be no soul.

Insufficient water, should be able to solve it?
For this reason, Qiao Ge has consulted many experts to see if it is possible to divert water from the upper reaches of the glacier, such as diverting some tributaries to flow here.

In the end, they were all rejected. One was that the construction was very difficult, and the other was that this side was too close to the holy mountain, and Jogo was not allowed to move too much on the temple side.

Allowing him to build a factory at the foot of the mountain is already the biggest concession. If Qiao Ge moves too much and expands the scope, it will be a little bit farther.

This made Jogo scratch his head a little bit.

If you want to say no directly from the beginning, it's fine if you cut off your thoughts.

Now I can build it for myself, but if the water source is not enough and the output is not enough, how will the sales increase?

Just when Qiao Ge was extremely entangled, Hamid's words gave him a flash of inspiration.

"The holy water at the source is not enough, can you replenish it with water from other places?" These are Hamid's original words.

His original intention was to pretend to be source water with water from other places.

But Jhogo couldn't do that, certainly he couldn't do something that would ruin his reputation.

Once the word of mouth is bad, it is completely useless.

After all, I have to face the high-end market with these waters. Are these rich and powerful people so easy to fool?

If exposed, the consequences would be serious.

It wasn't long before Gohagar's trash gold incident, and Jhogo didn't want to follow in his footsteps.

So, Jogo changed what Hamid said.

He decided to build a water plant at both the first and third sites.

The first place has less water, so a smaller water plant will be built according to the water volume to produce the most high-end mineral water from the authentic source of the Ganges.

The second place has a large amount of water, so a large water plant will be built. Although the brand of the source of the Ganges is also used, the grade will be lower and the price will be cheaper.

In other words, Qiao Ge graded the mineral water from the water factory from the very beginning, so there is no deception.

The two grades of water need to be differentiated in terms of packaging, material and design of water bottles.

For example, for high-end mineral water, the bottle can be made of glass or crystal glass, and efforts must be made in the shape to reflect a tall person who is in line with the identity of the upper-class elite.

The mineral water at the first place is expensive, and it must be provided to those high-level elites, and some middle-class people can also consume it occasionally.

The second point is that most of the middle class should be able to afford it, and some ordinary people can also spend occasionally.

Due to the large amount of water, the second water factory, Jogo, not only produces bottled mineral water, but also produces barreled mineral water with a larger capacity, which can increase production.

The output of high-end products is small, and the price is high.

The output of a little less is large, and the price can be guaranteed at the same time.

The two can complement each other perfectly.

At the same time, Jogo did not forget the original second location, which is Gaumko, the real source of the Ganges.

Qiao Ge spent 1000 million to buy the land suitable for building a factory here, and Luoboda and the others said that it was used as a backup water source for the expansion of the factory in the future.

Of course, Luo Poda and Ban Bo had no objection, they wished that Qiao God would invest more.

Jogo had his own ideas in doing so.

He may never build a factory here, but this real source must be grasped in his own hands.

Although he has mastered the official source of the name, he can still take precautions.

Who knows if someone will be jealous of him in the future and cause all kinds of troubles for him.

The real source of this may be brought up to explain things.

Then hold this source in your hands now, and you won't be so passive when the time comes.

Otherwise, wouldn't it be bad if it was bought by others?
Now the government will sign an exclusive agreement with itself, but it is hard to say what will happen in the future.

The chief minister of the administrative officer has been changed for an unknown number of times, and it is not uncommon for local governments to break contracts when it is profitable.

This is still a common thing in India, and you must have a plan in advance.

Of course, the root cause lies in whether you are strong, as long as you are strong enough, who dares to do anything to yourself?
According to the recalculation by the construction budget team of the two factories, it was finally found that the construction cost was about 2 million yuan, including production machines and equipment.

The cost of the factory on the Gangodri Glacier is higher, and a lot of money has been saved after downsizing.

Therefore, the cost of building both sides together is about the same.

Jogo has already figured it out, the Gupta Ganges source ice spring factory is on the side of the Gangodri Glacier, and the other is a branch factory.

Ganges source ice spring is the future mineral water brand.

Originally, Qiao Ge still had about 3 million in his hands, but now there are only 1 million left, which can be regarded as his working capital.

Donating to the temple, the benefits of the monks on the temple side, the government and others, as well as the real source of land purchase funds, the total is less than 2000 million. For Jogo, this money is still very worthwhile.

It is impossible for the water plant to spend 2 million yuan all at once. He hopes to get it all done within half a year. In this half year, he can usually guarantee a working capital of [-] million to [-] million yuan.

Qiao Ge thought for a while, and he had to make money quickly, otherwise, if he continued to spend like this, his funds would be cut off.

Now among the industries I have acquired, some have just started on the right track and have not yet started to make money, and some have just been acquired, which can be sorted out and are about to start normal operations.

So, Jogo doesn't have much profit point now.

However, these companies under his name are running well. For example, the freight company has begun to make profits, but the profit is not at the same level as what he spends, which is almost negligible.

Of course, Qiao Ge is not afraid that his capital chain will be broken just like that.

Three months later, Ivanov's goods can make him a lot of money.

Half a year later, the TV series "Ramayana" should make me a big hit, and then clothing should be able to become my cash cow.

If they can catch up, organic agriculture and mineral water can be launched almost at the same time as clothing, even if they can't catch up, they can be delayed for a few months.

Anyway, it takes a while for TV dramas to play, and the popularity will continue, and the effect will get better and better.

Moreover, Qiao Ge has a second TV series filming plan, and the popularity of mythological dramas can last for a long time, which can consolidate his economic foundation.

In fact, even if the remaining [-] million is almost enough to support his next expenses.

Because he doesn't have any big investments for the time being, he has to spend time digesting the crazy investments during this period.

Wait until the digestion is complete before setting off.

For Jogo, other industries can also make money one after another. Even if they don’t earn much at the beginning, they will gradually add up over time, which can cover many other costs.

Jogo is still very confident about this.
