dark moon

Chapter 360
"It doesn't really matter who is greedy (it's important, okay), the key is those little golden and jingling cuties, they are the most important." Shuer took out a gold coin, thought about it, put it back and changed it. A copper coin was played with at the fingertips, "Look at these gold coins (this is a copper coin, thank you). You control the technology, I control the energy source, and you also have to rely on me to find the control system. Calculating it like this, you This aviation business can be considered a joint operation between us, so it’s actually quite reasonable.”

"I didn't say that the cooperative operation is unreasonable, but splitting half of it? Absolutely impossible." Yulia's attitude was very resolute, without any room for maneuver. "I will provide the labor, I will provide the technology, I will provide the equipment, I will provide the security personnel, and I will provide the management." I'll do it, I'll bear the risk, and you'll just sit back and collect the money after you pay it once, and you actually have to divide it so much, don't even think about it."

"This is the charm of monopoly, Yulia." Shuer said leisurely.

"No matter how monopolistic it is, half is too much." Yulia said seriously, "Sure, doing business is not as simple as you think. Indeed, what you ask for is half of the profit, after deducting all costs. , but there are still many expenses other than costs that cannot be calculated at all. You need to take part of the profits to fill them in. If you directly take half of the profits, it will be very passive in operation. So, I'm sorry, There’s no way I’d accept half the profits.”

"Ha, it's a negotiation, of course it's a bargain." Xiuer was not disappointed at all and said with a smile, "I said my expected price, of course you can also tell me yours."

"The most I'll give you is 20.00%, no more."

"You really dare to say that, Yulia, you cut off more than half of it in one go." Shuer said slowly, "20.00%, hey, do you think it is reasonable? This is unlimited energy, and it has not been damaged for thousands of years. , how can it be used for thousands of years, so it’s worth 20.00%?”

"Huh, then come up with a sincere price. Don't talk about 50.00%. Otherwise, I will kick you off the boat."

"Heh, let's do this. Don't worry about the percentage. Let's just say a fixed number. You will pay the Dark Moon Temple a fixed number of [-] gold coins a year."

"Hey, bastard, how much do you think the profit is in a year? 50.00 gold coins, isn't that still about 20%?" With Yulia's business acumen, she had already calculated the approximate profit of five floating ships. The net profit should be around [-] gold coins, and [-] gold coins is almost half of it. In a bad year, the profit may be more than half.

"This is indeed the case in the first few years, but what about ten years later? What about 20 years later?" Shuer's smile was like a devil. "A fixed number is actually the most beneficial to you, right?"

Yulia stopped talking, and Shuer did talk about the key issue.Indeed, in the first few years or more, the income will not be too high, but with the accumulation of reputation and the change of habits, the income will gradually increase. After a few decades, [-] gold coins will be equivalent to the income of five ships. It’s really not much.

"Oh, I understand. You must have made up your mind to ask for [-] gold coins from the beginning. If you don't say [-], let alone [-], it's [-] gold coins that is neither more nor less. You have secretly calculated it a long time ago, right? ." Yulia flapped her wings as if slapping Xiuer, "Besides, a fixed amount can save you the trouble of checking accounts."

"Praise the Holy Spirit, we are all priests who serve the gods, how can we be with money all day long, and we are not believers in the Temple of Wealth." Xiuer actually admitted with a smile, "and checking the accounts every year is too hurtful, It's better to keep it simple."

This is true. You may earn more with floating income, but you are dealing with expert business people. It is too easy to manipulate the accounts. Maybe now because of Shuer's relationship, Yulia is embarrassed. No matter what tricks you use, Shuer's lifespan is always limited. After he dies, there is no guarantee what Yulia will do. When Yulia dies in a few hundred years, the last bit of friendship will fade away. If the two parties only have pure business dealings, problems will inevitably arise.

As for the fixed number of [-] gold coins per year, it has been notarized by the Contract Temple. No matter how the accounts are manipulated, this number cannot be affected.

"You are tying the Dark Moon Temple to our Gil Seles family and asking us to support you all the time." Yulia sighed, obviously moved, "You have to know, even if the sky The temple, the amount that the family enshrines every year is only [-] gold coins."

That's it?Do you dare to say one more thing and try?

"Haha, they just want to get it, but it's a win-win situation between us." Shuer said with a smile, "So, do you accept it or not?"

"We are all old friends, so I will tell you the truth. Sixty thousand gold coins per year is the upper limit I can accept. There is no point in bargaining. If you agree to sixty thousand gold coins, we will make a deal. If you don't agree, I will There's nothing you can do, you can find someone else." Yulia blinked slyly, "It's just like you said, this is the charm of monopoly, my friend."

Damn it, she reacted.

Xiure scratched his head in distress. Indeed, she was also a monopoly. No one except her would pay such a high price to buy five eternal cores. If the negotiation broke down, she would be the one who would suffer the most.After the cunning winged man calmed down, he had obviously figured out this truth, so he was so confident. Tsk, it seems that the two sides ended up in a draw this time, which is acceptable, but when he thought of losing [-] gold coins, Shuer felt like his heart was bleeding.

Very good, it is very spiritual to regard the part of the money that is not made more as a loss.

"You're being cruel." Xiure gritted his teeth and almost burst into tears. "Sixty thousand, just sixty thousand, but it has to be paid in advance at the beginning of every year."

"Hey, you'll feel uncomfortable if you don't take advantage of me, right?" "That's right."

Lisa always stood aside, listened quietly, and studied seriously. She knew that her brother brought her with him this time just to let her learn from him.Of course, it's not about how shameless he is, Lisa has already learned this thoroughly, but about learning a flexible way of doing things.

This is a thousand-year plan.

Selling a large sum of money at one time is great, but the rules of the Parvatiga Church are that you cannot use church assets for business or investment. No matter how much money you have, there will be a time when it will be used up. But it is different now. Sixty thousand gold coins per year, one For a medium-sized temple, the daily expenses of the priests, the maintenance of facilities, the replacement of equipment, including the maintenance of branch temples, and the travel expenses of outgoing priests, all add up to this number, and in the case of the Dark Moon Temple At today's scale, I'm afraid not even one-sixth of it will be used every year. In other words, once this deal is concluded, as long as the Gilceles family still exists and the aerospace craft is still flying in the sky, the Dark Moon Temple will not need to use it. No longer worrying about funding, not only can the quality of life be improved, but also money can be spent every year to rebuild the temple building. Hundreds of years of wishes have finally seen the light of day.

"The funding issue is just an additional gain. In fact, it is not the main point. It has never been." His eyes swept over Lisa's face. Shuuer seemed to be talking to Yulia, and he seemed to be teaching Lisa, "We Dark Moon The temple wants more than just money, we have a second condition.”

"Wei, right?" Yulia raised her head and complained to the sky, "Look, look, let me just say, your commander is so bad, you have obviously retired to another world. , still refuses to let you go and forces you to go back to work. If I were you, I would ask him for wages."

"Ms. Yulia, I am the mastermind of the base. It is my mission to obey the commander's orders. Moreover, the mastermind has no body and there is no need to pay wages."

"Why not? You have to think about yourself. Replace yourself with a higher-end energy panel, a larger-capacity memory, and a higher-end speaker. Also, if I develop the projection equipment for your world, won't you? Should you change it? Let me tell you, women should be kinder to themselves. Although you don’t need facial masks, lipstick, etc., you also need to..."

"Give me almost a little." Xiure said angrily, "I want to add a clause in the treaty, and you have to provide these to Wei for free."

"Greedy gold-eating beast, go ahead and dream." Yulia made a contemptuous gesture, "I can promise you this. Once you find a replacement, Wei can return it to you, and I can also help you transform it for free. Wei's equipment allows her to use the eternal core you left behind, but for the rest, she has to pay as normal."

"Haha, of course." Xiure nodded with satisfaction, "The second condition has also been agreed upon, so, the third condition..."

"Hey, didn't you just say there are only two conditions?"

"Two conditions lead to three conditions, isn't this common sense?"

"Damn common sense." Yulia decided that if there is any business cooperation in the future, she must squeeze this bastard hard. "What else do you want?"

"Haha, when the aerostat is put into use, Sir Simon will naturally bless the aerostat and the sailors and passengers who believe in Sir Simon in the name of the guardian of the airspace. It will be a mobile worship hall for Sir Simon. Of course it is indispensable." Xiure said leisurely, "But don't you think there is only one chapel, which makes the aerospace vehicle too monotonous?"

"do not think so."

"But I think so." Shuuer spread his hands, "So, I suggest adding another chapel for Lord Luna, and Lord Luna and Lord Simon will jointly bless these passengers. Of course, the daily maintenance will be done by floating The sailors on the boat are responsible. If there is a sailor whose name is added to the list of beliefs, they will be responsible for maintaining the chapel and promoting the glory of Lord Luna and Lord Simon to the passengers. I I think this is a good idea.”

"I have no right to decide this." Yulia thought for a moment and said, "I am not responsible for the issue of ecclesiastical authority. You should talk to Sir Simon's archbishop."

"I know, so I put this in the third item." Shuer looked at the sky in the distance, and the outline of the floating city's bright capital had already appeared in his field of vision, "Then, the agreement is established, once all the conditions are met Once satisfied, our cooperation will officially begin.”

"Very good, the agreement is established." Yulia said seriously, "To celebrate the cooperation between the two parties, would you like to show me the eternal core again?"

"Don't even think about it."
