Rebirth of England.

Chapter 766 Low-Rent Housing

Kolo has already retaliated against Benin's provocation. And to be honest, although this conflict has caused some losses to Kolo, Benin has not gained any benefits at all...

It can be said that it is completely harmful to others and not beneficial to oneself.

If they wanted to have peace talks now, Kolo could totally accept it - revenge had been taken, and it could be considered as actual combat training...

The most important thing is that Chloe is developing rapidly now and doesn't want to be disturbed.

Of course, this time when Jammeh Bongo went to Nigeria, he definitely went with conditions.

Anyway, you don’t have to talk, but if you want to fight, the Kolo Army is not afraid at all.

Jammeh Bongo met with Barron before leaving for Nigeria.

During this meeting, the two people not only discussed the peace talks with Benin, but also the development of Kolo.

Every month, Barron receives reports on Kolo’s development from the Kolo Development and Reform Research Center. This institution was first established by Barron in London and moved here after Kolo was "liberated". Most of Kolo's development plans and related policies come from this research center.

On the surface, the Kolo Development and Reform Research Center is responsible to the President of Kolo and provides intellectual support for the development of Kolo.

But in fact, this research center is implementing Barron's will in formulating relevant policies and development plans.

Of course, economically, Barron does not need to suck too much blood from Colo. Instead, he will provide support for Colo's development. But the premise of all this is that many aspects of Colo's economy, politics and military are under his control.

As the president of Kolor, Jammeh Bongo naturally understands this very well, and he is also willing to be a part of Barron's control over Kolor.

More than half of his second presidential term has passed. In less than two years, in 2012, Colo will face another general election.

According to the constitution of Kolor, Jammeh Bongo can serve a maximum of two terms as president, so he will no longer be eligible to participate in the general election as a candidate at that time. He will resign as leader of the Kolor People's Party and let others participate in the general election.

Therefore, Jammeh Bongo’s only hope now is to successfully complete this term, and he has no other ideas.

After all, as the president of Kolo, Barron has left a certain share of shares in the West African Group for Jammeh Bongo. With these shares, Jammeh Bongo's family is destined to become one of the aristocratic families of Kolo. As long as he does not make mistakes, their family's position in Kolo will be determined.

As the founder and first leader of the Kolo People's Party, the largest party in Kolo, he also has enormous influence in it, enough to ensure that his descendants have a higher starting point.

Jammeh Bongo's eldest son, Nicolas Bongo, is currently studying at Cambridge University. When he graduates and returns to Kolo, he will be able to inherit a considerable amount of Jammeh Bongo's political legacy.

Well, given the relationship between the Devonshire family and Cambridge University, it would be very easy for Barron to recommend an outstanding young man from Colo to study at Cambridge University...

……

After arriving in Britta, the capital of Kolo, Barron and his friends moved into the Jupiter Building, a super luxury house built specifically for him by Golden Africa Real Estate. Although the Jupiter Building is not the tallest building in Britta, the West Africa Building, which is over 120 meters high and located in the center of the commercial district, is the headquarters of the West Africa Group and is currently the tallest building in Britta.

However, in Brittany's urban landscape, the uniquely shaped Jupiter Building is still one of the most eye-catching buildings.

This 50-meter-high, 11-story building is located in the center of Brittany's most upscale residential area.

In addition to 15 luxurious living suites, the building also has a large swimming pool, a private cinema, an over-sized gym, a family hospital, and a sky garden and observation deck on the top floor.

On one side of the Jupiter Building is Brittany's Central Park, which has an elegant environment. The area near the building is a restricted area of ​​the Central Park and is not open to the public. There are guards on duty 24 hours a day. It is a park within a park that belongs exclusively to the Jupiter Building and the surrounding most upscale villa area.

The most unique scenery of Jupiter Building is the waterfall flowing down from the roof of one side of the building, which can fall directly into the small lake in the park below.

Especially at night, it is very gorgeous under the lighting.

"With the development of Kolo, more and more foreigners have come here, which has also driven the development of cities including Britta and Dassault. In addition, with the formation of middle- and high-income groups, the demand for good residential communities is increasing. Therefore, our Golden Africa Real Estate Company has become the largest real estate company in Kolo through mergers and acquisitions..."

In Barron's study on the 9th floor of the Jupiter Building, he met Ramesh Serrano, the new CEO of West Africa Group. He had just taken over the position of CEO of West Africa Group at the beginning of this year. Prior to that, he served as vice president of West Africa Group after his outstanding performance in West Africa Ports Group.

Previously, the CEO of West Africa Group, Eno Duran, was appointed by Jammeh Bongo as the finance minister of Kolo after the previous finance minister of Kolo was unable to continue his duties due to illness.

It was also at that time that Ramesh Serrano was offered the position of CEO for his outstanding performance in the West Africa Group.

Just as Ramesh introduced to Barron, due to economic development, the real estate industry in Colo has also ushered in explosive growth.

Especially in emerging cities such as Brittany and Dassault, their real estate development is more rapid than that of Loti, which has long become the largest city in Colo.

Of course, because of the support of the West Africa Group, their Golden Africa Real Estate Company can also obtain the best land in these cities, thus developing rapidly.

"In addition to commercial real estate, Golden Africa Real Estate also bears social responsibilities. We have been commissioned by the Kolo government to build more than 1 low-rent houses for low-income groups in the two cities of Loti and Britta. The profits from these projects are not high, but they can help us exercise our construction capabilities..."

Currently, more than 70% of Kolo's low-rent housing is built in the city of Loti. Its main purpose, in addition to ensuring the housing of some low-income people, is to facilitate the demolition of slums formed due to historical reasons.

Many of these slums are located in the center of Loti, and the people who live in them do not have so-called "property rights"...

Even so, it was impossible for the local government to directly drive these people away, so it commissioned the Golden Africa Real Estate Company to build low-rent housing in the new urban area. Many of the low-rent houses provided to slum residents had negligible rents and were only used as properties for these low-rent houses.

In this way, after the poor are relocated, the slums can be demolished and the city can be replanned and converted into commercial centers or high-end residential buildings.

Not only can economic benefits be obtained, but the city appearance can also be greatly improved, making the city cleaner and tidier. It can be said to be a win-win situation.
