Chapter 55: 55. Edit 9
"You....You brought the whole street?"
Max was flabbergasted, looking at her with wide eyes as he was trying to process what she said.
His Stellar group is rich but not the richie rich level, he can’t just decide to just buy the whole business street.
Most of the property is privately owned, even if city officials agree, they can just buy ⅓ of it at best, rest has to be brought separately from other businesses, costing them a fortune.
"Yeah, I got it for cheap, it just cost us 110 Billion UC."
Casandra gave him a wide happy smile as she excitedly started to tell him how "cheap" she got the whole street.
And she even saved a lot on the tax, as 15% of commercial property tax it would have cost them around 16.5 billion.
But because of 90% off now they just pay 1.65 billion, saving 14.85 billion upfront just like that.
Not to mention most of the businesses rent property here on the streets from their owner, which is now them.
This earns them around 4 billion UC yearly and gets them more connections and control too.
And with an average 10% increase in the rent each year because of the location, they would recover their money in 14 years and if adjusted to average 6% inflation rate approximately around 20 years.
Not to mention all combined assets value itself is 110.5 Billion right now and it’s just going to increase more and more.
So they were already in profit, and if the economy of the whole country did not just collapse they made a lot of money.
"Do we have that much money??"
Max hearing the number was stunned, really he was stupefied.
Yeah his company is valued at 1.8 trillion UC but that’s just on paper, actual cash flow should not be more than 100 billions.
And that too is generous margins, as most of the value is tied up in assets.
"Oh yeah, I know what you talking about, the cash flow currently running little dry but owing Stellar motor vehicle company was a must, It has the government contracts .....the Military contracts, We already earn back our money with their latest order of 500 combat vehicles."
Casandra understand what he was talking about and so she tried to explain to him.
Yeah, she bought a motor vehicle company just a month ago for 50 billion UC and renamed it Stellar Motors and Vehicles.
But honestly, it was a necessary move. If they hadn’t bought it, someone else would’ve, and it made perfect sense.
The company already held government and military contracts, and there’s one business that never has to worry about sales is arms trading.
They already own several weapons manufacturing plants, producing both indigenous designs and licensed foreign weapons through alliances with partner nations.
Sales aren’t great as they have their own suppliers, but the real value lies in access, they can use licensed models for free, essentially printing money— but legally.
And now with vehicle manufacturing, they would be making whooping 20% of all military arsenals of the country.
That in itself earns them around 20+ Billions per year.
Not to mention their Steller motor and vehicles sell lots of heavy duty, commercial vehicles too.
It was really no brainer move if she did not buy it.
’.....Ho- *Ahem* How much money do we actually have in reserves currently?"
Max was really trying his hardest not to yell out.
This woman is spending money like water left and right.
Right now he really needed to know how much actual cash flow they had, fearing his Stellar group would also end up like his current company, on the verge of bankruptcy.
"Oh let me check....*typing* Here, putting the necessary working funds aside for the year, we have 299.5 Billion for spare....No wait my bad forget to add this quarter’s profit, We have 499.9 Billions."
Casandra still is not getting what he is trying to say completely, maybe because all her attention was on trying to please him, and get a few praises from him for her work.
So in a rush she pulled out her big smartphone, starting typing on the screen before she gave him how much money they actually have.
But maybe because she is not used to the mobile format, she forgot to add this quarter’s profits, making her quickly correct herself.
This only happens when he is around, other times she works like a well oiled machine.
’I am dumbass, How can this brainless Xiao Bai novel have shred of logic?’
Max was super confused before the hamster wheel in his head started running making him realise he is thinking too much.
He was giving too much credit to the Xiao Bai authors to understand how the economy works.
In their eyes a trillion uc group should have around trillion uc cash flow.
What? That does not make any sense, Since when has anything in here made any sense?
Would collapse the whole economy having that much cash flow because of deflation?
Of course not, if that has to happen it would have happened long ago.
"Here take this, There is 20 billion in it, this is your pocket money of this month, Don’t spend it in just one place."
Casandra not hearing praise from him was a little disappointed but it did not let her down. She reached out in her pocket and took ink-black shiny card and handed it to him.
Then she turned around ready to to her spacial seat.
’Maybe I am richie rich.’
Max was holding that black shiny card and couldn’t help but think to himself. He is comically rich.
Spending 100s of Billion without baiting an eye, having 20 Billion as just pocket money? quarterly profits being in 200s of Billions.
And on top of that he gets extra benefits of being rich, what else could he have asked for? Now he loves his system so much.
"Wait Lilli, Please take Erza with you, She can learn so much from you."
