Chapter 324 Shake people
After talking to Franklin on the phone, Lu Chen was in a very good mood. He couldn't wait to call Fu Mingzhuo to tell him the good news and urged him to devote all his efforts to the production of weapons and uniforms.
After hanging up the phone, Lu Chen fell into deep thought. Now that the problem of weapons supply has been solved, it is time to consider road construction. This road is of vital importance to Lu Chen, but it is obviously impossible to complete this arduous task with his own strength alone. Therefore, he needs to find a partner to share the cost of road construction.
In New York, there are not many people who have the ability to participate in road construction. In addition to Morgan, the first person Lu Chen thought of was Adams. As the head of the family, Adams has enough funds and resources to support such a project. In addition, Lu Chen also thought of Duncan, the friend from the shipbuilding family. He believed that Duncan could also provide some financial assistance.
Finally, he thought of a person - Dio Rockefeller. He was a member of the Rockefeller family. If he could get his support and help, then the road construction would go smoothly. Although Dio did not live in New York State, if he could get his help, it should not be a big problem.
Lu Chen called Adams first. Soon, Adams' surprised voice came from the microphone: "Lu Chen? Why did you call me suddenly? We haven't contacted for a long time."
Lu Chen replied somewhat embarrassedly: "I've been too busy recently and haven't had time to contact you."
Adams did not embarrass Lu Chen on this matter, but directly asked:
"Tell me, what is the matter with you calling me today, you busy man?"
Lu Chen smiled and said, "Good news. I have a money-making project here. I wonder if you are interested in it, Adams."
"What project?"
Adams's doubtful voice came from the microphone.
Lu Chen introduced: "I got a highway construction project from the president. I wonder if you are interested in participating."
“Build the road!”
Adams thought for a while and said, "It costs a lot of money to build the road, and the cost of maintenance is not low. It will take a long time to get back the investment. I think it's not worth it."
Lu Chen patiently explained, "This road will connect two states. If it is built, we can collect tolls to recover the cost. Moreover, after the road is built, it will greatly promote the local economic development. We can also build some gas stations, restaurants and other facilities on the roadside, which are additional sources of income."
Adams was moved after hearing what Lu Chen said, but he was still a little hesitant: "It sounds good, but building a road is not an easy task. It requires a lot of money and technical support. Can we do it?"
Lu Chen thought for a moment and replied, "Regarding the cost of road construction, I actually have a way to reduce it, and I can ensure that the quality of the road built exceeds that of Route 66, without the need for large-scale maintenance work every year. This way we don't have to spend so much money.
And I will also bring some people with me so that we can have enough funds to build this road."
After hearing Lu Chen's plan, Adams nodded in approval, but still asked curiously: "So how do you plan to implement the construction of this road?"
Lu Chen thought for a moment and responded, "It's not convenient to explain this question in detail over the phone. How about this, you come to my house on Sunday and we can discuss it in depth in person."
After discussing with Adams, Lu Chen called Duncan. At first, Duncan did not agree to participate in this matter, but after Lu Chen persuaded him and promised to give him a series of benefits, he finally agreed to come to Lu Chen's house to check the situation.
Finally, Lu Chen called Dio and explained the road construction to him. As Lu Chen expected, Dio showed great interest in the project and readily agreed to go to Lu Chen's house on Sunday to discuss the details.
Time passed quickly, and it was Sunday in the blink of an eye. Lu Chen got up early in the morning. He ordered his men to go out and buy a lot of ingredients, and sent Hans to the Lu Industrial Park to invite several professional chefs. After everything was ready, Lu Chen waited for Dior and others to arrive.
Dior and the others did not keep Lu Chen waiting for long. When the sun just climbed above the treetops, the sound of a car driving outside Lu Chen's villa was heard. Lu Chen immediately went out to greet them. The first person to arrive was Adams. Adams, wearing a neat suit, walked out of the car gracefully. Lu Chen quickly walked up to Adams and hugged him warmly.
Afterwards, Lu Chen looked at Adams carefully and said teasingly, "Hey, you are doing well now! Looking at your suit and tie, I wonder how many ignorant girls' hearts you have deceived."
Adams immediately showed an unhappy look after hearing this, and retorted seriously: "I didn't cheat anyone, they all did it willingly. Moreover, I gave them a sum of money to settle down after each breakup, so how can it be said that I cheated?"
Lu Chen muttered in his heart: "You are not cheating, you are floating! In the future, this kind of behavior will be arrested, detained for 15 days, and fined!" As he thought, he led Adams into the villa. Then, he quickly went back to the door and continued to observe the situation outside.
Time passed by minute by minute, and finally at noon, people began to arrive. However, what surprised Lu Chen was that there was one more person than expected - Fu Mingzhuo had quietly followed Hans to the villa.
