Chapter 1892 Getting the IFC Contract -Final
"If we are expanding, we will need a decent amount of place. The location matters but space is more prevalent. Creating Dimensional Instance is one thing but there's a need to tell everyone we own the mother freaking basement of IFC." Kraft raised his cup towards Kong Rong and both of them clicked their 'glasses' together.
"He is clearly ripping off you guys, don't you know that? That supposed fifth basement isn't something that had been cleared by the authorities. There is no proper certification -oh what the hell." Kong Rong was about to finish his sentence and Kraft already took out a file and placed it on the table for him to see.
"Don't tell me this is…wow you guys work fast on this." Kong Rong picked it up and saw that several renewed preliminary inspections had been scheduled by Craft Heavy Industries, a supposed German construction company that had been in the business for years.
"I suppose if you are in this, you want some portion of it?"
"Not much, just a dedicated Dimensional Instance for my Night Foxes and me. We are looking to expand the Night Foxes with the Sun Foxes." Kraft smiled and Jin tilted his head a little.
"Sun Foxes? You found elves in the Goblin World?" That was when Jin realised it was not the System or Yun who had leaked the information to Kraft but instead, it was possibly Narris since he did ask her and her group to steal some inventory for him in the Mecha World.
"Not just elves, High Elves. Those proud fools who only knew how to look down on people and did not have any other abilities worthy. Even my juvenile Night Fox is stronger than their average foot soldier."
"I assume the Night Foxes were elated for this particular endeavour but won't they be jealous that they got a dimensional instance closer to our world?"
"Nah, in fact, they are over the moon. It's akin to kicking the High Elves away from their precious kingdom. But we have yet to plan an attack against it."
"Why would you want to do that though? Is it really necessary to create war when we had already made peace with them?" Jin asked and Kong Rong felt this was out of his depth.
"Do you need me to go? I could get a good rest at the Hot Spring Instance -oh oops I should not do that after drinking…" Kong Rong said to himself and then Kraft shook his head.
"The conversation is for another time as my Night Foxes are still scouting the place a little. They had been training all this time just for this revenge. So let me indulge such a chance. Besides, I heard that they have information about the lost Dwarves and rumours have it there's a family of them still staying in the High Elf Kingdom." Kraft replied and Jin will think about it.
"In any case, yes. I hope your clan mate is alright after that incident." Kraft returned to the topic at hand.
"He is obviously not. He signed something that needed the board's decision first. At best a good reprimanding for not following the rules but who knows? You just offered them an olive branch if I am not mistaken."
"Why do you say that?" Jin asked and Kong Rong gave them some insider info.
"The IFC Holdings itself is facing some financial difficulties and they are looking to liquidate or inflate the rental prices for their mall."
"Shouldn't they be quite stable? I mean if IFC Holdings is having trouble with financial difficulties, we are looking at problems surfacing throughout China's economy" Jin commented.
"Their overseas investments did not go as planned and the losses in potential profit are making them losing millions as well. So, they giving you a basement and you injecting 50 million is like throwing a lifebuoy at them before the government noticed them."
"Heh. Then by having Jin's store underneath IFC, it will not only increase the appeal of the mall and commercial building but give them the reason to raise the rentals for other shops since there will be an increased influx of tourists going in there." Kraft reasoned and the trio could see the benefit IFC is reaping since they would not be able to get any more Jin since they had sold the space to him.
"You should get Xiong Da or his specialist lawyers to look into this in case they could find a loophole to exploit us before getting into a proper contract," Kraft added and Jin nodded his head.
"Although I am rather curious, why the need for emphasising two sets of escalators and I assume stairs as well into basement five?" Kong Rong asked
"Have you seen our queues?" Both Kraft and Jin said together and they laughed. "Not to mention, we are four basements down," Jin remarked.
"Can't you just use the store that they allowed you to use to teleport them down to the basement? I mean if I am not wrong, you are going to dimensional instances so why all the hassle?"
"The Car Park Service Instance needs space and we can earn a lot from that alone now that we possess a basement. We just need more space than usual." Jin said as he flicked the holographic console and the System showed Kong Rong the details.
"Holy shit. You earned that much just by doing car parking?!?" Kong Rong could not believe the figures and he was seeing tens of thousands in a day's profit just from the Tree Mall car park alone which brought him to utter disbelief.
