But he had to do it. Real estate was essentially the model most large sustainable train operators used. Even Hong Kong had the famous R+P model, which was subsequently replicated everywhere else in the world.
That moment, he noticed there’s a new real estate submenu which he could select, and once selected, a menu appeared.

Hmm. That wasn’t much, and it didn’t tell him how much each of the property costs anyway. Increased ridership sounds good, and they even pay rent.
But what’s the outlay? Tod only had $29million left, and he needed the best bang for his buck in order to grow quickly!

Oh. It’s cheaper to buy land in the outlying areas, and cheaper to build too! He looked at the numbers and had a brief headache. He had to calculate what’s the best way to spend is $29m!

A Martial Odyssey
Our community discord. With one step, an ocean is crossed. With one swing, an immortal is slain. Grisla Orlith's name has been in contention for centuries; millenia. Has he ever existed? Is it true about him? They hear of the future, but they don't know his past. Assumed as a genius from heaven, a warrior without peer. But back then, from those that knew of him... only saw a worthless boy. [Adventure, Wuxia, Martial Arts, Fantasy] For those not in the know, this is a book with some western and eastern fantasy sprinkled in. This is a work coming from someone who's a long time fan of the genre and would like to add my own flavor and spin to it, and I particularly dislike the shallow xianxia characterization and development. To counteract that is about eighty percent of the reason I'm writing this. The beginning might be a slow burn but I promise I'm bringing up some awesome scenes and moments once you're invested. Again, this is not some fast food xianxia. But I can say that as a lover of the genre I won't be completely shying away from the stuff that got myself hooked into it in the first place. DISCORD NOW AVAILABILE!
