Chapter 63: Preparations for Speculation

While Colonel Dimitrievich and his friends were preparing to make trouble with Austria-Hungary, Eder was also busy in his office.

"Ding ding" The crown prince rang the summoning bell on the table, and a young guard walked into the office. Edel handed a document with his comments attached to it and handed it to the guards who walked in. "Mijuli, send this document to the Prime Minister."

The guard, Mijuli, reached out and took the papers. "Yes, Your Highness." Turning to leave the office, Edel picked up another report and began to look at it.

"What a headache, are all the officials in Galatz stupid." Seeing the contents of this report, Edel couldn't help but curse. This is a case of a local government official covering up a rich man's crime, which is estimated to be a bit arrogant after staying in the local area for a long time, and the blatant cover-up caused local riots. "Ding Ding Ding," Edel hurriedly rang the summoning bell.

"Your Highness, what are your orders?" A guard trotted in and asked.

"Take this document to the Ministry of Supervision and tell them to tell the officials who caused this riot to get out of the way immediately." Edel handed the papers to the guards and said to his guards in an undisguised tone of displeasure.

"Your Highness, I will convey your meaning to the Ministry of Supervision." The guard took the paper and spoke to him. It is believed that this official will soon feel the 'concern' of the crown prince. After reading this report, Edel suddenly lost interest in continuing to work, and he leaned back in his chair and sighed, feeling a sense of exhaustion in his body and mind.

"I really feel like I want to put down my work and go out and have a look," Edel thought to himself.

"Da, da, da." A knock on the door interrupted his thoughts. Edel quickly adjusted his sitting posture and his expression returned.

"Please come in."

"Your Highness, this is the rubber material you need." The chief of the guard, Calust, walked in front of the crown prince after entering the door. Sent the information to the crown prince's desk.

"What's the whole investigation?" Edel didn't look at the information first, and asked his chief of guard first.

"According to the rubber market survey in London, Singapore, and Rio de Janeiro, it seems that there will be a big market for rubber at the moment." Caluster replied.

After listening to his chief guard's analysis, Edel picked up the information and looked at it. With the great development of the automobile industry, the demand for rubber has increased dramatically. At the same time, rubber has also become an emerging material for many industrial products, which is very popular. Last year, the UK imported a total of £840,000 of rubber, which increased to £1.41 million this year, and the US also imported $57 million of rubber, which increased to $70 million this year.

According to the data, the price of rubber in the London market rose from 2 shillings per pound to 2 shillings and 15 pence before the launch of the Model T, and now the price of rubber in the London market has risen by another 15 pence to 3 shillings and 10 pence.

"You're almost ready to go." After reviewing the information, Edel made a conclusion in his mind that speculation needs to be prepared in advance.

"Chief Guard, call Captain Wariochi tomorrow." Edel spoke to Calust.

"Okay, Your Highness, I'll have someone bring news to Governor Wariochi in a moment." Caluster spoke to the crown prince.

"You go find two more reliable people who understand Chinese and English, I guess you need to use them." Edel said to the chief of the guard a little wistfully.

Caluster didn't know why the crown prince was suddenly melancholy, but Eder's request was a little difficult for him right now. There are not a few people who can speak English in Romania, but knowing Chinese is really rare, and the chief of the guard can only go to the school to see if there is a suitable candidate. Seeing that his head guard was a little tangled, Eder felt that he was a little too demanding.

"You don't need to be proficient in Chinese, you just need to be able to understand the conversation and understand the text." Eder decided to lower the point requirement anyway.

"Okay, Your Highness, I'll do it." The chief of the guard led the task given by the crown prince and went out.

Eder is also very entangled in whether to send someone to Shanghai now, and now he can only prepare first.

Just when the crown prince was entangled because of his personal feelings, as the president of the Industrial and Commercial Bank of Romania, Wariochi could be described as proud. As a small bank owner on the verge of bankruptcy, Wariochi had suffered a lot. Now those who gave him hardships are all going to slap him, how can he not let him walk with a red face.

All of this requires the help of nobles, and the nobles of Wariochi are our Crown Prince Eder. In Eder's acquisition and consolidation of these small banks to form the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China, Wariochi was the first to sell his own bank and was promoted to vice president by the crown prince. Later, I saw that he had good ability, and he was very obedient, so he was turned into a president.

As Wariochi sat in his office lamenting his good opportunity, "Is President Wariochi in there?" An inquiring voice came in. That's when he heard his secretary's answer. "May I ask you for something about our president? I'll go and report it. ”

"It's not that I'm looking for him, it's the crown prince who is looking for him."

When Wariochi heard the word 'crown prince', he hurriedly tidied up his clothes. Then I saw my secretary walking in with a young man in his twenties.

"Hello, I don't know if Your Highness needs me." Wariochi was the first to smile and ask the guards from the palace.

"Your Highness will summon you in the palace tomorrow morning, Governor Warriochi." The guard stated the purpose of the trip.

"Your Highness's summons will arrive on time, can you please ask what is the matter?" Wariochi asked the guard. Spotting the guard, he looked at himself and explained with a smile. "I just want to prepare in advance so that the crown prince is more informed."

"I don't know about this, I need to go back to my life." The guards didn't give an answer, and they planned to go back.

"Then thank you, gentleman."

After seeing off the guards who had brought the news, Wariochi sat down in his office chair and pondered. In the absence of a clear direction, only all aspects must be prepared, and it seems that we need to work overtime tonight.

The next day, Wariochi sat in the waiting room of the palace and waited for the crown prince to summon him. In the waiting room, Wariochi was still checking the papers, and at about half past ten, a guard came in and told him that the crown prince was waiting for him.

Wariochi walked into the Crown Prince's office, and after seeing Eder saluting, he said, "I've seen Your Highness." ”

Edel asked, looking at the governor he had chosen in front of him. "How's banking going now?"

"Now the bank is developing very well, because we all know that ICBC is owned by the royal family, so most of them are willing to deposit money with us."

After hearing Governor Wariochi's words, Eder continued to ask, still satisfied. "If you are asked to withdraw funds without affecting the normal operation of the bank, how much can you withdraw? By the way, it takes a year to use these funds. ”

After hearing the crown prince's question, Governor Wariochi did not answer immediately, but mentally calculated how much money he could draw, and Eder did not bother him. After a few minutes, Wariochi spoke to the crown prince. "Your Highness, after calculation, the bank can withdraw funds worth £1.2 million."

After hearing Wariochi's words, Eder asked some more about the current situation of the bank, and let President Wariochi leave.

In his mind, Eder calculated that he could mobilize 870,000 pounds of money, after deducting the loan to be repaid and the construction of the power plant under construction, and the bank's funds, a total of 2.07 million pounds could be saved in this crisis.
