Chapter 256: Young Owner
"Think about it, if a central bank is really established, then all the banks in the kingdom of St. Terea will be regulated, and I am afraid that your life will not be too easy. ", the eldest prince said unhurriedly.
And his words also expressed the worries of the five tycoons present, they looked at each other, and finally it was Zobel who broke the silence, "The establishment of a central bank is such a great thing, I'm afraid it won't go so smoothly." ”
"The royal family will pass a law and implement a registration and authorization system, and banks that are not allowed to do so without a record with the Central Bank will not be allowed to operate. The eldest prince said another astonishing news, looking at the disbelieving expressions of the five big bankers, he emphasized: "You must have underestimated the determination of the royal family, with the support of the army, this is not a fantasy. ”
"In fact, this plan has been in the works for many years, and if it weren't for some delays, it would have been carried out a long time ago. ", the eldest prince finally added.
When the five big bankers heard the words of the great prince, their faces all became much more solemn, and for a while, the whole room fell into silence again. They knew what the delay in the words of the great prince was, and they were afraid that it was because of the competition for the crown prince that Grievous the Great postponed the preparation of the central bank, fearing that the two major events would cause chaos in the entire kingdom.
"You don't have to worry too much, in my opinion, the establishment of a central bank is a good thing for you. The eldest prince smiled loudly, focusing the attraction of everyone, and at this time he had completely grasped the leading power of this meeting.
"I wonder what His Highness has to say?", Zobel asked respectfully, asking questions on behalf of the other four as if he were an agent.
"The establishment of a central bank does not happen overnight, and according to my vision, it is better to bring in some powerful bankers as directors. After all, it is not a good thing for a layman to lead an insider, and it is better to have a few strong banks in the central bank to help manage and coordinate. ”
The eldest prince looked around and found that these people looked like gluttonous cats seduced by the fragrance of fish, with a heart-warming expression on their faces, knowing that the bait they had set up had worked. He continued triumphantly.
"You are all one of the top bankers in the Kingdom of St. Teresa, and what is even more rare is that you all have a hot heart to serve the country, and you must be willing to share the country's worries. As for the greedy bankers who disrupt the market order and only accumulate money, the Violet royal family will not let them continue to do evil. ", the eldest prince said meaningfully.
The five men looked at each other, all shrewd businessmen. Immediately, I heard the hint in the words of the great prince: if you can join this central bank, you will gain very large administrative power, and you can even rectify those competitors who were annoying in the past. Of course, the price of gaining this power is to support the Great Prince and put him on the throne in the palace.
This is an irresistible temptation for these people. The eldest prince first beat with a big stick, and then gave a carrot, and after a series of attacks, the five big bankers really couldn't resist, and obediently agreed to the conditions for continuing to contribute, and the amount was more than originally promised.
......
In the middle of the night, when the night was lonely, several horse-drawn carriages ghostly left the club one after another, blending into the vast night. One of the carriages drove into an alley in Manny, and then two more carriages pulled out of the alley and left separately. One of them circled around the city for most of the city, eventually stopping outside a nondescript hut in an area north of Manny.
One of the people who walked out of it was the big banker who had just been in the club to discuss something important with everyone, and he looked around cautiously to make sure that no one was following, and then knocked on the door.
After uttering the secret words and entering the room, Zobel finally breathed a sigh of relief, sat down in his chair tiredly, and said, "I never thought that I would do such a thing as a spy, and I would do it twice a day. ”
There was already someone waiting in the house, and he smiled and said, "That's your pampering in the Holy Radiance City, dear Zobelle." If you were in the North before, you wouldn't have said such a thing. ”
"What you taught you is, Shaodong, I have neglected to exercise over the years. Zobel hurriedly stood up and respectfully apologized to the young man in front of him.
The young man, whom the great banker called "the young proprietor" with such respect, was the president of the White Rose Company, Sauron Walkerworth, and even in this dilapidated cottage, the handsome young merchant still shines brightly.
If there were any merchants in Manny District, his jaw would have been dislocated with fear. In everyone's impression, the Zobel comptoir is one of the largest banks in Shenghui City, and its ruler is a big figure in the business circles of Manny District. The White Rose Firm, on the other hand, was nothing more than an outsider from the North, and Sauron Walkwards was as weak as an ant and a lion compared to Zobel's position in the business world.
But now the situation is completely reversed, Zobel is respectful in front of Zoro, and he doesn't even dare to breathe, he has never been so weak in front of His Royal Highness the Great Prince before.
Zoro shook his hand, "It's not a blame, you sit down and repeat the conversation with the Great Prince, don't miss a word." ”
Zobel nodded, and quickly repeated the content of the meeting, and Zoro nodded thoughtfully after listening.
"I have also heard about the establishment of a central bank, but there are many cases involved, and there is a lot of resistance, especially many nobles involved in this matter are opposed to this matter, and I did not expect that the eldest prince would use this matter as bait. He sneered, "He made a big banner with a tiger skin, and made empty promises with things that have not yet been skimmed, that is, to scare and scare you people who have no inside information." ”
He thought for a moment and continued: "Listening to your description, the five of you have reached a consensus, right?"
"Indeed, the five of us have reached an agreement and agreed to the request of the eldest prince. Zobel looked at Zoro cautiously: "If you regret it, I'm afraid it will take a lot of effort to convince the other four, after all, I proposed this head first, and they will definitely be suspicious." ”
"Why do you want to repent, you just be a leader, guide the other four families to agree to it all, the eldest prince wants money to give money, ask for things to give things, don't be stingy, don't delay, in short, put on a posture of full support. Zoro said with a smile.
