Chapter 153: The Golden Pound (Subscription Requested!! )
The warehouse, located in the north of the Thames, on the outskirts of the town of Romford, is not far from the docks, and is close to the railway platform, so that goods can be picked up at any time.
"After the completion of the Metropolitan Metro, transportation has become more convenient, and there are many transportation options to choose from...."
Walking in the warehouse area, Freya pointed to the tall brick and stone warehouses, and introduced the surroundings to Mavi, I have to say that in addition to some problems such as the location of the warehouse is too far from the city center and the security nearby, the Hevring district is indeed very suitable for storing goods.
If the police, witchers, and gangsters in Hefring all support the second prince as Freya said, these problems will be solved.
As she walked, Freya suddenly stopped and opened the door of a warehouse, the warehouse was dimly lit, although it was empty, but it could only vaguely see the situation inside, lighting has always been a big problem, the old kerosene lamp will have the risk of fire once it overturns, and you must pay attention to open flames in areas like warehouses that need to be kept dry.
The surrounding walls are also plastered with red fire ban signs, constantly reminding those who enter.
"Nicholas."
Freya turned around, motioned to the accompanying butler to step aside, stretched out her right hand with white lace gloves, took out a large deposit slip from her bag, and brought it to Ma Wei: "There are 300,000 gold pounds here, which can be exchanged for cash at the Central Bank of London...."
"What for?" Ma Wei didn't receive the deposit slip, frowned and asked, "Why do you want to give me money?" ”
"Haven't you been short of money lately?"
"Who told you I was short of money?"
"Aren't you short of money?"
“.......”
Mavi was short of money, but he had never told anyone else that he was short of money, at least Freya shouldn't have known about his plans to buy back the shares.
"The day after tomorrow, Manstein's Potions Company will be listed on the London Stock Exchange, after listing, although the company will get a large amount of liquidity, but Nicholas your equity will also be diluted, although this money is not much, it is also a little bit of my heart, you can take it, even if I lend it to you, no interest, no need for an IOU." Freya said.
No interest, no IOUs .... Such a request, even if you borrow a small amount, but this is a whole 300,000 gold pounds!
In a word, a certificate of deposit gave away 300,000 gold pounds?
"Is money such a worthless thing to you?" Mavi asked.
"You told me that there is something more important in this world than money." Freya said: "I gave you this money so that you can buy back the shares in the market, and Shukri and they have already prepared a large amount of money, and plan to wait until the day of the listing to buy the shares of the Manstein Potions Company in a big way, and at the same time buy the shares of Charles and Andrew's Potions Company in case of emergency." ”
"The shares you put out will eventually become Shukri's pockets, and on the surface they support you, but secretly, they will guarantee that they own 51% of the Manstein Potions Company, and if you miss this opportunity, you may not be able to buy a large amount of equity again."
"Shukri, they support you, there is no doubt about that, but their support for you does not mean that they will let you control the company, and going public is a way for the board of directors to intervene in the company."
Freya said with a serious expression: "If you are willing to marry me and become the new duke, then Shukri will warmly welcome you to join, but you are not willing to accept me now, you are never from Windsor, you can leave at any time, this is an unstable state for Shukri, unless you accept their conditions, otherwise.... You'll never get their trust. ”
"Is it on condition to marry you?"
"Marrying me is the easiest and easiest thing to do." Freya didn't shy away from anything at all, and said calmly: "Shukri wants to use me and tie you firmly to his ship, you don't agree, they don't say it, but they still think about it in their hearts, you have to prepare in advance, if you move too slowly, the potions company will operate for a period of time in the future, and after the countries establish trade relations.... Your existence, I'm afraid, is not so important. ”
"You are a member of the second prince's camp, why do you want to help me?"
"I got close to him because I have known him since I was a child, and we have a good relationship, but that doesn't mean I have to follow his orders." Freya said word by word: "What do I want to do, who I want to help, it's my freedom, Shukri is not qualified to order me, he used to ask me for help, I saw that I helped him in love, now I want to help you, what he says is useless." ”
The communication next to him, Daniel's jaw was about to fall when he heard it, in their eyes, Freya has always been a member of the second prince's camp, why did she turn against her now?
Big brother didn't do anything!
I just met a few times and chatted a few words.... And conquered Freya, the duchess?
Are you kidding....
"Why, don't you want this money?"
Ma Wei shook his head slowly: "Don't." ”
Hearing this, Freya stopped persuading, took back the large deposit slip back to the bag, turned her head and walked towards the outside of the warehouse, and when she reached the door, she suddenly said: "You don't want money, you don't want status, Nicholas.... What exactly do you want? ”
“........”
"You're not a businessman, at least, not an ordinary businessman." Freya said without looking back, "I'm getting more and more interested in you, Nicholas, but next time, remember to act like a normal person.... Greedy for money and lustful, this is the normal appearance of most men. ”
Without giving Mavi a chance to answer, Freya got into the carriage and left the warehouse area, and after she left, the source and Daniel said in unison, "Big brother, why did you refuse her!" That's 300,000 gold pounds! Wouldn't it be good to take it first and give it back to her another day? ”
"I suspect she's the Asmodeus of the Four Pillars."
"What?!"
The communication and Daniel subconsciously looked at Edward, Edward was probably one of the seventy-two pillar demon gods, it.... Surely know Asmodeus, who is also the supreme four-pillar.
"Don't look at me, I can't tell Freya's true identity." Edward said: "Asmodeus, who appeared last night, is unrecognizable, which proves that Asmodeus is more powerful than me, and its disguise is beyond my recognition. ”
"If Freya is the Asmodeus of the Four Pillars of the Supreme Pillar, a demon, the 300,000 gold pounds she gave is a gift from the devil." Ma Wei said quietly: "Do you dare to accept the demon's gift? ”
The communication thought for a moment and said, "What happens if you accept it?" ”
"I don't know, but it's certainly not free."
"Actually, I don't think you need to be afraid, big brother." The communication scratched his head and said: "Sooner or later, the god of faith will have a war with the ancient gods, and in that case, it doesn't matter what gifts it gives or not.... Can't you just take it all and it's over? ”
"What if she has to pay me for it?"
"Wouldn't that be better?"
“?”
"Ahem..."The source coughed: "I mean, if Freya is the supreme four pillars, you don't need to pay attention to her request, big brother, because everyone is an enemy!" If Freya is not the supreme four pillars, then there is no need to be afraid, she lent us 300,000 gold pounds today, and you can pay her back another day! It's a big deal to give more interest! ”
Ma Wei's thoughts are the opposite of the communication.
He doesn't like to owe people the most, especially favors, and it's the hardest to pay off.
Why did the communication provoke Tiffany, Helena, and Gina at the same time?
Because he doesn't know how to say no at the right time.
There are boundaries in the relationship between people, and if you cross the boundary, you will enter the next stage, and the communication does not pay attention to the boundaries, which makes the relationship difficult to solve, and he does not have the courage to refuse Tiffany and them, which leads to the situation to become more serious, and Mavi has been rejecting Freya, so that the relationship between us remains in a more stable state and will not deteriorate further.
If it was determined that Freya was the supreme four pillars, Ma Wei would definitely accept the 300,000 gold pounds today, but he had to consider the possibility that Freya was not the supreme four pillars.
At 2 p.m., Freya returned to Woolde Street, and as soon as she entered, a maid came up to her and said, "Madame, someone is waiting for you in the study." ”
"Who?"
"It's His Royal Highness the Second Prince."
Freya frowned, pushed open the door of the study, and sure enough, she saw the second prince Shukry sitting in her place, fiddling with the astrometer on the table, and the Kore brothers sitting opposite, a cigar had been smoked to the bottom.
"Why are you here?" Freya walked into the room, closed the door, and asked, "Didn't you wait for news at home?" ”
"Because I'm in a hurry..."
The second prince smiled and said, "How is the situation?" Did he take 300,000 gold pounds? ”
"Accepted." Freya kicked the second prince up from his seat and sat down by herself: "Are you satisfied now?" ”
"Hmm...."
The second prince nodded with a smile:
"Just take it, Freya, you are so beautiful, how many men can not bow down under your skirt? If we hadn't known each other since childhood, the relationship would be the same as that of relatives, and I wouldn't be able to hold it, Nicholas doesn't accept you, forget it, if you don't want money anymore.... Scold. ”
