Chapter 39: Warning from the Northland Bank
When Lin Ye arrived, the people from the Northland Bank had just come out of Lin Xiaofeng's room.
It seems that there is no negotiation, the manager Andre's expression is dark, and when he looks up and sees Lin Ye, he recognizes him as the son of the Duke of An, although he is broken.
Andre wanted to say hello and show kindness, but he saw seven or eight guards behind Lin Ye, each holding a club.
The point is that there is also an old man, who also has a big stick.
Don't underestimate Lin Bo, when he was young, he also roamed the rivers and lakes, was chased and killed by the enemy once, and was later rescued by Lin Ye's grandfather.
"Forehead ......"
Obviously, last time, it wasn't like this......
Andrei, in good faith, came alone, he was just a clergyman.
In terms of the combat effectiveness of the Northland Bank, there are debt collectors and executive officers [Childe] Lord.
Lin Ye also saw Andre, because he was an NPC in the game, Lin Ye was guilty of face blindness and didn't recognize who he was, but looking at his appearance, he didn't look like an ordinary employee.
Unlike Andrei, who was stunned, Lin Ye showed his demeanor when he was helpful in Ozan Mountain, and behind him stood the brother who copied the guy, smiling at Andre with what he thought was kind
"Hello, my name is Lin Ye, I don't know if you are, sir?" Lin Ye was very polite.
“…… Young Master Lin Ye has never seen me, so let me introduce myself. Andrey, currently holds the position of Manager of Northland Bank. ”
"Mr. Andre, I wonder why the Northland Bank is here?" Lin Ye asked gently.
"Oh, it's just a business discussion with Ling Zun...... There is an old saying in Liyue that harmony makes money. ”
Andre was the manager, the biggest worker at the Northland Bank, and he quickly regained his composure.
At this time, Gong An came out of the room, saw Lin Bo's battle, cried and laughed, and pretended to scold, "Go!" Don't be embarrassed here, lest it be spread that our Lin Mansion has lost hospitality. ”
"Yes, yes, yes." Andrei agreed.
"Gong An, it's not too early, say goodbye. Northland Bank is very sincere, and I hope you will consider it again and look forward to your change of heart. ”
Lin Xiaofeng nodded and didn't say anything.
After Andre left, Lin Xiaofeng glanced at Lin Ye, and then put his gaze on Lin Bo's face, who laughed for a while.
Shaking his head helplessly, Lin Xiaofeng returned to the room.
Lin Ye thought about it and followed.
The rest of Lin Bo saw that the matter was over, and hurried his subordinates to do what they should do.
Lin Xiaofeng sat on the chair on the right and motioned for Lin Ye to sit on the chair on the left.
"If there's anything you want to ask, Aye, just ask." Lin Xiaofeng picked up the account book, turned a few pages, and spoke.
"What is the purpose of Northland Bank's visit this time?" Lin Ye asked bluntly.
"Cooperation." Lin Xiaofeng said calmly.
Changhong Qianzhuang has been operating for a long time, and the industry is not only the business of Qianzhuang, but also involved in various industries, and also has shares in Heyu Teahouse, Yanshang Teahouse, Toon Kiln, Wanwen Collection House and other places. Even as far away as Mondstadt, there are several estates under its umbrella.
After entering Liyue Harbor, Northland Bank used its abundant capital to suppress and annex a large number of small banks, and at the same time, it also actively bought shares in other shops in Liyue Harbor in an effort to become the largest shareholder.
This is bound to fall into a mortal enemy situation with Changhong Qianzhuang.
In fact, after gaining a firm foothold, the biggest challenge faced by Northland Bank was Changhong Qianzhuang.
At first, with a better system and management methods, Beiguo Bank had an advantage in the competition with Changhong Money Bank for many times.
However, a sentence of following the trend can exhaust Lin Xiaofeng's biggest concept of running a money bank.
When Northland Bank first settled in Liyue, Lin Xiaofeng was keenly aware of the devastating impact the Bank's operation had on Liyue's finances.
As the oldest money bank, under the management of Lin Xiaofeng, he washed away the decadence and rigidity of the past, humbly learned the system from the Northland Bank, and at the same time retained the advantages of the bank's operation.
Because Lin Xiaofeng is nostalgic, the name of Changhong Qianzhuang is retained.
So, when one of the largest local snakes has the same advanced business methods as you, the winner is clear.
In terms of word of mouth, Changhong Qianzhuang has a long history and is well-known in Liyue Harbor. In terms of capital, this is Liyue, not the Solstice Country, and the Northland Bank is really just as tough as Changhong Qianzhuang.
Northland Bank is deflated at every turn.
It's a pity that there are very few people like Lin Xiaofeng who are open, like De'an Gong, who is more stubborn, mismanaged, and finally broke down when he encountered bad things.
Therefore, the business of Northland Bank is still thriving, but there is always a strong dragon on its head.
Lin Xiaofeng sighed and continued.
"They have given up on the idea of acquisition, and intend to achieve a win-win situation, and with the help of Changhong Bank's qualifications and the means of the Northland Bank, they will annex the entire Liyue Harbor Bank, and then the local people and merchants will put Mora with us, and the two of us will completely control the business of Liyue Harbor."
"Of course, the two have their own subdivisions of specific affairs, so let's not talk about these for the time being." Lin Xiaofeng knew that Lin Ye didn't understand this, so he didn't elaborate.
In the past, Lin Xiaofeng listened to Mu Xiaojin's words and let Lin Ye freely choose what he was interested in to do.
Lin Ye was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and blurted out a sentence.
"Monopoly?"
"Monopoly, that's a very apt word." Lin Xiaofeng nodded and said approvingly.
“…… So do you promise? ”
Lin Xiaofeng stood up with his hands behind his back, turned his back to Lin Ye, and said disdainfully, "My person, Aye, don't you know?" This kind of road to cut off people and no way can never be done. ”
"Changhong Money House has been at the top of Liyue Harbor over the years, and even so, there are still a few money banks that can join forces to compete with us."
"Is it because I can't handle it? Wrong! I just remember the family motto left by my ancestors: if it is full, it will be lost, and the water will flow for a long time. No matter when, leave a line in doing things, and the same is true for doing business. ”
"It's ridiculous, even if you make a lot of money at that time, your reputation and signboard have been smashed."
"Besides, he's an outsider, so why should I help him? The Jade Pavilion was still floating in the sky, and the Heavenly Power Star would not allow it. ”
Lin Xiaofeng shook his head, and then looked at Lin Ye with a cautious and suspicious expression.
"Never underestimate your enemies. I've had a lot of secret battles with Northland Bank over the years. Although he has fewer wins and more defeats, he still cannot be underestimated, and there are still some means. ”
"The cooperation proposed by Andre of Northland Bank seems to be a win-win situation, but people who have a little sense of the overall situation will think that it is inappropriate. Northland Bank is not so stupid, I am afraid there is something else to hide. ”
"I'm worried about what the Northland Bank is planning to do, and wants to launch the Changhong Money Village."
"The Northland Bank is a bank on the surface, secretly lending usury, as far as I know, those who do not repay their debts will be called debt collectors to collect debts, and the methods are cruel, and from time to time people disappear, and the Millelith Army cannot find a trace. Northland Bank is more than just a bank. ”
"It is rumored that the [Childe] of the Foolish Executive of the Winter Kingdom is operating in the Northland Bank, and I have not seen this person yet."
Lin Xiaofeng was worried that it would involve the Fatui executives, and it would not be just a business war at that time.
When Lin Ye heard this, he was also thinking about what the Northland Bank was doing.
In Liyue's Demon God mission, Childe uses the Hundred Taboo Urn to awaken the Demon God Othello and flood Liyue.
At this time, did the brother control and the battle maniac Tartaglia get a hundred taboo urns?
"Aye, you don't have to take these things to heart, I will take care of them, you can recuperate with peace of mind...... Next time, don't put yourself in danger, your own safety is the most important thing. Lin Xiaofeng said.
“…… Well. ”
After Lin Ye left, Lin Xiaofeng sat on a chair and closed his eyes to recuperate, thinking about the purpose of the Northland Bank.
After all, doing business is for profit.
Lin Xiaofeng thought that Beiguo Bank wanted to borrow Changhong Money Village as a shield to resist the accountability of Tianquan Xing, and he thought about setting a trap on the contract to yin him.
Lin Xiaofeng has the confidence to deal with these things.
Because of this, Lin Xiaofeng wondered what the purpose of Northland Bank was.
Andre came here to talk about cooperation, thinking of the style and rumors of Northland Bank, Lin Xiaofeng felt that it was a warning.
Put civilization on the table to talk about business, and after tearing your face, you have to use force.
Northland Bank must be looking for something from Changhong Qianzhuang, Lin Xiaofeng initially thought it was the entire industry, but now he felt more and more that Northland Bank was for a higher level of organizational action.
What do they want?
After a long time, Lin Xiaofeng opened his eyes and rubbed his temples, revealing a lonely expression.
Although Xiao Jin doesn't understand business things like Lin Ye, every time Lin Xiaofeng is worried, Xiao Jin will massage his temples and cheer him up.
Now, she's gone.
Lin Xiaofeng stood up with a resolute expression.
Anyway, the soldiers will come to block it, and the water will cover it.
…………
Tianheng Mountain, deep in the cave.
"Oh, it's alive." Yixiao guided the innocent monarch to take a breath of immortal breath and said comfortably.
Xiao was expressionless and asked.
"How's your doing?"
