Chapter 489 Loan Agreement
The first meeting broke up unhappily. However, Jerome and Kasapa are not discouraged. In such a huge business negotiation, one point means a lot of money, and it is quite normal to go back and forth several times. So these men lived next door to Tipp, and in the days that followed, they traveled together and visited frequently, using the usual water milling technique.
Dip also did not give the order to drive them out. In fact, he also needs this loan. After the robbery of those bandits and the rumors from the outside world, Dipu already knew that because he was not secretive, so many rare materials and medicinal materials around him had been suspected by outsiders. If you take out a large number of magic cores and other magic materials and sell them, it will not be a disguised disclosure-have I found a new god ruin?
And with this loan, and the Burst Arrow and Temo's newly invented array disk, it is easy to hide the sudden wealth of the black eye collar. The outside world says that they are lucky at most, but they will not doubt it, but in fact, there is a greater source of wealth hidden behind it. In other words, it is to pay that huge amount of interest to buy a period of peace for the black eye.
Of course, although we are ready to borrow, we must also fight for baht. It can be cheaper, and no one's money is blown by the wind.
The quarrel was so red that he even almost pulled out his fist several times, coercing and luring...... After a few days of tossing, Dipu felt that his negotiation skills were improving rapidly. However, he still couldn't resist this group of cunning and cunning, and finally reached a "loan agreement".
Without going into details, the specific terms of the Loan Agreement were not detailed, and Dipp finally borrowed 310 million yuan, which was paid by the bank syndicate to all parties. The interest is reduced to 12%, and the principal is still paid off in ten years. In addition, the two sides have also signed a series of cooperation agreements.
There are more than a dozen of them, but there are three of the more important ones:
First, if the DPP started a war in the future, the banking group would set up a merchant group with the army and give priority to the acquisition of the spoils of the DPP. The period is set at fifty years;
Second, all economic activity in the territory after the Dipp. They can only cooperate with this bank syndicate on a priority basis. The term is thirty years;
Third, the bank syndicate will use its own connections to prioritize increasing financial resources and selling products for the territory of Dipu. Preliminary negotiations were: the sale of exploding arrows, the sale of magic items and magic potions, and military mercenary operations with more than 1,000 people no less than once a year. In fact, the bank group must pay attention to the first few points. And that last point is what Tipp is most concerned about. He was going to rotate his guards and iron guards to go out to fight and improve the combat effectiveness of his private army.
You know, when Dipu set out, the Orc Iron Guard, all the soldiers. There were more than 17,000 men, and the Guards, which were almost all soldiers, numbered more than 40,000. Although the standing army of Dipu's territory was not ready to be expanded, and only the number of 3,000 guards and 4,000 guards was guaranteed, this did not prevent him from taking turns to serve and go out to fight in turns, so as to achieve the effect of actual combat training.
And this period is tentatively set at 10 years.
In fact, when the two sides signed the agreement, they didn't care about the terms and thought they didn't matter much. The reason why the bank syndicate came up with those clauses is nothing more than an investment, which can be regarded as a ...... Optimistic about the future of Dipp. Of course. The banking group hinted to Dipp: The sunset is very large, should we occupy all the places? Of course, Dipu will not do those things that cost the people and money. That is...... Fooling the bank group to play with the purpose of suppressing the interest on the loan.
But no one thought that what kind of "monster" this agreement would give birth to in the future!
......
Exhausted to drive the profiteers away, Dipu and they were almost in the city of Svis. On the eve of entering the city, Dipu wrote two letters to his family. One is for Revina. I won't say much about the sweet words, the main content: three territories, or plus Edinburgh territory is four territories, will be combined to form a construction investment company. Mainly dams, windmills, etc. And in the future, each of them will protect these "cash cows" in their own territories. And the benefits will be distributed 6:2:2. The black-eyed collar and the redwood collar each account for 20%.
And this investment company will fully cooperate with the alchemy company of Temo, Briss and Dipu. Obtain the half-finished magic bricks produced as the income of the construction company. And Dipu their alchemy company. Because it was Mithril provided by Dip, after removing the cost, Dipp's Blackeye Collar would receive sixty percent of the Alchemy Company's revenue, and the rest would be divided equally between Temo and Bris.
In fact, Dipu just notified Revina and took the initiative to make the decision for Revina. He's already settled with Willy. And as soon as Willie heard that there was such a good thing as pie in the world, he hurriedly agreed to it. So Revina will definitely say yes.
The other is addressed to Lisa. Sweet words are also not spoken. And Dip also tenderly comforted several pieces of paper. Just went through the torture of these profiteers. Dipu can already imagine how much Lisa who remained in the black collar has suffered. To be honest, sluts are really good to their own women!
However, the focus of this letter is on some arrangements for his own territory:
The first is Magic Lake Island. Dip laid down the following principles: Dependent lords such as Viscount Gambit and Tiger Thrones such as Sweet Potato Udon were to be autonomous in their original territory. DPP does not charge any taxes.
But these people also have to fulfill two obligations: first, organize a census of all the children in the Sunset Plain, and all those who have magical talents will go to Dip. An additional 500 sturdy boys were provided each year to enter the Black-Eyed School for knightly apprenticeship. And all the cultivation costs are borne by the black-eyed collar;
2. These dependent territories paid for the supply of a thousand troops for Dip, and they were stationed in the Black-Eyed Territory and were under the command of the Black-Eyed Leader.
It should be said that this condition is quite lenient. Dipu didn't want to kill chickens and take eggs, so it was better to let them go about everything as usual if they spent any money, material and manpower on Magic Lake Island! Besides, if they have fewer obligations now, they will have the same responsibility in the future. In case the Demon Lake Island becomes a battlefield in the future, Dipu can completely leave it alone.
Within the territory, the military side is managed and trained by officers at all levels, and the internal affairs are decided by Lisa. But one thing is crucial, what do the "Queen Mother" Lorraine and Moss say to them? Dipu didn't reveal anything about the Forbidden Demon Ruins to Lisa, and Lorraine and Mosby would definitely make a move. In case of any conflict, it is still necessary to focus on the Forbidden Demon God Ruins.
As for the finances of the territory, with the loan just now, and the future Burst Arrow and Magic Brick industry, it is completely easy to make a surplus. However, Tipu still focused on admonishing: try to pay with magic bricks, and the more bursting arrows you store, the better!
Looking at the towering walls and familiar streets of Svis, Dipu was about to cry: "Labor and management are back!"
Entering the big city of humans for the first time, Howf, Jose, Sarris, and even Niro, Nelly, Albert, and others are all looking around excitedly. And Dipu patted his chest and was bold: "Wait for a while to settle down, go out with me, and I'll take all today's expenses!"
"Okay!"
Then, the crowd moved at great speed. However, Willie is going to visit the elders in the city, and some of them like to be free. So in the end, there were only thirty or so people who followed Dipu out of the inn door.
Along the way, everyone was full of interest and bought a lot of things. Niro and Nelly were tired of Dipp's side again, and everyone walked to the next place with a smile and a smile. Suddenly, a strong wind blew, and two young women holding small parasols on the side of the road were blown into the air with an umbrella in their hands.
"Whoosh-!" José was still sharp-eyed, and he jumped out first, grabbed the handle of the umbrella in the air, did a beautiful somersault, and then landed steadily in front of the two young women: "Beautiful young lady, it is an honor to help you." ”
"Shhh ”
Haofu rolled his eyes: "The taste is different." You know, you know, the woman I like, that's not the case. ”
Under the playful gaze of everyone, José bowed slightly and graciously handed the parasol to the young woman. The young woman, with her mouth slightly open, raised her right hand with white gauze gloves in surprise, and subconsciously went to pick up the umbrella.
José was even more personable: "Beautiful young lady, my name is José, and I am honored to meet you!" As he spoke, he took the young woman's right hand very easily, raised it to his lips, kissed it gently, and gave a kiss.
But before José could continue, he heard a scream: "Ahhh
José was stunned. Because the family has been living together, they rarely care about the difference of race. Therefore, José thought that he was not familiar with the etiquette here, so he frowned and turned his head, and asked Dipu suspiciously: "Is it not possible to kiss hands casually here?"
However, why didn't Tipu understand the reason? Proper racial discrimination! With the entry into the interior of the human race, people of other races became more and more rare, and the dwarves and fairies who lived in the human race were fine, but as long as they saw orcs, unless they were beautiful and moving like fox girls and swan girls, many people regarded them as flood beasts. If you have to blame, it's Jose who has a donkey face! )
