Chapter 546 543.family rivalry
"If it weren't for our Fiat family's well-run magister workshop and the concerted efforts of members of our family in various departments of the fund, the fund would have been unable to continue operating, and the entire Benma family would not be able to maintain the current prosperity. And If you continue to draw manpower from the executive committee and secretariat of the fund, and apply for a withdrawal of 10 gold coins, I am afraid that the Galloping Horse Fund will really shut down!"

Rand has been listening to Jenny Benma introduce their family's situation, and has never interrupted. Combined with the situation that Little Cardinal, Ben Kaur, and Sherman said intermittently, they can roughly correspond to each other.

The Fiat family's ability to become the leader of the Galloping Horse family must not only rely on blood or territorial advantages. When the Emperor's War in 725 ended, their high-ranking family was wiped out in the war like most of the middle-ranking families. Their family only It just escaped the war against the orcs in the Galloping Horse Plain.

However, the ancestors of the Fiat family used their keen business acumen to seize the two flagship products of hydrotherapy scrolls and magic algae, and invested in the earliest batch of post-war industries by relying on the gold coins hidden and robbed on various islands. , Established more than a dozen magic workshops in one fell swoop.

Rant waited for Jenny to finish speaking, and then said slowly: "The funds I applied for from the Galloping Horse Fund are all for business."

Hearing what Rand said, Jenny nodded and said, "I don't mean any disrespect to you, but the Benma Fund can't afford 10 gold coins now."

Rand waved his hand, "It's okay, I don't need that little money anymore, you can keep that fund for yourself, all mages in Yeqi City will be paid by Yeqi City for potions and money from next month. wages"

According to the news from the Temple of Wealth, within this month, Rand will install magic furnaces in several city-states of Hindukel, and Red Dragon Rock will provide 1500 million gold coins in cash.Now that there is direct funding from the central bank, the rand does not need financing.

"What?" Jenny was a little caught off guard. She thought that Rand would bargain with her, but after crying poorly, she agreed to let her father raise money and take the opportunity to negotiate terms.

In fact, there are still some gold coins in the family that can be withdrawn. If Rand is particularly short of money, Fiat can invest in Rand’s magic workshop, but the subsequent share and conditions will follow. , 1/5 of them are controlled by the Fiat family. In terms of quota, their family's appetite is not much smaller than that of the Pure Tower.

However, Rand's attitude was too unrestrained, and Jenny was a little uncertain, so she could only ask tentatively: "My lord, you can't really mortgage the treasures in the Padmira Palace and borrow money from the Tower of Purity, right? "

"I can't care about Honglongyan borrowing money?"

Rand replied with a smile, but seeing that Jenny's complexion didn't improve, he had to say again: "Now Yeqi City also has some output, you can see magic pattern amber, skin cream, etc., so some people are willing to Investing in my magic workshop, my current funding gap has basically eased."

"So that's it, I really congratulate you." Jenny said so, but she didn't believe it at all in her heart. It's not an exaggeration for Lante's leader to say that it's a waste of time, and now he's at war with the orcs. A gold-swallowing beast, how many gold coins does it have to give, and what kind of special products are produced to dare to say that it is not short of money?

"Also, regarding what you just said, I must remind you." Before Jenny could speak, Rand said with a serious expression: "According to the report of the Imperial Finance Office, the reason why your magic workshop's annual revenue is 70 More than [-] gold coins is entirely because [-]% of the orders are purchased by the Department of Finance, and [-]% of the magic materials are purchased from the internal price of the Yantie Division. If there is no raw material and market from the imperial department, the Fiat family and even the entire Benma family are now It's just an ordinary magister family."

Rand is very familiar with the relationship between the empire and Fiat's workshops. The so-called workshops that their family encourages to maintain are not the state-owned enterprises of the human empire, but the top name of these state-owned enterprises is the Benma Foundation.You have created such a large profit from running a state-owned enterprise, so what is there to say if part of it is turned over to the state treasury?

"This..." Jenny was completely speechless by Rant. She always listened to her father say how much benefit she had created for the empire and how many magic products she had supplied, but she never thought about her own workshop. How much policy support has been received.

"Master Jenny, I guess the purpose of your visit this time is to hope that our two families can continue to cooperate in the future. I can discuss with the ancestors of Halkala a principle of accepting members of the Benma family. Families who have sacrificed and contributed to Ma Pingyuan and Yeqi City will definitely be able to live in Yeqi City."

Rand didn't go on, but another meaning of these words is that the Fiat family shouldn't just come here to make a fortune by relying on their status in the world.

Jenny was silent for a long time, her eyes were fixed on Rand, and she didn't understand any accommodating meaning from his smiling expression. After a long time, she said: "Okay, I understand, thank you Earl."

Looking at the girl's appearance, Rand knew that he had met all expectations, so he said, "Master Jenny can stay here for two more days, if you are interested, you can also go to Yeqi City, I will talk to Yawenni The leader made it clear that you don't need to be under her management in Yeqi City."

Rand said a few more words with a smile, and left the room, leaving only Jenny drinking the fine wine she just poured.

"Now, I'm afraid the family's good times are really coming to an end," Jenny shook her head, recalling the whole process of meeting Rand just now.

It took less than an hour from when Rand met her to when the two separated, and there was a considerable amount of time in which they were still admiring each other's gifts. However, Rand did not accuse the Fiat family of controlling the fund during the whole process, and did not say that their family and the Beast King They are not even interested in how many gold coins their family can come up with.This situation either means that Rand doesn't know anything about the rumors of the Fiat family, or it means that he has already learned too much and is not interested in this information at all.

The truth obviously belongs to the latter. After all, Rand even revealed the orders and raw materials of the Fiat workshop. However, why is this Rand so indifferent to the strength of the Fiat family? have no idea.

The opponent's strength is unfathomable, but her own strength is well known. Jenny is extremely dissatisfied with the current state, but there is nothing she can do.
