Chapter 537 Monthly Profit 3 Points (Please Subscribe!!!)

"You want to borrow money?"

In Villa 17, Regent's Park, Arthur's arm holding the wine glass shook, and he looked at Mavi and Junia who suddenly came to visit in shock.

In addition to Arthur, there was also a newly hired old housekeeper, Colliford, in the room—this is what Gawain looked like after his disguise.

"Didn't you just raise a large sum of money?" Arthur asked in confusion, "Why do you still need to borrow money?"

The news of the private investment conference held at Kensington Palace at noon had already spread like wildfire. The second prince himself didn't think that these bank staff could keep the secrets.

The eldest prince received the news, and Arthur also received it, so he was confused by Mavi's move to borrow money.

It is no exaggeration to say that Ma Wei, who has 770 million gold pounds and still has liquid funds, can be ranked in the top ten even if he is not the richest man in London. There are too many people.

With so much money, there is no problem at all in London, so why do you want to borrow money?
"Manstein Potions Company will go public next Monday." Mavie, who knew that Arthur had obtained the news, did not hide anything: "I am afraid that someone will interfere with it, so we must prepare enough funds and recover the equity in case just in case."

"But in this way, the liquidity in your hands, Father, will be reduced!" Arthur frowned. "If you don't have enough liquidity, what should you do with the bidding? I heard that the third prince Andrew has prepared tens of millions of gold pounds!"

Even if all the private property of the third prince Andrew was mortgaged to the bank, he would not be able to raise tens of millions of gold pounds. He must have embezzled military funds for this money. Everyone knew it in their hearts, but there was nothing they could do about it.

Report him?
It will probably be a few months after the investigation is over. By then, the third prince Andrew has already made up for the misappropriation. What crime can he be convicted of?

"That's why I came to ask you to borrow money." Ma Wei said: "The eldest prince and the third prince will prepare a lot of money. I need more here. Only in this way can I overwhelm them. Your Highness, you live in New Ross City." After so long, don’t you have any money?”

"I have never used my position to make money."

Arthur took a sip of whiskey and asked, "But the Knights of the Round Table should be able to come up with some funds. How much do you want to borrow?"

"How much can you take out?"

".You want to borrow them all?"

"The more the better."

Hearing that, Arthur felt a little headache. He knocked on his forehead, pondered for a long time, then turned to look at the butler Collyford, that is, Gawain: "How much cash can you come up with?"

"The last batch of projects has just finished, and the government's construction funds will be settled in the next two days, which is almost 150 million pounds." Gao Wen said: "But these funds are the salaries of the workers and the final payment of the steel factories and gravel factories of all parties. , and dividends from other shareholders.”

"So how much can you take out?"

"170 million, including my own personal account." Gao Wen said expressionlessly, "I can postpone the settlement of the payments from all parties, but the time should not be too long. Workers will riot if they don't receive their wages for a long time."

170 million, Gao Wen alone gave out cash comparable to that of several nobles.

Is he richer than these old London nobles?
Not always.
In fact, Ma Wei knew in his heart that neither the second prince nor Smith or the nobles had done their best, and they had hidden a lot of mortgageable assets.

Specifically why.
Who knows?

It is a normal thought of many people to keep one hand in everything, but according to the current situation.
Ma Wei suspects that the second prince is preparing for the listing next Monday.

On the other hand, on Arthur's side, he really took out his old bottom. The 170 million pounds is the lifeblood of Benjamin Construction Company. Once Mavi doesn't pay back the money, Benjamin Construction Company will face bankruptcy.

"Besides Gawain, the other knights should be able to scrape together a lot of money. I need to inform them and ask them to lend you all the cash without pledging their assets."

Arthur looked into Mavi's eyes: "Father, although we are an unbreakable alliance, I need to get some rewards for them for such a high-risk matter."

There is no free lunch in the world, let alone money borrowed for free. No matter how solid the alliance relationship is, we must communicate with each other.

Even if Arthur didn't mention it, Mavi would compensate the Knights of the Round Table.

"I'll write them an IOU with a monthly profit of 3 cents, how about it?"

The monthly interest is 3 cents, which refers to the monthly interest of 3%, and on this basis, the rolling interest, excluding additional interest, is 36% interest a year.

That is to say, if Ma Wei borrowed 100 million pounds and repaid it after one year, on the basis of the principal of 100 million, he would have to repay an additional 36 pounds plus the interest of rolling interest.

The normal bank interest rate is 12% per year and 3 cents per month, which already belongs to the category of usury.

Ma Wei used the Church of Truth as a guarantee, and behind it was the Kingdom of Romanov. He would definitely not tamper with this kind of thing, and his reputation was guaranteed. How could a pope not pay back the money?

"Actually, I originally wanted shares in the Potion Company." Arthur smiled: "We only need 1% of the shares."

The funds that Arthur could raise for Ma Wei far exceeded 200 million gold pounds. After all, Guang Gaowen alone contributed 170 million. Could it be that the rest of the Knights of the Round Table couldn't even get 30?
This is obviously impossible.

1% of the equity, according to the company's valuation of 2000 million, is exactly 20 gold pounds. Arthur does not want interest, but only wants 20 gold pounds worth of equity.

but
This 1% stake will cost more than 20 gold pounds after listing.

"Let's calculate it according to the interest rate." Ma Wei said, "It's easier this way. If you get the interest, you can also buy 1% of the shares, Your Highness. The result is the same, isn't it?"

"Well, then follow your proposal, Father."

Arthur asked Gao Wen to draft an IOU. After confirming that it was correct, Ma Wei signed his name on it and pressed his fingerprint. This is only in the range of 170 million gold pounds. The rest of the funds will be signed after the funds are raised. IOU is not too late.

"I will do it as soon as possible. Before next Monday, I must send the money to the priest."

"Okay, then let's say goodbye."

Putting on the hat, Mavi picked up Junia, activated the mud shadow magic, and left the villa.

After they left, Gao Wen asked, "Your Highness, don't you plan to acquire some shares in the Manstein Potion Company?"

"I did think so at the beginning." Arthur stared at the burnt charcoal in the fireplace, and said quietly: "But compared to equity, I value the alliance with Father Mawei more, and it's not worth it to arouse his suspicion for a little immediate benefit. .”

"Father Mawei did all these things to push me to the throne, and I still made trouble for him behind his back. It really can't be justified."

"He is not only for Your Highness, but also for himself, for the Church of Truth." Gao Wen said.

"That's right, but didn't he write an IOU and pay interest?" Arthur picked up the IOU on the table and looked at the writing on it through the firelight: "With the guarantee of the Church of Truth, the money will definitely be repaid. In this At the critical point, we have to wear a pair of pants with the priest, dragging our feet. Not my Arthur style!"

At 9 o'clock in the evening, No. 27 Flower Street, potion grocery store.

"Brother, isn't 3 points too high?"

Hearing that Mavi wrote an IOU to Arthur with a monthly interest of 3 cents, Daniel was a little uneasy, "Tell me if you are short of money! I will write to my mother, and she will definitely be able to come up with a lot of money! Why send it? Give the money to someone else!"

"First of all, it will be listed next Monday. It is too late for you to write to your family now. Secondly, Arthur is not an outsider." Mavie put the kettle on the stove and prepared to make tea: "Besides, if I ask Fate Even if King William V lends money to me, he will definitely ask for a reward, Daniel, if you don’t want it, it doesn’t mean your father doesn’t want it either.”

"I know what you're thinking, brother."

Levin, who was waiting for supper, suddenly said: "3 cents a month, sounds like a lot, but that's the price after rolling interest. If we pay back the money within a month, the interest rate will only be 3%. Not much money."

"A month?" Daniel was taken aback for a moment: "Am I making millions of gold pounds a month? Isn't this a dream?"

"It's not a dream."

Ma Wei narrowed his eyes and said word by word:
"As long as we can win the bidding and start international trade, the monthly profit dividend alone will be more than a few million pounds."
