Chapter 330 329. The banker who is greedy for petty gains
Lan En felt quite fresh when he signed. This was the first time he signed a formal contract, and after the signing was completed, he suddenly became a Shareholders in commodity trading.
When the three people signed the contract in duplicate, the crowd in front of the bank door suddenly burst into loud cheers.
Immediately afterwards, Lan En and the other two symbolically raised the signed contract to show it to the outside, and then they could leave.
This is just a signing meeting announced to the public. These businessmen really want to confirm the performance and commercial value of Valyrian steel. Aretuza College will arrange a special visit schedule for them.
Because of the existence of magic, a productivity that transcends the times, the business model of this world is much more advanced than the world without magic at the same time.
Lane returned to Aretuosa with Margarita and Siloton.
As an operations manager, Silerton came to pay his first door-to-door visit to the shareholders he will serve in the future.
His status was different from Lan En's, and he was not qualified to enter the upper echelon of Arethusa College, so this meeting was limited to the Rosha Palace on the first floor.
This is not a shame. After all, in the past, even those who received envoys from kings of various countries would have their heads above the sky on this level.
It was also the first time for Sileden to come to this world-renowned magic academy, and he expressed a suitable degree of shock and admiration.
“Oh, Arethusa, Arethusa, this pearl made of magic.”
The dwarf sighed loudly in an aria-like tone.
Margarita, as the host, showed her understanding and approval.
If these words were spoken from a human mouth, it would make people feel exaggerated. However, most of the impressions given by dwarves are very emotional, so when these exaggerated words came out of the dwarf's mouth, it made people feel that they were sincere.
Magic is undoubtedly the high-end productivity in this world, and the magic usage rate in Arethusa College is also undoubtedly the top in the world.
The lighting fixtures scattered throughout the corridor are amazing enough in this era.
After all, in Lian Foltest's palace, people still have to light a candle with a candlestick at night when convenient.
In Aretusa, even if the buildings are complicated and tortuous, and the decorations are gorgeous and complicated, none of these factors can affect the indoor light.
Sufficient and long-lasting light source is a symbol of wealth and ability in this era.
But Lan En could still feel that the dwarf was not as shocked as he showed.
The facial muscles and bone structure of dwarves are very different from humans.
In the memory of the gene-seed, the Emperor's Children could easily arouse the emotions of thousands of spectators in public. They were very good at discerning people's subtle emotions hidden behind their numb faces.
In Lan En's observation, the dwarf banker was indeed impressed, but it was far from being shocked.
It seems that even dwarves, who are known for their straightforward temper and fiery temper, will naturally become 'adapted' after becoming a qualified banker and living in human countries for a long time.
Lan En doesn't hate this kind of behavior, because it means that Schillerton cares about the feelings of shareholders and is willing to expend energy to let his emotional intelligence come into play.
“.My current market plan is this. We should ship a small amount first, entrust famous craftsmen to create a batch of powerful swords and armors with Valyrian steel, and then arm them with high-quality products. We put the categories in various auction houses and make a name for ourselves because the output the college can produce is really not that large. We cannot use mass distribution to market and impact the market, so we can only take the high-end publicity route. . ”
“Nobles and big businessmen are all good at discerning goods. When they realize that these fine weapons are just fine craftsmanship, but the basic performance is all supported by the steel itself, they work for business opportunities and for themselves. When the armed forces here are upgraded, they will naturally start to contact us." Siledon explained to the two laymen naturally and skillfully.
This is not the first time he has been an operations manager. In his young life of nearly a hundred years old, he has successfully operated four operations with the resources of the Giancardi family. Five trading houses, one of which even has a head office in Novigrad.
He was well aware of the potential and prospects of Valyrian steel. He planned to treat this industry as his lifelong industry, so he prepared for a long time in advance.
Lan En and Margarita nodded repeatedly.
Sileden happily took a sip of the black tea on the table while putting the gifts given to the guests by Arethusa into his pocket.
It is a small pendant-style amulet. It is of little use. It is used to slightly enhance immunity. It can probably ward off seasonal colds.
Although it is not cheap outside the academy, within the academy, most of the trial works of apprentices in enchantment and alchemy courses will be placed here.
Therefore, a lot of these things were prepared in the living room, and they were put into exquisite glass boxes. Small cashmere pillows were padded inside, and they were placed on the table, making it clear that they were small gifts.
"The general idea is this. Our products are unique and far exceed the average level of products on the market today. So there is no need for those too troublesome intrigues. Publicity, as long as it is publicized, there will be no need to worry about no one. Come to purchase goods. All the early strategies are for publicity.”
The conversation ends quickly, and this is usually the case for meetings between shareholders and managers.
The manager explains the business philosophy and specific direction. The shareholders think it is feasible, and then it is implemented. With regular reporting and regular audits, a force with a long history like Aretusa naturally has its own financial team.
After Sileden shook hands with Margarita and Lan En enthusiastically and said goodbye, he couldn't wait to leave the academy and show off his talents in the mall.
Seeing the back of the red-bearded dwarf, who was in high spirits and seemed ready to fight at any time, Lan En touched his chin.
"This guy seems to have taken several small gifts just now. After all, he is in charge of a big bank, and he is habitually taking advantage of small things?"
After the outsiders left, Margarita The dignity and seriousness that he had maintained suddenly collapsed.
She waved her hand, and the illusion on Lan En was canceled.
She came closer and slid her fingertips ambiguously on the outline of Lan En's armor while speaking casually.
"It must be a quirk, right? The sequelae of overeating are often experienced by nobles and businessmen. I also heard that there is a director of a large chamber of commerce in Novigrad who often steals things, although those things combined are not as much as those of his errand boys. A meal costs a lot, but he just likes it.”
“But Siloton is usually very generous. Before the business is settled, He took the initiative to raise the interest rate on our account."
"Okay, I don't understand this quirk."
Lan En glanced at the post. He reached the sorceress next to him, then put a finger on her tender cheek and pushed outwards.
"Can you calm down for a while? I've been out for a long time. Can we deal with the backlog of things at once before talking about anything else?"
"How do I feel that you are the one whose hormone secretion was modified by the Trial of Green Grass?"
