Chapter 313 A Satisfactory Contract

Gonzalo froze on the spot.

"Get out, Gonzalo."

It wasn't until President Qiao Dewen intensified his tone and gave Gonzalo the order to go out again that Gonzalo stood up in a daze, bowed to his "teacher", Luo Xiu and Intis, and resigned.

Afterwards, as ordered by Jordan, Gonzalo exited the room and gently closed the door.

"You are indeed no ordinary person, Mr. Waiter." Intis smiled, and she stood up, lightly lifted her skirt, and bowed elegantly to President Qiao Devin.

"I wish you a pleasant conversation with your brother, Mr. President."

She first said to Qiao Dewen in a clear voice, then turned to Luo Xiu, and her voice became gentle:

"Please allow me to evade, brother. I will wait for you outside."

After saying that, Intis followed Gonzalo out of the room and gently closed the door again.

……

When only Luo Xiu and President Qiao Dewen were left in Gonzalo's office, Luo Xiu leaned back, swung the wine glass in his hand, and said:

"There are only two of us now, dear Mr. 'President'."

"We can communicate candidly about my proposal, the direction of our future cooperation, and... some other things."

While saying this, Luo Xiu still had a friendly, harmless smile on his face, but from Qiao Devin's point of view, he felt more and more dangerous.

But Qiao Devin is the "president" after all - he has seen more dangerous scenes, and this current situation can only be regarded as one of the "dangers" he has been in.

Opposite to the smile on Luo Xiu's face, Qiao Devin also had a smile on his clean face and sat down where Gonzalo was.

"Oh..." Qiao Devin said with a smile, "Please believe me, Your Excellency the Bishop. I have always regarded you as my most important friend, no matter you are a 'businessman' or a 'bishop'."

"Of course I believe you, Mr. President." Luo Xiu raised his wine glass and took a sip of the red wine in the glass. His deep eyes fell on Qiao Devin's face and said:

"But the 'deal' is always fair, right? If Mr. Gonzalo hadn't mentioned the 'Bishop of Red Maple City' Rossio Carlos, I really wouldn't have the heart to call out your name."

"After all, keeping the 'mysterious' color is safer for both parties. But since Mr. Gonzalo has doubted my identity, I think I should also throw in some of my chips?"
< br>

"..."

"Of course, throwing chips is the freedom of a businessman." Qiao Devin responded with a smile, "I'm sorry, Your Excellency. My student's curiosity has brought you a bad experience."

"Okay, Mr. Qiao Devin." Luo Xiu smiled, put the glass of wine in his hand back on the table, and said, "I just think that this is just Mr. Gonzalo's 'curiosity'."< br>


After saying this, he suddenly sat up straight, brought his face very close to Qiao Devin's face, and said softly, word by word:

"You are the 'False Face of Delusion' of the fifth destiny of [Nothingness], right, Mr. Qiao Devin?"

"If I guess correctly, Mr. Qiao Devin. You should be one of the 'original masks' in the 'Mourning Song Mask'?"

"...?"

Qiao Devin's pupils suddenly shrank when he heard Luo Xiu reveal his secret in a very small voice.

Luo Xiu's understanding of his details exceeded Qiao Devin's expectations.

He did not expect that Luo Xiulian had such a deep grasp of the details, not only his identity as the president of the "Bank of Gold", but also his destiny, career, and even the creation of "The Void". The secret organizations were all clearly investigated by Luo Xiu!

What else does he know...? This was Qiao Devin's first thought.

Of course, what he doesn't know is that Luo Xiu has such a thing as a "panel" - his fate and extraordinary career were exposed by the "panel". As for the latter, it is purely some memories of Luo Xiu's previous life and his feelings about him. Investigation and speculation.

Seeing Qiao Devin's reaction, Luo Xiu knew that his "guess" about him was confirmed to be true... If Qiao Devin had nothing to do with the "Mourning Mask", as a bishop, Luo Xiu didn't mind calling a deer a horse.

He was even prepared for this.

But that's not necessary now.

"I..." Just as Qiao Devin was about to say something, Luo Xiu interrupted him and said:

"You don't need to explain anything to me, Mr. President. The reason why I tell you this is just based on the principle of equal chips in 'trading', and there is no malicious intent."

"Please don't be afraid, Mr. Qiao Devin. I know that you are a citizen of the Golden Kingdom. You have become a believer in [Nothingness] in the Golden Kingdom. This does not violate the imperial decree."

This is appeasement to Qiao Devin.

But Luo Xiu then changed the topic and said:

"But, about the 'Mourning Mask'... you should know, Mr. Qiao Devin."

"That is an illegal hidden organization in the empire, and I, as the 'bishop', have the power and responsibility to judge them."

The secret organization called "Mourning Song Mask" - in the Holy Court's definition of it, it seems to be seeking traces of the "World-Eating Snake", the Pillar God of [Nothingness], that has existed in the mortal world. It consists of many four, An organization established by followers of the Fivefold Destiny of [Nothingness].

But as the traces of the "World-Eating Snake" become increasingly elusive, the "Mourning Song Mask" gradually deviates from its original purpose. Believers gradually believe that they should do something to win the pillar god "The World-Eating Snake" attention - they then created chaos in various cities or towns, carrying out "meaningless" activities that were completely illogical, but had a huge impact and seriously disrupted the normal order, in an attempt to gain a glance from the god.

It is unknown whether they sought a glimpse of the "World-Eating Snake", but their rampant activities were jointly classified as a cult by the Department of Justice, the Holy Court, and the Tower of Sage.

"..."

"...I am indeed one of the founders of 'Mourning Mask', but subsequent members have deviated from our original intention of creating it, and I have quit."

Qiao Devin sighed, looked at Luo Xiu, and asked:

"What do you want me to do, Your Excellency?"

Visibly, Qiao Devin's attitude became more cautious and respectful.

This is the result after Luo Xiu throws the "chip" - each side shows its true identity in the extraordinary world, and the balance of the negotiation has now tilted towards Luo Xiu's side.

Qiao Devin has fully understood what Luo Xiu meant - he is the "bishop" of the Holy Court, and whether he adopts "judgment" or "cooperation" with Qiao Devin will completely depend on Qiao Devin's attitude.

This is a naked threat, but Qiao Devin must bear this threat.

"Let's go back to the original proposal, Mr. Chaudwin."

Looking at Qiao Devin, Luo Xiu said:

"About what I said at the beginning - the investments I plan to make, the chamber of commerce I want to establish, and the 5% stake in the Songyuan City-El Dorado Bank I hope to get." "And now, there are more things I want. One item - President Qiao Dewen, maybe at some point, I need you, as a believer in [Nihility], to do something for me.”

"I will promote the cooperation between the church and you, provide you with some information that only I know, and fight for your interests in Red Maple City within the scope of my authority. This is enough to be equivalent to the price I ask for."


"What about it, President Qiao Devin? You can think about it carefully."

"..."

"You have said so... Mr. Luo Xiu, I think the process of 'negotiation' is no longer necessary."

Qiao Devin smiled helplessly, and then said:

"Okay, I can promise you. You have indeed grasped my weakness, and this is what a 'businessman' needs to bear."

"I am a believer in [Nothingness] and I am the original mask of the 'Mourning Song Mask'. I hope you can help me keep it a secret. This is my only hope for you."

"I am honored that you will be of use to me... As long as you come to the bank, if there is anything I can accomplish within my ability, I will do my best to help you."

After saying this first, Qiao Dewen sighed and said:

"As for your cooperation with the bank..."

"The Bank of El Dorado will help you make the best investment plan in the chosen field; and the chamber of commerce you want to establish will help you raise funds in my name and hire the best financiers to operate it for you."

"And what you want, 5% of the shares of the Bank of El Dorado... To be honest, I am really embarrassed. Just like Gonzalo said, if we follow the normal process, we really need to convene more than half of the shareholders' meeting in order to Decide on this.”

"However, I still promise you to transfer the 5% shares I hold in Songyuan City-El Dorado Bank to your name."

"..."

"It's been a pleasure talking to you, Mr. Jodevon."

After Qiao Dewen agreed to Luo Xiu's series of requests, Luo Xiu nodded with a smile.

Luo Xiu knew that Qiao Dewen, as the "president", held 40% of the shares in Songyuan City-El Dorado Bank.

As a banker, he is willing to transfer 5% of his shares. If you include the equity assets he invests in other fields, it is equivalent to giving Luo Xiu about one-tenth of his total assets.

This was already heavy bleeding. Looking at Qiao Devin's current expression, Luo Xiu understood this.

However, compared with his previous life, Luo Xiu proposed several forward-looking investments to the bank, which allowed the bank to earn far more than the "5%" value within half a year. Therefore, for Qiao Dewen, such a profit transfer is also It's quite acceptable.

"On the principle of exchange, Mr. Qiao Devin."

Looking at Qiao Devin who was in a gloomy mood, Luo Xiu smiled and said:

"I won't let you suffer in vain. Please believe that I am not just someone who embezzles."

"Let me tell you something - just in the town of Oncica, at the foot of the Flood Mountains on the outskirts of there, thirteen miles north, there is a dragon crystal vein that has not yet been discovered. And not long ago After that, the empire will issue a decree on the comprehensive collection of high-purity dragon crystals, and the price collected will be 1.3 times the market price.”

"Please send someone over to investigate, Mr. Qiao Dewen. This is my gift to you for our new cooperation."

When Luo Xiu said this, Qiao Devin, who was still in pain, suddenly had a bright light in his eyes.

"A new dragon crystal vein?" Qiao Devin almost shouted out loud, "You mean a new dragon crystal vein? That's a vein worth at least tens of millions!"

"That's enough to cover your 'loss', right?"

Luo Xiu crossed his hands and said with a kind expression, "Please organize an exploration team. The profit from mining this vein will be based on seven for you and three for me."

"Haha, of course that's no problem!" Qiao Devin suddenly laughed, and the haze that he had just been forced to transfer suddenly disappeared, "I also want to convey the same words to you - it is really pleasant to talk to you,' Luo His Excellency Xiu Carlos."

……

After that, Luo Xiu and Qiao Devin went to his "president's" office to sign new contracts.

Luo Xiu's original assets in the bank were 120,000 yuan. Under Qiao Dewen's operation, two-thirds of them will be used for investment, and the other third will be used as the starting capital of the chamber of commerce to start preparations.

For the chamber of commerce that was about to be established, Luo Xiu named it "Iris" - the name was taken from the Manston family's family flower, which was regarded as a kind of commemoration.

The "Iris Chamber of Commerce" is recorded in the name of "Index", and Index is fully responsible for its management.

As for the transfer of 5% of the equity, Luo Xiu looked at the contract drawn up by Qiao Devin and signed the name "Qiao Devin" with trembling fingers. This was considered done.

After actually holding this 5% equity, Luo Xiu can receive dividends of about 50,000 Nolan gold coins every month, and these dividends will also be directly converted into the currency of the empire and transported to the "Iris Chamber of Commerce" on a monthly basis for delivery. To Intis.

About half of this money will be used for the daily turnover and expansion of "Sacred Abyss", and the other half will be used for continued investment and increased returns. As for the remaining money, it will fall back into Luo Xiu's pocket, and he will be able to do more things more confidently and boldly.

Finally, the contract regarding the "Oncica Town" dragon crystal vein has not been signed yet. It is necessary to wait for Qiao Dewen to organize the exploration team and complete the exploration and valuation before formulating the terms of the contract.

But that's Joe Devin's thing. Luo Xiu's purpose of coming to Songyuan City-El Dorado Bank this time has been achieved, so he is ready to say goodbye to Qiao Dewen and leave.

Qiao Devin personally escorted Luo Xiu to the first floor of the bank. There, Luo Xiu saw Gonzalo and Intis who were already waiting there, so he walked towards them.

Seeing Luo Xiu coming, Intis stood up from the tea seat and came to Luo Xiu and Qiao Devin.

She lifted the hem of her skirt with both hands, saluted elegantly to Luo Xiu and Qiao Dewen again, and said:

"It seems that my brother and the president are getting along very happily, and even I am a little jealous."

"You are joking, Miss Index." Qiao Dewen smiled, "Your Excellency Luo Xiu is still a great 'businessman'. After this in-depth conversation, I am more certain of this."


Behind Intis, Gonzalo also walked over. He still had a confused and puzzled look on his face, but most of it had faded away.

While Luo Xiu and Qiao Devin were chatting, Intis also chatted with Gonzalo, which made Gonzalo understand something about "extraordinary" things, but as an ordinary person, he could not understand more.

But that was enough - for Luo Xiu, as his agent who later cooperated with "Songyuan City-El Dorado Bank", Gonzalo's rank was indeed not enough.

He will directly connect with Qiao Devin in the future.

As a Saint of Nothingness, Qiao Devin may use his own methods to "erase" or "beautify" this memory of Gonzalo, but that has nothing to do with Luo Xiu.
