Chapter 602 The Belated Award Ceremony (Two Chapters)
Jingchu Province, Danyang City.
The sudden rise of the Four Seas Bank brought Dichen and others together again.
"It's true, people don't live in peace during the Chinese New Year." Some people couldn't help complaining.
It is rare that all six members of [Yanhuang League] are here.
"Everyone is talking about how we should respond to the actions of the Universal Bank?" As the host, Mr. Chunshen dutifully regarded himself as the host.
Seeing this, Di Chen frowned unconsciously, but finally said nothing. The current situation required the concerted efforts of the alliance, and Di Chen didn't want to get into trouble with Jun Shen from the start.
It has to be said that Dichen's growth is amazing.
"What should I do? In my opinion, just hire some people and destroy those banks." Sha Pojun gritted his teeth. In the Battle of Mobei, the Shapo Army was in a state of embarrassment, and they hated Ouyang Shuo to the bone.
"Don't talk stupid!" Dichen frowned, "Sihai Bank's branch in Wangcheng is protected by the imperial court and guarded by the army. Don't get things done, but get dirty instead."
"Humph!"
Sha Pojun didn't say anything, he also knew that what he said just now was just angry words.
The Battle of Mobei is over, and the status of the Shapo Army in the alliance is probably not even comparable to that of Piao Ling Huan. Even, within the Shapojun family, there is already some dissatisfaction with him as a representative.
Just like that, Sha Pojun no longer dared to talk back to Di Chen's scolding, and his family had to rely on the support of Di Chen's family if they wanted to stabilize their position in the game.
"The rise of the Four Seas Bank is already unstoppable. The plan for now is how to act, absorb the idle funds in the hands of adventure players, and prevent the [Shan Hai League] from being pretentious." Di Chen set the tone.
"Good!" Wolf Warrior first expressed his support.
"In this regard, Huitong Bank is willing to make a move." Chun Shenjun finally caught the opportunity and said with a smile.
In fact, when he learned of the actions of the Four Seas Bank, Mr. Chunshen was surprised at first, and then overjoyed. He has realized that an opportunity to exert influence on the alliance has quietly arrived.
[Yanhuang League] Among the territories, the Huitong Bank belonging to Danyang City is the largest and has the most professionals. It is indeed the best choice to fight against the Four Seas Bank.
Although Di Chen was not happy, he didn't know how to refute.
"I agree!"
Unexpectedly, Xiongba was the first to express his support for Chun Shenjun.
When Di Chen heard this, a trace of suspicion flashed in his eyes. Even Zhan Lang glanced at Xiongba indifferently.
On the contrary, Xiongba, after saying these words, looked calm, as if he had no idea what kind of turbulent waves his move would cause in the alliance.
"Since when did Xiongba and Chunshen Jun get together again?"
This was the doubt in the hearts of Di Chen and the others.
Involuntarily, they thought of the beginning period of [Handan Six Hegemons]. It was at that time, under Xiong Ba's instigation, Chun Shenjun resolutely broke away from [Handan Six Hegemons] and started anew.
Things are fickle.
The former collaborators, after re-establishing the [Yanhuang League], have gradually drifted away because of the conflict of interests, and even, because of Xiongba's protection of Piao Linghuan, the two have become enemies.
Who would have thought that Xiongba is worthy of being a hero.
Everything is based on interests. As long as he thinks that cooperating with Chunshenjun can gain benefits, Xiongba doesn't mind, let go of the old grudge between the two, and cooperate again.
After some ups and downs, Jun Shen at this time also had mixed feelings and gradually matured.
The re-cooperation between the two naturally came naturally.
When Xiong Ba expressed his opinion, Di Chen knew that there was nothing he could do, so he could only admit defeat, "I also agree."
Chun Shenjun smiled slightly.
"In that case, let's talk about the specific equity allocation!" Said Wolf Warrior.
"According to the information I got, one percent of the shares in the Four Seas Bank is worth 200,000 gold coins. Since we are going to compete with the Four Seas Bank, naturally we can't drop the price. I think we should use this as the benchmark." Chun Shenjun said.
"no!"
Di Chen, Zhan Lang and the others refused without even thinking about it.
"Why not?" Jun Shen did not back down.
"Sihai Bank can obtain such a valuation because of its unique reasons." Di Chen was a little amused by Chunshen Jun's appetite, "First, in terms of scale, Four Seas Bank has long established branches in Lingxi City and other territories. , is the veritable No. 1 bank in China. Before and after Shanhai City, no less than one million gold coins were injected into the Four Seas Bank. Coupled with the monthly net financial income of Shanhai City, it was injected into the Four Seas Bank on schedule. Based on this alone, Huitong Can Qianzhuang do it?"
"As far as I know, the Huitong Bank is only serving Danyang City, right? Don't talk about injecting capital into it, the deposits absorbed by the bank itself are almost squeezed dry by Danyang City. The current Huitong Bank is just an empty shell That's all." Dichen continued.
"You!" Chun Shenjun became a little annoyed when he was told.
In my heart, I was even more surprised and uncertain.
Chun Shenjun didn't expect that Di Chen would know the details of Huitong Bank so thoroughly.
The legendary intelligence organization [Difeng] is really extraordinary.
"Second," Di Chen didn't care about it, and went straight on: "The most important factor for Four Seas Bank to be recognized by adventure players is the supreme reputation established by Shanhai City. Therefore, the leaders of the guilds like Bloody Romance , will be willing to pay. Huitong Bank wants to compete with the Four Seas Bank, but it must rely on the reputation and resources of the entire [Yanhuang League]. The two are not the same."
"Brother Dichen is right."
This time, Zhan Lang firmly stood by Di Chen's side. Chunshen Jun's appetite was too big.
"Then what do you think it's worth?" Jun Shen is a businessman, and haggling has almost become his instinct. He didn't expect the proposal just now to be approved.
To say that is just to raise the value of Huitong Bank first.
"50,000 gold coins, and Danyang City cannot have a controlling interest." Di Chen threw out his plan.
"Are you joking?"
Like a cat whose tail has been stepped on, Chun Shenjun suddenly jumped up.
"I'm serious." Di Chen remained calm.
"Since that's the case, let's just split it up. Fifty thousand gold coins? Send the beggar?!" Chun Shenjun's attitude did not soften at all.
"To fight against the Four Seas Bank, we don't have to have the Huitong Bank." Di Chen said leisurely.
This is the biggest bargaining chip in Di Chen's hand.
The matter has developed to the present, and it has basically become a confrontation between Di Chen and Chun Shenjun.
Zhan Lang and the others were obviously led by Di Chen.
Even Xiongba didn't want to see Chunshen Junzi open his mouth, and kept silent tactfully.
"So what? Huitong Bank is the hard work of our whole family, you can't get something for nothing, right?" Mr. Chunshen saw that it would not work to be tough, so he played the emotional card again.
"The controlling stake, Danyang City must be handed over. If it is estimated, I can add another 10,000 gold coins. This is the limit of what I can do. Whether it is successful or not, can you give me a happy word?" Di Chen forced Chun Shenjun to a corner .
Zhan Lang and the others remained silent. At this time, the default means consent.
Seeing this, Mr. Chunshen could only choose to accept it helplessly, and finally said unwillingly: "To hand over the controlling stake, Danyang City must also be the largest shareholder, otherwise, I will not be able to explain to the family."
"Can!"
"The valuation has been raised by another 20,000 gold coins." Jun Shen still didn't give up.
"Don't push yourself too far." Dichen's patience was about to be worn out.
As the heir of the imperial family, Dichen was somewhat displeased with this kind of bargaining.
"Then add another 10,000. This is my bottom line." Chun Shenjun was about to dump the scoundrel. Unlike Dichen, businessmen are sometimes very willing to put on a face for a little profit.
Seeing this, Di Chen exchanged glances with Zhan Lang and the others, and said helplessly, "Okay, then one percentage point, worth 70,000 gold coins. It's just one thing, the funds invested in the shares must be converted into bank reserves."
"It's only natural." Jun Shen also knew what was going on.
After a lot of verbal confrontation, the two sides finally reached an agreement.
"Should we learn from the Four Seas Bank and bring in the guild as a shareholder?" Zhan Lang asked.
"Yes. But their valuation must be 200,000 gold coins a point." Chun Shenjun was unequivocal.
This time, Di Chen and the others were astonishingly unanimous in their attitudes and did not speak out against it.
For the children of these aristocratic families, how can they show their abilities if they don't play tricks. As for how to keep it secret so that the guild leaders don't find out, they have their own way of knowing the huge difference in valuation between the two.
Next, is the discussion of specific equity.
Naturally, the six lords cannot be divided equally. In the alliance, there are still differences between high and low.
As the owner of Huitong Bank, Chunshenjun holds 18% of the shares and is the largest shareholder; Dichen holds 15% of the shares, Warrior Wolf and Xiongba each hold 12% of the shares, Shapojun and Piaoling Magic each hold 10% of the shares .
The remaining 23% is reserved for the guilds that cooperate with [Yanhuang League].
In this way, Huitong Bank can raise 8.73 million gold coins in one go, nearly three million more than the 6 million gold coins of Four Seas Bank.
That would be the case, naturally Chun Shenjun contributed more than 80% of the equity. You know, Shanhai City holds 60% of the shares in Universal Bank and has an absolute controlling stake.
The next day, Huitong Bank issued an announcement through [Daily Express], announcing its official opening. The reserve fund of the bank was exaggerated by them to 10 million gold coins.
In this way, it also aroused the interest of some players.
The overall reputation of [Yanhuang League] still makes players feel at ease.
It's just that Huitong Bank will have to wait until the next year to establish a branch in the Nine Kings City. Chun Shenjun and the others are not as prepared as Ouyang Shuo.
The two big banks are bound to have a fight in the next year.
*************
On New Year's Eve, Ouyang Shuo finished his vacation and returned to Shanhai City.
Ouyang Shuo's attitude towards Huitong Bank's actions was unexpectedly straightforward.
"Let it come!"
This is what Ouyang Shuo said to Xie Siyun and others.
It is also time for the two major alliances to compete head-to-head in the wilderness.
Ouyang Shuo's arrogance is undoubtedly very inspiring.
The specific affairs of the Four Seas Bank are handled by Meng Zhida. Years later, Meng Zhida also plans to send out invitations to the top talents in the financial circle in China and hire them to work in the Universal Bank.
Modern operation and recruiting talents are the consistent philosophy of Universal Bank.
Feng Prisonhuang and others also have the right to recommend some financial talents to work in the Universal Bank.
Ouyang Shuo didn't intend to control the Four Seas Bank completely. If he wants to make the cake bigger, he must first have the heart to eat the big cake.
How could Ouyang Shuo at this time be compared to the cautious little lord when he was just reborn. Around him, with him as the core, a powerful alliance of interests has been formed.
Whether it is a historical talent like Xiao He, or a lord like Xunlong Dianxue, they are all pawns in Ouyang Shuo's hands.
To this day, Ouyang Shuo has a little understanding of his position.
Only by firmly binding the people he needs to his chariot and forming a common interest system can he have a basis for advancing and retreating in the game with [Yanhuang League] and other external forces.
Those individuals, each force, are the pieces on the chessboard. Only when they are united can they be laid out calmly, and they will either abandon their pieces or charge in the fight.
That's why Dichen and the others had a lot of worries when they wanted to deal with the Four Seas Bank.
...
As soon as he came back, Ouyang Shuo issued an imperial edict, rewarding all the generals.
Since the establishment of the military rank system, Ouyang Shuo should have awarded honors to the generals after the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom War. However, after the war, the army was reorganized and there was no time to take this matter into consideration.
Just as the reorganization of the army was underway, the Battle of Mobei followed closely, and it has been delayed until now.
Taking advantage of years ago, Ouyang Shuo wanted to fulfill his promise.
Among the generals, Bai Qi took the rank of general and was truly the number one general in the army. Immediately after, Han Xin, Sun Bin, and Huo Qubing were all commanding the rank of general.
In addition to the four first-rank generals, there are three third-rank generals below them.
Second rank general, temporarily vacant.
The imperial decree promoted Shi Wansui, commander of the Second Army of the Longxiang Army, to General Anxi, Zhang Han, commander of the Second Army of the Baotao Army, to General Anbei, and Di Qing, commander of the Second Army of the Huben Army, to General Anton.
General Si'an, but the post of General Annan is temporarily vacant.
Further down, there is a group of fourth-rank generals.
The imperial edict promoted Elai, Fan Lihua, Luo Shixin, and Wei Zhang to be the four generals of the East, South, West, and North; Goods General.
Further down, there is a group of fifth-rank generals.
Not surprisingly, all generals who hold the post of division commander are promoted to rank five generals. Even the two generals Zhao Ponu and Zhao She who had just joined the army were promoted.
In addition to the rank of general, the Military Affairs Administration also evaluates and promotes the officers and men based on the military achievements they have made since the establishment of the territorial army.
A legion of veterans, earning the highest rank possible for the position.
In addition to being promoted to the military rank, Ouyang Shuo also ordered the whole army, all the officers and soldiers, to pay an extra month's salary in order to reward them for their contributions to the territory.
Even the soldiers of the Taiping Army received the same treatment.
For a while, the army's morale was settled.
Ouyang Shuo's prestige in the army has reached a new peak.
