Chapter 79 Rumors Show Power (Part 1)

"You are so slow, master!" Arya saw Igor He jumped up and shouted in dissatisfaction.

"Where did you go?" Tyrion also frowned and stared at Igor: "Let Miss Stark show you the store, and let the customers who want to buy bonds wait for you, huh - what a Night's Watch chief logistics officer Where's the official!"

Sorry, Igor immediately realized who the other two people in the room were, and immediately apologized. He had previously told Tyrion that oneself would stay in the office at all times, and it was almost a bad thing to break the promise inexplicably for the idle move of "fishing Jaqen out". This mistake happened in the initial stage of the bond, and even oneself felt unforgivable. , No wonder even Tyrion, who has always been good-natured, has a bad tone.

 …

"Well, it was a pleasure chatting with Miss Stark." A man pulled by Tyrion said with a smile, he had only come to see the House Lannister's face Look, who would have thought to see the current Prime Minister's daughter here - with their Fiefdom status and class, they had nothing to do with House Stark, so just rushing to this point, and waiting a while is not for nothing.

"This is Leanne Brun Ser, this is Roger Ser Hogg, two nobles of the Crownlands."

"Hello, sorry again for being late. "Igor said hello to the two of them, and hurriedly tidied up his clothes: "Please go inside."

＊＊＊

If you borrow money from others, you have to make others wait. If these two guests are today Showing his face or shaking his head and leaving, Igor could only laugh with no temper. Fortunately, because of Arya's presence, the two of them were still polite - Igor was relieved fortunately, spending two or three hours a day dealing with the little she-wolf, and he took the trouble to get close to her, which finally came in handy.

Aquan, an office employee of "Xinzhao", was instructed to guard the door outside, and Igor invited the guests into the inside for a detailed discussion. After the introduction and explanation process was over, both of them bought 100 Golden Dragons each at once. The signing process was over, and after a while, Night's Watch sent them out of the office.

......

"I can understand that you are busy, but let me know in advance, or simply make an appointment and tell me which days you are sure to be there and which days I don't have to Can you bring someone here?"

Igor was right, and naturally agreed. For many reasons, he could have someone to keep the gate for oneself, but the power to finally sign a valid bond must never be transferred to the outside world. But he does have to do other things from time to time... Thinking about it carefully, it is necessary to determine the arrangement of a working day and a rest day.

"I have some new ideas, I have to discuss them with you." Tyrion didn't intend to hold on to Igor's mistake, and quickly returned to his old expression: "You saw it too, I can pull people in, It's easy. I know who has spare cash and will give me face, and I can see who is easy to persuade - but even if they are dragged through the door, they will only buy the minimum amount of one hundred Golden Dragon ...you don't show them anything you can see and touch, you just rely on flicking, and it is impossible for them to take out the family property."

"Indeed, but with the smooth progress of the first and second batches Getting a return..."

"That will take time." Tyrion interrupted Igor with a wave of his hand: "My thought was, since I'm going to work with people in the future, why not make something like a bond, The relevant agreements on investment, cooperation and dividends are written on it as a certificate?"

"You mean, a new bond product?" Igor immediately understood what Tyrion meant: "We can make an 'investment certificate' , calculate the capital required to establish a series of industrial chains such as papermaking and printing, and then this coupon represents the owner's share in the physical industries of our papermaking, printing plants and even bookstores in the future."

“ That's right, that's what I mean. This bond can complement each other with bonds. The bond's return is low, but it can be withdrawn at any time with the principal and interest. And this... The return on investment bonds depends on the business situation and may be extremely high. But the principal has become part of the workshop and factory, and can only be transferred to others, not taken out!" Tyrion said: "In this way, we can balance two kinds of customers: those who have some spare money but can use it at any time, buy Night's Watch bonds; And if you have a lot of money, you just have nowhere to go, so you can directly invest in thousands!"

"It's a good idea. When the product comes out, you can get some high-quality samples to attract investment." Igor didn't know Why is it a little uneasy, "I leave this to you, business and management are yours, and I am responsible for ideas and technology. I will often visit Nina's side recently to make sure their improvements are completed as soon as possible."

"en. ”

Taking a breath, Igor quickly understood where the vague sense of unease was coming from: everything was moving too fast, and at first he just wanted to run a Ponzi scheme It’s enough to gain a firm foothold, how come the interest of the first demolition of the east wall to make up the west wall has not been paid, and things like financing and shares have also appeared? With the identity and ability of oneself, can you control the beast of capital?

He's not good at these things, but there's no way out, unless he slaps Tyrion and flees across the narrow sea to live incognito until he grows old, otherwise he can only move forward, which... It is probably the mental journey that entrepreneurs must go through.

Fortunately, he has few competitors in this world, along with the help of a resourceful Lannister.

"Have you finished your discussion, and are you still practicing today!?" Arya hates hearing about bonds, shares, etc. -- except that they are related to She didn't understand anything about money, she only knew that oneself spent the whole day waiting and did nothing: "Just now those two guys... grabbed me and kept asking this and that, and in the end they returned Ask me if I'm married, if I have a crush, it's none of their business!"

"Actually, it's none of their business." Tyrion was amused by Arya, and oneself just pulled two Crownlands The wealthy Knight, in the identity of Arya Stark, even if he wants to get married, he will choose the powerful count Marquess. Where can these low-level nobles be asked? But it's not for nothing that they care about it: "Your elder sister Sansa is engaged to Prince Joffrey, and the Stark will be one of the most powerful families in the Seven Kingdoms for at least a hundred years, the marriage of your future queen younger sister , but it touches the nerves of the Seven Kingdoms people!"

"che, Sansa is a big idiot, marrying that big liar Joffrey is a perfect match, I don't want to be like her!"

Igor cheered in her heart, but after all, she couldn't let her continue to impudent to tell the truth, so she could only quickly stop: "Where is my little lady disciple? Don't speak rude words!"

"humph ." Arya thought of the butcher boy who practiced swords with oneself again, tears rolled in her eyes, sniffed, pouted and stopped talking.

＊＊＊

Yes, Sansa is engaged to Joffrey, Eddard Stark is not only the current Prime Minister and good brother of the king, but also the father-in-law of the future king, I am afraid even Ai De oneself didn't realize that: in fact, this is the confidence that he still dares to invite to come even knowing that King's Landing is dangerous and unusual. Unfortunately, in the original plot, under the temptation of Littlefinger, he soon discovered the secrets of Cersei and James, and the original confidence turned into the greatest threat. With this guy's arrogance, it is naturally impossible for oneself's baby daughter to marry a rambunctious product - especially the illegal child of Kingslayer, who is the most disdainful of oneself; but "honor" does not allow him to hurt children, under this contradiction , and all that happened next.

Thinking of this, Igor suddenly remembered the rumors that oneself spread with his own hands a few days ago. Out of the principle of being cautious, he didn't even tentatively mention it to anyone before and after doing this... It is conceivable , oneself will be busy with other things for a long time in the future. If you forget about "dealing with Littlefinger and preventing the war from happening", and the Battle of the Five Kings still happens in confusion, it will be troublesome.

He had to know now if the rumors had played a role, to see if oneself had to do something else next.

"That's right." He opened the mouth and said, pretending to remember, "I heard a very serious rumor in the past two days, I don't know about you..."

"You mean that Littlefinger murdered former Prime Minister Jon Arryn?" Tyrion twitched his lips: "It's been rumored all over the city wind and rain, I just heard that day by day... I don't know what you're doing."
