Hakwep was a little confused when he received the letter from his brother.
He is not on duty now, and is meditating in Red Stone City, hoping to increase his magic power to the fifth-ring standard first. The inheritance received by Pabra Group does not include low-mana-consuming magic. With sufficient magic power, it is relatively easy to learn high-level magic.
So now he has no idea that there is a popular game out there.
After receiving the letter, it didn't matter if he asked his friends. The Pabra people who stayed in this mansion, which was similar to a courtyard, had three sets of "Attack and Defense of the Demon Realm" in their hands. Even when he asked, there were two people playing it. , the little brother simply took him to the side to watch live.
The demon clan and the Phoenix King's power?
After looking at it for a while, something felt wrong. The highest value card on the field was only 10 attack and 10 defense. The gap between it and the low-level soldiers was too small. Whether it was the special envoy he had seen with his own eyes or the devil in the horror story, they would not be so weak.
Of course, this does not mean that the attributes of the two should be several times that of ordinary soldiers with hundreds of superimposed states. In fact, there is a five-fold difference. It is difficult to break through the defense. For example, the ratio of the length, width, and height of a cat and a mouse is almost five times. Times, if a cat has murderous intentions, how many mice will it take to kill the cat? Can they bite it?
The example of cat and mouse may not be very suitable, but the principle is similar. It is difficult for low-level and intermediate magic to even work on beings such as envoys and demon kings. If placed in a crowd, they will be invincible. Even the numerical values should not be displayed. How can it be used on the chessboard? You also need to have 99 attack and HP.
Just a game? Why did you choose this subject?
Hackwep is a person who likes to think very much, and it is easy to notice aspects that ordinary people will not pay attention to.
After watching his friends play a game, I felt confident, so I entrusted a foreign friend from the Pabula group who was relatively close to him to go to the royal city to inquire about the news, and I continued to meditate.
A few days later, my friend brought back the news: "I heard that the game was entrusted by the female official of the inner court to the Summer Furniture Factory. This news should be more credible, because many people saw the female official of the inner court almost two months ago. In and out of the furniture factory.”
Hackwep was a little surprised. It was true that the imperial court often supported various industries, but it would actually launch a board game specifically.
Most of the actions of the inner court must be authorized by the Phoenix King, so there should be a profound meaning here.
Unfortunately, the north of Phoenix City is under military control, and outsiders have no way of knowing what's going on in the north. If you take the initiative to inquire, you might be reported as someone spying on military intelligence, so Hackwep doesn't know what's behind it.
To guess, it might be to inoculate the people to avoid some chaos when the demons spread.
As for the matter mentioned in the brother's letter, since it is a game promoted by the inner court, it doesn't hurt to help.
Hackwep is one of the only two fourth-ring mages in the Pabra group. Even if he is not on duty, he still has considerable power. A visit to the Red Stone Headquarters will get the matter done.
Soon a commissioner went to the royal city to handle matters.
Roland, the director of Summer Furniture Factory, was confused. He didn’t know why someone came to deliver money to his door.
Feeling that he might still be dreaming, he wanted to confirm: "Is there really no interest? No strings attached?"
Official banks do not lend money. There are only two small private banks with licenses in Phoenix. The annual interest rate limit for borrowing is 15%. This interest rate cannot support too many bad debts, so small banks will require borrowers to show evidence of their ability to repay. , including business accounts, salary slips, etc. Although the private price of real estate is rising, the official price is still there. Banks only price according to official standards, and no one is willing to use it as a mortgage.
This kind of lending cannot meet all private needs, because some people just want to make huge profits without capital, so they will go to other places to contact some black money banks with higher interest rates.
Such banks often have some very strange lending methods, such as pledging your wife and children without interest. Although human trafficking is officially prohibited, evil-minded guys always find ways to get around it. If they don't buy or sell humans, it's okay to borrow the bodies of someone's wife and children if you and I are willing to do so. If that doesn't work, just take the person to the borrower's home. As a guest, the official has nothing to do with it.
It is difficult to explain the issue of trust verbally, and the effect is also poor. The clerk has already explained the situation before and is too lazy to talk to Roland anymore: "It's all on paper, you can read it yourself."
The language on the paper is very simple: "In view of the strong market response to the game "Demon World Attack and Defense - Battle Edition" produced by Phoenix Summer Furniture Factory (Party B), in order to support the growth of potential enterprises, our bank (Hongxinzi Bank Hongshi Head Office) ( Party A) has specially approved an interest-free loan of 100,000 yuan in Phoenix coins to support Party B in expanding its production scale. The repayment period is five years, and the annual repayment ratio is in accordance with Appendix 1."
Then there is Appendix 1, where you can choose the proportion, including 20% repayment every year, and no repayment in the first year. The most outrageous one is the last one, which is to be paid off in one lump sum in the fifth year.
Attachment 1 also includes the agreed transfer bank and account numbers designated by both parties. All the parts that need to be filled out by Hongxinzi Bank have been filled in and stamped. You only need to choose the repayment mode and sign to take effect.
Except for Hong Xinzi's manager's signature, the words were all stamped on it, so it should be difficult to modify.
"If I sign now, when will I get the money?" Although board games are selling well now, he doesn't make much money, and Roland is still a small-town citizen.
The clerk said directly: "Right now, after signing, you and I will go to Obsidian Bank to transfer the money."
Phoenix Bank has no branches outside Phoenix City. Hongxinzi only has business dealings with Obsidian Bank, and both parties have the other's special bank account for mutual transfer.
"Can I go to the counter of Obsidian Bank to sign?" He was not reassured. When he got to the bank, he could find someone from them to witness it, so he would not be fooled easily.
The clerk rolled his eyes. He didn't know how the inner court chose this person. He nodded helplessly: "Okay, let's go."
Large-amount transfers between banks can be made directly to the VIP room without going through the counter, eliminating the hassle of queuing. The process is quickly completed and the money is transferred to the business account of Summer Furniture Factory.
When he returned to the factory, he still didn't believe it. Roland went to bed early and went to the bank to check the money the next day before he believed that money had fallen from the sky.
Although the money has to be repaid, it is not a big problem. According to the current situation, it is not a big deal to sell fifty sets of board games a day. If the gross profit of a single set of fifty sets remains unchanged, the net profit can reach about 2 yuan. He can earn more than 30,000 yuan a year. After deducting the 20% annual repayment he chose, he can still save tens of thousands.
And with 100,000 in cash, I'm afraid I won't even be able to buy 50 sets.
If Hongxinzi Bank gives money in batches, thousands or thousands at a time, then the expansion of production can only rely on manpower, and the effect is not even good, but more and more people will be paid.
Now if you pay it all in one lump sum, you can use the money to find Xincheng to design specialized equipment, which will be much more efficient than general-purpose equipment.
Roland knew that this kind of thing was not difficult, because there were several large workshops or small factories in the royal city, all of which ordered equipment from Xincheng Heavy Industry. It was better than the steam engines produced by Shuangshi Machinery Factory to be made from the same mold and modified by oneself. Use more.
After consulting with Xincheng Heavy Industries, they suggested that he use semi-magical equipment, which would save a lot of processes. Of course, the equipment would be "a little" more expensive.
Roland didn't understand either. He could only calculate the cost. People from Xincheng Heavy Industry took him to see several pieces of equipment that were being debugged and were about to be shipped out, so he put aside his doubts and placed the order.
Because it is professionally customized equipment, there is no finished product for reference, so there is no quotation at the beginning. We can only collect a deposit of 15% according to the upper limit of the finished product price that Roland can accept. After finalizing the pricing, we will collect 30%, and the rest will wait for the finished product. Come out and check out.
Since board games are already being produced and sold in small batches, it is not just an assumption. Heavy Industry only needs to send people to the Summer Furniture Factory and its cooperative factories to have a look around to know the specific production processes and processing parameters, which saves a lot of money. The research and development time is that the machine is expected to be in place within two months.
