Gu An, chairman of Sanhai Bank?
Jiang Sui frowned slightly - not long ago, Gu An specifically condemned himself for launching a shameless sneak attack on the Gerbil Gang.
Since the diplomatic relations between the two parties were pretty good before, there was no need to deal with the Aluminum Association as much trouble. Jiang Sui calmed him down casually and successfully got through it with a slight loss of diplomatic rating.
What are you doing here again now?
"Put it through." Jiang Sui didn't think for long, "Let's see what the big banker wants to do with me."
Gu Qinghuan placed the holographic communicator on the table and turned on the connect button.
A man wearing a high-quality custom-made dress and an exquisite IWC watch on his wrist was projected. His neat hairstyle and neat beard all showed his confidence and authority.
"Your Majesty the Governor, I would like to extend my most sincere greetings to you! Long time no see, how have you been these days?" Gu An grinned, and the flattering taste suddenly came to him, "I have recently received a shipment. Would you like a box of the finest tobacco from across the ocean?"
Jiang Sui frowned: "If you disturb the Governor's Mansion for this matter, then I think it is necessary for me to reconsider our bilateral relationship."
Not to mention that Jiang Sui doesn't smoke, even if he smokes, he will definitely not accept gifts from others for no reason.
You want the Governor to owe you a favor for a box of high-end tobacco?
"Mr. Governor, don't be angry!" Gu An said with a smile, "Sanhai Bank wants to do some important business with you, which is good for both of us."
Sure enough, this businessman came here for profit.
All supplies in the canal area are imported, and now they are at war with the people in the south. Expenditures are flowing like water. No matter how big the financial giant is, they can't plug this gap.
The food, weapons and equipment that need to be transported to the front line, the daily expenses of the army, the deployment of soldiers to the front line, resulting in empty production in the rear... and so on, are all big money eaters.
Recently, the Governor's Office's large-scale purchases from the Aluminum Association were spread, so it is understandable that the board of directors of Sanhai Bank came to visit.
Jiang Sui looked at the current data panel and saw that there were no very scarce resources, so he shook his head: "The Governor's Mansion does not have any financial business for the time being. I am busy here, so I will hang up if I don't have anything else to do."
"Mr. Governor, please don't hang up. Just take a few minutes to listen to what I have to say!" As a businessman, Gu An's ability to stalk was naturally top-notch. He quickly shouted, "Sometimes you don't even know what to say!" Once you know what your needs are, you can rest assured that you will never suffer a loss!”
Sometimes consumers don’t know what their needs are…
This sentence is true.
Jiang Sui glanced at his watch, roughly estimated the time it would take for the frigate to arrive at its destination, and said, "You have five minutes."
Gu An didn't waste a second and immediately said: "If you need it, we can help you cast precious metals into currency, which will make it much more convenient for you to collect taxes... and we only charge a very, very small amount. For handling fees, your precious metal quality loss will never exceed one ten thousandth!”
Casting gold into gold coins and silver into silver dollars can indeed reduce the cost of statistical work to a great extent.
However, after the factory is built, Jiang Sui can do this kind of thing by himself - more importantly, he does not plan to use precious metals as currency for a long time.
There is no need to spend so much money to find others to mint coins.
Jiang Sui refused: "No, you still have three minutes."
Gu An didn't expect that he could be rejected so decisively. The smile on his face froze for a moment, but he didn't dare to talk nonsense: "Then... if you have extra wealth, you can consider saving in our bank. You can save at any time within 3 years." The annual interest rate is 4%, and the regular annual interest rate for more than 3 years is 8%. It is definitely an investment that will make a profit without losing money. What do you think?"
Guaranteed profit without loss...
Jiang Sui almost laughed.
Various Ponzi schemes in previous lives have already summed up one truth with blood - excessive interest must represent huge risks.
The higher the interest rate, the risk increases exponentially.
An 8% interest rate basically means 100% risk.
In other words, thunderstorms are certain, it just depends on how long you can play the game of drumming and passing flowers.
Now Sanhai Bank is obviously a little careless in order to raise war funds.
Jiang Sui did not intend to fight with Gu Anxu, and made it clear directly: "Are you in urgent need of funds because of the tight war situation on the front line?"
Upon hearing this, Gu An's whole body visibly stiffened.
Frontline war…funding…
Gu An didn't expect that the governor would speak so directly and clearly, and his dignity was completely stripped away in just a few words!
A few seconds later, Gu An took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat from his forehead: "Mr. Governor, uh, yes, yes."
"But please believe in the credit of Sanhai Bank. This is definitely a business that is sure to make a profit. We have the canal in our hands and have many shares of high-quality assets around the world. You don't have to worry about risks at all!"
Jiang Sui, who had no good impression of the inexplicable sect itself, smiled: "No problem. The Governor's Mansion can provide military assistance to loyal taxpayers, but the assistance is not free. I have three conditions."
Gu An was overjoyed. As long as he was willing to provide support, he could say anything!
It’s not that Sanhai Bank has no assets, but it needs a lot of cash flow for turnover.
As for the conditions... How can there be no conditions when others provide money and effort to help you fight the war?
"I swear to be forever loyal to the Governor! Sanhai Bank is willing to serve the Governor's Mansion!"
Jiang Sui was not interested in this kind of insincere speech, and directly stated his conditions: "First, the loans and military aid from the Governor's Palace require the shares of Sanhai Bank as guarantee, and during the guarantee period, the Governor's Palace Enjoy the decision-making rights of shareholders of corresponding shares.”
"Second, the aid is not a one-time thing. The Governor-General only guarantees that all funds and supplies will be delivered within one year."
"Third, the Government House now needs a top-notch medical team."
"Use your actions to prove your loyalty."
After hearing this, Gu An, who was waiting to be brutally stabbed, showed confusion for a moment - is this what the governor asked for?
Nothing else?
These three conditions are simply too generous. They are so generous that they are not something a vicious man like Jiang Sui could say!
The first condition is that shares are required as a guarantee, and it is necessary to ensure that the bank will not engage in operations such as asset transfers during the guarantee period, which is normal.
The second one is also normal - dispatching and transporting so much material and money will definitely take time, and being able to deliver it within one year is considered very efficient.
As for the third one... in Gu An's opinion, it was given for free and could not be called a condition at all.
Gu An was afraid that Jiang Sui would regret it, so he couldn't wait to express his position by patting his chest: "I will definitely prove it to you! Just don't worry! I..."
Click.
As soon as the five minutes were up, Jiang Sui hung up the call.
As soon as the call was hung up, Staff Officer Zhou Qing took two steps forward and said, "Mr. Governor, even if you ask for a higher price, Gu An will have to agree... But the contract has not been officially signed yet. When the contract is signed, I’ll just add some additional terms for you.”
Jiang Sui shook his head and said with a smile: "No, that's it, no strings attached."
Zhou Qing's face was immediately filled with confusion: "Huh?"
