Chapter 734 Cooperation

The April sunlight shone through the glass windows into the headmaster's office at Hogwarts, illuminating everything in the office extremely brightly. Let go of the gloomy feeling of the old castle that used to be in the whole house.

Now the war situation is as exciting as today's weather for Ryan and others, so taking advantage of this gathering time, everyone began to discuss the arrangements for many things after the war in the principal's office. After all, this war has completely torn the entire British society apart, so there will be many things to deal with after the war is over.

So when the battle situation has dawned, Ryan and the others need to make some general preparations in advance. In this way, unnecessary losses caused by mistakes in the busy schedule can be avoided after the war is truly won.

Fortunately, with the experience of the last war, there is no need for everyone to discuss the series of things about the handling of war criminals and post-war reconstruction. As long as you follow the cases left over from the past, at most, there are more criminals who need to be judged this time, and everyone needs to devote more energy to the trial. So there is no need to discuss anything.

But in addition, there are some situations that have never happened before that do need to be arranged in advance, such as the United Wizards of Britain Bank. Its existence will definitely break the current financial monopoly of Gringotts on the British wizarding world.

Apparently, Professor Dumbledore noticed this too. So after planning the attack on London, the first post-war issue discussed was the issue of the United Wizarding Bank of Britain.

Now, the first thing we want to discuss is the status of the United Wizarding Bank of Britain after the war. Dumbledore said after looking at the others in the room. Of course, I also invited Mr. Xiong Duosu, the president of the bank, to discuss this issue with us today.

After finishing speaking, Professor Dumbledore released his phoenix patron saint. The silver patron saint flew around the office and then sank directly into the wall. A few minutes later, a chubby and furry figure opened the door and walked in.

Good morning, nice to meet you. After entering the door, Xiong Duosu clasped his paws together and raised them to his chest, then leaned forward slightly and bowed his hands to everyone. And several people in the office also stood up and saluted the pandaren in their own way.

Ah, Mr. Xiong Duosu, please sit down. Professor Dumbledore stood up from his chair and said in Mandarin, then waved his wand and created a chair as huge as a sofa beside Ryan and the others, signaling for everyone to sit down. Down.

Mr. Principal, what is the reason why you asked me to come here today? Xiong Duosu said with a simple and honest smile on Xiong's face, but if there is a Chinese alchemist here, he will definitely know this pandaren Absolutely found a good opportunity to make money, and now he is trying to reduce the negotiating opponent's vigilance by virtue of the unique advantages of the race.

Of course, Dumbledore is absolutely unaware of this kind of thing, and because he has devoted most of his life to education, he is not very good at this kind of business negotiation, so Mr. Principal directly said that he was looking for pandaren this time for what.

Mr. Xiong Duosu, said Dumbledore, you know that we are about to win this war, so we have to make some arrangements for the post-war issues, the most important of which is about the Bank business.

I understand, Mr. Dumbledore. Xiong Duosu raised a paw and said. As a currency issuing bank, it's definitely not okay to be in the hands of foreigners. So I think today you should want us to hand over control of the bank, right?

Yes, that's right. Ms. Burns said in a low voice. Xiong Duosu's frankness made Dumbledore and Burns a little embarrassed, because it made them look like the kind of people who cross rivers and tear down bridges. After taking advantage of others in the most difficult and dangerous times, now when it is time to reap the fruits of the battle, they are excluded,

However, for the financial independence of the British wizarding community, some things had to be done.

That's good, I like straightforward people like you when I do business. The panda man said after patting his thigh with his paw, In fact, we have received domestic orders, and they think that the current state is just A temporary measure in an emergency. We can give 28.1% of the shares to the British Ministry of Magic, and help the British Ministry of Magic to make up the absolute majority of 50.1% of the shares.

Speaking of this, Xiong Duosu reached out and picked up a piece of baked golden honey pastry from the plate on Dumbledore's table and ate it, and then said, Because we have prepared before, we will also help you in the UK. People have cultivated a group of manpower. Now those who are in important positions only need to be withdrawn, and your people will be able to get started soon.

Thank you so much. Ms. Burns said excitedly. Given the greediness of the goblins in the past, she thought that she would experience many difficulties in getting the bank back. But I didn't expect these pandaren to be so easy to talk to, and even helped them train a group of technicians who could directly take over the bank.

By the way, what price will we have to pay to get these things back? After being excited for a while, Ms. Burns finally realized a very important question, because it is obvious that such a large amount of business cannot be given away for nothing.

It's very simple, you only need to increase the current market price by 15% of the shares we handed over to you within two months. This includes all personnel training costs and technology transfer costs. Xiong Duosu said.

This request is not high, and it can even be said to be very conscientious. Of course, Xiong Duosu didn't lose money either. After all, the bank invested very little at the beginning, and now the money earned from selling the shares is more than 20 times the cost at that time. And they can also retain the remaining 21.9% of the shares to bring long-term benefits to themselves

Not to mention that as the vanguard of the Chinese magic world going overseas, they have successfully gained the favor of the British magic world and really gained a firm foothold here. So this investment was very successful for the Pandaren.

Of course, of course, the price you offered is very, very reasonable. Ms. Burns said shyly, However, we may not be able to spend that much money within the time you stipulated.

What Ms. Bones said was true. The half-year war had indeed put a huge financial burden on the Ministry of Magic, and even bonds were issued several times. In view of the fact that most of the people standing here have no money, in the end, more than 90% of these bonds were bought by Ryan at a price of 10% or 50% off the face price with various materials and hard currency needed by the Ministry of Magic.

So Ms. Burns turned her head to look at Ryan after saying that she had no money in embarrassment: Mr. Liang, that—

You need to borrow money again, right? Ryan looked generous, How many years do you plan to borrow this time?

I think it might be twenty years. At this point, Ms. Burns was even more embarrassed, Because I borrowed too much money before, the Ministry of Magic may not be able to repay the money you borrowed in a short time. So Rather than being embarrassed by not being able to pay, I might as well choose one with a longer lifespan.

The three-year interest rate is 4%, the five-year interest rate is 5%, and the ten-year interest rate is 8%. Ryan said the interest rate that the Ministry of Magic asked him to lend money before. If it is 20 years, what interest rate will you give?

13.5 per cent, blurted Ms. Burns, apparently having consulted with the rest of the Ministry before coming. This interest rate is not low, but compared with the interest rate asked by the greedy goblins when they borrowed from Gringotts, Ryan's side is definitely a creditor of conscience.

Of course, Ryan nodded, and then said to Xiong Duosu next to him, Well, Uncle Duosu. I'll go directly to the bank with you in a while, and then I'll give you the money. Ms. Burns will also be there Go and sign the loan documents.

Very good. No problem. A bear and a man nodded at the same time. After finally confirming that the business was negotiated, Professor Dumbledore patted his hands lightly to summon a house elf and gave a few orders. The house elf nodded and disappeared.

Soon the house elf appeared in the office with a wine bottle and several cups on a silver tray. Dumbledore uncorked the cork with his wand and directed the wine bottle to pour mead into all the glasses, and then Have the house-elves pass these mugs to everyone in the office.

Cheers to our successful cooperation! Seeing that everyone got the glasses, Dumbledore smiled and raised the glasses in his hand.

cheers!
