Chapter 212 The Ocean of Insects(1/3)
"Okay, who cares about getting a lot of bad bills? Grayson, tell me how much the Runwanjia has lost in total!"
Clarinda threw the pile of bills in front of her on the floor and asked the general manager of Runwanjia Spiritual Weapon Factory who had just arrived with a gloomy face.
Grayson had a pair of dark circles under his eyes, as if he hadn't slept for three days, and replied in a daze: "Sir, after factories in various places canceled the lighting assembly lines, in this lighting war, our Runwanjia lost a total of about 820,000 gold dragons.
”
After swallowing, Grayson continued to answer carefully: "In addition, if you breach the agreement with a partner from another city, you will need to pay liquidated damages of about 280,000 gold dragons. In addition, in addition... In addition, you will also have to pay Duke's infringement fees.
A total of about 120,000 gold dragons."
Clarinda was furious after hearing the report.
He punched the table, and the expensive desk made of Lingzhi wood was directly smashed into pieces by his arcane punch.
Standing on the debris of the desk, Clarinda asked gloomily: "How much does it add up to?"
"A total loss of 1.22 million gold dragons."
"What do shareholders say?"
"They..." Grayson didn't dare to answer.
Clarinda suddenly used the Mage's Hand and grabbed Grayson. As a third-level arcanist, he had also built the Mage's Hand arcane wonder. To him, the Mage's Hand was almost the same as the third one.
.
Caught Grayson.
After landing, Grayson grimaced in pain, but fortunately his skin was only bruised and he suffered no internal injuries.
Holding back his tears, he replied: "Sir, the shareholders of the company... The shareholders unanimously agree... No, no, no, Master Aziguli objects... They think you should bear 80% of the responsibility... Ah
Lord Ziguli is willing to share some of the burden with you..."
Clarinda's face turned blue and black, and she said after a while: "Okay! I fulfilled their wish!"
Then he said to Grayson: "I will pay 80% of the compensation. Aziguli does not need to bear it for me. Calculate how much compensation I have to pay."
"976 thousand gold dragon."
"It seems that it has been settled a long time ago." Clarinda said coldly.
Grayson remained silent, his body covered in bruises and bruises, each one hurting him so much that he had no intention of answering Clinda's questions.
After a long time, Clarinda waved her hand: "Get lost."
"Yes, sir!" Grayson quickly bowed and excused himself.
Clarinda quickly called her butler over: "Cross, how much money is left in the Tali treasury?"
"Master, there are still 150,000 gold dragons." Butler Cross replied.
"So few?"
"Sir, you have forgotten that the dividends from Runwanjia Spiritual Weapon Factory were not paid this year. In addition, we also lent a loan of 100,000 gold dragons to Runwanjia."
"When will the next funds arrive in the tower?"
"This..." Cross hesitated for a moment before replying, "Sir, our tower's funds mainly rely on the dividends of Runwanjia. The situation of Runwanjia in the past two years has not been good, so it is difficult for the tower's income to be increased.
Maintain normal expenses."
"How could this happen?" Clarinda couldn't believe it. "Is the income from the property in my hands so small?"
Cross thought for a moment and replied: "The main reason is that our tower has few research projects and cannot achieve balance of payments."
Saying this, Clarinda's originally dark complexion turned even darker.
He is an arcanist who changed careers. After his spiritual core was broken, it was difficult for him to participate in the pioneering war as before. He wanted to change his career to do research, but he could not get any scholar title, and he had no clue about the research topic. As a result, the mage tower could only rely on the outside.
Enter funds to maintain.
Originally, with the support of Runwanjia, my life was still smooth, so I never thought about this.
Now I understand the importance of the matter. Once there is a problem with the Runwan family, even the operation of the mage tower will have problems.
However, Clarinda was not without a trump card. She said with a black face: "In other words, in a short period of time, the Mage Tower will have no income?"
"I'm afraid so, sir."
"Huh, prepare an announcement for me." Clinda struggled for a while and made the final decision, "Notify the Xibidi Ling Mining Company that I will sell 1% of the Xibidi Ling Mining Company.
shares."
"Master!" Cross exclaimed.
Xibidi Ling Mining Company is the well-deserved money printing company in Shenjiao City. Even if it only has 1% of the shares, it is a family heirloom.
Enough to support the continuation of the family for several generations.
Now that Clarinda has made her decision, she has to think through all the consequences: "Go for it, it's just a small share. If your descendants can make a difference, why do you need this little share? If your descendants have no future, this little share is just a living thing."
Cross said with moist eyes: "Master, you have to think twice, this may affect the family for several generations!"
"I have considered it very clearly. The shares in Xibiti Spiritual Mine Company were obtained because I was promoted to the third level arcanist, not because the family passed it down to me. It can be seen that the so-called heirlooms are empty talk, and the younger generations are incompetent and cannot be protected at all.
If not, I might as well use it to solve my current predicament."
Butler Cross had no choice but to follow Clinda's instructions to draft a share sale announcement.
Any change in the shares of Xibidi Ling Mining Company requires a voting resolution by all shareholders, especially the absorption of new shareholder members.
In fact, this is more like a high-level small circle.
Arcane mages of level 3 and above are all major shareholders of Xibiti. Arcane mages of level 2 can basically just drink some soup.
Even so, the arcane mages who were eyeing the shares of the Xibidi Spirit Mine Company still lined up in a long queue.
Therefore, when the announcement of the sale of Clerinda's shares was sent to Xibidi Ling Mining Company, the management followed the established procedures and sent invitations to vote on the resolution to all shareholders.
And the company's board of directors will decide how to deal with these 1% shares.
Is it an internal repurchase or looking for new shareholders?
……
Keyston Master Tower, white clouds lingering halfway up.
In the small villa in Genting Garden, Kirsten Fury, who has a golden lion-like hair, is playing a game of Othello similar to Go with his great-granddaughter Kyria Fury.
"Little Kiriya, you are a really good classmate. You have the title of Erudite. Hehe, my grandfather was already 70 years old when he got the title of Elemental Scholar. This kid has just turned eighteen. Tsk tsk, his head is full of
How long.”
Christian was talking while playing chess.
Kilia smiled sweetly and said: "Grandpa, you are good at accumulating experience. As for Duke, he is indeed gifted. I have to admit this."
"Oh, even my little dragon admits that Duke is excellent?"
"Grandpa, you are joking again. My talent is much worse than Duke's. Duke should be the kind of truly talented arcane mage." Kiriya thought about it carefully, "When we first met, I thought he was taciturn.
, the same temperament as Director Lidman."
"Then what?"
"Later I discovered that although he loves research and is obsessed with research, he is not rigid in life. On the contrary, he is very funny and has a very active personality."
"Well, he is very devoted when doing research and has achieved very good results, which means that his IQ is top-notch; he is interesting and active in life, and he can win the appreciation of my little Kilia, which means his emotional intelligence is also top-notch."
Christian stopped playing chess and said with great interest: "Both businessmen are top-notch. What an outstanding young man he is!"
Kiriya nodded: "It is indeed excellent."
She recalled her classmates in Penrose Wizard Tower, Blanc was cynical and alienated, and Oriana and Bazaar were too flattering.
Only Duke gave her a different feeling.
I neither deliberately alienated myself by pretending to be aloof, nor did I try to flatter myself. Every time I got along, I was on an equal footing, and the feeling of being neither far nor close was just right.
But occasionally when the two of them were joking together, she could feel that Duke would inadvertently reveal a strong sense of confidence, as if he was the greatest in the world.
She had only experienced this kind of confidence from her grandfather.
But Grandfather Keithon is the well-deserved leader of the Black Flood River, the only 5th ring ocean arcane mage, and he deserves this confidence.
Duke has such self-confidence. In her opinion, it comes from having a clear understanding of her future.
In other words, this is the style that only belongs to the true pride of heaven.
"Little Kylia?" Christian stretched his head and shouted.
Kylia, who was recalling her interactions with Duke, finally came to her senses: "Huh?"
"Oh, my little dragon!" Christian shouted happily, as if he had discovered a new world, "Tell grandpa, little Kylia, are you attracted to this Duke?"
"No way!"
"Grandpa lived almost two hundred years old. How many people's lives have been fleeting in Grandpa's eyes? I can't guess their little thoughts?"
Seeing this, Kiriya simply opened up and said: "A little bit, right? Duke is neither as proud as a child from a noble family, nor as humble as a commoner. How can I put it, when chatting with him?
It’s really relaxing.”
