The Lord has suspended trade in the Noldor Forest.

He personally went to the unfinished market and told everyone that this time it allowed the Noldor to see the sincerity of mankind. Real large-scale transactions would not be carried out until the road was built.

He also said that a way must be found to resolve Aldarion's hostility to humans, otherwise no one would dare to send in large quantities of goods, and Noldor goods would not be able to be taken out.

The Noldor and merchants alike agreed that transportation and security seemed to be the biggest problems.

In fact, neither of these two things is the most important - as long as the trading market is built in White Deer Castle, these two problems will not exist at all.

But the problem is that if the market is built in Bailu Castle, it is equivalent to a business.

Just waiting for the Noldor to come over will make it difficult to achieve the Lord's ultimate goal.

Regardless of the eighty-mile distance difference, the concepts are completely different - one is in the human home, and the other is in the Noldor home.

This is the difference between active and passive.

The Noldor must be made to feel convenient and safe, and allowed to enjoy the ease of passively accepting the convenience, so that the Lord's final intention can be achieved.

Therefore, when the lord stopped the transaction, he actually just wanted to solve the problem of the Noldor having no money.

First, let the Noldos have their first money to spend, and they must spend it comfortably, so as to fundamentally promote continued consumption.

After thinking about the silver coins in the warehouse in the territory, the lord decided to start a regular business while building roads.

"Sir, I still don't understand the banking business you mentioned..."

Laisili looked embarrassed. She was from Buckley. She knew Buckley's bank, but she didn't understand Li Ang's intention.

"It's very simple, you just tell those businessmen to deposit their money in the bank, and the bank will provide them with a 10% annual dividend. In addition, the bank's main business is mortgage loans, and all the loans previously provided to the businessmen will be transferred

In the bank, the interest rate of 1% per week is reduced to 2% per month. Deposits can be withdrawn at any time with the bank book, and large transactions can also be settled directly at the bank - so that they do not have to carry a large amount of dinars around.

It will be safer."

Li Ang explained the most basic business logic concisely.

"It sounds good, but does this mean we have to have a lot of people who can calculate accounts? And...if they only save money and don't lend money, won't they lose money?"

Laisili frowned, she could realize that if you want to do this kind of business, you must have a lot of people who are good at calculating accounts.

And...what if someone gets ripped off?

"Everyone among the Noldor elves is literate and can settle accounts, and I wish those merchants would only save money and not lend money, and some people would take loans... You should do two things first: First, tell those merchants that I want to open a bank

, intends to raise a large amount of funds, the original shares are first come, first served, and no waiting will be done after the expiration date. Second, build the two largest stores and the strongest warehouses in the center of Bailubao and Nodo Forest Market respectively - build as big as you can.

How big is the construction?"

The Lord stood on the hill of White Deer Castle and pointed: "The bank on the White Deer Castle side is built there."

He was referring to the only open space in White Deer Castle, which was right next to the newly built camp of the Noldor Rangers. Further up was the main castle, which was indeed quite safe.

"Have you heard? Master Li Ang is going to build a bank in White Deer Castle..."

"I just learned about this. It is said that the Eastern Bank is called Eastern Bank and it is raising funds. Do you plan to invest?"

"Of course, the business started by Mr. Li Ang requires investment. I'm afraid he won't look down on my dinar..."

"I heard that depositing dinars directly in the bank can earn 10% interest every year. Does Mr. Leon have too much money?"

"You won't get robbed if you deposit the money, right?"

"What are you thinking... Those Noldor rangers will be guarding the bank, who dares to rob it? Besides... robbing the dinar is worse than robbing the Noldor girl..."

"The price of Nuo girls is not as high as before... I just came from Changhe Town, and there are no slave catching teams in the tavern there. It is said that even Qiaoyan Bay doesn't buy much anymore.

Already..."

"You can see so many elf girls every day in White Deer Castle. The more you see them, the less rare they become..."

"Yes, just like the spices in the Bacchus Empire, they were more expensive than gold a few years ago. Since the advent of the Long River Express, the price has dropped tenfold. Fortunately, I am not in the spice business."

"But I'm still very envious...it's really beautiful!"

"Didn't Master Li Ang say that as long as the elf girls are willing, it's okay to make friends? They are also quite kind... I think you can give it a try..."

"Come on, although I am usually quite kind, my skills are not something we can afford to offend. If I get angry, I'll give you an arrow..."

"If they like me, I would rather be shot with an arrow..."

From White Deer Castle to Maixiangling, merchants are discussing the lord's new business.

However, the topic often quickly turns to the Nuo girls...

In fact, banks are nothing new in this world, especially Buckley. The first thing he did after the establishment of the Buckley Business Alliance was to open an initial bank.

Most of the merchants in Pendor Continent have also heard of it.

However, you can get high interest by depositing money in the bank. This kind of thing has not been seen very often by businessmen in Pende Continent - Buckley's bank is for property custody, and people who deposit money have to ask the bank for money.

Pay a small storage fee.

But the Lord, this bank, not only took the risk of helping people keep the dinars, but also paid interest to the people who deposited the money?

This is something new, and many people even think that the lord has too much money to spend and plans to spend it all...

But no matter what, the lord's appeal is still very strong now. When he said he wanted to raise funds, these businessmen were the ones who responded fastest.

The key is that this investment is completely risk-free - no matter whether the business itself makes or loses money in the early investment, the lord will make deposits to accrue interest as long as it is a one-year regular basis.

In other words, as long as you deposit money in the bank, it is considered an investment. Not only will you get interest, but you will also receive dividends after making profits in the future!

When needed, as long as you give up interest and dividend rights, the principal can even be withdrawn at any time!

Where can I find such risk-free investments?

"Sir, is this really appropriate? Although this can absorb a huge amount of dinars, if not enough people lend money, we will go bankrupt in a year..."

Laisili was quite anxious. She felt that Lord Lord's method of using deposits as financing was really a bit hasty.

"Don't worry, we will officially open on October 1st. When we open on that day, you will know how many people will take out loans..."

Li Ang seemed confident.

There is still half a month until October 1st, and he still has plenty of time to prepare.

…

On September 17, the king's envoy came to White Deer Castle to summon orders.

The messenger said that King Ulric would personally come to Changhe Town for inspection in a few days, and hoped that Baron Leon would go to Changhe Town to greet him.

The messenger's face was full of compliments. He felt that His Majesty the King was going to personally confer a royal title on Li Ang. It was obvious that Baron Li Ang had made great contributions in the north and was either going to be promoted or expand his territory. Anyway, Baron Li Ang had made great achievements in the north.

There is definitely nothing wrong with flattering more.

This is not an unexpected thing. Since Ulric didn't ask Leon to go to Lion City to report his work, he would probably come to Changhe Town by himself. After all, the King's Seal has not been recovered yet, so he can only come in person.

.

So Leon set off very simply, and brought his Noldor Ranger Guard with him.

The Noldor Ranger was brought there on purpose, he just wanted to let the king know that he had a good relationship with the Noldor elves.

After arriving in Changhe Town, the lord discovered that Godric was actually staying in the lord's hall for a rare occasion - he usually only stayed in the inner castle, and it was obvious that he was waiting for Leon.

"What do you think he will do?"

Godric asked casually while sitting in the lord's position with his legs crossed and flipping through a book.

"If we do nothing, then he will probably raise a very high tax to rip us off, and will also give me an impossible task... So I brought the Noldor rangers."

Li Ang came over and sat directly on the table: "I guess after seeing the Noldor Ranger, he will not embarrass me anymore, and will probably seal me to Changhe Town. He will definitely hope that I stay away from White Deer Castle...

"

"Then how are you going to deal with it? I can't do the things you did at White Deer Castle..."

Godric put down the book with some unfinished content - he had already turned the last page.

"Don't worry, he won't let you go back to White Deer Keep. As long as he sees these Noldor rangers, he won't rest assured about either of us in White Deer Keep - especially when the strength of his direct troops is greatly damaged.

.According to his way of thinking, the most likely possibility is to change everyone’s positions..."

Li Ang shook his head and smiled.

"You mean that he will let Brennus's people take over White Hart Castle, exchange my fiefdom for your territory, and then let you take over the eastern military affairs? This way everyone seems to have been rewarded, but

But it can make the three of us fight..."

Godric understood what Leon meant.

"Yeah, so our relationship can't be too good... How about you beat me up in public in Changhe Town tomorrow?"

Li Ang spread his hands: "Don't worry, I won't fight back..."

"Hey...is there such a good thing?"

Godric threw the book in his hand into Li Ang's arms, with a grin on his face: "I wanted to beat you up, but look at what books you read all day long? My daughter has been led astray by you.

Got it!"

Li Ang suddenly turned over and got off the table, shaking his head repeatedly: "Don't you also like reading this book... Amy has never read it... Oh, I guarantee that she has never read it! Don't read it tomorrow.
To be continued...
