Chapter 1147: Meeting-4

" Moving on to the more pressing matter. In the following weeks, I might need some funds for personal reason. Just a few billions, not much." He informed them.

They didn’t even react as the amount wasn’t anything substantial for them to think deeply about it. He rarely requested funds as most of the profits from the business and anything they made would be directed to other parts that needed it.

They were a investment firm so they would need large amount of money just to buy some emerging ventures. Not to mention, their profits in the past year had made them numb to money because they felt like if they followed his direction they would always win whether in the market or as venture capital.

" Next, is the direction of our investment need to change a little. You might have heard about new emerging digital currency." He said with a smile.

" I had heard about it but most of the financial institutes think it’s just a way to scam unsuspecting investors. There is no tangible value which makes their value uncertain." Manan added. It was their job to stay up to date with latest technologies especially in the financial sector but as a fund manager he needed to keep in eye on everything after all it was their job to find suitable things to invest in for their shareholders.

" I agree with him. I had read some of their white paper, it’s just a fancy paper with added mathematical formulas to confuse people. These things work due to people’s perception. One need to convince the other party that the price of the ’goods’ is higher so that the former could turn a profit. The latter would repeat the process until there are no buyers." Abigail relayed her thoughts which wasn’t far from the truth but the golden coin he was interested in was a but special.

" I am not saying to blindly biy the market, it would only alarm out competitors but I want to establish a seperate division that would specialize in this department. Their current focus should be on Bitcoin. Just try not let our movements known to others and do it in secret for now."

It was earlier twenty ten so not many people were aware about Bitcoin that launched less than a year ago.

The value was just a fraction of a dollar and people first started paying attention when someone tried to make a purchase whose total value was just over five dollars!

" That’s what I was thinking about too. Still, it would be tough as we don’t have pretige of older banks or generational backing in those regions. At worse, they would surely make us to give up some piece of the pie, if you know what I mean." Your next journey awaits at novelhall.Côm

" Anything is fine as long as we establish branches. Just do more research and support people who are most likely to come into power and give them a push. It would most likely be frowned upon but we couldn’t do anything about it if we want to connect this system with the foundation. Speaking of which how is it going, Lady Mary?"

" The progress is fast but we are having some problems in Russia and some African countries that don’t trust us probably because of their past."

" I see. Leave those places for now, we are not in a hurry, this will be a decade long task so just go with the flow but always make sure nothing shady is happening under our watch." He didn’t want another States fiasco.

" Mr Theo is helping me make sure nothing of that sort ever grace our premises again. We are even employing the help of your guild to check their background in secret which helps us weed out the bad actors."

Samuel smiled lightly thinking about the guild. AXA guild under the leadership of Zero whose identity was still unknown to him seemed to be only wild card under him.

Steve and Arthur had confirmed that the guild didn’t seem to be on his side and had a different agenda which was disappointing as he was the one who decided to spare their legion.

With the demise of House of Medici they decided to sworn allegiance to him as a way for them to exist. Seeing their massive potential and their top notch level when it came to anything related to information gathering, he did allow them.

Strangely even at that time, he never felt hostility from any of guild’s member for the sole reason that he didn’t wipe out the whole lineage of Medici sparing the younger brother who left home after seeing what their family was involved in.

Still, it didn’t sit right with Samuel when the human traffickers were dealt with without them asking for his permission. Both he and Arthur believed they would be able to get enormous amount of information from one of the mysterious organisation’s senior members but their ’mistake’ cut off that path entirely shielding his enemy until now.
