Chapter 393: The person holding the torch(1/2)

Friday, May 6

The property auction, led by the mining consortium's creditors' group, was held at Dusk Auction House in Milani.

The biggest selling point of this auction is the series of mines under the name of the original mining consortium.

During the auction process, these mines almost failed to sell. It is reported that some large consortiums that were interested felt that their current attitude was unclear and were still waiting and watching.

But in the final stage of the auction, a dark horse named "Rock City Mining United Company" came out and snapped up these mines with lightning speed.

In the end, these mines were sold at a 25% discount to the market price.

The land where the former mining consortium building was built was given away as a gift at the auction.

That night, the flag of the mining consortium that had stood at the mine outside Rock City for decades was taken down and thrown into the feet of the cheering crowd.

―――

Monday, May 16

Witte stood in front of the roaring construction site, watching huge unmanned machines demolish the last part of the mining group building.

The huge excavator swung slightly and hit the orbital mining machine emblem on the front of the building.

The emblem of the mining consortium that had stood for nearly a hundred years fell from the sky, fell to the ground, rolled in a circle, and slowly leaned against the gradually collapsing mining consortium building, like an ancient but brand-new tombstone.

Soon, pieces of construction debris were laid at its feet, burying it together.

Looking at the huge emblem that was gradually buried by the broken cement bricks, a smile finally appeared on Witt's tense cheeks. He opened a piece of chocolate and bit it in his mouth.

"How do you plan to use this land in the future?"

A clear female voice sounded behind him.

"I have donated it to the Rock City Government. There is no national cemetery in Rock City," Witte chewed the chocolate and stared at the soot-filled place. "Perhaps this place will be built into a cemetery in the future."

"cemetery?"

The female voice behind him was obviously surprised.

"elder brother?"

At this time, a muscular figure ran over,

It's Ivo.

He glanced at Witt, and his eyes fell on the workplace beauty wearing a white shirt, a black stocking skirt, and a high ponytail next to Witt, "Who is this?"

"Let me introduce, this is Miss Lina from Nolanka Bank."

Wit gently stretched out his hand and made an introduction, "The loan we used to purchase the mine came from Nolanka Bank, and the interest rate is far lower than the market interest rate."

"Ivo, hello."

Ivo stretched out his hand and introduced himself.

"Hello," Lina smiled,

"Mr. Witte told us very well. We are also here to do business. Kaya City is undergoing large-scale industrial construction and lacks raw materials. Our contract stipulates that the minerals from your mine in the future will be sold to us first.

.”

"But we don't have any sales channels now. We happen to have mines but we can't sell them."

Witt chuckled and said, "Nolanka Bank is different from other financial institutions."

"Mr. Witt was outrageous."

To this, Lina just responded with a smile.

Nolanka Bank helps the Miners Mutual Aid Association, and the cooperation between the two is indeed mutually beneficial.

With the large number of construction projects in Kaya City and the provision of jobs, Nolanka Group's demand for raw materials has increased significantly.

The federal mining monopoly alliance is already discussing raising the prices of some minerals to make a huge profit from the Nolanka Group.

Although their price increase has been accurately calculated and is within the tolerance of Nolanka Group, it also made Nolanka Group realize that it cannot be choked by others in terms of ore.

They urgently need an ore supplier of their own, whether it is as a stable source of ore supply or as a bargaining chip with the mining monopoly alliance, it can greatly alleviate the Nolanka Group's ore dilemma.

At this time, the Rock City Mining Consortium, which had rich and diverse mineral resources and was facing huge economic difficulties, entered the Nolanka Group's sight.

But it is impossible for the Nolanka Group to help those hateful guys like the Mining Consortium, and the Nolanka Group only needs the mines and does not care about the mining consortium's other factories and real estate and other fixed properties.

So when the mining consortium went bankrupt, Nolanka Group also helped push it forward.

But there is a problem here. Nolanka Group cannot come forward to take pictures of these mines. Because of the existence of the Miners' Mutual Aid Association, the price to buy these mines is actually very high.

Moreover, everyone knows that the Nolanka Group has been short of ore recently. If you participate in the auction rashly, you will easily be vigilantly attacked by other large consortiums and raise the price, which will result in unnecessary additional costs.

In fact, Nolanka Group just needs a stable ore supplier that will not be attracted by the mining monopoly alliance.

In this regard, the Miners' Mutual Aid Association is an almost perfect target.

As a miners' organization that once resisted the Rock City Mining Consortium, the Mining Monopoly Alliance is wary and cannot accept the Miners' Mutual Aid Association.

The Miners' Mutual Aid Association will not join the group of people who once oppressed them.

Therefore, the Miners' Mutual Aid Association will definitely become a staunch ally of the Nolanka Group, and the Miners' Mutual Aid Association will operate the mine itself, directly eliminating the additional cost, which means that it can spend the least money to run the mine.

Of course, this plan was not proposed by any investment manager or executive at the beginning. In fact, the Nolanka Group, like other consortiums, was very wary of the Rock City Mining Consortium at the beginning.

Rock City, a northern city, was not the focus of Nolanka Group's previous development and had no influence in the local area.

The market environment in Rock City after the arrival of the evil god was too complex, and all executives were worried that if they invested in it, they would become stuck in the sea and unable to escape.

At this time, it was Eve who compiled and analyzed it, came up with a simple analysis report, and found the contact information of the Miners' Mutual Aid Association.

After contact analysis and in-depth investigation, both parties finally finalized the loan plan.

Of course, it is impossible to say that there are no emotional factors.

After all, this is a large investment in a completely unfamiliar object in a completely unfamiliar area. If the Miners Mutual Aid Association fails, or there are other intentions, the money is likely to be wasted as previously expected.

.

This amount of money is not a small amount. In the end, it was the old butler Danny who made the decision, and the reason was very simple, 'Master Wei An would like us to do this.'

The loan matter was also completed by Lina, the secretary of the board of directors, who came to Rock City in person.

"Brother, when did you contact Nolan Card Bank?"

At this time, Ivo looked at Witte in confusion. He had never heard of the name of this bank.

"They found it themselves."

Witte replied calmly.

The two of them did not deliberately lower their voices, so Lina on the side easily heard their conversation.

"The information about the Miners' Mutual Aid Association is automatically pushed to us by the system. According to our artificial intelligence calculations, investing in Rock City will be a very cost-effective deal."

Lina explained with a smile.

"What kind of artificial intelligence is so powerful?"

Ivo became curious.

"Her name is Eve," Lina opened her hand, and a projection of a little girl in a white dress appeared.

"This is the anthropomorphic image she designed for herself. She is an artificial intelligence written by our chairman. She has a strong learning ability. It can be said to be the strongest artificial intelligence in the Federation now."

Ivo felt that when the three words chairman were mentioned, Lina would feel unusually proud and excited.

"Hello, Ivo."

Eve, the little girl in white dress, waved to Ivo.

"Hello, Eve."

Ivo waved his hand in response.

He looked at the little girl's projection, and for some reason, he always felt as if this expressionless mechanical Eve had known him before.

He thought about it and felt that it was reasonable for the other party to know him since he was so famous now.

After all, his mecha battles have spread throughout the federation.

I accidentally became a celebrity hahaha.

After saying hello, Eve's projection disappeared.

"How does Mr. Witt plan to develop this new company?"

Lina looked at Witte and asked softly.

"According to the tradition of the Miners' Mutual Aid Association, this should be one,"

Witte looked at the mining consortium building that was gradually turning into ruins in front of him, "a mining group that belongs to all miners."

Hearing his words, Lina was silent for a moment, and then whispered, "It seems that no one has ever walked on this road."

"But someone has to go and take a look, right?"

Witte took out a new piece of chocolate and peeled it apart bit by bit.
