123 Episode 28. Black Label Union #3(1)
A month has passed since the Lyon guildmaster declared an all-out war on Black Label Union, and he opened a shop in Black Label himself.
In the meantime, Lyon’s guild members, who followed the guild leader to Black Label, opened banco shops in the Holland area one by one and began to gradually threaten the existing banco vendors.
The Banco vendors in Lanstad, who were only sucking their fingers, trusting only the union representative, who was once a notorious pirate, could not just watch the Lyon force spreading as fast as cancer cells, so they ended up in a group to visit the Union representative.
“No, Warren. Trust me, what is this? Didn’t you say you were going to kick them out right away?”
“Yeah, you didn’t rant in front of us!”
“Those motherfuckers are taking all our guests!”
“Shouldn’t we also come up with special measures of our own?”
“Or let us adjust the interest to our liking! If you do this, you will lose all of your existing customers! We don’t even have to live!”
Warren Dragoon, who was in charge of the union representative, felt a throb in his head as he looked at the banco vendors belonging to Union that had been inherited.
‘No, why is Ismail still leaving them alone? What are you waiting for?’
Even at this moment when Union Banco vendors are clamoring for help.
The only thing the Union CEO was concerned about was Ismail’s hidden intentions.
“Come on, calm down.”
The union representative raised his voice to calm the banco vendors belonging to Union who came to visit.
They were immediately pushed to the edge of the brink and had no intention of retreating easily.
“Don’t do that, take action right away! You are not our representative!”
“No, if there’s no way to get rid of it, you can do it with the power Warren is good at!”
“Where the hell did you go when you pirate!”
Then the Union representative, who had not heard of it, got up from his seat and pulled out the huge pirate sword he was wearing around his waist.
“Let’s see these!”
The banco companies belonging to Union, who were attacking the Union representative as if they were going to eat the president of the Union at any moment, retreated all at once.
“Who knows as a hogu dick! Everyone do it in moderation. I’m not the only one under a lot of stress because of them.”
The Union representative, who showed his temper once, sits down with a rough nose.
A banco trader, who was trying to find his own way of living, took a step forward and began to swear at him.
“If there is no immediate solution. Then let us adjust the interest on our own.”
Perhaps it was an unreasonable request, the Union representative glared at him with sharp eyes.
‘What kind of bullshit is that guy talking about? Why touch interest? That’s our money line.’
Seeing that his gaze was not very good, I felt something like this.
It’s such an unkind gaze. How could he not know that he had dared to speak out towards the vicious Union CEO?
But it was a matter of life or death for him.
“Because you are tied to a union called Union and cannot adjust interest rates according to market conditions, you will lose all of your guests to the Lyon forces in Holland.”
Then, the CEO of Union, who did not even listen to the request, asked bluntly.
“If you are going to adjust the interest rate on your own, why are you in Union? Just go out and do business on your own.”
“If you don’t belong to the Union, you can’t do business in the first place, so what do you mean!”
“So what are you complaining about now?”
he said sarcastically.
“No, Warren. It’s not that I’m complaining right now, I mean, let’s live somehow. If you keep doing this, you will all starve to death!”
A few banco vendors who agreed with that statement all began to speak out together.
“you’re right! There’s nothing wrong with what he said! What can I do with interest right now? Nine out of ten customers who actually leave, all leave for interest.”
“Where is that? There is no charge for depositing gold coins there. We don’t even charge gold coins for storage, but we pay interest on deposits, so what kind of madman would keep giving us gold coins?”
He continued.
“It’s a game that shouldn’t be played in the first place. Shouldn’t we at least follow their ways to fight them?”
Then the Union representative snorted and watched.
“Hey, these people are really crazy. What, lower interest rates? And no gold storage fees? haha… … Such crazy.”
The Union representative, who raised the giant body, pointed at everyone with his finger.
“You have such foolish thoughts! There’s still the sound of death. Doing things their way would end up kicking ourselves out of our planned profits. Why are your thoughts so short?”
Union CEO continued.
“As we all know, lowering interest rates would be detrimental to us. And when we withdraw from the business that used to pay gold coin storage fees, aren’t we throwing away even that profit? How can you do such a foolish thing?”
A banco trader came forward to refute that statement.
“So what is the result now? Now they are taking away all of our guests, even our existing ones. If we leave it like this, all the banco vendors in Lanstad will see only Paris!”
“Right! Even now, I’m only looking at Paris!”
“Take some measures! I am not a representative!”
To calm them down, the Union representative said.
“Heh heh, wait for that.”
The Union representative also scratched the back of his head, probably frustrated, and raised his voice in annoyance.
“Anyway, this floor is under the jurisdiction of the Ismail family, not me, the representative of you. So I’m not in a position to do anything about it.”
“Then what the hell is Ismail doing? We look so dry! What have they done so far?”
“Oh, well! They all have a will, so why not just stand still?”
“What do you mean freeze to death! It looks like we’re going to dry out right now!”
Some banco traders who agreed with the words of a certain banco trader raised an angry voice.
“If all of us here die and they move, what’s the point!”
“How long are you going to trust Ismail? They don’t even look like they’re moving!
“It’s already been a month! If Ismail had moved, that unscrupulous Lyon Guildmaster over there should have been dead before!”
“Isn’t this also giving up on Ismail? I guess I’ll just leave it alone.”
“No way.”
Then a banco dealer told me about a rumor I had heard at first glance.
“There is such a thing among the rumors floating around. The Lyon Guild says they’re pushing the second prince this time. If that’s true, isn’t it a somewhat probable story for the Ismail family to condone here?”
“I heard it too. There are rumors like that.”
“I heard it too. No, he wasn’t the first prince, but he wasn’t the 3rd prince who was originally going to push him, and he said something crazy about pushing a certain second prince.”
It wasn’t that the Union representatives didn’t hear about the rumors either.
“No, who the hell believes that crazy sound? I should have listened, but what kind of fucking hot pants are the Sinclairs? Leave them alone.”
“No, really, then what do you think?”
“These people. Because it can’t be… … .”
The Union representative, who had a wrinkled expression, didn’t seem to have anything to worry about.
‘Damn it. I’ve heard rumors like that.’
A rumor that I tried to ignore because it was so bullshit.
However, if that is true, the lack of movement in Ismail so far can be explained to some extent.
‘No, it is. But, even though we, who gave money, have become like this?’
“We are Ismail’s money chain. This is a fact that no one can deny, but do you think the Ismail family will cut my money line with their own hands?”
A certain banco trader, who was beating my chest, rebutted it as if it sounded pathetic.
“Then it looks like you have found a new money line! Where are we going to pay? Anyway, to support the 2nd Prince from the Lyon Guild is saying that he’s going to eat with Ismail, not Sinclair! Then all the silence on Ismail can’t be explained!”
A shadow fell on the face of the Union representative, who could not respond.
‘this… … Something like the smell of someone else’s feet smells just like that one. Really?’
But he still seemed unwilling.
‘Still, it was the original money line we had. Do you want to throw away such money and form a collusion with a new one? It’s been a long time since I’ve been with the Sinclair family, so I can’t believe it? This is also very strange.’
Then his subordinate Joseph, who had been silently watching the situation, approached him and began whispering to him.
“Dr. Warren, I don’t think that’s possible at all. It’s suspicious that the Ismail family has been silent until now.”
At those words, Union CEO wrinkled his expression.
“Then what do you mean they abandoned us there?”
“Not that. If it’s a dogfight between the two tame dogs anyway, wouldn’t it be possible to quietly watch from the sidelines?”
“dogfight? No, it’s still the dog we raised. Are you going to put up a fight with someone else’s bastard and just watch this?”
“Who knows? Are you planning to tame the bastard who won the fight again?”
“What about the other person’s owner?”
“If you’re a dog that leaves the house, what would you care about? You’d think I’d just lost it.”
“What?”
“Think about it. A bastard who left the house had a fight with another bastard, would you mind?”
“Still, you’re a cunt you cherished, so you just leave it alone? And if I take him out to the hunting grounds, he’s still a good guy, right?”
“It looks like he bit the owner and ran away.”
“This bastard has a hole in his mouth. Who told you to talk your way?”
“If you go off topic… … sorry. I’m just here to give Prince Warren a little bit of advice.”
“Are you talking about a dog? It’s noisy and I’m going over there. Don’t scratch my nerves or anything because you’re talking nonsense.”
“yes… … .”
Interacted with the departing subordinate, the Union representative came to me and looked at the banco vendors belonging to Union, who were shouting.
Angry, they came to him and shouted to him to make a way for him to live.
‘I’m so tired that everyone can’t eat me. After all, there hasn’t been a single quiet day since they came.’
Before joining the Union, he was the captain of the infamous pirate ship that sailed the seas.
A world where betrayal and beatings were commonplace.
In a place like that, I dared to say that my senses, who had survived all the antenatal and prenatal events, said… … .
‘You seem too tired of living on a peaceful land. If I had been to the sea, this would in all likelihood be the smell of my feet.’
“What… … Not sure, though.”
When he broke his luck, everyone was quiet, waiting for his next words.
