Catastrophe Card King

Chapter 724: Chapter 236: The Birth of a Future Business Tycoon_2

Leonard Churchill suddenly realized, “Oh, I see.”

If Leonard Churchill had known the unspoken words of Miss Anne, perhaps he would have understood why he, a hundred years later, received a letter.

Because meeting such criteria, one might not find a match even in a hundred years.

Since it was a hundred years ago, there was no need to avoid the arrest warrant at all.

Leonard Churchill said directly, “Miss Williams, you can call me Leonard.”

He gave his name.

He had also noticed a problem.

Back then Lew Williams’ Great Ivan Shop had opened in Sinless City quite early, and if Vera Williams had really been looking for him for a hundred years.

If she knew his name and appearance, she should have recognized him the moment he appeared on the arrest warrant in Sinless City.

Not to mention others, with the capabilities of Great Detective Robin, Leonard thought it shouldn’t be hard to find him.

But it seemed that she did not find him through his name or appearance.

That meant there might be some unknown special restrictions involved with this time travel.

If he really was going to travel back, these hypotheses would be confirmed.

Vera Williams blinked her crystalline eyes and said, “I knew the name ‘Mr. Sunny’ was strange…”

But she didn’t mind.

Using a pen name for writing letters was normal.

She seriously said, “Mr. Leonard Churchill, you can call me by my name, or ‘Anne’.”

Leonard Churchill nodded.

As the two talked, he didn’t stop eating, voraciously consuming his meal.

The carefully prepared dinner was even more lavish than before, with many rare ingredients that possessed Extraordinary Traits.

This was greatly beneficial to his body’s recovery.

Watching Leonard Churchill devour the roast turkey that was larger than the platter, Vera Williams blinked and said, “Mr. Leonard Churchill, how can your body contain so much food…”

After confirming his identity, there was no need to be overly polite in conversation.

Moreover, she was merely curious without any intention of offense.

There was no need to hide this, Leonard Churchill said, “My body needs energy for recovery. It’s related to my Professional Sequence.”

“Oh.”

Vera Williams listened and obediently didn’t ask any further questions.

After all, the Professional Sequence involved combat power weaknesses, which was a very private matter.

…

“Miss Williams, how big is the Rose Chamber of Commerce now?”

“It’s doing rather well… it’s expanded about… thirty times since the last time I wrote to you. But we’re mainly popularizing in Edge City, and in big cities and Dragon City, we only have small branches. After all, the high-end markets are monopolized by established commerce guilds. As you suggested, our Rose Chamber of Commerce is now focusing on the commoner market…”

“Yes, that direction is correct. With the vast population of the Federation, ninety-nine percent being commoners, as long as you can grasp that market, the future won’t be any less promising.”

“I really have to thank you, Mr. Leonard Churchill. After all, the Rose Chamber of Commerce owes today’s success to your guidance.”

“No. Miss Williams, you have done exceedingly well.”

“Mr. Leonard Churchill, do you think there are still areas for improvement for the Rose Chamber of Commerce… Oh no no, you’re too modest. Your suggestions and vision are far more impressive than those of the old-fashioned predecessors…”

“I don’t know much about business operations, just some immature ideas. Selling goods is just a basic business mindset, but the ultimate is in the banking and financial systems… If you control the issuance of banknotes, that’s real wealth control…”

“But only big banks can print money, right? Almost every Lord has their own bank…”

“What I mean is, we could establish a ‘Federal Reserve Bank’… And the ‘Gold Standard’ model has many limitations. In the future, we could consider some alternative methods… For example, resources. The best resources in the Federation are various rocks and minerals, which definitely can’t be completely monopolized, but we could monopolize some special and essential ores. Like Mithril, Green Copper, Red Iron… these extraordinary materials. If you make those mining magnates use your issued currency for these ore transactions, and in the long run, you would have actually taken control of everything…”

“My goodness, I hadn’t thought of this! Oh, Mr. Leonard Churchill, your vision is truly… so far-sighted. My family has been in mining for hundreds of years, still a naive ‘Mine Owner.’ I could discuss this with my grandfather when I return. It should be feasible…”

“Another thing is controlling public opinion, which is also crucial. What I mean is, if conditions allow, you could establish your own press group or acquire mainstream media to control public opinion. Sometimes, newspapers can even sway the Federal Parliament’s decisions…”

“Ah… I hadn’t thought of that either. I thought newspapers were just a way for the nobility to pass their time reading…”

“Then there’s Mechanical Technology, which is also a future trend that cannot be underestimated; however, technological advancement is inseparable from talent. Right now, the Federation’s education covers only the Upper class society, but in fact, there are many talented individuals among the commoners. If you can start by selecting and sponsoring some promising talent, in the future, they will certainly bring reliable, loyal technical members to the commerce guild…”

“Mmhm.”

“Of course, all this depends on you having enough political power and possessing a sufficiently strong self-defensive force. That way you can ensure that the money you earn won’t be plundered by others. At that point, you might need to hold some parliamentary seats… This can also start by forming relationships with potential future parliamentarian families. As I know, many parliamentarian families are not rich, and sponsorship is a good approach…”
