When Bai Hua and the other Lords saw the Four Seas Bank sweep in close to five million in such a short while, it would be a lie if they said they were not envious. Them Lords looked glamorous, but in truth, their coffers were exceedingly pitiful.

Even asking them to directly take out two hundred thousand gold would be pushing it.

Naturally, Ouyang Shuo would not treat them badly. After all, using the Four Seas Bank to tie the interests of the entire alliance together had been his goal. He smiled and said, “Lords, why don’t all of you invest two hundred thousand in exchange for 1%? If you have financial difficulties, the two hundred thousand can be changed to low-interest loans, how about that?”

“Good idea!” Bai Hua said.

In the alliance, all members were equal, so Ouyang Shuo definitely could not just give shares to the Lords.

Following which, they needed to discuss how to adjust the organizational structure of the Four Seas Bank.

New shareholders joining in meant that the governing system of the Four Seas Bank had to change.

First, on a management level, they needed to set up an administrative council. This council would act as the highest level decision making organization, taking charge of all important decisions.

Ouyang Shuo personally took charge and took up the role of the director.

The eleven Lords in this meeting all became members of the board. Feng Qiuhuang and Xie Siyun, who were the representatives of the Lords and the guilds, were pushed up to deputy directors.

For the beginning structure of the bank, Ouyang Shuo did not follow the modern day bank structure and set up a Board of Directors. Instead, below the council was immediately the management level.

Meng Zhida would act as the head of the management level, and he would be in charge of the daily runnings of the Four Seas Bank.

Apart from that, Ouyang Shuo also announced that Shanhai City would build an elite force to take charge of the safety of the various branches of the bank.

This force would be known as the Jinwu Guard.

Shanhai City would shoulder the military expenses for the Jinwu Guards.

“To develop the Four Seas Bank into the most influential bank in China and even the world, our setup must be big and our foresight must be far. Be it Lords or guild leaders, anyone who is willing to be friends with the Shanhai Alliance is welcome to join,” Ouyang Shuo stated.

Since he decided to make the Four Seas Bank massive, Ouyang Shuo did not wish for the matter to be a joke.

After the meeting ended, the Four Seas Bank started up branches in the nine imperial cities to attract the spare cash of the adventure gamemode players.

As they say, a strong dragon cannot suppress a local snake.

For the Four Seas Bank to gain a stable footing in the various imperial cities, it needed to gain the support of the local guilds.

If not, they would be faced with many problems.

Till date, the influence of guilds, especially in the imperial cities, could not be overlooked anymore.

Ouyang Shuo had never looked down on others.

Within the alliance, Jingdou, Jianye, Luoyang, and Dali were temporarily alright. However, they lacked reliable allies in the other five.

Hence, Ouyang Shuo needed to expand the friend circle of Shanhai City.

For the following people to invest into the Four Seas Bank, they did not need to be allies of the alliance. As long as they recognized the progress of the bank and agreed with the obligations, they could become partners.

Ouyang Shuo was eager to gain allies. Moreover, apart from the above considerations, he had to take into account the factor of Di Chen and the others. He believed that the moment the Four Seas Bank started running, Di Chen and the others would not sit still and watch on.

At the very least, Chun Shenjun’s Huitong Bank would be a competitor.

In terms of ability, Chun Shenjun had many professionals. In terms of reserves, the Yanhuang Alliance were not any worse than them.

In terms of reputation, they were only a little weaker than Shanhai City.

If the Four Seas Bank could not jump out of the fence which was the Shanhai Alliance, they would definitely lose in this competition.

“Quanzhou’s Streamer, I can take a shot.” Bai Hua said.

Before entering Earth Online, Bai Hua was a representative figure in the esports circle, and she had a vast circle of friends. The guild leader of Streamer Jun Yilao could be considered her old friend.

Bai Hua did not complete her words, as she was just trying to be careful and safe.

“Great!” Ouyang Shuo was delighted.

“I can try Chengdou’s Laojun Temple,” said Xie Siyun.

Similar to Bai Hua, Xie Siyun was also one of the pinnacle existences in the esports circle. In terms of influence, how could she be lower than Bai Hua?

“Nice!” Ouyang Shuo was on cloud nine.

If everything went well, there would be six out of the top 10 guilds investing in the Four Seas Bank. Guild players were the biggest weakness of Di Chen and the others.

The remaining Jianqi Zongheng, Eighteen Horsemen of Yanyun, and Jin Yi Wei were all loyal to the Yanhuang Alliance. Even if they wanted to invest, Ouyang Shuo would not allow it.

All that remained was the neutral Blood Evil Mercenary Guild.

As the top guild, it definitely had the ability to exclude itself. Be it Ouyang Shuo’s good intentions or Di Chen’s temptations, he had rejected it all.

However, Ouyang Shuo was not prepared to let him go this time.

“On the side of Blood Evil Mercenary Guild, I have confidence.” Ouyang Shuo smiled and announced this shocking news.

“Really?”

Xie Siyun and the others were astonished. Everyone knew that Blood Romance was famous for being stubborn. The moment he decided on something, there was no way to change his mind.

“I’ve never spoken false words,” Ouyang Shuo replied.

Hearing this, the others did not ask any more.

Bai Hua and some of the others had been in contact with Ouyang Shuo for a long while. As a result, they could roughly feel that he still had many trump cards in his hands.

For example, Xie Siyun still could not understand how Ouyang Shuo knew of the Rattlesnake Mercenary Group, and how he had quietly digested them.

“Wuyi’s body is covered with a mysterious veil.”

Bai Hua had spoken such words during the first gathering.

“Apart from the guilds, should we consider recruiting some Lords?” Feng Qiuhuang asked. She first thought about the members of her branch alliance.

One had to mention that the strategic eyesight of Feng Qiuhuang was a little stronger.

“Naturally we can.” Ouyang Shuo replied without any hesitation.

In truth, the moment the Four Seas Bank started running, it could absorb almost tens of millions of reserves. With the six territories of Shanhai Alliance, they could not completely finish it.

One must know that these reserves all needed interest payment. If they just placed the money in the vaults of the bank, it would be a massive waste. To Shanhai City, it would be a burden instead.

Hence, a successful bank could obtain savings, while loaning money out at high interest rates.

Only with that could the bank use the price difference to profit.

“Before which, the territories that are close to us are all the ones we need to target. Apart from the territorial alliances you have all created, you can choose a few good ones to attract.” Ouyang Shuo explained.

Normally, the people who wanted to borrow money were commoner Lords.

In this round of exchange, they were the biggest victims. One must know that the moment the Four Seas Bank reached out, they would definitely receive the recognition of these Lords.

Ouyang Shuo’s plan was slowly becoming clear. Bai Hua could not help but remark in awe, “Wuyi, you’re playing a big round of chess!”

“It’s not me, it’s us.” Ouyang Shuo corrected.

“Haha!”

Laughter broke out through the entire meeting room.

At that moment, everyone felt more and more confident about the future of Shanhai Alliance.

The dark clouds that had gathered in the 2nd year were all swept clear.

One could foresee that once the Four Seas Bank truly started running, they would attract a massive amount of funds. At that time, the territories would not need to worry about low-interest loans.

With the help of such a large sum of funds, the various territories would definitely improve a level.

This was also one of Ouyang Shuo’s goals.

However, Ouyang Shuo’s current goal was not limited to that.

Just like Bai Hua had remarked, Ouyang Shuo was using the Four Seas Bank as a chessboard to play a round of chess. However, this game of chess far exceeded the knowledge of Bai Hua and the others.

As the world’s best Lord, Ouyang Shuo’s foresight had planned till ten years later.

To the federation, Ouyang Shuo’s rise in the game was a total anomaly. Meanwhile, Gaia was naturally delighted.

However, among the higher ups of the federation, not everyone liked this dark horse. For example, Di Chen and the others, and the families behind them. None of them had a good feeling toward Ouyang Shuo.

In the end, Gaia’s wishes were like the decrees from god. However, when they reached planet Hope, the real speaking rights were still in the hands of the federation.

Hence, Ouyang Shuo could not foresee whether they would pull some tricks if his achievements far exceeded what the federation could accept. He did not know if they would try to directly kick him out.

On this point, the current Ouyang Shuo was powerless.

As a person who had reincarnated, he needed to plan ahead.

The Four Seas Bank was undoubtedly a great chance. In other words, Gaia’s achievement value exchange had given Ouyang Shuo a good chance to grab.

Bai Hua and the others definitely had not thought about this point.

Ouyang Shuo’s end goal was to use the Four Seas Bank to obtain funds and tie in as many adventure gamemode players to Shanhai City.

Both would prosper together or fall together.

The moment Shanhai City was damaged, a large portion of the China players would be hurt; this was something the federation could not afford to allow.

In that case, the federation would have to be wary against Ouyang Shuo, and they would not dare to use some behind the back schemes. As for outright competition, Ouyang Shuo was never afraid of that.
