How To Survive as a Crazy Prince - How To Survive as a Crazy Prince chapter 104

“The biggest contributor had your name, Sir Ivan.”

Said Byte, raising his glasses with his middle finger. The light reflects off the glasses and sparkles terribly.

“… … Who are you?”

“This is my account. He is a very capable kid.”

Ivan glared at Byte with a displeased expression. But when I glared at him, as if asking me to say something, he forcibly straightened the wrinkles between his eyebrows.

“Right. Hey guys, stop the strange slander. It’s the first time I’ve heard of such a thing.”

“In fact, the transaction history remains. Do you still not know about Carte’s work?”

“Ka, Carte?”

At the mention of the word carte, Ivan flinched and reacted.

“Ahhh. There was a family name and ties to that guy. It’s a company that makes cards and games, right? When it comes to socializing, proper play is also important.”

I didn’t know if there had been an exchange before, but Ivan confessed himself. play with each other

“If you don’t end it with play, the story will be different.”

I got into the story. Ivan looked at me in a cold sweat as if he was being interrogated.

“You don’t know what happened to Carte yet?”

“… … What happened?”

I raised four fingers.

“Four fingers are gone. Sloppy, and all at once.”

And dig, he said, slicing with his finger. Blood drained from Ivan’s face.

“Right, Katyusha? It was great work.”

“Actually, I didn’t intend to go that far, but the knife worked better than I thought.”

“Now, wait a minute. What are you talking about? Are your fingers flying? Are you kidding? Is it a metaphor?”

Ivan asked with a pale face and an awkward smile. Totally scared.

“I was gambling in the basement of the sacred knight academy. You were punished by me personally.”

“And, indeed… … .”

As if he had intuition that the place to escape was slowly disappearing, Ivan’s expression darkened. Now, not even a millimeter of the bluff from when it first appeared remains.

“And I looked into the manufacturer of the gambling machines that were piled up in that basement… … . I never thought that the name of someone I knew would come out there.”

I let out a deep sigh as if I was truly sorry.

“I don’t think there are people who are investing the proceeds from supplying weapons to the military to something like the casino industry.”

And he looked down at Ivan with full contempt.

“… … .”

Ivan looked away and was silent. Even in the cold weather, I broke out in a cold sweat.

“Yes, since it is a promising industry, isn’t the profitability good?”

“Don’t you know that gambling is illegal in Iron Blood?”

“Eh, entertainment, as… … . Let’s call it a fun industry. A new era, not just a casino… … .”

“It will all be shut down before then. Even now, my colleagues are happily torturing Carte. Tell me where the casino is.”

“Is that so?”

Ivan replied in a crawling voice, as if realizing that taking off the pretense would backfire.

“It’s embarrassing, so I don’t intend to reveal it on the surface, but this scandal that the iron-blooded arms industry and gambling had such a close connection… … I can’t get enough of it.”

“… … .”

“Well, I have no intention of revealing it on the surface. Let’s think about how the future negotiations will turn out, huh?”

When I said it with a refreshing smile, Ivan smiled dryly, saying ahahahahaha.

“Now let’s talk about numbers in earnest. Byte, please.”

This completes the preparation of the atmosphere. The rest depends on how bytes do things.

“Do you mind if I ask you a few questions, starting with the casino investment, Sir Ivan?”

“okay. Feel free to ask.”

Ivan accepted Byte’s question with a relieved expression.

But Ivan didn’t know yet at this time. that this is the beginning of hell.

Byte’s question, which at first began with a polite tone, was,

“What kind of judgment is that? Are you going to throw your money down the gutter?”

It slowly started to intensify.

“Ugh, uhm. Is it like that too? I thought it would be okay to outsource to some extent, but… … .”

“Do you understand that what you are subsidizing is a standard firearm? What will you do if something goes wrong?”

“No, it’s not a good thing to be worried about problems happening. Let’s think positively!”

“That’s not positive, it’s stupid and pointless.”

Basically, with a frown, and occasionally clicking his tongue, Byte constantly pressed Ivan. He kept questioning the clumsy handling of the work and brushed it off.

“… … Are you serious? If it’s a joke, I’ll say it’s not funny at all.”

“It must be a joke, no way. A sane person wouldn’t make that kind of investment.”

“I will ask you one question. Are you making a fool of me for not being noble, or are you really a fool?”

There is no up and down for Byte, who has started working in earnest. He is the one who makes the professor run out of the classroom by pouring out abusive language.

“Come on, come on. After all, aren’t you a commoner? A little polite… … .”

“Is that important now?”

Sometimes, Ivan looked at me with an expression as if he was about to cry. Of course, he flatly ignored it. self-employed

“I thought I was wrong when I invested the proceeds in an illegal casino, but I didn’t know you were spending it in such a mess. It is a good example of corruption in the defense industry itself.”

“Even so, isn’t this gun industry promising? Isn’t that the goose that lays the golden eggs? Even if you look like this, you’re making a decent profit, huh?”

“You have to know how to maintain the goose that lays the golden eggs to use it. If things continue at this rate, you can clearly see them tearing up their boats because they need urgent power in a few years.”

“Ugh, ugh… … .”

Ivan, who had been hit with excitement, lost his words and collapsed. He looked like a job seeker who had been torn apart by a pressure interview.

“I thought so, but it turned out to be a lot messier than I expected.”

“ha ha ha… … . No face… … .”

In the first place, Ivan was only famous in the social world, but he was by no means an aristocrat who was good at handling money. After all, the reason why I did well in the social world was because I spent money. He is not a talented person who can properly invest.

“You’ve been busy with the knight academy, so you’ve ruined things while you’ve been neglecting it.”

“Ha, but isn’t this my investment in the first place? Thanks for the advice, but… … .”

“Your investment?”

I glared fiercely at Ivan, who was about to end the story.

“Are you saying this is your investment?”

“Well, then whose investment is it?”

“Don’t be funny.”

“Ah, I don’t know why you’re doing that all of a sudden… … .”

Following the bytes, I shuddered with the expression of Ivan on the verge of crying.

“At first, it felt strange. Do you have the ability to push out other nobles and invest? On the topic that finances are staggering just by hitting a sword.”

“That, that’s because I thought this opportunity was worth taking a chance on… … .”

“I don’t even have to think about how you guys got the investment.”

I sighed. And he looked straight into Ivan’s eyes.

“Did you sell my name?”

“… … .”

Ivan kept his mouth shut and avoided his gaze as if it were the right track. I can’t seem to think of anything to justify.

“Didn’t you talk about investing under my orders? Otherwise, things couldn’t have happened so quickly. It wouldn’t be strange if an investment war broke out.”

“That, that. that is… … . Who did you hear from?”

“It is a simple reasoning.”

In the original work, the only factor that Ivan, who was unable to get involved in this kind of thing and fell into prosperity, is a personal relationship that is not with me. You don’t even have to think deeply.

“I must have said the same to the second generation. Did you talk about the fact that you will temporarily proceed with the work in the form of your own investment? The two generations would have accepted it because it was annoying.”

“… … That’s right.”

“Then ask again. Where in the world is your investment in this case?”

“… … .”

As if he had nothing more to say, Ivan lowered his head and let out a deep sigh. I hate everything now, I want to go home. It was the expression that said that.

“Well, I can’t say there’s nothing wrong with not paying attention because I was so busy. It’s easier for me to do it than for other nobles to invest.”

“Oh, yes! That’s right! I also have that mindset… … !”

“Then let’s talk properly about profit sharing.”

Ivan, who had regained his vitality for an instant, hardened again.

“Oh, and you still remember the story we talked about earlier, right? Remember that there is nothing you can’t explode if you’re wrong. Casino thing.”

“… … .”

And it became a gloomy image.

About 10 minutes before the second plane arrived, we barely finished adjusting the profit distribution.

“Me, Crown Prince. After all, isn’t this a bit too much? … .”

“The investment must have already been sufficiently recovered? Thank you for not taking it away at all. Even this amount is too much for you.”

“Don’t be greedy for things you can’t handle properly. What kind of shame do you have when you have delegated more than half of the management?”

“Ah, ahahahaha… … .”

The result was a great success. Even the amount I won as a lump sum while happily pressing Ivan with Byte was more than 10 times my previous savings. Because the amount is so large, it is almost impossible to feel it.

‘This makes me feel like an idiot for worrying about my financial situation until recently.’

In this case, the virtue of Byte was great. If I had been alone, I would not have made such an appropriate deal, even if I threatened. I realized once again the importance of putting talented people in the right place.

“By the way, Ivan, let’s ask one more before the second generation arrives.”

“What else? I don’t have any more information to spit out now… … .”

From noble mtl dot com

“Do you know anything about Parabellum?”

If you are a well-known Ivan in the social world, chances are good that you know him. No, you will know for sure.

“It’s Parabellum, of course I know. Aren’t you my rival?”

“rival?”

Calling them rivals was unexpected.

“This time, even in the casino case, he followed right behind me. In the end, the task of making that gambling vending machine or something was taken from that side… … You must be taking a huge loss by now. foot.”

“I don’t know who you’re in a position to laugh at, but I can sympathize with you saying you’re ugly.”

“The misfortune of others is more comforting when I am having a hard time. Anyway, it seems that the prince doesn’t like them either. They’re incompetent guys. Even with the introduction of standard firearms, we fought fiercely.”

Was there a fight that I didn’t know about in the process of introducing standard firearms? It was an unprecedented story.

“No matter what I bring, the level of firearms in the Azmash workshop cannot match, but those guys are ignorant of the lobby.”

“I’d like to hear more about that.”

“It would be easier to hear the details from the two generations who are just coming.”

At the place where Ivan pointed his finger, two cars in their usual work clothes were just getting off the carriage.
