Jean woke up from her sleep and looked at the two girls sleeping on her right and left side. His pride as a man was very satisfied when it managed to make Charlotte and Selena drown in pleasure.
Both of them fell asleep without wearing any clothes. Ah, their blanket position is not right. Jean immediately corrected the position of the blanket. Tonight it was a bit cold, so Jean made sure that the two women were not cold.
Jean put her clothes and pants back on. As usual, he had to infiltrate out like the previous nights. Mar and Nina were already waiting for him at the headquarters.
Quietly, Jean leaves Charlotte's room after kissing her and Selena.
Jean's footsteps could not be heard by anyone. His breath could not be felt by anyone else. This was one of Jean's most proficient abilities, [Stealth].
This technique he developed while he was in another realm. The enemy he was fighting at that moment had extremely sharp senses. They can read the slightest movements and detect the changes in energy that occur around them.
That's why he developed this technique. He manipulated the energy that was around him to make himself disguised. You could say, Jean as if fused with pure natural energy. That way, the enemy won't detect Jean's presence.
The [Stealth] technique that Jean used this time was the lowest level of technique. With this, no one can see, hear, feel, or smell its existence.
Jean walked through the darkness of the night. The strong gust of night wind made his robe wave. The mask with a white wolf pattern made him look intimidating. Even if the patrolling knights could not see it, they would still feel a strong sense of intimidation without knowing where it came from.
But somewhat in dearest, tonight there is not a single knight in his territory. Naturally, they might be scared. There was still a fishy smell of blood hanging in this area. Tonight, the northern part of Saint Georgia City was just like a dead city.
Jean's headed for his main base. He passed the brothel they just took yesterday. A short while later, he reached his destination and disabled the [Stealth] technique.
"Welcome, Jean. Let's sit. As usual, I've made you a warm drink!"
"Thank you Mar. As always, it tastes delicious."
Mar helped Jean take off her robe. He also voluntarily placed a wolf-patterned mask in white on the hanger on the door.
"okay! Mar and Nina. I have a new assignment for you. Sit down, we'll talk about it tonight."
Mar and Nina sit in front of Jean. Mar looks enthusiastic while Nina, well, she looks cold. His face was always like that.
"As you know, I don't intend to be complacent once we get back everything we have. Instead, I want to make White Wolf the dominant player in the underground world.
"And for that, I need a lot of people. Whether it's a man who can fight to keep our territory from outside threats, or a man who's an expert in financial affairs, business, or business, and others to ensure the assets owned by this group can be managed properly.
"And for that, I need one of the most important things! Mar, what do I need?"
"Eh? That's of course it's."
"Really! For all this I need money. Mar, how much money do we currently have?"
Mar opens his notes again. He wanted to tell Jean but was very embarrassed.
"We only have 2000 Van gold coins left. I'm not sure if all this money could sustain our group's operational costs going forward."
Uh, 2000 Van gold coins? That's more than Jean thought! Well, he thought, after what had happened to this group all along, at most they only had 100 Van gold coins left in their treasury.
Then Mar informs him that the money is the result of being hoarded by the previous leader and found by Mar and Nina in the basement of the headquarters.
"That's a pretty big amount. Mar, Nina, we're gonna use that money to develop this group. I've been thinking about the development plan. It's all here."
Mar and Nina read the file that Jean put on the table. First, Jean wants to fix the brothel business. During this time, when the place fell into the hands of the Black Horse, everything became completely unkempt.
Let alone paying attention to the quality, the people of the dark horse even make the women who are there as slaves of their lust for free.
For this reason, Jean planned to make the White Wolf brothel the best and quality place. Starting from renovating the building.
Jean also plans to categorize the women based on age, visual appearance such as body and face, and experience.
In addition to the brothel, Jean also wanted to develop a bar owned by the White Wolf. Their fate was the same as that of a brothel. The bar that only sold low quality alcohol because its wine cellar had been snatched away by the Black Horse.
Even the workers were not paid well so many resigned. As a result, the place was now a rickety hut with no one interested in coming to it.
Because of this, Jean plans to renovate the bar as well. In addition, Jean will also pay some people to work and add variety to the menu.
To be honest, this is a profitable innovation. Although the results were not instant, in the long run, this would bring profit to the White Wolf. But that's not the problem.
"We can use the money available to do all this. But there's another problem, Mr. Jean. We do not have a short-term plan to make a profit. If this keeps up, maybe we can go bankrupt."
Jean nodded at Mar's complaint. That's a natural thing. Jean knew that too. That's why he came up with another plan.
"Just calm down, I've realized that and have prepared another plan. We'll 'borrow'."
"Eh, borrow? You mean in debt? But to whom? Is it in another group? There's no way they want to do that. Even if they wanted to, they would definitely impose a very high flower. Mr. Jean, I don't recommend it."
Jean shook her head. That's not what he meant.
"Well. Of course we won't borrow from them. Instead, we're going to borrow on our own members?"
"Eh, you mean?"
Jean took a blank piece of paper and wrote something on it. After that, he affixed his official stamp.
"This is a debt. Simply put, I will sell this paper to every member of the White Wolf. The price of this paper will vary. Starting from fifty Van copper coins, ten Van silver coins, and one gold coin.
"Those who buy this paper will get their money back within a three-year period at three percent interest. That way, they would definitely buy this debt because it was tempting."
Mar doesn't really understand what Jean's talking about. But he understood the big line. In essence, whoever gave the money to the White Wolf, then they would benefit. But Mar doubts that. They want to give their money voluntarily.
Jean knows what Mar is thinking. She could also see the doubt on Nina's face even though she wasn't speaking daritadi.
"Well, I didn't say they had to do that voluntarily."
"Eh, that means...."
Even Nina finally made a sound.
"Yes, I'll force them to do this."
Jean smiled abominably. A smile that made the cold creep into the backs of Mar and Nina. Jean is a person who can control the fear of others through the power she has. He could easily get what he was aiming for.
But Jean wasn't that bad. He kept his promise. Maybe he will force all the members, but he will also return the money to them along with the bonus when it is due.
"In addition, I have another assignment for you two. Look for traders who have gone bankrupt. Ah, but those who went bankrupt because of the conspiracy of his rivals or others. Not those who go bankrupt because of their own insolence. After finding them, bring them before me. The deadline is three days from now."
Mar and Nina nodded. They wanted to complain but seeing Jean's seriousness, they decided not to convey it. Jean is not anti-criticism, but both do not want to kill momentum.
Jean was really serious about making the White Wolf his card. This is just the first step. Jean is moving towards the beginning of change.
