Commonwealth of America.

Los Angeles, Bunker Division.

Tyve, who comes in and out every day, as always, as the situation in Europe complicates, the number of wealthy people who hire bodyguards becomes more and more numerous.

S.H.I.E.L.D., with a 100% mission completion rate, is the most trusted institution for the wealthy.

Tyvek of the North American base was relocated overseas in large quantities, nominally as a support division, and the business was adjusted.

As a result, the North American headquarters and branches were becoming less and less staffed, and Tyvek began to become sought-after.

"Boss, we're running out of people. In the office, Hans looked at Li Zitao and said helplessly.

"Transferring people from Vladivostok to put Lao Maozi in charge of the security of the Spanish branch, I think they will be happy to do it. ”

Li Zitao looked at the report in his hand and said without raising his head.

He is more concerned about interests than the current situation, and Spain's recent gold consumption is a bit large.

Although the Armada is history, the legacy of Spain's hegemony remains.

Its domestic reserves of gold are as high as more than 1,100 tons, which is a terrifying figure.

You must know that at the same time, the gold reserves of small RB are only 30 tons, and it is already a modern power in Central Asia.

Following an agreement, the Government of the Republic transferred 200 tonnes of gold to the CBLA via France and into Switzerland.

The CBLA branch in Switzerland has been completed, and the new new vault is finally stocked.

But then the republic dragged on and on, until the events of Fort Ségir and the rebellion in Morocco broke out, and the transfer of gold reserves began again with pleasure.

But what gave him a headache was that the government of the republic was striking a deal with the Soviet Union.

At present, 100 tons of gold have been ordered for various types of ammunition, including aircraft, tanks, artillery, automated weapons, etc.

It is said that this order is not the final plan, and the republic has plans to order 5~600 tons of gold arms at one time to win this war.

As for why the settlement was made in gold, it was, of course, a request from the Soviet side.

Because of the civil war, the Spanish currency was severely devalued, and the Soviet Union demanded that it must be settled in gold before agreeing to aid it.

"600 tons, it's all my money. Li Zitao frowned and muttered.

600 tonnes of gold is not a small amount, and it will affect the status and influence of CBLA in Switzerland in the future.

1,100 tons of gold, Spain could not have transferred all of it to CBLA.

Li Zitao's original plan was 800 tons, and Spain kept 300 tons, and then there was only a grinding of mouths.

But now if 600 tons were paid to the USSR, the second batch of 100 tons transferred by the republic may be the last.

From 800 tons to 300 tons, Li Zitao couldn't stand this grievance.

In comparison, the Germans are much more generous, directly sending 500 million marks, and now the money has been safely transferred to UBP, adding a sum of income to the Li Fund.

"War money is really good. "Considering the current environment in Spain, Li Zitao decided to add a little 'motivation' to Manuel. ’

......

......

In Morocco, a large number of police and troops, under pressure from Franco, took to the streets on the orders of the government to arrest rebels who were causing trouble in the country.

But overnight, these rebels seemed to have evaporated from the world, without a trace at all.

The regions also strangely fell into peace, and the mysterious team that had previously routed 6,000 troops at Fort Segil was gone.

Franco's military staff believed that these mysterious forces were under pressure to hide first, waiting for them to let down their guard and come out again.

But soon this judgment was slapped in the face, and Franco devised one trap after another, and even released hundreds of millions of marks worth of arms as bait for the last time, and was already mentally prepared for the loss of these arms.

However, nothing happened, and everything remained uneventful.

In desperation, those staff officers who were slapped in the face could only think that the other party was frightened away by the three forces of Germany, Italy, and the rebels who had become serious.

Without harassment from the rear, Franco mobilized all his forces and began a new round of war against the Republic, and Manuel was under great pressure.

Madrid, Spain.

Capital, Manuel, who was listening to the report in the office, had angry cheeks trembling and his face turned blue.

"Whether it is the Western capitalists, or the USSR or other countries, they only care about their own interests and do not care about our situation at all.

These damn robbers deserve hell, and the damned FXS, Franco... Damn traitors. ”

Hearing the complaints of his generals, Manuel looked at him indifferently and said, "Go to hell, and now it is we who will go to hell." ”

"How's the talk with the Soviet arms order?" Manuel said, ignoring the general's ugly face and turning his head to look at his adviser.

"The currently finalized order is worth 300 tons, and we are fighting for the most advanced weapons of the USSR, such as the TSKB-26 transport aircraft, the T-32 tank, etc. ”

Hearing the advisor's words, Manuel thought for a moment, raised his head and said with a gloomy face: "Transfer the order for the transport plane to the skunk, I think they will have a way." ”

No matter how large the Soviet Union was, the direct help that could be given to the Republic now was not as fast and effective as that of S.H.I.E.L.D.

The riots in Morocco some time ago restrained Franco's vast experience and allowed the Republic to play two beautiful counterattacks.

Now that the advantage he had just gained was about to be lost, Manuel had no choice but to compromise: "Cut down on purchases from the Soviet Union... Within 300 tons, the domestic reserve remains at 300 tons, and the rest is transferred to Switzerland. ”

Manuel was forced to compromise with the situation, but it was not without arrangements.

In the government memorandum, the amount of gold transferred was recorded at 800 tons, and it is believed that Franco would not let him go easily if the republic failed.

As a politician, how could Manuel not have a back hand.

If he fails, neither the Soviet Union nor the Chinese tycoon will want to get rid of it, and someone will naturally go to them for trouble.

......

......

Greater Los Angeles area, Castle of Dreams.

The castle is lit up with lights and ready for a banquet, and tonight the Lee couple will hold the biggest New Year's party at the castle.

This is Li Zitao's happiest year, with 500 tons of gold reserves, more than 600 million US dollars in market price alone.

Although this gold is 'kept on behalf of the people,' the national reserve gold is easily unused, which means that the gold CBLA can be used at any time.

Using other people's money to make money for yourself is not a good thing that happens every day.

Besides, if the government of the republic really fails, Li Zitao will not admit this account.

The gold that the Government of the Republic had given him custody wanted to be taken by the representatives of the Republic.

It's a big deal to give half to the Federal Reserve or Washington, and I'm sure they'll be happy to take the lead and help them withstand the pressure.
