All the waiters were blasted out, and more than twenty old men, all in their average age of 50, jumped on their chairs and shouted wildly.

The report of the bucket was laid flat on the table, and it recorded the nonsense of the fire, and the amount of money borrowed.

Wine can make these shareholders lose their temper, but it can't anesthetize their analytical acumen. When the report was circulated, everyone saw the bloodshed.

War is war. Maybe the Flowing Fire didn't even realize it, but these old monsters had already foreseen the upcoming changes in the Zhongzhou Continent.

"War... It's war... Ever since the alliance between the Creation Gate and the Chu State, large-scale wars have been extinct, but now... Now, the spark of war has been ignited, and in less than three years it will surely burn the entire continent..."

"Shuffle, reshuffle... Let the power of capital shine in the war, let the magic of money rule this continent, and we will be the final victors..."

"Thank you, Lord Feng, thank you for the information he gave us, let's make a toast to the big shareholder of the wind... Although it is a pity that he did not come today..."

At this time, some shareholders were already crying excitedly.

"It's been a hundred years, it's been a hundred years, and finally the forces of the Awakened have come to us for help. Our capital has finally found a parasite, a parasite that is violent enough..."

"Look at your unproductive energy, this is just the beginning, you can see what happens in the future, I believe that more awakened people will come to seek our help, our career has just begun..."

At this time, an old man with blond hair on the high platform stood up and waved his hand to suppress the noise of everyone.

"I'm sure you've seen the oddity of this report, old friends. Lord Flowing Fire actually asked for 5 million gold coins, and although he had made up countless falsehoods, there was a piece of information that had already revealed his true intentions..."

"That is, he has to train 20,000 elite soldiers... Friends, can you imagine what kind of army is 20,000 elite soldiers built with 5 million gold coins?"

The old blonde man became more and more excited, and at last he even jumped on the table and shouted.

"I can tell you now that Lord Driftfire has definitely mastered a killer weapon that no one knows about. This is a gold-swallowing monster, a monster that only we can nourish..."

"We are the best businessmen in the Zhongzhou Continent, we have adventure genes in our blood, we are invincible gamblers, and we are about to throw out the biggest chips in the history of mankind..."

"Now you tell me what we should do..."

The shareholders, who were anesthetized with alcohol, picked up their glasses and banged them on the table, shouting in unison.

"Bet, bet, bet..."

"Bet, bet, bet..."

The blonde old man drank a glass of liquor and shouted one of the most widely circulated quotes in later generations.

"If Liuhuo wants 5 million, we will give him 10 million, and if he wants 10 million, we will give him 20 million..."

From that day on, this financial empire, which had been suppressed for a hundred years, let out its own roar, but unfortunately, everyone in the entire Zhongzhou Continent regarded this roar as a madman's dream.

The history of Banliangjin is no longer verifiable, and even these shareholders do not know the detailed origins. One thing is certain, though, that the half-tael gold was originally just an alliance of merchants.

The status of the businessmen is at the bottom, they are the moral scum in the mouths of everyone, they are the vampires hated by the people, and they are also the fat in the mouths of the powerful class.

Although they have money, they will never lack the ability to protect their property.

Forming their own army, they are not unthinkable, but no matter how hard they try, they cannot compete with the secular state.

Even if they have overthrown a country and become monarchs. But they soon discovered that they were no longer businessmen, and they soon degenerated into the same group of people they once hated, repeating the same old ways.

They have also funded a certain force in the hope that this growing power will protect them. It is a pity that no power lasts forever, and when it fails, they lose far more than they once gained.

For thousands of years, half two gold has been tried again and again, and failed again and again. Eventually, these shrewd businessmen had an epiphany, and they suddenly realized a truth.

"We are merchants, we are the owners of money, and the only thing we can protect ourselves is money, huge money. And the value of money is not reflected in his own purchasing power, but in his temptation to human nature..."

From that day on, half a tael of gold began to sink underwater, low-key survival in the blind spot of people's sight.

Half two gold with its huge capital reserves, began to support those private financial institutions, countless pawnshops, money banks, businesses have become his customers, and through support again and again, impact again and again, and finally screen out the most loyal to their own system.

Do you want to expand your business? Okay, I'll lend you money. How dare you your tail at me? Good, I'll squeeze you to death.

In just a few decades, the financial system of the Zhongzhou mainland has been completely controlled by half a tael.

Okay, the next step is the erosion of traditional merchants, the price of wool is high this year? You've all made a lot of money, right, I'll lend you money to let you develop. When production increases the next year, I will use a huge amount of money to smash the industry. I will use the blood of countless small merchants to warn those who do not obey.

The weather in Yongning Prefecture is dry this year, and I will buy all the grain at a high price in advance and artificially make it, so as to lay a good foundation for land annexation.

In a word, half a tael of gold will not make any industry bigger, and every prosperity is to provide them with wealth reserves for the next sheep shearing.

The shareholders of Half Two Gold cannot be blamed for being too shameless, because only a fragmented and loose business environment can reflect the value of Half Two Gold.

Everything is just for control, half a tael no longer needs to be profitable, all he needs is control.

And now, the magic hand of this financial empire has finally moved, he wants to use his own power to stir up the political pattern of the world, what they need is chaos, war, and a reshuffle.

And the flowing fire is a breakthrough.

"To support Lord Liuhuo, we not only have to give him money, but we also have to use our resources, as well as our huge mobilization and organizational capabilities..."

"We will send the most astute and capable talents into the midst of the forces of Lord Flowing Fire and help him form the most effective management system..."

"Lord Flowing Fire needs a magic weapon?It's very simple, use our reserves, and if it's not enough, use money to procure..."

"High-level magic weapons are also easy to do, we have money, and some are low-level magic weapons, let's help adults exchange barter..."

"Where are the best craftsmen in the entire Zhongzhou Continent? Where are the best soldiers? Where are the best managers? Even if they are hidden in the sky, we can use money to dig them out..."

"We must use the shortest possible time to make the power of Lord Flowing Fire an existence that can compete with the Great Family of the Creation Gate..."

"We must make good use of this upcoming battle for supremacy and let our power infiltrate the world of the Awoken..."

"One cycle is coming to an end, and another is about to start. Seize these precious opportunities for thousands of years, and let us remain the masters in the new century..."

By this time the old man was drunk, and he stood on the platform and stomped his feet and sang. All the shareholders went crazy and jumped on the table to sing together.

They sang the old ballad of Banliangjinli, and the sound of leather boots hitting the table was to accompany them. The simplest melody and the most simple and straightforward lyrics brought tears to the eyes of these old men.

The song is called "The Magic of Money", yes, it is this limerick poem that has been sung for a long time.

"The world says I'm evil, and I laugh at the world's low eyes. ”

"The sword flashed with astonishing courage, and the charm of gold was unmatched. ”

"The emperor sits on a high platform, and it is always reasonable to drink blood and eat meat. ”

"Businessmen work hard and make a little money. ”

"The profiteers are in charge of the people, and the literati are very talented. ”

"You are too old to send you a beauty, and you will send the field after sending the gold. ”

"The emperor will have no kind, only money. ”

"Awaken the gods and lie in the sky, why are you still engaging in little beauties. ”

"One or two is not enough, it's okay to have a group of wives and concubines. ”

"Who can compare with the fairy wind dao bones, seeing the drooling of the magic weapon. ”

"Who cares about the corpses all over the field, and the magic weapon is the first. ”

"Everyone has greed and greed, and who can answer this question. ”

"Destroying everything and starting over again is still gold to solve the problem. ”

"Millions of years are counted, and gold shines in the cycle. ”

......

The song was sung over and over again, and everyone was tireless. They know that this is the dawn of a new era, and that they are about to see the beginning of a new cycle.

These top smart people in the whole Zhongzhou continent are the first to see the light of the new era. If these people are second in their sensitivity to the changes of the times, then no one can say that they are first.

The carnival lasted until late at night, and the next morning, the carrier pigeon had already flown into the sky and headed straight to the south, along with the carrier pigeon set off with three noble shareholders and a group of business elites who were half two gold miles.

The spring of the flowing fire has finally come, but now he doesn't know at all, he is carefully studying those black iron equipment, and the actual combat drill has finally begun.

Near the edge of the swamp, there was a clearing hidden by the woods, where actual combat drills took place. 500 hand-picked soldiers against 20 Freemasons. All the right-hand men of Drift Fire gathered here.

The second stunned man and the earth monkey plus the muffled thunder were all selected into this team, and now they are preparing nervously.

A complete set of black iron equipment has been distributed, helmets, cuirasses, shoulder pads, leg guards, arm guards, ...... There's even a pair of delicate black iron gloves. The earth monkey counted carefully, and there were more than 20 pieces of protective equipment alone, large and small.

"Brother stunned, help me tie the leather strip tightly, why is this piece of armpit so loose..."

"Brother Stunned, have you worn this kind of equipment before, why do you feel so heavy?"

The second stunned gave him a blank look, "That's so much nonsense, hurry up and take your weapon to go...."

The soldiers who were accustomed to leather armor had enjoyed such high-end equipment, and they were ecstatic to think that there were a few pieces of leather armor inlaid with iron plates.

Unfortunately, the excitement only lasted for a short time, and the soldiers were already complaining.
