Chapter 639: The Empress's Smile

"Completely destroy the currency market left over from the former Soviet Union?"

Gary Vickers, who was standing next to Douglas, couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, wondering if he had just had auditory hallucinations.

As a newcomer to the fringes of Gringotts' core, Gary Vix does not have any real power for the time being, mainly following Douglas as an acolyte and elf apprentice, helping to deal with and record some trivial chores.

But even so, it was well aware of the consequences of that order given by Elena.

In order to disrupt the financial markets of the non-magical world as quickly as possible, both the Gringotts Wizarding Bank and the Destiny Consortium have invested nearly ninety percent of the non-magical liquidity in that land, which is equivalent to the amount of money raised by several Gringotts in their heyday combined.

Elena's order is to zero out the capital chain, industrial foundation, and monetary credit that should have become the cornerstone of finance in a very short period of time, and to draw wages from the bottom of the entire middle and upper financial markets built on them.

This is no longer a regular business game, or a financial war.

Gringotts Wizard Bank, to be precise, in the history of goblins, there has never been such an unreasonable case of capital regulation and control, it has always been the loser who lifts the table, but there has never been a reason that the winner takes the initiative to lift the table.

"Your Majesty, let me confirm once again, are you sure you still have to carry out the second phase of the plan?"

At that moment, Douglas bowed and asked in a deep voice what Gary Vickers was puzzled about.

"As your appointed Chief Financial Officer, I must remind you that if we choose to join the ranks of plundering the ruble spread, with the Providence Consortium plus the market share that Gringotts now controls, we have a good chance of being the one who will profit the most. At the same time, in the whole process, the American goblins, the Americans, and the capital ...... Even all the powers, including the Muggle governments of the former Soviet Union, will be our help. ”

"But if we choose the second option, we will be the enemy of the world. ”

"Not to mention whether we can make all the capital side suffer a heavy blow, but the vast majority of the money we have invested in it will surely come to naught, become fertilizer scattered on that land, and disappear into every corner. ”

"At the same time, because we have broken the tacit understanding of the capital market, we may be encircled and suppressed. ”

"The loan chain collapsed, the capital chain was broken, and the value of money went to zero...... The ripple effect of these circumstances will force all investors to come together in order to protect themselves and kill us as much as possible before everything collapses. ”

That's what it takes...... Is it an enemy of the whole world? and it is still surrounded and suppressed?

Gary Vickers swallowed and looked at the Fairy Empress not far away, with some concern.

This was the first time he had attended a plenary meeting of Her Majesty the Empress, and before that he had always thought that the monthly meeting should be similar to the previous Gringotts weekly report, that is, to read the data and report on the work...... Who knows, starting from the first issue, it is to directly destroy a huge range of financial markets.

Suddenly, the young elf finally understood what Elder Leos had said earlier.

In any era, half a step ahead is a genius, and a step ahead is a madman...... But if the madman has the power to turn the whole world upside down, then the moment she starts to act, it is the moment when the demon king is born.

And now, he is witnessing the birth of a demon king.

"On the financial battlefield, there is no such thing as a win-win outcome, it is just a fairy tale written on paper, and there is only one way to end a war - lose both sides and then ...... Winner takes all. ”

Elena, who was sitting on a high prayer platform, quietly observed the reaction of the crowd around her, and replied flatly.

Like a nun chanting a formal psalm, Elena gently stroked the heavy Bible beside her, casually swept over the restless leprechauns sitting behind Douglas, and continued with great seriousness.

"Don't forget that I promised to make traitors pay the price, as the Old Testament says, a tooth for a tooth, an eye for an eyeβ€”this is the most basic truth in this world. ”

During the Cold War, the Soviet Union and the United States, which were located at the two levels of the world, actually had many similarities.

And the most interesting point is that in fact, in Elena's time, the US economy was actually on the verge of a bubble collapse, and if the former Soviet Union had held out a few more years, the seemingly prosperous capital economy would have collapsed.

In other words, the premise of the future hegemony of the dollar is that it must completely digest the flesh and blood left by the former Soviet Union.

On the other hand, the American elves who betrayed the Gringotts Wizarding Bank can only draw capital enough to become independent through this unprecedented and possibly only geopolitical catastrophe in human history.

Otherwise, the American goblins, who lack a global layout, independent coinage rights, and a complete industrial chain, will not be able to grow into a force that gets along with the American Magical Congress on an equal footing, and they will lose the capital to sit on the negotiating table, and will either completely become the puppets and pawns of American wizards, or disappear into the social structure of the wizarding world.

Elena knew quite well that the only thing that could pose the greatest threat to her in the future would be the country on the other side of the ocean.

Therefore, even if she temporarily sacrifices the almost low-hanging benefits of the Destiny Consortium and the Gringotts Wizarding Bank, she will ruthlessly pit all the guys who try to use the clumsy means of capital operation to make a profit - the value of the virtual economy and bubble warrants is all based on the measurement of money, and when money ceases to exist, all theories and techniques will be meaningless.

And in the ruins, the only thing that can survive is the real physical industry that exists in the real world.

If the situation continues to deteriorate, and even the physical industry begins to erode, the scientific researchers of the former Soviet Union who recorded and created this industrial knowledge will be the last spark and the most valuable wealth of this land.

Before anyone knew it, the best of them had now arrived at Hogwarts.

Elena didn't explain much about the follow-up, and shook her head with a smile.

"Enemies of the world? No kidding, we ...... It's the real world. ”

Ever since the Gringotts Wizarding Bank, the vast potato fields, the decades-old light industry production plants in the former Soviet Union, and the world's top talent today – money has no meaning.

"Understood, Gringotts will follow your will, Your Majesty. After two months, the ruble will completely lose its qualifications as a tradable currency, and everyone who plays with capital in front of you will fall into the depths of hell. ”

Douglas replied solemnly, bloodthirsty pleasure rising at the corners of his mouth.

As the former first head of venture capital at Gringotts, he really enjoyed the feeling of being in the financial field, watching the endless numbers converge into invisible blades, tearing apart enemies little by littleβ€”and there was no doubt that only the great fairy queen Elena Kaslana would give him such opportunities and rights.

In response to Douglas's answer, Elena just smiled calmly, did not respond more, and turned her attention to Kurt Mayer, the overseas head of the Destiny Group, who had been standing next to the goblin.

Kurt Melton understood what she meant, stepped forward slightly, and began to report.

"At your request, we have completely scaled back our activities in non-magical countries such as Russia and Ukraine. ”

"During these months of activity, American wizards and Muggle agents from various countries have had friction with us, but the organization has not been exposed, and all clues and key entries will point to [Mystery Man] and [Dark Lord]. In addition, the evacuation has been carried out for more than half of the time, and the vast majority of comrades can be evacuated at any time, except for the wizards who are used to protect key people. ”

Like-minded working partners?

What an apt term.

Grindelwald raised his eyebrows noncommittally and glanced at the white-haired balls sitting beside him.

This little guy's thoughts spread really quickly among the saints, and as a first-generation Dark Lord who had gathered half of the wizards of the wizarding world with his own hands, Grindelwald knew very well what a terrifying power this way of thinking could burst out.

As for the little minions who carried the black pot in the process, it didn't matter.

In any case, the remnants of the Death Eaters' encirclement and search for Voldemort's hideout, intent on destroying the wizarding world, appeared on the table of the International Council of Wizards last month, and was regarded as an extremely important international cooperation agenda.

The British Minister for Magic, Cornelius Fudge, had already issued a warning to the wizarding community at the meeting.

[Although the activities of the Death Eaters have been temporarily eliminated in the United Kingdom, the possibility of Death Eaters wandering abroad is still not ruled out.] 】

"Good, stay safe...... If necessary, call the Hyperion directly. ”

Elena nodded lightly and said in a soft tone.

For this group of "veterans" who experienced the first wizarding war, and after decades of testing, the grandfathers and grandmothers who still do not forget their original intentions, she can be said to be extremely relieved and respectful.

If it weren't for the fact that her team hadn't grown up yet, and time was too short, she didn't want to let these old people take on too many front-line combat tasks - perhaps, she should try to give some young wizards with potential a try.

Elena's eyes swept over Dumbledore, her fingers tapping thoughtfully on the countertop.

For example, the young members of the Order of the Phoenix, the prefects and student council presidents of Hogwarts, and the star students of the school next door...... I don't know if I can trick some people into coming back with this reason.

Without much thought about it, Elena quickly gathered her thoughts and looked at the house-elf standing on the far left, as if he had never experienced such a formal occasion, and the little one seemed to be so nervous that he was about to faint.

As for what the Hogwarts house-elves were about to report, she actually had a vague understanding of it.

If nothing else, the response and ripple effects caused by those events are likely to be an extremely important historical point that will completely change the social landscape of the traditional wizarding world - for which she did not even go to Harry's birthday party.

Elena narrowed her eyes, a lovely and innocent smile on her face.

"Let's talk about it, why is there a serious loss at Hogwarts Round Face Fat Chicken Express......"
