Chapter 18 Holding Money and Observing the Heart

The spacious hall, elegantly furnished, and the waiters come and go.

It is a hall full of luxury and history, and in the center of it is a long conference table, which is spotlessly clean and contains several decorations.

At this time, the hall was divided into two large parts, and in the corridor on the edge, in addition to the waiters coming and going, in the middle of the hall, there were several well-dressed men, talking and laughing.

"Roosevelt, do you have any thoughts on this gathering of bankers?" One of them, with a full head of white hair but a relatively young face, who seemed to be only middle-aged, said: "I heard that the glow-in-the-dark governor suggested to the cabinet that we should disclose the property to the public, and asked the lawyer to intervene in the inheritance of our family property, and I cannot accept either of these points in any way." He said he couldn't accept it, but there was a mocking smile on his face.

The person known as Roosevelt was an old man who looked to be fifty or sixty years old, with his silver hair combed back and a serious expression: "Feller, in the last few conflicts, there have been some contradictions between you and me, these can be put aside, but those proposals of the luminous governor are absolutely intolerable, the black box operation is the foundation of our existence, there is no darkness to cover, even if the stupid people have a low IQ and are easy to fool, they will see something, and that will be very bad for us." ”

On the side, a tall and thin man nodded, pushed the black-framed glasses on the bridge of his nose, and said with a smile: "Yes, wars are swarming everywhere, this is great news, you should have made a lot of money, how can you waste your energy on boring rules, the rules are made by us, and the purpose of making rules is not to restrain yourself, that moonlight governor is too naΓ―ve, I doubt it, he has such a mind." How did you get the glow-in-the-dark bank? "He's got black hair and looks like he's in his forties, which is relatively young in this group.

"Jason, you deserve to be a rising star, or do you understand it." Another person spoke, this is a fat-headed and big-eared man, about fifty years old, "The Luminous Bank wants to use the power of the executive to gain the authority to command the Anglo-Saland banking community, which is a great threat, because the basis of the existence of our banks is actually the kingdom itself, and the powerful in the cabinet and the House of Lords. In fact, there is no effective check, and in the process of Anglo-Salan expansion, we already owe a lot of money, and I think the cabinet may also want to use the Moonlight Bank as a weapon to reduce the debt in our hands. ”

Suddenly, everyone else became vigilant.

Roosevelt asked directly: "Zaben, what do you mean?" ”

"Ladies and gentlemen," the fat man known as Zaben glanced at the crowd. "Actually." I think history has come to a crossroads, and a storm is brewing in the resonance of industry, the artillery of war, and the chaos of politics, and where this storm will erupt, although it cannot be predicted, once it will erupt. It will sweep across the entire Stim continent, and I think the upper echelons of the kingdom must have seen this possibility, so they are preparing to eliminate some unstable factors, which is one of the key points. It was the government debt, so they chose a weapon, which was the Moonlight Bank. ”

"So, what did the Moonlight Captain invite us over for today?" Feller straightened up and asked with a wrinkle.

"He's not just inviting us, he's got a couple of other banks here for a conference." Roosevelt said lightly, a little essence flashed in his eyes, "Speaking of which, that Bourbon from the Firth Bank will also come over today, I heard that their partners in the Low Countries have been co-opted and divided by the Moonlight Bank, and the financial affairs there have come to a standstill, and the war has spread, this time the losses can be described as heavy." ”

"Firth Bank?" Hearing this name, several people present sneered slightly.

Then Jason said: "Blackwater Knight, just be an honest knight, or get a few businesses, just make a little money, like the Thorn Knight, the Wisdom Knight, stay in peace and stability, and often solve the problems of the people, isn't it very good, we have peace of mind, they also have a good reputation, but the result has to wade into troubled waters, if it weren't for the Moonlight Bank, I'm afraid they wouldn't understand." ”

"You can't say that," Feller shook his head, "Faith Bank is at least not as unscrupulous as Moonlight Bank in its actions, and it is also in accordance with the unspoken rules of our industry, but the background is fearful, and the Blackwater Knights tend to live a long life, which is a threat to us, and suppression is okay, but like Moonlight Bank, it directly uses secular power to sabotage and forcibly win over their partners, this is breaking the rules, you all know, we have money and a little power, but we are with one kingdom and another." Compared with the country, it will always be weak, so they must be made to obey the rules and regulations, otherwise it will be the beginning of the disaster, have you forgotten the tragic situation in the Middle Ages? ”

Everyone frowned and shook their heads.

The people present, more or less, all have the blood of the Hebers, an ancient people who originated from the meeting place, but thousands of years ago, they lost their homeland and have been wandering among the countries, but perhaps because of the infection of cultural inheritance, or it is really the influence of racial blood, so that the Hebers are very good at business and have a sensitivity to money beyond ordinary people, so since ancient times, they have held a huge amount of money.

It is a pity that in an era when there are no sound laws, a people without roots, but with a lot of wealth in their hands, often means danger, means destruction, like a baby with a delicious food, walking among a group of hungry people.

The few people present, although they are not blackwater knights, do not have a lifespan of hundreds of years, they can only learn about that dark age from books, but in the period of the medieval feudal lords, the tragic experiences of those ancestors, and the wealth they have accumulated so hard, as long as they are guilty, they can be deprived of everything.

Of course, there are also some lords who will use the method of "borrowing money" to get wealth from their ancestors, but the date of return is often far away, and some lords have just borrowed money on the front foot, and the "creditors" will be expelled from the country under various pretexts.

It is precisely because of this tragic experience that the Hebrews will gradually unite, and their wills will gradually transcend borders and territories, ignoring law and morality, and becoming entangled into a huge organization, and the banking industry is the place where the tentacles of this organization are most concentrated.

"What an interesting people."

Looking at the brief introduction in his hand, Sun Dao walked down the long and luxurious corridor, his clothes had changed, no longer the military uniform belonging to the Blackwater Knights, but a well-fitting suit.

After turning a corner, Sun Dao put down the information, and under the guidance of the waiter, walked into the luxurious hall, and saw Roosevelt, Feller and others. (To be continued.) )
