Chapter 156: The Possibility of Triggering War
"Why are you fooling you?—you know, we're ...... But grasshoppers on the same rope!" said the skeleton helplessly, "hello...... Why should I fool you?—not to mention...... What's in it for me to fool you?"
"That's right!" the old man nodded in agreement, but there was still a trace of doubt, "But...... How can you be sure that your method will work?"
"Why not?—you just haven't properly recognized the power of your Cole family!" the skeleton snorted and said slowly, "Do you think you...... The top powers who suspect you of hiding in the Eastern Lingyun - are they really just afraid of the financial threat you pose to them...... That's why you didn't directly break into your Cole family to take people?"
"How...... Isn't it?" asked the old man, puzzled. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
"Fear of your gold offensive is one thing, but the other is ...... But it's because of the economic status of your Cole family!" The skeleton said with some hatred, "If it weren't for the economic status of your Cole family itself, let alone Dongfang Lingyun, your Cole family alone could cause economic chaos within their forces...... It would be enough to kill your Cole—but...... Why didn't they do it? Not to mention...... You are still a major suspect in the possession of Dongfang Lingyun, they ...... There should be more reason to do it!...... They still don't intend to completely tear off their faces and destroy your Cole family, but ...... Have you ever thought about this roundabout way of tempting and provoking you through the clan forces around you, but always hiding yourself behind the scenes...... And for what?"
"Could it be...... Isn't it just because you're afraid of my Cole family's gold coin attack?" the old man asked hesitantly.
"Of course it's more than that!" said the skeleton affirmed, "if it's really just because of the financial crisis—I think ...... With their status as 'big guys', they will not feel helpless about this......! If they really need gold support, there should be quite a few wealthy businessmen and chaebols who are more than happy to give generously! After all, ...... This kind of opportunity to show them is a rare opportunity!"
"Then you say...... Why on earth did they have such a ...... for me, a small Cole family? Belch...... What about fear?" asked the old man, puzzled.
"It's easy!—that's because...... The economic status of the Cole family!" The skeleton frowned and pondered for a while, and then expounded his opinion, "As I said before, now the offensive and defensive trend of the Cole family has quietly changed - with the gradual growth of the Cole family, it should already be the number one gold family in this continent! It is precisely because the Cole family has so many gold coins, as long as it is properly guided, it can completely influence the economic flow and development trend of this continent, and properly lead a ...... A war on a grand scale!"
"War?--how can this be?" The old man was startled, and hurriedly waved his hand and exclaimed, "Are you crazy?--War??Can that thing be caused casually?You know, that kind of thing, careless...... But it's going to bring harm to the whole of humanity!"
"The dog jumps over the wall when he's in a hurry, let alone a person?" the skeleton sneered, very disdainful of the old man's horrified expression, "At that moment when the life and death of the family are at stake, how many people are there...... And the great 'group interest' of all mankind is taken into account--I think...... In that case, not many people would even bother to think about this 'complicated' question, would they......? From ancient times to the present, why are there so many people who deceive teachers and destroy ancestors, and forget their ancestors?"
"You...... You...... ...... you" The old man stared at the skeleton, opened his mouth, and his trembling right hand swung straight at the skull, trembling and pointing at the skeleton, but he didn't know how to speak.
"Before they are sure of a hit, I think...... They're not going to do anything rashly against your Cole family!" The skeleton glanced at the old man coldly, and said indifferently, "So, it is because you have been indulging in the fear of those top forces in the past that your judgment of the current offensive and defensive situation has been so skewed - it is precisely because of this deviation that you have used the stupid and useless method of 'sending money to the door'!" I believe that as long as you have a clear understanding of the current situation, according to your means, they will definitely come to the door obediently and beg you to support them! You must know that the current Cole family is no longer the family that used to need other people's 'charity' to barely survive, on the contrary, the current Cole family...... It has long grown into a golden family that has mastered the economic lifeblood of the entire continent! For those top forces, the Cole family ...... It's still somewhat threatening!"
The old man was silent for a long time, and then he said with some hesitation: "That is the case...... Then why do you talk about waging war? -- you know...... War...... Once it is up to my Cole family to provoke the strife of the human race on this continent, then ...... My Cole family will become the sinners of mankind through the ages!"
"I didn't really let you start a war, I just scared and scared them!" the skeleton glanced at the old man and said with some amusement, "I think...... When the time comes, there will be forces that will come out to stop this 'farce' - for example...... The 'Village of the Brave' you mentioned earlier is likely to appear among such dissuasioners!"
"That's right!" After the old man heard the words "Brave Village", he immediately felt like a big stone in his heart had landed safely, and said with a long sigh of relief, "I want to ...... At that time, they should have come forward-although I don't have a good opinion of them because of Dongfang Lingyun's affairs, but ...... I have to admit that the 'Village of the Brave' ...... Indeed, he plays the role of 'savior' in this human world!" )
