Chapter 62: Whitewashing

Although Mo Yan said that he wanted to sell the scales of the black dragon, in fact, it was just a joke. Jones, who had been struggling with tears for a long time before agreeing, looked at Mo Yan with resentful eyes all day long, which made Mo Yan feel a lot of pressure. can only coax her with all kinds of delicious things, and finally be forgiven by Jones.

For this financial crisis, after thinking about it for two days, Mo Yan finally thought of a solution, that is, to issue Thunder Cliff City Bonds to raise funds. Bond issuance is a means of financing based on the credit of a group or a state, using a certificate that is sold to the public in the form of a written guarantee and repays the principal plus interest within a specified time.

Generally speaking, the issuer of the bond must have excellent credit and the ability to repay, and the bond can be actually exchanged for money to be recognized by the public. It is often used by the state as a viable means of financing wars and surviving economic crises. Because the state has a high level of credit, most people still recognize it.

Most people regard it as an investment, and on the premise of preserving their existing funds, they expect the interest on the bonds to increase the value of their assets. The craftsmen and workers of Thunder Cliff, because of the high salaries of Thunder Cliff, are mostly wealthy, which makes them have a lot of money, but they lack a kind of institution to protect their property, that is, a large number of banks on the earth.

So in general, the Salts would hide their possessions in their homes and take them out when they needed to use them. And if there is a kind of debt that can link property to individuals, I believe that the people of Thunder Cliff are willing to buy it, after all, Mo Yan has never broken his trust since the establishment of Thunder Cliff, and his credit value is still very high.

It is also a safe way to exchange gold and silver coins, which are easy to lose and in large quantities that are not easy to store, for a piece of parchment. However, new things are not easy to be trusted, and people should still have great concerns about exchanging real money for a piece of parchment, so the operation in this area still needs to be carefully considered.

For example, the SS disguised itself as ordinary people to induce, publicized a lot of information about the benefits of bonds in Thunder Cliff, mobilized the powerful people in Thunder Cliff such as Rayfora and others to buy in advance, and explained the reason for the bond issuance, and pushed it to the Parliament City to declare war. In order to let the people rest assured that the debt of Thunder Cliff is something that can really maintain and appreciate its value.

For the first issuance of bonds, Mo Yan worked hard. Not only did he personally design the style of a bond roll, but he also carved a seal specifically for this purpose, so as to make the bond look as formal as possible.

Mo Yan personally designed the debt scroll, ten centimeters wide and fifteen centimeters long, using a kind of parchment paper that has undergone special treatment, the color is more yellow than ordinary parchment, and it can be tested. At the top of the debt scroll is a simplified bull's head, and in the center is written the words Mo Yan, the city lord of Thunder Cliff, who borrowed xx gold coins from xxx, and then the entire debt scroll is covered by a seal slightly smaller than the debt scroll.

The sides of the debt scroll are decorated with simple lace to make it look quite beautiful. This is already a good thing for Mo Yan, who has never learned to paint. Next is mass production, this time Mo Yan is expected to sell 3,000 gold coins of bonds.

The production of the debt scrolls was made by abandoning the Sartic scribes and using a new method of block printing, which surprised the Sartic scribes in the city and made them uneasy about the insecurity of their profession. The way of engraving printing is many times faster than the speed at which they copied it.

..........................................

While Mo Yan was busy solving the financial crisis of Thunder Cliff, an important speech was also being held in the Council City. After the Speaker decided to overthrow the city council in a coup d'état and crown himself emperor, the council city went into lockdown. Speaker Azela ascended to the upper floor of the castle and gave a speech to the people.

After ringing the castle's bell to remind the Speaker of the Citizens of the City of Parliament that he was about to speak, the citizens who had already noticed the anomaly stopped what they were doing and looked in the direction of the castle to wait for the Speaker's speech.

"Citizens of the Parliament City!" said the Speaker, standing in the only magical facility of the Parliament City Citadel, a megaphone array that was as long as a historical artifact, "Our defeated warriors have returned a few days ago, and although they are very brave, they are invincible to the monster's black dragon, and 1,200 warriors have sacrificed their precious lives for the Parliament City. ”

In the barracks on the outskirts of Parliament City, the soldiers, who had not yet recovered from the defeat, raised their dejected heads and listened carefully to the speaker's words. They all know what happened in the council chamber this morning, and they know the news of their imminent military build-up, and it is now up to the Speaker to explain his revolution.

"But it's not just because of the black dragon. Speaker Azela raised his voice so that his voice sounded angry, "Some of them are still the corrupt councillors of the city! They colluded with the evil monster and were bought by the monster's money!

When I got the news, I was so sad that I couldn't imagine why the legislators, who had been elected by the people, could do such a despicable thing!"

The Salters, who had just lost a loved one, pricked up their ears, and some had even begun to curse the members of parliament they had voted for, and the pedestrians on the street stopped in disbelief at the news, hoping that the speaker would repeat what he had just said to confirm that he had heard correctly.

"The councillors who colluded with the monsters have been imprisoned by me. "The death of twelve hundred warriors will not be forgotten, and I will let that monster and the traitors in that wicked city know that the glory of the Salts is not something they can deceive!

I have decided that the city of Parliament will be expanded by 10,000! From now on, citizens over the age of fifteen will be able to report to the military camps in the suburbs for training, and we will form ten new legions! These new legions will carry the weapons of dragon slaying, and they will set foot on that evil city, and kill the evil black dragon and the evil monsters that built it!

Under the inspiration of the god of war, I, Azela, will be crowned king for the time being! Presiding over the justice and fairness of Elam! I, Azela, will lead the City of Parliament to glory and glory! I will lead the City of Parliament to prosperity and prosperity!"

When the young people in the city heard the speaker's words, they immediately felt their blood boiling, and they rushed to the military camp on the outskirts of the city one by one. In the history of Elam, such a thing rarely happens, all young people who want to make a career will not allow themselves to miss such an opportunity, participating in the dragon slaying is extremely tempting for young people, not to mention that there will be a just war in the council city.

The old men in the city, as well as some officials who held these few powers, looked more and more solemn as the speaker spoke. They weren't as foolish as the young people, especially when they heard Azela announce that he would be crowned king, and the old people's faces were hard to see a limit.

Elamite does not have an emperor and is not allowed to have an emperor, this is determined by the ancient law of Elamite, and anyone who tries to claim the title of emperor will be exiled. Obviously, at this time, the army of the council city has sided with the speaker, the council has also been arrested, and even some people have been killed, and most of the young people have been bewitched by azella, and there is no one in the council city to stop him.

Many people immediately contacted each other after the Speaker's speech, and the Saltts, who loved freedom and peace, would not allow Elam to have an emperor above all the people, and if anyone succeeded, it would be a very bad start, and it would bring about consequences that all freedom-loving people did not want to see in the future.

The people were divided into several classes, and the magnates of the city would be lawless. Taxes and laws will also be decided by one person, right and wrong black and white will be completely subverted, and the people will be squeezed by the emperor. All the Salts were reduced to the slaves of one man, and the night work was paid only a small fee

But fortunately, only the Parliament City is currently controlled by Azela's, and there are many other free cities outside the Parliament City. Once they hear of the changes in the Parliament City, these cities will organize a coalition to come and fight against them, and by that time the Salts, who are ready to resist, will join forces with the coalition to enter it and put an end to Azela's evil intentions.

Maybe it will be a long time, but for the sake of freedom, the Salts don't care how long it is, or how many lives will be paid.

"Very good presentation. Maro's man clapped his palms and praised with a smile after the speaker stepped down from the amplification circle: "Sure enough, you have the qualifications to become an emperor, and I think that many people will sign up for such an exciting speech today to join the new legion you formed." ”

"There can be no doubt about it. Azela laughed haughtily and said, "As a politician, stirring up people's hearts is the most basic means. Now that everything is going according to plan, when will your Maro gear arrive?"

"I've sent someone back to report it. The man shrugged his shoulders and said, "But after all, it will take some time to go back and forth, and it will be delivered in about three months." You can also use this time to train the new army, can't you? even the brave Salts need training to coordinate, and the three thousand gold coins sent by Maro have already been lost. ”

"Get the equipment in as soon as possible. The Speaker walked towards his office and said, "I can't wait to kill that black dragon." ”

"Do your will...... Your Majesty. The man said as he bowed to the departing Azela.
