king of the castle

Chapter 409 Financial War

Seeing Roger muttering some strange words that she didn't understand, Bonnie finally couldn't help asking: "What are you trying to do? Are you planning to keep it from me?"

Seeing that the female knight was really anxious, Roger put all the gold coupons into his arms and said, "Let's go, let's go to Master Addison and tell you my plan on the way.【】"

"So...how do you want to deal with the Grand Duchy of Kongtai?" After the two left the Entertainment Complex, Bonnie couldn't wait to ask: "Is it related to these gold coin coupons?"

"That's right, my Bonnie is the smartest." Roger took no time to praise the female knight to calm her down.

Roger's compliment really made Bonnie feel better, she lowered her voice and said, "What are you going to do?"

Roger patiently said to the female knight: "Although the Grand Duchy of Comté is very rich, there must be a lot of places to spend money. Moreover, it is said that the members of the Bordeaux family live extravagantly, and their annual expenses are many times that of the royal families of many countries. So the Duke of Bordeaux must be short of money, right?"

Bonnie now has full power to manage the affairs of Kent County. Of course, she knows that it will cost a lot of money to manage a territory well. After listening to Roger's words, she nodded deeply.

"Now comes the fun part. The Duke of Bordeaux is short of money, but the gold coin coupons he made can be used as real gold coins. What do you think he will do?" Roger said to Bonnie with a smile: "If I were If he does, he will issue more gold coin coupons, and this will solve the problem of lack of money?"

"You mean...the Grand Duchy of Conte doesn't have that many gold coins at all. If everyone takes gold coupons to exchange for gold coins, many people will not get the money at all?" Bonnie said in shock when she heard this: "The Duke of Bordeaux Will you really do this? This is deception!"

Roger chuckled and said: "Actually, there is not much danger in doing this. Everyone believes in the strength of Kongtai Principality and will not exchange gold coins at the same time. You, there are many gold coin coupons in circulation on the mainland, not even in our hands. Are there many of them?"

Seeing Bonnie's pensive look, Roger waited for a while for her to digest what he said, and then continued: "If everyone knows, the Grand Duchy of Kongtai can't cash out all the gold coin coupons issued at all. What kind of consequences do you think there will be? If the Grand Duchy of Kongtai, which relies on commerce to prosper, goes bankrupt, hehe..."

After all, Bonnie is a smart girl, so she quickly figured out what Roger said, and said by analogy: "Are you planning to buy a large number of gold coin certificates from the Grand Duchy of Comte, and then go to exchange them for gold coins at the same time, so as to discredit the Duke of Bordeaux?"

"Bonnie, Bonnie, your biggest problem is that you are too upright." Roger smiled and said to the female knight: "If the Grand Duchy of Kongtai doesn't issue gold coins, these gold coin coupons are just waste paper, we will exchange them for real gold coins Waste paper, the loss is too great!"

"So what?" Bonnie asked curiously.

Roger smiled proudly at the female knight: "Fake it!"

"Is this okay?" Shocked by Roger's bold plan, Bonnie quickly said to him, "Every gold coin coupon has a magic anti-counterfeit seal!"

In fact, Roger had long noticed that there was a magic anti-counterfeiting seal on the gold coin coupons, so he didn't think it was worthwhile to forge [-] denomination gold coin coupons.As for the anti-counterfeiting seal, Roger didn't take it to heart at all.He slapped the gold coin coupon in front of Addison, and only said, "Some people say you can't make the exact same magic seal!", and this small problem was quickly solved.

For a puppet master like Addison, forging a magic seal is not difficult at all.Within a few days, the puppet master had produced exactly the same anti-counterfeit magic seal, and boasted that even the puppet master who made the real seal would never be able to tell the difference between the two.

In the past few days, other materials for counterfeiting gold coin coupons have also been found.In a secret room in the vineyard, the forgery of the Grand Duchy of Comté’s gold coin certificates began in full swing, and a financial war aimed at destroying the economy and credit of the Grand Duchy of Comté officially began!

At the beginning, Roger was still very cautious. He only made a batch of the most common [-] and [-] denomination gold coin coupons, and asked people to go to the Grand Duchy of Comte to exchange gold coins in small quantities.However, because Master Addison's craftsmanship is so good, the forged gold coin coupons are exactly the same as the real ones except for the place where they were manufactured, so they can be said to be real gold coin coupons.Therefore, the process of exchanging gold coins was very smooth, and there was no trouble at all.

With the first successful experience, Roger became more courageous, and forged a huge number of gold coin coupons in the second batch.Even Master Addison, who had no concept of money, felt that this behavior was too much, and shook his head loudly: "No matter how rich the Grand Duchy of Kongtai is, it is impossible to spend so much money!"

Roger didn't care so much, what he wanted was this effect.The counterfeit gold coin coupons were quickly distributed through various channels, and some regular customers on the black market could even buy huge gold coin coupons at very low prices.

The officials under the Grand Duke of Bord who specialize in the management of gold coin coupons found that the recent situation was a bit wrong.A large number of merchants took gold coupons to exchange for gold coins, so that the gold coins in the treasury had been reduced by half.Originally, he also suspected that someone had used fake gold coin coupons to pass the test, but after the court puppet master who made the gold coin coupons personally identified the recovered gold coin coupons, there was no problem at all.

So the official didn't think too much about it. He just thought that these merchants were going to do business in some areas where the gold coin coupon law circulated, so they exchanged gold coins as before.

This can't be blamed on the officials' overcompetence. After all, gold coin coupons are also a new thing in the world of Torenzo. No one has the concept of a run, a financial war, etc., so Roger took advantage of the loopholes.

As time passed, Roger's financial war finally showed its real power.Under the pressure of many merchants holding a huge amount of gold coin coupons, the treasury of the Grand Duchy of Kongtai was finally empty, and they could not even get out a single gold coin.

The Duke of Bord was shocked when he heard the news, and quickly ordered to stop all exchanges of gold coins.This caused great panic. Many merchants brought their gold coupons to the Grand Duchy of Kongtai and asked to exchange the gold coupons in their hands for gold coins.

The Duke of Bordeaux couldn't come up with gold coins at all, which made the merchants dissatisfied and desperate, and the situation of gathering crowds was naturally inevitable.These merchants are not easy to mess with. The large caravans have their own guards.As soon as so many merchants brought their escorts to make a fuss, the protests of the merchants quickly turned into a big riot that swept across the entire Grand Duchy of Comte.
