"We received a disclosure that Mr. Richard, the president of Yuanrong capital who has committed suicide, once asked the financial securities personnel to give the green light for the listing of Yuanrong capital by means of bribery."

"In this suicide note, it is also vaguely mentioned that the current incumbent finance minister is also involved."

"Before the broadcast of the program, we checked that there were similar cases in the past decade. There were more than 200 cases involving the transfer of interests between gold certificate personnel or Finance Department officials. The finance department officials received benefits and allowed some enterprises that did not meet the requirements of the Empire to obtain certain qualifications or go public successfully."

"This is not the first fraud around us, because there are at least hundreds before it, but it will not be the last fraud, because the chancellor of the Exchequer is still in office."

"We don't know who gave them such courage. As long as we give them a little benefit and money, we can ignore the interests of the country and the people and trample on the dignity of the law."

"The exposure of Yuanrong capital case makes us realize that we live not only in the sun, but also in the shadow."

"We don't know whether there are more enterprises with fraud process and huge problems that have obtained some qualifications and even listing qualifications in this way."

"I suggest that our government, our emperor, conduct a comprehensive review of the enterprises that have been listed, so as to avoid more 'Harmonious Capital' around us and protect the safety of our property."

"If this matter has the opportunity to go deep into the investigation, I would like to, on behalf of myself, hope to find out the last and return the truth to the people..."

The chancellor of the exchequer turned off the TV expressionless. He rubbed his fat face and sighed heavily.

"It's very troublesome now, you know?" he looked at his confidants, subordinates, and some officials and nobles known as the "finance department" in the room.

"The imperial financial index fell another 3% today." he looked at those people with a bad face, but it was not "severe".

He leaned back in his chair and looked at the white crystal chandelier on the ceiling. After a while, he continued, "in fact, these reports, the attacks of those people on me, will not cause irreparable harm to me."

"Your Majesty trusts me, which is the key, but I am gradually losing this trust now."

"The financial index is an indicator of this trust. If it continues to fall, it means that I will lose more points until I completely lose power."

He straightened his head and looked at everyone's face in the room for a moment. Until he saw everyone, he said, "as long as I don't lose power and your majesty still trusts me, I can guarantee your future."

"If I have a problem and am abandoned by your majesty, even if you have no accident, you can't escape liquidation in the end."

His tone was slightly funny, and there was a trace of anger, "do you hear what they call you?"

He sneered and said, "finance department official, this is you!"

"I don't ask you what to do, just ask you to pull up the financial index as soon as possible."

"This is our last chance..."

The chancellor of the exchequer thought it was the last chance. As a result, early the next morning, the gaffra financial index fell sharply.

The reason for the sharp decline is from the TV program last night.

The host of the TV program suggested a comprehensive audit of all federal listed companies and enterprises that need some financial qualifications to sell financial products. This sentence has greater influence than everyone thought.

Early this morning, major financial and political newspapers published this news and this sentence. Some newspapers obviously controlled by aristocrats put this sentence on the front page.

Those people who came from all over the country were also angry. They spontaneously demonstrated outside the chancellor's residence and workplace. In addition, other countries were also reporting the matter, which eventually caused a kind of market panic.

Retail investors have no ability to resist risks and have no access to internal information. The only thing they can do is to understand what happened and what to do in the future through newspapers.

But newspapers basically have a political background. They only say what the aristocrats need them to say, or what they can cater to the readers.

As for the truth and even the truth, it is impossible to appear in the newspaper.

The sudden change of the situation makes many people unable to understand what happened, but it also makes people instinctively realize that a huge storm is brewing.

As an ordinary person, the best way to fight the storm is to hide in the cellar.

Not just themselves, but their money.

Financial stocks howled, retail investors cashed out and distrusted financial stocks, so that the financial index continued to decline without much resistance

In a luxurious room not far from the imperial Royal Exchange, Lynch has moved from the "marginal man" to the middle seat.

Around him sat some imperial nobles, all of whom had one characteristic: youth!

The oldest of them is in their thirties and under 40, while the younger ones are only about 20.

These young nobles did not like the atmosphere in the Privy Council. The older nobles always looked down on these young people. They used the methods of "before me" and "if it was me" to teach them.

But they can talk to lynch very well. First, they are all young people. Second, these young people are far more receptive and faster than those old people.

When the old people still look at the world with a hostile attitude, the young nobles have begun to accept the culture from some federations and other countries.

Whether they want to prove that they are not against their parents, their ancestors are poor, or just want to find some people with the same ideas, or they want to get rid of the current "dilemma", these people quickly gathered around Lynch.

Lynch is like a magnet, which firmly adsorbs them. Of course, it has something to do with the rumor that he can make money very much.

"Every point is a change of tens of thousands of numbers..." Lynch sat in the middle of the crowd, his hands pressed on the armrest of the chair, and his fingers crossed naturally and not so closely.

People turn their eyes with his every word and every expression.

"So I told you that making money is a very simple thing. Just fill out a few lists and quietly watch the continuous growth of the numbers in your account."

Lynch's self-confidence was very attractive. Not far from him, a count was staring at him with adoring eyes.

The count was only 19 years old. He was the youngest nobleman in the gavra empire. His father died of illness. He was still very young. With the help of his mother, he defeated many relatives, brothers and sisters who peered at the title and became a new count.

After inheriting the title, the good days have not come. Not all nobles are very rich - there are actually two concepts of money here.

One refers to money, money that can be used and buy things, real money.

There is also a general concept of wealth, such as a house and a car. These things can also be said to be money, but they can not be used as currency to buy and sell things.

Most of these things have "stories" and inheritance, and some of them are even called "family assets", which also means that the ownership of these things is not in the hands of someone. It is not a simple choice to sell ancestral property and realize it.

Moreover, for the aristocrats who value face very much, selling ancestral property is tantamount to telling others that their family is dead and will be finished. The aristocrats who love face are willing to starve to death after returning home, rather than lose points in front of others.

The little count sits in a villa, manor or even a castle, as well as various valuable art collections, but he has no money in his pocket.

It is not just the little aristocrats who are troubled by this problem. Many aristocrats are facing this embarrassing situation, even the royal family and the country. Otherwise, they will not want to default on the war bonds.

After such a long time, less than a week after he knew Lynch, he had a lot of money, a lot of money he could really spend.

Looking at Lynch, who was not a few years older than himself, the little count's eyes were full of worship.

Teenagers at this age are like this. They are easy to immerse themselves in a kind of worship of their peers, but despise their elders who have richer life experience and closer relationships.

"Mr. Lynch, how much time do you think we have?" asked a nobleman in his thirties.

He has a decent appearance, but he has no money in his pocket like the little nobles. In fact, most of the nobles gathered in this room are "poor nobles".

Lynch thought seriously, "there is still half a month, no later than the end of November."

The noble nodded to thank Lynch for his answer. At the same time, he asked a question, "Mr. Lynch, how do you judge?"

They called Lynch "Mr. Lynch" at Lynch's own request. Here he is a baron. If they call each other titles, it will be bad for his image——

Respect for the "weak" is always only temporary!

Mr. Lynch's name evades this problem well, and both sides can accept it.

Lynch answered this question without thinking for too long, "because the Empire does not allow this storm to go on for so long, the decline of the financial index can actually be seen as a political struggle between different aristocratic groups."

"This pressure will not last long. For us, for those ministers and for your majesty, stability is better than chaos."

"When the corner drives out the winner, it is the end of the game!"
