Chapter 2470

For the first time, His Excellency the Governor felt what people often call "dizzy and dizzy".

As a great nobleman in the upper class of the empire, from the moment he was born, apart from dealing with his brothers and sisters, he didn't need to worry about other things at all.

Even if he had to deal with those brothers and sisters, most of the time it was his personal staff who advised him.

He only needs to choose a suitable strategy, then arrange people to execute it, and then quietly wait for the results.

If you succeed, you will naturally be happy.

Failed?
He can fail many times before deciding who will inherit the title.

And even if he fails completely in the end, as long as he bows his head in time, he will still continue to be active in the aristocratic class of the empire with titles such as "Brother of the Great Noble" or "Cousin of the Great Noble".

As long as some bottom line is kept, the family will basically not kill all their brothers and sisters like the royal family.

And this is one of the biggest differences between the aristocracy and the royal family.

He has never been so angry in his life, except for the anger of being deceived, his face was slammed to the ground by that damned Mr. Edward, smashed to pieces!

Two days ago, he not only used his niece as a tool to win over that liar, but also praised Mr. Edward as an excellent businessman in front of many nobles, and even said that he would become his family!

Thinking of this, His Excellency the Governor's face turned redder than ever before, even redder than when he peeked at the maid taking a bath for the first time!
He looked at the housekeeper, his eyes seemed to be able to spew fire anytime and anywhere.

"Find him, I want to see him come back to me alive, don't kill him!"

The housekeeper owed his back and left the room. A few minutes later, the violent organs of the entire province began to act.

The police, military police, and even the investigation force have all acted!

They were searching for all traces of connection with that Mr. Edward.

The Governor then made another phone call and told the person on the other end of the phone to suppress the spread of the news as much as possible.

Once the news of Edward's escape spreads, the situation will become even worse!
The nobles don’t have much money anymore——

The money here refers to money in the true sense, Federal Sol.

In fact, the nobles are still very rich, their art collections, their gold, their jewelry, those are all money!

But these wealth and "money" are two different things.

It is a matter of course that the nobles of Penteo have Austrian dollars in the bank, and they will not exchange all of them into federal sols before the war begins.

So when the Austrian dollar is depreciating wildly, their monetary wealth is also shrinking wildly.

For example, His Excellency the Governor, this time he took out almost 1000 to [-] million federal soles.

If converted into Austrian dollars, there are about 2000 million or so.

Before the devaluation of the Austrian dollar, these currencies can be easily exchanged for about 7000 million to 500 million federal sols.

But now, it is worth 1000 to [-] million, and it was exchanged from the bank for the sake of him being the governor.

He doesn't have a lot of cash in his hands now, and this scam has directly dried up his cash pool!

He can no longer come up with "big money" figures, and even 100 million federal sols are difficult to come up with now.

Whether it's Gefra or Penteio, the sale of assets will always be one of the symbols of the decline of the nobility.

If it is not the last moment, His Excellency the Governor is not willing to sell the assets. This will make other people in the family think that it is a stupid decision to make him the patriarch of the family!
If these news leaked out now, it would definitely cause a big disturbance.

The most important thing is that he and his family will lose the ability to seize opportunities during this huge social system change!
After hanging up the phone, he returned to another room with a sullen face.

As soon as he walked into the room, a nobleman said with a smile, "Just now...it was said that people from the Federation are very good at doing business. One of his distant relatives went to the Federation two years ago."

"In just two years, his worth has doubled by more than ten times!"

"And...it's really a place full of miracles."

"Remember the young man named Lynch who gave the speech?"

"He didn't come from a political family, nor did he come from a big capitalist family. His father was a worker in an ordinary factory, and his mother was just an ordinary housewife."

"He grew up in a slum that looked like a shantytown, and he went to rubbish schools that he had never heard of."

"But he is such a guy. He has used his outstanding vision to become one of the most successful capitalists in the Federation!"

The noble who spoke sighed, and that kind of sigh came from the heart, because besides the incredible emotions such as "amazing" and "praise" for Lynch's achievements, this kind of sigh also included "jealousy", "greed", Negative emotions such as "helplessness".

This may be the helplessness that adults occasionally encounter. The rising sun has nothing to do with me.

"I heard that Lynch has more than 200 billion funds in his hands, and half of them are in cash."

"This does not include ... the debt of the two countries."

"It's really hard to imagine, how can there be such a person in this world!"

Mr. 200 Billion is an upgraded nickname after Mr. 100 Billion, but not many people shout it, because the federal people don't know how much money Lynch has.

Moreover, the federal people attach great importance to these personal privacy issues. Even if there is a rich list, if Lynch does not personally express his willingness to "be on the list", then no one has the right to publish these data.

Otherwise, they would have violated Lynch's personal privacy. In the Federation, it's okay to offend the president, but don't offend the capitalists and the rich.

Only foreigners like to talk about how much money Lynch has, and how the money that bothers him for him can be accounted for.

As for the national debt...

So far, Gefla still owes Lynch about 80 billion federal sols. The debt has not been paid off, and it is nowhere in sight.

If they want to pay off this debt, they can't end it with so much money. They have to spend another sum of money to completely acquire Blackstone Bank (Gafra Headquarters).

At the same time, Peng Jieao also owed Lynch a large amount of money, which was also a bad debt. It was hard to say whether he could repay it, but it was definitely a headache.

In this way, Lynch's wealth is really amazing!
If you count the wealth of Slem...

Everyone in the room is silent. When the money reaches a certain level, even power will be eclipsed!

Your Excellency the Governor's expression is not very good, and other people also noticed this, "You seem to have some problems."

Regarding the nobleman's question, His Excellency the Governor hesitated for a moment, did not hide it, and truthfully told the fact that Edward had run away.

"I've already sent someone to catch him. As long as he doesn't run out of Pengjieao, I believe he won't be able to hide for long."

"As for the money in the bank, I'm already arranging for someone to chase after it..."

The words had some tails and were not finished. Everyone knew in their hearts that what was not said and what was not said was actually bad news.

It is very likely that this money will not be traced.

The current international situation is very delicate. More than half of the countries in the world seem to be ready to pick and choose for the Penteio Empire anytime, anywhere, and this involves neutral countries.

Even if His Excellency the Governor has great power, it cannot affect the attitude of that overseas bank.

They don't want to cooperate, they just don't want to cooperate, they can only find a way to find a relationship or find a public relations team.

The nobles don't particularly care about being cheated out of their money. Their investment amount is actually not much, a little more than 200 million, and a little less is 50 million.

Not all nobles can be as rich as His Excellency the Governor. After all, he is the Governor, and he has the military and political power.

This loss is not fatal to the nobles, but it just reduces the cash in their hands, which is a bit troublesome.

"Do you need our help?"

Your Excellency the governor shook his head, "Don't spread this matter for the time being, we will talk about it after we have the result."

He paused as he spoke, "I'm sorry, this happened so suddenly, I don't have the interest to continue chatting, so let's stop here today."

He stood up while apologizing, and the other nobles also stood up one after another. Your Excellency the governor has lost the most, and they can understand.

And the loss of money is only part of it, the lost face is the most important!
After all, His Excellency the Governor is very optimistic about this project and strongly recommends it. If he has to be held accountable, His Excellency the Governor will even have to pay for everyone's losses in advance.

Your Excellency the governor sent the nobles to the gate, watched them leave in the car, and then returned to the study angrily.

He made several more phone calls, but there was no good news, including those who traced the flow of funds in the bank, and there was no good news back.

That money, close to [-] million funds, quickly flowed continuously in more than tens of thousands of accounts in many countries, and finally disappeared.

The bank also refused to provide detailed funds flow documents, and it involved banks in multiple neutral and non-neutral countries. The person in charge of investigating this matter could only express helplessly.

Trying to trace the money through its movement to where it ends up and who is going to use it is, of course, going nowhere.

Really sucks!

To make matters worse, His Excellency the Governor has asked not to let it out, but the news still leaked out...

All the investors have called the governor to inquire about the specific situation of this matter, and the local mayor also called the governor to ask how to solve the follow-up problems of the expropriation.

Now a large group of people have made preparations for demolition, and even some residents have moved out one after another.

If I stop now...
