Chapter 770 Ah!
The nobles are a very special group, they have certain incomprehensible hobbies and values.

In a certain period of time in the past, ladies often appeared in some public occasions, and they would wear some bold costumes!

In this monarchy and feudal country, in this world where men rule everything, it is amazing that this kind of thing can happen.

These ladies will become the first objects of admiration, and their purpose in doing so is to make the knights fight for them.

Another thing that sounds unbelievable, but this is what happened in history.

Whether an aristocratic woman is popular depends on how many people are willing to die for her!

The imperial capital has the most ladies and is also the most famous, so in the entire empire, as long as they have a little bit of confidence in themselves, knights who want to become famous will gather here in the imperial capital.

For the knights, there are many ways to be famous, such as establishing meritorious service in wars, but this is difficult to do because wars do not happen all the time.

Another way is to sleep with those noble ladies, not only to taste the delicate taste of noble flowers, but also to become famous.

It's like two groups that are naturally attracted to each other, the knights will pick a suitable lady to launch a fierce pursuit, and if there are other knights who are also pursuing this lady, then they will duel for this lady.

Only the winner can become a playmate in the lady's bed, and the loser will lose his life.

This is a very cruel game, but the knights never tire of it. Every knight who dares to come to the imperial capital to seek fame does not believe that anyone can defeat him.

Ladies also need duels from knights, need blood and life to irrigate their fame.

At that time, if anyone had no knight suitors, let alone a duel for her, then she would definitely be rejected by the mainstream circles.

At that time, the most famous person in the whole capital of Gevra was the concubine of a certain prince. At least a hundred knights died tragically in the duel field in the process of fighting for the right to mate.

What's more interesting is that from the perspective of people today, the nobles at that time did not seem to object to their wives having some direct communication with the knights, and some nobles were even proud of it.

In fact, it's just that people now use current thinking to misinterpret people's thinking in the past. In the eyes of male nobles at that time, except for a few people, most nobles did not treat their wives as equals.

In their eyes, the so-called wife is not necessarily someone who wants to give birth to offspring for themselves, but also a kind of decoration, a kind of embellishment.

The louder their fame, the more honor the nobles feel.

Every era has its absurdities, and it's unfair to look at these things from the perspective of today's people.

The little earl tried his best to appease himself, and then threw himself into the salon.

It was past nine o'clock in the evening when he went back, and he wasn't sure when would be the right time to go back, so he tried to stay as late as possible.

When he got home, Lynch had already left. His mother, the former countess, was watching TV, covering her mouth and laughing from time to time.

The little count glanced at the TV screen, and heard a slightly strange pronunciation in his ears. There was no doubt that this was a TV series from the Federation.

Since the cultural exchange mission completed their mission and brought back a large number of cultural works, the Gefra people finally recognized the most authentic federal TV series and programs.

There is even a local program dedicated to teaching everyone how to watch the TV series of the Federation. They also formally placed a sofa in front of the TV, telling everyone that if you want to experience the life of the Federation people more deeply, you must lie on the sofa Eating high-fat and high-sugar food while watching TV.

Otherwise, the essence of these programs cannot be understood at all.

Well, this is a kind of ridicule, a kind of sarcasm, and generally speaking, the Federation's programs are still very popular in Gafla.

There is no serious political content, no heavy social phenomena, no manic patriotism, only shitty joy.

There is no need to waste even a single brain cell, just watch the screen and keep giggling. The popularity of Federation programs has also made people more curious about Federation.

What kind of society is it that can film such mentally handicapped TV series?
The little earl's eyes flickered from the TV screen, he walked to the bench and sat down, picked up a fruit on the table, thought for a while and put it back.

"Lynch is gone..." He seemed to be asking a question, but also seemed to be confirming something.

The former countess nodded, "Leave after dinner."

The mother and son fell into silence again, although there are some things you know how they should be, but it is difficult to go your way.

His hands and fingers were intertwined, and then separated quickly, "What did he say?"

The former countess withdrew her attention from the TV screen. The way she looked at her son was a little different from the past. It was filled with inexplicable joy and curiosity as if she had discovered something new.

"He said something that I haven't thought about, but I can't tell you now..." When she finished speaking, the little count seemed to want to stand up.

He respected her a lot, but sometimes he would speak out loudly, like any normal kid would.

This time, she didn't give the little earl this chance, "This is what Lynch requested, and he said that I can't tell you until the matter develops to that point."

"But you don't have to worry too much, we won't go to the Federation."

The little earl, who was still somewhat dissatisfied, dropped his butt back after hearing these words, and at the same time exhaled the turbid air in his chest, "It seems that the situation is much better than we imagined?"

The former countess nodded, "You have to maintain your small group frequently. In addition, you have to go to the Privy Council to communicate with everyone..."

The little earl knew everything without any problems, and only Lynch could say such things.

"Is there anything else?" He looked at his mother, who shook his head, and then he stood up, "I'm a little tired, let's go to rest first, and you should also go to rest earlier."

After watching the little count leave, the former countess seemed to focus on the TV series again, but there was no smile in her eyes, only a thought.

Lynch told her some of her own ideas and plans in the afternoon, which shocked her very much. At the same time, she also realized that this is an opportunity, a very rare opportunity, an opportunity to enter the core of power.

Sometimes fate is so unfortunate that it cruelly takes her husband away in his best years.

But sometimes fate is also very distressing. When she and her child were struggling to support, she was hit by fate.

A picture scroll full of bright future is slowly unfolding.

In a blink of an eye, it was the second Monday of November, and the financial aid from the federal government finally arrived, and the money came in time.

Originally, neither His Majesty the Emperor nor the Prime Minister and other ministers thought that this would be an easy task.

But after the chancellor of the exchequer called, they actually agreed.

Yes, it's not a loan, it's financial aid, and if they want the money, they have to do it as the feds say, it's aid, not a loan, although both are essentially the same, both need to be repaid and paid Interest, can be said is not the same.

A different statement will bring about some diplomatic changes. Borrowing money may be a relatively equal relationship, while aid and being aided are not.

Considering that the country is indeed facing a lot of troubles, this matter has finally been confirmed. Of course, the blame has been thrown to the Minister of Finance who has stepped down. If someone thinks this matter is a loss of authority and humiliation to the country in the future, then they can only learn from the history books. See the name of a "sinner".

This man is not the Prime Minister, nor will he be the Emperor of the Empire.

After the money arrived, the confidence of the Imperial Royal Bank came out. As soon as all the units went to work on Monday morning, the Prime Minister held a press conference and announced that the funds from the treasury would be used to stabilize the current financial market as soon as possible and quell the run.

At the same time, we will continue to pursue the related legal responsibilities of the people or organizations that played a disgraceful role in this run on.

The Royal Bank and some banks of the nobles also announced interest rate adjustments. On the basis of the original interest rate, they increased the annualized rate by [-]% in an attempt to impress the public and get them to put money in the bank again. .

As soon as various news came out, the biggest change was the bank. The Royal Bank directly opened all the windows to accept withdrawal services.

Sometimes people are cheap. When there were only two windows before, people would have to withdraw the money in their accounts even if they queued for a day.

But when all the counters were really released, people were unwilling to withdraw money, and said that they always believed in the empire.

The wave of runs has subsided from top to bottom, and changes in the financial market have also stabilized.

There is money in the bank, and they can lend money to these listed companies. Whether it is considering maintaining the shareholding ratio or raising the stock price, they must raise the stock price.

Fortunately, Lynch's short sale has also reached the settlement date. Although the income is a little less than the previous few days, they still made a lot of money in the end.

If someone cries, someone laughs, and if everyone is losing money, someone must get rich.

Looking at the series of numbers in his bank, Lynch still got a great satisfaction.

Some people say that the change of numbers is of little significance to rich people, that is because the number of digits changed is too small, try changing to a larger number!

In that room again, the little nobles headed by Lynch gathered together again.

They got this bonus through Lynch, and everyone realized the wealth and freedom of the nobility. They sincerely thank Lynch for everything he has done, and are willing to continue to support him.

Everyone had smiles on their faces. There was nothing more comfortable than making money. Everyone looked relaxed, except Lynch who seemed normal.

At least not so joyous, there was no smile on his face.

The little count asked curiously, "Mr. Lynch, don't you seem particularly happy?"
