Chapter 1235： Chestnut from the fire (medium)

This makes the Cologne Stone Group and the Phoenix Empire power group closely integrated, forming a far more amazing deal of power and money than the Asgard Group, allowing Cologne Stone to obtain huge profits.

On the other hand, because it is a bank-like enterprise, on the basis of carrying out normal business activities, it also secretly provides money laundering and property transfer services for the dignitaries of the Phoenix Empire.

Although the Phoenix Empire is a monarchy, the nobles and officials stand at the top of the pyramid, but their sense of security is actually not high. They are worried about defeat in the struggle for power and fear of hatred from the people. The chaos in the Lembel region particularly aggravated their panic.

Whether it is based on the consideration of rational asset allocation, the consideration of leaving a way out for oneself, or the worry that the depreciation of the national currency will cause wealth to shrink, more and more powerful and rich are choosing to transfer their money out. But where to go? Star League, Charles Federation, Silver Eagle Group? Or the Sulu Empire and the Sauron Empire?

With the current chaos in the Hilumbel region and the severe destruction of the international financial market, it is obviously not a good choice to deposit money in the countries of the Hilumbel region, so the Colognestone Group has become a powerful group connecting the Phoenix Empire. The bridge to the United States of Jupiter.

For historical reasons, compared with the Monya Empire and the Sulu Empire, the United States of Jupiter is much more hostile to the Phoenix Empire. Any funds and personnel imported into the United States of Jupiter from the Phoenix Empire will be subject to strict scrutiny. And monitoring. 99.99% of the wealth accumulated by the vested interests of the Phoenix Empire came from plundering domestic people, or trading power and money, and it is impossible to enter the Jupiter United States through normal channels.

In such a situation, the Colonstone Group, as a Charles Commonwealth banking enterprise with a good relationship with the United States of Jupiter, through money laundering operations, is sufficient to help them transfer money to the United States of Jupiter.

After the Phoenix Empire declared war on the Star Covenant, the rich and powerful at first only transferred family property, but with the emergence of the wandering planets and the Dreadnought Commander-class fortress ships, the Queen of Blades washed Krengel and Zelda in blood, burning the entire army of the Legion. After annihilation, the Jupiter Expeditionary Army led by Ingrid Alexander was caught in a dilemma. In addition, His Majesty the Holy Emperor was in a strange coma, and the domestic political situation was twists and turns, which further stimulated the nerves of the powerful.

Now these people are not only satisfied with the transfer of property, including descendants, lovers and illegitimate children, all join the transfer sequence and try to send them abroad for asylum.

If it is a general identity, it is relatively easy to operate for the Cologne Stone Group, but when it comes to members of the Phoenix Empire royal family, even if they are only illegitimate children or lovers, they need to take great risks. Once the United States of Jupiter finds out that the Colonstone Group has helped the descendants of the Phoenix Empire to immigrate maliciously by forging their identities, it will bring a heavy blow to the enterprise.

It is precisely because the nobles of the Phoenix Empire are not satisfied with the performance of the Colonstone Group, that is why the statement by Inoue Kazuo just now makes it impossible for the company to withdraw its capital smoothly.

Powell Lee glanced at the opposite of the Marquis of Castell Bearn and Prince Spear Alexander, and tried to squeeze a smile: "His Royal Highness, please give us a little more time. After all, transferring people is not like transferring property. It is risky. Very high, very difficult to operate."

For Prince Spear Alexander, he has not been very impressed until the old man introduced him to his eight god-daughters and sent him to arrange them out. An old man in his 70s recognized eight eighteen-year-old girls as goddaughters. Two of them had big bellies and were already pregnant.

What can he say? He can't say anything.

For the Marquis of Castel Bern, the impression comes from the marquise wearing noble fur and full of diamond rings on ten fingers. Her intention was to entrust the Colonstone Group to manage a business called Alex Trust Fund, with a total amount of 1.5 billion Phoenix Empire currency. He originally thought it was the Marquise’s establishment for his grandson or granddaughter. Alex is a purebred sheepdog.

What can he say? He can't say anything.

Spear Alexander was very dissatisfied with his statement and said bluntly: "Well, when will you successfully transfer the person out, and when will the amount be allowed to be remitted."

Powell Lee said: "I beg you... to give a part of the quota first, so that you can appease the people at the headquarters."

Spear Alexander said coldly: "No."

Powell Lee has been working on this matter for many days. He was very upset and anxious. He was confused for a while and said angrily: "This is the normal profit of the enterprise. We have an agreement first. The Phoenix Empire government should fulfill the agreement and protect foreign-funded enterprises. Business activities."

Caster Bern said: "We do have an agreement, but the agreement says that the Phoenix Empire government is fully committed to safeguarding the legitimate business activities of the Cologne Stone Group in the country, and it does not say that it will fully protect the illegal operations of the Cologne Stone Group in the country. activity."

Powell Lee froze for a moment, and soon figured out what Custer Bayn wanted to express.

The business activities of the Cologne Stone Group in the Phoenix Empire are indispensable for the care of the powerful groups. Many businesses are carried out through the trading of power and money, directly bypassing the constraints of regulatory laws and regulations, saving a lot of time and cost.

It's not that he didn't think about doing business with integrity, rather than profiting through power and money trading, but in the face of the market environment of the Phoenix Empire, Fangzhengzhi was almost blocked, and only the back door could enter and exit.

I didn't expect these businesses to be used as a tool to threaten him by Caster Bern.

"You...you don't speak credit, you...you are a bunch of rascals, liars, and vampires!"

Jiuo Inoue said coldly, "Mr. Powell, pay attention to your words and deeds."

Powell Lee is not a person who is not square. Hearing this, he tried to suppress the evil fire in his heart, and said with a trembling, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't be so excited. I will do my best to meet the requirements of several adults, please be quiet. Hou Jiayin."

Spear Alexander didn't even say goodbye, he disconnected the connection directly, the light and shadow flickered, and finally turned into a light spot and disappeared. Then there are the Marquis of Castel Bern, the Marquis of George, and the Lord Deron,

Before disconnecting, Futou Inoue showed a gentle smile and said, "You shouldn't be so excited...but don't worry, I will say something nice for you in front of them."

"Thank you." Powell Lee managed to make a smile.

At this point, the movie ends, and the screen is still. Of course, the public has no way of knowing the psychological activities of Powell Lee and others, but from the annotations in the appendix of the film, it is generally possible to clarify the ins and outs of the matter and the mentality of the parties involved.

The people of the Durham Star System were in an uproar, and then the entire Phoenix Empire fell into a huge storm of public opinion, and even the Star Alliance, Charles Federation and other countries also obtained this image data.

This is the gorgeous aristocrats who are on the stage talking about the welfare of the people and supporting His Majesty the Holy Emperor. Unknowingly, their lovers, wives, children... have all become Jupiters and returned to their hometowns in another way. And take away the fruits of the hard work of the people of the Phoenix Empire, leaving a devastated land and a hungry and cold nation.

They teach the civilians to hate the Star League, the Charles Union, and the United States of Jupiter, but they send their wealth and people around them to live in places that should be hated; they demand that the civilians be honest, trustworthy, kind, and upright, and be good people useful to society. They insist on being an insatiable hooligan; they keep saying that they love their people like their children, but let alone their children and grandchildren, the common people are not as good as a dog they raise.

This video material completely shattered the hypocritical faces of the respectable nobles, allowing the people at the bottom to realize the evil behind the beautiful lies.

George Marquis, Castel Bern, Lord Deron, Prince Spier Alexander... these names are well known, despised, and scolded.

Public opinion is boiling over, and there is an invisible wave in society, like mountain torrents accumulating, accumulating, and accumulating again.

Some people who are sensitive to politics have expressions of fear, seeming to think of things that scare them...In the past, this kind of image data would never be leaked to the social level. Before it was broadcast, it would be blocked across the board. Now What? Many broadcast media spread wildly and talked about it. It was even more intense and magnificent than Hegel Alexander’s announcement of entering a state of war against the Star Covenant. It seemed that there was a pair of invisible hands moving forward in controlling the event.

That invisible hand...what does it...want to do? The result of this can only mess up the Phoenix Empire.

At this moment, His Majesty the Holy Emperor made another public speech, which was different from the last time. He reprimanded George? *Caster? Bern and others for their behavior in a very harsh tone, saying that what they did was nothing. LUOLUO’s treason and surrender to the enemy, imagine that they transferred their wives and children to the United States of Jupiter. What position did they take to teach the people of the Phoenix Empire to be patriotic, and what face do they have as the parents of the Phoenix Empire?

He also said that such officials are not a very small number or a minority in the government, not a majority, but a majority. The people's suppressed grievances have been too long, and the suppressed anger has been too much. He called on the people at the bottom to unite and let the high-ranking officials see the power of the people.

Here, he gave the people the freedom to gather HUI, tour XING, and protest. Any military and security department can only divert and not suppress, otherwise it would be a crime against imperial power, against the people, and against the country.

It was like uncovering the lid of an electric kettle, and hot steam boiled out; it seemed as if it had been pulled away from the cornerstone of the building, and the collapse was coming as expected.

His Majesty’s public speech spread rapidly in the Phoenix Empire, stirring up an energetic storm. The grievances and anger of the people at the bottom have already approached the critical point, but the power of fear of the strong QUAN is doing the final patience. Now with the strong support of His Majesty the Holy Emperor, one can imagine what will happen.

The new governor of Durham Star System and Commander of the Garrison Navy Marlow Smith was the first to stand up and express his firm support for His Majesty’s decision. Any military organization and security guard of Durham Star System who dare to violent people will be sentenced to death. .

Then there is the chief executive of the Leerben star system; then the chief executive of the Scadia star system... It is worth mentioning that before the chief executive of the Scadia star system expressed his support for the decision of His Majesty the Emperor, garrison The navy commander died violently for no reason.

...

In the previous Phoenix Empire, the people on the collection of HUI, You Xing, and the show WEI privately initiated by civil society were all suppressed and smeared. This time, unlike usual, it was an explosion of public opinion guided from the top down.

Under the operation of Marlow Smith, the Durham Stellar System took the lead in setting off a wave of strikes, and a large number of Morris slaves left their jobs and took to the streets. Students from various universities and high schools walked out of the school gate like a tide and flocked to the square, shouting slogans such as severely punishing traitors and punishing corrupt officials, holding large and small banners and signs in their hands, squandering nowhere with practical actions Vent the energy.

The entire Durham star system was loose and tightened. Under Marlow Smith's deliberate indulgence, society fell into a huge chaos, order was on the verge of collapse, and corporate production almost came to a standstill.

The police's guns were all confiscated, and in the face of the indignant crowds and demonstrators, they had no choice but to use anti-riot shields and armor to fight. Some guys who treated the people harshly in their past life became punching bags were beaten and disabled, and even died of messy feet.

This seems to confirm the causality theory of good for evil and evil for good. They used to rely on the power of the strong QUAN to ride on the people's head to dominate the blessing. When the strong QUAN no longer sheltered them, the resentment from the society swallowed it all at once.

When the master decides to abandon the running dogs that usually flank their teeth and claws, what awaits them is to become the dog meat hot pot at the banquet.

Faced with this situation, the police began to shrink back. Some took off their uniforms and became members of the demonstrators. They swarmed into some government agencies and began to encircle and attack their former superiors.

The Xing wave is like a high-speed train that cannot be stopped at all, because its fuel comes from the anger and grievance accumulated over the years, and it cannot be burned out in a moment.

Marlow Smith dispatched naval forces to block the exit passages of the Durham star system. Those high-ranking officials and dignitaries either hid in the mountains and old forests or entered private space stations set up in space to escape the low-level people dominated by anger and hatred.

Their lives are far more valuable than those untouchables, and they are even more afraid and fearful when faced with this degree of social turmoil.
