Bulgarian Empire

Vol 5 Chapter 158: Robin Hood re-emerges

A genius remembers the address of this site in one second: (Vertex Chinese), the fastest update! No ads!? The United Kingdom is the weather vane of the world. Now that the London government has taken measures, everyone will naturally rush to follow suit.

Soon European and American countries announced to raise tariffs. Countries that did not abandon the gold standard have also abandoned the gold standard. The price of gold on the international market has plummeted.

What is Ferdinand doing at this time? Of course it's buying and buying? At this time, don't buy gold, when?

Will gold not depreciate? That's nonsense!

I have never heard of a sentence. Twenty years ago, one ton of gold could buy a street in the capital. Twenty years later, one ton of gold could buy at most one shop in the capital!

On the surface, the price of gold has not fallen much? In fact, inflation is happening all the time. There is no alternative.

The purchase of gold is actually just a small business. The governments of various countries are not stupid and will not let a large amount of gold go out. The main purpose is to purchase antiques and cultural relics.

Buying gold is just a diversion. As long as humans still use gold as currency, the price of gold will not fall too severely.

Ferdinand is also not picky, he is not aware of antiques and cultural relics from all over the world.

The economic crisis broke out, and antiques and cultural relics that are usually rare can be sold at this time.

In the face of survival, who can care about antiques and cultural relics?

"James, you see clearly that this is the treasure left over from the Sun Dynasty, how can it be worth five pounds?" one person roared

"Will is enough! I paid five pounds, which is already a sky-high price. Go out and ask yourself. At this time, the price of antiques on the market?

Is there a higher bid than mine? If so, you can sell it to them! "James said impatiently

"Mr. James, your antique shop is still open in this area, where can I find out?" Will frowned and said

"It’s good to know. It’s a time of economic crisis. Antiques are not valuable at all. Can I find a buyer for these goods?

Besides, you are still antiques left over from the Sun Dynasty, and these things have never been of high value in Britain.

Think about it, how many rich people are interested in Indian civilization? "James continued

"But Mr. James, this is a scepter? Its historical status is extraordinary. How can it be compared with ordinary antiques?

Before the economic crisis, you paid 300 pounds and I didn't sell it. Why is it worth 100 pounds at this time? "Will bargained again.

"You also know that it's a period of economic crisis? Why don't you grab a hundred pounds? If the scepter was left over from the Roman Empire, it would be almost the same!

Now I can only give you 7 pounds at most, which is already a high price. You have to understand that the current market conditions cannot be compared with normal times. If you want to sell high prices, wait for the economic crisis to end! "James said indifferently

In the past month or so, he has received more antiques than in previous years, one more and one less. He really doesn't care anymore.

Originally, in this economic crisis, he also suffered heavy losses, owed a debt of assault, and he was about to go bankrupt.

A former customer contacted him and bought all his antiques at the price of cabbage, so that he could pay the interest and not go bankrupt!

Later he learned that someone was buying antiques, and he wanted as much as he wanted. James is not stupid, he knows that there must be some big shots.

At this time, as long as you can spend a while, you can not only pay off the debt, but also make a lot of money.

Anyway, the antiques industry is in deep water. I have been in this industry for more than 30 years, and James has long been a human being.

Because of the pre-consumption relationship, British people basically have a big debt. When the economy is running well, they have wages to repay the debt, and the problem is not big.

As soon as the economic crisis broke out and the tide of unemployment came, everyone would have no money to repay loans at this time.

Not only that, but many people are unable to sustain their livelihoods. In order to survive, they can only rely on selling assets to support them.

In this historical economic crisis in the United States, millions of people died in a few years, and the economic crisis is known to be terrible.

"Fifty pounds, it can't be lower! If it is lower, I would rather ruin it!" Will said nervously

"Ten pounds, do whatever you like. If you exceed this price, I will lose money. The antiques of this period are worthless!"

James once again emphasized that antiques are not valuable. This is the most common and practical tactic he uses.

Ever since Will walked into his shop, James has been instilling in him that antiques are worthless in times of economic crisis, constantly lowering his bottom price.

"Mr. James, it really doesn't work. The price is too low. We are all old neighbors. Everyone has lived on this street for so long. You must help me this time!

Now I am unemployed, and my love is also unemployed. I still have three children to feed. Now we need a sum of money to survive. Please, God will bless you! "Will said excitedly

"Well, no one calls me a good person. For the sake of everyone's neighbors for many years, I will add another five pounds to you. I will even do this business in vain.

The money is saved a little, and it should be enough for you to hold on for more than three months.

During this time, you should be able to find a new job. All of this will pass and the future will be better. May God bless you! "James said religiously

Obviously, James is very good at his words and opinions, he found that Will is about to have a nervous breakdown, and this time can not stimulate him.

A person who is going to have a mental breakdown must give him a life-saving straw, otherwise the consequences will be very serious.

James is a businessman. He knows the principle of accepting as soon as he sees it. First, he draws a pie for Will to let him see the future.

Even if he has a mental breakdown in the future, and wants to break the society, he will find others instead of letting him break down immediately.

It might be that the collapsed Will directly shot him down, and there were not a few British civilian guns this year.

Almost all European and American countries allow citizens to hold guns, and even the most basic supervision is not very strict.

As early as 1688, the "Bill of Rights" stipulated:

All subjects who are Protestants, for the sake of defense, have to consider the circumstances and purchase weapons within the scope permitted by law.

The people can grab it, so the officials of the European and American governments are all high-risk jobs, and wanting to be unscrupulously exploited would be fatal.

The death rate of the American president is as high as 20%, which is even more dangerous than going to the battlefield.

Capitalists squeeze workers, and they are far less scary than textbooks, unless they are not afraid of being shot.

"Thank you Mr. James!" Will said excitedly

"You're welcome, stay with your family, as long as the people are still there, everything can start over again!" James comforted

...

After sending Will away, James was nervous and slowly relaxed. The business he robbed was really profitable, but it was also dangerous!

According to the news published in the news, after the stock market crash, more than 10,000 shootings occurred in London alone, and London's prisons have long been overcrowded.

In the face of disasters, people are always vulnerable. Economic crises destroy not only the economy, but also people's fragile hearts.

Nowadays, London is full of crimes, which is overwhelming.

Even the legendary hero Robin Hood was resurrected. Some people started to rob the rich and help the poor organized under his banner. They all wore masks and robbed banks everywhere.

After each robbery, they would throw a large amount of cash on the ground and let the people pick it up. Each time they took one hundred pounds each.

So far, the gang has ransacked more than 30 bank outlets and still has not been caught by the police.

Every time the British police are deployed, countless British people cover their evacuation, and they do it like a hero.

Of course, this is also related to the fact that the police do not work hard. Like most people, many police officers agree with their practice deep down.

As long as there is no resistance, the Robin Hood organization will not hurt people, which is a typical case of peaceful robbery.

In the street tabloids, these organizations have become heroes, attracting a group of "Rogues" to join, and then quickly spread from London to the world.

A series of big cities such as Paris, New York, Washington, Lisbon, Venice, Rome, Berlin, Vienna, etc. have all appeared in Robin Hood.

Ferdinand, the initiator, can guarantee that these have nothing to do with him. At most, he only guided and promoted the heroism of Robin Hood.

As a person with vested interests, how could he advocate "robbing the rich and helping the poor"? Isn't this having trouble with yourself?

All of these are caused by their self-taught talents, and they twisted the talent tree!

However, the Bulgarian film companies have new shooting materials. "Robin Hood" has been set up quickly, and many film companies have opened films of this theme.

If nothing else, this is still a series of movies. It seems that any city where Robin Hood has appeared can be shot in a movie. Of course, the villains are governments of various countries.

Anyway, it has nothing to do with Bulgaria. If it is not black, they are sorry to the audience. Movies based on realistic themes are the most resonant in this era.

Of course, the protagonist does not have to be Robin Hood, Zhou Binhan and Li Binhan can do it, just change the name, otherwise a bunch of Robin Hoods will come out, what about this copyright?

box office? In this era, as long as the domestic box office is high enough, Europe and the United States will sell at most three melons and two dates, even if certain countries are banned, it does not matter.

Pirates don't care about the government's decree. After this incident, it is estimated that the number of countries studying Bulgaria will increase a lot.

The generation that has just been hurt by the stock market crash is estimated to be fresh in memory. Ferdinand can guess which countries will announce the closure of the stock market after Bulgaria.

These are all precedents. After the stock market crash, people who suffered heavy losses asked to close the stock market. This kind of thing is not uncommon in continental Europe.

It's just that you can't persist every time, as soon as the economy returns to normal, and with the efforts of the capitalists, the stock market will soon open again.

...

London

As the place where Robin Hood first appeared, the Macdonald government was Alexander. Such a rampant criminal gang has not been caught up to now. Doesn't this mean they are incompetent?

Capitalists are putting more and more pressure on the government, especially interest groups whose interests have been damaged in the government's new economy. They are already planning to collapse.

But at this time, it is still a mess. No politician wants to take over at this time, otherwise the government's impeachment case has already entered Congress for voting.

The most direct manifestation is that the Labor Party has split. MacDonald, the leader of the Labor Party, has been ousted by them and forced to form the National Labor Party.

This can be regarded as a legend in British history. Under normal circumstances, politicians rarely do so. Even if they do not support him, they will not expel the party leader?

It can only be said that the interests are moving. The capitalists who supported the Labor Party behind the scenes abandoned MacDonald. The Labor Party will naturally break with him. Otherwise, why can't the funders explain it?

"Les, when will these thieves be caught?" Prime Minister Macdonald asked, frowning.

"Your Prime Minister, I cannot answer this question. Although these robberies appear to be carried out by a group of people on the surface, according to the police's on-site investigation, this is not the case!

The criminals who first played the Robin Hood banner, their modus operandi was very professional. From the beginning of the robbery to the evacuation, they were all organized, and most of the money robbed was distributed to the people.

Since there was no exchange of fire, what their actual combat capability was still unknown.

In the next few cases, the modus operandi was more amateurish, but their marksmanship was very good. When fighting against bank security personnel, they showed high military literacy, just like soldiers.

When they finally left, although they also scattered a large amount of cash on the ground, they took away the gold, which was much more greedy than the previous criminal gang.

And when he evacuated, he was a little panic. If it hadn't been for a London citizen to deliberately obstruct the police's actions and cover their retreat, they would be caught by the police.

At present we can only send people to guard around the bank, waiting for them to be arrested, it is difficult to catch them all! "The Secretary of State Les said with a wry smile.

"Don't care about so many, you can count as much as you can, no matter whether you live or die, we need to give the bankers an explanation!" McDonald thought for a while and said

It is very difficult to investigate a case in this era, and this is not an ordinary case~www.wuxiahere.com~ Even if the real culprit is found, as long as the person is not stolen and obtained, others can find evidence of absence. At this time, London is willing Too many people testified to them!

At that time, it was really troublesome. If you don't deal with it, you can't give the capitalists an explanation. If you want to deal with it, you can't convict it.

Who called these robbers, doing business to rob the rich and help the poor?

In the eyes of ordinary people, they don't see the harm in doing so. Now many young people in Britain worship them as heroes.

"Your Excellency, we have actually captured a group of Robin Hoods and are waiting in line for the court's trial!

If needed, they can all become scapegoats? "The Secretary of State Rice proposed

"No, this is impossible to satisfy the capitalists. The most important thing is to prevent the Robin Hood Bandit Group from committing crimes before this matter can end!

Otherwise, even if there are more scapegoats, the robbery is still going on. Do you think they will be satisfied? "Macdonald said with a wry smile

In fact, even if all the murderers are caught now, the capitalists cannot be satisfied. Unless they can find a way to end the economic crisis immediately, it will not be possible to satisfy everyone with the government.

Had he not signed the "Special Industry Protection Law" before and let the consortium treat them as their own, their pressure would be even greater now.

The strength of ordinary capitalists and consortia is not at the same level, and most of the banks being robbed now belong to consortia.

Because the cooperation last time was very pleasant, the consortium believed that MacDonald's cabinet was a friend to cooperate with, and did not trouble him at this time.

However, human relations are the most unreliable thing, especially in the face of interests. In the short term, it doesn't matter if everyone gives face, and no one's face is good over time!
