The richest man in the world

In the confinement room of the World Government Building in the Holy Land of Mary Joa, the white-haired steel skeleton Sora is sitting on the floor thinking about life, he has fought for the navy all his life, but he didn't expect that he is just a pawn that can be discarded at any time.

It's ridiculous that he obviously handed over half of the three billion Baileys he received, but he didn't expect the world government to turn around and refuse to recognize people, and dumped all the black pots on his head.

The half-meter-thick steel door of the confinement chamber was slowly opened, and the sunlight gradually shone in, and the steel bones knew that the day had come for him to be judged.

However, the staff member took out the key, opened the Hailou stone handcuffs on the steel bare hand, and said in a stiff tone:

"Sora, you have been released! In the future, you can stay in the Holy Land and live, but you are forbidden to contact all the affairs of the navy." The

freed steel bones, breathing the air outside, regained his former calm, and asked: "Who saved me?"

At this time, a CP9 chief came over and politely explained: "It was Lieutenant General Karp who took out a bottle of heavenly potion to save you, but because the nobles of the four seas talked about you, they couldn't let your old official reinstate, and now that the Warring States have taken over your position, you can retire in the Holy Land with peace of mind in the future."

"I understand!" The

navy was handed over to the management of the Warring States, and the steel bones were very relieved, at this moment he completely let go of the burden on his shoulders, and it was good to be an ordinary old man.

......

A purchaser from the purchasing department of the Goya Kingdom Steel Mill

was talking to the raw material supplier: "The price of iron ore has doubled in just a few days, aren't you afraid of the sanctions of

the Treasure Pavilion?"

Sir, of course we know the power of the Treasure Pavilion, but this price is not something we can control, the world government has lowered the ratio of Bailey to gold, and the Bailey in our hands is depreciating wildly, and now everything is going up in price, the price I give you is already the lowest price, if it is according to the real-time exchange rate, the price of iron will rise by two percent. "

I don't care about the price of other materials! The price of iron ore must be the same as yesterday, the goods of the Treasure Pavilion have never increased the price of yours, you can do it yourself!"

The purchase was very unhappy and hung up the phone, but he was not the only one who encountered the same problem, all the imported materials in the entire Goya Kingdom were skyrocketing, and then the goods they produced had to increase their prices, forming a vicious circle.

When Lee Jones learned the news, he understood that this must be the world government, and at the same time, he had a strong sense of crisis in his heart, he must have a monetary system of his own, and the economic lifeline cannot be handed over to others.

The system assistant suddenly spoke: Ding Dong! Trigger an urgent quest to make a popular currency that can be circulated in at least twenty countries, and the quest rewards an unknown level of goods.

Note that the task time is only one month, and if it is not completed within the time limit, it will bear the consequences of inflation 100%.

This is the first time that Lee Jones has triggered the task, so he asked suspiciously: "What does it mean to bear the consequences of inflation?"

System: "Even if the outside Bailey depreciates, the price of goods in the Treasure Pavilion will also increase in the same proportion, unless you can create a hard currency within a month, so that your economy is not regulated by Bailey." Li

Jones finally understood, as long as he couldn't get a new currency within a month, then the price of the Treasure Pavilion commodities would also skyrocket, which was equivalent to letting the world government control the prices of the Treasure Pavilion, and he could go up and down if he wanted.

Although it is very simple to make money, if you want to be recognized by other countries, you must have a hard currency that can be exchanged in real time, the Bailey printed by the world government is pegged to gold, and the dollar in the previous life is pegged to oil, so the new currency must have a certain actual value.

Among all the commodities in the trading space, the only ones that can replace oil are colorless small crystals, and this kind of clean energy can definitely be recognized by other countries.

The more Jones thought about it, the more he felt that the plan was feasible, so he dialed the phone: "Call Otluk III to come to the windmill village for a meeting." He

summoned Otluc III, Nobunaga, and Magino together to discuss monetary reform, but the topic had just been raised.

Even Nobunaga, the most heartfelt, was not optimistic, because the issuance of currency was a blatant opposition to the world government, which was even more arrogant than the revolutionary army.

Otluk III said with a sad face: "President, according to the historical records of the Kingdom of Goa, eighty years ago, there was a great country on the Passage that used its own currency and abandoned Bailey, and was finally destroyed by the Demon Slayer Order, and even the information that existed was deliberately erased.

Magino said a little nervously: "If we don't ask the navy to communicate with the world government, maybe this is just normal regulation, and normal prices will be restored soon."

Lee Jones saw that these people did not approve of his idea, and he could only say what he had learned.

"Karp just called me, the reason why the world government regulates Bailey this time is because of a fire in a mangrove forest on the Red Earth Continent, and mahogany is the most critical material for printing Bailey, so the cost of printing Bailey has risen again and again, in order to stop losses in time, the world government temporarily regulates Bailey, and it will be changed back soon.

"But there have not been any fires in the Red Earth Continent during this time, and this time the price has skyrocketed, only the East China Sea has the greatest impact, and the prices in other regions have basically not fluctuated, so the world government is targeting our Treasure Pavilion." The

kind-hearted Magino whispered: "The world government is doing this just for money, let's give them some, so that everyone will be better."

Li Jones saw that the other two people actually agreed with Magino's idea, and said helplessly:

"If it's just for a little money, the world government can ask for it through the navy, but now it's directly forcing me to talk to them and ask me to give away the Treasure Pavilion, which is absolutely impossible, and we have no choice but to issue our own currency." Magino

, who had just been resigned, stood up for the safety of the people of the whole country at this moment, and asked loudly:

"In case the world government launches a demon slaying order, what can we resist? This is more than 500,000 lives!"

Don't get excited, before I find out how many hole cards I have in my hand, the world government will not necessarily launch a demon slaying order, which provokes me to sell the pill as a jelly bean to the pirates, so that the world government can't eat it and go around.

Li Jones comforted Magino and sat down, and then he glanced at Nobunaga, and the cronie immediately stood up and said

, "I think the currency reform can be implemented, with the influence of our Treasure Pavilion in the East China Sea, even if we can't respond to a hundred calls, we can easily pull out allies from more than a dozen countries, not to mention that there is also Vice Admiral Karp in the navy to maintain relations,

and it is impossible for the world government to rashly launch a demon slaughter order."

As an old fox in the officialdom, Otluk III also hurriedly stood up and stood in line: "I support the currency reform, our national defense force is enough to defend our people, and everything is up to the president."

"Well, since you all think this is possible, let's start the monetary reform, and I'll arrange the work.

Lee Jones cut through the mess quickly, and didn't give Magino a chance to speak, so he decided the matter.
