Chapter 92: The tricks of the lords to steal from each other (33)



In the laboratory.

Rosen was alone, holding several of his own Morningside Bank deposit checks.

This was received from a noble lady in the Shire and has never been used.

At this time, he put the old banknotes and the new banknotes provided by Maxim together, and used a high-power glass magnifying glass and bottom projection light source to carefully compare the differences between the banknotes.

After looking through them one by one, he finally came to a conclusion.

"Three of the deposited tickets are fake!"

Although the material is exactly the same as that of Dawn Bank, it definitely does not belong to Dawn Bank.

There are 50 deposit tickets, 47 of which are real and 3 are fake, each worth 2,000 Ogg, which means 6,000 Ogg are gone.

Rosen didn't point it out to Maxim because he felt that this matter was very complicated and didn't intend to alert the enemy.

The production process of these three fake bills is almost perfect. Ordinary people cannot tell the real from the fake at all. Even most people in the world cannot tell the difference.

The reason why Rosen was able to detect the abnormality at the first moment was because of his extremely high sensitivity to the aura of magic.

After any spell is cast, most of the mana will be converted into spell energy, but a very small amount of mana will still be retained.

This tiny trace of magic power is the unique soul breath left by the caster.

The longer the time, the weaker the smell.

As long as it lasts more than half a month, it basically exceeds the perception limit of an ordinary magician.

But Rosen is a ten-ring wizard.

These three fake tickets have been produced for two months, and the residual mana is very, very weak.

But he still felt that there was an extremely subtle difference between it and the real deposit ticket.

'There are a total of five magic masters in Dawn City who participated in the production of deposit tickets. I am very familiar with the aura of each magic master, but on these three deposit tickets, there is a completely unfamiliar aura of a master.'

'This aura is lively and agile, the owner should be no more than 30 years old, and the youngest magic master who participated in the imprinting of the deposit ticket in Dawn City is 40 years old.'

Therefore, the deposit slip must be forged, and the tiny differences in the paper craftsmanship of the deposit slip also well support Rosen's speculation.

Forging bank deposit checks is essentially stealing money from the bank.

Dawn Bank belongs to the Duke of Dawn, so it steals the Duke's money.

So who is stealing? "The bank deposit slips are made of very special alchemical paper, which is extremely difficult to forge. The magic seal is also almost impossible to crack. It is also a parent-child certificate."

"To achieve such an indistinguishable imitation, firstly, it requires collusion between members of the Dawn Bank and outsiders. Secondly, it requires extremely high alchemical technology."

In the past, Rosen had thought about forging Chenxi Bank deposit checks to cash out, but later found that this was extremely difficult.

He had to devote a huge amount of time and energy to research, and also had to take great risks to launder money, so he eventually gave up.

Now, some people have done it and succeeded, and they are not afraid of risks.

"It's most likely the Royal Family of Levinder!"

The Levender royal family mobilized the kingdom's top power, forged bank checks, and secretly took money out of the Duke of Dawn's purse!

No, not only the Duke of Dawn’s money, but the wealth of all the people of Weilan!

After this batch of fake bills of exchange flowed into the market, Levender merchants naturally used them to purchase resources from various counties in Veran.

In essence, it is to exchange a pile of low-value alchemical paper for large quantities of real materials.

After figuring it out, Rosen couldn't help but curse in his heart.

'I've always heard that the little king of Levender loves to play. Now it seems that this sixth child is actually a big player!'

'What are the consequences of this?'

In Weilan, or even in the entire Natural Alliance, credit currencies such as paper money have not yet emerged.

This type of bearer bank deposit is only used for large transactions, and ordinary transactions among the private sector still use metal currencies such as gold, silver and copper.

Nobles and wealthy businessmen were the main users of this type of bank deposit.

Once the truth is exposed, the first to be affected are the interests of the upper classes such as the nobles and wealthy businessmen.

If the credit of the bank deposit notes goes bankrupt, Chenxi Bank will be run for cash, which will inevitably trigger a series of chaos and shocks in the entire Weilan.

Ultimately, the consequences will be borne by all of the Vladimir people.

Everyone will become poorer collectively.

If your real supplies are taken away by someone using some tricks, you will become poor.

"The world is too dangerous, but I can't be robbed for nothing!"

"We have to find a way to get the wealth back from Levender."

This wealth is not the circulating currency such as gold and silver, but various physical materials used in all aspects of society.

"But how do I get it?"

This can be done. The 'Lightning Messenger' he just sold is an anti-pocket-stealing operation.

But he can't do too much of this because he is too weak now, and if he reveals too many good things, people will target him.

While thinking about specific measures, there was a knock on the door of the government study. It was Muradi who arrived.

He and Sir Maxim were on the same journey, but not in the same group.

The Jazz left, but he is still here, and the handover of his business with Rosen has not been completed.

"Baron, my goods are ready. When are you free?"

Soon, Rosen saw Muradi's goods.

The shipment was placed in a newly constructed warehouse in Crescent City.

Among them there are 150 sheep, 120 ewes and 30 rams.

60 for men, 10 for women and 50 for men.

The common feature of this batch of goods is 'young, ordinary appearance (referring to people), but well-proportioned body, with excellent potential for transformation'.

It is obvious that the sheep are targeting the low-end market, while the people are targeting the high-end market, taking into account the tastes of both men and women. Muradi is truly a professional brothel owner.

But there are also some difficult to understand features.

Rosen stood at the door of the warehouse, looking at the cargo list carefully in his hand, and couldn't help asking: "Are male prostitutes so popular in Levender?"

Among the 60 people who went for the high-end route, there were five times as many men as women, which is really out of line.

Muradi shrugged his shoulders and said speechlessly: "My queen mother likes handsome men very much, and a group of noble ladies follow suit. And they are often very generous."

"Extraordinarily generous?"

Rosen savored these five words carefully, then turned to look at Muradi: "Can you give me an example?"

"The Queen Mother has a male favorite, who was born a commoner, but is now one of the cabinet ministers. I admit that this male favorite has good abilities, but if it weren't for the Queen Mother's favor, he would never have been able to hold such a high position and obtain a barony!"

Muradi looked angrily as if to say "Why not me?"

Rosen exclaimed: "How generous!"

Suddenly, I had an idea: "Since the market for ladies is so huge, and what they need is not real goods, but fancy services. Isn't this exactly what I am good at?"

The Queen Mother's affair is essentially a reflection of the extravagance of the upper class.

Extravagance will ruin the lives of ordinary people and the country, the effect is the same.

So he continued to look at the detailed transformation requirements, and while reading, he passed the requirements to Lai Fu.

While waiting for Lai Fu to build the model, he said, "Muradi, I have a new idea about transfiguration. Do you want to listen to it?"

Muradi nodded without hesitation: "Of course."

He now admired Rosen's abilities very much, especially his ability to transform, because the other party had just cured Sir Maxim's serious illness.

"You see, the foundations of these goods are actually very ordinary, especially their personalities. They are all ordinary people. I think you should get a group of smart people with good brains here."

"Ah?" Muradi didn't quite understand.

Rosen whispered in his mind instead: "Study those truly wealthy and powerful ladies, get to know their preferences in depth, and then transform these smart people into what they need for long-term trading."

Muradi understood as soon as he heard it. His eyes lit up, but then he hesitated again.

"You can make a lot of money by doing this, but the risks are not small. After all, this will make people hate you, and noble ladies who dare to keep male lovers usually have powerful backgrounds."

Of course Lawson understands that there are risks. How can there be no risk when using tricks to get money?

But the risk is still controllable. As long as you are careful and cautious, you won't get into trouble.

So he whispered, "You can find a few pairs of white gloves. When it comes to transformation, I will absolutely support you 100%. Let me tell you, I have recently developed an extraordinary transformation technique. The effect is very secretive and can avoid all the transformation detection methods currently popular on the market."

"Of course, this extraordinary transformation is also very expensive, but as long as you are willing to work hard, I will be responsible for the transformation."

Muradi's face showed a struggle.

But he is a man with great execution and adventurous spirit, otherwise he would not have come all the way to invest in Rosen just because of some unfounded speculation.

After a moment's hesitation, he nodded in agreement: "I'll do it!"

Rosen grinned and said, "That's right."

"I will only charge for Transfiguration. It will be more expensive, of course. But as long as you choose the right target, I guarantee you won't lose money."

He planned to just be a behind-the-scenes person and collect steady pay.

Muradi was mentally prepared for this. In fact, he had already thought of many ways to empty the lady's pocket, but he just couldn't find a handsome man.

Now that the Baron has joined, the last link is filled! His eyes sparkled with excitement: "Hey~~ Baron, I can't wait to start the action."

Rosen smiled in his heart but remained expressionless on his face.

At this time, Lai Fu had already built the model.

He then took out the arcane lattice that he had prepared long ago, and using the arcane transformation energy that had been stored in it, he began to fulfill the transaction agreement between the two parties.

This method of using the pre-stored energy in the lattice to perform large-scale deformation is very expensive and unaffordable for most people, but it can amplify the effect of a person's magic power by about 30 to 200 times.

Rosen was now apparently an intermediate wizard. He used all his magic power to control rather than transform the transformation energy, and he was barely able to transform all the people and sheep present.

In the warehouse, there were handsome and masculine men and beautiful and attractive women, each with their own charm. Muradi was dazzled and he became more and more confident in Rosen's abilities.

He immediately took the group back to Levender and promised to come back as soon as possible.

Rosen was not idle either.

The second batch of supplies has arrived, and he has to quickly start the next step.

This step has a name, called the 'Island Guard Plan'.

As he makes more and more money, no matter how hard he tries to avoid it, the White Sturgeon Island will inevitably attract more and more attention.

If there is not enough military force to protect it, then he is just helping others to make money.
