Chapter 239 Ponzi scheme, I will earn from whoever has money (Ch 239)

In the core of the quiet Star Forest.
The sun shines through the lush branches and leaves onto the ground, dotted with stars. The air is filled with the fragrance of the primeval forest. Not far away, a clear pool of water is rippling.
Di Tian frowned, as if he was thinking about something. After a long while, he said carefully: “My Lord, if you sign a contract with that boy, he is indeed a rich man among humans, but he is not worthy of your status. Please think twice!”
“Yes, my lord. If you sign a contract with him, then aren’t we inferior to him for nothing? How dare a green-haired boy like him…” It was a rare occasion for Xiong Jun to stand with Emperor Tian. He scratched his bald head helplessly and spread his hands.
The surroundings were unusually quiet, but almost all the creatures that could be called ferocious beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest appeared, except for the addition of a lavender silhouette.
“I will take care of this matter myself.” The Silver Dragon King’s long voice came from the bottom of the lake.
The dragon’s roar also had a sense of oppression, and everyone’s heart trembled.
“That child has had a pure heart from the beginning to the end. He was able to attract a fragment of a demigod’s soul, the two kings of the Far North and that fat bug, and even now he has bewitched the auspicious beast. This cannot be explained by personal charm. There is another theory… that is, humans are the spirits of all things, and there is also the concept of destiny.” The Silver Dragon King said lightly.
“Auspicious beast?!!” The corner of Di Tian’s mouth twitched and his fists clenched instantly.
It seemed as if the space around him was distorted. To be honest, if the master hadn’t been there, he would have gone to the human world to find that boy and have a good talk with him about when he hooked up with his auspicious beast…
but……
The existence of the Lord of the Far North, Tianmeng and even the fragments of Alex did surprise him. Any one of them was definitely one of the best on the continent, but when they got together… were they just playing mahjong?
“Is the big bug here too?” Mr. Xiong asked with some surprise.
The King of Ten Thousand Demons and the Red King also exchanged glances, both of them showing shock.
“Forget about that big bug. That child has devoted himself to our soul beast clan and worked hard day and night. Yet you are still thinking about his chance. What’s the difference between you and an ungrateful wolves?” The Silver Dragon King’s voice sounded slightly displeased.
“This…is the master’s order, so we naturally dare not go beyond it.” Di Tian said with a wry smile.
Xiong Jun opened his mouth, then closed it with some distress.
Among them, he coveted the big bug the most. The fifth catastrophe was approaching. If Tianmeng was there, his chances of passing it would increase by a full 10%!
But as Di Tian said, no one in the entire Star Dou Great Forest dared to disobey the master’s orders.
This is admiration and respect that comes from the bottom of my heart.
“That girl had a good time in the human city. Unfortunately, before she left, the wine made from the spiritual plants that I had treasured for more than 7,000 years went bad. I was planning to use it to celebrate after the next breakthrough…” The King of Ten Thousand Demons saw that the atmosphere was a bit awkward, so he laughed.
He was dressed in dark green clothes and had a feminine and handsome face.
“Hey, what’s that? The treasure house that I have treasured for many years was robbed clean by her before she left! There were all kinds of rare spiritual herbs and spiritual stones in it, but when I woke up in the morning, only some leftovers were left.” The Red King widened his eyes and denounced this vile behavior.
“Alright, alright…”
Xiong Jun waved his hands in a casual manner, “Although the Tears of the Forest that I have collected for tens of thousands of years have also been taken away, as long as the child is happy, it’s good. Seeing how stingy you all are…”
“Tears of the Forest, is that yours?” The Silver Dragon King suddenly asked in surprise.
Mr. Xiong:?
“It seems that she gave your Tear of the Forest to Xu Cheng. No wonder when we first met, the child had a huge Tear of the Forest on his wrist. I was surprised at his chance…” The Silver Dragon King chuckled.
Xiong Jun: “…”
“Zhao! I can’t stand it anymore, both of you let me go! I want to go to the human city myself and bring that brat back, don’t stop me!!!”
“No, there’s no need, Brother Xiong. As long as the child is happy, that’s all.” Chi Wang consoled him while holding his arm.
The King of Ten Thousand Demons also hurriedly grabbed the other arm.
“Okay, that child will go to Shrek Academy then, and I will be with him to protect him and make sure nothing goes wrong.” The Silver Dragon King said in a light voice.
“Carry it with you—protection!” Di Tian’s words seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth, and his fists clenched again.
His master went to serve as a personal bodyguard for a human.
Does this kid really have such great magic power?
“You don’t understand him at all. That child is considerate and kind, and has great talent. He is a rare talent. Besides, protecting him is also protecting the future of my soul beast.”
“Di Tian, ​​do what you should do. If I see you touching him, don’t blame me for being merciless!”
The Silver Dragon King said in a deep voice.
Emperor Tian: “…”
His heart was broken.
…
“We are short of money, everywhere… Your Highness, the national treasury is now empty, and the soul guide research and development funds required by Mingde Hall are more than twice as high as in previous years. Your Highness also wants to build underground railways in various places, which is another not small expense. Add to that the war that was launched a few days ago, the loss and replacement of soul guides, the military salary, etc., my hair is almost white…”
As soon as the council started, the old man said with a worried look on his face.
He is the one who succeeded the Prime Minister. His strength is at the bottom compared to everyone present, but he is in charge of most of the operations of the prosperous city of Mingdu.
It was the same meeting room where the last military expedition was discussed. There were only a handful of people there, but it brought together the top leaders of the Sun and Moon Empire.
Xu Cheng glanced at the empty first seat and his mouth twitched.
My cheap dad didn’t even come this time. I don’t know if he was too tired to deal with all these things or if he had completely delegated power to me.
Hearing this, several people around also looked at Xu Cheng.
Waiting for the latter’s answer.
Now that Xu Zhen is gone, it is obvious that Xu Cheng is the “regent” he pushed forward. Although anyone with a discerning eye can see it, there is still a big difference between a complete statement and an ambiguous attitude.
“Master Jing…” Xu Cheng looked at Jing Hongchen who was standing beside him.
The latter smiled bitterly and said, “Sorry, Cheng, the soul power condensing soul guide still has some defects. I have already solved them overnight. If you want to mass produce it, I am afraid it will take at least more than a month.”
“Well… it’s okay, Master Jing, you can handle this matter as you see fit. There’s no need to pursue speed.”
I thought Xu Cheng would be helpless, but the latter just waved his hand casually.
“Changing the currency takes a long time and a long cycle. By the time we are ready to harvest, I am afraid that this difficulty will have been overcome. Besides, the three countries in the original continent have a solid foundation, so it doesn’t matter if we harvest a few more times.”
“so……”
Xu Cheng gave instructions for a moment, then waved his hand casually as everyone stared in amazement: “Everyone, remember to be quick and don’t give the other side time to react.”
Although a famous scam in the past life relied on a negative information gap, it was finally exposed as a scam after a research model speculated that the cost of completing the project would far exceed what could be accomplished in this era.
If he wants to steal the opponent’s attention, he naturally has to be quick, accurate and ruthless, not giving the opponent a chance to react.
Although Douluo Continent is a place with a limited IQ, it is almost impossible to find such a mathematical genius…
“Your idea is indeed shocking, but I have to remind you… There are many hidden clans in the original continent, such as the Haotian Sect. It is really not worth it if you really annoy them.” The old man thought.
“How about, in the end, the gentry’s money is returned in full, and the people’s money…”
“What money can the people have?”
“Hey, there is strength in numbers. Besides, everyone always has some savings. Besides, the base number is there, at least billions of people. As long as the scope of communication is wide enough, each person will get a gold soul coin, which is also a huge profit!”
“I don’t want to make money from poor people. The nobles have already deferred taxes for hundreds of years.” Xu Cheng glanced at the minister.
“If you don’t want to make money from the poor, then whose money do you want to make?” the Prime Minister said in a daze.
“Whoever has money will earn it…” Xu Cheng grinned.
As for this group of hidden clans, some of them surrendered to the Sun-Moon Empire early, so he doesn’t mind letting them go, allowing them to integrate into the Sun-Moon, and also rise to prominence with their family members.
But those who are unwilling to surrender will be liquidated sooner or later. Even if the Haotian Sect comes to kill them, will they still be afraid of him?
Was I brought up by fear?
The main targets are Shrek and Haotian Sect!
The former is rich, needless to say, and the latter is actually a hidden wealthy family. Although seemingly poor, according to Wang Dong’er, they have countless top-level soul bones, spiritual medicines, and even a considerable amount of gold soul coins. It is not an exaggeration to say that they are as rich as a country…
…
The imperial capital of Tianhun.
On a street corner.
It was getting dark at this time. A group of men who had been busy all day were leisurely lying in the corner, holding their pipes, chatting about their busy day.
“Hey, have you heard? Recently, the Ultron Chamber of Commerce has launched a new activity. As long as you invest money, you will earn 50% net profit in five days!”
Suddenly a young boy spoke up.
“There is such a good thing? Where did you hear it?” an older servant asked suspiciously.
“When I was cleaning the back room today, I happened to hear the master and his mistress chatting. I heard that the master was very interested, but his mistress was a little worried. She advised the master to be cautious, so she put it on hold for the time being, saying that she would wait and see after five days when the people who invested the money got their rewards.” The young servant said mysteriously.
“And today, I took the opportunity to go to the blacksmith shop to take a look. It was packed with people, all of whom were distinguished guests. The person explained that it was because the Sun-Moon Empire stopped supplying any soul guides, so the same thing only costs 200 gold soul coins in Mingdu, but it has to be sold at least three times the price in our Tianhun territory. Their Ao Chuang Chamber of Commerce has this channel. They can buy the goods at the original price in the Sun-Moon territory, and then sell them to Tianhun, Douling and various places at more than double the price. In this way, they can make twice the money, and everyone wins. Then you invest money in it, and you become a shareholder. With this huge profit, it is more than enough to earn your 50% interest within five days.”
“Hey, then why didn’t you vote? One silver soul coin is also money.” Someone laughed.
“They don’t think highly of it. They say the one-time payment must be more than 10,000 Gold Soul Coins. They won’t accept money from poor people…” said the young servant dejectedly.
“That’s a pity…”
The corner is just a microcosm of the huge Tianhun City and even the entire original Douluo Continent.
As this incident came out, it instantly became popular in the entire aristocratic circle.
scam?
Most people will be wary.
But with the arrival of the first rebate, many nobles became greedy and poured money into it. After all, their friends had successful cases, and this complete source of capital circulation was convincing enough, so it became popular in various countries for a while.
Shrek Academy.
Poseidon Pavilion.
Everyone sat upright in their chairs with complicated expressions.
Although Moon’s hair is gray, he is energetic and full of vitality. Although he was seriously injured in the life-and-death battle not long ago, Ah Yin’s life extension is by no means false. He was told to live out his peak life for two years. In just a few days, he has recovered a lot with almost no sequelae, unlike before – as brittle as paper.
“What do you think about this?” Moon glanced at the newspaper and spoke thoughtfully.
“Mr. Mu, let’s hurry up! This is a rare opportunity, if we don’t rush now it will be gone!” Xuan Zi said anxiously.
Seeing the Three Kingdoms nobles around him making money, he was extremely jealous.
It’s not that Shrek has no money, he’s just unhappy to see these guys making money while Shrek just watches.
“Old Lin, you are in charge of Jubao Pavilion and the financial power of the college is in your hands. What do you think about this matter?” Moon En ignored Xuanzi and looked at an old woman.
“This is indeed feasible. After all, the capital chain is perfect. As long as there are channels from Sun and Moon, we can really make money.” Old Lin pondered for a moment and gave an affirmative answer.
“Teacher, stop hesitating. Just yesterday, the Douling Royal Family raked in 200 million gold soul coins!” Yan Shaozhe was also a little anxious. After all, he saw with his own eyes that the money actually flowed into the other side’s pockets. Who wouldn’t be anxious?
“But…” Moon frowned slightly as he looked at everyone saying yes.
He always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn’t put his finger on it.
Caution asked him to think about it again, but the situation was pressing now. If he hesitated any longer, he might really lose money…
“Okay, let’s invest 200 million gold soul coins to test the waters first. If it works, we can increase the amount!” Moon said steadily.
Although everyone was still somewhat dissatisfied, Moon suppressed their dissatisfaction.
“Wait and see!”
…
“Shrek voted?”
Sun and Moon Empire.
Xu Cheng put one hand around Juzi’s slender waist and rubbed her belly, while holding the envelope in the other hand, he grinned.
This big fish was finally caught in the net.
However, two hundred million soul coins were much less than he had expected.
We are a wealthy Shrek Academy, it is not possible that we can’t even take out 100 million gold soul coins? If we can’t take it out, we can sell it. There are so many treasures in the Treasure Pavilion, can’t we take out a loan?
He glanced at the current funds again. It was purely a scam. He didn’t invest a penny. He relied on his rhetoric to deceive people until now. There were at least 500 million gold soul coins on the account, and the number was still increasing.
The speed at which funds are deposited into the account has skyrocketed, and the so-called 50% return seems insignificant in comparison.
After all, most people will not take out the Gold Soul Coins after making money, but keep them for further investment.
This is the core of the Ponzi scheme.
In the previous life, this scam had been fully uncovered and most people would not be fooled. But when the Ponzi scheme first appeared, its scope was very wide and even princes and nobles rushed to wave their banknotes, wanting to “have a piece of the pie.”
“Let Shrek sink deeper…” Xu Cheng said with a smile.
