Chapter 79:


    13. Golden War  3


    L.V.C. Financial. Assoon as it established itselfinthe CityofLondon, it quickly grewtothe point thatnearby financial andsecurities firms becamevery wary of it and closely monitored it.


    Becauseoftheirunusual returns and growth, there was a lot of gossipamongthe financiersworking in theCity of Londonaboutthe trueidentityofL.V.C. Financial.


    It was a secret organizationraised by the British royal family, apany foundedbyfallen foreignaristocrats, aprivate safe for theRussian Tsar, etc.


    Themost likelystorywas rumoredtobea financialsubsidiary organizedbyEuropeanJews. Quick-witted, thefinanciers knew who thetrue rulersofLondonsfinancial marketswere. MosesMendelssohn, Mayer AmschelRothschild, Noah DIsraeli, etc.[1]


    These European Jews, who crossed the StraitofDoverand settledinthe Thames basin in thepast, had built ahuge financialempire withtheirown information circles, greed and obsessionfor gold, and eyes to judge the world situation.


    Still, Jews were treatedwith disdain wherever theywent in Europe, but very few knew thatthe heart of Europes richesteconomy hadalready bea Jewishyground.


    L.V.C. Financialwas alsosuspected of belonging to Jews becauseitwas following in thesame footstepsaspreviousJewish capital.


    Of course, L.V.C. Financials bond yields andgrowth rates wereremarkable even wheparedtoJewish capital.


    Knock, knock, knock


    ItsCarlene, the secretary, boss.


    Come on in.


    Theownerofthispany, which hadturned Londons financial district upsidedown in a short period of time, wasthoroughly veiledand contributed to anumber of conspiracytheories.


    Nevertheless, Britishobjectors werebusy entrusting L.V.C. Financialwith their property.


    There was no barrier to money. What was theuse of knowingtheiridentity, their purposeortheirstatus? As long as theycouldmake money. The hugereturns andhit rates thattheipany wasbreakingeverymonthdid not lie.


    A manand his group arelooking forthe boss. He saidthat allI have to do is tellyou I broughtsolidus gold coins (the currency of the ByzantineEmpire).


    Theyrevery suspicious. Theatmosphere aroundthem wassoheavyand seriousthat I toldthem to wait Shall we callthe guards andkick them out?


    No. Bring themin, here, politely.


    Allright, boss.


    Not longafter, agroupoffour menwith solidus goldcoinsappearedinthe office of theboss of L.V.C. Financial.


    Despite facingthe bossofL.V.C. Financial, whoseidentityand appearanceremainedunknown to thepublic, theexpressionsofthe group memberswere calm.


    Theyindeed havetrue solidus goldcoins.


    Boss?


    All of yougoaway. I have something to talk about withthem.


    Okay, boss.


    L.V.C. Financialsboss sent awayall his clerks, secretaries and bodyguards. They closed thedoor after stepping outofthe office.


    One of thegroupmembers whobrought solidus coins quicklyput his eartothe closed door and examined thesituation outsideofthe office.


    The other twoscoured theinteriorofthe office. They searched notonly under thetableand the desk, butalso under thecarpet and insidethe closet.


    But it wasnot enough, and theylooked verycarefully to see if there wasany secret space by knocking on thewall or stomping on thefloor, and lookediftherewas anyone hidingingaps.


    Despitebeingthe headofL.V.C. Financial andthe owner of the room thatwas being turned upsidedown, the bossdid not do anything to stop their actions. On the contrary, heeven lighted the candles.


    Weve confirmed that theresnothing unusual.


    The group leadernodded at the attendants words. Heopened his mouth looking at the boss.


    Itsnice to meet you like this. My nameisBrunoDmbert, the agent of the government fromParis.


    This is asecret messagefrom HisMajesty theEmperor to thePresident of L.V.C. Financial, Lisarmont VictorColin. His generous message is thatyou may forgetyour past deeds.


    The presidentofL.V.C. Financial wrapped in aveil. Hewas Lisarmont VictorColin, one of thefraudulent taxcollectors of theFrench Empire, who disappeared fromParisona special missionand received Napoleon Bonapartes forgiveness.


    =


    You are leaving for Londonrightnow. Take overthe CityofLondon, Londons stock market, withmycapital there. I dont care how much lossisincurredinthe investmentprocess. I will provideyou withhuge investments andconfidential information, so just pay attentiontothe profit margin.


    Lisarmont Victor Colin. When he came across theStrait of Dover withthe slush fundofNapoleon, he had no great confidence in his ownsess.


    It was true thatColinhad worked as thefinance chief fora small Paris securitiespanycalled La Croix Rousse, but it was more ajob specialized in attractinginvestors thandirectlyrunning thefield.


    He, who had notseen much of the stock marketinParis, was going to theCity of Londonand seeded? Itwas likely to appearina third-rate novel writtenbya drunkard.


    Colin was forcedtotake on this workinordertoescape fromthe sight of the angry Emperor and survive. It wasjust like sellingthe future to live in the present.


    Heneverwanted to fegainthe sense of hopelessness andfear that he had experienced when he, hisaidesand observers satside by side in asmalloffice rented in theCity of London.


    Butthe first timeColinset footonthe London Stock Exchange, hewas abletodiscoverhis talentsthat hadbeen dormant for 39 years.


    LikePierre Corneille (one of the three greatest Frenchywrightsofthe 17thcentury)[2]who realized he was a genius when he first grabbeda quill pen.


    Britain willincreasethe amount of banknotesissued by the Bank of Enndand do quantitative easingtopay for thewar thathassted more thanfour years.


    Nueva Espaadereswar of independence with Spain, Peruvian rule expels Spanish miners abroad.


    TheGolden Lineofthe New World, heading forSeville andLondon, wascapturedand sunkbya frigate fleet of the UnitedStates. There will be manydifficulties in Ennds NewWorldrouteinthe future.


    Ifquantitative easing is carried out, the value of the spot willjump rtively as intion urs. Evenso, the British supplies are quickly being usedupfor war here and there. Attimeslike this, no oneislooking at agriculture Thewar withthe U.S. wouldhave damaged the ocean transporwork with the NewWorld.


    Afterobtaining information fromFrench spies thathad yet to be known andwere kept secret, Colinanalyzeditinhis own wayand madehis own judgment.


    He pushed funds into businessesresponsiblefor producing or distributingcropssuch as wheat, corn, and beans. He also directly purchased farms in dangerofbankruptcy. And Colinsinvestment wasa huge sess.


    Investment in gold during thewar always wins. Britain received goldfrom theNew World in exchange for providingfree supplies to Spain andPortugal. However, as the colonies dered independence, the procession of goldwas abruptly cut off.


    News from an ally, the UnitedStates, reached Colin as soonaspossiblewithout passing throughFrance. It wasthe result of Napoleons effortstogather information quickly.


    This gaveColinthe possibility to buy arge number of gold certificates beforeanyone elseinthe CityofLondon.


    The price of the certificate he boughtsoon doubled. Thesess of theinvestment wascontinuous.


    Napoleonsinitial capital of 3.1 milliontripled only after amonthand ahalf.


    Howeasy it is to make money! If I had known that I had thiskind of ability, I would havelivedmylife without having to suffersomuch!


    Thethrill thatColinfelt as he watched the soaring value of his chosensecurities, goods, and patents in realtime wasa wave of emotions thathehad never experienced in his life.


    Althoughthat wasthe result of theadditionofcapital andvarious ssified information fromthe French Emperor, it would have beenimpossible from the beginningwithout hisintuition, analysis andactions.


    Information alsodependedoninformation. To produceresults that could be derivedfrom it andtoinvest in securitiesthat could produce the highest returns. Thiswas Colinsreal ability.


    Having gained tremendous confidencefrom itspast sesses, Colin hit themarket withall the proceeds from the investment.


    This wasbecause he believed that Napoleon would makeupfor all thelosses if he keptsending investment statements.


    As a result, the guarantee wasnolonger necessary. Most of thestocks invested by L.V.C. Financialhad taken aright-upgraph.


    4 months.


    Itwas the time it tookafterthe L.V.C. logo appeared on the outskirtsofLondon for another financial giant to emergeand dominate Londons financial district.


    Thiswas the sess story of L.V.C. Financial, which London financiers and informants werelooking for.


    What does the Great Emperor wantfrom me?


    His Majestywantstoput an end to thelong-standing waronthe IberianPenins. In theprocess, hehopesthat youand L.V.C. Financialwill y abig role.


    Cough!


    Lisarmont VictorColinlet out an ufortable dry cough. Ignorantpeople weredifferent whenthey entered and left ace.


    Thesame wastrue of Colin. When Napoleon threatened his life and hisfamily, he waswilling to liet andlick thesolesofhis feet. He could do anything.


    However, hesettled in London, where Napoleon and Francecouldnot reach him, and madea fortune using his abilities(although mostofhis shares were tiedunderborrowednames), andgained asplendidreputation andhonorwith hisgreatsess.


    Colinsstomach wasbloated when he heard thatall of thiswas to be usedonly forNapoleonand France. Perhaps because he noticedthe sign, Bruno DAlemberts eyes became ugly.


    All of your property is in the name of the faithful cab membersofour government. In addition, allofyour familymembers aretreated well in Paris and lead astable and peaceful life. I believethat youwill notdoanythingoffending His Majestystolerance.


    Ahem Monsieur (Mister) has misunderstood. Although I livefar awayfrom my hometown, I have never forgotten that I ama proud citizen of the Empire. Im waiting for thedays when I can attribute allthis glory to HisMajesty theEmperor.


    Only thendid the faces of Dmbert and hisentourage openand Colin sighed inwardly.


    Imsure Mr. Colinknowsthat thecurrent atmosphere in London is extraordinary.


    Its becauseofthe situation in theIberian Penins, which is rushingtoa corner I hope you will convey my words to HisMajesty that I praise him forhis great victory.


    Therewas aheated debate in Westminster over the Peninsr War, and the main issue was thedispatchofthe new army.


    Were they going to invest to make suretochange the situationacross the penins, or werethey going to pull their feetoff the peninsand go backtothe old British strategy?


    Napoleonand the Frenchgovernment intended to drop ahuge bomb on Britain, who wasagonizing overit.


    Letsdecide now on an item to confirmmyidentityatour nextmeeting.


    Dmbert, whohad longtalked in secret in thepresident office of L.V.C., pulled a piece of paper out of hiscoat pocket. Thenhetore it diagonally and handedhalf of it to Colin.


    Its an Assignat notendbondsfrom theFrench Revolution)[3]thatisnot avable now. Itsa token to identify thenext person, so please dont lose it.


    Glory to theEmpire and HisMajesty.


    Glorytothe Empire andHis Majesty.


    AgentDmbert andthe other attendantsfrom Paris left the L.V.C. afterthesewords.


    As thesecretary and staff greeted them, Colin was quietly lostincontemtion, burning a cigarette.


    Its going to be abloody wind.
