After Aslan came out, he did not return to Tianping Chamber of Commerce immediately. Instead, he swaggered to a restaurant opposite Maxim Federal Commercial Bank and monitored Maxim Federal Commercial Bank without any concealment.
In fact, almost all the people in the restaurant now are nobles and businessmen in Kyoto, and they are all nervously paying attention to the situation of gold coins and mark coins.
This restaurant was entirely purchased by Aslan, and it has gradually become the most popular restaurant on this street.
Nowadays, the restaurant is not only booming in business, but also has several large blackboards hung in the center, with the current exchange price of gold coins and mark coins written on them, followed by the time.
Just by looking at it, everyone can understand that this time is updated every half hour.
As expected, the Maxim Federal Commercial Bank took action. Instead of immediately releasing a large amount of gold coins, it instead offered many preferential policies such as low interest rates for loan aristocrats and businessmen, and at the same time guaranteed that repayments would be mainly in Mark coins.
The price of gold coins and mark coins dropped to 1, which made many nobles in the restaurant heave a sigh of relief.
Aslan looked at the policies of Maxim Federal Commercial Bank, smiled slightly and shook his head.
Soon the Kyoto Commercial Bank also ignored the national policy. From now on, all taxes paid by various places will be mainly in gold coins. If you want to pay taxes in Mark coins, you must add additional value-added tax, which invisibly lowers the price of Mark coins.
The two sides have been using various policies and plans to lower each other's prices. The two sides have not directly engaged in real-life combat. They are still in the process of trial and error. However, the purchase price on the black market also changes according to the plans of both parties.
Aslan asked Veretta to contact Cu Chulainn.
"Let the plan begin! Crush Maxim Federal Trading Company in one fell swoop."
Veretta nodded and quickly turned around and left.
Nomeli sat quietly on the side, cutting steak for Aslan.
There was a shocking change in the black market, with someone exchanging Marks at a price of 2:1.
The exchange rate on the big blackboard in the restaurant quickly changed to two to one. At this moment, the noble and the businessman were no longer calm, and many small nobles and businessmen rushed directly into Maxim Federal Trading Company.
Aslan also squeezed into Maxim Federal Commercial Bank in a slow and orderly manner and waited directly in the VIP room for Horns' arrival.
After a while, Horns wiped the sweat from his forehead and came in cursing.
"The guy in the black market must be crazy. If the price of the mark drops, not only the Kyoto Commercial Bank, but the economy of the entire Cleveland province will collapse."
Horns' words were actually meant for Aslan.
Aslan smiled slightly at this. Of course he knew this truth, but he still wanted to do it. The reason was very simple. He wanted to cripple the Maxim Federal Trading Company in the Kingdom of Cleveland at once.
The biggest trouble in the economic collapse of the entire Cleveland province was inflation. The biggest losses were mainly caused by nobles and wealthy businessmen. After all, those who could save in Maxim Federal Commercial Bank were almost impossible to be civilians, and of course risk-takers were not counted.
Once these people's trust in Maxim Federal Commercial Bank collapses, it will be difficult for Maxim Federal Commercial Bank to continue to absorb savings funds.
Not only the Kyoto area, but also all over the country, there will be runs. After all, nobles have a tradition of hiding gold coins in the past. Now, rather than leaving them to depreciate in Maxim Federal Trading Bank, it is better to keep them at home to look safe.
As for the consequences of inflation, that was not a problem that Aslan considered. That was a problem that the little emperor and the regent had to consider.
"Now I just want to exchange for gold coins and put them away. I feel that gold coins are more reassuring than mark coins." Aslan said with a slight smile.
Of course Horns knows this truth. After all, Mark coins are essentially printed on paper, and they rely entirely on the credit of the Maxim Federation for consumption.
"Your Excellency, Marquis, please rest assured that even if the mark currency in Kyoto depreciates, you can go to other areas to use it, and I assure you that we can help you purchase various supplies in large quantities, as long as you pay in mark currency."
Horns gritted his teeth and said.
"Oh!" Aslan suddenly became interested. It seems that Maxim Federal Commercial Bank has really worked hard to retain depositors.
"Is it really possible to use any supplies?" Aslan asked.
"Except for some strategic supplies?" Horns said quickly.
Aslan nodded in understanding, picked up the pen on the table and started writing, and then handed the list to Horns. Horns just glanced at it and his eyes couldn't help but stare.
The supplies inside are not valuable items, they are all ordinary large-ticket items, but the quantity purchased by Aslan was a bit large.
Grain can easily reach millions of tons, and for most places it is measured in tens of thousands of kilograms. Isn’t this an exaggeration? This amount of grain is enough to feed a population of five to six million people for a year.
There are 100,000 tons of steel ingots. Why does Aslan need so much steel? Even if he rebels and makes weapons, he won't need so much!
"Your Majesty the Marquis, are you purchasing too much?" Horns swallowed and said.
Aslan smiled and shook his head.
"To tell you the truth, my Mero region really doesn't produce food. It relies entirely on industry and commerce to support itself. So I have to purchase a large amount of food reserves, as long as steel materials and so on. You know the main business of my territory very well."
Silan said with a helpless expression.
"But don't worry, if I can purchase these things, I will not use Maxim Federal Commercial Bank's money and directly trade with Mark coins. I don't even mind visiting Maxim Federal Commercial Bank once."
Aslan's words made Horns' eyes light up. His only consideration now was that Aslan purchased too few supplies.
If Aslan deposits a large amount of Mark coins in Maxim Federal Commercial Bank in one fell swoop, it can greatly increase the confidence of other nobles and businessmen.
"Please rest assured, Lord Marquis, I will arrange for manpower to send the goods to the Merlot area as soon as possible." Horns said immediately.
Aslan also smiled and shook hands with Horns to express his gratitude.
But as soon as he left Maxim Federal Commercial Bank, Aslan said to Veretta who had just returned: "The exchange rate has increased by 1."
Veretta nodded and turned to leave again. Nomeli looked at Aslan in confusion.
"Master, I don't quite understand!"
Aslan smiled and said: "Maxim Federation is the largest commercial empire in the Sino Continent. It has large storage warehouses all over the continent. It is no exaggeration to say that they have the power to control prices across the continent. This time the financial
After the storm, the entire Kingdom of Cleveland will enter inflation. In order to make up for this loss, the Maxim Federation will definitely play tricks on commodity prices. The wool comes from the sheep, and then the people will be the unlucky ones."
