Chapter 1370 reinforcements are coming
Since Zhou Qingfeng founded the trade base of Merida, the city's powerful people have made a fortune. The coal transferred from northern Mexico alone has exceeded 100,000 tons every month. These are the fuels opened for acquisition by the Aurora Legion and the energy to drive the operation of the Legion's industrial system.
The financial industry of the transit port is naturally very developed. There are several banks in Merida City, and the largest one is naturally opened in the name of the Governor. Because it has the largest name, it is naturally the primary financial service provider for the powerful and wealthy in the city.
Now, Governor Alfonso shows off the war bonds, and the transaction is completed directly from the account of the powerful and powerful in the city. The number 20 and 30 people, led by Mr. Paramount, the chairman of the Chamber of Commerce, suddenly felt as uncomfortable as their parents.
Mr. Paramount walked out of Merida City Hall crying, holding a delicate little box in his hand, with stacks of unknown war bonds.
These bonds are also very exquisitely printed, with watermarks, metal wires, color-changing inks, and anti-counterfeiting codes. Everything looks very professional, but the words "Special War Bond" are printed on them, but they are unable to like it. Although a piece of 10 gold coins on the face value, it gives people the feeling of waste paper.
A total of 50,000 gold coins flew like this, and Mr. Paramount really wanted to cry. He wished he could throw all the bonds in his hand into the trash can, but think about it, maybe he could win this war..., if he won this bond, he might not be able to make money!
Governor Alfonso issued a total of five million gold coins in war bonds. The first batch of bonds was sold among the powerful people in Merida through the form of levies. However, only a very small number of them were sold, and the remaining ones were sold publicly by the Governor's Reserve Bank of Merida.
But at this time, no ghost will buy it, and the people who were assigned to it were all gritting their teeth. Governor Alfonso is no longer a good person who can lead them to make money, and he becomes a big villain who grabs money from their pockets in a blink of an eye.
Mr. Paramount was in a daze and held the small box containing the bonds and got into his car and slowly returned home. While he was saddened by the sharp shrinkage of his property, he suddenly heard a rattle of mechanical sounds in front of him, and the ground was trembling slightly.
"What's going on?" Mr. Paramount was shocked and asked the driver in the front row. It was the war time, and Cancun was destroyed by missiles. Is it Merida's turn now?
However, the driver in front row also looked ahead in surprise, and the steering wheel in his hand turned repeatedly, and the car urgently avoided one side of the road. Mr. Paramount hurriedly jumped out of the car and looked in surprise at dozens of meters away, an armored unit was driving in the opposite direction.
"Where did the army come from?" Mr. Paramount could not remember when there was such a unit in the city. One after another, the chariots drove by in front of him, only one or two meters away. Feeling these huge objects of dozens of tons up close, you can feel the power and terror of war weapons.
The beginning of this unit was more than 30 m60a3s, which seemed to be dragged out directly from the US military's combat readiness warehouse. I remember that during the Gulf War, the US Army drove the "Abrams", and the "Fourth Class" drove these old "Bartons" and beat Saddam up.
Unexpectedly, these old guys appeared again.
The equipment behind the old "Barton" was much shabby. Most of them were a large number of French chariots equipped by the Mexican Army, such as the modified infantry chariots of the Amx series. However, the number of these chariots was extremely large, with hundreds of them. It is extremely rare to have such powerful troops these days.
Although he didn't quite understand what was going on, Mr. Paramount suddenly felt that the small box that was light and as if nothing had happened became extremely hot. The war bonds with a denomination of 50,000 gold coins immediately became valuable from useless waste paper.
The chariots in front drove past, and there was a battalion of towed artillery. Behind the artillery were motorized infantry, all of whom were moving forward in trucks. Judging from the appearance of the soldiers, most of them did not look like local Mexican troops,...
Mr. Paramount approached a troop truck and chased after him for a few steps, shouting loudly to the soldiers on the truck, "Hey, boy, where did you come from?"
"Texas." A soldier holding a gun replied coldly, as if they were not very interested.
"Texas? Are you Incred's troops?" Mr. Paramount was almost happy in his heart. In fact, he had already seen the soldiers' uniforms clearly. The alienated star-striped flag patterns on the uniforms had already indicated the identity of the troops.
The soldiers holding the gun nodded, and the convoy quickly left. Mr. Paramount chased after him for two or three hundred meters and asked his own questions. Finally, he was exhausted and panting, but he was also extremely happy.
It seems that Incredre not only sent the navy and air force to block Cuba, but now he actually sent troops to participate in the war directly. In this way, the war is really likely to win a great victory!
Think about it, the wealth of the Aurora Legion in Cuba is definitely more than five million gold coins, and the things that can be divided up will be far more than the amount of war bonds.
Hiss..., thinking of this, Mr. Paramount suddenly felt a little hot. He kept saying to himself, "Calm down, calm down", but his heart couldn't calm down. In the end, he regained his normal thinking ability by constantly slapping his head.
"Change and go back to the town hall." Mr. Paramount ran back to his car and ordered the driver.
The driver turned around and said, "Sir, we are about to get home."
"What else do you want to go back to this time? Go to the Town Hall right away!" Under Mr. Paramount's angrily urging, the car that had just come out of the Town Hall immediately drove back.
But when he arrived at the town hall, Mr. Paramount found that there was no one here, and even the front line commander Mr. Girish, who was the stronghold as his base, was not there. He asked the guard at the door, "Where have everyone gone?"
"Go to the Governor's Mansion," said the guard.
"Ah, it's so damn! I should have thought of going to the Governor's House at this time." Mr. Paramount was deeply regretful and quickly got in the car and rushed to the Governor's House.
When Paramount's driver rushed to the place, he was cursing the Governor as a vampire and a gangster, all the powerful people in the city appeared again.
But these scheming guys are now maintaining a high degree of tacit understanding and calmness. They look at each other for a few seconds and start chatting. After half a day, they each tentatively talk about bonds.
Mr. Paramount swept the living room left and right, but he didn't see Governor Alfonso. He walked into the living room of the Governor's Mansion in a hurry, and talked with a bunch of visitors as if nothing had happened.
"Hear? The Merida Reserve Bank suddenly announced that it had temporarily stopped the sale of war bonds."
"I know, the order is said to be from Mexico City. President Diago seems interested in bringing the power to issue bonds to the central government."
"I also heard that the issuance of bonds this time will be expanded from five million to five million gold coins. And a bond exchange will be established to provide financial services specifically for this batch of bonds."
Almost in the blink of an eye, all kinds of specious news fell from the sky like snowflakes. Mr. Paramount wandered around the crowd, his face still on his face, but he was thinking repeatedly in his heart.
At this time, the old butler Martin walked into the living room and said loudly: "Your Governor is going to have a lunch break. Now you don't see anyone. Go back."
The situation has changed drastically now, and everyone is willing to leave at this moment? They quickly smiled and sent various replies.
"As long as you rest, we can wait."
"His Governor must rest well, we all hope he is healthy."
"Butler Martin, I am Hading. When the Governor wakes up, please inform me. His most loyal friend hopes to talk to him."
"Hadin, get out of here. You are not a loyal friend of the Governor. Butler Martin, I am Paramount, the loyal dog of the Governor. Please inform the Governor that I am waiting for his summons."
