Chapter 1260: Chameleons (in, ask for a monthly ticket)
"An explanation..." King Imholt looked at Mr. De Rossi and couldn't help but hesitate for a moment.
He looked at Mr. De Rossi up and down again, thinking secretly in his heart.
Newspapers and media from all over the country have been reporting that De Rossi misappropriated public funds, traded in Naian stock market, lost even his pants, and finally had to flee in a hurry to avoid debts.
Various reports have reached the point of overwhelming
Lord Lorraine controls most of the public opinion resources of this era.
The newspaper industry is also a capital industry, and the voices of rich people speak louder.
Detailed reports about Mr. De Rossi's huge losses in the stock market were everywhere. After several influential newspapers published them first, local newspapers everywhere rushed to reprint them, and it spread throughout the mainland in a very short period of time.
The newspaper told the whole story in a very negative light, portraying Mr. De Rossi and others as typical losers.
Under the bombardment of continuous public opinion offensive and various so-called inside information, King Inholt also experienced the process from disdain, to doubt, and then to belief. De Rossi indeed lost everything, and will
All the national taxes that should belong to you have been paid.
King Inholt was also angry about this
What is the national tax for?
Isn’t it just hard work that makes the king spend it~!
Grandma, I lost all my money, what can I do with my daughter? Do you know that luxury goods are very expensive nowadays?
Most importantly, how will you pay your subordinates?
Hire them with swords to suppress the common people and make the unruly people in the country obediently hand over their money.
Those bastards are all mothers who have breasts, and they recognize money but not people.
There is no awareness at all to learn and carry forward the most outstanding cultural and ideological traditions of our feudal society, such as "loyalty, filial piety, benevolence, justice, etiquette, wisdom and trust" and so on.
It's really not noble at all
If you give them money, they can do their job; if you don’t give them, they will make trouble.
Once wages are not paid, it is possible for them to copy others and rebel.
The incredible thing of auctioning the throne has not happened before in history.
Therefore, in order to calm down the anger of his subordinates, he also prepared for the worst, even if he had no choice but to use Ru Tou.
Even if he kills his own brother and nephew, he will never show mercy.
Compared with the seat under his butt, the so-called family love is nothing
And as far as he knew, his son was also ready to confiscate all the Duke's property in the name of making up for the losses of the people.
Based on his understanding of his son, that bitch must be involved in making a small fortune or something.
The Crown Prince just ransacked the old house of De Rossi and his son a few days ago, in the name of acting for his creditors, but I heard that he got a lot of money.
Seeing that he is getting older and older, it is estimated that he will not live for a few years. His son is becoming more and more powerful in the government and the opposition.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help turning his head and glanced at his son
I saw His Royal Highness holding the sword with his left hand and staring at the two people at the foot of the steps with a cold expression.
King Imholt sighed softly, his heart filled with... well, filled with pride and pride: He is indeed my son~!
If you can be so ruthless, you will definitely be a qualified king in the future.
It is not in vain that I have taught him so many years and dug so many pits for him to watch him jump.
but……
But now Mr. De Rossi said that he can give an explanation to all those who want debts.
And looking at his confident look, he doesn’t look like he’s bragging.13
Mr. De Rossi looked at him without hesitation, his eyes filled with confidence.
This cannot help but make King Imholt feel strange.
He put his hand on his chin and thought to himself: Are the rumors from the outside world wrong?
Did De Rossi and the others make money by trading stocks in Nai'an? Lorraine was so angry that she maliciously framed them?
No, it won’t~!
King Imholt immediately rejected the idea
This kind of news can be easily proven true or false
Although Lorraine is young, arrogant, domineering, shameless, obscene, lewd and lustful...
But he has used his actual actions to prove to the world that he is a politician who can sit at the huge gambling table of the world political situation and play cards with the supreme rulers.
This table cannot be filled by King Holt himself.
And with Lord Lorraine's usual temperament, he might even secretly cheat when everyone is playing cards.
No, he will definitely cheat
How could such a well-known old gangster tell such a lame lie that could be easily exposed because of such a trivial matter?
This is an overdraft of his personal credit.
Credibility is particularly important for a politician
It's just like the child who cried "Wolf". Once his lie is exposed and he loses credibility, no matter what he says in the future, no one will believe him~!
If what you say doesn't work, who will listen to your lies in the future?
This does not mean that politicians cannot lie
Rather: A politician can lie without hesitation, but the lie must look true and must not be exposed easily, at least not while he is alive~!
This is the most basic quality a politician needs to possess
Everyone is the leader and comes out to fool around. It is impossible not to know this.
So, that is to say...
Is this little bastard de Rossi lying to himself?
A loss of 10 million will be made up as soon as it is said to be made up?
Let alone the heir apparent of a young duke, what he can do on this continent will not exceed the amount of two hands.
They are all emperors and overlords such as the Emperor of Ruman Empire and Pope Vatican.
He is so brave~!
King Yinholt's body trembled, his eyes suddenly became sharp, and he stared at Mr. De Rossi coldly.
King Inholt was really angry: As a king, you can be hated, reviled, and loved by others, but a king must not be provoked~!
For a king, deception is the worst provocation~!
The crime of deceiving the emperor should not be punished
The atmosphere in the palace suddenly became tense.
A real murderous intent enveloped the entire hall.
Although it is midsummer, the room is as cold as an ice cave
Under his strong pressure, all the guards bowed to the ground, not daring to raise their heads. Even the crown prince beside him couldn't help but feel frightened, and his palms became sweaty.
When the king is angry, his head will fall to the ground
But opposite him, Mr. De Rossi faced Inholt's anger, but his expression did not change, and he still stood upright with his back straight.
And there is a faint elegant smile on his face, and his demeanor is calm, as if he is attending a palace banquet. He is worthy of being a noble man who has received an elite education.
A strange look flashed through Inholt's eyes: "This little brat is so brave."
Seeing Mr. De Rossi being so confident, he couldn't help but feel a little suspicious. He thought about the payment for a moment, and then thought of a blind spot in his thinking: Did he really get the money back?
This means that he made a lot of money in the stock market, but in order to hide it from others and avoid arousing the hatred of Lorraine and other Ruman Empires, he deliberately pretended to lose money.
Then he quietly ran back and deceived Lorraine?
Thinking of this, his expression suddenly relaxed.
If this is really the case, then Mr. De Rossi is really a talent that can be created.
Looking at the mainland, there are only a few people who can get a bargain from Lorraine.
Thinking back to the previous meeting at the United Nations General Assembly in Maple Leaf Danlin, he had joined forces with several countries and easily forced Lorraine away. This slapped the face of the old feudal imperialist country of the Ruman Empire.
And it’s still a crisp sound
The diplomatic ability displayed during this period is very admirable.
Based on this alone, you can know that Mr. De Rossi is also a qualified politician.
Although he is still some distance away from being a politician, he is still young. After a few more years of hard work, he will definitely become a politician.
By that time, it will be time for Matthias to take over the throne.
Then he can assist his son and govern the country
But now he realizes that he still underestimated Mr. De Rossi
This kid actually pulled off a lot of hair from Lorraine's iron cock, and he didn't even notice the guy who had copper plates strung on his ribs.
With this ability, he is no longer a politician, but an excellent politician. The Red Blood Dragon Rider
With such a shrewd and capable person, it is not impossible for him to pass the throne to this boy in the future...
He couldn't help but admire De Rossi very much, and for a moment he almost had the idea of Yi Chu.
But just thinking about it is like a young man with no house, no car and no money buying a lottery ticket on the street, thinking that he will win five million tomorrow.
Next to him, Crown Prince Matthias noticed that his father looked at Mr. De Rossi with such friendly and admiring eyes, and he suddenly felt a burst of resentment in his heart.
He has been a prince since he was born. For more than thirty years, no matter how many achievements he has made, King Imholt has never looked at him with such admiration.
Out of his understanding of his father's cold personality, Matthias instinctively felt a little fearful and clenched the hilt of the sword hard. He could hardly help but draw the sword out, stabbing De Rossi to death and destroying him.
Get rid of this threat
He coughed lightly, then took a step forward and shouted sternly: "An explanation? De Rossi, you said it so briskly.
Not to mention, you have misappropriated a huge amount of public funds and your finances are going bankrupt. Hundreds of people seeking debt from outside have already blocked the door. The matter has reached the United Nations, and the public is furious and the material debate is boiling.
It has had a huge and extremely bad negative impact on the country
Even with all the efforts of the whole country, it is still difficult for Youyou to speak
How can this matter be solved with just a broken box?"
Then he turned around, bowed to King Imholt, and said solemnly: "This matter is not only related to the people, but also related to diplomacy. It is extremely important. I hope my father will understand it."
King Inholt was immediately unhappy. Although what Mathias accused was true, specific matters must be analyzed in detail.
If you misappropriate public funds or lose money, it is naturally a heinous crime. If you don't kill it, it will not be enough for the people to get angry.
But if you make money, it will naturally be a reasonable capital operation.
Not only is he not guilty, but he is also guilty of merit
What's more, what he said later was to use the so-called "foreign friends" to suppress him.
What are the so-called "foreign friends"?
They're just a bunch of irritating, funny, obscene idiots who are always waiting to add insult to injury.
This really annoyed King Imholt.
Being the king of such a small country among several powerful empires is really frustrating. You have to consider the attitudes of the surrounding countries at all times.
But at least let yourself be happy for a while, and always say "allied countries are surprised" to make trouble with them?
Is this the consciousness a prince should have?
Is there such a thing as a son?
He glared at Mathias fiercely, realizing more and more that his son was not pleasing to the eye.
Then he turned to look at Mr. De Rossi and said, "My dear nephew, what do you say?"
Mr. De Rossi smiled lightly, then gently kicked the box in front of him with his foot, and said: "Your Majesty, my dear brother Marty, what he said is not bad..."
At this point, he put his hand on his chest and looked at Mathias seriously, changed his tone, and continued: "However, as a younger brother who respects his elder brother from the bottom of his heart, I need to
Remind him kindly
My dear brother, you have a large group of erudite scholars and teachers in the palace. Learning from their extensive wisdom and knowledge how to govern the country is a correct... er, appropriate path.
However, you have lived in the palace for a long time without contact with the outside world.
Therefore, it is not clear that such a thing "
He stretched out his hand to guide the direction and said loudly: "The world has changed. The world outside is developing at a rapid speed.
If you just learn from those old people who only know how to burrow into the pile of old papers, and are stubborn and conservative, you will only become stupid fools in the end, unable to learn the true skills of making a country rich and powerful."
Matthias suddenly became furious. He took a step forward and shouted sternly: "How brave! What did you say? Say it again if you dare?"
All De Rossi had to do was publicly accuse him of being a fool and not a qualified heir to the throne.
Matthias is furious
Mr. De Rossi sneered, and then asked: "My dear brother, how long has it been since you left Leiria?
Have you ever seen a vehicle that can run very fast without using oxen and horses, and can pull hundreds or even thousands of tons of vehicles at a time?
Have you ever seen a ship that spits out black smoke like a monster and flies at lightning speed day and night?
Do you know how the telegraph that travels thousands of miles in a blink of an eye works?
Do you know how terrifying that cannon is, which is as powerful as a Halberd-class magic cannon that sprays hellish flames and can easily destroy a city?
Do you know how many armies the Ruman Empire has equipped with new weapons?
Do you know how many war fortresses the Maple Leaf Danlin War Fortress Factory can produce in a month once it is fully operational?
Do you know how much money Ruman Empire, Fantino, and Maple Leaf Danlin spent to support all of this?
…”
His aggressive questions were like a heavy lead ball, hitting Mathias hard, leaving him speechless and retreating step by step.
At the end, Mathias suddenly felt a trip on his back foot, staggered, and almost fell to the ground. Only then did he realize that, unknowingly, he had retreated to the steps of the throne.
He hurriedly regained his balance, glanced at the king secretly, and then felt something was wrong on his forehead. He reached out and touched it, and then spread it out to see that there was sweat all over his hands.
At this time, Mr. De Rossi took half a step back, shrugged coolly, and then smiled and said: "My dear brother, you don't need to be nervous. In fact, I have never seen many of those things..."
Matthias couldn't help but snorted coldly and said: "I've never seen it before, you're so shallow to show off."
The people around him couldn't help but feel contempt in their hearts. Looking at the Crown Prince who was trying to remain calm, they all thought in their hearts: For those magical things, he just hasn't seen them before. Compared to you who have never even heard of them, he is already better.
too much
Mr. De Rossi laughed, and then said extremely generously: "Yes, my dear brother, your accusation is correct.
However, there is one thing I have seen
That is the various new financial instruments that have emerged in Nai'an: stocks, bonds, futures...etc."
He patted the box in front of him proudly and continued: "Don't look at this box of shoes, but even if it is three times bigger and filled with diamonds and jewelry, it is not as valuable as it."
‘It’s three times bigger, and the box full of diamonds is not as valuable as him?’ Everyone present briefly imagined it in their minds, and then let out a low exclamation.
This box cannot contain seven or eight million
At the same time, their curiosity was aroused. Regardless of the strict etiquette in the palace, they curiously looked at the box in front of Mr. De Rossi, secretly guessing what was hidden in it.
Moreover, many beautiful palace maids had the courage to secretly show their eyes to Mr. De Rossi and presented several baskets of autumn spinach.
He is handsome, has a lot of money, and is extremely intelligent. Even Lorraine, the white-haired vixen who has been practicing for thousands of years, was defeated by him.
It's hard to find such a good guy even with a searchlight, so it's easy to encounter him. Naturally, you can't let him go.
At this time, King Inholt also had a smile on his face and said to Mr. De Rossi: "My dear nephew, you have successfully aroused my curiosity. Okay, let's stop playing guessing games as a family."
Open the box and let me see
Uh...how do you say that sentence?
By the way, let me see how powerful decadent capitalism is."
After hearing his wise words, everyone present burst out laughing.
There was a lot of fun in the hall, and there was no trace of the tension a moment ago.
Everyone opened their eyes and looked at Mr. De Rossi. When he opened the box, they didn't seem to see the Crown Prince standing alone and helpless.
However, Mr. De Rossi shook his head and flatly refused: "No, my lord."
The king couldn't help but be stunned and said: "No?"
He thought he heard wrongly, but looking at Mr. De Rossi's expression, the coldness in his eyes reappeared, and he said coldly again: "No?"
De Rossi smiled, bowed, and said: "Your Majesty, please forgive me for asking for such a mysterious feeling.
I want to wait a moment and let the archbishop of our country come with me. Under his witness, I will open the box.
After all, we have too many creditors. It would be very troublesome to explain them one by one.
Your Majesty, although I believe in your justice, the people outside know that you and I are the closest family.
This kind of thing that concerns your loved ones will always be discounted.
And I don’t want your prestige to be damaged in the slightest.”
King Inholt couldn't help but smile: To put it bluntly, Mr. De Rossi was afraid that someone (he glanced at his son) would see the value of the box and snatch it away.
That's why he asked the archbishop of his country to come and testify to prove that he has the ability to repay the loan. The creditors in the province are making a lot of noise outside.
But this boy's words were really nice, which made him very happy.
He thought for a while, this temple is opposite the palace, there is nothing interesting to do, especially if you wait a moment, it would be interesting to cooperate with it.
So, he turned his head and said to the attendant next to him: "Asshole, didn't you hear what my dear nephew said? Hurry up, why don't you go and invite the Archbishop?"
The attendant agreed and hurried out.
Mr. De Rossi looked at the attendant's back and suddenly let out a ferocious laugh deep in his heart: The show is finally about to begin~! (To be continued, you are welcome to cast your monthly recommendation vote,
