Blackstone Code

Nobles are a very special group, they have certain quirks and values ​​that are incomprehensible.

At some point in the past, ladies often appeared in public events, wearing some bold outfits!

In this monarchy and feudal country, in this world where men dominate everything, it is amazing that something like this can happen.

These noble ladies will become the objects of people's admiration. The purpose of doing this is to let the knights duel for them.

Another thing that sounds unbelievable, but this is exactly what happened in history.

Whether a noble woman is popular or not depends on how many people are willing to die for her!

The imperial capital has the most noble ladies and the most famous ones, so in the entire empire, knights who have a little bit of confidence in themselves and want to be famous will gather in the imperial capital.

For knights, there are many ways to become famous, such as establishing meritorious deeds in wars, but this is difficult to do because there are not always wars.

Another way is to sleep with those noble ladies. Not only can you taste the delicate taste of noble flowers, but you can also become famous.

It's like two groups that are naturally attracted to each other. The knights will choose a suitable noblewoman to launch a fierce pursuit. If there are other knights who are also pursuing this noblewoman, then they will duel for this noblewoman.

Only the winner can become a playmate in the lady's bed, while the loser will lose his life.

This is a very cruel game, but the knights enjoy it endlessly. Every knight who dares to come to the imperial capital to seek fame does not believe that anyone can defeat him.

Ladies also need knights' duels, and they need blood and life to irrigate their fame.

During that period, if there was anyone who did not have knight suitors, let alone duels for her, then she would definitely be ostracized by the mainstream circles.

At that time, the most famous person in the entire Gefra Imperial City was the princess of a certain prince. At least a hundred knights died tragically on the duel field while competing for mating rights.

What's more interesting is that from today's perspective, the nobles at that time did not seem to object to their wives having some direct communication with knights, and some nobles were even proud of it.

In fact, this is just that people now use current thinking to misinterpret people's thinking in the past. In the eyes of the male nobles of that period, except for a few, most nobles did not treat their wives as equals.

In their eyes, the so-called wife is not necessarily the person who will give birth to offspring for them, but is also an ornament and an embellishment.

The louder their reputation, the more respectable they feel to the nobles.

Every era has its absurdities. It is unfair to look at these things from today's perspective.

The little count tried his best to comfort himself, and then threw himself into the salon.

It was already after nine o'clock in the evening when he went back. He was not sure when was the right time to go back, so he stayed as late as possible.

When he returned home, Lynch was gone, and his mother, the former Countess, was watching TV, covering her mouth and laughing from time to time.

The little earl glanced at the TV screen, and heard a slightly strange pronunciation in his ears. There was no doubt that this was a federal TV series.

Since the cultural exchange mission completed their mission and brought back a large number of cultural works, the Gefra people finally recognized the most authentic federal TV dramas and programs.

There is even a local program that teaches everyone how to watch Federation TV series correctly. They also formally placed a sofa in front of the TV, telling everyone that if they want to experience the life of Federation people more deeply, they must lie on the sofa while Eat high-fat and high-sugar food while watching TV.

Otherwise, it is simply impossible to understand the essence of these programs.

Well, this is a kind of ridicule, a kind of irony. Generally speaking, federal programs are still very popular in Gefra.

There is no serious political content, no heavy social phenomena, no manic patriotism, only shitty joy.

There is no need to waste even a single brain cell, just look at the screen and keep giggling. The popularity of federal programs has also made people more curious about the federation.

What kind of society is it that can produce such a mentally retarded TV series?

The little earl's eyes flashed from the TV screen. He walked to the bench and sat down. He picked up a piece of fruit on the table, thought about it and put it back.

"Lynch is gone..." He seemed to be asking a question, but also seemed to be confirming something.

The former countess nodded, "I'll leave after dinner."

The mother and son fell into silence again. Although you know how some things should be, it just doesn't go your way.

The fingers of his hands were intertwined and then separated quickly, "What did he say?"

The former countess withdrew her attention from the TV screen. The way she looked at her son was a little different from the past, full of inexplicable joy and curiosity as if she had discovered something new.

"He said something I hadn't thought of, but I can't tell you now..." When she finished saying this, the little count seemed to want to stand up.

He respects her, but sometimes he asserts his opinions loudly, like any normal kid would.

This time, she did not give the young earl this chance, "This is what Lynch requested. He said that I can't tell you until things develop to that point."

"But don't worry too much, we won't go to the Federation."

The little earl, who was still a little dissatisfied at first, dropped his buttocks after hearing these words, and at the same time exhaled the turbid air in his chest, "It seems that the situation is much better than we imagined?"

The former countess nodded, "You have to maintain your small group regularly. In addition, you have to go to the Privy Council often to communicate with everyone..."

The little earl knew it without any problem. Only Lynch could say this kind of thing.

"Is there anything else?" He looked at his mother, who shook her head, and then he stood up. "I'm a little tired. I'll rest first. You should also rest early."

After watching the young count leave, the former countess' attention seemed to be on the TV series again, but there was no smile in her eyes, only one thought.

Lynch told her some of his ideas and plans in the afternoon. At that time, she was very shocked. At the same time, she also realized that this was an opportunity, a very rare opportunity, an opportunity to enter the core of power.

Sometimes fate is so unlucky that it cruelly takes away her husband when he is in his best years.

But sometimes fate is also very distressing. When she and her children were unable to support themselves, fate knocked her back.

A picture full of bright future is slowly unfolding.

In a blink of an eye, it was already Monday of the second week of November, and the financial aid from the federal government finally arrived. The money came just in time.

Originally, neither His Majesty the Emperor, nor the Prime Minister, nor other ministers thought this would be an easy task.

But after the Chancellor of Finance made a phone call, they actually agreed.

Yes, not a loan, but financial aid, and if they want the money, they have to do it as the federals say, it's aid, not a loan, although both are essentially the same and both require repayment and payments Interest can be said differently.

Different statements will bring about some diplomatic changes. Borrowing money may be a relatively equal relationship, but aiding and being aided are not.

Considering that the country was indeed facing a lot of troubles, the matter was finally settled. Of course, the blame was thrown on the Finance Minister who had stepped down. If anyone in the future thinks that this matter is a loss of power and humiliation to the country, then they can only read it from the history books. Saw the name of a "sinner".

This person is not the Prime Minister, nor will he be the Emperor of the Empire.

After the money arrived, Imperial Bank's confidence came out. As soon as all units went to work on Monday morning, the Prime Minister held a press conference and announced that funds from the national treasury would be used to stabilize the current financial market as soon as possible and quell the run.

At the same time, the people or organizations that played a disgraceful role in this bank run will continue to pursue their relevant legal responsibilities.

The Royal Bank and some banks of the nobility also announced interest rate adjustments. On the basis of the original interest rate, they increased the annual rate by 2.2% in an attempt to impress the people and let them put money into the bank again. .

As soon as various news came out, the biggest change was in the banks. The Royal Bank directly opened all windows to accept withdrawal services.

Sometimes people are just mean. When there were only two windows, people would have to withdraw the little money from their accounts even if they queued for a day.

But when all the counters were opened, people were no longer willing to withdraw money. They also said that they always believed in the empire.

The frenzy of runs began to subside from top to bottom, and changes in financial markets stabilized.

When banks have money, they can lend money to these listed companies. Whether it is to maintain the shareholding ratio or to increase the stock price, they must increase the stock price.

Fortunately, Lynch and the others had also reached the settlement day for their short selling. Although their income was a little less than the previous few days, they still made a lot of money after all.

Some people are crying, others are laughing, and if everyone is losing money, then someone must be getting rich.

Looking at the series of numbers in his bank, Lynch still felt a great sense of satisfaction.

Some people say that changes in numbers are of little significance to the rich. That is because the number of digits changed is too small. If you try changing to a larger number!

In that room again, the little nobles headed by Lynch gathered together again.

They have received this dividend through Lynch, and everyone has achieved the freedom of wealth of the aristocracy. They sincerely thank Lynch for everything he has done, and are willing to continue to support him.

There was a smile on everyone's face. There is nothing more comfortable than making money. Everyone seemed very relaxed, except Lynch who seemed ordinary.

At least not that happy, there was no smile on his face.

The young earl asked curiously, "Mr. Lynch, you don't seem particularly happy?"
