Extraordinary pedigree

Poseidon Palace Hotel in Tórshavn.

Noon: 3:25.

[Financial card blessing completed——]

[The temporary seal is completed! 】

[Your current [basic assets] are: 4 million US dollars]

[Because you have not carried out real-name authentication in the Financial Street, your [Economic Magic] behavior in a different space will be subject to quota limits! 】

[Finally, to every holder of a financial card, we sincerely offer this passage - the inquiry about the natural course of wealth, and also about the natural course of economic processes within human society or a country, should be considered It is the research in which people are most hopeful of gaining insights. 】

[Appendix to Financial Street Developer: Wealth is originally a tool of life. Unfortunately, in today’s world, wealth has taken over the place of the way of life and the content of life. As a result, wealth has become the content of life (if [Financial Street] cannot bring help to mankind, then I will be a sinner). 】

Xia Xiu turned the card with a [Beast] printed on it with great interest. This kind of anonymous [Financial Card] costs about 5 cryptocurrency coins (approximately 132,493.50 US dollars) on the dark web.

"Mr. Abraham, the equity transaction has been completed, so I won't belaboring here." Ben Geer put away the equity transfer contract he had just signed, and then bowed respectfully to the blond young man who was turning the card in front of him.

"Thank you for the association's help." Xia Xiu replied to Ben Geer with a smile.

An awkward smile appeared on Ben Geer's face, and then he quickly left the luxurious room arranged by himself as if running away.

Looking at the running away association executive, Tours stopped rubbing the head of Jiam's dog. Jiam had not been let out for a walk by Xia Xiu for a while, so he didn't need to be too nervous about his actions this time. There was no need to make any big moves, so Jiamu was released by Xia Xiu.

During this time, Tours has been helping him walk the dog.

"These guys are so scared by you," Tours said to Xia Xiu.

"Don't slander me. I didn't do anything or threaten them. How could I threaten them?" Xia Xiu blinked his eyes innocently.

This guy is really thick-skinned. Turs muttered secretly in his heart.

"So what are we going to do next, can we find John Giovanni with this card?" Sitting on the sofa in the living room, Zhi Zhou broke the card in his hand to test the hardness and asked his own question at the same time.

"Of course, Giovanni, the black-hearted ghost, is currently staying in the alien space projection of [Financial Street]. In fact, it is much easier to defeat him in [Financial Street] than outside. Our next plan is also very simple: clear it out Giovanni’s [extraordinary assets] in [Financial Street], let him [bankrupt], ​​then materialize these [extraordinary assets] and smash it to death.”

The blond young man smiled and clapped his hands at everyone.

"Is not it simple."

Broly, who had been a blank slate for a week and had been a homebody for many years, nodded along with Xia Xiu's words. It was indeed very simple. Turs, who knew the many twists and turns inside [Financial Street], looked at The two 'innocent' teammates couldn't help but put their hands on their foreheads, looking speechless.

[Trading Challenge], this is one of the unshakable iron orders within [Financial Street]: In [Financial Street], thaumaturgic entrepreneurs who hold [extraordinary assets] will never be allowed to hoard assets - assets must remain in circulation, Assets must be traded.

Thaumatologists who possess a large amount of [extraordinary assets] must keep resources flowing, so when [Financial Street] was developed, one of the underlying rules was: asset holders must complete a small transaction once a week (the small amount Divided according to the corresponding [extraordinary assets] of the holders, and there are no restrictions on transaction methods).

Transaction is the gain or loss of assets.

The so-called transaction is either the continuous accumulation of assets or the continuous reduction of assets.

Continuous upward flow will inevitably lead to monopoly and asset oligopolization, while upward flow may also lead to the formation of investment preferences and asset bubbles. And these huge thaumaturgy asset owners tend to invest their capital in high-yield areas and assets, which in turn leads to excessively high asset prices in these areas and the formation of asset bubbles, while other areas face a lack of investment and resource shortages. The problem.

"It's not easy to make Giovanni [bankrupt]. I checked his extraordinary asset distribution in [Financial Street]. It's very stable. He has basically never been trapped. But if you launch a [hostile takeover] against him. It's also unlikely. You have to know that our share is limited, and it is impossible to launch a [hostile takeover]." Tours shook his fox tail and began to think about countermeasures in his mind.

[Hostile acquisition], one of the internal trading methods of [Financial Street], refers to an organization or thaumaturgy acquiring a target by directly purchasing shares from the target's shareholders or other means without the consent of the target personnel or target management. control of power.

[Extraordinary securities] are personal items, and the holder is not its owner. Hostile acquirers can make high-price acquisitions from their owners (this kind of transaction competition is only allowed to occur among thaumaturges who publicly list their assets. At the same time, it must be in [Financial Street] Only internal competition can be launched).

For example, a thaumaturge transformed his concept of using fire magic and EVE particles into ten shares of [Extraordinary Securities] through [Financial Street]. These ten shares were acquired and released by a [Financial Card] holder. Enter [position].

And when the holder of the [Financial Card] is in the [Financial Street] different space (this kind of operation is only allowed in the [Financial Street] different space), a target person is interested in the ten shares in the holder's hand. assets, he can launch a [hostile acquisition] and seize these ten assets through malicious competition.

[Extraordinary assets] are divided into good and bad. Good assets cast magic spells that are stronger and more stable, while bad assets sometimes behave like evil gods when released, hurting others and themselves.

"Giovanni is on the rich list of [Island Française·Financial Street], with [extraordinary assets] of 2.24 billion US dollars.

This is the realm of [France Island]. Even if you are rich in this world, if you are not spiritually bound to [Financial Street] and have not become a true member of the financial genealogy, you will not be able to replace too many [extraordinary assets], and Our current cards are not temporary and have extremely high limits. Tours said with a headache as he held up the card in his hand.

"So the specific operations here can only be carried out in the different space of [Financial Street]. Moreover, the essence of the transaction is not that the one with the highest price wins, but: increase what they want and give them what they need." Xia Xiu said. Turs showed a familiar smile, which was full of playfulness and interest.

Turs originally wanted to say something, but looking at the smile on the blond young man's face and what he had done in recent days, he chose to keep his mouth shut.

"Then, let's go directly to [France Island Financial Street] to see the magnificent miracle created by the Edici Federation."

Xia Xiu stood up, took out his [financial card], then he drew a swipe into the void, and then whispered to himself:

"Consumption·Financial Phase Gate."

【-666 CAD】

Poof——

A black portal emerged from the void. There was a [Beast] on this door. In the doomsday light carved inside the door, a new [Beast] rose from the ground. Its shape was blurry at first, but as it As it gradually emerges, it can be seen that it has two horns. The two horns are slender and soft, like those of a newly born lamb, and they look harmless and innocent. The lamb's horns were as white as fresh snow, flawless, as if to prove its innocence.

However, everything changes when the beast starts talking. Its voice is deep and shocking, like the roar of an ancient dragon, full of terror and authority. This makes people wonder, how could the seemingly docile and innocent creature with the horns of a lamb make such a terrifying sound?

[Certification completed! 】

Xia Xiu squinted his eyes slightly and stared at the [Beast] on the door: He rose from the ground, had two horns like a sheep, and spoke like a dragon.

"Go through the same door as me, so that you won't be scattered when teleporting. Of course, the fee will still be charged. There is also a fee for bringing a dog in." Xia Xiu turned to the three people and one dog behind him and said.

After saying that, Xia Xiu stepped into the door.

After Xia Xiu entered, the others also picked up the temporary [financial cards] in their hands and whispered to themselves to make purchases, while Turs, who was riding on Jiamu, made two purchases in a row.

"Tsk, even the consumption of dogs is 666. It seems that [Financial Street] likes this number that is one digit less than the representative number of the Kingdom of Heaven." Turs muttered to himself after finishing the consumption. .

**********

Hub, Français Island·Financial Street.

When Xia Xiu opened his eyes again, he already appeared in a strange and bizarre world.

Towering buildings are interspersed on the skyline, and the iron-cast structures are intertwined with curves and patterns, showing a unique retro beauty. Huge steam exhaust pipes are embedded in the building, emitting a strange white steam that fills the air like a mysterious mist.

The exterior walls of the building are decorated with copper sculptures and iron decorations, which reflect the rays of the sun and sparkle with the luster of metal. The huge clock tower stands in the center of the city, its hands pointing in the direction of the future, indicating the passage of time. The top of the building is decorated with a complex airship docking platform, where airships of various shapes and sizes rise and fall, adding a romantic and fantasy atmosphere.

Steam-driven vehicles drive on the streets, from classical horse-drawn carriages to fashionable steam cars, and all kinds of vehicles shuttle through the spacious and busy streets. The streets are lined with colorful neon signs, flashing in various bright colors, reflecting people's smiling faces and longing eyes.

People wear fashionable steam windbreakers and carry steam-driven equipment, freely shuttle around every corner of the building, and feel the integration of technology and art.

And there is a big slogan in the distance.

[Let thaumaturgy and technology empower life together! 】

"It's really Edici's template for building a dream city." Xia Xiu reached out and pressed the top hat on his head to cover his eyes, and then said softly.

Many innovative research companies within the Edici Federation like this magnificent and dreamy architectural style. However, one thing that has always been criticized about this dreamy architectural style is the huge light pollution. The colorful light makes the city covered in Put on a dazzling coat.

"This is just another hub area...it's completely different from [Smoke-free City]."

Broly's sighing voice came from behind, followed closely by Zhou, and the last person who appeared was naturally Turs riding a dog.

"[France Island] relies on the different space of [Financial Street], and its development is of course different." Tours said, and then he raised his head and looked around.

I don’t know if it’s because he is too sensitive, but he found that the density of foreign races in [Farland Island] is actually comparable to that in [Smoke-free City]. You must know that [Smoke-free City] itself is a gathering place for foreign races, and [French Island] is a gathering place for foreign races. Orchid Island], a [hub] that is an important port for foreign trade of various countries and also has a different space projection of [Financial Street], can actually gather so many foreign races.

"Gentlemen, do you want to take a ride?"

A cheerful voice came into the ears of the four people from the side. A young man with freckles on his face and pointed ears slowly drove a classic carriage and stopped in front of the four people and one dog.

It is worth noting that the young man with pointed ears is a bit short in stature, and the white horses on both sides he drives have a pair of small wings behind him.

"Gentlemen, the flight speed of my two Pegasus is very stable. I have a [flight pass], and my carriage has expansion magic and stabilization magic, which ensures that there will be no bumps at all when riding." Reed Rory He introduced himself enthusiastically to these four guests with unusual temperaments.

"You are from Harry, right?" Xia Xiu looked at Luo Li and then said in a positive tone.

"Oh, sir, you are really well-informed. Many people think of me as a dwarf. I have told them that I am a Harry, not a dwarf!" Rory said with a smile on his face when he saw someone who could recognize his own race. His smile suddenly became more genuine.

The Haris are not dwarfs. Although they are all the same short stature, the Haris have pointed ears and their looks are basically at the passing level.

"Is the city toll fee on [Flan Island] still 66 dollars?" Xia Xiu asked the Harry in front of him.

"Yes, it's still 66 US dollars." Rory nodded and replied honestly.

Although he also wanted to make a deceptive meter like those black-hearted counting drivers to deceive the outsiders, but when he thought of the consequences of being reported, he gave up the idea. After all, he had a father who was in the last century. I bought this carriage frugally to rely on, so there was really no need to take such big risks to do those shady businesses.

"Are there Financial Times and Metropolis Newspapers in the car?" The blond young man asked another question.

When Rory heard this, he knew that the deal was stable, and he immediately nodded quickly and replied:

"Yes, yes, they are all the latest issues. Are you a [trader], sir?"

"No, we are just tourists passing through [Farland Island]."

The blond young man shook his head and smiled, and then he motioned to Rory to open the car.

Luo Li quickly opened the car, Xia Xiu held the armrest and walked into the car, while the others followed closely behind. After entering, they confirmed that Reed Rory was not lying. It was indeed quite spacious inside.

"Sir, where do you want to go?" Luo Li asked Xia Xiu in the carriage.

Xia Xiu didn't reply immediately. He pulled out a copy of the "Financial Capital Times" from the shelf in the carriage. The title screen on it was clearly [France Island]. He looked at the headline.

"Hostile Takeover!" 》

[1690.6.15. Giovanni Energy Company launched a [hostile takeover] of Valais Thermoelectricity: The new big trader John Giovanni made a [hostile takeover offer] for Valais Thermoelectricity. The takeover attempt triggered resistance from Valais Thermo's management and shareholders, who believed that Giovanni Energia's offer undervalued Valais Thermo and that there were strategic and regulatory obstacles.

The next day, John Giovanni launched a personal [hostile takeover] on the street to rob a major shareholder of Valais Thermoelectricity [extraordinary assets]. This move can be understood as Giovanni's ultimatum to Valais Thermoelectricity. In response to Giovanni's [hostile takeover], Valais Thermoelectric launched [poison pill measures] to restrict the actions of hostile acquirers by amending the transaction articles or agreements. 】

"Valais Thermoelectric Office Building."

After reading the contents of the newspaper, the blond young man raised his head and said something to Rory.

"Okay, sir."
