"Hail empress Reili."

"Rise up." she replied to them abruptly. She commanded to them,

"Call ministry of finance right away. I had a words need to be talk to him."

"Roger." Both of the guards were knelt and respected her. Thus they backed off and walked quickly towards the outside... Vanishing as if nothing exists there.

Then, she looked at me and she asked,

"What you could do next?" 

I'm thinking it back.

Apart of currency...

Propaganda? Hmm... 

I don't think that would work since the society had advanced...

Hmm....

"Do you know anything else that could ruin a country in seconds?"

"Sabotage." Kiana replied to me abruptly.

To be honest, Sabotaging is a big no for me. I mean, look.

There are many innocent citizens there.

If the sabotage had gone wrongly. Then what happened to the citizens?

Clearly that they will vanish into nothingness. And then, people will hate us.

I just want them to like us. But in the same time. We can manimpulate them as well as if that we are the kindest. While...

"Wouldn't your idea is a bit kind of evilish?" Kiana looked at me with an unamused look that drawn at her face clearly. As if that she said "FUCK YOU IDIOT" in her forehead that written clearly. But, I know that it wasn't a real deal.

"If sabotaging isn't the plan and propaganda won't work... Hmm..."

"You can start from seizing their natural resources by lending them money." Kiana suggested which led the man who wearing the suit with the dragon humanoid figure who had shown, reacted in an amusement.

"Money Trap Strategy? Prince Ricky had told me before about how powerful that tactic is."

"Can you explain to us for how is it works? This two block-headed asshole couldn't understand it." Kiana replied to that man while pointing to us.

"block-headed asshole? Says someone who begged us for the help." Reili looked at that lady with a smirk. Thus, she replied to her,

"Oh? So... I can't rant? Envy on you if that's the case!" 

Both of them seemingly wanted to fight. Well... Girls fight.

I remember that my dad once told me,

"Girls fighting? As a dudes. We should fuck off from that place before things is getting bad."

As I remembered what my dad told me. I moved back shortly while focusing with the ministry of finance... Moved him back altogether with me as well.

We were head back far to the back... Making sure that nobody disrupts us. 

Thus, we moved fast towards the corner side of the meeting room. Started the discussion.

"How much money you guys can use to fund the other countries?"

"Three quadrillion Cigs."

I remember that I had read the rust book from Kiana. It had said that according to Hartpeler, the ancient god of Technology. One Cigs has one united state dollar worth in my world. In other means...

Three quadrillion USD.

Holyshit!

That's enough to buy the whole country ten times!

Not even the richest country in my world could had that amount of money. This clearly could overthrown Seikara Empire easily.

"What's your plan, Mr. Ministry?" I asked him in a serious tone as I was piqued into the interest to know how strong that is.

Thus, he explained by pulling his scroll up to show it to me.

"This is the list of the construction that we will need to overtake. Take from that first. I had asked the Empire's noblemen that it was all the highest priced resources ever in that empire to be build."

He showed to me the book. Thus, I read it.

Building for seven Pyramids of Richeolots for honor. Three billion Cigs,

Building Sky Bridge in the southern seikara empire, fifteen billion cigs.

It was all the most important document I can read. I can estimate that this confidential information costs ten or twenty trillion of USD.

I mean... Look,

There are three hundred and forty five amounts of assets that be able to being invested. Thus, it was not only that. 

It was a bunch of the information of the resources used as well. In fact... I had an idea...

"How about we are buying that resources. Scalp all of them and then, force the Seikara Empire to give their land one by one slowly to us?" I suggested it to him as I remember that when I played the empire strategy game. It will be the most common strategy to be used for dealing with the stronger empire.

"It's risky. But also doable in the same time. I agree with you, Crown Prince." The Ministry of Finance agreed to me.

"Alright... let's discuss about the possible place we can buy over through the resources."

I observed the list of the construction project that they need to build on. Thus, I had focused over the place that I had thinking of.

"Gold Statue of Lira Richeolot. One Trillion Cigs."

The budget estimation is One Trillion Cigs. If I'm using the old gold calculation that Kiana had mentioned. Then it should be around ten tones of the gold. 

"How much golds we had now?" I asked the ministry in a serious tone. Thus, he replied,

"Three tones of the gold."

Three tones of the gold...

According to the documentation to my system. This world had four billion gold reserves that remains unmined. And most of them were located...

"What enterprise that I can use for bid to them?" I asked him. Thus, he replied to me.

"You can go representing the empire to build the alliance to them."

Perfect! 

It's a lot better for a president to come in the hand than us, the citizens to do it. Thus, I asked him again.

"How much do you need to invest at this construction?"

"Fifteen Billion Cigs!"

"THATS FUCKING ROBBERY IN THE DAY!!" Both Kiana and Reili who had just pinched their own cheek each other, yelled to me in the same time.

"To be honest, Reili. Kiana. You guys are missed one point. I won't do a trade that benefit me less. Definitely not!" 

I told them so.

Yes, just like the god of contracts in that game. I didn't do anything that would not benefit me at all. You know why?

Cause I found out that this building's value will escalate to one quadrillion Cigs. To Seikara Empire, Lira is the hero for them. The hero who defeated Zadkiel in exchange of his own life, I remember that story before. He had lost his life for saving Seikara Empire. 

Even fought against the nine world creatures that was not an easy task at all. 

"Whoa? You know my boi's story?" Kiana asked me abruptly as I rememberred that story. Thus, I replied to her.

"I read a book called Tales of the Dragon Mortal before. It was told everything about this place."

Kiana nodded in an understanding over where I know those. Thus, I continued,

"I plan to invest at this place. So they will mine all of the golds existing in their empire. And reclaim it. Killing two birds in one stone as the citizens gets their hero statue. And I got the gold that I could take it anyway and anytime I want. Thus, I want to make them suffer the losses by lowering their buying capability."

"How?" 

"We will use quarter of the request I proposed to buy the entire lands there. Slowly but sure... In the same time. I will use my system to improve the technology of their agriculture and make it much higher quality yet, better. And raise the price. Pressurizing the other seller that led them to join us. Thus, we can monopolize the resources until the empire is crumble..."

"Resources... Politic... Culture... It is really you... Aaron."
