Chapter 148 (2)
"I have already made up my mind, so I hope no more objections are raised."
"Emperor, I still cannot understand the words you have spoken."
The heads of the two families still had a look of disbelief on their faces.Cheêck out latest novels at novelhall.com
No matter how great the influence of the Rothsmedici family was, it was impossible to accept that they would push the situation this far unless they were fools.
So, Tepez's head, Eliezer, even thought this:
'Is it a puppet?'
If the Rothsmedici family completely complemented the 2nd prince, who had insufficient qualifications.
Then, what happened now could be explained.
'No. I have never heard that the 2nd prince is so lacking. Of course, I didn't pay much attention due to Ismail's downfall, but that doesn't mean he would act like such a fool.'
"Please reconsider your thoughts once more. Tepez and I do not want to burden the Empire and His Majesty."
As the head of the Tepez family, who possessed the strongest power in the Empire, he dared to say this.
What he said was no different from saying that he would turn his back on the Empire if he didn't reconsider his thoughts.
Among the restless nobles.
A word that could not be dared came out of Rockefeller.
"No matter how great a Tepez person is, there are things that should and shouldn't be said according to their place. Aren't you being too arrogant?"
"What? Are you calling it arrogant?"
Angry Eliezer tried to show his strength, and the whole venue shook, causing several nearby nobles to faint on the spot.
It would have been a real disaster if he had lost his self-control.
However, Rockefeller, who was protected by a magic shield, had no hesitation because he believed in his wife and his subordinates, who could be called at any time.
"Changing the currency of a country is never easy. It seems that you, Rockefeller... are trying to circulate the Goblin Dollar issued by the Guild in the market and make people use the worthless Goblin Dollar, aren't you?"
Rockefeller gave him a look.
"Worthless? The Goblin Dollar we issued can be exchanged for valuable Dalants at any time, anywhere."
Then, Sinclair's head raised one corner of his mouth as if it were funny.
"Ha ha, you must think I'm a fool. I've heard your story. The Guild issues Goblin Dollars with non-existent gold coins as collateral, right?"
At that, several nobles began to stir greatly.
They didn't know that the bank would print Goblin Dollars with non-existent gold coins as collateral.
And if that was true, the bank was committing a crime that should never be committed.
"That is a clear crime. Do you see everyone as a fool, Rockefeller? Do you think it's okay to deceive them? We will never forget the heinous acts you have committed."
He then appealed to the emperor.
"Did Your Majesty know this fact? That he tried to deceive all of us with a scam. What would people's reactions be if this fact spreads throughout the empire? I hope Your Majesty will deeply consider this matter."
At that, Rockefeller laughed as if it were amusing.
"Did you, such an awakened person, try to forge our Goblin Dollar so cheaply?"
Again, there were nobles stirring.
It was their first time hearing such a story, so they were surprised.
Sinclair's head, with a twisted expression, replied very shamelessly.
"There was no such thing... that happened."
"Perhaps your mouth has gotten the better of you, for you seem to tell lies quite skillfully. It must be because you are such a person that you can lie so well."
