"Lord Yue Dan, I just received intelligence that someone has started issuing counterfeit currency in the Royal Capital!" Kada said.
"How did you find out?"
"A shop assistant discovered it by chance!"
Yue Dan took two banknotes in his hand.
"Which one is the fake?"
Hearing this, Kada was also confused; he didn't know which one was fake.
"The one with the rougher workmanship must be the fake!"
"Hmm..."
"How is the Great United Company's business doing now?" Yue Dan asked.
"Uh..."
"Speak!"
"It's always been operating at a loss!"
"Useless! With so much capital and so many people, you still can't compete with Mitsugoshi Company. What good are you?!"
Kada was too scared to speak.
"Issue a large amount of banknotes. At night, have people successfully rob the banks but don't touch the money. Arrange for people to transfer the gold coins out of the banks!"
"Yes, Lord Yue Dan!"
Before nightfall, a vice president of the Great United Company dismissed all the staff and entered the vault himself.
He dug through a pre-prepared tunnel, took a large amount of gold coins, and replaced them with some pre-prepared stones in the vault's bags.
"Great United Company, Kada, you're using us as pawns, so don't blame me!"
At night, when the people sent by Kada came to collect the gold coins, they found that the gold coins in many banks had vanished.
All of this was discovered by Shadow Garden.
The people on the Great United Company side were focused on the movement of counterfeit currency and completely ignored their internal staff.
Those people immediately fled the Royal Capital with the gold coins.
Unfortunately, they were all intercepted and killed by the people sent by Mitsugoshi Company.
When Gamma designed their internal conflict, she had already sent people to watch them.
She didn't expect to gain unexpected wealth.
Those companies betrayed the Great United Company and stole the funds in advance.
The funds stolen by those people totaled 3 billion Zeny.
It was a considerable sum, and all of it went into the hands of Mitsugoshi Company.
Kada dared not tell Yue Dan the truth; if he did, he would surely die.
He immediately sent people to investigate the whereabouts of the money, needing to recover the gold coins before the truth came out.
And he continued to make mistakes, disguising the stones as gold coins, planning to fool others.
The next day, he received news that the people who betrayed the Great United Company were all dead.
But the gold coins had vanished.
This news drove him to despair. Under immense pressure, he thought it over and simply gave up, deciding to abscond with money himself.
He had no choice; the money disappeared right under his nose, and the root cause was his lax supervision.
Given Yue Dan's bloodthirsty nature, he was doomed... John Smith continued to transport counterfeit currency as usual.
But recently, it seemed no one was bothering with counterfeit currency anymore.
The people who opposed him seemed to have all vanished in an instant.
"Young Master John, the situation in the Royal Capital seems a bit off lately. We are issuing counterfeit currency, but the Great United Company is issuing genuine currency, as if they are not afraid of fakes!"
"The situation is not right. I think we should wrap things up!"
"Let's do as you say!"
That day, several banks of the Great United Company were entered by Fox Demon Xue Nv's company.
But whenever they asked to exchange money, the counter staff would make various excuses.
The same happened at other banks of the Great United Company.
They were all making various excuses, as if hiding something.
After a day of delays, they all collectively closed the next day, citing facility malfunctions and inability to operate.
The public became agitated about this, and started banging on the bank doors.
The Great United Company's banks began to be attacked by the public.
Meanwhile, inside Yue Dan's office, Kada was being stepped on by Yue Dan.
"Kada, you dared to betray me!"
Kada did indeed want to run, but how could he outwit The Order?
He had just grabbed the money and tried to flee, but was quickly intercepted by Yue Dan.
"Although I want to kill you, before that, explain where the bank's money went and why there are only 300 million Zeny gold coins left on you!"
To save his life, Kada explained everything in detail.
As soon as he finished explaining, he was immediately killed by Yue Dan.
At this moment, Yue Dan heard the sound of bells and smelled a fox.
"It's her, she's here.
I understand, she made the counterfeit currency!
She did everything.
Xue Nv!!!"
Outside the Royal Capital, Yue Dan led his subordinates, the Four Leaves, to gather a large number of armed personnel.
Yue Dan himself went to find Xue Nv, while the others, carrying 300 million Zeny, drew out the other parties.
Since the other party loved money so much, they would use money to lure them out.
Fox Demon Xue Nv and John Smith also knew about the situation in the Royal Capital and stopped issuing counterfeit currency.
Facing such a provocation from Yue Dan, Xue Nv went to the meeting alone.
"Yue Dan?" Fox Demon Xue Nv said.
"Xue Nv! Is it your turn to take everything from me now?!"
"Yue Dan, this is the retribution you deserve!"
Yue Dan directly attacked Fox Demon Xue Nv, but he was no match for her.
"Golden-furred Nine-tailed Fox! If you had the power, if you had this power back then, how could I have taken everything from you?!"
"Power is not something one is born with! Yue Dan, I still can't bring myself to harm you.
You did save my life when I was a child! You should go!"
Fox Demon Xue Nv spared Yue Dan's life and turned to leave.
But Yue Dan was completely ungrateful.
He took a drug and directly launched a sneak attack on Fox Demon Xue Nv.
Fox Demon Xue Nv was unprepared for the heavily injured Yue Dan, and he inflicted a very deep wound on her back.
"Die!"
Yue Dan shouted, delivering a fatal blow to Fox Demon Xue Nv.
At this moment, Sino appeared and caught the blade with one hand.
With a flick of his hand, Yue Dan's head fell to the ground.
"You are still too merciful!"
Sino reached out and healed Fox Demon Xue Nv's wound.
"You can't make such a basic mistake next time!"
"Thank you, you have saved me once again!" Fox Demon Xue Nv said gratefully.
Sino stroked Fox Demon Xue Nv's fluffy ears.
"Let me stroke your ears, and we'll be even!"
"You are truly joking!"
On the other side, Sid killed all the Four Leaves and took the 300 million Zeny gold coins.
"Good, good, this time I didn't lose everything. These people called Four Leaves are really good people! They were afraid I wouldn't get a single gold coin, so they rushed to deliver them to me!"
Sid finished speaking, picked up the 300 million Zeny, and left.
"It seems I accidentally hurt Alpha this time. She won't blame me, will she? I'll go hide somewhere else for a while! I'll come back when she forgets about this!"
"Alpha, I apologize to you in my heart. Remember to forgive me!"
"Sino, appeasing Alpha is up to you!"
"300 million Zeny should be able to buy a lot of artworks. What should I buy? So many items immediately come to mind!"
Just as Sid was about to leave, he encountered Sino.
Sino and Delta were digging a hole.
"What are you doing?"
"Digging for gold coins!" Sino replied.
Hearing this, Sid's eyes lit up.
He formed a shovel with magic and joined the digging, digging even faster than Sino and Delta.
Delta, unwilling to lose, began to compete with Sid in speed... PS: Honestly, the current average data is quite a bit less than my ideal. I thought many people had watched 'Eminence in Shadow', which is why I wrote this fanfiction.
Now the data feels lukewarm, which really saps my motivation. There are hardly any new readers, it's all old readers.
It feels a bit like a chicken rib, tasteless to eat, but a pity to discard.
Those of you who can give gifts, please give some. Give the author some motivation, even if it's just out of love. Thank you.
