Your Majesty, the Spectacle Has Missed the Country!

The "Tulip Bubble" that occurred in the early seventeenth century was probably the earliest speculative activity and financial bubble that occurred on earth since recorded history.

Although as early as 1608, a Frenchman exchanged jewelry worth 30,000 francs for a tulip bulb, this was insignificant compared to the huge bubble that tulips generated in the Netherlands.

In 1634, if the initial price of a tulip bulb was one thousand yuan, it would only take one month for its price to reach 20,000 yuan!

And this means that the value of a tulip bulb can even increase by 2,000% in one month! A full twenty times!

In February 1637, a tulip named "Eternal Augustus" was sold for 6,700 guilders, which was enough to buy any mansion on the canal in Amsterdam!

Correspondingly, the average annual income of the Dutch at that time was only 150 guilders.

Such huge profits almost drove everyone crazy, whether they were nobles, citizens, farmers, craftsmen, boatmen, attendants, clerks, even chimney sweeps and old women in second-hand clothes shops, they all joined the tulip show. In the carnival...

And once such a huge bubble bursts, the consequences will be extremely tragic.

A typical speculative boom, this... is Bruno's memory of the tulip bubble in his previous life.

However... is this really the case?

Although the "tulip bubble" has become synonymous with speculative activities in many cases, the above content contains a lot of exaggeration.

However, it is irrefutable that the "Tulip Bubble" that occurred in the 17th century did have a big impact on the market, and it did make some people make a lot of money, while others lost all their money. .

What Bruno has to do now is to bring a tulip feast and carnival to the world!

Moreover, he will do his best to pave the way for his plan early and do everything possible to divert people's attention away from Idar, thereby maximizing the coverage of this tulip feast. Get as much money as possible from Idar!

In the past, even if he knew that such a method could bring huge benefits and wealth to Idar, Bruno would not use it easily.

After all... this move is too insidious and can easily arouse people's hatred. It is completely opposite to the concept of obscene development that Bruno has been implementing in the Idar Territory. It can even be said to be a complete departure.

But...Bruno can't wait any longer!

Because just yesterday, Bruno finally received the battle report from the northern border of the empire!

A group of Odin's Iron Cavalry with a total number of ten thousand people, led by the famous general of the Odin Empire, Portia Mariano, penetrated diagonally from the Forest of Warcraft and penetrated deeply into the empire. Hinterland!

This almost caused the situation in the north of the Norman Empire to collapse instantly, and all the original defense plans came to nothing!

Because, including the Duolin Territory, those nobles whose territories are located near the Forest of Warcraft have long dispatched the private soldiers of the nobles who were originally used to defend their territories to the fortresses in northern Xinjiang.

This directly led to the fact that these noble territories were almost all in an undefended state.

The reason why these nobles dare to send out all the private soldiers in their territories is because of the existence of the Forest of Warcraft!

The Forest of Warcraft, located at the junction of the Norman Empire and the Odin Empire, can almost be called a forbidden land for humans and a kingdom of Warcraft. It is one of the only two places on the entire continent that few humans have set foot on!

It is said that there are monsters in the Forest of Monsters that far exceed the master level and are powerful enough to crush humans.

Although these news were just rumors at the beginning, all humans who enter the Forest of Warcraft never come back!

Even if they are lucky enough to survive, they are either crazy or stupid, which makes people terrified!

Fortunately, those groups of Warcraft entrenched in the Forest of Warcraft seem to have no interest in the human kingdom outside the forest. For hundreds of years, there has never been news of Warcraft attacking humans.

Even the Duolin Territory, the fiefdom of Duke Duolin, is right next to the Forest of Warcraft.

A hundred years ago, the Odin people tried to cross the Forest of Warcraft to launch a direct attack on the Norman Empire. However... the Odin army, with a total number of more than 20,000 people who entered the Forest of Warcraft, actually ended up in the Forest of Warcraft. Missing in the forest.

You can’t see people alive, you can’t see corpses even if you’re dead!

So much so that there was no need to fight a war, and the task of consuming the population and saving food was completed directly...

Therefore, the Norman Empire has almost regarded the Forest of Warcraft as the empire's natural barrier against the Odins.

But this time, the Odin cavalry actually regarded the Forest of Warcraft as nothing and walked through it. This almost made everyone smell a conspiracy that had been brewing for a long time.

Why do Odin's cavalry travel unimpeded in the Forest of Warcraft?

Including Bruno, this is the doubt of almost all noble lords who understand the development of the war in northern Xinjiang!

However, now that the Odin people have smashed the original northern defense line, and it has become an established fact that the Odin people's army passed through the Forest of Warcraft.

So at this moment, it is too late for the Norman Empire to focus on "why". What it should focus on most should be "what to do"!

Because, under the crazy offensive of the Odins, not only large areas of the Norman Empire were occupied by the Odins, but also the aristocracy of the Norman Empire suffered heavy losses.

It's better to say that big nobles like Duke Dorin who "transferred" to St. Lawrence early on, but those nobles such as earls and viscounts who were slower to respond, almost all became the ones the Odin people used to negotiate in the future. captive.

As for those nobles with lower titles, such as barons and knights, one by one, they all became the dead souls under the sword of Odin.

Even the soldiers who surrendered in the northern fortress group were directly killed by the Odins!

After all, the Odin people originally launched the attack because of the population explosion and food shortage. With so many prisoners, even if each of them only had one mouthful of food, over time... it would be a huge consumption!

The supplies that the nobles of the northern Xinjiang sent to the front line before the war were hardly used before they became the possessions of the Odin people, and even the step of searching around was left.

However, UU Reading www. uukanshu.net Even if the war in northern Xinjiang continues to worsen, Idar will never be able to defeat Idar within a year and a half.

After all... the Idar Territory and the nearby eastern region of the empire are also known as wild places!

Who would take the thankless effort of fighting to the east?

Furthermore, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse. Although the Odin people are aggressive at this stage, if they want to compete with the Norman Empire for population and heritage, they may still be far behind.

Therefore, no matter how the situation in the northern border of the empire worsens, it actually has little to do with the Idar Territory.

But... what surprised Bruno the most and gradually became vigilant was the reaction of His Majesty the Emperor of Saint Lawrence!

When the most elite soldiers in the empire were quickly mobilized by Saint Lawrence... they did not immediately rush to the north to help. Instead, they began to gather in the middle of the empire, which seemed to be like sitting on a mountain and watching the fight between tigers.

And this is what alarms Bruno the most!
