The Bank of France, located in the 1st district of Paris, is the central bank of France. It was established on January 18, 1800 by Napoleon Bonaparte, then the first ruling party. In 1848, it monopolized the right to issue currency throughout France.

In the next 30 years, the transition to a modern central bank was completed.

It is no exaggeration to say that whoever controls the Bank of France controls the economic lifeline of France.

Not long after the bank opened today, dozens of military trucks parked in front of the bank's main entrance. A tall, handsome British major jumped out of the first truck and strode toward the bank alone.

Walk inside.

Needless to say, this guy is Huang Shaohong. From the moment he decided to take all the Chinese workers with him, he had already planned to attack the Bank of France.

With enough money, he can place these Chinese workers, and he can lay his own foundation in this world in advance.

According to the information recorded by Huang Shaohong before entering the mission world, at the end of 1913, the five countries of Britain, France, the United States, Germany, and Russia accounted for two-thirds of the world's gold stock.

It can be imagined how rich France's gold reserves are, and the Bank of France is where France uses to reserve gold and foreign exchange.

As soon as Huang Shaohong entered the main entrance of the Bank of France, he was attracted by the luxurious, majestic and rococo art style decoration in the hall.

Looking up, the walls of the rectangular hall are covered with gold ornaments, separated by continuous arched windows, surrounded by gentle curved surfaces at the four corners, and the ceiling is also made of curved surfaces. The exquisite carvings conceal the weight and strength of the pillars.

When people are in the hall, they can not only experience the solemnity and majesty, but also give people an interesting artistic feeling.

Dozens of military trucks were parked in front of the bank. It was impossible not to attract the attention of bank staff. So Huang Shaohong raised his head and took a few glances when there was a staff member wearing a dark suit with a warm smile on his face.

Welcomed him.

"Sir, I am Emile, the lobby manager of the Bank of France. Is there anything I can do to help you?"

This is because the hall manager saw Huang Shaohong wearing a British military uniform and spoke with an authentic London accent.

Huang Shaohong also introduced himself: "I am Major Tom Cruise of the Second Infantry Division of the British Expeditionary Force. I have something very important to meet with the person in charge of your bank. Please introduce me to him!"

Emil paused for a moment, then smiled again and said, "Can I ask what you are looking for with our manager?"

Huang Shaohong suddenly darkened his face: "Military secrets, no comment!"

He is the emperor of several worlds. If he becomes serious, he will exude a supreme majesty. When he becomes serious, Emil suddenly feels like he can't breathe smoothly.

As the hall manager of the Bank of France, Emile has received countless royal families and dignitaries from various countries over the past ten years. He felt that even King Edward VII of the United Kingdom did not have the majesty of the man in front of him.

To be similar, only about eleven years ago, the great man from the far East, named Li Zhongtang, had such a majestic bearing, but it was still much worse than this British major.

Emil was thinking in his mind when he suddenly realized that the person in front of him had a pair of black pupils. Those pupils were as charming as black gems and as deep as an abyss, making him unconsciously cast his gaze into them.

Huang Shaohong and Emil looked at each other for a long time, then suddenly took a step forward and whispered: "Take me to see your president immediately!"

Emil bowed slightly and responded in a humble tone: "Obey my master!"

Following the emir, Huang Shaohong met the current President Moreau of the Bank of France in the famous "private conference room" of the Bank of France.

Huang Shaohong got straight to the point and said the words he had thought of directly to the president in front of him:

"President Moreau, the German army has once again launched an attack on the Marne River defense line. The war situation is now tense. The Germans may break through the defense line and invade Paris at any time. I have been ordered to immediately transfer the gold reserves of your bank to London. Please open the vault immediately!"

"What?"

President Moro was startled, and then immediately said seriously: "I need to confirm with the board of directors, otherwise I will not let any gold brick leave the bank!"

Huang Shaohong rolled his eyelids. It seemed that his words were in vain and he had to rely on hypnosis!

Immediately used the ‘Soul Transfer Technique 20.’ again to turn Mr. Moreau into his loyal slave!

A minute later, Huang Shaohong took a cigar from Moreau, lit it, took a puff, and then said: "It's time to open the bank vault!"

Morrow explained: "The gold reserves are in the vault eight floors underground. To open the vault, you need two keys. I have one of them, and the other one is in the hands of Mr. Cruder, the chairman!"

Regarding Moreau's statement, Huang Shaohong was not surprised at all. Although it was 1917, it was the Bank of France after all, and it was definitely impossible without some defense measures in the vault.

He said directly: "Then call your chairman, I will tell him the story!"

Moro hurriedly said: "The chairman is usually not in the bank, I will call him now to trick him into coming here!"

Huang Shaohong looked at the clock on the wall: "Is it possible to blow up the wall?"

"..."

Huang Shaohong's suggestion was still not implemented because the vault of the Bank of France was to be blown up, which would probably alarm the whole of Paris.

Half an hour later, 'Crud', the current chairman of the Bank of France, who received a call from Moreau, hurried over.

At this time, dozens of military trucks had already driven to the back door of the bank under the guidance of the lobby manager Emil, so the chairman did not notice anything unusual.

However, Crud was stunned as soon as he entered the bank lobby. He saw no less than two hundred heavily armed soldiers in British military uniforms standing in the lobby.

But the strange thing is that these soldiers are not white blond and blue-eyed, but all tall and muscular orientals.

Moreau accompanied a major officer of the British army and walked towards him. Cruder quickly stepped forward and asked:

"Morrow, what's going on?"

Moreau made a gesture of invitation: "Let this Major Tom Cruise explain it to you!"

Huang Shaohong stretched out his hand and shook Kruder's hand, and then he was about to say what he said, but when he said it, he thought about it and realized that this guy must not believe it either, so he would have to rely on hypnosis in the end.

Immediately he curled up his lips and said in English:

"It's like this. 'Jack' ate 'Tom' and killed 'Popeye'. 'Conan' who went to solve the case also died in his hands. After that, this guy even made a crazy fei gift.' Doraemon

', insulted 'Optimus Prime'!"

"In the end, this 'Jack' actually colluded with the 'Namekians' and joined forces with 'Thanos', planning to invade the earth to find the 'Seven Dragon Balls', and then summon the 'Shenron' to cure onychomycosis. We must not infect the greatness of both of them.

desire!"

Huang Shaohong squeezed Kruder's hand with a serious look on his face: "Mr. Chairman, I have been ordered to immediately transfer the gold reserves of your bank. Please open the vault immediately and let us in to rob... No, it is to transfer the reserves.

gold!"

At this time, Kruder felt that his English skills were very poor. He didn't understand any of the names the other party said. He was slightly surprised and asked: "Who is Jack...?"

"A rat!"

Huang Shaohong didn't need to say anything more. His star-like eyes made Kruder confused. A minute later, another person was added to his list of slaves.

Fifteen minutes later, the vault on the eighth floor underground was opened, and rows of neatly stacked gold bricks appeared in front of everyone. The moment the lights in the vault were turned on, the entire vault shone with golden light.

Kruder introduced: "Master, the gold bricks stored here weigh about 12 kilograms each, and the purity is above 99.9%!"

Huang Shaohong looked back at his subordinates who had never seen the world before, laughed, and waved his hand:

"Don't be so worthless, please, move it for me as soon as possible!"

Two hundred strong Chinese men with good height and strength rushed in after hearing this. Under the command of President Morrow, they neatly stacked the gold bricks on the metal inside the bank that was specially used to transport gold bricks.

On the cart.

Then go up to the first floor of the bank through a special elevator, push it out through the back door, and start loading the car.

Huang Shaohong didn't plan to get out much. Gold was too heavy. According to the calculation that he had more than 9,000 Chinese workers, each carrying 50 kilograms of gold, he could barely get away with 250 tons of gold this time.

Who said France had so many gold reserves during World War I? Huang Shaohong can tell you responsibly:

"I leave it to you to answer this question, Kruder..."

Chairman Cruder introduced to Huang Shaohong on the sidelines that most of the wealth accumulated by France over the past hundreds of years is here, and the total number of gold exceeds 2,000 tons!

Huang Shaohong asked more than two hundred Chinese workers to carry it first. The 250 tons of gold could not be moved for a while. He asked Cruder and Moreau to open the vault for foreign exchange reserves, pick out the old pound notes of the largest denomination and fill them with ten

The big cowhide box was taken away.

During the First World War, the pound was still a "white pound" with a seated statue of the goddess Britannia on it, as well as denomination and description text. The maximum denomination was one thousand pounds.

Huang Shaohong's ten large cowhide boxes contained banknotes in denominations of one thousand pounds. The total value of the ten boxes was no less than one hundred million pounds.

The value of the pound during this period was extremely high. Huang Shaohong has read the data. According to the British Consumer Price Index (CPI), one pound in 1917 was equivalent to 50.78 pounds in 2015.

This means that the value of Huang Shaohong's ten suitcases in pounds is equivalent to five billion pounds in later generations.

However, the First World War is not over yet. Countries have frozen the circulation of gold, causing the gold standard to collapse and the value of the pound to fall.

But as long as Huang Shaohong waits until the war is over and then releases these old pound notes, he will immediately become one of the richest people of this generation.

Of course, he didn't pay attention to the money. He took these ten suitcases of pounds just because he didn't have to go to the trouble of exchanging gold when using the money. It was just for convenience.

After the Chinese workers saw the gold, their enthusiasm and potential were unimaginable. About 250 tons of gold were loaded into the truck in less than an hour under the sweaty work of two hundred Chinese workers.

The bottoms of dozens of military trucks were paved with two layers of gold bricks, which could not be seen from the outside. Huang Shaohong had people carry ten large cowhide boxes and waved to the Chinese workers:

"Get in the car and let's go!"

Two hundred Chinese workers were ordered to stop and climbed onto the truck bed one after another. Ten suitcases filled with pound banknotes were also loaded into the truck. After Huang Shaohong boarded the truck and got into the passenger seat, he greeted Crud, Moreau, and Emil who were seeing him off.

The three bank executives waved their hands and then directly asked someone to drive!

In this operation, Huang Shaohong used the 'Soul Transferring Technique 2.0' to hypnotize the entire bank staff. Under his inner suggestion, the hypnotic effect would be automatically lifted after three days.

And these people will forget everything about Major Tom Cruise and the two hundred Chinese soldiers.

In this era without surveillance, Huang Shaohong used such methods, which is destined to make this Bank of France robbery the biggest mystery about bank robberies in history!

The convoy drove from the 1st arrondissement of Paris to the 12th arrondissement in the southeast direction. Huang Shaohong looked at his watch. The train to Marseille would leave in an hour, and they had to rush back immediately to load the gold.

Otherwise, although he hypnotized the stationmaster and several important people of Lyon Station in Paris, the number of trains and passenger flow at Lyon Station is also very large. If the departure is delayed, it will easily cause trouble.
