Chapter 124. Multi-line Operation
Copying sixteen copies of the loan permit wasn't the most challenging part of this operation. On the contrary, it was the easiest. As long as they could get the prince's blood and an inscription master to work for them, they could make copies.
The real challenge was how to implement the loan at the same time.
The liquid funds in every bank's vault were limited. Generally speaking, such a large sum of money would be taken away in the form of a check and withdrawn when needed.
But this time, Char wanted to take them all out in one go.
This involved a verification process - the bank's headquarters was located in the holy city of the United Holy Kingdom, Mephisto. Every loan had to be reported to the headquarters, and the information exchange was covered by magic messages.
In this era, there was no such thing as a "real-time display of account balance," so it was to prevent people from madly swiping their cards.
The reason was simple. There was a limit to the total amount of money in an account. As long as there was more than a second difference between the two, the matter would be exposed. It was the same for loans. At that time, not only would Felix be arrested and put on trial, but the Morgenlight Chamber of Commerce would also suffer, even if it had a Governor.
To achieve this, they could only operate at the same time.
It was difficult because there was no instant communication with zero delays in this world.
However, there was a relationship between the players.
Moreover, only players could wave their sleeves and carry ninety million gold coins, which was nearly 2,000 tons, with them. It was something that no one else could do.
Therefore...
As long as he could find sixteen players to withdraw money simultaneously, the matter would be easily resolved.
What was the personality of the manager at each branch? Were they impatient or patient? How did they do when collecting the money? Fast or slow? How fast were their steps and speaking when they headed to the communication room to submit their orders?
All of these would affect the time when the cash withdrawal message was sent to the headquarters, causing a time difference.
It was the real challenge.
It could be said that the difficulty of this matter would increase exponentially with the addition of each branch. It was already difficult to withdraw money from two banks simultaneously, and three was almost the limit. Four banks were simply impossible!
As for Char, he had to take loans from seventeen banks in one go.
Only someone like Felix would believe he could do it and was dead set on him.
At the end of the day, this person did not believe in Char or the abyss. He only believed in money.
Char had provided him with a path- a possible path that would allow him to take a large amount of money from the pockets of the organization that controlled the most money in the world.
He enjoyed the process of stealing the gold coins of this world.
Felix knew very well that gold had no value if it wasn't a "currency." What he was obsessed with was not gold, but gold coins- The main point was 'coins.'
That was enough.
It was something that even Zin'rokh couldn't provide, which was why he hadn't been corrupted by Zin'rokh.
...
Early in the morning, sixteen players from the [Rich Flame Knot] and [Ghost Hunter] gathered in Pelican Town.
There were people among them that Char knew and also some that he had just met. In any case, they were chosen by Nino Saburo and Huangfu Shou, so he was confident in their work.
When the members of the two guilds met, they greeted each other. After that, Char added them as friends and took a contract for them to sign. The general idea was that as soon as they withdrew money from the bank, they had to use a return scroll located in Pelican Town and transfer the money to Char.
Just the sixteen return scrolls alone cost almost 2,000 gold. Without Felix's help, it might not even be possible.
Then, with the fat merchant's permission, they all joined the Morgenlight Chamber of Commerce and had the right to withdraw money.
After giving them simple instructions, Char asked them to take the documents they needed for the loan and ride the dragon hawks provided by the Morgenlight Chamber of Commerce to different towns. He then took Felix to the bank in Pelican Town.
When he arrived at the door, he didn't rush in but waited.
About an hour and ten minutes later, Alstein arrived at Teswood, the closest town to pelican.
Another half an hour later, Nelwin arrived at the Town of Krim.
Fourteen minutes later, Nino Saburo arrived at Black Swan Town.
...
After four hours and seven minutes, they all arrived at their respective destinations. They were already standing in front of the bank.
Char took a deep breath and suppressed his excitement, his brain working quickly.
He gave Felix a look, and the fat merchant also took a deep breath and strode into the bank of Pelican Town.
At the same time, Char opened sixteen chat windows in a row.
He didn't say a word.
He was waiting.
...
When the Pelican Town cashier saw it was Felix, he didn't dare to neglect him and hurriedly got his supervisor to deal with this VIP customer. The two entered the living room and were delayed for five minutes and fourteen seconds.
The second Felix stepped into the living room-
Ding!
Char's timer rang, and he sent a "start" to Nelwin.
Nelwin stepped into the bank.
The NPC who received her was a female elf of unknown age. After checking the loan certificate, she pushed the chair away and said, "Wait," before limping to the communication room.
From the moment she received her to when she stood up and left, she was expressionless and did not say a single word.
Once she left the chair, Char imagined the scene even though no one had informed him.
Then, the timer beeped.
Char then ordered the four of them.
Teswood, Black Swan Town, Sweet Water Bay, and Forest's Heart began to apply for loans at the same time. As the players in these four places were all humans and not elves, the efficiency of the cashier was 20% slower than usual. Although the action was slow, it was still much faster than the limping cashier from Krim.
Twenty-four seconds after he gave the order to the four, Char gave another order to seven of the remaining eleven.
The cashiers in these seven places were half-elves, so there was no discrimination, and the efficiency was normal.
Thirty seconds later, Char gave the last four orders.
Ferlin Town, Gourom, the Court of Oak, and Iswood were located at the four corners of the border of Greenland and had become the most heavily infiltrated territories by foreign races. Naturally, the bank cashiers were occupied by the Mushmen, who claimed they could survive by smelling the fragrance of gold coins and listening to the clattering.
And so, after the four loans were handed out at the same time, the four Mushmen receptionists jumped out of their chairs, cursing, "Damn wealthy people, why don't you go out and get killed by a car?" Then, they ran to the communication room.
Ding-
Char's timer rang again.
The corners of his mouth curled slightly, revealing a confident smile as he quietly waited for the result.
It was a magical second, and time seemed to have stopped. All the way north from Pelican Town, the banks in Teswood, Krim, Black Swan Town, and Iswood, as well as seventeen other territories, had each sent a "large gold transaction application" to their headquarters in Mephisto.
Mephisto. The magic messages from seventeen windows converged. Because the time of arrival and the content was the same, they automatically fused when they converged and became a line sent to the Lightshadow Puppet to process data.
Five seconds later, the "agree to withdraw money" command was issued from the puppet. He made sixteen copies and sent them out.
The message returned, and gold coins began to flow.
