Cardia has branches in the UK, with stores covering bustling commercial streets in more than 20 major cities in the UK. After the Tang Dynasty Royal Jewelry Company annexed Cardia, it took over all its branches in the UK.

When the Tang Empire was allowed to borrow 1 billion pounds from the Bank of England, the British restricted the purchase of goods from the British domestically in order to prevent Zhang Meng from taking this huge pound to do other things that were not conducive to the development of the British economy.

This additional clause seems to limit Zhang Meng to a close limit, but in fact, Zhang Meng was prepared for it. When the Tang Dynasty Royal Jewelry Company annexed Cardia, it has now become the best cover for Zhang Meng to cash out gold from the UK.

The jewelry produced by the Royal Jewelry Company of Datang is deeply loved by the British powerful and rich people. On the one hand, this has opened up a high-end and huge profit-making market for the jewelry sales of Datang Jewelry Company, and on the other hand, it has also attracted the franchise of downline suppliers from all over the UK.

The chain operation method of Datang Royal Jewelry Company is being implemented worldwide, especially in the gold-rich UK and France chain stores.

In order to bring the Bank of England's billion pound loan funds out of the UK, Zhang Meng ordered Datang Royal Jewelry to collectively purchase 7,400 tons of gold from its twenty-five British gold suppliers. London is the world's second largest gold exchange after New York, and the suppliers quickly raised this huge amount of gold through their respective channels.

The Datang Royal Jewelry Company issued a payment certificate to them, and the major suppliers then settled directly with the Bank of England with these payment purchase certificates.

The 1 billion pound loan lent to Zhang Meng was directly paid to 25 Huang family suppliers in the UK. The purchasing power of 1 billion pounds is equal to ton of gold, and the other 67.2 tons of gold is settled by Datang Jewelry Company.

In this way, although the British restricted Zhang Meng on loan issues, Zhang Meng eventually exchanged the billion pounds of cash into tons of gold and transported it back to the Tang Empire.

When this batch of gold was safely transported into the Central Bank of the Tang Empire, that is, the vault of the Datang Bank, the total gold reserves had reached an astonishing 16,000 tons.

Standing in the huge underground vault, in front of you, the mountains of gold made of gold bars shine in golden light.

Sniffing the smell of money emitted by the gold bars, Zhang Meng couldn't help but be intoxicated.

"This vault is probably the largest vault in the world. At that time, Your Highness insisted on building this huge vault. Now it seems that Your Highness's original judgment was correct, and this 16,000 tons of gold is just enough to accommodate."

As the vault security captain of Datang Bank, Li Chengyi, who was formerly a core member of the Blue Fox Special Service Team, was transferred here to serve as the security captain. It originated from Zhang Meng's emphasis on the vault security system of Datang Bank and his trust in the monkey.

"I had to build this super vault for twenty years before I could fill it with gold, but I never thought it would be almost full now. I would have known that the original design would be bigger."

The monkey smiled and said, "Have you forgotten that half of the gold in it is owed to the British, and I will have to pay it back to others in the future."

Zhang Meng smiled slightly and replied confidently: "That's right. It's still British for the time being. But they will soon belong to us."

If it were the case before, the monkey might not believe Zhang Meng bragging, but since he robbed nearly a thousand tons of gold from Siling Bank and made thousands of tons of gold on Wall Street, the monkey was completely impressed by Zhang Meng. He was full of confidence in his old captain from the bottom of his heart. Now no matter what Zhang Meng said, he would believe it, even if he didn't understand.

More and more people like Monkey are full of fanatical admiration for Zhang Meng.

If there are gods in this world, then they will undoubtedly regard Zhang Meng as a god.

"Your Highness, everyone else is doing things outside. But you transferred me here to see the vault. This vault is built like a brick wall, and I don't even need to watch me. Do you think you are changing someone?"

The monkey was bored to guard the vault every day. He missed his teammates and his trained subordinates very much.

Zhang Meng knew the monkey’s idea, but for the sake of the security of the vault, he had to feel wronged that the monkey was watching here.

"Which bank we robbed before was not a wall of iron? We finally cracked it? This vault is the life of our Tang Empire. If the entire Tang Empire is a skyscraper, then this vault is the foundation of this building. If something happens here, the entire building will collapse in an instant. As long as it is a vault designed by humans, there will always be loopholes. I let you stare at it, which comes from my absolute trust in you."

Being able to gain Zhang Meng's trust and hand over such an important task to himself, the monkey immediately understood his responsibilities.

"Thank you for your trust. I will never let you down your expectations for me. I will definitely guard this place."

Zhang Meng nodded and punched the monkey hard on the right chest. The monkey didn't move at all because that punch was one of the ways in which the members of their Blue Fox Special Service team expressed their trust.

The treasury of Datang Bank was built in a natural cave of 30 meters. As an expert in robbing bank vaults, when designing this treasury, Zhang Meng had already considered various possible vault defense loopholes. It is not an exaggeration to call it a solid wall.

However, as Zhang Meng himself said, as long as things designed by humans are bound to have loopholes. Zhang Meng dare not be arrogant. It is better to be careful if you should be careful. After all, there are people outside the heavens, so there is no big mistake.

After inspecting the security work of the vault, Zhang Meng asked the monkey to think about how to crack the vault if he was bored. Once he found a method, it proved that there were indeed security vulnerabilities in the vault, and these security vulnerabilities can be discovered in time to improve the security system of the vault.

The monkey agreed happily, and Zhang Meng also found something for him to use his brain to save him from being bored.

When Zhang Meng returned to his residence, Madoff was already waiting for him in the study.

"How is the matter going?"

"Report to your Highness, you have encountered some trouble in your explanation!"

Zhang Meng looked at Madoff with a little anxiety, so he asked, "Trouble? If you can make Madoff feel troubles, you must have encountered big trouble?"

Madoff smiled bitterly, nodded, and explained: "I went to France to negotiate with the bosses of the largest underground banking houses in France according to His Highness's instructions. They had already reached the transaction of francs, and they all said they would only draw 30% of the tax. However, when the contract was about to be signed, the French branch of the Rosscherde family suddenly intervened. They had a strong influence in France. The owners of those banking houses quickly raised the price and demanded that they draw 80% of the tax."

The so-called 50% tax means that when an underground bank exchanges coins for domestic and foreign investors, a certain tax avoidance profit must be drawn according to normal procedures. Since an underground bank illegally conducts currency exchange transactions, it avoids the tax collection threshold of government departments. For bulk currency transactions, avoiding the government can pay less taxes of hundreds of thousands or even tens of millions. Underground bankers draw commissions according to the transaction tax avoidance amount, generally about 10% or 20%, while those with high risks must be 30% to 40%.

Zhang Meng planned to directly inject US$10 billion into France when the financial crisis was about to break out, and then immediately withdrew it. This is a huge currency transaction. If the French underground bank wants to charge 80% of the tax, then it would be meaningless to go to the underground bank to exchange currency. After all, it is risky, so it is safer to go directly to the official French channel.

But the reason why Zhang Meng chose to trade underground money houses was not only because the transaction tax amount of 10 billion US dollars was huge, and going to the underground money houses could save a huge amount of expenses. At the same time, Zhang Meng did not want the French government to find out the source of the huge amount. If the French government found out that the Central Bank of the Tang Empire was acting as an international financial tycoon to attack the French financial industry and illegally made huge profits, it would inevitably affect the relationship between the Tang Empire and France. At the same time, it was equivalent to telling the British that Zhang Meng was in charge of borrowing money to harm the French, and the relationship between Britain and France would inevitably put huge political pressure on the Tang Empire.

Obviously, Zhang Meng has not planned to offend Britain and France, at least not now.

"Have you ever talked to people from the Rothschild family?"

Madoff said in a panic: "Without Your Highness's order, my subordinates dare not contact them. However, they seemed to know that their subordinates had done their business for Your Highness, so they sent someone to hand them a letter to me to my boss behind the scenes."

As he said that, Madoff handed a cowhide believer to Zhang Meng with both hands.

"With the strength of the Rosselder family, they know that you're not surprised at all to do things for me, so you don't have to be nervous."

While Zhang Meng comforted Madoff, his eyes fell on the sealed lacquer of the cowhide envelope.

It was a special hexagonal star mark, with several Jewish letters representing the Rothschild family in the middle.

The first time I saw the special mark of the Rothschild family, Zhang Meng couldn't help but think that when she met Mira, the pattern on her family ring seemed to be there.

Zhang Meng opened it and saw that the first sentence at the beginning was Junjian of His Highness Zhang Meng, the Crown Prince of the Tang Empire, was written in standard Chinese. Zhang Meng couldn't help but smile. It seemed that the Rothschild family was afraid that they would not understand their meaning, so they specially switched to Chinese.

After reading the content, Zhang Meng had no expression. He didn't say anything special in the letter, but just a few simple greetings, asking him to arrange time to meet and discuss in detail with Zhang Meng.

However, Zhang Meng soon realized a dangerous signal.

He suddenly realized that the content of the letter was not written from right to left from top to bottom, but from left to right.

"It's interesting! They even know my habit of reading letters?"
