Limitless Dream

“A golden asteroid worth 10 billion tons..." ”

Chris could no longer conceal the upheaval. Decades of political views have been futile.

10 billion tons of gold.

A social smile that was pressing down on the economic destruction of the mass exploded.

Even if Han Seo-jin is secretly holding and operating three or four nuclear submarines carrying about 100 Megaton-grade tactical nuclear missiles, he wouldn't be more shaky.

10 billion tons of gold. The processing of its destructive power to modern society was nothing compared to a nuclear submarine.

Han Seo-jin watched with a nasty smile.

“Why are you surprised? Already, the HAMC is in the process of scraping rare earth metals from asteroid debris. Of course you thought you could collect gold. Is there anything as common as gold in space? ”

“With what talent do you bring 10 billion tons to Earth? If a meteorite of that mass is dropped, the Earth will be destroyed... ”

“Of course, we have to break it down into pieces like rare earth metals. ”

“ ……. ”

Chris shut up.

Nevertheless, each developed country was looking to the HAMC for suspicion. It was due to the availability of Ether Wave Repeater (EWR) space weapons.

HAMCs have been denying that the maximum output of EWR is no more than 2 kg, and have been extremely unlikely to be used as a weapon. EWR claims that intercontinental ballistics are more than 10,000 times more efficient.

However, breaking down 10 billion tonnes of asteroids requires a large physical force that is different in dimensions than dropping rare earth metal debris to the ground.

What if we could harness that power in space? It's like a tactical weapon, isn't it?

“Has the EWR been compromised by the possibility of weaponization? ”

“That's not an appropriate example. In fact, any tool in the world can be used as a weapon. The same goes for this ballpoint pen that I'm holding right now. It's just a question of how efficient, how lethal. ”

“ ……. ”

“EWR is a device that slowly transmits waves to asteroids to alter their combined state or trajectory for long periods of time. It's too inefficient for weapons. ”

Han Seo-jin sighed and said.

“And I'm not threatening to drop 10 billion tons of meteorite on Earth, am I? ”

The possibility of a destructive stage has been completely denied. Chris clearly realized that it wasn't time to pay attention to that.

It was time to pay attention to the destructive force as an ‘economic weapon'.

“You're going to resurrect the real gold standard? ”

“I didn't have to covet the Federation Bank. ”

“If 10 billion tons of gold are distributed to the market, that value will plummet. It's like a piece of paper. and the global economy collapses in an instant. ”

That's what Chris was afraid of.

Is it because he's not in the economy?

When 10 billion tons of gold pours out, the market will be shocked by more than an intercontinental ballistic spill across the globe.

“Was the money system originally from the gold standard? If you bring me $100, I'll give you that much gold. I've heard that trust in credit currencies is built on gold. ”

Hanseojin placed a small electronic device on his desk and made a holographic video as light flashed through the air. Chris grumbled at the enormous golden meteorite that appeared in the video.

“The United States has actually abolished its gold standard, but the dollar is still holding on to its sovereign position in solid trust. The trust in gold has shifted to the value of the United States. ”

There will be no collateral damage or loss of value in the United States. Such international trust is protecting the value of the dollar.

“Of course, this is something that high school students should know. ”

“…… Why are you talking about that? ”

“The status of fiat currencies is inherently shaped by people's credit and trust. Then there's no reason to release 10 billion tons to the market. Isn't that right?”

“Really?"

Chris' complexion turned pale. By the time a specific picture was drawn in his head, Seojin quickly snatched the next horse.

“If we can trust that we actually have 10 billion tons, and we can exchange them at any time, there's no reason to release 10 billion tons to the market. The market economy doesn't collapse. ”

“Doctor!"

“What happens when I combine the gold reserves and my reputation to capture a new currency worth around 50 dollars? ”

“The United States will never accept such a thing...! ”

“I'm an American, too, Chris. ”

“ ……! ”

Chris is stuck in his head. It felt like a firecracker had made the brain go crazy.

He's right.

We don't need to bring 10 billion tons to Earth. If you can guarantee people the certainty that you can bring it at any time, it's like having 10 billion tons in your personal vault.

That's what credit looks like.

The world will no longer credit the dollar. It will grant trust to a new currency that guarantees 100% gold exchange.

The Federal Reserve can be easily acquired without having to rob the Federal Reserve Bank.

“Wouldn't the world praise that the United States and I have teamed up to build a new order of money? because the interest rate and the amount of money that's being adjusted would be better for very few people in the world to have a monopoly on ticketing. ”

“Since when have you been……. ”

“Let's just say the Circle has been on my nerves ever since. ”

I thought he was a gentle man. However, what is in front of me was a full-blown predator.

Chris shuts up in a cold sweat. I didn't know what to say or how to deal with this situation.

Circle's favorite dollar ticket was 10 billion tonnes of fireflies in front of the sun.

“We still have a chance to make things right. ”

“ ……! ”

In a soft voice, Chris's mind flashes as if he were splashed with cold water.

“Whatever your background, your election process, you are now the president of the greatest nation in the world. And I am a citizen of excessive honor in that country. ”

“…… Doctor. That means……. ”

“Will you hold onto the rotten rope and then fall down the cliff with your friends?" Or do you want to leave behind a glorious achievement as president? ”

“ ……. ”

Chris stares at you dumbfounded and opens his stuttering mouth.

“Are you...... flirting with me? ”

“I can give you a chance. ”

“ ……. ”

Chris stumbles across the table, frozen. My legs relax, and my back is damp.

I never imagined this moment would come.

To protect the interests of money capitalists, circles, and money capitalists, they became presidents by their will. And I flew to Korea to make friends with Seojin, who would be the biggest obstacle.

But I never thought I'd get a counteroffer like this.

“I am the static that brought out President Cleton. ”

“For real justice, I'm sure the president will understand, too. He's my best friend. ”

“How far is your greed……? ”

I had no idea he was so greedy.

Beyond taking possession of the Federation Bank, you're going to create a new order and render it incapacitated. What are you going to do after you have that order?

“At least I won't take advantage of money disruption. Rather, I want to see a world where order born in my hands is firmly embedded in people's trust. If it's greed, then greed. ”

“You……. ”

“Actually, studying ethers is the same reason. ”

As Han Seo-jin said that, he suddenly remembered Table A.

The pursuit of order and truth, perhaps in that way they resemble themselves.

Rather than sitting on a few billion dollar cushion and laughing, watching the world's own creations take place among people. Whether it's ether or fiat money.

It was not Renault or King Arthur's order, but his greed and dreams that were firmly rooted in this world.

“Why, why are you doing this to me? Why...! ”

“No matter what you think, no matter what you've done, a position as the new President of the United States of America is worth it. ”

Han Seo-jin slowly turned his back and left a final note.

“Think about what's really important. ”

* * *

When I first came into the hall leaving Chris alone, people looked at me all at once. Everyone was curious about what they were talking about with the President.

Song Hana, who was naturally hanging out with middle-aged white wives, came to me secretly.

“What's taking you so long? ”

“It's nothing. ”

“You're not arguing, are you? ”

“Why did I argue? But his name is the President of the United States. ”

“I wish you hadn't. ”

Song Han smiled, and Seojin smiled at her.

She was twenty-one years old and young, but she naturally hung out with middle-aged wives who made multinational entrepreneurs husbands. Rather, it was most noticeable thanks to its young age and beautiful beauty.

I am conscious of being envious of other men. I felt the strength of my shoulders.

"Federal fucking banks. ’

Not a single lover knows about 10 billion tonnes of asteroids. A secret that no one knows, but has now grown to two.

‘How will it come out? ’

Chris is politically deficient, but characterized by a successful catastrophe. Monetary capitalists were good at building trust and empathy.

Even if they become presidents by their will, will they try to step in with them in this situation?

“One.”

“Yes, brother. ”

“Can I make some money now? ”

“Yes?”

Song Na opened her eyes wide as if to say something. Such a cute reaction made Seojin smile.

“What are you talking about? So what's in your account right now? ”

“That's money, too. ”

“Why are you suddenly saying that when you're the richest man in the world? Wait.”

Song Yang narrows his eyes and looks at his face.

“Hey, you got something planned? Right?"

“Well, I do have one good item. ”

“What is it? Is it alchemy? ”

“What's with the alchemy all of a sudden? ”

“I don't think my brother would say, 'Let's make some money by developing new semiconductors or selling medicine.' I wonder if it's some kind of alchemy that makes stones out of money. I think the ether will do just about anything. ”

“Alchemy... ”

Han Seo-jin pictured a small, golden asteroid in a universe far from Earth.

“Well, something like that. ”

Reviews of works

Chris, your breasts are pretty wide, huh?

I could give you a hug.
