Blackstone Code

There was no sound in the conference room. People were either looking at Lynch or thinking about what he just said.

"Issuing... a new version of currency?"

Someone repeated Lynch's "solution" and then couldn't help laughing, "Mr. Lynch, how much do you know about issuing currency?"

"Are you thinking about this too simply? You must know that issuing a new version of currency is a very complicated matter. It also involves many situations. It cannot be issued just by issuing it."

This is not a "criticism", it is just an expression of his own opinion, so Lynch will not "counterattack" forcefully.

Everyone is providing ideas to solve problems, so there is no competition.

Lin Qi nodded slightly, "I have two banks under my command that have the right to issue currency."

The smile on the speaker's face was fixed on his face before it faded.

He forgot about it!

Lynch's two banks don't have much publicity in the federation. One is Gefra's Blackstone Bank and the other is the central bank of the Lemar Islands.

Both banks have the right to issue currency, and the central bank of the Lemar Islands is the only issuing bank!

When it comes to issuing currency, the people here are indeed not as "experienced" as he is!

Seeing that no one else objected, Connor immediately became interested.

He does not need to master too much complicated knowledge. He only needs to know that when no one objects to a suggestion, it means that at least the suggestion is "not bad."

Even if you fail to achieve your expected goals, it won't make it worse!

"Tell me carefully!"

Lin Qi nodded, and everyone naturally stayed silent and looked at him quietly.

"I think now is the best time to issue a new currency."

"First of all, the version of currency we are currently using was issued nearly 40 years ago."

"It can no longer keep up with people's aesthetics in terms of aesthetics, size, etc."

"In addition to the Federation's prominent position in the international community, there are reasons and necessity for us to issue a new version of currency to determine the Federal Sol's special status in the international foreign exchange market!"

"Our new currency should be more international, embodying more federal-specific things in the currency, so that foreigners can naturally accept and use the new currency."

"Currently, our mainstream currency has the faces of several presidents. If you are not a federal person, would you like the federal sol and the foreigners on it?"

"I think so, but not much!"

"Especially for some people who have a strong sense of nationalism and nationalism, they are unlikely to take the initiative to use an international currency with obvious foreign characteristics."

"If we want the Federal Sol to become more influential and more internationally accepted, we must internationalize our currency..."

"As for portraits... they can be printed on coins."

Someone couldn't help interrupting Lynch at this time, "Mr. Lynch, I'm sorry, I have a question."

“If we take some of the faces of former presidents off our banknotes, what should we put on them?”

Lynch replied matter-of-factly, "Of course it's this planet, or some famous mountains or monuments."

"What we want to do is internationalize, so we can't leave too many federal colors."

"Sure, we can move them onto the coins."

The questioner asked again, "But now there are some faces of former presidents on the coins..."

Lynch asked, "Who stipulates that only one type of print can be printed?"

Look, the problem was solved at once. Lynch's eyes quickly turned to Connor, and his vague smile gave Connor an indescribable feeling.

But then he was stunned for a moment and realized what Lynch was implying.

Maybe it was Lynch's hint, or maybe he was overthinking it, but he thought it was Lynch's hint, and his heartbeat accelerated slightly.

Putting his face on currency is something every president wants to do.

But only a handful of people have such qualifications. If Lynch hadn't discussed this matter, Mr. Trueman's face would have been printed on currency in about ten or twenty years.

But in the past few decades, there has been only Mr. Trueman, who is willing to admit that he is worse than others?

Connor would not admit that he was worse than Mr. Trueman. He just lacked a chance to prove himself.

But now, there is an honest opportunity to have his face printed on currency. Although it is a coin,... this is at least an opportunity!

A president who has his own "exclusive currency" and a president who doesn't are absolutely two different things.

Moreover, the circulation of coins is faster and wider!

What Lynch proposed is a good idea!

He immediately made a judgment.

So he directly interrupted everyone's discussion and asked, "How long does it take to design a new currency and print it?"

Lynch gave a not too long answer, "In a month or two, and with the issuance of a new version of currency, we can also improve the anti-counterfeiting measures of currency!"

Connor was very satisfied with Lynch's suggestion. It solved the problem of real and counterfeit coins, made it more difficult to counterfeit new currencies, and at the same time made the Federal Sol more international in style!

What is talent?

This is called talent!

Connor nodded with satisfaction and said, "Can your bank issue currency in Gefra now?"

Lynch nodded yes, “We are one of the major issuers and provide a lot of anti-counterfeiting technology.”

Connor seemed to have thought of something, "So you can also directly print the new Fra?"

Lynch coughed and did not answer. Connor also realized that he had asked a stupid question, so he federally covered it up.

"In this case, the design of the New Federal Sol was not limited to the issuing bank, but Blackstone Bank also participated in the design. This matter must be resolved as soon as possible."

"Also, on the basis of the existing anti-counterfeiting methods, continue to add more anti-counterfeiting methods. It must be difficult and easy to distinguish!"

"I hope that our people can easily distinguish real banknotes from counterfeit banknotes with just a few simple methods, which will also help us combat counterfeit banknotes."

The meeting ended quickly and everyone else left, but Lynch stayed.

Connor acted enthusiastic, "How did you come up with this great idea?"

He asked his secretary to go out and buy two cups of coffee. He was not used to drinking coffee from the Presidential Palace, which also made some people think that he was inferior to Mr. Trueman.

At least Mr. Trueman can put up with cheap, bad "office coffee," while Connor, as president, actually has to buy takeout!

But Connor ignored these criticisms. He even felt that removing the coffee machine from the pantry and no longer purchasing coffee beans was the stupidest decision ever made by the Presidential Palace!

Of course, it is not surprising that this happened during the Conservative government.

Lynch picked up the newspaper on his desk and flipped through two pages. "I have had this idea for a long time, but I never had the chance. This happened recently. I think this is a good opportunity."

“If the federation wants to become international, it must give up something.”

Connor smiled happily, thinking that he would also appear on the currency, and now whatever Lynch said seemed right to him.

"You should also keep an eye on the design of the coin. Show it to me after you finish it." This sentence was said with a bit of expectation and a bit of guilt.

On the one hand, I am afraid that if I say it too obviously, I will appear to have a...low style!

On the other hand, Connor was afraid that he had misunderstood Lynch's meaning, and he had not understood his own thoughts!

How could Lynch not realize what Connor was thinking?

This is the result he wants. Only if Connor is willing to actively promote it will he give the final signature to this decision.

If he doesn’t sign, new currency cannot be issued!

Lin Qi agreed, "I will definitely design it beautifully, don't worry..."

After Connor saw that Lynch roughly understood what he meant, he asked him to go back.

After returning home, Lynch gathered people to start designing a new currency. According to his idea, a hundred-denomination currency would have a planet on the front, and the denomination and pattern would be written directly on the back.

The fifty yuan denomination is the highest in the world.

Naturally, the currencies below are similar, and they are all based on world famous places and historic sites.

As for the coins that Connor was so concerned about, Lynch designed not only Connor's coins, but also Mr. Trueman's coins.

His face will be on the dollar coin, as will Connor.

This may be the only way to get Mr. Trueman's face on currency.

Designing these patterns actually doesn't take much time, and it's not the first time Lynch has the people at his disposal to design currency.

The design work of the new currencies of Lemar and Gevra was completed independently. Now it is naturally not a big trouble to design the new currency of the Federation.

In just three days, Lynch delivered the beautiful model to the Presidential Palace.

Connor looked directly at the coin design, saw himself on the one-dollar coin, and immediately smiled from ear to ear.

"Isn't it... a bit exaggerated?" Connor felt a little uneasy after he was happy. The previous presidents had never done this.

He stamped himself on it, feeling a little guilty.

And it’s still only a dollar!

He originally thought that twenty-five points was actually not bad!

He is different from Mr. Trueman. No matter how you say it, Mr. Trueman also made the Federation become the "number one in the world" through the war.

No one would say that he is unsuitable if his achievements are worth a dollar coin. But he has just taken office and has not yet made any outstanding achievements. Will this... make some people look down on him?

"The design is good, but...why did you include me in the design?"

Connor expressed his thoughts in a "I'm not blaming you, I'm just trying to make the conversation less awkward" way.

Lynch didn't care, "The first president after the war will also have a high status in history, and I don't think you will be a failed president."

"Instead of waiting for someone to do it decades later, we should do it first."

Connor felt very comfortable after hearing this. It was absolutely impossible for him to veto him, but he also thought of a good way.

"I feel that one dollar...is not suitable for me, so let me..." He made a downward motion with his hand.

It's all just as Lynch envisioned it, "Fifty?"

"No, twenty-five points!" Connor's tone was firm this time, as if saying this would eliminate his guilt.

All for the fucking Federation!
