Chapter 1031 - 352, do not merge_3
This has made Donnie and Antonio Carmona become very good friends!
"Invite Antonio Carmona to the United States?" Robert asked excitedly: "Are we finally going to make a move on the Portuguese central bank?"
Last year, after Donnie learned about the Alves Reis affair, he began to lay out plans regarding Portugal.
Only three or four people around Donnie know about this.
Although the market value of the Portuguese central bank itself cannot even compare to the current Venus Bank, it is, after all, a country’s central bank. As long as you control the central bank, you effectively control the country’s finances. The wealth hidden behind this control is enormous.
That’s why Robert is very excited now!
Donnie nodded and said: "That’s right, Kritch has sent news that Alves Reis has already circulated the counterfeit currency he produced into Portugal. Now it’s time for us to close the net. Once we publicize this, it will certainly trigger a financial and political crisis in Portugal!"
In another timeline, Antonio Carmona seized the moment when Alves Reis’s counterfeit currency case erupted, causing dissatisfaction among the Portuguese populace with their government and triggering a financial crisis, to launch an armed coup and take control of Portugal!
What Donnie intends to do now is to trigger this incident ahead of time!
When Donnie first shared this plan with Robert and the others, they initially thought Donnie wanted to seize the 100 million Escudos from Alves Reis, which is only 10 million US Dollars. Donnie didn’t need to go to the trouble of seizing those!
Leaving the 100 million Escudos in Alves Reis’s hands and letting him use those funds to disrupt the Portuguese financial market is the key!
