Controlling the Five Thunders and the Two Worlds

Chapter 439 Yun Feiang Comes to Pay Respects

Public opinion explodes!

Fifty thousand tons of gold paired with two hundred thousand tons of silver—literally a mountain of gold and a sea of ​​silver!
"Ah! My eyes!"

"Although I haven't seen it yet, and I don't think I'll get a chance to visit, I still feel like my eyes have been blinded by the brilliance!"

"Please, just one visit and a photo with the golden mountains and silver sea, and I'll be satisfied for the rest of my life."

The announcement alone caused a sensation in the country, and everyone was eagerly anticipating it.

Even if you can't visit the site, seeing photos and videos of the event is enough to satisfy you.

Moreover, this announcement dispelled all doubts and conspiracy theories online, proved the authenticity of the 50,000 tons of gold, and passed the buck to Citibank across the ocean.

Tianxia dares to display 50,000 tons of gold for public viewing, yet Citizens' senators were denied access to Fort Knox – the contrast is stark.

The Fort Knox vault, which stores more than 4,000 tons of gold, is the core of the United States' gold reserves. It is heavily guarded and visitors are strictly prohibited.

However, conspiracy theories are rampant in the United States, and there have long been rumors that this heavily guarded vault, which was never subject to inspection, had been completely corrupted and that the gold inside had been secretly transferred and divided among those important figures.

In 1974, to dispel rumors, the vault was opened to the media, but only six percent was shown.

From then on, the vault was once again placed under martial law, with almost no "outsiders" allowed to enter, and even applications from senators to visit were denied.

Later, some people publicly stated that they would investigate the vault, but all of these efforts came to nothing.

Now that the other side of the ocean is about to open 50,000 tons of gold reserves for public viewing, is there any need for them to hide their 4,000 tons of gold?
"Where did they get the gold from? Do they really have a magic spell that turns everything into gold?"

"Can they really swim underwater? Don't they need to breathe, and aren't they afraid of the pressure of the deep sea?"

"Fifty thousand tons of gold! They're just putting it out there for everyone to see. Aren't they afraid someone will rob it?"

On the other side of the ocean, in the underground office, everyone was arguing.

"Don't be ridiculous. Even if everyone in the United States carried a gun, I didn't see anyone robbing Fort Knox," Lawrence said calmly. "If you don't dare to open it up, just say you don't dare to open it up. There's no need to make excuses."

“Lawrence, watch your words,” someone said coldly. “Whether Fort Knox is open or not is not for us to decide.”

“I know.” Lawrence smiled. “The Lawrence family has no connection with Fort Knox, nor has it ever taken any gold from it, so whether Fort Knox is open or not is none of our business, dear Adams.”

Adams's lips twitched, he snorted coldly, and said nothing more.

"Alright, stop arguing." Rockefeller tapped the table. "They just posted an announcement, without mentioning us at all, and we're already arguing amongst ourselves. What kind of behavior is this!"

"Because the 50,000 tons of gold on the other side was given by superhumans, it's related to us," Frank snorted. "Does the Superpower Special Operations Bureau have anyone capable of deep diving? Let's go to the Atlantic and see if we can find 100,000 tons of gold ore."

Rockefeller laughed in exasperation, "Even if they could find it, they wouldn't have a treasure big enough to hold 100,000 tons of raw gold ore!"

Most people only saw the dazzling 50,000 tons of gold, but those with a little discernment all focused their attention on the gourds in the hands of the three old Taoist priests.

Last time when the rain stopped, the distance was too far and it was barely visible, but this time the three old Taoist priests only rose a few dozen meters into the air, and the video captured it clearly.

Three gourds, each the size of a palm, released a mountain of gold!
Space equipment! "We should be thankful that this kind of space equipment can only be used by the Taoists on the other side, and that the Taoists on the other side do not participate in national affairs, otherwise they could have simply placed the Dongfeng Express directly into our territory."

"They probably won't do that, will they?" someone asked timidly.

Rockefeller glanced at the other person and said, "Whether the other person does it or not is not important. What is important is that the other person has no need to do this."

Using space equipment to deliver strategic weapons?
How low-class!
It's so simple: a bolt of lightning from the other side could just strike you dead. It wouldn't pollute the environment at all, and it wouldn't trigger a nuclear war.

The man gave an awkward smile, mainly because he was used to the fact that the most powerful weapons in the world were strategic weapons, and when he saw this space equipment that could transport strategic weapons, it was easy to make the connection.

Looking back now, it really wasn't necessary.

They managed to find their meeting room last time. If they really wanted to, this time the meeting would be with a different group of people.

One of the main functions of strategic weapons is decapitation strikes as a deterrent. Now that the other side has so many humanoid strategic weapons, if they want to take action, it would be very simple and easy.

But the feeling of being cut by a dull knife is also very painful!

"How do we respond if the other side suddenly has an extra 50,000 tons of gold reserves?" someone asked.

Although this department was established to deal with the superhumans on the other side, each person in the department has a vested interest group behind them, and is also closely related to the financial hegemony of the United States.

Rockefeller looked at Eric sitting across from him and asked, "What are you planning to do about the White House?"

Eric, who had been sitting silently listening to the argument, finally spoke up: "If we question the authenticity of the gold on the other side, will it provoke retaliation from those superhumans?"

“Our analysis is that they won’t. They’re not so bored as to bother with a rogue,” Rockefeller said calmly. “But that’s easy to be proven wrong. We don’t even need those superhumans to intervene. The Tianxia system is not something we can easily manipulate.”

Eric nodded. "Then we'll have to use the second method."

"any solution?"

The following day, the President of the United States posted on social media, congratulating Tianxia on acquiring 50,000 tons of gold reserves. He also announced to the world that he had just received news that the United States had been quietly mining and purchasing gold over the past fifty years, and that Fort Knox's gold reserves had also reached 50,000 tons.

Including its gold reserves across the country, the United States remains the world's largest holder of gold reserves.

"The United States remains the greatest and richest country in the world!"

Thank you for your attention!

……

The people of the Daluo Palace did not care about the foreign countries' reactions. They only needed to be sure that the 50,000 tons of gold would not have any negative impact on Tianxia.

At this time, Gu Zhao had already returned to the Daluo Palace with Daoist Yanqi and the other two, because Yun Feiang from the Yuntian Divine Palace in Shanzhou had come to pay his respects.

At the entrance of the main hall of the Daluo Palace, Gu Zhao's eyes gleamed with divine light. He saw that Yun Feiang was accompanied by a beautiful woman with a seductive figure, and behind them were two burly men he had seen at Hongguang Mountain. The four of them rode the wind.
