The liar of the king's rank!
In 1822, a migrant ship slowly sailed away from the British port, with a total of 70 passengers on board, and their destination was the Central American state of Poyas, roughly located in what is now Niagara and the East Sea of Honduras. It is described as a paradise-like country, with no heat in summer and no severe cold in winter, majestic mountains, lush forests, fertile land, abundant corn, cattle and sheep, geese and ducks, tree-lined avenues through busy plantations and crystal clear rivers. The river flows into the sea on the pristine sand, and there is no shortage of gold and gem mines here, and you can knock on a piece and take it home if you want. The people of Poyas, all are rich people, they casually circle a piece of land, they can easily earn millions a year, of course, Poas is not without shortcomings, the biggest drawback here is that there are too few people, he has no one to mine gold, sugarcane is not planted, the government is not done, such a good resource is wasted, it is a pity. In order to solve this problem, the prince of Persia personally came to England to look for opportunities, the prince of Persia, called Gregor McGregor, directly called him Rego, Rego is a very frank person, he came to England to do only three things, sell land, sell land, or sell land, at that time the British only need to spend 3600 to buy six acres of Boyas land, this price is the average British one day's wages, so, at that time, there were many people who bought thousands of acres or even tens of thousands of acres of land, they can directly immigrate to Poyas, Then jump to become a farmer. The 70 men on the migration ship were the first wave of immigrants, who sold all their British possessions and then took their wives and children to the beautiful new world, and before they set out, they exchanged all their gold and silver for Poyas, which was enough money for them to play in the new world. A ship sailed at sea for two months, and two months later the 70 men arrived in Poias, and when they disembarked, the sight shocked everyone, and it was desolate, with no gold or gem mines at all, not even a trace of towns and villages. Only then did they suddenly realize that something bad had happened, and Rego had deceived them. Just as the so-called misfortune is not alone, a storm blew the migrant ship away, so they can only camp on the beach, a stab is four months, during this period, they also try to seek help from the aborigines, but the aborigines do not have a big ship, do not know how to help them, and this is not the most tragic, four months later, the second migrant ship also came to Poas, this time, there are nearly 200 passengers on board, they took the leaflet and began to look for the capital St. Joseph, looking for it, the two groups will be reconciled, When the second wave of people learned that they had been deceived, the migrant ship had left the coast, so they also camped on the beach, encamped on such an almost isolated beach, the evil of human nature began to be gradually amplified, some people committed suicide, some people were killed, with the arrival of the rainy season, a wave of infectious diseases swept through the camp, when the second wave of immigrants arrived in the Persian Gulf, a passing merchant ship saved them, the original 250 immigrants, in the end only 50 people returned to England alive, when these 50 people returned to Britain, Rego's hoax has also finally been debunked. So how exactly did the scam come about? In fact, Rego is not a Persian prince, he was born in England, by chance, he met the king of Honduras, the two people called brothers, the relationship is very good, so the king granted the place of Poyas to Rego, Rego needs to regularly pay tribute to the king rum and jewelry, at first, Rego was very happy, he wanted to build an empire of his own in Poas, but soon, he found the problem, Poas this side of the place is too desolate, can not plant land, can not raise livestock, In addition to the good scenery, other aspects are useless, watching Boyas to smash in his hands, Rego suddenly had a genius idea, he pretended to be a Prince of Persia to return to London, and then began to sell the land, before that, the story of Rego has been spread in England, so Rego is easy to gain everyone's trust, in order to make everyone more willing to spend money to buy land, Rego published a 355-page promotional brochure, in this book, Rego graphically describes Poas as a utopian world, and Rego also describes Poas as a prosperous civilized country with cities, theaters, churches, villas, banks, parliaments, laws, and police. In order to do enough tricks, Rego also forged maps, forged state-owned enterprises, forged Poyas coins, and even now, the book has to confuse people. At that time, the British flocked to buy land, many people in order to buy land at the expense of selling British houses, and Rego not only directly sold the land, it issued The Boyas Treasury Bonds, in just two years, the Treasury Bonds he issued were about 2 billion pounds now, and his own direct profits were estimated to have hundreds of millions of pounds. And the British who bought the land, they really wanted to emigrate to Poias, they wanted to feel the happiness of the capitalists, and at the constant urging of the buyers, Rego arranged a total of seven immigration ships, the first 70 people, and the second one. 200 people, the third migrant ship has not yet arrived in Poias, the British government received the news of being deceived, so the next five migrant ships in the middle, was stopped by the British Navy, which avoided greater casualties, and Rego himself knew that when the immigrants arrived in Poias, it meant that the scam was completely exposed, so after Rego sent the seven ships out of the port, he quickly rolled up and fled to France. If you think that Rego will retire and reform, you are very wrong, and if the British can deceive, then why can't the French? Subsequently, Rego issued about 900 million national bonds in the same way, and then, thousands of people bought land, and when these people were ready to take a boat to Poas, the French government suddenly found that there was no Poas country in Central America, obviously, there must be a cat in it, and finally Rego was arrested in France and squatted for seven months, and after the big guy was released from prison, he returned to his hometown in England, and for the next ten years, Rego still claimed to be the prince of Poas, continuing to sell the so-called land certificates. As for the effect, that's less than ideal...#Story# #骗子骗局 #
