As for you, Baron, you have a certain 'savoir faire', go and buy some for 20%, 30%, even 100% more. I've got the whole lot in my wallet, they won't be able to deliver any, we'll sell them for what we like and providence will do the rest. - (Bertrand) Forward march against the dupes, let's cash in... fly... etc.

Correction: In our last edition instead of "The mayor has given birth to twins" it should read: "He has returned into town."

While the clients are reading the newspapers, the thieves will pillage to their home.
