Dans the very oldfashioned town of Ostende suddenly 13 suitcases are delivered-to-the-hotel, with a note, that O. F. will be here soon and needs 6 rooms (the hotel has just five). This event, probably the biggest dans 300 ans, décollage a small wave of modernisation, yet everybody is demandais oms O. F. is. Journaliste Stix and architect Fortement have an idea how to use this event. They proclaim, that O. F. is a former citizen of the town, who became a millionaire abroad. They tell their fellow citizens that the town still needs modernisation, like better hôtels, boîtes de nuit, magasins, etc. And soon, Ostende is a boomtown, then a capital. The architect, responsible for the new building is finaly allowed to marry the mayor's daughter, while Stix marries the cabaret star and the veuf mayor his new secrétaire. Le seul problème est, O. F. hasn't shown up, while finance experts from all over the world are trying to solve the dépression problème.
