Holy Roman Empire
596 The Emperor's Recipe
Gerston was not blinded by the good news in front of him. Although the interests of the Ottoman Empire alone were good, it was not possible for the British family to support the Ottoman Empire to contain Austria.
Now that the Ottoman Empire is declining, the Vienna government can stand by and let them act.Once the Ottoman Empire showed signs of rise, the situation changed immediately.
If the Vienna government suddenly had a whimsy one day and wanted to pull off the nail behind it, the British were actually unmatched.
The London government cannot fight for the Ottomans and Austria, and regardless of the outcome, it will only be cheaper for the French.
Therefore, the launch of the French is the best choice. It does not ask how much the Ottoman Empire can play. As long as they exist, it can prevent Austria from entering the European conquest.
In the case of not being able to go all out, Austria naturally has no way to break through the obstacles to the unification of the German region. Even for its own strategic security, the Austrians must also drag the French.
Fao pulls behind each other, and the British can play a balance between the two to achieve their strategic goals.
Maclean shook his head: "Prime Minister, this is probably a little troublesome. The French financial community is not optimistic about the Ottoman Empire. After the Second Near East War, the French bank did not issue a loan to the Ottoman government.
When Napoleon III was in power, his relationship with the financial world was terrible, and there is still no relaxation.Even if the Paris government is willing to support the Ottoman Empire, they will not be able to provide too much money."
Don't look at the French financial community as a supporter of Napoleon III, it is believed that there is no conflict between the two sides. In fact, since Napoleon III encouraged the development of the real economy and the establishment of state-owned banks, the two sides have parted ways.
The original time and space Napoleon III was ousted by financial capitalists, and now there is no big defeat in the Franco-Prussian War, and the financial capitalists naturally have no strength to jump back.
However, the deterioration of the relationship between the financial sector and the Paris government is also an indisputable fact. After the succession of Napoleon IV, although the Paris government was noisy, it still continued the economic policies of the era of Napoleon III.
For example: levying heavy taxes on the financial industry, restricting the maximum interest on loans in accordance with the legal situation, cracking down on financial speculation, etc.
For national development, these practices are undoubtedly correct.But for financial capital, this blocked their way of making money.
Of course, in this era of booming French economy, financial capitalists still take the biggest cake, but people will never be content, especially capitalists.
The emperor thought that financial capital would make money while lying down, and the benefits were enough to be able to afford them, but financial capitalists did not think so.
The overall situation and long-term development have nothing to do with them. The capitalists only want to take more benefits.How is the development of the country related to them?
The contradiction between the two parties is thus generated, and the relationship becomes complicated.
On the one hand, the capitalists recognized the contribution of Napoleon III in economic development; on the other hand, they disgusted that Napoleon III set restrictions, which prevented everyone from making money.
The most direct impact of the deterioration of the relationship between the two parties is the weakening of the financing capacity of the Paris government. When you want to mobilize a large amount of capital, you must first obtain the approval of the capitalists.
If both sides agree, and both think they can make money, then everything is easy to discuss.On the contrary, the financial sector will not cooperate.
Now the French financial community believes that providing loans to the Ottoman government is a high-risk business. Under this background, unless the Paris government personally guarantees, otherwise the capitalists will not buy it.
Of course, it is also possible to exchange interests in secret.Many international loans, from the beginning, everyone knew that if they could not get it back after they were released, it would still be released. That is the result of the exchange of interests behind them.
For capitalists, even if loans become bad debts, losses can still be transferred out.For example: engage in a vest company to undertake business and then sell it to the public in the form of bonds.
Every year, banks and securities companies with more than three figures in the world go bankrupt, a large part of which is intentional by capitalists.Anyway, the executives and the boss made money, and it was only ordinary investors who lost money in the end.
Gerston frowned: "Then let the French participate in the currency issuance of the Ottoman Empire. In addition to the tariffs that must be obtained, we can make some concessions in other respects."
Capitalists are the most difficult creatures to deal with, and the easiest creatures to deal with.As long as the benefits are in place, all problems are not problems.
Prime Minister Gerston initially promised the French to train the Ottoman army, which is actually equivalent to giving up the Ottoman arms market.
The "arms trade" is profitable, but the arms market in the Ottoman Empire is different. The biggest problem is that the Ottoman government has no money.
When the government has no money, it is naturally impossible to update its armaments. This seemingly profitable market is actually a cake.
In contrast, tariffs and currency issuance are the real benefits.
Controlling a country's tariffs is equivalent to controlling a country's market; controlling a country's currency issuance is equivalent to controlling a country's economic lifeline.
The best way to buy financial capitalists is to involve them in currency issuance.
As it happens, the British have the ability to eat this part of the interest, but there is no way to keep this part of the interest. It is also a real need to share it with the French.
...
Vienna Palace, just ended a special trip, Franz only felt tired physically and mentally.
Originally, he thought that he had "house" in his previous life because he had no money. Now he finds that this is not just a problem of "poor". In essence, he is a "house".
This didn't go back to his old nest, and he relaxed easily.To celebrate the return, the fish in the artificial lake suffered again.
As a pragmatist, Franz, like ornamental fish, never raises fish. Edible fish are kept in artificial lakes.
This aspect is almost contrary to the Austrian cultural tradition. Most Austrians do not like to eat seafood, especially fish, shrimp, crabs and the like. They must not go to the table during the holiday.
The reason is very strange. I do n’t like crabs because crabs walk sideways, which violates the natural laws endowed by God. I do n’t like shrimps because shrimps walk backwards, and the symbolic meaning is not good.
I don't like eating because I don't like it.
Of course, most people in this era are not yet eligible for picky eating.It doesn't matter whether you like it or not, the key is that fish, shrimp and crab are relatively cheaper.
In addition to festivals, fish is usually the main meat on civilian tables.Taking the price of Vienna as an example, the price of 1 kg of beef = 1.4 kg of lamb = 2.3 kg of pork = 3 kg of goose = 4 kg of fish.
Prices vary from place to place. Fish and meat are relatively cheap in coastal and river areas, and beef and mutton are relatively cheap in grassland areas. However, beef is generally the most expensive, and fish and poultry are the cheapest.
The perception of the outside world did not affect the Franz recipe at all, but the Emperor's recipe affected the diet of the Austrians.
Ups and downs are indispensable in any society.
Franz never cared about whether the ingredients were expensive or cheap, as long as they were delicious.
Under the butterfly effect of Franz, many cuisines from all over the world were introduced in advance and took root here, and the Austrian people's dining tables have been enriched a lot.
Looking at the buoys in the water, Franz turned the pulley quickly to tighten the fishing line.
The movement in the water was getting bigger and bigger, and the hooked fish all came out of the water, and Franz's joy disappeared.
The eye is a small fish about seven or eight centimeters, and the Franz of the Shenma breed does not care anymore. He is thinking about how to eat such a small fish?
Deep-fried, steamed, and teriyaki, unfortunately even the soup is too small.No way, this is Franz's record in the morning.
Haikou all stepped out. It was good to use the fish he caught for cooking at noon today, but the result was that there was no fish on the hook, which made Franz very embarrassed.
You know that this artificial lake is not small. The fish in the lake have been living for many years. Except for the emperor Franz who occasionally came to scourge once, usually no one would pay attention to them.
As far as Franz stands, he can see fish swimming in the clear lake water, and the size is not small, but there is no fish on the hook.
After hesitating again and again, Franz decided to release this hard-won record.It is estimated that there are no more than one or two in this body. Franz really does not want to embarrass the chef.
As for the lunch issue, it does n’t matter. Now that the rules are changed, since you do n’t need to hook up, use an Internet cafe.
