Austria 1840
Vol 2 Chapter 49: If you're fine, he's not sunny
Thinking of industry, little Carl thought of a crooked idea.
What industry is better to do now? Actually anything will do. Any machinery is the blooming period of demand.
It is still far from the first economic crisis that swept the whole of Europe. Of course, the harm caused by this economic depression is quite large. That is, the European Revolution in 1848, which covered all of Europe, and even affected South America and North Africa.
Thinking of setting up a school in Northern Italy, the books and textbooks must be printed, plus the nostalgic memoirs for Maria Ludvica, as well as biographies of related people, records of the Northern Italian War, etc. .
Of course, there are also his crooked ideas, which will be discussed later.
Therefore, the printing factory can be run smoothly.
"Uncle Carl, Aunt Mary, which printing press is better?"
"Oh, there is a printing press company in Wurzburg, Bavaria, called Koenig and Bauer, which is well-known in the industry, and is considered a relatively good company for printing presses."
The old war **** was sitting on a raised stone to rest his feet. He should be familiar with it, so he told little Carl quickly.
I'm going, KBA is so early.
Little Carl is very surprised, this company will also be the top printing machinery giant in the future.
"In this way, Uncle, you arrange contact with them. Venice, Milan, Bologna, Turin, Genoa, Florence and Parma, as well as Prague, Budapest, Novi Sad. I want 10 sets first."
For this amount, the price should be negotiable in the discount. Little Carl's brain is running at a high speed. He feels that the cooling effect of the fan in his brain is not good, and he is sweating. It is spring, and he is in a mountain with a certain altitude. .
"Little Carl, what are you doing?"
Princess Mary didn't understand what he meant, but she was curious.
"First, I have to tinker with printing in northern Italy, and I plan to monopolize printing in these places later; Test the water."
"I still don't understand what you mean." Old Carl, who turned into a curious baby, continued to question
"Uncle, aunt, I understand very well. I can't control public opinion, but I can understand public opinion. Besides, I can also print brochures without book numbers, as long as the price is high."
"Like?" Ludovica also came over, she asked.
"For example, if someone wants to read the black history of Sardinia, I can print it, someone wants to read the black history of Britain, France, and the Italian aristocrats who fought against Austria, they can read any black history."
"What about one without a black history?"
Cousin Albertine held her son in her arms and came over to ask.
"Any larger family has a dark history, as long as it existed."
Ludovica already understood what little Carl meant, and she introduced it to her niece, who was one year younger than her.
"What about the dark history of our family?"
Albertine asked reluctantly.
"If you are against our Habsburg family, then you can't run away and expose your family. However, it is not appropriate for you to marry the eldest princess of our Habsburg family, and then against our family... ·"
Ludovica felt that little Carl spoke a little threatening, although he couldn't see it on his face, but that was the feeling.
"...The Austrian of our Habsburg family is strong, and you are the royal relatives of the powerful empire. When our family declines, you are even worse off. So as reliable relatives, we naturally have to help each other."
Although he doesn't seem to be smiling, Albertine feels that this cousin is right, and the more he talks, the more he looks like a big devil, an underage big devil.
Little Carl knew that Napoleon III liked this trick. He printed booklets at a high price, and the effect was much better.
However, he used it in reverse, sending everyone his white history, coloring his history, beautifying himself, doing bundling sales with his uncle, and making use of Napoleon's beautiful image in the hearts of the French people to make a fuss.
So, let's not talk about anything else, you should be able to make money by doing printing. Official prints with ISBNs can make money, and booklets without ISBNs can make even more money.
It can give early warning and even arrest those who oppose my Austria and attack my Habsburg family.
Whoever prints anti-Austria and anti-Habsburg pamphlets here will press it directly. Of course, they secretly inform the police and then press it down.
"This is not a small sum of money, how can you have so much money?"
When old Carl thought of implementing a printing factory, he quickly considered the most practical issue, money.
"Uncle, I can handle money matters. There are two methods. One is to advance the family's annuity for ten years, which is more than enough. The other is that you lend me the interest at twice the bank's rate. I will use the ten-year annuity to do it. mortgage."
Actually, they didn't know that little Carl was going to make a fortune in the London market.
Before coming out with Uncle Carl, he had arranged for someone to go to England with a huge sum of money through some not-so-bright means.
If these relatives and friends lend him money, he can refill some ammunition and make more money in London.
Now that opium stocks are only a fraction of the price, he's here to take a dip. In April, the British Parliament passed the resolution to take military action, which was a wave of rebound, throw throw throw throw. Then fall again, and you can buy the bottom again.
In June, the British army blocked the Pearl River. In July, the British army captured Dinghai. In August, the British army approached Tianjin. At the end of August, Costin had to agree to negotiate. The opium stocks reached the top and were thrown.
At the negotiating table, Haidong Qingsao was operating, delaying time, preparing to recover Dinghai. Opium stocks fell again and again, and by the end of the year, they could buy the bottom. When Britain and Costin fought again at the beginning of 1841, it was another small peak for opium stocks, and another round was thrown.
In short, this wave of the Opium War can eat him into a big fat man.
Through this "trade war", personal assets will increase by more than 30 times. If you can borrow some money, then there is no problem with the increase of more than 100 times.
At that time, if you buy a printing machine, you can also use the mortgage loan to speculate on opium stocks.
What if I have more money? Opium is grown in southern Italy, and now the hospital relies on it for anesthesia, and it also depends on it. The demand for opium in Europe is really huge, far exceeding that of Costin.
What if I have more money? Maria Anna and other aunts' assimilation plans, how can they afford it without money? Where can you expect the Habsburg family to have enough money?
In 1841 and 1842 it was still possible to make some money from opium stocks.
However, London stockholders, including opium stocks, have been educated several times. They are relatively stable, and leeks are not so easy to cut. Of course, it is no problem to grasp the rhythm of buying low and selling high, and earning three or five times.
Not only opium stocks, but all East India Company stocks and Costin-related stocks can go in and stir and make some pocket money.
Back on the Apennine Mountains, this place where young and old rested.
"Why do I feel like you're a scammer, trying to cheat some of our old guys out of money."
The old military **** stretched his legs, and his comfortable voice became much brighter. He made fun of little Carl.
"Uncle, to be honest, I'm taking you to make money, twice the bank interest. Besides, I'm not using it to eat, drink, prostitute and gamble, but use it on these machines. Even if there is a problem, the machine will be sold. I can return the book to seven, seven, eight, eight."
"Uncle Carl, why do I think this guy is credible. Although I know that he is doing bad things, I just think he is credible. You don't think it's strange."
Princess Mary moved closer to Old Carl and said softly.
"Dad, I don't know what's going on. I also think little Carl is credible. Is this a ghost?"
Ludovica was also brainwashed by little Carl, and she also knew that she had been brainwashed. Knowing that he has been brainwashed is quite powerful. Most of the guys who have been brainwashed think that the things he has brainwashed are his voluntary choices.
"Mom, take it easy. I don't feel the same as you. I think my cousin is the great devil, or Satan, tempting us to sin."
Albertine softly advised Princess Mary that she felt that except for herself and her son, everyone else was a lunatic. Fortunately, it was noon. Fortunately, her servant and Uncle Carl's guard were still there, otherwise he would think there was a ghost here. .
Actually, he didn't know that his cousin still had many bad ideas.
London made money and opened factories in Milan, Verona, Parma, Modena, and Pavia, squeezing the living space of the Sardinian kingdom, especially Turin.
At least meet the needs of the local people, so that there is no need to use Turin products.
London has made money, Venice, Trieste, and Livorno, the shipyard belonging to the little Carl can be started~www.wuxiaspot.com~ especially the shipyard in Livorno, which can squeeze the Kingdom of Sardinia Belonging to the Genoa space.
The incorporation of Genoa into the Kingdom of Sardinia was stipulated by the Congress of Vienna. The Kingdom of Sardinia is also the largest increase in strength among the kingdoms defeated by Napoleon, because the Republic of Genoa is much richer than the original Kingdom of Sardinia.
Of course, factories should be set up in Florence, Lucca, and Pisa to squeeze space in Rome. At the same time, these industries, combined with the port advantages of Livorno, can squeeze Genoa and Naples, such as selling to Turkey and Spain.
In domestic sales, we do not seek to outperform them, we first seek local self-sufficiency, and try to use less products from the Sardinian kingdom. In this way, the comprehensive strength of the Sardinian Kingdom and the most direct spiritual vitality can be reduced.
After this operation, if Venice, Milan, Bologna, Florence and other places are safe, it will be possible for the Sardinian Kingdom to have no sunny days in the future.
Not to mention all the factories, if the printing presses are installed in several node cities or central cities in northern Italy, the kingdom of Sardinia will be sunny and cloudy.
Because, little Carl can print the Austrian language learning materials and the Austrian stories in Italian in the local area, so that the Kingdom of Sardinia will be cloudy and cloudy.
If they print a little more of their dark history - the rulers of Milan and Venice will pay to do this, then the Kingdom of Sardinia will turn into a light rain.
If they printed a little more of their "untested history" - that little Carl would have paid to do it first, that would have been much more appealing than the real thing - Italians would have paid to know these wonderful stories, and little Carl would have been able to. Make some money, and the Kingdom of Sardinia will be pouring rain.
Modern thinking may not be better than them in terms of details, but the general direction should far exceed that of the nobles and royal families at this time, not to mention the commoners and businessmen.
