Holy Roman Empire

After the wedding celebration, Franz became busier. So many guests came over, how could he not entertain as a host?

Banquets, banquets, or banquets, these days Franz welcomes the banquet to the imagination. There is no way, etiquette cannot be less.

Several younger brothers and a group of grand-princes of the Habsburg family have become coolies, but these people seem to enjoy it, leaving Franz speechless.

Under the shock of the good news of Franz's wedding, the news that the Vienna government's acquisition of gold was blocked has been masked. In the eyes of ordinary people, the emperor's wedding is more worthy of attention, and the acquisition of gold is blocked, and only professionals are paying attention.

It took more than a month to live away all the guests, and during that period, I made some promises, and Franz himself did not remember. It doesn't matter, there is a dedicated staff record.

When these kings come to attend the wedding in person, it is certainly impossible to simply leave relatives. Otherwise, the traffic is inconvenient and there are many relatives of the aristocracy. Relatives have been married all year round. Are they still busy?

Franz is not ready to make the wind and rain on the European continent, naturally it is necessary to have a good relationship with everyone.

Don't look at the power of these small countries, and they don't have much right to speak, but because of this, everyone can be assured to be friends!

As an emperor who admired pacifism, Franz's favorite thing is that everyone is a good friend. It is good to fight and kill what is not good.

Europe is too peaceful, but the world is not very peaceful. The British and French who are idle have begun to engage in things in the world.

In 1852, Lambert, the acting commander of the East India Company, paid attention to Myanmar, extorted 100,000 pounds from the Burmese king, and issued a war envoy for the reason that the chief executive of Burma was not receiving him.

With such a lame excuse, Franz had nothing to say. Whether they are willing to receive or not is the freedom of others. The villain was approaching the door, and it was normal to not want to receive it.

However, in this era, the British pursued hegemony in the East, and even British diplomat Da Hexuan declared openly: "Nowhere in the East can we be shut out."

The king of Burma had good luck. The Near East War broke out suddenly, the energy of the London government was concentrated on the European continent, and the expansion of overseas colonial activities inevitably contracted.

After losing a sum of money, the Myanmar government went through a crisis.

It is a pity that the Near East War did not continue, and the decaying Burmese government did not seize this opportunity to carry out a rich country and strong soldiers.

Now that the Englishman who has been idle has come to the door again, this time nothing has attracted the attention of the London government, so an unsuspecting war broke out.

The war is still going on, and British diplomat Da Heji has declared openly that Myanmar is a colony of the British Empire.

This outrageous approach directly refreshed Franz's three views and made him re-understand what colonialism was.

In the Pacific, Britain and France have also waged fierce competition. In general, the British have taken advantage, and the French have gained.

Looking at the British and French horse racing enclosures, Franz has only envy, and colonizing the Pacific region is still very challenging for Austria.

The axiom is always within the range of the artillery. Austrian artillery can not shoot that far, and it is easy to be taught to run.

The Netherlands and Portugal are examples in this regard. As pioneers of the colonial movement, at this time they had to be cautious in the face of British and French competition.

Of course, it is also indispensable to **** food. In the competition between Britain, France and Netherlands, the Dutch won the rich Indonesian region.

Of course, this has international political relations. Most of the Dutch still have first-mover advantages in Indonesia, and they have been operating for a longer time. They have an advantage over British and French colonial forces in the local area.

If the Dutch do not have the strength locally, no matter how they operate diplomatically, Britain and France will not be able to abandon the rich Indonesian region. No matter whether it is spices or various minerals, we cannot give up.

Now is the climax of dividing up the colonies. There are still a lot of borderless places in the world. Although everyone's competition is fierce, it is not as cruel as the end of the 19th century.

Austria has not joined this wave of division, and the government's main energy is still focused on currency reform. At most, African colonies are slowly expanding outward.

This is a small problem. The eyes of all countries are overseas. The African continent with poisonous beasts has not yet attracted everyone's attention. Naturally, Austria ’s small movements have gone unnoticed.

Chancellor of the Exchequer Carl angrily said: "Your Majesty, the sudden drop in the price of gold, the London stock market triggered a violent turmoil, the British consortium began to harvest, we can be regarded as being caught in the pond.

From the logic of whoever makes the profit, the Vienna government naturally thinks that the mastermind is the British consortium.

As for the small moves of the London government? Obviously, it is either being tricked or a real economic idiot.

The result is now clear that the Vienna government has to pay more for gold. But no matter how great this loss is, it is not as expensive as Britain itself.

Someone dare to use the tactics of killing one thousand and self-damaging eight hundred. Only the tactics of killing one thousand by self-damaging eighty are dared to use it.

After a stock market turmoil, London's stock market fell by 7%, and tens of millions of pounds of wealth were evaporated. The number of bankrupt enterprises increased, and the number of unemployed increased by more than 100,000.

At such a great price, the only winner was the British consortium. Not only has it won a large sum, it has also strengthened its monopoly position in the industry.

After big data analysis, Karl naturally thinks that Austria has been caught in the pond. The amount of gold purchases was lower than expected, the government's currency reform work was affected, and the losses paid were mainly in time.

Franz thought for a while and said, "Don't worry about them, as long as the price of gold returns to normal, we start to buy, and once the gold and silver exchange price rises more than 5%, we immediately close.

How much can be counted, after so much toss, we must be prepared for a protracted war. We buy it when the price of gold falls, and we sell it if it rises too much.

Now that the British dare to disrupt the gold market, let this market continue to chase and see who loses more in the end. "

Others don't know the danger of the blind rise of the currency, can Franz still not know? The price of gold went up, the value of the British pound naturally went up, and the cost of British industrial and commercial products rose accordingly.

Do not look at these points seems inconspicuous, in fact it means that the profits of British export trade fell. As capitalists' profits decrease, it is inevitable to reduce investment and increase the squeeze on the working class.

Two days a day is okay, and social conflicts have accumulated over time. Even though the great cause of British people can sustain and the economic development slows down, there is no way to solve it.

This problem is also easy to solve. Either wait for the Vienna government to complete the gold standard reform, then for its own benefit, it is natural to maintain the stability of the gold market.

Either let the Vienna government acquire enough gold, and naturally there is no need to continue to buy it.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Carl replied

After a pause, he added: "Your Majesty, the currency of the new Holy Roman Empire has been designed, and this is a sample for your review."

After receiving the new version of the Rhine Shield, the front is the icon of the Habsburg dynasty and the head of the emperor, and the back is a river and mountains, which can be regarded as an artistic map of the New Holy Roman Empire.

Beautiful or not, Franz didn't bother to care, the most important thing was political implication. As long as the meaning is reached, it doesn't matter if it is smelly, everyone will like it anyway.

After careful observation, Franz asked: "How is the currency value of the new version of the Rhein shield determined?"

When issuing currency, the value of the currency is often determined by market demand. If the currency value is too low, it means increasing the face value; if it is too high, it will not work, and it will be very inconvenient to exchange.

Carl replied: "After our initial research, three schemes were designed:

First, 1. Rheinland is equivalent to 3.66 grams of gold, about half of the pound;

Second, the Rhein Shield and the British Pound are equivalent to about 7.32 grams of gold;

Third, the Rhein Shield and the Franc are equivalent to about 0.29 grams of gold.

The main reason for this design is to facilitate settlement in international trade. Now our largest trading partners are Britain, France, and Russia. Russians use metal currencies directly, and there is no need for exchange. "

Indeed, this is the easiest way to determine it. The value of the pound sterling and franc is determined after the study of British and French. It is currently very well circulated in the market and is the two most mainstream currencies in the world today.

If the Vienna government is unconventional, and it is not impossible to run out to find a new currency, it just needs a lot of research and consumes precious time.

Franz thought for a while and said, "We are exactly the same as Britain and France. We don't know how the outside world will talk about it. We just use 3.66 grams.

It is more convenient for settlement and the numbers are more auspicious. The face value of the issue is tentatively set to 1 shield, 5 shields, 10 shields, 20 shields, 50 shields, and 100 shields. If it is needed later, it can continue to increase. "

Just so casually, Franz determined the value of the new currency.

The full name is the Rhine Shield of the Holy Roman Empire, referred to as "Rhine Shield" or "Aegis Shield", which is another movie.

The name also has its origins. The Rhine is the mother river in the German region. The most commonly used in the German region was the Rheinland issued by the Rheinland Federation.

In order to show the determination of the Vienna government to unify the German region, the Rhein Shield cannot be cancelled, or the nationalists in the German Federal Empire will be unhappy again.

In this era, the purchasing power of Aegis is still very strong. In addition to the shield, it naturally needs smaller currency units.

1 shield = 100 shillings = 10000 Groschen

With so many units, you can ensure that the cheapest goods can be paid in currency.
