Iron Dynasty

"Your Majesty is a learned man. As your Majesty said, our country is on the east coast of the Baltic Sea."

Schroeder glanced cautiously at the Emperor Da Yu who was wearing a dragon robe. This time he came with a heavy burden and didn't want to make any mistakes.

Sitting in the pavilion, Xiao Ming nodded slightly. The European intelligence that the Secret Guard received from the merchants was limited. After all, the news of this era was blocked. Even people in his own country sometimes could not understand some of the truth, and the news revealed to the Dutch. He has always remained skeptical, and has never trusted these former colonists 100%.

"The country of the messenger is really far away from the country of Da Yu. Rather than talking about it, the messenger might as well mark the situation in Europe on this map.”

Xiao Ming motioned to Qian Dafu, who placed a map of the world in front of Schroeder.

Looking at the detailed world map spreading out in front of him for a full two meters, Schroeder was stunned. There was also a world map in the Prussian palace.

But compared to the precision of this map, their map looks very old.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Schroeder did not refuse. In fact, he had never paid attention to this great Yu country before he came. In his opinion, this great Yu country would naturally not understand Prussia.

If it's a little longer, he won't even be able to reach the country of Dayu, only because Europeans have extended their tentacles here, they can find it smoothly.

Picking up the pen, Schroeder carefully marked the approximate area of ​​Prussia on the map, and soon he presented the map to Xiao Ming.

After taking over the map, Xiao Ming scanned his eyes and thought about it. The Dutch did not lie to him about matters in Prussia.

Generally speaking, the current European land hegemony is France, and the maritime hegemony is the United Kingdom. In addition, there are Portugal, Spain, Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Poland, Switzerland, Finland, Prussia and Austro-Hungary as well as the ununified empires. Italy.

Prussia in this period was still a very small country without the land of contemporary Germany, because the entire Germanic nation was still in a state of division.

Only the unification of these German states scattered in Central Europe can become the German Empire of later generations.

"It turns out that the territory of Prussia is only this big, but I heard that such a large piece of land is a Germanic country, right?" Xiao Ming asked.

Schroeder's expression changed. This question touched his heart. In fact, the unification of the German Federation is the dream of every Prussian.

It's just that the French are in their own interests, and it is impossible for them to unify these Germanic states. Because of this, their relationship with France has always been extremely bad.

"Your Majesty is right. This has always been our Prussian regret." Schroeder was ashamed, and he went on to say: "So this time the king sent me to the country of Da Yu, just to establish a good relationship with the country of Da Yu. Gain the power to unify the German Federation."

Xiao Ming smiled, "The actions of the British and French made us unable to believe you Europeans. Should I believe you with a few words?"

"Your Majesty, we understand that there is no interest in diplomacy. Two countries will not cooperate. The British and the French are enemies of your Majesty, but they are enemies of Prussia. The enemies of the enemy are friends. We Prussians are in Europe. Containing the French, the British and even the Russians, I think your country will save a lot of effort when capturing colonies." Schroeder's words hit the nail on the head.

The Prussian colony is negligible, so in his opinion, there is no essential contradiction between them and Dayu, while the British and French have huge colonies around Dayu.

Xiao Ming laughed, and he said: "It seems that you are a smart person. In that case, I won't go around with you. Just like the Dutch, Great Yu can also establish trade relations with you. The British and French are Europe’s cancer, with them, Europe will not be peaceful, and the world will not be peaceful, but there is one condition for establishing trade, and that is to use the currency of Great Yu.

When he learned of the arrival of the Prussians, he settled on the idea of ​​helping Prussia, because Prussia and France were natural enemies.

As long as Prussia is strong, the turbid waters of Europe can be stirred up. If Europe falls into civil strife, he can first sell arms, and secondly, he can seize the colonies and the resources of the world while Europe is busy with civil strife.

"Great Yu Country Currency Settlement?" Schroeder's eyes flickered. In the past, Europe needed silver to buy things from Great Chongqing, so Europe mines a large number of silver mines in the Americas in order to buy various commodities in Great Chongqing. Speaking of which, it means to settle in the currency of the country.

It's just that now that the Emperor of Dayu State says so, it is obvious that he can't use the rough way of trading before, but uses the real currency of Dayu State to buy things.

But they don’t have a bit of Yuguo currency, so he hesitated, he said: "It's just that we don't have a Yuguo currency, should this be settled like this?"

"This is not my concern. Maybe you can bring gold or silver to Great Yu Country to exchange for the Dragon Coin of Great Yu Country." Xiao Ming smiled.

Now whether it is Gaoli or Waguo, he has stretched out his financial tentacles. Now Gaoli and Waguo must use dragon coins to settle the purchase of Dayuguo goods.

He also had this requirement in the deal with the Netherlands, and now it is Prussia's turn.

The reason why he did this is simple and evil, and that is to make the Dragon Coin of Great Yu Country an international currency.

And the significance of international currency ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ This will mean that the currency of Great Chongqing has become a hard currency similar to gold and silver in the world.

Once he achieves this goal, Great Yu is like a contemporary American emperor, and an increase in interest rates can make the whole world nervous.

After all, the contemporary U.S. dollar is the world currency. For the U.S. emperor, the currency can serve its economy. Not only can it become the largest debtor country, it can also issue bonds to serve the economy. In previous economic crises, other countries have to pay for bonds issued by the United States.

Therefore, the contemporary U.S. imperialism has to maintain the dollar system even after its old life, because this is very important for the U.S. to maintain economic hegemony. Simply put, this can alleviate the economic decline of the U.S. imperialism, and the whole world must be the economic crisis of the U.S. imperialism. Pay the bill!

All in all, the national currency is an international currency for the country to benefit nothing.

Since it is so important to make the currency of Da Yu country an international currency, he naturally has to start layout now, otherwise once Westerners continue to develop in finance, they will realize this problem.

At that time, they are probably about to demolish the Taiwan of the country.
