Rebirth of the Spanish Empire

Chapter 296: Western Development?

"Really? Do you have a solution?" Alfonso looked at Marie Theresa with joy and shook her shoulders vigorously and asked.

"Let go." He struggled to break free from Alfonso's hand and stared at him angrily. Seeing that his smile had faded and he was apologizing for mercy, he slowly slowed down. But he still didn't give him a good wink.

In response to this, Alfonso naturally took everything aside, acting like a good baby, making Mary, who was still angry, disappear immediately. He was really rare to see him like this. From this she also knew how important this matter was to Alfonso.

Can Alfonso not be nervous? This is naturally impossible. From the time he was born, he had the idea of ​​reviving Spain. Then as he grew up, when he saw other countries looking at Spain with tinted glasses, his heart became even more determined. , especially after thinking about what happened to my family later, the eldest sister was forced to die tragically in Italy, and the second sister Teresa also lived a melancholy life, and her own misfortunes were everywhere. First, the emerging power United States forcibly invaded Spain. The few colonies of Cuba and the Philippines were directly occupied by force. Why not grab other countries such as Britain and France? It is because of the decline of Spain. Spain has become a hot house in the eyes of Americans, and it can be used at any time. Bite and strengthen your own place. South America became independent with the support of the United States. In South America, Spain's complete failure made them, who were cautious at first and did not dare to show their claws, now unscrupulous. This is what Spain will face if it does not become stronger. Therefore, this also means that he needs to make Spain stronger to prevent himself from becoming the spokesperson of Spain's incompetence and incompetence again.

The subsequent outbreaks of revolutions in Spain have repeatedly impacted his position as king. Although he has been sitting on top of the king's position safely and unharmed by the powerful royalists, he has become increasingly embarrassed among the people. He has become less and less prestige in his eyes, and has even become a direct spokesperson for the decline of the country.

Of course, this result was not what he wanted, so Spain changed its original trajectory with his changes again and again. The current Spain is just like his time travel, and Spain has become like a rebirth in his hands. yiyang. Spain is like a partner who grew up with him, and their relationship is absolutely profound.

Watching it grow bit by bit every day, its status in the world is slowly but solidly growing. Alfonso was very excited.

That's how it exists. Now that he has encountered a problem, he naturally doesn't want to see that when he is ready to reap the fruits and completely change his destiny, he suddenly falls short. So, how [could] he not be nervous.

Theresa naturally understood his mood. Although I don’t know the many secrets in his heart. But compare the Spain I saw when I was a child with the Spain now. He could naturally tell how much energy his brother put into this. When she thought of her father's long-dead words about how he was nostalgic for time when the country had not recovered, she felt even more*.

He wasn't trying to show off, his whole body's aura suddenly changed. Then Alfonso realized before his eyes that Teresa had unknowingly changed into a strong woman.

She said: "During my nearly ten years of studying and teaching in the United States, I have been observing and studying the economic development of the United States, the most powerful country in the world today.

What makes them develop so fast? Not just me, many people in other countries around the world and people in the United States are analyzing step by step how the United States developed into what it is now. "Speaking of this, she paused for a moment, and then when she saw Alfonso listening carefully, she said again with a lot of joy in her heart:

"There are many conclusions that can be drawn. For example, the reason why the United States has developed so fast is naturally because of the existence of the United States, the oldest democratic country in the world, and its system has made the U.S. economy the biggest profiteer. This is a statement that most Americans are proud of, and although they don’t want to be, many experts agree with this view, including many people in the UK and the German Empire who hold this view.”

Seeing her looking over, Alfonso asked cooperatively: "What about you, is this the same for you?"

The boy's teachable eyes were cast on him, Theresa shook her head, and then said: "We'll talk about it later, why are you in such a hurry?"

As soon as these words came out, Alfonso felt as if he had suddenly eaten a bottle of old vinegar and felt very uncomfortable.

Seeing Alfonso deflated, Theresa's smile became even wider. Then he smiled proudly and said:

"In addition to this, many people say that the reason why the United States has achieved such development is mainly because of the rich resources in their country. Especially the rapid development of the west has given people in the east more space to develop. "

Alfonso interjected: "This statement is somewhat unjustifiable. After all, if it is calculated this way, then it will be easier for the countries in South America to develop. Although there were such financial difficulties in the past, since the [alliance] with Spain, the countries there have The government has begun to borrow money from the Spanish [International Development Bank] for development, and South America is more sparsely populated than the United States. Once developed, it will develop even more rapidly. But the German Empire did not In a place like this, the German Empire, which is such a small land, cannot eat the world’s second largest economic and military power.”

Teresa smiled "hehe" twice, and then said: "I knew you would say that, but they also have huge evidence."

"What evidence?" Alfonso asked curiously. He really couldn't think of any evidence that could make the world's second largest country such a sufficient evidence. How could there be such evidence? The more Alfonso looked like him, the more questions and doubts he expressed.

"Spain, their argument is indeed very convincing. Before Britain and Spain exchanged colonies, although Spain's economic development had been rapid, it was still at a lower position among the large economies in Europe. Even if Compared to Italy, it's actually not that big, and compared to the Austro-Hungarian Empire, it's even worse. However, after the two countries changed their colonies and became Spain's focus for development, Western Australia and New Zealand changed rapidly. Originally, The initial immigration of hundreds of thousands of people was suddenly full or even overloaded. Now Western Australia has turned Perth into the most popular city in the Far East in a short period of time. With the addition of Wellington As well as the entire New Zealand and the entire Spain, the nearly three million people there actually exceed Hungary or Austria in terms of total economic GDP. Even as people say, there, Spain has created another economy that is equivalent to Portugal. allies.

All in all, Spain has attracted the attention of the world. Although the German Empire is the second empire in the world, their prosperous economy is really disappointing. However, in terms of developing local economy, compared with Spain, Germany The empire is still far behind. And don't forget that Germany developed through the development of the military-industrial economy. Many people are guessing that they will definitely have a crisis. After all, there will be economic crises for decades and hundreds of years. The economies of Spain and Western Australia are developing soundly. Similar to the American economy, there is a civilian-oriented economy. Therefore, once the two countries were combined, and by analogy with Spain's development of Western Australia, the U.S. economy obviously developed driven by the development of the west. What do you say now? How about this theory?”

When Alfonso heard this question, he didn't know how to answer it for a moment. In later generations, China began to develop its western region. At that time, under the leadership of the state, the backwardness of the western region was indeed changed. But seriously speaking, there was also some chance. Because the eastern part has been developed, and there is nowhere to develop, it was only after that slogan was shouted for many years that it was actually implemented. Naturally, the economy there has also joined the fast lane of development.

But is this really how the United States developed? Alfonso disagreed.

"I don't agree with this statement. First of all, the development of a country is definitely not formed by solving one or two aspects. It is formed through all aspects, such as the capital of Americans and their wealth. People invest everywhere, and they are driven by interests to develop the west in large quantities. These are the development processes of the west. But don’t forget that apart from their west, the United States actually has other countries in the world. Huge investments, such as Argentina in South America, are said to account for more than a proportion of all foreign investment in Argentina. Therefore, this is definitely not absolute."

Alfonso took a breath, then looked at Teresa, "In addition to the development of the west, American financial capital is also one of the driving forces for the development of the United States. They charge interest for releasing goods, and New York and Chicago are connected to the present. The new city of Los Angeles, one line of these three cities serves the current economic structure of the United States. Los Angeles in the west covers its still relatively fragile territory. The same goes for others, so I think finance is the source of economic success in developing the United States. one"

finance? Alfonso suddenly woke up, and then he saw Teresa's smiling face. At this moment, he realized that it was not unreasonable for her to go to the United States.
