Reborn as a police officer in South Africa

Chapter 2524 Renaissance Bank

Brad's office still has some principles. Petrovich is different from Kurci, a foreigner. He is a real southern African and should be treated differently.

Petrovich's loyalty to the Communist International was not much. It was just a job, and his working ability was just that. Otherwise, the office in Cape Town would not have been half-dead for so many years. If such a good tool man was replaced, everything would be ruined.

Once someone with real ability comes over, it will be a thankless task.

Therefore, mediocrity has its benefits, and only those who stand out will be shot.

Kurci was a standout, active and active in France, but finally fell into the hands of Brad's office in southern Africa.

But there is no need for Kurci to feel too sad. The intelligence agencies of various countries have fallen into the hands of Brad. Southern Africa has long been a den for intelligence agencies of various countries. Otherwise, there would be no such description as a "hell's den".

Roque has no time to deal with such trivial matters now. He is concerned about the changes in the international situation. The international pattern in the next few decades will only depend on the past two years.

"The biggest threat to us now is not Germany, but Russia." De Gaulle flew to Pretoria three days ago for a last-ditch effort.

De Gaulle is still the president of the French coalition government, but his position is in jeopardy. France will hold a general election in July next year. De Gaulle has many opponents and has little hope of winning.

France's political landscape has always been a mess, and Ronald Capet, who is supported by southern Africa, is undoubtedly the most threatening one.

Georges Pidour, who represents the traditional forces in France, also has a large number of supporters in France.

Felix Gouin has the support of the Communist International. French capitalists do not have as many benefits and opportunities for workers as companies in southern Africa.

De Gaulle was a truly smart man and knew that the key to breaking the situation lay with Roque. Many heavyweights in southern Africa had expressed their support for Ronald Capet on different occasions. It seemed that the situation was over.

Actually not necessarily.

The more complicated the situation in France is, the more opportunities De Gaulle will have. Even if he cannot have as much power as Roque, at least he must be the one with the most weight.

As for the situation in France, de Gaulle was honestly not too worried.

So what if Ronald Capet is rich? It is impossible to distribute all his wealth equally to every French person. Even if Ronald Capet wins the election, given the situation in France, he will not be able to stay on stage for long.

That’s easy to say.

The same goes for Georges Pidour. He was an extreme opponent of the Communist International. Although he had a large number of supporters in France, he was destined not to be recognized by the working class, and naturally he would not get many votes.

In terms of votes purely, Felix Guin, who has the support of the Communist International, seems to have the greatest advantage.

But the vote is the most pointless thing. If Félix Gouin cannot bring a happy life to French workers, how many French workers will be willing to vote for Félix Gouin?

Therefore, based on this analysis, De Gaulle's chances are not small, because what he is best at is combining vertical and horizontal forces and making full use of every opportunity.

No, in order to win Roque's support, de Gaulle came to Pretoria in person.

This is de Gaulle's 11th visit to southern Africa in four years.

"The activity of the Communist International in Europe is unstoppable -" Roque did not explain why Southern Africa chose Reynard instead of De Gaulle.

There is nothing to explain. For southern Africa, Leonard is a better choice.

Compared to Leonard, De Gaulle was too individual.

It’s not that he has a bad personality, but France, under the leadership of de Gaulle, will certainly not succumb to any pressure, which is not a good thing for southern Africa.

If Reynard becomes French president, France may give up most of its military budget and place more of its defense pressure on the protection of southern Africa.

De Gaulle would certainly not do this.

Of course, Rock would not place all his hopes on Leonard.

De Gaulle had his own personality, but it was still within an acceptable range.

If Felix Gouin wins the election, it will be the worst outcome for southern Africa.

"The war has caused too much damage to France. Countless French people need relief this winter. Whether it is to continue fighting or to restore and rebuild, they need financial support-" The purpose of De Gaulle's visit to Pretoria this time is to think about

To get back the gold that belongs to the French government.

This is not the first time de Gaulle has had his eye on gold.

After the outbreak of the World War, the French government transferred 2,430 tons of gold overseas in batches, mostly in southern Africa, as collateral for Free France loans.

During the German occupation, prices in France skyrocketed, and the franc depreciated rapidly. It had long been decoupled from gold, and there was no guarantee of the value of the currency.

To restore the economy, we must first ensure the credibility of the currency, so De Gaulle wanted to return gold and rebuild the financial system.

"How much loan do you want this time?" Luo Ke was straightforward, saying it was all about money.

"It's not a question of money. Loans can only alleviate it. To fundamentally solve the problem, we must rebuild the financial system." De Gaulle expressed it very difficultly. He was really not good at this aspect.

Perhaps in order to establish a tough image, de Gaulle has always appeared in public as a soldier. Now de Gaulle is still wearing a military uniform.

Soldiers and bankers are two different groups. They are separated by a mountain. It is too late for De Gaulle to switch careers and study finance.

But when it comes to running a country, soldiers are really not as good as bankers.

"It's not easy to rebuild finance -" Rock actually doesn't understand much, he only knows how to make money.

It is enough that you can make money, and you are making money through industry, not through financial methods. There is still a difference between the two.

Using financial methods to make money is just like the American stock market tycoons. Every ten or eight years there is an economic crisis. It is really easy to buy high and sell low to successfully harvest leeks.

Roque does not encourage this way of making money, so he is not too concerned about stocks. The truly powerful large companies in southern Africa are not listed at all, such as Rand Bank, South Africa Company, etc., but Fawalt under Henry's name is listed.

Yes, but there aren’t many circulating shares, it’s just for fun.

"It is indeed not easy. Compared with those vampires, I would rather fight the Germans!" De Gaulle was still willing to tell the truth in front of Roque.

His thinking is actually a bit narrow-minded. Bankers are not vampires, but Hebrew loan sharks are.

In finance, money must flow to create value. Only then can money generate money, otherwise it will be a pool of stagnant water.

The French politician that de Gaulle really hated, his love for France was unquestionable, but because of his limited ability, he was unable to truly transform France, so he was very troubled.

"The war will eventually end, and peace is the theme." Rock persuaded in a subtle way, and you have to let go when it's time to let go.

From Roque's point of view, for de Gaulle, retreating bravely is not necessarily a bad thing.

Even if de Gaulle retreats, his contribution to France will be unparalleled.

In that mess in France, whoever comes to power is always in trouble. Even though Renard, Pidour, and Guin are all very active now, in fact they all have flaws. You will know when they actually get to that position. Really

When governing a country is just cooking.

If Roque were de Gaulle, he would give up politics now and focus all his energy on the army. Political power comes from the barrel of a gun. Compared with French politics, the army is relatively easy to control.

Whoever wants to be the president of France, Renard, Pidour, let him do it. De Gaulle will just take care of his affairs. When these people are all bruised and disheartened,

, De Gaulle came out again to clean up the mess.

The real boss is always the last one to appear.

Look at the rebels who were the first to rebel in history. They almost didn’t end well. Building walls high, hoarding food and slowly becoming king is the way to go.

It's not easy to ask for something, not to mention that the gold deposited in France in the Rand Bank is all mortgaged. If the gold is returned, what will happen if the French learn from the Russians and default on their debts?

This is where the role of professionals comes into play.

"It's still impossible to pay it back. The current French government is only a provisional government. Even if it needs to be paid back, it must be returned to the real French government. Let's wait for a few years." Ada refused, seeing that she meant she would never pay it back.

After entering the gate of Rand Bank, I still want to go back. I really think Rand Bank is a bank.

The Rand Bank under Ada's leadership was much darker than the Hebrews who only made loan sharks.

The loan sharks only want interest, but Ada wants both principal and interest.

This is of course only when facing outsiders.

Rand Bank is still very conscientious in its treatment of southern Africans.

"How many years will it take?" Roque was curious. Ada was always kind and kind in front of him, and she never showed her teeth or claws.

"I mean we'll discuss it in a few years. Don't you think we can just pay it back in a few years-" Ada was so cruel that she didn't even give her a chance to discuss it.

That’s right. In a few years, it’s hard to say who will make the decision in France. It’s indeed too early to discuss this issue now.

"What if the French government pays off the loan?" Roque asked, and then burst into laughter.

I don’t know how many years it will take to pay it off. Anyway, by then Roque, Ada, and de Gaulle will probably not see that day.

"Haha, interest accrues on interest, and new debts are added before the old debts are paid off. How can it be repaid?" Ada is the vampire that de Gaulle said.

Luo Ke was amazed, it was so easy for people to make money.

Ada doesn't just suck blood, on the contrary, she is also very capable of creating opportunities.

The Ministry of Finance of Southern Africa has recently joined forces with Rand Bank and Imperial Bank to prepare for the establishment of the International Bank for Reconstruction.

The war is about to end, and recovery and reconstruction are about to become the mainstay.

Not only is France short of money, Italy, Spain, Greece, even the United Kingdom, and Russia are short of money. There are only two rich countries in the world, one is Southern Africa and the other is the United States. If Southern Africa does not take action, then the Americans will take the lead.

How is this possible? So this work has been started since June and July last year.

The International Bank for Reconstruction, just by looking at its name, you can tell how big this bank is. The Rand Bank and the Imperial Bank jointly invested 10 billion rand. It seems to be extremely powerful, but in fact, it is only a drop in the bucket when it is invested in the recovery and reconstruction of the entire world.

Of course, the accounts are not calculated this way. The biggest bug of banks is that they can use capital to mobilize capital. With 10 billion in capital, they can do 11 trillion in business. The key is to gain the trust of other countries.

Trust is the key.

Why does France store gold in southern Africa?

It’s not because Southern Africa promised to repay the French in full when they need it.

The Russians refused to repay the debt at the beginning, and the credibility of the entire country was destroyed. The League of Nations was not allowed to enter.

Therefore, Russia's rejection by mainstream society is really not discrimination at the national level, but purely self-inflicted.

If the country borrows money and refuses to pay it back, then who will dare to deal with the Russians in the future?

So as long as France pays back the money, Southern Africa will definitely return the gold to the French. This is the country’s credibility and cannot be destroyed easily——

No, it’s not that it can’t be done easily, it’s that it absolutely can’t. It takes a long time to build trust, but it’s too easy to destroy it.

So if some countries say they want to tear up the agreement, then they will tear up the agreement and wait a few years to see what happens.

The purpose of the Renaissance Bank is not only to promote recovery and reconstruction, but also to engage in investment and development business. For example, if a country discovers a mine but does not have the capital to develop it, then the Renaissance Bank can invest.

Ada came to Roque, and her main task was to report on the progress of the establishment of the Renaissance Bank.

"Anyone can lend money, but never lend money to Indians -" Luo Ke, an old foreign trader, has blood and tears experience on this issue.

It’s an old question, the same 1.4 billion people, why can’t India develop?

Onlookers are not qualified to answer this question. Veteran foreign traders come on stage, and all of them have a history of blood and tears. The most unreliable country in the world is not Russia, but India.

Others don't know, but when Rock did business with the Indians, he paid the full price first, and it was FOB price, and he could find a way to transport it away, whatever he liked.

Customers from other countries can place an order by paying a 30% to 50% advance payment.

Indians must pay in full, otherwise they must be prepared to lose money.

"If India wants a loan, the United Kingdom must come forward -" Ada had not considered this issue at all.

That's right, India is not a country yet, it is just a British colony, and the colonial government is not even qualified for loans.

The colonial government is extremely unstable. You never know when the colonial rule will collapse. Who will you turn to for money then?

Therefore, if India wants to get a loan from the Renaissance Bank, it must come from the United Kingdom. The United Kingdom is relatively reputable. After all, it has a strong foundation and can still be defeated for a few years.

He won't be defeated for many years.

Now that the world war has begun, the pound's international currency status is as precarious as de Gaulle's status in France.

Not only the rand, but the US dollar is also eyeing the pound.

The federal government of Southern Africa took the lead in establishing the Bank for Reconstruction, which is also poaching the pound.

They already borrowed money in rands, so why bother using pounds sterling?
