The War Court and Lap Pillow, Austria’s Mandate of Heaven
Vol 2 Chapter 29: Aftermath (2)
In order to cope with the current run-on frenzy, Britain had to continue to increase exports in exchange for more coins.
But both France and the German states have raised trade barriers to prevent the British from dumping goods.
This weakened Britain's ability to consume cotton, and Britain's weakened ability to consume cotton exacerbated the economic crisis.
The largest cotton purchaser in the United States, Herman Brunn declared bankruptcy, and more companies engaged in cotton-related industries went bankrupt after that...
Looking at the snowflake-like bankruptcy report in front of him, Martin Van Buren sat in the carriage made of wood from the frigate USS Constitution, feeling ashamed.
Martin Van Buren didn't know where the road was headed, and to make matters worse, the Texans readily accepted their new identity as French.
The first battle of France's return to North America severely damaged the invincible U.S. military, instantly causing the red necks in Texas to fall in love and shout "Long live France!"
That's right, wherever the French army passed, red necks with American French can be seen everywhere. The scene of eating pots of pulp and welcoming the king's teacher made Texas Governor Gabriel feel like he had returned to the Napoleonic era.
When he followed General Napoleon through the Arc de Triomphe, the people welcomed them in the same way.
Later, the First Empire collapsed, and Gabriel was expelled by the royalists and cast aside by the people.
During the July Dynasty, Louis-Philippe restored him to his post, but Gabriel could only be a dog of the Orleans family, suppressing uprisings everywhere, and he was called a butcher and executioner.
This kind of treatment today is beyond Gabriel's dream, which makes Gabriel feel very good.
And this action of the red necks inadvertently saved their lives.
France's colonial policy is more cruel than that of the British. They not only want to plunder wealth and monopolize trade, but also implement a tough policy of national assimilation.
It is almost impossible to support agents like the British. The French often choose to completely eliminate all resistance forces.
This is related to the needs of the two countries. Britain is an island country with strong industrial strength and needs a vast place for dumping goods.
And France itself has a huge market, and at the same time can radiate its own power to the interior of the European continent. What it needs more is the origin of raw materials.
In order to better suppress the resistance forces in the colonies, the French colonial governors have very powerful powers.
The performance of the rednecks today moved Gabriel very much. He wanted to use Texas as a starting point to recast the glory of New France.
Governor Gabriel announced to the rednecks:
"All persons residing in the French colonies, irrespective of colour, are French nationals, entitled to all the rights enshrined in the Constitution. Any person born free or free in a French colony has (1) civil rights; (2) political rights established by law."
Moreover, in order to win people's hearts, Gabriel implemented a lower tax rate than that of France, and guaranteed that no businessman could monopolize the trade.
He kept the existing properties of those rednecks. If the rednecks wanted to continue to cultivate the land, they only had to pay a fee to the French colonial government.
Of course Gabriel also has his request, that is, all Texans must enroll their children in Catholic schools established in France to learn French.
There is nothing wrong with learning French, but the schools of the Catholic Church disgusted the red necks, and some red necks immediately suggested that they could pay for their own schools to learn French.
Governor Gabriel agreed to the rednecks' request, but all children had to attend school before 1840. This is the bottom line of Governor Gabriel, and the red necks know it well, so naturally they dare not violate it.
Governor Gabriel also asked the Texans to form the Texas Self-Defense Force. Officers were appointed by the governor himself, mainly volunteers. However, if the number was not enough, the colonial government had the right to recruit by force. People can use money to entrust others to serve on their behalf.
In fact, Governor Gabriel does not need to worry about this. The rednecks admire the powerful French army. After all, the Mexicans they could not defeat were held in the city by the US army, and the French army killed the US army as soon as they arrived. team.
Those 3,000 American captives are still working in the plantations instead of black slaves, which is the best proof.
When the Mexican army retreated, almost all blacks chose to give up their property to follow Tasan Anna's army.
So after the war, the slave owners in Texas couldn't find a slave at all.
Since the slave trade is prohibited in France, the slave owners hope to get their slaves back. After all, those slaves were originally their own property, and the US military has also promised it before, but now the US military is captured.
Governor Gabriel felt that this was a good opportunity. He recognized slavery in Texas and wrote to the cabinet saying that it was a Texan tradition and should be respected.
In fact, the French cabinet doesn't care about this at all. Slavery is only limited to Texas and not in the mainland, so those Catholic priests will have no objections.
Governor Gabriel wanted to get back those black slaves from Mexico, but Tasan Anna refused.
Governor Gabriel's messenger even found a black officer standing beside Tasan Anna, and finally had to flee back to Texas to tell Gabriel.
Ever since, Governor Gabriel distributed the American prisoners of war who had not paid the ransom to the slave owners in Texas as compensation for their loss of black slaves.
France's ambitions are more than just a Texas, and this is just the beginning.
For this reason, France decided to immigrate 100,000 people to Texas. Of course, even if another 200,000 people immigrated to the land of Texas, it would be enough.
This is why Governor Gabriel must form the Texas Self-Defense Force.
For France, one Texas is not enough, UU Kanshu www.uukanshu. com They want Louisiana, Wyoming, Oregon, Quebec, and the entire North America to submit to France.
This time the financial tsunami had little impact on the Austrian Empire.
On the contrary, it had a great impact on the international financiers in Austria, especially the Rothschild family. Due to the sharp drop in land prices in the United States, they had a lot of bad debts, and many loans were even lost.
Some people lose their money, while others make a lot of money.
This includes Archduke Karl, as the richest nobleman in Austria, he immediately used the funds in his hands to buy Austrian railway stocks without any hesitation after receiving Franz's letter.
Finally, at a price of 15 million florins, he bought the railway from Vienna to Venice.
It's just that Archduke Karl was not satisfied. Like Franz II, he considered himself an Italian, and he planned to repair the railway to Tuscany, so that it would be convenient for him to go home.
The butlers of Archduke Karl stopped his crazy behavior. After all, in the eyes of the butlers, it was no different from spending money for nothing, and it was not even as affordable as buying some artworks.
As for why it is the butlers, because there are half a million people working for the family of Grand Duke Karl, only one butler is really not enough.
1836, Christmas Eve.
Looking out of the window at Talia, who was wearing a fiery red fleece jacket, paired with a fiery red top and a short skirt, Franz really violated the doctrine for some reason.
Oh, and a pointed red hat. Thalia was carrying a bag at this time and climbed up Franz's window along the bed sheet.
"Here, Christmas present!"
Franz opened the bag and found that it contained the remaining funds for purchasing the railway, and he couldn't help but have black lines all over his head.
"This is my money!"
