Chapter 181： War loan

The Greeks were pulled over, and Franz didn't take it seriously. The protagonist of the Near East War was the Russians. Austria only played soy sauce, and lost at most a few stones to the Ottoman Empire that fell.

Even if the two countries have declared war, in fact, there is a lot of room for maneuver between Austria and Austria. They have just taken over their two dependent nations, and the conflict is still under control.

The decaying Sudanese government is actually very tolerable, but it has miscalculated its own strength before, and Austria needs this war again, and the two sides have come this far.

Whether or not to strangle the Ottoman Empire, Franz is indifferent. With the support of Britain and France, the Ottoman Empire can keep the Asia Minor Peninsula.

As for the Greeks, to be honest Franz didn't expect anything from them.

The geographical location determines that they are the best choice to hold the British thighs; the lack of strength also determines that the Ottomans need only one hand to press them.

If it is just joining the alliance to declare war against the Ottoman Empire, then for political needs, the responsible Franz and Nicholas I will certainly pull them.

Even if they lose on the battlefield, post-war negotiations will not hurt them.

Sneaking into the market, this is not an ally. It is okay to win. Franz is creditworthy. The Austrian government will definitely support their demands. Most Russians will honor their promises.

Cry yourself if you lose. They are all armed by civilians. They have nothing to do with the Greek government and naturally have nothing to do with Austria and Russia. Franz remembered that the Greeks had lost in history, and their face was swollen and bruised by the Ottoman Empire.

Compared with the Greeks, Montenegro, or Montenegro, another small Balkan country, has a much stronger stance.

Originally, Bishop Danilo wanted to be neutral. Montenegro, a small country with a population of less than 200,000, waged three wars against the Ottoman Empire in 1821, 1829, and 1835, in order to obtain the estuary of the south. It all ended in failure and has just been restored. vitality.

Bishop Danilo was a peaceful faction. Montenegro was surrounded by the Ottoman Empire. He was afraid that he would overturn before he could wait for reinforcements.

Unfortunately, the pro-Russian Montenegrin people did not agree. Militant is characteristic of all Balkan countries, and Montenegro is the best among them.

The Ottoman Empire has ruled the Balkans for hundreds of years and still has not been able to conquer the Grand Duchy of Montenegro, and the Sudanese government has long been tired of it.

Therefore, a proposal was made to the Montenegrin government, so long as they were willing to cease hostilities with the Ottoman Empire and recognize the sovereignty of the Ottoman Empire, they would give Montenegro a part of the estuary of Skutai, the Adriatic Sea and Herzegovina. .

The hard-hearted people of Montenegro rejected this temptation decisively. They would rather lay down these sites with their own hands than submit to the Ottoman Empire.

The power of hatred has penetrated into the bone marrow of every Montenegro citizen. Now the opportunity has come. The Russians and Austria declared war on the Ottoman Empire at the same time. How could they be absent?

We must know that in the Crimean War, the people of Montenegro, who were pro-Russian, had to participate in the war.

But Bishop Danilo saw the situation clearly. He believed that the Russians were too far away, and once the war broke out, Montenegro was isolated and neutral, choosing neutral.

For this reason, Bishop Danilo was almost overthrown.

Don't worry about isolation now, they are not far from the Dalmatian provinces of Austria, which was rejected by Bishop Danilo.

In order to be able to get married, Bishop Danilo compromised. He agreed to support the war, but in return he gave up the position of bishop to others and crowned himself "the Grand Duke of Montenegro and Burda."

As the traditional younger brother of the Russians, the Grand Duchy of Montenegro is still well taken care of, Russia comes to communicate with Austria, and Austria provides them with assistance.

Franz naturally will not reject this small request from the Russians, not just weapons and equipment and strategic materials, as long as he is willing to give money to discuss everything.

At this time, the superiority of the state-owned enterprises was manifested. With the government's administrative order, the enterprises began to produce strategic materials in advance.

Considering the payment capacity of the Grand Duchy of Montenegro, Franz also provided the loan service very intimately, which solved the urgent needs of customers.

There is no other way to provide loan services. Not to mention the Principality of Montenegro, even the Russians have limited ability to pay.

Now that they have not completed internal reforms, the wealth that a feudal dynasty can gather is simply not comparable to capitalist countries.

The Tsarist government did not expect that Britain and France would intervene. The sea route is now closed, and the strategic supplies hoarded along the Ukrainian coast can only be transported by land. This obviously cannot guarantee the needs of the frontline army, and can only be purchased from Austria.

The military expenditure of the labor division expedition to the Balkans can be much higher than the historical cost of fighting in the Crimea. Due to the corruption of the Tsarist government, even if the Austrian government did not drive up prices, prices are now rising.

Franz can't stop Russian bureaucrats from getting rich?

In the end, of course, hello, hello, everyone. The only thing that hurts is the Russian central finances. Anyway, their big business can stand up to it, and they have no money and can not afford a loan.

The Austrian government is very willing to take this business. These loans are targeted and can only buy Austrian goods without having to take out real money. Anyway, loans to Russians are better than letting Russians default on payments.

Political loans have never been simple. There are additional terms of business and trade. Even if the Russian government does not qualify for a loan, the Austrian government will not lose money.

Only the central bank has the strength to undertake this business in Austria. Otherwise, the loans of hundreds of millions of dongs will not be available, even if the domestic major commercial banks add up.

With the order of Franz, the Central Bank of Austria started the money printing machine and made the first payment in the shortest time.

The Russians borrowed 100 million dongs, and the Principality of Montenegro borrowed 5 million dongs. The Greeks' loan request was rejected by Franz.

The reason is that Austria is unable to provide them with material assistance, does not border on land, and expects to deliver goods by sea. When the British do not exist?

Take real money? This obviously doesn't exist. Isn't the Austrian government a big deal? You can also count on the Greek government's finances to pay them back?

You know, since the establishment of the Greek Kingdom, their finances have been resistant to borrowing from the boss behind them. When did you see them paying off their debts?

After the borrowing with the Russians and Montenegro was completed, the money flowed into the Austrian market and stimulated Austria's economic development.

Anyway, now is the time of war. It is normal for prices to rise. As long as you do n’t play too much, there will be no major problems.

After the reunification of South Germany, the market currency capacity increased, and the problem of inflation was solved.

As long as it is not an outflow of funds, in the context of increased wealth creation in the society, additional currency issuance is also a normal operation and will not cause serious inflation.

As for the economic pain caused by the return of the market to normal after the war, aren't there still Russians who repay their debts? As long as real money flows in, all crises can be resolved.

Take advantage of this opportunity to make the economic ties between Austria and Russia closer, and use the benefits to strengthen the alliance between the two countries.

The French can influence the tsarist government by controlling Russian finance. Austria does not have the power to control Russian finance, but it can always be done with influence?

Franz was very conscientious. The loan interest to his allies was only 0.2%, and there were absolutely no unequal conditions.

It just promotes economic exchanges between the allies. Anyway, Britain and France have become enemies. Austria is not too much to grab their market?

At this time, Britain and France did not have the opportunity to protest. From the moment the navy blocked the door, they were the enemies of the Tsarist government.
