Chapter 741： Forcibly grab

In a sense, civil strife in France delayed the outbreak of the Austrian navy.

The former Dreadnought is only a transitional product, and its economic life is very short. The glory of the original Dreadnought is only ten years.

Before the warships are retired, they are already behind the times, which is very uneconomical.

Knowing that this warship is not cost-effective, Franz still has to build it, and it needs to be built on a large scale.

Before Dreadnought was born, the former Dreadnought battleships were still very powerful, at least surpassing all warships on the sea today.

As long as Austria is built on a large scale, Britain and France must follow suit. Because of sea power, they must also build more warships.

If you lose money, as long as your competitors lose more, Franz doesn't mind letting the money-losing game continue.

However, this time when he cracked down on France, he underestimated the revolutionary enthusiasm of the French people, and his hands trembled a bit. He accidentally started to weigh a little bit, which made the French government almost die.

In this context, even if the French want to follow suit, they are allowed to play!

As a last resort, Franz can only slow down the pace of naval expansion and wait for the French government to stabilize the situation before continuing this losing game.

The French have no need to worry about their financial resources, at least in the short term. Although the losses were heavy in this crisis, not too much wealth was flowing out.

The most severely impacted are industry and manufacturing. This part of the industry accounts for slightly more than one tenth of the overall French economy, and the impact of other industries is relatively low.

The losses caused by this shock are similar to the losses of the French in the Franco-Prussian War.

At present, the mass of the French Empire can be much larger than the original time and space, and it is supported by overseas colonies. It is not difficult to restore the economy.

Looks like a lack of money, that is the majority of wealth is concentrated in the hands of a few people. In particular, those consortia collaborating with international capital are making a lot of money.

Sometimes too much money is also an annoyance. At the same time that domestic horses are racing, the consortium needs more investment channels. Loan loan sharks are definitely the favorite of financial leaders.

The French government is undoubtedly the best customer. The repayment ability is a small problem. The interest of the consortium to lend to the government is not interest income. What everyone needs is to strengthen its influence on the government through financial means.

"Holding people's hands is short and eating people's mouths are soft." It is a common practice for capitalists to influence governments through debt.

With such a big mess in the country, France's fiscal revenue this year is almost cut, and the Paris government has no shortage of money, which is the most true portrayal.

If you owe more money, the government will gradually become dependent on the consortium, and even in the end, it will be inseparable from the support of the consortium.

At that time, when the government formulated policies, there was inevitably a certain tendency.

Judging from the current situation, the French economy will not be optimistic for a long time to come. If the government wants to stabilize the situation, it must increase employment and reduce unemployment.

Shipbuilding is not the best choice, but it is the most suitable choice. Not only can it stimulate domestic demand, but you don't have to worry about investing.

As long as the Olympics start, the Paris government will definitely follow up. The former Dreadnought is almost done, and the Dreadnought era can start again, and another wave of money burning games.

The only regret is that John Bull gave up the two strong standards early, otherwise the arms race could drag them to death.

Without the two strong standards, the British target is only 65% ​​higher than the second. The Austrian navy's gross tonnage is 84% ​​of the French, which means that the British's shipbuilding plan was reduced from 1.84 to 1.65.

It seems that it has only decreased by 0.19, accounting for less than 11%. Based on the current cost of British shipbuilding, the problem of millions of pounds seems to put no pressure on the London government.

In fact, this is far from a problem of several million pounds. The most expensive thing in the Navy is not shipbuilding expenditure. The subsequent port construction, warship maintenance, and salaries of officers and men are far higher than the cost of shipbuilding.

The former is a few million at a time, while the latter is increasing by millions every year. Even the wealthy John Bull must be cautious on this issue.

Judging from the current situation, the first person who could not support it was the French.

This is determined by the comprehensive national strength. Their financial resources were originally at the bottom of the three countries, and they encountered so many bad things, and the gap between everyone's financial resources became even more disparate.

...

Townspeople are surrounding a notice in the small town of Mordo, West Prussia. From the gloomy faces of everyone, it can be seen that this is not good news.

After the Russian soldier who posted the notice walked away, a young man broke his silence by saying, "It's the fifth time to collect taxes in advance, and it will not make people live!"

After the Russians occupied West Prussia, in order to win the hearts of the people, the tsarist government announced the first reduction of taxes and abolished most of the taxes during the Prussian period.

There is no doubt that this policy ended in failure. The quality of a policy is not in the policy itself. The most important thing is to look at the implementation.

With the poor military discipline of the Russian army, no matter how good the policy is, they can't stand them. Under the trend of hatred, the local people still support the Berlin government more.

The endless stream of guerrillas eventually obliterated the patience of the Tsarist government.

After the war, the Russians abandoned their plans to win over the local population and launched the Tsarist model.

In less than a year, the Russians raised taxes in West Prussia to 1886.

If you don't have the money to pay taxes, you can use the land to pay off the debt. This is true of all newly occupied areas, not just the West Prussia area.

It was the aristocracy divided by the Tsarist government that caused all this. The clandestine given by the Czar is essentially just a name, and having a land is not the same as having land.

The land on the noble land was originally owned. According to the sacred and inviolable law of private property, this is private finance, and no one has the power to deprive it at will.

Nobles want to turn the fiefdom into their own industry, they also need to find a way to seize it from the original owner.

After the reform of Alexander II, the powers of local governments and nobles were weakened to a certain extent.

Changes in tax rates and new taxes must be reported to the central government for approval.

Raising tax rates and increasing tax types is easy. The Tsarist government is short of money. As long as the local government can collect it and not mess up, then no problem.

The trouble is that it will be difficult to change back in the future. Everyone regards these lands as their own property. If they do not return, they will have to pay more taxes. Naturally, everyone is unwilling.

In this context, the traditional mode of operation of "early collection of taxes" has given new glory to the newly occupied territories.

An old man in a Chinese suit, who looked very extraordinary, sighed, and said sadly: "It's really impossible, just hand over the land!

The Russians came at the land, this is just the beginning.

Even if I collected the money to pay the 1886 tax, and the next I tax of 1887, they would not give up if they did not achieve their goals.

No matter how big a family business is, it won't be able to withstand such frustrations. It's too late to let go now, so that when the land is not preserved, huge debts are owed. "

Having said that, the old man turned and left without giving everyone a chance to debate.

In similar words, he has said more than once, but everyone always has the good fortune to imagine that he can keep the land.
