Vienna Palace

Franz asked in surprise: "France and Russia are moving closer?"

France and Russia will move closer, and Franz is not surprised. He was surprised that the two countries moved closer together too early.

The agricultural crisis is brewing, but it has not yet broken out. If you are in a hurry and go to hospital, you will not be in a panic until you are seriously ill.

It is still early. The French ranch plan has only one plan, and the British food self-sufficiency plan has not even determined the origin of the food.

Even if it will impact international food prices, it will have to wait for them to plant the food.

This kind of indispensable just-needed products is not the future market changes of futures and stocks.

Whether it is bad or good, the demand in the market is indispensable. Before the overcapacity of grain occurs, even if the international grain market is turbulent, there will be no major changes.

At least until the major grain exporting countries abandon the implementation of uniform grain sales prices, the international grain trading market will not change significantly.

Foreign Minister Weisenberg: "Your Majesty, the Tsarist Government is also forced.

Although after the outbreak of the agricultural crisis, everyone can still solve the problem by expanding domestic demand, but the Tsar government's debt pressure is too great.

The Russian Empire also suffered from a serious lack of foreign exchange. After losing its financial resources for food exports, their financial system would soon collapse.

The French were willing to let the Russians' grain enter their own market, and the tsarist government simply could not refuse it. "

There is no way, no matter how to open source and cut costs, the debt still has to be paid, and can only choose to pay foreign exchange or gold, the ruble is basically no one in the international currency market.

Every year, a large amount of foreign exchange is required to pay off debts. The Tsarist government naturally has to work hard to earn foreign exchange, or else it will fill a pit with a lot of gold.

Once the foreign exchange is insufficient, gold flows out of the country in large quantities, and the currency value of the ruble is finished. When a country ’s currency loses its credibility, the financial system is doomed.

The bitterness of this was experienced by the Tsarist government, and it can even be said to be experienced.

Every financial crash is accompanied by-government bankruptcy.

The seemingly effective method of delinquency is actually endless. It is enough to be isolated and excluded by the international community. The key is what to do with a mortgage?

Can't you rely on the debts of the Nordic Federation and Austria at the same time, refuse to perform the loan mortgage contract signed in advance, and fight the two countries to wipe out the debt?

Such a no-limit approach will naturally not be rejected by the tsarist government, and allies are always worthless in the face of interests. But the current problem is one enemy and two, that is really unbeatable!

In this era of weak meat and strong food, the winners on the battlefield can pay the bills, but have not heard that the losers can also pay the bills.

If you ca n’t afford it, you can only find ways to make money.

The French came up with tangible benefits, and even knowing that this might be a poisonous bait, the Tsarist government could not refuse.

Franz nodded and said slowly: "It seems that we all underestimated the French. Perhaps the Paris government's ranch plan is a pretext.

The French region itself is the largest grain producer in Western Europe. If it were not for the annexation of the Italian region, they would have no shortage of grain.

These farmers were the foundation of the Bonaparte dynasty, and as long as Napoleon IV was not mad, he would not harm the interests of this group of people.

It has been politically determined that the price of grain in France will be at a high level to protect the interests of the peasant class.

The French ranch plan can reduce dependence on outside food, but it does not mean that all must be self-sufficient.

Once all the grain is self-sufficient, driven by interest groups, the price of grain in France is destined to fall, and the interests of the peasant class are difficult to guarantee.

Only by leaving a certain gap and importing grain from overseas can we keep grain prices high and provide a reason that is acceptable to all parties.

Cooperating with the Russians may also be part of their plan in advance. Our laissez-faire has only accelerated the development of the situation.

Next, how is the Ministry of Foreign Affairs prepared to respond? "

The facts are in front of us. Whether the French are preparing in advance or making a move, the final situation will develop in the direction of France.

Without damaging the interests of domestic farmers, a large-scale farming plan will not only reduce foreign exchange losses, but also help promote the development of the domestic grain processing industry.

The development of the industrial revolution to the present, the mainstream economic sector is actually a few, namely: light industry led by the textile industry, agricultural product processing industry, and traditional heavy industry including shipbuilding, iron and steel metallurgy, mining.

Next is transportation, and finally the newly emerging power industry. As for the automobile and internal combustion engine industries, they are still infants and young children, and they account for a very small proportion in the social and economic volume.

France's foundation is still very thick, the industry chain is basically complete, the only regrettable lack of leading industries.

The British occupy the dominant position in the financial industry, textile industry and shipbuilding industry, and also occupy an important position in the mining and steel metallurgy industries.

Austria is the dominant position in the fields of agricultural products processing industry, power industry, transportation and other fields. It has also surpassed the British in the fields of mining and steel metallurgy with a slight advantage, becoming the industry leader.

The French are in tragedy. There is no one in the important industry who can resist the flag, which is quite mediocre.

Not to mention heavy industry, innate resources have determined that the French are difficult to make a difference in this field, and it can be regarded as very hard to be ranked third in the world.

The textile industry, which is the government's key development, was suspended by the British in international competition. It seems that the industry is very large. In fact, the total volume is not comparable to that of Austria, which is next door and unobtrusive.

The transportation industry in France has developed very well. It has been overhauling railways since Napoleon III, but unfortunately other industries have not kept up.

The capitalist investment is to consider the return. For a long time, the railway that has no hope of profitability will be ruthlessly abandoned even if it is repaired.

Frankly speaking, France's emerging industries are still developing very well, but unfortunately the limitations are too great.

For example: in the electric power industry, the French entered early. Unfortunately, the French lack coal and rely heavily on overseas imports. The high cost of power generation restricts the promotion of electricity.

It is difficult for the real economy to dominate a single company. Even if it cannot become an industry leader, it can also be very moisturizing as the industry's second.

Now it seems that the big farm plan is just for food self-sufficiency, it is enough to rely on farming.

In fact, because of the existence of tariff barriers, domestic agricultural product processing enterprises have an advantage in tax costs. As long as the grain production capacity goes up, these enterprises will develop.

While promoting the development of the domestic economy, it also hit competitors. It can be said that this large-scale farming plan is beneficial to France without harm.

Foreign Minister Weisenberg replied: "The French ranch plan is beyond our reach, and there is no way to destroy it for now.

However, they want to win over Russia, and they must not be allowed to complete successfully. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs is looking for a suitable intervention point to interrupt France and Russia from continuing to move closer together. "

Saying no fear, it must be fake.

A single France, or Russia, has obvious shortcomings, and Austria can still deal with it calmly. If the two form a group, the situation will change.

Franz didn't forget that there was a John Bull who was **** stick outside the strait. The original World War I was detonated only after John Bull joined the Allies.

In a sense, if there is no pitman or pit teammates, the Russians will not be able to jump on the street so quickly.

The material assistance was timely, the Tsarist government did not fall so early, the German Empire could not last so long, and there was nothing American did in World War I.

"This is difficult to achieve. The French are willing to open up the domestic market. That is tangible benefits. It is difficult for the tsarist government to refuse.

To prevent them from getting close, we must also pay a price, even if we add political influence, at least not lower than the French.

Unlike the French, they can toss about anything. If they succeed, they will make a lot of money. Failure will also cause us trouble.

A few more times, I'm afraid I can't stand it. In the long run, the French were not suppressed, and the Russian appetite was first raised.

Unless we can win with a single blow, it is very unfavorable for us to continue to be so entangled. "

The problem is here. The Frenchman is purely a messy shot. No matter the final success or failure, the result will not be worse than it is now.

In contrast, Austria cannot continue to play like this forever. Over time, this will create an illusion for the Russians that Austria cannot live without Russia.
