Chapter 1547： Marin's suggestion

For a moment, Marin wanted to turn around and left. Anyway, he could not borrow money from the Fugger family, and he could also borrow money in Venice, south of Austria.

But after thinking about it carefully, Marin gave up. Because, he knew that even the Venetians didn't know what excessive demands would be made.

In these years, tycoons often make additional requests for loans to the nobility. In professional terms, this is a political loan. Moreover, the amount of 500,000 gold coins, the average person can not provide. No ordinary person would borrow such a large sum of money, only the big nobility would have such a large demand. Of course, the aristocratic territory is there, and they are not afraid that they owe money to run.

Moreover, nobles have the ability to mortgage. For example, he can mortgage the land under his name and mortgage the mine. For example, the Habsburg family mortgaged many mines to the Fugger family. The most famous ones are probably the large silver and copper mines of the Principality of Tyrol.

In addition, specially lending money to Maximilian I, the emperor took out several copper mines in the Tyrol area as collateral. do not know why,.

Unfortunately, Marin started importing cheap copper from India after opening up the Indian route. However, he imported cheap copper mainly for the purpose of casting cannons, and also took part in casting the copper coins of the North Sea country. Therefore, for the time being, it has not affected European copper prices.

However, before the Spanish also started learning Marin, importing cheap copper from India and using it to mint Malawi copper coins, the Fugger family panicked. After all, the size of the North Sea country is far from Spain. The Spanish imported cheap copper from India, which had a fatal effect on the Fugel family. and this,.

In fact, as the biggest creditor of Ulrich, Duke of Württemberg. The purpose is to force Marin to appear.

As the biggest creditor of the Duke Ulrich ,? It was Marin who embarrassed Marin when he heard the news that the Duke of Kohler and Ulrich were plotting human trafficking. Even if Marin does not come to him, he intends to send someone to come to take the initiative to provide loans. Of course, let Marin take the initiative to come to the door, which is more conducive to his condition ...

At this time, the copper mines of the Grand Duchy of Austria and Tyrol were almost eaten by the Fugger family. The Fugger family originally wanted to hoard copper mines and raise the price of copper to make a fortune. But the emergence of cheap copper in India. In order to stop the loss, he had to try his best, and this was the scene where he asked Marin ...

...

Malin had intended to ignore him, but then thought about it, multiple banker friends did no harm. Therefore, he asked in a more polite tone:

"If you have any questions, just ask. I can't answer without a definition!"

, And then humbly ask for advice:

"I would like to ask Grand Duke Marin, do you still need to continue to hold the copper and silver mines in the Fugel family? If not, how can I stop the loss?"

There are many mines hoarded by the Fugger family, not only silver mines and a few large copper mines. Originally, after the Habsburg family united Spain, Spain ’s Almaden mercury mine and Guadalcocal silver mine The Habsburgs who were "good at" mortgage mines were mortgaged to the Fugger family.

At its peak, around 1545, the Fugger family's fixed assets, mainly silver mines and copper mines, had a total value of 63 million Gouldon coins. Even the local tyrant Marin was jealous when he saw it.

However, the Fugger family is very unlucky. Because, the mines that the Habsburg family mortgaged to them eventually depreciated ...

In the middle and late 16th century, Spain discovered a large number of silver mines such as the Potosi silver mine in the Americas, which led to a surge in silver production and a decline in silver prices. The copper mine is even worse. With the outbreak of production of the Fa Yilun copper mine, the ratio of European copper prices to silver prices has soared from 12 to 1, to a low price of more than 40 to 1. After the introduction of cheaper Japanese copper in the Netherlands, the copper-silver price ratio increased to more than 80 to one. The hoarded mines of the Fugger family directly depreciated several times, causing the richest German family to decline directly. Of course, there is also the reason that Charles V's son Philip II worked out the lack of virtue of the bankruptcy of the Spanish Empire.

After thinking about it, Marin replied:

"Count Jacob, I can tell you in a responsible way-copper mines must never be hoarded again, and you can do it if you can. Europe has introduced the trend of cheap copper from India and even the Ming Empire in the east. You cannot organize the Spanish to introduce Indian Cheap copper. Once a large amount of cheap copper from India is poured in, copper prices plummeting is almost inevitable. "

"In addition, you should have heard that I own half of the shares of a large copper mine in Falun, Sweden. I can tell you that the copper mine is now producing up to 600 tons per year ... well, that is more than 1.32 million pounds. It seems that if I had spent a lot of copper to cast cannons and promoted copper coins in the Beihai country, it did not let those coppers flow into the market. It is estimated that copper prices have begun to fall now! "

, Said:

"I know that half of your copper has not flowed into the market ~ www.novelhall.com ~ but the copper ingots from Sweden's half of the shares have already flowed into the market. At present, the price of copper in Northern Europe has begun to fall. However, it has not yet It only affects Germany. So, I ’m in a hurry to ask you! ”

"Then quickly dispose of all copper mines, while the copper price has not yet fallen overall."

:

"I also want to deal with it, but the high-ranking merchants who are able to take orders are not fools. They have heard more or less of the news that the copper price may be falling and will not be happy to take orders. Even if they are willing to take orders, Will desperately bargain! "

What he said is not bad. The big merchants who can own millions of gold coins are all elites. In terms of business intelligence, they will never ignore it. It is impossible for them to know the news of the decline in the Nordic copper prices and the news that Spain introduced Indian copper minted copper coins. It's not difficult to trick them into being the pick-up player. And it's easy to cheat, and not so much money.

After thinking about it, Marin suggested:

"Well, you can dispose of those small copper mines to some merchants with less financial strength, and even allow several small chambers of commerce to buy them together. Those small merchants’ information is not so fast, and you will pretend to be in a hurry The capital looks like a 30% discount, there should be medium-sized merchants who are greedy, small and cheap ... As for the big copper mine, it can only be thrown into the hands ... "

:

"It can only be like this ... is it impossible for the price of copper to rise back?" It seems that he is not stubborn.

"Never possible!" Marin cut the railway. Then he revealed a bit of tone:

"So tell you, the price of silver and copper may fall to more than 1 to 80 in the future, think about it yourself ..."
