Chapter 803: British Temperament

"The Germans are catching up, the downward trend of the mark is temporarily easing, and we can move on to the next step. ”

The City of London, where there are many elegant clubs, the Hellfire Club also has a long history and the highest level of consumer service. However, for ordinary customers, these are "not for sale". If you are not referred by someone and pay a large amount of membership fees, you will not be able to enter these places to consume.

Of course, although the club provides services that are far beyond the average industry level, the value of entertainment services alone is certainly not as much as the membership fee of more than 200,000 pounds a year. Then it is clear that there must be other services at a higher premium price here.

And the core service and most valuable asset of this Hellfire Club is by no means the authentic works of Salvador DalΓ­ and Henri Matisse hanging on the wall, or the unsuccessful Miss World reserve waitresses.

Its greatest wealth comes from its short list of thirty members.

The Hellfire Club, which is usually known for its tranquility and elegance, adheres to the standard of no more than 10 customers at a time. In fact, it is rare for its customers to exceed 10 people, and you must know that the customers who can give 200,000 coffee drinks every year often do not have much leisure time to drink coffee.

However, in today's Hellfire Club, there are more than 20 members gathered at a time. Although the elegant gentlemen try not to behave too uneducated, it still inevitably makes the club a little more noisy.

"We have to make sure that the Germans have invested enough, and that only when the people who fell into the swamp are exhausted can we make sure that the people standing on the shore are not dragged into the water by their random struggles. ”

"In order to keep the exchange rate of the mark stable, the Bundesbank has invested two hundred billion dollars. Raising interest rates, raising discount rates, lowering foreign trade tax rates, they have used all the means at their disposal. ”

The beautiful waitress was uncharacteristically driven away at least twenty or thirty meters away. Even so, the gentlemen in the conversation still subconsciously lowered their voices and whispered in each other's ears: "Now it's time to release our trump card, we contacted the French, and the first batch of interest-free loans of 500 million dollars has reached the Russians." Next, we need to let the Germans re-understand the question of who was the victor in World War II. ”

"The French? How much do they know, are they reliable, why bring them in?"

"You know, this is the usual diplomatic strategy of our country. ”

......

"Prime Minister, NATO's emergency defense meeting is over. ”

In the German Chancellery, Kohl just put down the phone and excitedly announced the latest good news to his staff team.

With a wave of his hand, he stopped his own Minister of Defense from interrupting his declaration: "Gentlemen, it is a pleasure to tell you good news. Thanks to the concerted efforts of the Ministry of Finance, the Central Bank and the Economic Commission, the downward trend in foreign exchange has stopped. ”

"Oh, of course, this success is also inseparable from the coordination of our Ministry of Defense and NATO. Cole stretched out his hand to the Minister of Defense, who had just walked in: "Minister Nhleko, do you want to come to the coordination meeting and there is good news?"

"We activated the emergency response mechanism, so to speak. The emergency mobilization of NATO armed forces has been carried out, the Wehrmacht has canceled its weekend vacation, and American warplanes have already taken off from air bases to reconnoiter in the area of the Russian Baltic Sea exercises. ”

"At the same time, through the coordination of NATO, we have successfully persuaded Britain, France and other countries to determine the share of aid to Russia. The first batch of interest-free loans was borne by our country of 180 million, and the Russian side promised that as soon as this money arrived, the Baltic Fleet would immediately end the exercises. ”

"180 million, that's not a lot of money. ”

At this time, Cole completely forgot that when he negotiated aid to Russia at an international conference, even the share of one million US dollars, and all countries could bargain for a week or two.

The only lesson that humanity has learned from history is that humanity has not been able to learn from history.

In the words of our Mr. Hu's hometown, that is, remember to eat or not to fight, these politicians are a group of pigs.

"I still have a rich amount of money that interferes with the exchange rate, and I can temporarily advance this loan. ”

In the final analysis, the biggest reason for the current exchange rate crisis of the German mark is the Baltic Fleet off the coast of Germany. As long as there is a way to send this group of masters away, the value of the mark will soon be restored, and this is the way to cure it radically.

Cole is also a resolute figure, and immediately nodded and said, "Okay, then do it." The most important thing now is to stabilize Russia and not let them have desperate thoughts. ”

- Once Russia breaks the jar and breaks it, the first unlucky one will definitely be Germany.

At Kohl's order, the first interest-free loan for aid to Russia was quickly transferred from the pockets of European countries to Yeltsin's hands.

And the next trend of the international situation......

You must know that no country in the world will give in to blackmail negotiations, whether the police face hostage-taking criminals, or the military face terrorists with explosives strapped to their bodies, or even Chechen terrorists kidnap all the teachers and students of a school.

This is the absolutely correct way to dispose of it.

Because if there is a successful first successful example of a terrorist threat, the country will face an endless stream of similar incidents. In essence, this exercise of the Baltic Fleet is also a blackmail campaign by Russia against the Western world with the huge military legacy of the Soviet Union.

However, once the extortion prisoner is one of the world's five biggest hooligans, Russia, with a million-dollar army and the world's second-largest stockpile of nuclear weapons, then no guidelines will be effective against it.

The bad thing for the huge Russia is that although the 500 million interest-free loan aid has finally arrived, there are too many places where the Khitans (Yeltsin) need money.

A very real question is, where will things go if the means are effective, but the hole in the lack of money is very large, and there is no other way?

The facts did not give the Khitan too many choices, or rather, he did not have a choice at all.

With the arrival of the first assistance, the Russian Baltic Fleet soon ended the "exercises". Stimulated by this good news, the Deutsche Mark quickly released the internal pressure of the previous decline in the mark in a very short period of time.

The mark not only restored the original exchange rate, but even increased by 0.3 dollars, and the appreciation ratio immediately pulled the pound into the danger line of the linked exchange rate. It can be said that at this time, Soros only needs to use a little force with his little thumb, and the linkage exchange rate system of the British pound will collapse.

In the financial markets, there was a large number of shorts in the pound from the short term to the long term. The momentum of the wind and clouds is almost a situation where the wall is falling down and everyone is pushing.

However, compared with the rumors of the entire British financial community outside, the gentlemen and gentlemen in the Hellfire Club are a different scene.

"The right time is coming, and the Germans have released almost all their energy in the process of the mark rush. ”

Opposite an old man full of British aristocratic temperament sat a relatively young and refined man.

He cut a large piece of bloody beef from the medium-rare steak in front of him and stuffed it straight into his mouth. Then, without a few chews, he swallowed a large piece of meat in his mouth. Wiping his mouth with a napkin, the lean man continued: "According to the information we have, the Bundesbank only has about $35 billion in foreign exchange available in the short term. Sir, do you think it is time to inform our allies that it is time to strike a fatal blow to the Germans?"

The old man slowly dipped the bread in some thick soup, and said elegantly and unhurriedly: "You can wait a little longer, the French also want to participate, the French financial community paid a large amount of insurance costs in the Gulf War last year." If they can't make a big deal this time, they won't be able to fill the hole. ”

"The French are picky. The refined man was indignant: "The basic investment part in the early stage did not see them active, and when it was time to harvest, they jumped out!"

"No way, our allies have already cheated the French and Swiss. The money was originally cut from the French, and if we did not let them in, our allies would not be able to fully grasp the proceeds. You know, the next step will be the support of our allies. ”

The capable young man nodded helplessly and compromised: "Then after this time, the French and Swiss can always completely let go of this money, right?"

"You have to know the key winner of our operation, but it is in the direction of this money. We ourselves, apart from our allies, have no means to be able to proceed next. ”

"Rest assured, we've done this well for thousands of years. The old man laughed and said: "Unite the French to fight the Germans, unite Germany to fight the French, unite Germany and France to fight the Russians, unite the Russians to fight Germany and the French." As you know, this operation was made by the Prime Minister's think tank, Mr. Cameron, the head of the Policy Research Group, but it was hailed as the most British course of action at the end of the twentieth century. ”

"Oh, yes. ”

Towards the end of the conversation, the old man seemed to suddenly remember something, and said, "Our ally just had a side request, and Rolls-Royce has a project on hand. China's heavy-duty industrial power company wants to get the technology and license to produce the SM1C gas turbine. ”

"Remember, if this can be done, the Germans will definitely be ketchup on our tables. ”
