In contrast, Greece, another rotten brother, is in a much better situation now. Although the Austro-Hungarian Bank suddenly stopped lending and was also affected, it doesn't matter, we have a lot of creditors, and we can deal with it if we think of a way.

For the Greek government led by George I, Ferdinand also had to say "convinced"!

A country with a population of more than 2 million has an army of 150,000 people, including a navy of 40,000 gold-swallowing beasts.

With such a reckless use of military force, it stands to reason that the country should have been full of wolves a long time ago. But Greece did not, although it was also affected by the economic crisis, and there were some small messes, but the country was generally stable.

This is completely due to the unique skills of Greece, one word "borrow"!

George I's political level was very high, and as soon as the economic crisis broke out, he immediately convened a cabinet meeting to find a way to deal with the crisis that might break out next.

"The economic crisis has erupted, what is the strategy of your cabinet?" George I asked expectantly

"Your Majesty, the economic crisis in Greece is caused by external causes! We alone may not be able to get out of the crisis, now only the government will pay for the food, help the unemployed, and when the world economic crisis passes, everything will return to normal! Prime Minister Terry Kupis said with confidence

George I nodded, and he wisely did not object to the government's negative measures.

If we talk about the Balkan countries, who has been most infiltrated by the great powers, there is no doubt that Greece is the first to be promoted.

From the beginning of independence from the colonial rule of the Ottoman Empire, it was all arranged by the Great Powers. King Otto I, who was first in 1832, and now George I, were all chosen by the Great Powers.

National sovereignty has long been lost. Relying on the government to introduce policies to restrict international capital is tantamount to a dream. George I did not have the courage to challenge the great powers, and Greece did not have the strength to challenge the great powers.

George I thought for a moment and said: "This is not enough, we still lack emergency funds in our hands!" You should strengthen your contacts with the banks of various countries and try to get them to disburse a part of the loan in advance in case of emergency! ”

……

Due to the Greek government's preparation in advance, when the Austro-Hungarian Bank stopped issuing loans, the government still had a sum of money in its hands and could slowly negotiate with other banks.

In the end, it was the wealthy British boss who won and took over the debt of the Austro-Hungarian Bank very happily. Oh, it's just two more cents of interest, that's a small thing!

Look at Romania next door, in comparison, Carol I still lived a very good life. The "Black Sea Pearl" is not blown out, the vast black soil, rich mineral resources, even the hairy bear is salivating.

Well, there are so many places that the woolly bear is salivating, so let's leave it alone! Anyway, this rich family foundation provides strong support for the development of Romanian industry.

Since the accession to the throne of Carol I, the development of industry has been encouraged, although no major results have been achieved. But small and medium-sized factories have sprung up like mushrooms and look vibrant.

Like other Balkan countries, Romania was heavily infiltrated by the Great Powers. Romania's fragile economy was hit hard by a wave of wool shearing after the onset of the economic crisis.

After the outbreak of the Austro-Hungarian financial crisis, funds were withdrawn from abroad, and Romania was no exception. However, before the economic crisis, German agriculture had failed to produce crops, and Romania made a fortune thanks to the 1883 German-Austrian Pact.

Then Romania passed the customs without a hitch, only the financial crisis intensified. In order to raise military expenses, Carol I raised taxes on the peasants again.

Looking at the news of neighboring countries that had been summarized, Ferdinand breathed a deep sigh of relief, fortunately, everyone was unlucky together.

People are sometimes like this, when they are unlucky, and when they see others more unlucky, they will gloat, and Ferdinand is no exception.

Judging from the data collected, all the Balkan countries in this economic crisis, without exception, have been affected by the pond fish and suffered heavy losses.

Bulgaria made preparations in advance, domestic capital and state-owned capital occupied a dominant position, and the government strongly suppressed the domestic capitalists, took advantage of the fire to rob, launched the "Second Five-Year Plan" to absorb the unemployed in society, and took the lead in getting rid of the economic crisis.

The Greek government has weathered the crisis with loans, and the government has stabilized the situation by providing relief to the unemployed.

Romania was fertile and producing, and although it suffered heavy losses in industry, it was able to survive the crisis thanks to the exploitation of the peasants. The country is still undercurrent, although volcanic eruptions may occur.

Needless to say, Serbia's economic losses have broken out in a small civil war under Ferdinand's butterfly effect. Well, Ferdinand admits that this uprising had his promoters.

As for the future Montenegrin kingdom of Mentenegro, ignore it. A small country with a population of less than half a million and almost zero industry did not deserve Ferdinand's attention.

Do not be surprised that there is no analysis of the Ottoman Empire. It's not that Ferdinand didn't pay attention, the point is that now the Ottomans are a mess, and the domestic bureaucracy is busy fighting for power all day long. They haven't figured out the specific situation in the country themselves, and it's very bad anyway.

For the Ottoman Ferdinand, he was also happy, anyway, with the memory of later generations, he also knew that the national contradictions of the Ottoman Empire were an unsolvable problem. There was only one spark left to detonate, otherwise Ferdinand's courage would not have set his sights on this giant.

In order to deal with the possible changes in the Balkans, Ferdinand convened a cabinet meeting again.

"Ladies and gentlemen, we have passed the most difficult time since the outbreak of the economic crisis! But then the problem comes again, after the outbreak of the Austro-Hungarian financial crisis, the control of the Balkans was relaxed, and the other powers will definitely find an opportunity to take advantage of it, and it is very likely that there will be major diplomatic changes in the Balkans in the future! And what will we do next in Bulgaria? How can we remain invincible in this change and even obtain greater benefits? Ferdinand said cautiously

This is a big proposition, do not think that Bulgaria and Russia will be able to sit back and relax. If there was a greater interest, Ferdinand wouldn't mind tearing up the treaty at any time, and of course the same would be true for the woolly bear.

The conference room became silent, and although all the people sitting there were Bulgarian elites, everyone was at a loss on this issue. In terms of long-term strategic layout, apart from Ferdinand, Bulgaria really does not have such a long-term strategist now.

Seeing that the scene was embarrassed, Chekov stubbornly said: "Your Excellency, the current situation in the Balkans is a mess, and the forces of Britain, France, Germany, Russia and Austria are intertwined, which makes it really difficult to see the future direction. ”

Ferdinand nodded calmly, he knew that it was not his subordinates who were inactive, but they were really confused by the authorities, and he didn't know what to do.

The new Prime Minister, Konstantin, knows that it is time for him to speak out, and everyone else can not have an opinion, but as a Prime Minister must have.

Said worriedly......
