Chapter 214: Prepare in advance
"In fact, we have found a way to reduce our losses, and we only need to copy it once in the next crisis." Yarmar tried his best to persuade him to dispel Eric's idea of dyeing Germany red by all means.
In Yarma's view, restricting capital is the same virtue as the Soviet Union.
"Not enough!" Eric was furious.
"It's not enough, because we've used it once before, and the next time we want to draw a scoop with a gourd, there will be a lack of space." Eric knew that Yarma was referring to the country's efforts to build infrastructure to boost domestic demand.
In 1919, the number of German infrastructure plans was planned to take four years, but by October 1920 the plan was almost halfway through.
The pace at which infrastructure was completed was not static, and as the level of infrastructure increased, so did it, and it was not surprising that it was completed in 1921.
This is what Eric is worried about, and if the next financial crisis comes again, there will not be enough space and domestic demand.
Yarma stopped talking, and Luther understood what Eric was worried about, which was what they needed to worry about, but their own president was obviously young and energetic, and everything was thought of before them.
"Learning from the Soviet Union will only be counterproductive, and it will not benefit the status quo." Yarma stated the facts, but there was no longer the excitement of the beginning.
"I mean learning a part, not copying everything. You must know that the system is not immutable, and if it cannot be upgraded with the times, the backwardness of the system will be beaten. "Eric is a military fan who has seen a lot of history, and thousands of years of human civilization have told the fable of a great era in which advanced systems eliminate backward systems and enslave backward systems.
"But..." Yarma really doesn't want to say, your old man's learning is the ultimate trick to learn, is it a little anxious, be careful of going crazy and "car destroys people".
Eric didn't notice the expressions of the two, but walked over to the wall where the world map was hung and stared at the map in a daze.
His eyes first fell directly to the East, where there is a huge potential market, if conditions permit, Germany may not be able to listen to this crisis, just rely on the huge consumption potential here.
It's just that he immediately shook his head, it's too difficult, not to mention that Germany no longer has a base in the Far East, and even if there is, Germany will not want to interfere in the division of interests there. The United States has already set its sights on Asia after diverting its attention, and Germany cannot reach out there if it does not want to fall out with the United States.
Unfortunately, Germany is really inseparable from the support of the United States, and the United States is not the only one in the world that has Germany's continued resources, but what is even more unfortunate is that only the United States has enough mining volume, and mineral deposits do not represent export volumes, and they must have the ability, time, and equipment to exploit them.
Then he turned his attention to the Middle East.
"This is already in my plan, and the potential has not yet been explored, it is unknown, so I don't think about it." Eric stared at the map and muttered to himself.
"Mr. President?" Luther remembered that he was still arguing about whether Germany was red or not, and as soon as the president looked at the map.
"What's the matter?" Eric asked a little impatiently, because he felt as if he had thought of a way again, but he just missed the point, he was looking for a feeling.
"What are you looking at?" Luther asked.
"The market, the financial crisis is nothing to put it bluntly, it is nothing more than that there are more goods, and the money is more valuable, which is easy to solve. The other one is in trouble, the goods are less, and the money is worthless. Eric didn't use jargon, he was just joking.
Luther and Yarma didn't sit still, and stood together on the edge of the map.
After seeing the Middle East, Eric saw Africa again.
I saw him cover his face with his hands. "I'm afraid I'm not going to sell it for 10,000 years."
"What?" Armar and Luther asked at the same time, because Eric didn't speak German at all, and naturally they couldn't understand it.
"Oh, I said that if I dumped my products in Africa, I would have to live as Zeus." Eric quipped.
"Flutter-" Alma and Luther burst out laughing.
Yarma was also accustomed to Eric's inexplicable humor, but Luther was once, and suddenly thought of it and laughed even harder.
"Okay, okay, it's not a very funny thing, are you?" Eric was somewhat annoyed that Luther's laughter interrupted his thoughts.
"What I'm really worried about is that uncontrollable production capacity will pull Germany into the abyss." Eric's concern is not unreasonable, when the financial crisis comes, in the world of capital, whoever has the better economy will suffer a proportional loss.
Germany coincidentally re-entered the world's second largest economy before the financial crisis, which seems to be infinitely beautiful, but in fact it is a murderous opportunity.
"What about here?" Yarma is engaged in economics, he has been a banker, he has been a chairman, and he has also been involved in various financial industries, so it is easy to follow Eric's train of thought.
"It's difficult, on the surface, we are wearing a pair of pants here, but in fact it is a wolf dog that has been tied for a long time, and finally took a look at the outside world, and was anxious to break free from the restraints and go around." Eric just glanced at South America and looked away.
"The United States is a sturdy owner, and it is impossible for its own dogs to escape easily, at least not yet, not to mention that these wolf dogs are still looking at each other and often fighting on their own." Eric vetoed Yarmar's proposal.
In the end, there is only one place, the grass next to the rabbit's nest - Europe.
There is no need to look at the west, France occupies a huge land area of the European continent, but it is a feud with Germany, and it is not considered.
Spain, it can be, but its position is not firm enough, and it is playing Tai Chi between Britain, France, and Germany, and it is impossible to seize it for the time being, and it can only be effective by infiltrating the political circles through economic import. Unfortunately, the Federal Republic of Germany did not carry on the political and diplomatic legacy of the Second German Reich at all, and it took time to rebuild its foundations.
Portugal is a good choice, Germany and Portugal have always traded and have no grudges, and Portugal, which has always remained neutral, will not get too close to any of the three countries, and intends to take it all. This kind of all-you-can-eat different Spanish shamelessness is an equivalent transaction, and there is no deception in children.
As for the British Isles, which are suspended from the mainland, they are also exempt, and whoever touches them is tantamount to declaring war on Britain and its colonies.
"It's really a nest now." Eric finally moved his gaze back to central Europe, starting in the north from Norway, Sweden, and Denmark to Italy and the Ottoman region.
"Everyone is fighting here, and there is no advantage." Eric encircles the Iberian Peninsula.
"I don't touch here, I don't get into trouble." Eric drew a circle of France and the surrounding Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg, and Switzerland for Almar and Luther.
"I don't dare to touch it here, I can't afford to touch it." Eric circled the British Isles again.
