What drove Bismarck mad the most was that the parliament, as in the past, rejected all his budgets and declared that the government had no right to use the funds of the state treasury without the approval of the parliament, otherwise it was unconstitutional, for which the government ministers were fully responsible. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoBismarck issued a strongly worded response on the same day, characterizing the parliamentary opposition as a "traitor" who obstructed the king's foreign policy and objectively played a role in collaborating with the enemy. In fact, Bismarck knew that many in the liberal wing of the parliament were overjoyed by the Prussian victory in the Prussian-Danish and Austro-Prussian wars, and that his accusation of treason was intended to stab the self-esteem of these people and thus induce them to change their ways. The fanatics in the liberal wing of the parliament were also not vegetarians, and there were accusations that Bismarck was deceiving the parliament and the king. Bismarck was furious when he heard the news, and immediately asked the other side for a duel. The whole Berlin political class was shaken, knowing that the duel was a mixture of bravery and recklessness, and once the duel began, there was no possibility of retreat and persuasion, and the probability of both sides being killed or injured was extremely high. If the Prime Minister of Prussia were to die in a dueling arena, the situation would change dramatically throughout Europe. Bismarck was irritable by nature, and as early as his college years, he had dueled with people 27 times, and he was amazingly bold. Thanks to the private dissuasion of Braischroeder and others, even Rothschild, who was far away in Frankfurt, was concerned about the duel. Although the final duel was dissuaded, Bismarck's anger and anxiety about the parliament's rejection of the government budget grew day by day.

Bismarck needed money too much, and without the support of money, his ideals could only be dreams, and his dreams would eventually fade into fantasies. Hatefully, King Wilhelm, the head of a country, knew nothing about finances, and he did not know that Bismarck was facing powerful characters from both the old and new generations of the Rothchild family.

Bismarck put down the letter from Braeschroeder in his hand and took another letter and read it.

This letter was written to him by James Mayer Rothschild in Paris.

"I hope that I have not made any bad impression on you, my honor, and although I have never had the pleasure of meeting you, I hope that the pleasant experience of our family business and your cooperation, as well as some other cooperative relations with us, will make you fully believe in my sincerity. You have seen that our family has benefited greatly from the good business relations with the Prussian government, and that our family is willing to offer its most loyal service to Prussia, not for any personal considerations, but for the benefit of the whole family. Despite the recent events in Europe that have affected peace and order, resulting in the recent stagnation of transactions, great financial losses to the family, and extreme psychological disappointment, we have a clear conscience and we can operate with confidence in the face of God and all those who deserve respect. My nephew is doing his best to negotiate this deal, and a letter on the details of the matter will be presented to you later. ”

"I would like to ask for your forgiveness, I am old and in deteriorating health, and I am no longer able to cope with the numerous complicated and difficult events around me, so I hope that the process of negotiations will be speeded up, so that my nephew Meyer Carr can return to me as soon as possible, he has always been my right-hand man, my right-hand man, without whom it is very difficult for me to deal with affairs. Gracious Excellency, I beg you to be considerate of my plight, and I am sure that the business between us will be resolved smoothly, and that the justice and loyalty of the Prussian Government have always filled me with great hope......"

Bismarck looked at Braeschroeder's letter again.

"They stressed that they were taking great risks in fulfilling their contracts, that they would still have to suffer some financial losses even if some of the terms were amended, and that the Rothschild family felt that all their financial plans had been hampered by some bias, and that they wanted to be completely freed, and that they were willing to pay a certain amount of wealth as compensation. The Rothchild family are willing to offer a sizable fortune to get out of this contract, even though they have been approved to restart the business at any time, and they will not hesitate to act if the circumstances turn in a favourable direction. ”

"I hope that you will persuade the king to accept the Rothchild family's demand, through this exchange loan transaction the country has achieved the desired goal, and it should be done in moderation, so that the interests of the Rothchild family will not be sacrificed more."

Seeing this, Bismarck couldn't help but clench his fists.

Braischroed's advice was correct, and it would not be easy to force the Rothschild family to bow their heads if they were to the end, even though it might be a detriment to their family's honor. Worse still, such a protracted lose-lose war would bring shame on the country's fiscal system. He therefore proposes to meet all the demands of the Rothschild family, which are a helpless act to adapt to the needs of the affairs of the state in order to conform to the present situation.

"The recent political turmoil and financial austerity in Europe have made the old way of obtaining loans completely unworkable...... The Rothschild family's wealth is still very substantial, but they lack the large amount of cash needed for this transaction, because most of the Rothchild family's wealth is public debt of European countries and cannot be immediately exchanged for cash on exchanges. As a result, the Rothchild family's banks had to refuse large direct loans and instead use principal-agent methods to handle the loans, such as the loan business with Austria, and if the Rothchild family needed to make an advance payment, they would sell the newly issued public bonds at a very low price, which would greatly hurt the issuing country. ”

Bismarck knew that he had instructed Braischroedt to do his best to start a new "business" with the Rothschild family, which, if successful, would not only make up for the years of Prussian state finances, but also raise a huge sum of money for the war!

Although Breschroeder was still apprehensive about the deal, he wanted to work with the Rothschild family again, as he felt that the Bank of Berlin "could not afford such a huge deal". This scheme greatly pleased the Rothild family in Frankfurt. However, they still have some concerns, and the business of the Rothchild family is currently in temporary trouble, but they do not refuse; Meyerkar Rothschild told Braischroedt that the Rothschild family was more than happy to cooperate with the Prussian government again. In a way, they are very grateful to Braischroed. It was precisely because of Braischroed's influence on the King and Prime Minister of Prussia that he suddenly became a lucky star for the Rothschild family.

Thinking of this, Bismarck's clenched fists relaxed again.

Bismarck put the two letters away and went to the map table.

Now he could finally relax and concentrate on the details of his war plans against France.

At this time, Bismarck did not know that on the same night, in the far east, there was another person, also under the lamp, doing a similar plan. He couldn't have imagined that it was this person who, in a way he could never have imagined, had rewritten the political map of the "new Europe" that he had worked so hard to formulate!

In the study, Lin Yizhe was busy in the dim candlelight.

"Miss wants me to send a bowl of white fungus soup to my uncle, and by the way, my uncle still doesn't sleep?" Cai Yue appeared behind Lin Yizhe at some point and asked softly.

"It's going to take a while, it's going to be fine, you go back and tell her, let her sleep first." Lin Yizhe smiled, put down the pen, stretched his waist, took the soup bowl from her hand, and without using a spoon, he directly drank the cow, ate the soup and the white fungus inside, smacked his lips happily, and then buried his head in the dry again.

When Cai Yue saw his appearance, she couldn't help but smile.

She came to Lin Yizhe's side and saw that Lin Yizhe was drawing a map on paper with a pencil, and in his hand, he spread out an atlas printed with foreign characters.

"Uncle, this is drawing a map?" Cai Yue asked curiously.

"Yes, it's a map of France and the states of Germany." Lin Yizhe nodded, but his hand still did not stop, he drew while marking on the hand-drawn map against the atlas at hand.

Caiyue couldn't help but feel a little strange when she saw that Lin Yizhe's newly drawn map was still marked with foreign characters, not Chinese characters.

But she soon noticed that on the map drawn by Lin Yizhe, there were many large arrows drawn with different virtual and real lines, pointing at each other, as if two armies were fighting.

"Caiyue, take a look, can you understand what this is?" Lin Yizhe asked with a smile while drawing.

"Hmm...... It looks like it's playing chess, but there are no chess pieces, hehe. Cai Yue smiled, "Is my uncle marching and arranging the formation?" ”

"Hehe, Caiyue is so smart, what she said is almost the same, but not exactly." Lin Yizhe smiled and nodded.

Cai Yue looked at it for a while, didn't bother him anymore, but quietly retreated and closed the door. She knew that Chen Wan was still waiting for her return, so she walked back with brisk steps.

Cai Yue didn't know that her first feeling about these maps was completely correct.

If she knew French, she would find that the words marked by Lin Yizhe on the map not only have the names of cities and military places such as Paris, Sedan and Chalon, but also the locations of roads, rivers, bridges, and even the numbers of the French and Prussian armies!

After finishing the drawing, Lin Yizhe let out a long breath, carefully put away the drawn map, put it into a wooden box and locked it. After putting the wooden box away, he looked at the atlas that Riyige had helped him get, and when he saw the port of Kiel, Germany, another spark suddenly flashed in his mind!

"Kiel, this is Wilhelm and Bismarck's soft eggs - it looks like this place could do something about it......"
