577 Battle of Leipzig (IX) - Borrowing
For the first time, he faced the allied forces of the German princes and won the victory. Although the German army suffered a negligible loss www.biquge.info of troops, the consumption of ammunition supply was staggering, which also attracted the attention of the Tang Republic, which remotely controlled the revolution.
When Bai Nan planned this revolution, he knew that even if the Tang Dynasty gave sufficient support, the probability of success and failure of the revolution was not much different. Because unlike the previous colonial armies in South America against Spain, the conservative forces in Europe were stronger, and both Prussia and Austria were first-class European continental powers, with powerful land forces. Therefore, the revolution will be suppressed by hundreds of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of reactionary forces.
Similarly, for Datang, it is not in the interests of Datang to vigorously support the establishment of republican Germany without restraint. Originally, there was a voice in Datang that after Germany achieved reunification and independence, because of its ******** and practical interests, it would gradually drift away from the Tang Dynasty, which was consistent in doctrine. Both the Tang Dynasty and Germany actually contain a strong nationalism behind internationalism, and German nationalism has not yet fully germinated at this time, but after Marnes really takes charge of the country, he will inevitably follow the example of the Tang Dynasty and give birth to German nationalism. Although internationalism is the foundation, extreme Nazification will not occur, but it is inevitable that there may be differences with Datang's policies in many places.
Datang does need a strong European ally, but it is also particularly important to prevent opposition and how to control the cost of investment. After all, the most important task of Datang now is to vigorously develop domestic construction and continuously enhance its own national strength. The main expenditure of Datang's finance is also on a series of infrastructure construction in the country, after all, the rapid growth of the population and the expansion of the actual scope of rule require a large amount of money investment. This investment has not decreased with the increase in the original development of Datang. On the contrary, it continues to increase, because the development area of Datang is getting larger and larger, and the population is also increasing.
This year, Datang has launched two local wars one after another, fighting Vietnam at the beginning of the year and Japan in the middle of the year, and the mobile funds for the war are almost the same. At this time, the German Revolution broke out. In fact, Datang's finances are relatively tight. Bai Nan and many high-ranking officials of the Tang Dynasty were extremely disapproving of the reckless and large-scale assistance at the expense of their own people's livelihood, as the Soviet Union did in another face. Even if **** supported Vietnam and Albania back then, it was done by tightening the belt. Of course, at this time, Datang's economic conditions were relatively good, and the people's living standards were far higher than the level of the times, but Bai Nan was unwilling to exchange his own economic growth rate for a European ally that supported Datang.
Of course, the support still needs to be supported, and a battle knocked out a third of the ammunition of the German army, and both Bai Nan and the Ministry of Defense were shocked. On the one hand, Blannan urged an increase in aid to the German Republic of arms, ammunition and other materiel. On the other hand, it has also contacted the German National Revolution and is ready to start non-gratuitous assistance.
Datang's code of conduct has never been such a thing as providing aid and support, and you should pay for it all out of your own pocket, so when the three South American countries were established, although Datang gave some help free of charge, the main funds of the three countries still came from Datang's low-interest loans.
On the other hand, Japan has distributed ODAs on a large scale in Asia and other regions, that is, government development assistance, and China has received 3.2 trillion yen of ODA from Japan since 79 years. It has played a major role in China's development. To some extent, the ODA was Japan's post-war reparations to China, and on the other hand, it also opened the way for Japanese industries to enter China. The benefits to the Japanese economy are self-evident.
Although the Tang Dynasty is a modern country with relatively strong orange characteristics, its ability to operate financially is very flexible, even stronger than many capitalist countries in the 20th century. The activity and development of finance can bring stronger impetus and improve efficiency to the development of the entire social economy, of course, if it is uncontrolled and blindly pursues profits, and there is no bottom line. There is a possibility that crises like those of US imperialism will erupt.
Datang's finances are tighter, but it doesn't mean that Datang's commercial banks are out of money. Since Datang's commercial banking giants are not state-owned without exception, and a series of personnel transfers to revenue distribution are controlled by the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission, this allows the Datang government to use more resources. After all, Datang is a Chinese country, and the Chinese people with a strong sense of distress have a strong tendency to save. This also leaves the vast majority of newcomers' money in commercial banks. Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, Datang has maintained low interest rates for a long time. However, people seem to be very satisfied with the interest income and want more places to keep their cash. And commercial banks have been working hard to bring this huge amount of money back to society, that is, to lend. Whether it is a state-owned enterprise or a private enterprise, after proper demonstration, will get loans, the interest rate is not high, and the overall economic environment is superior to the overall rate of return is very high, so as to continue to make money.
But perhaps because of the perception, commercial banks still control a considerable amount of liquidity, private entrepreneurs are cautious, and state-owned enterprises want to lend more but have shackles on their heads to prevent them from wasting money and breeding corruption. Therefore, some overseas investment or government-to-government borrowing is a good project.
After Bai Nan's idea of changing aid from free to paid was passed down, several major commercial banks immediately gave their own plans, and Bai Nan looked very staggered. Some banks have proposed a low-interest loan of 500 million yuan for 20 years, while others have proposed a progressive model of investing a loan every year.
This also shows that the commercial banks are also more optimistic about the German Revolution and the subsequent economic development of Germany, and they all hope to use this loan to get a piece of the pie. Although the so-called low-interest loans, in fact, Datang itself also has low interest rates. At the same time, the underuse of funds and large loans also provided a good project for commercial banks, some of which were trying to take advantage of the opportunity to enter post-war Germany and do business.
After selection and revision, Datang's loan plan went to the table of President Marnes of Hamburg, and Marnes naturally had to do this, although the free became to be repaid, but the long-term loan of ten or twenty years was not unacceptable for Germany, which also meant that Datang would not easily give up the German National Revolution, and their revolutionary road was still very good.
