Viola then began to report to Lin Youde on the situation in Germany.

Germany's domestic situation was fairly stable, and several union republics and client states were not greatly affected because most of the goods exported were basic products that were just needed.

However, all economic indicators have been reduced by the turmoil in France, especially in the last quarter, when taxes fell significantly in the last month.

However, the national treasury still has a relatively large amount of inventory, so it has not affected the implementation of the budget.

"Speaking of which," Viola put her hands on the table and looked at Lin Youde after reporting this, "I remember that when you asked me to give up my re-election as president a few years ago, you said that the dividends of economic reform will probably fade after my first term is over, and the economy will enter a state of stagnation. In terms of timing, the decline in economic indicators is in line with your forecast at the time, although the reason is not that the dividends of economic reform have faded......"

Viola's four-year term was due to end in March of this year, but because of the night of the long knives, Viola's term was also extended for a year, and a general election will be held at the end of this year, and if she wins, Viola will start a new presidential term in March next year. Therefore, in terms of time, it is indeed a period of slow economic growth because of the fading of economic dividends predicted by Lin Youde.

"It is true that the fading of the economic dividends has slowed down because we have eaten Austria-Hungary by the same time," Lin Youde continued after glancing at Sissi and confirming that the girl did not have any uncomfortable expression, "The reform of the annexed Austro-Hungarian lands has produced new economic dividends, and the reforms carried out by the union republics and the client states themselves have the same effect. After that, we fought the Turkish War and the ongoing Middle East War, and local wars with limited intensity such as this can effectively boost the economy. ”

War is indeed a money-burning thing, but as long as the degree of money burning is within the appropriate range, then it is good for the economy. The products consumed in the war generate orders, and where there are orders there are jobs.

Because of this, in George? In Orwell's masterpiece "1984", the three superpowers that share the world will fight war regularly, and the strange economy will continue in the nourishment of this regular war. Although this idea may seem like nonsense, a closer examination reveals that in some parts it is very much in line with the principles of economic operation.

There is a saying that many people have heard: the capitalist who sells glass is eager to break all the glass in the city with his own hands, and the capitalist who sells cement is eager to blow the whole city into ruins, and his idea will be strongly supported by the capitalist who sells explosives.

The wars in Turkey and the Middle East stimulated domestic military production, and Turkey's post-war reconstruction provided a wealth of business opportunities for German companies.

After observing this, Lin Youde originally thought that the German economy might maintain a good momentum in Viola's second term, but he didn't expect such a thing to come now.

The world economy did not fully recover from the crisis of 1930, and the Jews were too good to have done so.

Lin Youde's prophecy also came true in this very unexpected way.

"I'd rather my prophecy not be fulfilled."

After Lin Youde finished speaking, the fox with his hands on his chest took over the conversation: "I now think that the Jews may have done it on purpose, and if they do this, Europe will be busy saving itself, and there will be no time to care about their immigration actions." ”

"Possibly." Lin Youde shrugged his shoulders, "But it doesn't matter what they think now, the key is how we can earn back the part of the Jews who pit us." I think it seems good to sign an exclusive agreement with the Jews, and if they want to build a state in that inhospitable land, they must have to purchase a lot of things, and we must seize this opportunity to make a lot of money. ”

"On that note," Viola said, pulling out another piece of paper, "the Jews have made demands to buy weapons, cement, mechanical products, and so on for years to come, and the demand is still quite high. In addition, they want to continue to buy magic armor from us. ”

"Except for us, probably no one will sell them magic armor." "That means we can get a lot of steady orders from the Jews in the next few years, and that's a perfectly acceptable situation." He replied to the Jews that we would fully support them in establishing a state in the Middle East. ”

Next, Lin Youde and Viola carefully discussed how to deal with the domestic situation in the short term, and finally decided to increase orders from the army to ensure the operation of the factory.

**

In terms of the world situation, except for France, which Lin Youde has obtained a lot of first-hand information, Lin Youde has learned all about the situation in Britain, Russia, and the United States.

Americans are busy with the general election again, Charlotte's presidency is until March 1938, and the general election is at the end of 1937, although there is still nearly half a year before the election, but the election campaign is already in full swing, it seems that Charlotte? Draenau? The possibility of Roosevelt's re-election is very high - another time and space, Franklin Roosevelt completed his re-election in 1937, and the inauguration cycle of the US president in this time and space was about half a year later than the previous time and space, so Charlotte's term of office ended in March 1938.

In addition to the election, the U.S. economy is also emerging from the 1930 crisis at a visible rate, which in addition to the role of Charlotte's economic reforms, the reconstruction of the occupied Yingzhou Islands has also brought new growth points to the U.S. economy.

On the British side, Chamberlain has already served as the first chancellor of the exchequer, which means that he is likely to become the next British prime minister - this is very different from another time and space, after all, the British Empire is more powerful than the previous time and space because of the existence of the gods.

In addition, the British economy has been the hardest hit by the turmoil in France, and the British Navy has had to postpone the construction of a new capital ship, the Duke of York, which was supposed to start construction this year.

However, for Lin Youde, the expansion of the British navy has not had much impact for the time being, and he now considers his biggest threat to be the Russian giant bear.

Fortunately, Russia was not having a good time at this time, as the Turkish war overwhelmed its coffers, and the Russian government had to deal with the pressure of repaying the high war loans after the war. When Iron Ji can't take care of things, Natalia, who acts as the state minister, has been trying to repay the loan to appease the people. But as soon as Iron Ji woke up, he immediately began to carry out vigorous reforms.

Actually, it's more accurate to say it's cleaning.

She began a large-scale annexation of Russian domestic enterprises, recovering all the land that had been given to the nobility in preparation for the establishment of collective farms, which at once touched the interests of the great Russian aristocracy, so the great nobles and industrial capitalists united against the Iron Queen.

But Iron Ji didn't intend to use gentle means from the beginning, and the great nobles were still plotting, so she had already done it. The great nobles and industrial capitalists who had gathered together to conspire were hunted down like flocks of sheep, and the army stormed the estates of the great nobles, slaughtering everyone who looked like a nobleman, and then plundering the finances of the estates.

A large number of nobles and intellectuals fled to Poland, and as a result, Iron Ji ordered the military districts bordering Poland to be personally led by Shenhime to patrol along the border, and kill those who fled.

Originally, Iron Ji's domestic reforms in Russia were quite successful, and Russia's economy and industry have made great progress in the years since her rule - although it is not as good as the leap forward of the CCCP in the last time and space, but after all, there is still a huge improvement. But now that she is doing this, the whole of Russia is directly messed up, so that Lin Youde doesn't know how to evaluate the leader of Iron Ji.

At this stage in Russia, the purge has been basically completed, and during the period when Lin Youde went to France, Iron and Steel Ji, who controlled most of the domestic industry and agriculture, began to implement the first five-year plan.

When Lin Youde heard Viola say this, he realized that Iron and Steel Ji, like Comrade Iron and Steel in the previous time and space, wanted to build that kind of highly centralized economic system in Russia.

It can only be said that this product is worthy of being a different time and space isotope of Comrade Steel, and the ideas are almost the same.

Because Russia has undergone nearly ten years of natural development before, Lin Youde does not know what Russia in this time and space will become after several five-year plans. He suddenly had the idea of attacking Russia on his own initiative and defeating Russia before the Russians finished preparing for war.

But he did not dare to do so, for fear of repeating the mistakes of Napoleon, and the mustache of another time.

After thinking about it again, Lin Youde felt that it was better to work hard to develop himself, as long as he climbed the technology tree fast enough, he should be able to withstand the active attack of the Russians - he hoped so.

Lin Youde looked out the window, and before he knew it, it was already evening, so he took a deep breath and said to Viola, who was still flipping through the text, "Why don't you get here today?" ”

"Isn't it?" Viola also looked out the window, "It's only dusk, and it's an hour before dinner, so let's continue to work." When you were in France, I worked late into the night. ”

Lin Youde and the fox glanced at each other, and the fox spread his hands, which meant "you look at it".

Sissi said beside her, "It's true that Miss Viola is busy late every day, and I think it's because of this that that it's better to take a break today." ”

"Yes, yes," Lin Youde hurriedly echoed, "Just take a rest, wife." ”

He stood up, walked around behind Viola, wrapped his arms around Viola's neck, and rubbed his chin against Viola's head.

Viola sighed and closed the text in her hand.

"Well, I can't help it."

As soon as Viola finished speaking, Lin Youde grabbed her chin, kissed her lips, and put his tongue in her mouth.

After the long kiss, as soon as Lin Youde left, Viola stretched her neck with a look of unfinished business, and it seemed that she still wanted it.

Lin Youde patted Viola's shoulder: "Wait for the evening, I'm going to make out with you and Sissi tonight." ”
