442 A commission that cannot be refused
Filia pushed him upstairs, and Frederick was still thinking about how to tidy up the room, so she was pushed into the study, closed the door and discussed: "I'm so flustered, I haven't seen Elena talk to you for a long time, can you still reconcile?

Frederick pretended to clean up the desk: "We dissolved the marriage contract, and she will have the final say in government affairs in the future, and I can't interfere." She is now in power, autocratic, and has a very nourishing life, don't worry about it. β
Filia shook her head and said, "There was a misunderstanding between you and her. Seeing that he was indifferent, he walked over and shook his hand: "Shall I admit my mistake? Let's cancel the wedding for the time being? If you really get married with great fanfare, Elena will be sad to death, and when the time comes, the whole city will firmly believe that the two of you will part ways, and there will be bad people who will take advantage of the opportunity to approach Elena!"
"Someone was already approaching her. She now favors Breschroeder, whose financial policies are out of shape. Frederick stopped putting away his books and told Filia helplessly: "I can't reconcile with her, and no one can tell who is proud and who is stubborn." At least for now, I don't agree with her politics, and I can't let go of my old suspicions for the time being. It doesn't have much to do with you. β
"But......," said Filia, wringing her hands twice on the carpet, leaning over to his arm, shaking and begging, "I'm afraid Elena will be upset." Let's call off the wedding first, and I'll be your ...... When your ......"
Filia stammered for a long time before she lowered her head and said, "I'll be your little lover...... Not bad either...... If others want to chew their tongues, let them mutter, and I will be able to bear it for a while. β
"You ......," said Frederick, squeezing her tightly, stroking the cold red hair, frowning, "You always worry about others, when have you ever worried about yourself? It's just you, a stupid girl, so stupid that it makes people feel distressed. β
"Isn't it really heartbreaking for you to turn your back on her and leave?, will you really not regret marrying me?" Filia looked up into his eyes, as if they had met to know his thoughts.
"Life is like a flutter in water, and if you reach anyone, hold on to it, and don't worry about the mirage in the distance. Frederick carefully held her face: "I can't tell right from wrong, but I don't dare to hesitate all the time, so I have to do what I can, regardless of the right and wrong in the world, and concentrate on serving the people in front of me." Marry me, I won't bully you. β
Filia snorted and hid in his arms, took a breath of hot air, sprayed on his neck, and tickled him: "I'm not afraid of you bullying me." I'm afraid you won't be reconciled. β
"Why, do you think the double bed is too spacious?" Frederick reached out to scratch her nose, and Filia squinted comfortably, smiling and emphasizing, "I don't dislike anything, I just want us to be together forever." No matter who the power is given to, we can be as good as ever, and that's good. β
Frederick promised her, "Well, you just want to sleep with you, I promise you." β
"I ...... I didn't say it!" Filia blushed with shame and turned to leave.
"That's basically the spirit, I realized. Frederick tugged at her.
"Who slept with you...... I'll go sleep with Ophelia while you're hey. Felia bowed her head and was hugged by him, pushing and shoving weakly.
"Don't run. You are all my concubines. Frederick accidentally said something rebellious. Fortunately, Felia was too busy to take care of herself and didn't notice this ambition.

The cold winter is even colder, and the ice and snow freeze the entire imperial capital. The snow on the roadside melts, freezes and hardens into ice, and environmental workers have to shovel snow all day to maintain the grip of the wheels.
Dressed in a heavy coat and wrapped in a scarf, Vickers "squeaked" through the snow and passed by SchΓΆnbrunn Square, and walked into the lower palace in embarrassment.
Braischroeder waited for him here, stretched out his hand to sweep the snow off his shoulders, and then handed him a document: "This is a 10 million treasury bond subscription agreement, which has been signed by the Financial Secretary, and only needs your father's seal to present it to the Empress for inspection." After the deed is completed, you have a 0.05% commission, which can be used to honor your father. β
Vickers calculated that 5,000 ounces of gold had come into the account in an instant, equivalent to 140 kilograms of pure gold. The income was worse than the flood, and he felt that his bank account was overflowing.
Close to the central bank, sure enough, the money is rolling. He thought.
But he was surprised how Breschroeder could eat 10 million national debts in an instant. This meant that the "10 million ounces of gold reserves" were already in place, which was too big for Vickers to think was beyond imagination.
"Where did you get so much money? Subscribe to 10 million Treasury bonds in one go?" asked Vickers as he collected the papers.
"Since you asked, I'll tell you the truth. I borrowed money from Paris to buy government bonds, then raised the price by 10% and sold them into the financial markets of Amsterdam, Jamaica, Frankfurt and London, at my own expense. The situation in the HRE Empire was turbulent and its credit was unstable, so it was laborious to sell treasury bonds, and it was not easy to make money. Braischroeder flipped through the papers, told him where to stamp and where to sign, and left.
Vickers didn't understand it at all, but he completely trusted the old man in front of him, so he said yes, and the two parted ways.
An hour later, Vickers returned with the stamped paperwork, and returned to the lower palace in the dust, cautiously asking to see the empress.
Lily made an announcement, and after a while, she came out and whispered: "You are lucky, Your Majesty is in a good mood." I tore off my scarf and hat, and I felt a cool breath on my face. β
When Vickers heard that Rita had been deposed, Lily had become the emperor's most relied on female official, so she quickly smiled and flattered, tore off her hat and scarf, and bent down and flashed into the study.
Floor-to-ceiling windows are by the fireplace, and crackling wood warmly bakes the Empress at the desk. Elena's skirt is gorgeous like a sea of dandelions, fluffily sprinkled in front of the desk, and the skirt is wrapped around the girl's figure as soon as it is closed at the waist, and the off-the-shoulder sleeves are even more sexy with ice and snow skin. Vickers' mouth parched at the sight of her, and he almost forgot the purpose of his visit.
Elena had just finished settling the score, putting down her pen and rubbing her temples with her eyes closed. When he heard the door knocking, he lazily asked, "Vickers?"
"The subscription agreement for the first tranche of Treasury bonds has been completed, and Braischroeder not only agreed to underwrite it, but also took over this tranche of Treasury bonds. Vickers hurriedly presented the document bag: "It is a blessing to my empire to have Braeschroeder do his best." β
