Walter stared at the back of Frederick's domineering head for a while, then suddenly shrugged his shoulders and muttered heartlessly: "It's my business, anyway, I can make the Habs Central Bank uncomfortable." Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info I enjoy it. As he spoke, he chased after him and shouted: "Hey! If you print the second batch of banknotes, we will have to seriously talk about the exchange rate!

"It's not called paper money. Frederick didn't look back," called Glory Thaler. 1 thal is 100 shillings, which is 10,000 dinars. And Taylor and Taylor will continue to maintain a 1:1 exchange rate. Unless you decide to break off our cooperation, or you feel that Fort William is on the verge of bankruptcy. ”

Frederick paused, turned his head to look at Walter, and emphasized, word for word, "And neither of these things will happen." Right?"

"Actually," Walter squinted and raised his index finger as he struggled to weigh his words, "we don't have a definite consensus on the latter. Well, bankruptcy or something, it's still to be assessed, isn't it?"

"Neither of these things will happen. Or both at the same time. Take your pick. Frederick walked over and looked Walter in the eye.

Walter was stunned for a moment, then realized that he had boarded the thief ship.

At this time, the debts have been released, and if the agreement is temporarily interrupted, not to mention the mess between Frederick and Watertown, his reputation and reputation will plummet, and I am afraid that the capital chain will be hit hard, and he may not be able to withstand the blow of the chain reaction.

Lending is divided into three grades: the upper grade lends to the royal family and the king, basically there is no risk of defaulting on the debt, and the interest is steadily collected. Zhongpin lent money to the aristocracy and could be operated as a long-term model. Inferior products are lent to craftsmen and civilians, and often they cannot make a return on their capital, so they can only do short-term business. There were only three emperor-level lenders on the continent: Fran the Great of Paris, Habs III of Venus, and the Elector of Prusha. There are not many kings, less than 20. They all have fixed cooperative banks, and ordinary people simply cannot become their "royal financial agents". So it is very difficult to complete a "high-quality loan".

Walter is well aware of this, he characterizes Bafaria as a "hungry market" and Frederick as a "roaring wolf", so for this special loan of 10,000 gold, Walter treats it as a "high-grade loan", and he makes a lot of matchmaking. If this business is yellow, Walter would rather go to **** three catties to turn back time.

So now, Frederick's interests represent his Walter's interests. Frederick, the miser, obviously played the abacus very loudly, so he gradually occupied an equal voice.

"The issue of the exchange rate, let's discuss it again. 1:1 may not be realistic, as the size of the reserves needs to be reviewed and the impact of the inflation rate will need to be taken into account. But with an exchange rate of about 1:1.2, I can probably take it for you. Walter decided to compromise, "If I tried." ”

Frederick was silent for two seconds, and then clapped happily: "That's fair. He turned around and walked away.

Thaler, as a newly issued currency, would never allow Watertown to accept a 1:1 exchange rate. To put it to the extreme, if Fort William had shamelessly printed Teller, continued to exchange Taylor, absorbed a lot of gold, and then announced the abolition of Teller, then Watertown would have suffered a dishonorable robbery.

Fort William's credit is not strong enough to turn its exports into gold.

The Power Square at the foot of Wilhelhelm Castle is particularly lively. In the center of the square stands a pitch-black pig iron monument, which is made of a batch of scrapped power swords, the monument is so high that two people can't climb the top of the arhats.

The monument is an oval moon. Standing close and looking closely, it will be inexplicable, and when you go far away, people will be frightened to recognize that it is actually a domineering sword arc, and the scene in your eyes when you look at the power sword to kill the enemy: it is the sword of the bright moon that never stops, and it is a steady stream of vertical and horizontal shutting. Even if the enemy breaks through the city gates, they will see the pitch-black sword arc in the power plaza along the castle street, as if they saw a giant dancing with a sword, which makes the invaders creepy.

This is the totemic spirit that the Bafarians worship: motivation, a constant stream of motivation, which makes people do not hesitate to put into action, accept failure, and continue to try until they usher in brilliant success. It's like a never-ending sword of power.

This monument is a reminder that in Bafaria, even the mere farmer is a sword of the moon, always motivated and ready to fight.

The knights of Fort William, dressed in plate armor, had piled up all the military rations in the castle on the square, set up a line-of-corridor tent around the grain mountain, covered the scorching sun, set up a long table, set up a fully documented contract office, and then put the knight's helmet at his feet, pinched a thin quill with heavy chain mail gloves, and squinted at the hungry people lining up in front of him: "Do you want gold or paper money?"

"Gold or paper money?" became a knight's nightmare. In the past two days, they have to repeat this sentence at least 800 times a day, and dry mouth is second, and the key is that they are almost nauseous when they hear this sentence.

And that's not even the saddest of all. The most indignant was Sir Farragut, because of his fierce appearance and loud voice, so the Earl commissioned him to recite the decree with divine power, and read it every ten minutes, a hundred times a day:

"You say, you need food! So there was food in the square. So the Williams made an exception and allowed you to exchange honest labor for honest gold! So how do you get food and gold?

Farragut took the bulletin, pulled the collar of his shirt hard, rubbed his throat, and then continued to shout hoarsely:

"First of all, line up on the east side of the square, and your beloved Sir Lancelot will offer you a contract of work to reclaim the farm, smelt steel, manage the mill, and the war workshop, with a long and short terms for you to choose from. Then take the work contract and go to the south to line up, your beloved Lord Otto will give you the first month's salary advance according to the terms of the contract, and now you are faced with a choice! If you choose gold as your salary, Lord Otto will give you gold! However, if you choose 'Glory Thaler' as your salary, you will get a 20% salary increase, and 'Teller' can freely exchange the same amount of gold coins for the last three days of each month, you only need to go to the Fort William back office to exchange it! When you happily get your advance, you can go to the north to line up and use your money to buy the food you need!"

Farragut finished his recitation breathlessly, picked up the kettle and raised his head to drink, and grunted through the cow.

Otto was also forced to sit under the tent, facing the long queue of hungry people, smiling at each other, and only when he took the time to wipe his sweat with a towel, he would secretly turn his head, glance at Frederick beside him and complain angrily: "Why do I want to come here to be your coolie, brother!

Suddenly, a voice like a silver bell floated weakly: "Oh, Your Highness Otto, can you give me an advance of 30 silver coins? ”
