Over the next three months, the empire was heavily indebted, selling bonds worth 100 million yuan, and it would take two hundred years of tax revenue to pay off the debt. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 infoElena didn't know what was wrong, but she adhered to the principle of openness and released the fiscal chronology to the public.

This almost led to a riot.

Braischroeder rushed into the palace exhausted, scratching his eyes and asking Elena, "Are you crazy?" and his nails almost pulled ten red marks on his old face.

Elena innocently explained: "The empire can't pay off its debts, and I want to raise taxes so that everyone can pay off their debts together." ”

Braischroedt begged the emperor bitterly: "Aren't you afraid of the collapse of the empire! Just keep those debts in mind, and I am not in a hurry to let you pay them!" He finally enslaved the imperial finances, lest the good situation be ruined by Elena.

Elena didn't know how to write the word dead, so she said firmly: "No, it is only natural to repay debts, and if you can't repay your debts, the empire will have to go bankrupt and reorganize." ”

Breschroeder heard the words "empire bankrupt" and fell to the ground. Then he crawled over with tears in his eyes, tugging at the empress's skirt: "You must calm down, there are so many debts, how can you pay them off in one go! It is also possible to repay the taxes slowly for two hundred years; even if I die, it is okay to return the money to my heirs, you don't admit death, don't bankrupt the empire!"

He already smelled the sour smell of fraud. It's just that he is slow to believe that a last emperor would use the fall of the empire as a price to defraud a bad loan.

However, if you think about it carefully, the debt of 100 million marks is equivalent to 50 million ounces of gold, which contains all the liquidity of the three major private central banks of Paris, London, and Wiener, and is even equal to the amount of gold mined in the mainland for two years; moreover, all the money is invested in three departments and six ministries to maintain the infrastructure project, which is completely irrecoverable; it is really cost-effective to exchange such an unprecedented huge sum of money for the bankruptcy of the empire.

So Elena was stern and stubborn: "No, I admit death, debts must be repaid, and bankrupt must be repaid." ”

Braischroeder felt like he had raised a husky, and even with a leash, he was dragged away by a dog, and he couldn't control it at all.

The old fox cried and knelt on the ground, howling anxiously: "Don't pay back...... I didn't expect you to pay it back, let alone pay it back, please. If the empire goes bankrupt, I won't be able to recover a penny!"

Elena innocently mended the knife and poured salt on his wound: "At the beginning, you begged me, 'go and borrow money', I borrowed money, and you used 'pay it back quickly' to blackmail me into signing a treaty; now I am serious about repaying the money, and you beg me not to pay back." The world of the old man is so strange. ”

Braischroeder is crazy. As soon as he wanted to die with the empress, the great beauty gave in: "Okay, I will only publish the annual report, and I will not raise taxes first, so as not to cause a riot." Are you satisfied?"

The old banker breathed a sigh of relief, and felt that he was overly worried, how could Elena deliberately bring down the empire? she was just naïve, she was just stupid.

People prefer to believe in the truth they like. Braischroeder entered the market with all his net worth, held a huge amount of bonds, and instantly soared to the sky, and became rich and rivaled the country. The risk is that if the HRE Empire is liquidated, it means that 1,400 tons of gold cannot be recovered. This is not the most inflammatory, the most inflammatable thing is that at least 1,000 tons of the 1,400 tons of gold loans belong to venture capital in Paris and London - if they can't be recovered, then he will look good.

If this account is rotten, the rooftop of the jumping building will be overcrowded and there will be a stampede. And the conversation goes like this:

"Let's get out of the way! It's the plan submitted by our Habsburg Central Bank, and it should be the people of the Habsburg Central Bank who should jump first!"

"Passers-by have lifted me up, let the Paris credit department jump first! Sir Barton, let's jump first." ”

"What kind of dog are you? Get out of here, the London venture capital department is here! The huge amount of money is sent out by the venture capital department, and no one should compete with us for the first place. Come, Minister George jumps first!three, two, one!freedom!"

"Ahh

"Smack!"

Braischroeder sweats at the thought of that image.

Moreover, Frederick was brought down by his own hands, and Elena was just like a naïve puppet, who had been stupidly at the mercy of her. Braeschroeder has worked hard to win today's situation, and everything he has done today is what he has worked hard and forged with his own hands, and he believes that it is a reward, not a trap.

So instead, he appeased the empress before retiring.

When the empress became the central bank's money-making tool, Breschroeder became the most sincere royalist, and he was as sincere as a dog guarding his food, firmly guarding his job.

The demise of an ancient empire is a once-in-a-lifetime event, and taking the initiative to give up the title of Emperor of the HRE is simply unparalleled, but this historic event can not only make a group of people famous through the ages, but also make a group of people suffer a catastrophe.

And the innocuous "Fall of the HRE in 1735" in history textbooks completely destroyed Breschroed's financial empire.

After the release of the fiscal chronology of the empire's debt of 100 million yuan, the citizens who knew how to read went crazy; the rest of the citizens went crazy after hearing the truth; and a large number of middle classes, reduced to abject poverty, said that they did not know whether to say a dirty word or not, so they chose to sit in silence and demonstrate.

Because it was the imperial capital, the citizens were quite restrained, and everyone gathered in groups, sat outside the palace, and as soon as the banner of "refuse to pay for debts" was pulled, the prelude to the national demonstration was opened.

Under the surging tide of public opinion, the credibility of the imperial family fell like a torrent, pouring for thousands of miles, and the HRE Empire was crumbling in the surging tide of people, hulala like a building about to collapse, and miserable like an oil lamp about to run out.

When Fran the Great heard the news in distant Paris, he was very happy and gloated.

What is even more jaw-dropping is that at this critical juncture, Frederick actually stabbed Elena in the back. He began to make public speeches at the parade sites, openly stirring up trouble, fanning the flames and fueling the procession, causing the furious workers to nearly overthrow the empire.

As soon as this information spread, Paris, London, Berlin, Madrid, Amsterdam, and the Kingdom of Sardinia were all dumbfounded.

Everyone knew that Frederick had been dumped by Elena, and the whole world believed that the count still had a crush on the Empress, but despite having a crush on the Empress, Count Frederick still stabbed her in the back.

Elena is weak and easy to control, which is what the great powers like about her, and why the three major central banks are willing to go out and borrow and make waves. Because they know that girls are better lied.

Frederick's backstab at Elena was unexpected, but it was reasonable, as they had been separated for a long time. The Parisian aristocracy came up with various ways to ridicule Frederick's doomed solitude, and countless jokes were derived, which were told and laughed at every time.

But Frederick's speech made the eyes of the great powers fall and their hearts jump out of their throats.

Because Frederick's speeches have resonated with mountains every time. Both the grieving middle class and the furious workers' brothers were fanatical and intoxicated for Frederick.
