Chapter 296: Diesel
Although the moves of China and Japan in the Far East are attractive enough, they have little impact on Italy at the moment. Although Italy has a lot of interests in the Far East, the most important thing in Italy is still the mainland.
As the king of Italy, Carlo still found time to learn about other countries, and his channels of knowledge were not only the messages sent back by the ambassadors, but also the newspapers of various countries.
"Damn, how did I forget about him."
Carlo was holding a German newspaper, looked at a small piece of news on it, and suddenly screamed.
The newspaper was a few days ago, but only a short piece of news caught Carlo's attention. There was an explosion in Augsburg today, it is said that a man named Diesel is developing a new engine, but what kind of engine is it, it needs to cause an explosion that resounded throughout the city, is this man studying the engine started by explosives, if you want to know more information, please look forward to tomorrow's report.
Carlo was not expecting the cause of the explosion in Augsburg, and he focused on the man named Diesel.
Because of the name, there is a great connection with diesel engines. (The German word for diesel comes from his name)
Thinking of this, Carlo picked up the phone and said. "Let the chief of the guard investigate what the full name of the Dissel who caused the explosion in Augsburg is."
That's right, Carlo wanted to investigate the man named Diesel.
Don't blame Carlo for not remembering names, after more than 20 years of washing, how can he know people's names anytime and anywhere. Not to mention knowing its deeds, this kind of treatment does not exceed ten in Carlo's mind, and these people are all famous figures.
Isn't this called Adolf? Hitler, why has it always occupied memory. He's not a computer, and he's always able to remember everyone's names.
It was already nice for him to think of the inventor of the diesel engine when he saw the name in the newspaper.
This is probably one of the reasons why Carlo likes to read newspapers, and he can trigger his memories of his past life through the reports of newspapers in various countries.
Of course, Diesel can't be in a hurry about this matter, first investigate and decide whether to invite the other party. Of course, even if Diesel does not accept the invitation, the funders, I believe that it is not too much for every inventor.
Desel's affairs, although important, are not particularly urgent, and there are many more important than this, such as the rectification of the financial world in Italy.
Since the establishment of the National Bank of Italy, there has been an additional supervisor at the head of the Italian banking sector.
And the national bank with the status of a central bank is more about making the Italian banking industry more regulated. In the past three years, the State Bank has punished banks for 924 violations and dealt with 327 violators, gradually standardizing the chaotic and disorderly banking industry.
Of course, this is just one of the many businesses that Bank Negara has to offer. For the National Bank, he has more important things, such as supervising the banking and financial industry, and gradually recovering some of the banknotes. This can be regarded as a remedy for the previous government's excessive issuance of banknotes, but the National Bank has done a very good job, using its role as a regulator and regulator to gradually recover a lot of market funds.
As the most direct manifestation of this, the Italian fiat currency, the lira, gradually stopped falling and rebounded in the foreign exchange market, from a minimum of 27.218 lira to a pound sterling, and gradually rebounded to 26.375 to a pound. Although it has not yet risen to the government-announced 25.236 lira per pound, it is at least gaining momentum. Moreover, the Italian financial industry, under the supervision of the national bank, can develop healthily.
Just last year, the Italian banking sector lent 3.27 billion lira to the private sector, an increase of 5.79% over the previous year. Among them, industrial loans to the private sector amounted to 1.395 billion lira, an increase of 7.36% over the previous year. And helped the industry to complete the growth of 11.27%.
In addition, it has also created more than 100,000 jobs and benefited more than 600,000 people.
It is a surprise that we can see from the bank lending that Italian industry is picking up speed. This also shows that after so many years, private enterprises and factories have gradually developed and expanded.
Although there are many problems in private enterprises and factories, just like later generations, such as tax evasion and low wages of workers, they still have a good role in promoting the economic development of Italy.
Relying on state-owned enterprises or large enterprises alone, the Italian economy is likely to be at an impasse. As a carlo, who has memories of later generations, of course, also knows this.
So after reading this report from the National Bank, he finally reassured the financial industry. Of course, this is only a temporary reassurance, and he also knows the greed of the financial industry, but the financial industry can neither let go nor be stuck, and if it wants to be just right, it must be the unremitting efforts of many regulators, including the National Bank.
Just as Carlo wanted to continue checking the other papers on the desk, there was a knock on the door. Immediately after that, a beautiful figure appeared in front of him, and it was none other than Carlo's wife, Queen Maria.
Maria, who still has a hint of girlishness in her eyes, is wearing a casual dress, but her slightly bulging lower abdomen can't cover it.
That's right, Carlo's little wife is pregnant.
If this is in the next life, if a sixteen-year-old girl is pregnant, Carlo will definitely be condemned by 10,000 people. But in this era, there is not so much attention, and in the Far East, there are a lot of thirteen or fourteen-year-old babies with children.
But although no one will say anything, Carlo still loves his girly wife very much.
"What's wrong, Maria."
Carlo who stepped forward asked his wife with concern.
"It's nothing, it's just a dull panic."
"Didn't your mother accompany you?"
In the face of her husband Carlo's words, Maria looked at him with her hands on her cheeks. "But it's not you, mother."
Well, in the end, the problem still falls on Carlo himself.
But if you think about it, you also know that a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl is a first-time wife, and she has not many friends in Rome, plus she is pregnant, so what she needs most is naturally the care of her husband Carlo. However, as a king, Carlo has a lot of things to do every day, and the time he can take care of his wife is very short, which can be regarded as his wife Maria's mentorship.
"Okay, why don't we go out tomorrow, where do you want to go?"
In the face of Carlo's satisfactory answer, Maria was very satisfied.
"That's it, let me think about where to go tomorrow, and I'll tell you after a while."
Having gotten the results she wanted, Maria left Carlo's office.
And Carlo looked at the papers on the table and smiled bitterly. It looks like the documents are going to pile up again. While work is important, the family must also be taken care of.
