In response to the current run, Britain had to continue to increase exports in exchange for more coinage.

But both France and the German states raised trade barriers to prevent the British from taking advantage of the opportunity to dump goods.

This weakened Britain's ability to consume cotton, which in turn weakened, exacerbating the economic crisis.

Herman Buren, the largest cotton buyer in the United States, declared bankruptcy, and more companies engaged in cotton-related industries went bankrupt...

Looking at the snowflakes of bankruptcy reports in front of him, Martin Van Buren sat in the carriage made of the planks of the frigate Constitution, and his heart was like ashes.

Martin Van Buren didn't know where to go, and to add insult to injury, the Texans easily accepted their new identity as French.

In the first battle of France's return to North America, it inflicted heavy losses on the invincible American army, which instantly made the red necks of Texas fall for it and shout "Long live France!" ”

That's right, everywhere the French army passed, you could see red necks with a mouthful of American French. The scene of eating pot pulp to welcome the king made Gabriel, the governor of Texas, feel like he had returned to the Napoleonic era.

He followed General Napoleon through the Arc de Triomphe, and the people welcomed them in the same way.

Later, the First Empire fell, and Gabriel was expelled by the royalists and spurned by the people.

During the July Dynasty, Louis Philippe reinstated him, but Gabriel could only be a dog of the Orleans family, suppressing uprisings everywhere, and he was called a butcher and executioner.

Today this kind of treatment is something Gabriel could never have dreamed of, and it makes Gabriel feel very good.

And this action of the red necks inadvertently saved their lives.

The French colonial policy was even more brutal than that of the British, not only did they plunder wealth and monopolize trade, but they also had to implement a tough policy of assimilation.

It is almost impossible to prop up proxies as the British do, and the French often choose to completely eliminate all resistance.

This has to do with the needs of both countries, the United Kingdom is an island country with strong industrial power and needs a vast dumping ground for goods.

France has a huge market of its own, and at the same time can radiate its own power to the interior of the European continent, and it needs more raw material origins.

In order to better suppress the resistance of the colonies, the colonial governors of France had very great power.

Gabriel was very touched by the performance of the rednecks today, and he wanted to recreate the glory of New France with Texas as a starting point.

Governor Gabriel announced to the Rednecks:

"All persons residing in the French colonies, regardless of the colour of their skin, are French nationals and enjoy all the rights provided for in the Constitution. Any person born or freed in a French colony shall have (1) the right of citizenship; (2) Political rights provided for by law. ”

Moreover, in order to win the hearts of the people, Gabriel imposed a lower tax rate than in mainland France, and guaranteed that no merchant would monopolize trade.

He kept the Rednecks' existing possessions, and if the Rednecks wanted to continue cultivating the land, they only had to pay a fee to the French colonial government.

Of course, Gabriel also had his demand, that is, all Texans must enroll their children in Catholic schools established in France to learn French.

Learning French was nothing, but the Catholic school disgusted the Rednecks, and one of them immediately offered to pay for their own school to learn French.

Governor Gabriel agreed to the Rednecks' request, but all children must be enrolled until 1840. This is Governor Gabriel's bottom line, and the rednecks also know it, so they naturally dare not disobey it.

Governor Gabriel also asked the Texans to form the Texas Self-Defense Army, and the officers were personally appointed by the Governor and were mainly volunteers, but in the case of insufficient numbers, the colonial government had the right to forcibly conscript, and those who were forcibly conscripted could use money to let others serve on their behalf.

In fact, there was no need for Governor Gabriel to worry, the Rednecks admired the mighty French army, after all, the Mexicans, whom they could not defeat, were pressed and beaten by the American army, and the French army was killed by the American army as soon as it arrived.

The fact that the 3,000 American prisoners are still working on the plantations in place of the black slaves is the best proof of this.

When the Mexican army retreated, almost all blacks chose to abandon their possessions to follow Tasan Anna's army.

So after the war, the slave owners of Texas could not find a single slave at all.

Since the slave trade was forbidden in France, the slave owners wanted to get their slaves back, after all, those slaves were originally their property, and the U.S. military had promised before, but now the U.S. military was captured.

Governor Gabriel saw this as a good opportunity, acknowledging slavery in Texas and writing to the Cabinet saying that it was a Texan tradition and should be respected.

In fact, the French cabinet did not care about this at all, slavery was only confined to Texas and not in the country, so the Catholic clergy would not have an opinion.

Governor Gabriel wanted to get back the black slaves from Mexico, but Tasan Anna refused.

Governor Gabriel's courier, who even spotted a black officer standing beside Tasan Anna, had to flee back to Texas to tell Gabriel.

As a result, Governor Gabriel distributed the American prisoners of war who had not paid the ransom to the slave owners of Texas as compensation for the loss of black slaves.

France's ambitions are by no means just a Texan, and this is just the beginning.

For this reason, France decided to emigrate 100,000 people to Texas, and of course the land of Texas would be enough even if another 200,000 people were settled.

This is also the reason why Governor Gabriel, must form the Texas Self-Defense Army.

For France, one Texas was not enough, they wanted Louisiana, Wyoming, Oregon, Quebec, and all of North America to submit to the feet of France.

This financial tsunami did not have much impact on the Austrian Empire.

On the contrary, it has had a great impact on Austria's international financiers, especially the Rothschilds, who have incurred a lot of bad debts due to the collapse of land prices in the United States, and even lost many loans.

Some people have no money, and some people are rich.

Among them was Archduke Karl, who, as the richest aristocrat in Austria, did not hesitate to use his funds to buy Austrian railway stocks after receiving Franz's letter.

Eventually, for fifteen million florins, the railway from Vienna to Venice was bought.

However, Archduke Karl was not satisfied, and he considered himself an Italian like Franz II, and he was going to build the railway to Tuscany so that he could return home.

Archduke Karl's butlers put a stop to his madness, after all, in the eyes of the butlers, it was no different from spending money, and it was even more affordable to buy some art.

As for why it was the stewards, because there were 500,000 people working for the family of Archduke Karl, and one steward was really not enough.

1836, Christmas Eve.

Looking out the window at Talia, dressed in a fiery red velvet jacket with a fiery red blouse and a little skirt, Franz really didn't know how to violate the doctrine.

Oh, and a pointed red hat, and Talia was carrying a bag and climbing up to Franz's window along the sheets.

"Here, Christmas present!"

Franz opened the bag and found that it was the remaining funds for the acquisition of the railway, and he couldn't help but have black lines.

"It's my money!"
