Old Sword Master

Maximilian, who was also in the room, murmured and didn’t immediately follow. It seems that the big brother has not fooled the younger sister.

‘Warlock is really useless, will not deceive people. “If the queen would think that way under normal circumstances, but this warlock is different, so her thoughts at this time are, “My son is such a good big brother! ‘

Of course, without Maximil’s even confirmation, Anna also made sure that the mother was partial to the big brother.

“I saw a money order that can only be taken in autumn at the Fugger Textile Association today. It was withdrawn early this morning. The discount is 150 talers, and the actual withdrawal is 4850 talers.” But the knight-errant daughter followed a certain bad guy. The second far door is also long-minded, “5000 talers, a large bill of exchange, and it was issued by the Buda branch of the Fugger Textile Association. It must be your mother’s private money!”

This money is the real estate of the Queen’s natal Agronni family in Hungary. Although the Kingdom of Hungary no longer exists, the royal family’s private property must still exist. There used to be 1000 good horses, covering an area of ​​10000 hectares. Pastures, as well as several blocks of properties in Buda, the regent claimed that these lands have been poisoned and are now deserted.

After a long quarrel between the queen and the regent, the regent finally agreed to give the queen 5000 talers every year, and the queen no longer participated in the business.

The money will be handed over to the queen by the Austrian ambassador on New Year’s Day every year, but the ranch will not be able to harvest a large amount of the queen’s expectation until autumn. It is very reasonable and definitely not the cause of malicious delay. The regency can only give her until Easter The forward draft can only be withdrawn later.

The Fugger family has given the queen a discount, otherwise the half-year discount will be more than 3%.

“Yeah, so it’s not 5000 talers, it’s 4850 talers.” The queen’s draft is 5000 talers, but it is not a cash draft, but a forward draft that has not yet expired. “Damn Ladislaus, And Wood is also unreasonable. You shouldn’t let Maxime even sell the national debt. Just let you go for such undesirable things.”

The queen was so angry that this damn regent not only cheated her money, but also caused her to expose her partial son.

“Hmph!” Anna Princess was furious. Neither she nor Maxime even sold many low-interest national debt. The Queen’s 4850 talers were enough to make Maxime overwhelm her, “I knew you were patriarchal. I like the big brother!”

“Nothing, absolutely nothing!” The queen repeatedly denied, and then explained, “It’s just because the low-interest national debt is going to fail. Maximilian will become the emperor in the future. It is very important for him to maintain his prestige. .”

“What does it mean to fail, Wood will definitely find investors.” Anna Princess roared.

The queen looked helpless at her daughter in the Qing (春chūn) period, but she still looked good on her son.

“Anna is right, it will definitely succeed this time.” The emperor came out at this time, “Anna, I bought your national debt.”

The queen felt very uncomfortable in her heart. She used to be Anna herself. As her daughter grew up, when the emperor called Anna, she was called a daughter.

And he also gave his private money to his daughter!

“Your Majesty, Wood said that your private savings should be used at a more critical time. Wood has arranged the treasury debt.” Anna did not want father’s private money.

“Now that the pope has changed, Wood can’t help it.” The emperor was helpless, and his private money did not have 1,000,000, but he drained all the liquidity and mortgaged a little treasure, and he could still get it from the Fugger Textile Association. I borrowed hundreds of thousands.

“Wood has a way.” Anna Princess said confidently, “As long as father writes a letter to the true pope on behalf of His Royal Highness Cortés, so that he can turn into death, Knight will continue to play for you and Spain. Sell ​​the national debt.”

“Hmph!” Hearing this, the emperor was furious, and turned black to his baby girl.

Chapter 724

:

The atmosphere in the Imperial Palace was suddenly very depressed. The good father, who was about to spend more than 200,000 talers’ private money, suddenly found that his little vest did not hurt people at all.

“Anna, how do you think of this uncultivated Barbarian!” The queen knew that Cortez was the emperor’s most unpleasant name, so she hurriedly rounded off her, “My dear, don’t be angry. Anna is kind, and it’s all Wood’s bad Guy, don’t care about anything for the money!”

Cortez is indeed rich, but he scolded the emperor to his face, saying that I was the one who gave you more provinces than your father and mother to give you the city. You must respect me. After this, the emperor only threw him to the Pyrenees mountain Grasping game in the range, to be honest, you can’t count the narrow minded, believe oneself infallible monarch.

But Wood needs better allies to destroy the ancient demons, so he must be required to a higher standard. Of course, Wood is not as ironic as Cortez, and Swordsman in the countryside corrupted the emperor’s daughter first.

“Your Majesty, if His Royal Highness Cortes can be converted into death Knight and continue to work for you and Spain, he is willing to use all of his property to buy this 3% interest national debt.” Anna Princess said this. Very powerful, but even more powerful is Cortez’s decision, “He has sold all the property he bought in the country, and can buy 31 to 320,000 talers of national debt. Of course, he will have nothing and become a death Knight. The cost of Your Majesty needs to be paid from the portion of the national debt sold.”

Cortez has exhausted everything. Of course, a considerable part of it is sold to the Marquis Marina Li. Otherwise, if you sell that many real estate in a hurry, you will lose a lot of price. Even so, many real estates are also sold at 7 20% off. Deducted.

The marquise now has almost no cash. Of course, Cortez and her real estate together are still a lot. The old lady wants to marry his son and wife, so she won’t all be allowed to stay peacefully in the mountains and guard fortresses. old fogey waves.

In order to win the emperor’s trust, Cortes did not keep any property there when he left the new world, which is one reason why he was so angry after returning to the old world and not being reused.

Although based on Wood’s understanding of history, it’s good for a de facto warlord like him to gain personal freedom after giving up the separatist regime. Not only is it for his own use after gaining power, but he at first attacked the Aztec Empire. The issue of authorization was very controversial. It was not completely legal and was pursued. It was just that the recovery force sent by the governor of Cuba was defeated by him and returned to it.

So the emperor is really pretty good.

Of course, it is understandable that Cortes was extremely irritable after returning to the mainland. The warlords who are willing to give up their separatist rule before the end of the mountain are always idealists.

What Wood has to do is to resolve the contradiction between the two of them, to stimulate their power to seize happiness.

This is possible, because neither the emperor nor Cortez are bad people, but it is definitely not easy to handle.

“Which nobles bought Cortez’s property at this time?” the queen fiercely said fiercely, “I don’t want to buy one by one national debt, they actually have money!”

“Don’t talk nonsense!” Of course the emperor could not check this.

“They will regret it in the future!” Anna Princess said in a confident tone, “It’s better not to buy this national debt. In the future, the flameless furnace will belong to father, and there are some people who are most loyal to father to Spain.”

Wood actually really wants to sell the national debt to Dark Sun Church in Rome. Creditors are sometimes very cruel and terrifying to the debtors. But for strong debtors like Wood and Spain, the creditors are their most reliable friends. With 300,000 taler low-interest national debt, the “fireless furnace” has locked in several teams of extremely powerful adventurers.

“Ai, the really elected Pope really pitted Wood and us.” Maximilian was helpless. “In fact, we could have borrowed a debt with an annual interest rate of eleven or ten.”

“Can’t we raise the interest rate again now?” the queen asked.

“That will lose things other than interest rates, and if you can’t sell low-interest debts, it will hurt your prestige.” Anna Princess said that the emperor has been worried about things. Raising interest rates is not strictly a go back on one’s. word, it’s just a bit of a face, but for today’s Habsburg family, prestige is indeed the most important thing. “Wood has already arranged it. Cortez’s strength and wealth are used to adventure on the plane. The best thing is that he is too extravagant for the Pyrenees mountain range defense, and it eliminates contradictions.”

This is indeed a way for Wood and Imperial Capital to reinforce the alliance with Rome’s Dark Sun Church. Wood needs to get another balance when cooperating with Spain, just as he does not want the emperor to borrow to develop the “fireless furnace”. Interest rates are fair, like debts of more than 10%. This fair interest rate is fair to the emperor and the nobles. It is helpful to Wood and the Republic of Crete behind him. Wood is not someone who cannot accept help at all. Help is to help, not equated with charity.

However, if help is excessive, it is easy to slip to charity, and this boundary is very unclear. Wood is determined not to test where the boundary is, and to give back to the emperor with his own strength as much as possible. Obtaining low-interest loans is one of them.
