Start 1861: I just inherited the Dutch throne

Chapter 815 Central Reserve Bank

“The Netherlands is currently facing the pressing pressure of Britain and France, and it’s time to counterattack with real force.

Militarily, we in the Netherlands are never afraid of anyone.”

“In terms of allies, the Netherlands has Sweden, Denmark, the Kingdom of Siam, Chile, Bolivia, Peru, Ecuador, Venezuela, Colombia, Greece, Spain, etc. On the torch, it also has the three countries of the Central American Federation, and its partners include the Qing Dynasty, Goryeo, Tsarist Russia, the United States, and even There are also Germany, Austria-Hungary, the United States, etc. who have no objection to the Netherlands. Our alliance system is spread all over the world. I don’t know why the Netherlands is considered to lose when facing the United Kingdom, but I can clearly tell everyone here Everyone, the Netherlands will dominate the Far Southeast, surrounded by Dutch amusement parks. Europe is just a stage for the Netherlands, not a dragon's den and a tiger's den."

William IV's powerful words made everyone's blood boil, including Edmund Rothschild and Nat Wallenberg.

Edmond secretly said: "This is the style of a monarch. Napoleon III was frightened by the Germany led by Bismarck and lost his courage. I have not heard such a declaration for many years."

Nat secretly thought: "Sweden is shrinking in Northern Europe and is incompatible with the world. The cold there makes all Swedes less impatient. It is right, but it also makes them less ambitious to expand their influence. My father is right to ask me to come here." Yes, it seems that in the future, in addition to continuing to consolidate the influence of the Stockholm base camp, the Wallenberg family should also invest more energy in the Kingdom of the Netherlands to expand Wallenberg's world-class scale in the world."

The two people's thoughts were just one of them, and everyone was moved by William IV's words.

At this time, William IV stated his purpose: "I want to establish a national central bank in the Netherlands."

As these words fell, the whole room suddenly became quiet.

Central Bank of China!
A sword of Dalmos hanging over the heads of all bank and financial workers?
Did William IV want to take action against capitalists, bankers, financiers and other uncontrolled people?

Those present here are all top figures in the financial world. They are often used to investing freely. If they agree to William IV now, then their freedom will be gone in the future. Is that still them?
Therefore, William IV's request made everyone, including the presidents of major consortiums, look fearful.

Jules Danetang looked at His Majesty William IV with some confusion.

I don’t understand why His Majesty suddenly wants to come here. You must know that although the Netherlands is a good financial country, financiers are also human beings and their ideas are different.

Isn't His Majesty afraid that the Wallenberg family of Stockholm Bank will not be willing to accept management and will switch to another country after returning?
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look at Nat Wallenberg next to him.

But to his surprise, he found that everyone else was looking at Nat.But the person Nat Wallenberg was looking at was the stranger on William IV's right, Emond Rothschild, whom Jules Dunedon knew.

Jules Danetang said secretly: "It seems that the eldest son of Wallenberg knows Emond. Then, it seems that Wallenberg, the heir, is ready to see the attitude of the Rothschild family."

As Jules and Danetang looked at Emond, others naturally looked at him as well.

At this moment, Senator Sackham suddenly stood up, pointed at Emond and introduced: "You may not know, this gentleman is from Paris."

Paris?

Others who did not know Emond's identity were puzzled that a Parisian should appear here.

But considering that this person was invited by His Majesty, then this Parisian is definitely trustworthy, and His Majesty will not say what he just said in front of him.However, this person is very handsome. What is his status in Paris? If he were younger, he would not be so arrogant just now, but if he is older, it seems that he will not be Napoleon III. The crown prince is still young now.

Other sons of the prime minister and the like did not know how to enjoy the treatment just now.

None of them could guess why William IV made the other party a guest of honor at this meeting.

Thinking of this, I am still waiting for Representative Sackham's answer.

"Let me tell you, his name is Edmond."

Seeing everyone looking at him in sudden awakening, William IV smiled and said, "Yes, just as you guessed, he comes from the Rothschild family and is now the patriarch of the Rothschild family."

The Rothschild family!
Emond Rothschild!
God, it turned out to be him!
Even if he appears here, has the Rothschild family secretly defected to the Netherlands?
Everyone looked at William IV in surprise.

If the Rothschild family secretly defected to the Netherlands, then with the support of this giant that has been rampant in the European financial world for many years, the Netherlands would be able to obtain unimaginable huge resources when facing Britain and France. , you can have more tools in the toolbox.

Thinking of this, they all understood that William IV was indifferent to the British provocations in the past two years. He responded without changing his expression.

Many people thought that this was a push forward, but everyone was wrong. It turned out that His Majesty had already made other moves secretly, and the Wallenberg family's surrender had surprised them.

After all, with the strength of the Wallen family in Sweden, the Swedish royal family can only be ignored.

His participation ensured that Sweden remained on the side of the Netherlands.

And now that the Rothschild family has joined, the financial hegemony of the five major financial capitals in Europe, London, Vienna, Paris, Berlin, and Naples, will become one of the powers that the Netherlands secretly appropriates.This is definitely a windfall for the Netherlands.

Therefore, the appearance of this Emond is definitely a big event that shocks and surprises the middle-aged people here.

After they calmed down, they suddenly discovered a problem. Since they had invested in it secretly, why did it come out in front of them now? Aren't they afraid of being followed by those countries?
Then, everyone thought of an embarrassing question. The goal mentioned by William IV just now was to establish the Central Bank of the Netherlands.

I and others were very resistant in their hearts. At that time, many people even wanted to stand up and oppose it directly.

But now that Edmond's identity was deliberately "revealed", they were suddenly unable to speak.

Even the Rothschild family did not object, and the same was true for the Wallenberg family. People in the Cao camp who had a heart for Han supported it. How could they, local financiers from the Netherlands, rebel against heaven?
