Chapter 847 Banknotes and the Flower of Democracy

The capital of the Low Republic, Antwerp.

A total of 80 members of the House of Lords, which represents the true center of power in this country, are already present.

It’s just like every day in the past six months, these well-dressed great characters always have a hard to see smile on their faces.

The street outside is bustling with people, and it seems that the normal economic order has gradually returned, but only they know that many things have become different.

During the last tulip bubble, and the subsequent wave of bankruptcies caused by “tightening money”, a large number of high-quality assets across the country: mines, plantations, shipyards, factories, trading companies. bargain.

Especially under the leadership of Alwin, the Tulip Alliance, which had been prepared for a long time, gnawed the biggest piece of fat.

Seeing the opportunity, Faretis even ate the largest Halliburton Iron Company in the lowlands at a price almost equivalent to one-twentieth of the original price.

The subsequent value of these properties will never be less than the wealth that Alwin harvested directly from the lowlands.

Advocating bubbles, short selling strongly, and extreme bargain hunting. Alwin’s whole set of methods really taught them a good lesson.

The only thing that is fortunate is that the big bankers and big capitalists of “Eye of Wealth” have industries all over the country, and they are all powerful multinational capitals.

Although there was a big blood loss in the financial crisis, it didn’t stop there.

The most important thing is the “credibility” that is the foundation of their life, and they have withstood the test once again. On the contrary, their savings business in various countries has gradually increased, and they have been slightly slowed down in half a year. this breath.

And whether we can fight another turnaround depends on today’s decision.

In everyone’s expectation.

The Speaker of the House of Lords, Chairman of the Executive Committee of the Netherlands Bank Group, and Saint William Orange walked briskly to the podium.

Raising his arms high, he announced the final news in a cheerful tone:

“Ladies and gentlemen, cheers, the House of Commons and the government has unanimously passed The Central Bank Act, authorizing us to establish a private central bank, and we have the sole right to issue money in the Lowlands!”

Whoosh!

The whole venue was deeply sighed in relief, as if a gust of wind was blowing, and a relaxed smile finally appeared on the faces of all the great characters.

pa! pa! pa!

Immediately, the warm applause drowned out everyone present.

It’s all because of the significance of this resolution, which is too important for them.

Since last winter, a large amount of precious metal-based wealth has been harvested in the “tulip bubble”.

The shortage of metal currency and the inconvenience in the application of alternative physical currency (cloth, grain.) have seriously affected the normal operation of the Low Countries.

This also prompted them to jump out of the traditional thinking that has lasted for thousands of years and start a new attempt, that is, to print and issue paper money by the government as a unified and standard currency for the “Lower Republic”. legal tender.

The biggest difference between this kind of paper money and the golden notes that have existed and circulated for a long time is that it is a complete government credit currency without any physical gold and silver as collateral.

Because everyone in the society needs to pay taxes to the government, and as long as the government accepts this kind of paper money as a tax payment certificate, it has the basic elements to circulate in the market.

Credit-based buying and selling allows merchants to settle their credit balances with each other on a monthly or annual basis, which will greatly reduce the inconvenience of the original transaction.

And when these private banks replace the government and master this gate, the benefits that can be gained from it are far from the previous losses in the “Tulip Bubble” that can be mentioned on equal terms!

There are no stupid people among the big bankers. They are only limited by the times and vision to make the big mistakes of the past.

This “Tulip Bubble” also provided them with a new idea, which is to take the initiative to trigger a financial crisis and harvest leeks!

It’s just a matter of themselves taking on the role of the former Alwin.

Opening the gates to release water, raising fish in ponds, tightening money, or over-issue of currency, inflation, and reasonable robbery, business without capital is not so refreshing.

As long as we have the right to issue currency, we don’t need to care who makes the law!

“Everyone, the first batch of sample coins has been made.

Now we not only have the government’s treasury backing, the great ‘God of Capital and Wealth’ will also use Endorsements by divine power!”

William Orange clapped, and his own staff delivered a portion of the yellow-green notes to each member of Parliament.

The obverse of the first note is printed: a compass with feet open and a square with an upward opening, surrounded by a pure golden eye, which is the emblem and code name of their association— “The Eye of Wealth”.

On the back is the holy emblem of the “God of Capital and Wealth”.

It looks like a sharp long sword that has been erected. At the two ends of the sword, one end is a combination of gold, land, factories, raw materials and other currencies and means of production, and the other end is countless. human beings at work.

The overall meaning is “the order of the New World”, and the name is Florin.

“Then Mr. Speaker, of course Florin can pass through the republic, but the Lowland Republic is too small after all, how can it be widely recognized internationally?”

“Yes, the currency should be linked to the corresponding commodity. Although the Lowland Republic is already the second only commodity exporting country to the ‘Tulip Union’, its influence is still not enough.”

“. ”

It is related to the great achievements of international bankers, and they cannot be prudent.

Everyone’s vision is not limited to the small place of the Low Countries, but to the entire world, not ruling out the use of their own influence to make copies in other countries for profit.

Because the real “Lowland Republic” is a “deep state”, in other words, the “Eyes of Wealth Big Capital Consortium” is the real master and ruling class of the country.

That is to say, no matter how turbulent the “Lowland Republic” is, it will not affect the strength of the “Commonwealth”.

Even if the land and population of the lowlands cease to exist, the “Commonwealth” can still find a new host to maintain the new order.

Capitalists have no motherland!

Now they have mastered all the economic lifelines of the country, including the central bank, and are the real richest group.

Among which is included industrial trust tycoons, banking and financial oligarchs, military-industrial oligarchs, investment tycoons, agricultural tycoons, business tycoons, media tycoons, etc., as well as big capitalist families who have been in the entire world for hundreds of years.

The secret of the “Lowland Republic” gaining huge influence and potential power at the very beginning of its establishment is not its system or national strength, but that the real union itself is a form of supranational organization. the ruling class.

To put it more directly, the real state power of the Low Countries exists in the form of “transnational corporations”, which are the real state sector in the Low Countries.

Just like all the bigwigs in the House of Lords here.

Private banks headed by the Netherlands Banking Group belong to the Ministry of Finance; “Caterpillar Industries” is similar to the Bureau of Industry; “Company” is similar to the Agricultural Bureau

Raytheon Military Industry itself is the Ministry of National Defense, and the institutions of higher learning headed by the Henry Merchant Academy in Reading are all private enterprises, equivalent to the Ministry of Education, for the company’s consortium to cultivate and win over the world’s talents .

Government agencies in turn are only the spokesperson and executive agencies of these “de facto departments” of interest.

Everything is for maximum profit!

“Haha, that’s a good question, here’s another proposal.

I would like to ask Mr. Strauss, president of the National Democracy Foundation, to explain to everyone. Let’s go.”

William Orange gave the podium to another, middle age person who looked harmless to humans and animals.

If Alwin was here, he would have recognized him at a glance. This was the “performer” Strauss under the command of the “God of Music and Opera”.

He bowed gracefully to the group of great characters, and then explained his next plan in a voice that seemed to be naturally seductive:

“ Our next plan is called “Flower of Freedom and Democracy”.”

The members of the Congress listened with bright eyes.

Planning is not complicated.

Next, taking advantage of the advantages of multinational organizations, they will make a high-profile claim:

Provide loans to 200,000 factories in various countries within five years; train 300,000 factory owners and financial elites; Improve the literacy rate of people in all countries; help countries train more than 100,000 excellent teachers in three years; reduce illiteracy by half in the next ten years.

The external support is mainly divided into two directions.

One is the “Golden Palm Commonwealth” in the south of the new continent, which is composed of the Nimansters, the Atrians, and the Anuma.

Of course, to provide loans to the potential stocks of the “Golden Palm Federation”, which is a vast land, but these banknotes will not be specially transported there, but will be exchanged for various equipment and materials in the Lowland Republic on the spot.

Both support the brother country and boost its own economy.

equivalent to is based on the national debts of the “Lowland Republics” and the “Golden Palm Commonwealth”, which jointly underpin the “Florin”, and let these “waste papers” break through the country at once.

The other direction is the many small countries on the source continent.

These measures all sound like great deeds for the benefit of the country and the people, and no country would refuse it.

But at the same time.

The “National Democracy Foundation” will start marching under the banner of democracy and freedom, turning newspapers, poets, singers, politicians, and students into leading parties, advocating the current civilization and prosperity of the Low Countries .

To put it bluntly, these supports are dog food and feed.

From the perspective of political ideology, economic lifeline, and cultural education, the sword is fatal.

The “Golden Palm Federation”, which has been secretly controlled, is relatively better, and will gradually become “peaceful”.

When the people of the source continent countries rejoiced and thought that they could make a fortune following this emerging commercial country, they did not know that what awaited them would be the boundless abyss.

Because when the fortress is really breached from the inside, it is when the “eye of wealth” pushes the flood of capital to sweep through everything, grasping their economic lifeline at the fastest speed, and swallowing them with endless greed. drop everything!

On the surface, everyone has a sacred vote to choose their favorite democratic leader, and then decide the fate of the country.

In order to vote, the democratic leaders, as it should be by rights, need to work hard to improve national welfare and benefit every voter after they come to power.

But.

In fact, “democracy and freedom” has nothing to do with wealth at all. The most fundamental problem is still the contradiction between limited resources and unlimited population.

“Second! It is my mission to let all nations bloom with democracy and freedom!”

“Second!”

“Second!”

Oh, freedom, how many sins are committed in your name?
