3118 Where did the money go?

Shimazu Dairo's problem belongs to a very large problem group, which cannot be explained clearly in one sentence or two sentences. The depth of water here is bottomless.

The early colonial empires of Spain and Portugal had their first pot of gold in the era of the Great Geographic Discovery, but they did not seize this rare historical opportunity and eventually became a third-rate country.

Where exactly is the problem? Is it because of the unlimited robbery of British and French privateer fleets? Or is it because of the trade deficit of the Industrial Revolution?

All these factors are all, but they are not comprehensive. If you want to explain them thoroughly, Ryuma Sakamoto does not have this ability, let alone this time!

After pondering for a moment, Ryuma Sakamoto smiled bitterly and said, "What you said should be the same. It should replace Spain and Portugal's first colonial empires, Britain, France and the Netherlands. Among them, the Netherlands retreated, Britain was the dominant one, and France could also support it..."

"In theory, the money of the Spanish and Portuguese has been in the pockets of Britain and France... So the head of state has always said that the French are quite rich, and the money is too much for you to imagine!"

Longma Jun scratched his head and said helplessly, "British leaves two-thirds? France leaves one-third? I guessed it randomly, there is no evidence to prove it, I think it's almost the same..."

Hiss... Everyone present took a breath of air conditioning, "One-third? 800,000 kilograms of gold? 900 million taels of silver? In the hands of the French?"

Ryuma Sakamoto was also stunned, and the number scared him. "It shouldn't be that much, right? But... But the head of state said with certainty that there was only so much gold and silver flowing into Europe in South America..."

"Maybe... maybe there will be so many! Forget it, why do you think about this? The ending work of this battle has not been completed yet. How can you drool each one?"

"Repair the telegram line immediately and report good news to the head of state! Why are you all around me..."

Cai Mao and Ryuma Sakamoto bombed all these drooling men. In the hall on the second floor of the Governor's Mansion, there were only two of them left, and outside the door were guards with live ammunition!

"Longma Jun, please tell me the truth. This time the head of state defeated France, how much war compensation can we get in the end?"

"Since I joined the Grand Parliament, I have heard more and more reports on people's livelihood. Our Chinese have indeed won consecutive victories in recent years, but internal funds have been drained!"

"A lot of data are not dared to be released to the outside world. Once it is released, our entire Asian market will collapse! Rich men are hard for men without money!"

"Everyone says that there will be war reparations after winning the battle, but Tsarist Russia has been negotiating for so long and there is no progress. The agenda has been put on hold..."

"I'm really scared. If I can't get money from the French, we Chinese will really not be able to fill the hole!"

"The war bonds issued are now as high as 70 million yuan, and the over-issued banknotes are even more of a black hole... I... I don't dare to sleep now!"

Ryuma Sakamoto sighed, "I know your parliament is difficult, but no matter how difficult it is, I have to hold on... I don't know how much money can be knocked out in France. Anyway, the head of state said that it will definitely solve our financial crisis. I think it should be fine if I knock out 100 million..."

"One hundred million? Golden francs? That's barely enough... But you said just now that France is so rich, and one-third of the wealth that Spain plundered from South America has reached their homeland..."

"That's one-third, more than 800,000 kilograms of gold... more than 900 million taels of silver..." Cai Mao's eyes were blue, and he was just a few numbers in his mind.

Ryuma Sakamoto said with a wry smile, "You just listen to me to the upper half, but the head of state actually has the lower half. The wealth of human society is not so simple to circulate!"

"The Spanish snatched them from America and then snatched them from Britain and France, and the money was lying honestly in the treasury?"

"It would be great if it was that simple! This is a capitalist world. When European countries use laws to determine the rights of capital... money already has its own life!"

"Will Europe plundered wealth from the world really sleep in a warehouse in a certain country? This perception itself is wrong!"

"In fact, what I just mentioned is the gold and silver plundered from North and South America, have long been integrated into an independent capital world. This world has no borders at all, and money will not recognize anyone as its master!"

"Money will only run along its own laws! This is a world that is transcendent and boundless, and it is omnipresent and omnipotent!"

"He may be in the safe of the French usury loan maker, or in the cash box where Boss Mi bought rice, or rush into the investment check of the Tanggu Industrial Special Zone..."

"These capitals have long had their own souls. You can think of them as gods, and even more like ghosts... As long as you understand their tempers and nature, you can use many means to gather them by your side and use them for your own use!"

"Hey... don't ask me how to use it specifically. Xiao Letian is Hidden Dragon, I'm not!" Sakamoto Ryuma, the wine monk, took out a silver wine pot from his arms and took a nice sip.

"I am only responsible for following the head of state, and I don't care about anything else...ah, good wine!"

Looking through the naked reliefs of European angels on the silver wine pot, Ryuma Sakamoto said quietly, "Are you guessing... does this silver wine pot made in Europe two hundred years ago use silver from South America?"

"Maybe... maybe there are several Inca natives who died in vain in the silver ingot that cast this wine pot!"

Cai Mao looked at Ryuma Sakamoto's expression and suddenly had a cold war, "So... so perverted! I'll go to the telegraph room, stay by yourself!"

Just as Cai Mao walked to the door, suddenly noisy footsteps came from outside, followed by countless people's angry roars, "General! General! Seven thousand Chinese prisoners have been found and rescued..."

"But...but...you go and have a look! Fuck...this group of bastards must be killed without leaving any!"

The city of Manila has fallen into the hands of the Chinese army. The prisoner-of-war camp, which has been armed with resistance to protect itself since last night, finally waited for the dawn.

Since the battle last night, riots have occurred in five large temporary prisoners of war camps on the outskirts of the city. Members of the Chinese gang who took advantage of the chaos to attack rushed to the prisoners of war camps and organized all the young and powerful who could fight to resist the attack of the Spanish.

The Spaniards have always tried to use Chinese prisoners as flesh shields. It is precisely because of the safety of these hostages that the Chinese army chose to raid at night so that the enemy could not prepare.

In the chaotic night, the pressure on the northern front became increasingly greater, and General Enmu continued to increase troops to the north, so the troops in the prisoner-of-war camp were weakened.

The seven thousand prisoners of war took this opportunity to quickly organize, occupy the prisoner camp and kill the guards, and then guard the camp with the gang members who raided in.

Enm could not send out regular troops at all, so he could only send some indigenous people here to try to massacre prisoners of war, but with the Chinese's strong resistance, all prisoners of war camps became bunkers for the Chinese!
