Queen Victoria can be said to be a grown-up person, so she would not believe the nonsense between Xiao Letian and Princess Sissi. If there is no equality, it can only mean that these two people are fooling each other.

Sure enough, Princess Sissi's face turned slightly red, "You can't hide anything from Her Majesty the Queen. There are indeed a few things. Xiao Letian asked you..."

"Your Majesty, you must also measure the head of state's difficulties. For this French-Popular War, Xiao Letian has squeezed the originally unreplenished Chinese people to the height of the sky..."

"Wait? What does this mean? How come the sky is three feet tall?" The crown prince obviously never stopped this oriental proverb.

Princess Sissi smiled and said, "This is an ancient joke in China. In ancient China, corrupt officials plundered people's wealth and was called scraping the land, which means scraping away the most fertile part of the land and turning it into her own..."

"So people describe officials as greedy, saying that the places where they governed were three feet high. Isn't this mean that he scraped the earth three feet thick?"

So that's it, the crown prince and the queen both looked suddenly enlightened, "You continue talking!"

"Your Majesty, because the Chinese people's foundation is too weak, Xiao Letian can be said to be struggling every step and his finances are in a great crisis!"

"Before the Franco-Prussian War, he fought a tragic Far East War, and before the Far East War, there was a maritime conflict with France... How to resolve military expenditure? It's not just by tax collection and civil dismantling!"

"The Chinese finances are already in a difficult situation. He must bring a large amount of cash back to Asia in order to stabilize the currency market..."

"Xiao Letian has indeed recognized the control of the gold of my British Empire. This time he will never bring any gold back to Asia... But the head of state hopes to exchange 30 to 40 million taels of silver and return to Asia!"

"There is no other meaning. With these tens of millions of physical silver, his rule will stabilize suddenly. When the people's hearts are stable, he will be able to govern the country with peace of mind..."

"Maintaining a Chinese who is stable in politics is very beneficial to our British Empire. After all, the pace of Tsarist Russia's expansion in the east and the United States' ambition for the Pacific... all require a stable Chinese to restrict and balance!"

"So, I hope the Queen can open the silver exchange business of the City of London to the Chinese... Xiao Lotte wants to bring a sum of silver back to Asia!"

After hearing this condition, the queen and the crown prince both breathed a sigh of relief. The silver standard is a unique currency system in Asia and is completely different from Europe.

Silver is valuable in Europe but not as stable as gold. Moreover, after industrialization, the amount of silver mining is increasing year by year. The exchange of silver cannot actually affect the dominance of Britain at all.

But even if the politician agrees in his heart, he will have to look like he looks like he is constipated, as if he is reluctant!

"Will China lack silver? As far as I know, Xiao Letian bought a lot of silver mines from Mexico and South America! Isn't it enough for him to use..."

"Your Majesty, you should know the truth better than me. If the silver ore purchased from the market is needed to turn it into currency, it will take a series of processes..."

"This is a long-lasting thing, and what Xiao Letian wants is to quickly stabilize people's hearts... This requires tens of millions of taels of silver from Europe at once!"

"This visual impact can shut up all opposition forces in an instant. What he wants is the effect of the Chinese people being dumbfounded!"

"And now, except for the European currency market, which country can propose tens of millions of taels of physical silver at once, does that other country have this strength?"

"In Europe, only the City of London has the right to decide! Don't the City of London still listen to you?"

"It's just silver, how could the British Empire care about this little gadget..."

She is really an outgoing girl. This woman who steals a man has put in great effort for the outside man, and has never pleased anyone so much for the princess of the Austro-Hungarian Empire.

Xiao Letian really conquered the princess' heart. Princess Sissi's mouth was like a stuffed honey, and she couldn't find the queen!

Tens of millions of taels of silver were nothing to the British Empire. The queen finally waved her hand, "I don't have to bother me about this kind of thing. Silver is an industrial product of free trade. He can exchange as much as he likes. It's not a rare thing!"

The queen's confidence actually comes from the overall development of human mining technology in the late industrial revolution!

In the early days of the Age of Discovery, European colonists directly snatched bloody gold and silverware, especially the barbaric European robbers in South America who directly snatched gold and silver products from the indigenous peoples.

At this time, colonial rule was actually the most primitive plundering economy, but as the wealth of the colonies was plundered, the colonists began a second colonial economy, which was the rough mining and planting model.

In South America, the Spaniards discovered the world's largest silver mine, Potosi Silver Capital!

This city, born from the silver mine, produces half of the world's production of silver, and the direct consequence is that the international silver price plummets.

From the late Ming Dynasty to the middle of the Qing Dynasty, unless the war is affected by China, silver will be a slow inflation process during the peace period. The fundamental reason is that it is in South America and Europe!

The global silver supply has increased several times, and China's goods are actually exchanged for increasingly cheaper silver, which indirectly gave birth to the British gold standard system.

The Queen doesn't care about the outflow of silver at all. In the eyes of Europeans, silver is just a more expensive industrial heavy metal at this moment!

However, for the emerging Chinese, silver is the base currency that can stabilize the economy. Gold cannot hold on to it, so the bottom line of silver must be kept!

As long as the queen lets go, everything will be easy to handle. British politics is not all hated by the Chinese, and politicians are also divided into the right and left. As long as the queen does not interfere with Xiao Letian, she can easily make profits in the chaos.

Being able to obtain the free trade rights of global silver is already a big gift package!

Xiao Letian's conditions were not just a silver trade right. Princess Sissi poured a cup of tea for the queen and spoke again.

"Your Majesty, I still have some private matters to trouble you... Of course, it also concerns some requests from the Head of State!"

The Queen was obviously in a good mood today. She smiled and said, "Tell me, let's see how much more things our little princess has to bother me..."

"Your Majesty, you know that I have a dodo nature reserve in Mauritius... Of course, that's also Xiao Lotte's investment!"

"The land rights transfer has been completed long ago, and the first batch of Chinese immigrants have arrived and started to build residential areas... But during this development process, a big problem has been encountered!"
