War Palace and Knee Pillow, Austria’s Destiny

Trade surplus is the pursuit of many countries, but bigger is not always better.

The most direct impact is that it will lead to the deterioration of international relations. That's right, all the money has been taken away by one party, what about the other countries in the alliance?

This is not a good thing for Austria, so Franz wants to take this opportunity to balance the balance of payments and spread inflationary pressure throughout Central Europe.

In this way, the inflationary pressure will be much smaller. If Austria is the only country to bear it, it will be a very terrible situation.

In fact, for most of the nineteenth century, countries were in a state of deflation.

However, Austria's expected banknotes have alleviated this situation to a certain extent. At this time, the spread of inflation to surrounding countries has also promoted the prosperity of the entire Central European economy.

While representatives from various countries were chatting happily in the temporary headquarters in Vienna, the price of expected banknotes on the black market had fallen below 0.4.

But this is nothing to ordinary Austrians. They will not sell their hard-earned money at a discount, and they do not know that the black market exists.

The slight increase in commodity prices was not obvious, and as goods from the German states entered the Austrian market, prices soon returned to their original state.

(Those hoarders can’t stand it any longer.)

Civilians enjoyed the welfare of the country and the glory of previous victories (the Luxembourg crisis), but they did not know what was happening.

The doomsday predicted by the rich did not come, and trade between Austria and other states continued.

However, many bankers lined up to jump into the Danube River, which benefited the ferocious freshwater fish in the Danube River.

There are actually many ferocious freshwater fish in the Danube River, such as the Salmon, also known as the "King of the Sea". It is fast, has many teeth, and has a ferocious temperament. However, there are few records of hurting people, mainly because this fish likes to wander in deep water areas. Little interaction with humans.

Moreover, people usually see the Salmon on the dining table. Because it grows quickly and has delicious meat, it is eaten as a protected animal.

With such a commotion, within the next five years, there will be almost no pressure on the exchange of expected banknotes. Because the largest buyer of prospective banknotes in the black market is Franz.

Vienna, Schönbrunn Palace.

The Franz family was having a dinner together, and the main course was a four-meter-long salmon.

In order to cook this fish, a total of three chefs were employed, five kilograms of various spices were used, and a specially built pot was used.

A fish weighing more than 100 kilograms cannot be eaten by Franz's family alone. As a result, everyone who saw it took part, and the chef, maid in charge of cooking, and the guard on duty all praised the taste of the fish.

Franz also took a bite and it tasted really delicious.

At the same time, the Lion King's Pride Hotel.

Solomon looked at the sky in confusion and let out a sigh of relief. Vienna has always been so noisy recently, the famous music played by wandering entertainers is so harsh, and the happy people in the streets and alleys seem to be laughing at him.

Looking at the golden prawns fried in front of him, Solomon had no appetite at all.

"Why? This country has not fallen yet"

Turn Street, Grizzly Inn.

Soros only drank some water, and his face looked very bad. Jean Fiona even thought he was sick, but Soros just waved his hand.

"We didn't get nothing this time. At least we bought this hotel. I think the price of this hotel will double in a few years."

Fiona didn't know how to persuade her husband who refused to admit defeat, so she could only nodded. To be honest, tens of thousands of florins won't affect them much, but it is indeed a missed opportunity.

If I had been able to buy at the bottom when I expected the currency to hit the bottom, I would have made a lot of money.

There was no smoke in this battle, and few people even knew about it, but its brutality was no less brutal than any previous war in which the Austrian Empire had participated.

In fact, this is also a screening.

Those nobles and wealthy people who were not optimistic about Austria once again transferred their money to die-hard elements of the empire.

The transfer of social wealth is inevitably accompanied by changes in social atmosphere, and nationalism is on the rise again. They feel that the best way to unite the German nation is to let Austria unify Germany.

The secret police is the most criticized aspect of Austria, but in the eyes of nationalists it has become a necessary means to maintain "justice" and "order".

Other countries simply do not have enough power, let alone capabilities. Because other countries were simply unable to protect the German Confederation, let alone create a country where all Germans would feel safe and happy.

As a national economist, Böhm-Bawerk knew far more than ordinary people. Although he didn't know the full content, he knew that the royal family was still protecting Austria this time.

Nationalists have used all kinds of praise for Austria and the Habsburg family, but both Metternich and Franz are very wary of them, and they still need to be caught and dealt with.

The nobles strongly demanded the restoration of the Holy Roman Empire. They missed the glory of the past (the days when they were dominant) and believed that the Habsburg family could once again complete this mission.

The Austrian aristocracy has always been tied to the Habsburg family. They naturally hope that the royal family will be as powerful as possible. This will not only block the challenges of the emerging bourgeoisie, but also allow them to get a share of the pie.

Then, due to the special environment in Austria, progressive nationalists and aristocrats who wanted to reverse course united together.

Vienna, Royal Academy for Women.

The library is large, but there are not many people there. Oshio Sugione may have been the first Japanese woman to complete her studies at a Western university, but she still failed Franz's assessment.

Failure means that she is not qualified to stay by Franz's side, which is really a pity for Oshiosugine.

If anyone else in the world said she was unqualified, she would definitely be unconvinced, but only Franz convinced Oshiosugin.

But she is not completely useless. Franz plans to give Oshio Shanyin a task.

Conquer Japan.

This may not be a big deal to Franz, it may just be that he has no time or no interest.

Oshio Shanyin thought this way, and she felt that this was her fate.

The flame of revenge has never been extinguished in her chest, preferring destruction to saving her. Yamato Nadeshiko's usual behavior is just to cater to Franz's preferences.

Oshio Shanyin still remembers the miserable conditions of the villagers. They were beaten to death with iron cannons, stabbed to death with spears, beheaded, and locked in houses and burned alive.

Those images and sounds were still clear even after so many years, and she could even call those people's names.

But it doesn't matter anymore. Oshiosugin just wants to complete her mission at this moment, and she can use all means to do so, even if it means sacrificing herself.

However, Franz said that "the time has not come yet", and before that she would continue to prepare for the conquest of Japan.
