Chapter 63 Financing

10,000 tons, an average of 348 Teller silver coins per ton. French businessmen with a letter with Wendir's letter arrived in Berlin with a large number of funds to pay for the delivery.

For a few days, the Prussian royal treasury was Taller with 3.48 million more.

Of course, the French people are not two hundred and five who come to send money. It must be a favorable map that allows them to acquire Prussian food by half more than usual.

The fact is the same. The price of food in the low land of Germany is several times higher than in previous years, and it has raised to a high price of 500 tons of one ton. In the usual year, 1 ton of grains are not worth it.

Between Le, if it is a long time, the kingdom of Poland is still healthy, and the price of food is lower. However, although most of the places this year, the wind and rain are smooth, but there are also food to reduce production.

The problem is here. Most of the areas of harvests are unwell to plant grain, and they have always been the two major grain exporters who have replaced Poland's grain exports. Saxon and Prussia died this year.

Grain production capacity also has to pay nearly 10,000 tons to repay the debt. Prussia is a lot. Although the Potsdam region still has made Saxon a few days, and the East has suffered a lot of losses because the Swedes and Austria have started to war, but

People are still there, but because Prussia started war with Sweden, Prussian's food could not use the cheap transportation cost of sea ships through the sea road to transport food.

Poland, a large granary output in Lwarba, has dropped straight. When it can be restored to production capacity, it is still unknown. In the fall of 1718, there was a major event that affects food prices. First of all, France raised the grain tariffs on the Roman Empire.

Full of receipt. But the French improvement of tariffs is not just Rome, and there are many adjustments in the surrounding countries. Even if you know the price competition of Prussia and Saxon, the tariffs are raised.

force.

However, in 1719, the seemingly ridiculous tariffs became the barriers to make the egg pain in the lowlands of Germany's lowlands this year. Saxon and Prussia, one was to sell without food, and the other could not be transported out.

If you want to survive this year, you have to buy food from France to break the fortune.

Don't want to break the fortune and disaster, hold it hard.

Very new ideas, but it is a bit unrealistic. The low -land regions of Germany have always been the heavy place of economic prosperity, and the population is the densely dense place in the German land. Just the small slap and large place, which is not much larger than Saxon.

At least the population of no less than 3 million people. How can you let a place where even the annual output does not live 500,000 people can survive for a year.

Coupled with the news of the French Army's pressure, it seems that it has confirmed that France is going to launch a war, and the price of grain prices in the low land of Germany is rising immediately.

Moreover, the soaring food prices and the waves of Wendir and Association of Association. It didn't take long, and amazing news on the market. A fire broke out in the grain storage warehouse in Brussels.

Therefore, if there is no food input this year, the news of the local grain storage warehouse will be volatile. Many chambers of commerce will hung the signboards of "without flour today today" in the night.

Stopping the next day, even if the price of selling bread is still doubled, it has doubled.

On the morning of the third day after the grain storage warehouse was burned, the situation became more serious. People who bought bread lined up in long lines to buy. More and more bakeries were sold out. By the afternoon of the fourth day, the price of grain in Brussels reached

The highest level in history, 10 pounds of flour is 4 thalers. It is said that a wealthy local businessman is charging a high price of 700 thalers per ton of grain.

"But why would the French come to buy wheat from us, and why don't we do this business of selling wheat to the Netherlands, which can make a lot of money." Feletelia was in the corridor of her palace.

When she mentioned this to me, she couldn't help but swallow her saliva. It seemed that she also knew that when she was not a family member, she didn't know that firewood, wheat, oil, and salt were expensive.

"First of all, transportation costs will be a big problem. The cost of cereal grains will increase by 10% every 150 kilometers. From Prussia to the Netherlands, it is more than 400 kilometers in total. We don't need to organize manpower and we don't need to

Responsible for the transportation, the French will organize the rest. We can save a lot of energy. After all, we still have the Swedes to fight. And do you think the Austrians will be indifferent? So, just to get 3.48 million towers

Well, I'm very satisfied."

"Then why don't we sell all the grain to the French together? That's a lot of money." Feletelia is still thinking about the 7,000 tons of grain we have left.

I asked: "I said that we still have Swedes to fight, and I sold all 10,000 tons of grain to the French. Do you think these French people will immediately transport the grain to the Netherlands by land to sell it?"

Feletelia said with certainty: "I don't think so. We should wait until the price of food is higher before selling it."

"If I were a Frenchman, I would not only wait, but I would also do something useful during this time, such as forcing the Swedes to give up the sea route through pressure from the French government."

Feletelia was surprised: "You mean to force Sweden to suspend the war against us through French pressure?"

"Not just France, but also the Netherlands, and the Swedes themselves. High food prices will make all regions in urgent need of food become our allies." I smiled.

"But, will the French do this? You know, they are profitable because Sweden blocked the Baltic Sea, preventing our food from being shipped out, which caused the price of food to rise. They can continue to block the Baltic Sea.

, and then use the French’s own grain to sell it to the Netherlands.” Feletelia pointed out the flaw in my attempt.

"This goes back to the question you asked before. Why do the French buy grain from Prussia? Because a lot of grain in northern France has been hoarded by my fiancée and some big nobles. The price of grain in northern France will rise.

The grain has risen to the point where you can’t make any money with the addition of tariffs. The reason why we sell grain so cheaply to some French people is actually part of the agreement. Without us, they can’t make any money.

Without them, we wouldn’t be able to make money.”

"So will the grain from northern France be sold to the Netherlands? How much will it be?" Feletelia asked.

"I don't know the exact number, but it shouldn't be as much as Prussia. After all, a lot of the grain grown in many farmland areas in northern France is used to feed war horses. However, what I can be sure of is that my fiancée has the

Grain will not be dumped into the Netherlands. Too much grain circulating on the market will drive down prices."

"Where will it be?"

"Paris."

"Then what do you plan to do with the rest of our food?"

"Keep it to seduce the Swedes."

There is no shortage of great fortunes in this world, Romans, Needland people, and Swedes. Needland is also a plain area.

The Via Peninsula is different. In the snowy and snowy places, fishing can fill the stomach. In previous years, it was even more needed to import food like Necessland.

With the temptation of getting rich, Association can easily hook many members of the Swedish parliament for Prussia. At the same time, the Needland people who can't stand the price of high grain are also trying to work hard to relieve Sweden

The state of war with Prussia.

The city government of Neidland paid the shipping fee, Prussia exported a total of 6,000 tons at a price of 300 talles.

Of course, the Needland people are not stupid enough to transport all the food back through land. The transportation fee of up to 100 tales alone makes people daunting.

As a result, Brury, the port city of Nidland, took the lead in unite a series of port cities in Hong Kong to stop imported iron ore, animal skin, honey, logs, fats, and basically cutting the income of Swedish in November.

Although the cities such as Brussels, Hound, Amsterdam, and Rotterdam did not stop the trade with Sweden immediately, they also named the tax of war compensation tax through new taxes.

Where Swedes.

These methods are undoubtedly forcing the Kingdom of Sweden to let Kaihai Road. The internal complaints of King Carl 12, who have brought them into such a point, have made great complaints. Calle twelve, who was originally prestigious, couldn't help it.

Members of Congress. Some members even claimed that God no longer bless the king, but now Carl twelve is not a 25th. Calle twelve war is very powerful, but the governing the country is a bit painful. In the face of revenue

In the dilemma, he added a new tax and passed it on to the noble head. In the Swedish Parliament, a large number of nobles opposed it. For this reason, there were several aristocratic members of the Calle twelve.

However, in order to relieve the intensification of conflicts within Sweden, they will not send troops in a short time.

At the same time, the food prices of Neidland also skyrocketed to 800 Teller, and the French spent money to organize people to transport food in Prussia.

To the high price of 650-770.

After half a month, not only did Saxon make this lively, even France, which was far away from Paris, mobilized manpower and material resources to transport a large amount of food to Galle in the port of northern France, trying to sell it to Nidland to make money.

People are blind obedience. When everyone knows that they can sell food to Nidland and Japan Delan to make a lot of money, it is natural to become. But the good times are not long.

It is said that in private, the merchant ship that the royal family is responsible for selling food to Nidland by smuggling and earning huge profits.

It is also the Saxon people who are making money, but they are more painful. August II can not guarantee the rations of the leaders. They also export a lot of food to Japan and Austria.

When they did these things, they asked the Prussians to sell them to the Neidlanders generously at a price of 280. Fleetelia was forced to sell 1,000 tons.

After the manipulation and impact of the surrounding forces, for a month, Nideland's grain was pressed to 650 Tale, and the price of the grain of Ridland was pressed to 600.

After Christmas in 1719, Austria and Saxon, which exported grain crazy, met some trouble, and their own food prices also rose. So, after making money from the Saxon and Austrians, it was our turn to earn to make money.

Their money.

After a month of sales statistics, East Saxon bought 500 tons of wheat, De Taller 170,000, 400 tons of food in Dresden, 120,000 in Darlka, 1100 tons of Boji Maiya buying food

170,000, a total of 660,000, deducting costs and transportation costs, net profit of 2007,000.

Prussia's grain with national debt is basically exhausted, but it has also been successfully exchanged for more than 5.5 million Taller's silver money, deducting more than 3 million talles, and profit of nearly 2.5 million.

Coupled with the 1.9 million money from the money in front, the Prussian Kingdom State Treasury finally had more than 75 million Taller's full funds.

The grains that are shot are concentrated through national debt. As the largest landlord of the Kingdom of Prussia, the landlord of the female Wenqing has a lot of food in the house.
