Mediterranean Hegemony Road

In 1925, the currencies of the world suffered a large-scale devaluation, and Bulgarian Lev was no exception. It was only because the government adhered to the gold standard that it did not show up.

If you look at gold as the base, Lev ’s currency has n’t changed, but Ferdinand knows that it ’s all used to flicker, and Lev has actually depreciated.

Inflation continues. From 1914 to the present, the general price level of Bulgaria has risen by 24%, and the purchasing power of the currency has been declining. This is an indisputable fact.

Over the past ten years, the total amount of gold in the world has increased by almost 50%. Under the influence of supply and demand, the total amount of currency issued worldwide has not only increased by 50%?

At least Bulgaria's money supply was more than three times that of 1914. Although gold reserves also tripled on the books, this only stabilized the international exchange rate.

The domestic inflation should still be inflated. From an economic point of view, it is the people who made the loans, and the interest on the deposit barely outperformed the inflation.

All this has been covered up in the context of Bulgaria's rapid economic development.

The public may or may not know it, but Ferdinand cannot or does not know that these problems must be solved, otherwise it will continue and the Bulgarian economy will have problems sooner or later.

"Mr. Kennedy, what do you think about the issue of domestic inflation?" Ferdinand asked

"Your Majesty, this problem is very complicated. Nowadays inflation is happening all over the world. The main cause is that the French gave up the gold standard.

Since then, the value of the franc has plummeted. Because of the devaluation of the currency, the export competitiveness of French goods has greatly increased.

Affected by French goods, prices in countries around the world are now being impacted, and inflation has spread to the world!

Fortunately, the industrial capacity of the French is not very good, otherwise inflation in the world will become more serious now. As a member of the world economic system, it is difficult for us to stand alone! Treasurer Kennedy explained

"No, even if the French dump goods to the world, they will only cause prices to fall. How can it cause prices to rise?" Ferdinand asked in confusion.

"Your Majesty, the price of raw materials on the international market has risen, and labor costs have also increased. These factors are the direct reasons for the rise in prices!" Kennedy said with some hesitation.

"Lauren, how much industrial raw materials do we buy each year? Can we find a way to change suppliers?" Ferdinand asked with concern.

This issue is very important. If the Bulgarian industrial system has not been able to shake off its reliance on overseas raw materials, the Germans' lesson is at hand, and they will have to hold their tails for a long time in the future.

"We import about 2.56 billion levs of industrial raw materials each year, of which rubber is the main source, followed by cotton.

At present, our domestic rubber and cotton production capacity is limited and cannot meet our industrial production needs! Minister of Industry Lauren Holman thought about it

"The problem with cotton is that we have begun large-scale cultivation in the colonies, and these renewable energy sources will be self-sufficient in the future.

The problem of rubber is more troublesome. The geographical environment for planting is a bit more demanding, but it can also be produced by chemical means. The Germans have set an example. They could synthesize rubber a decade ago. We have no reason to do it.

The key is rare ore, such as: tungsten ore, molybdenum ore, titanium ore, vanadium ore, zirconium ore, tantalum ore, niobium ore, lithium ore, beryllium ore, rare earth ...

Although these special industrial raw materials are not in great demand, they are indispensable minerals in industrial development! Ferdinand Zou said with a brow

"Your Majesty, these minerals are actually not a big problem. Most of the minerals can be found in our country because the amount of use is not very large. We need hundreds of tons of minerals each year, at least only a few tons.

In our strategic reserves, we have stocked enough for us to use for two or three years. Under normal circumstances, as long as our land is not lost, it is difficult to be blocked unless we become the public enemy of the world!

What can really threaten industrial production is bulk industrial raw materials. Because the demand is too large, there is no way to reserve in advance, but our gap in these things is not large. "Lauren Holman explained

Ferdinand nodded. Bulgaria is no longer the Bulgarian of the year. Due to its geographical location, it is stuck in the middle of Eurasia.

Above the huge land area, there are always some minerals that can be found. Although some rare minerals may not have high yields, at least they are not?

There cannot be a tragedy that the factory will be closed today and the factory will be shut down tomorrow. There is not enough domestic production capacity to smuggle.

Even the Germans persisted for a few years under the blockade of the Allies, and finally collapsed because of lack of food, followed by lack of bulk industrial raw materials. These rare metals were hoarded in advance, and capitalists helped smuggle. They did not do much. lack.

What Ferdinand is worried about is not smuggling, but the rising prices of raw materials. For example, the price of cotton has now doubled, so Bulgaria's textile industry is almost finished.

Another example is the rise in rubber prices, and Bulgaria's domestic automobile industry will be uncomfortable. Although it will not go bankrupt, it is certain that the profits will be greatly reduced.

"Well, then increasing the reserves of these rare minerals a part, so as to prevent the sudden rise in the price of international rare minerals, it is also a trouble for us!

At the same time, the Prime Minister urged the colonies to speed up the development of the plantations. Our domestic market is still waiting for their cotton and rubber! Ferdinand thought for a while

"Okay, Your Majesty!" Constantine replied

"Remember to do this in secret, don't let anyone discover it!" Ferdinand exhorted

Take precautions, these are not Ferdinand's blind worries, but that the British are ready to fight Bulgaria, and they will fight directly. The London government is not so crazy.

The current British Empire does not have the strength to provoke a war. If the war breaks out, the London government will be powerless in recruiting.

Now that everyone is busy making money, the idiots will only work if the country ’s economy is in a great form to fight a nationwide battle!

Looking at the two world wars, it was only after the outbreak of the capitalist world economy that the domestic crisis broke out. It is not just the will of the individual that can provoke war.

How can the British deal with Bulgaria without turning their faces?

The best choice is to provoke the contradiction between Bulgaria and neighboring countries, and then support other countries to have a war with Bulgaria, and use the war to interrupt Bulgaria's development process.

Unfortunately, this time the British couldn't find a qualified teammate, Bulgaria's expansion became conservative, and the countries bordering them did not mean to die with them.

What countries are in direct contact with Bulgaria?

The Russian Empire, the Austro-Hungarian Empire, France, Italy, Persia, and the British Empire itself.

In terms of strength, it seems that apart from France, only the British Empire went on in person. The outbreak of conflict simply cannot be aroused, and where the two sides border, there is no value at all.

No matter how confident the British are, they will not think that the two nations will fight a war of national pride for a pile of sand. A war without sufficient interests is bound to fail.

The rest of the Russian Empire is now free and can be ignored, and their opinions can be ignored on international issues for at least a decade.

In addition, Italy, Austria-Hungary, and Persia, these three and Bulgaria have conflicts of interest more or less, it is not difficult to provoke their contradictions.

It is a pity that the gap in strength is there. Even if the three are together, Bulgaria can easily beat them down.

If this happened, Ferdinand wouldn't mind sending a medal to the British. He was worried that he couldn't find a chance to expand?

These situations have been ruled out, the rest is trade, and the British can restrict Bulgaria nothing more than economic sanctions.

And this economic sanction, they have to hide behind the scenes, and it is impossible for the Royal Navy to block the Bulgarian coastline.

So it is a good choice to drive up the price of raw materials, increase tariffs on imported Bulgarian goods, and use their influence to **** the international market from Bulgaria and Bulgaria around the world.

Complete business methods can not only crack down on Bulgaria's economic development, but also take advantage of opportunities to make a lot of money. I have to say that John Niu's abacus is very loud.

Looking at the think tank and the report sent by him, Ferdinand was immediately relieved that it was not just a trade war. He had seen more.

Since the British did not dare to provoke war directly, for Bulgaria, the risk factor was within the tolerance range.

Many people in the world are dissatisfied with the British Empire. If Bulgaria can combat the British's arrogance, it is estimated that many people will be happy.

For example, there is a tacit understanding between France and Bulgaria. When Britain and France conflict, Bulgaria supports the French behind the scenes and vice versa.

It is urgent to export the revolution. Although everyone is a colonial empire, there are differences between colonial empires.

The Bulgarian colonies were useless even if they imported as many revolutionaries as they could to support their arms and ammunition.

You can't count on an indigenous tribe with thousands of people to lead an independent war. Many times the struggle between the tribes is greater than the conflict between them and the Bulgarian garrison!

Unless the colonial forces can be rebelled directly, obviously this situation is impossible, even if the officers have ambitions, the soldiers will not agree!

In contrast, the colonies of the British Empire were not the same. It was not so simple to extinguish a fire by lighting a fire.

Just look at the population of the colonies on both sides. All the Bulgarian colonies add up, and the indigenous population above will not exceed 20 million, and it is still declining.

At the current rate, the indigenous people in the Bulgarian colonies will become ethnic minorities in less than 20 years. This issue is related to the exile policy.

For example: exile the ethnic groups in the Middle East to Africa, they will have to reduce their workforce by 30 to 40 percent if they are not convinced; in order to survive, these migrant households will definitely have to conflict with the locals. In many cases, the brains of the people hit the brains of dogs.

The war between the two sides has spread from the Bulgarian colony to the British and French colonies, but it is only a war between them and the indigenous people, which is usually not large in scale and has not attracted the attention of Britain and France.

In addition, due to the needs of domestic engineering, the colonial government levied a large number of labors, the loss of young people, and the decrease in population is inevitable.

In contrast, the British, although their oppression of the colony is no less than that of Bulgaria, but their colony is too fertile and the population base is too large.

In order to manage the place, they also cultivated many bad dogs in the local area. After learning about Western cultural knowledge, the offspring of these people gradually reduced their loyalty.

Once revolutionary ideas take root in these regions, these young people with the second thought are most vulnerable.

Coupled with the long-term oppression of the British, birth and death are all in the mind of the British. The older generation can tolerate it, and the younger generation can hardly accept it.

At this time, they can't help but take the initiative to accept the revolutionary ideas, then become one of them, and finally set off contradictions.

Regardless of its success, the foundation of British rule will be weakened by every revolution, and the colonial system will collapse sooner or later.

In the history of the Soviet Union and the United States, it was such a constant output of revolutionary ideas that finally collapsed the British and French colonial systems.

"The Propaganda Department must pay attention to the fact that foreign students from the British colonies can guide them on the road to revolution.

For example, capitalism, the American Declaration of Independence, the European Revolution, and the French Revolution. These books that encourage national independence are very suitable for them! Ferdinand added

"Yes!" Chekov answered without hesitation.

The powers don't stab each other, are they still powers?

It is worth mentioning that Bulgaria allows any book to be distributed, but these books also have comments in them, and they have been circulated to the market after being reviewed by the Propaganda Department.

This is the method that Ferdinand combined with the Internet's own media from previous lives, and it is better to block it anyway. As long as the right to interpretation is controlled, any revolutionary theory can be distorted.

Therefore, in Bulgaria, all kinds of doctrine books can be sold publicly, and the above ideas must be disseminated, which must also be interpreted in accordance with the meanings of the above experts.

If it sells books without annotations, it is also a banned book, and the relevant personnel have violated the crime of disrupting public order, and the maximum death penalty is three years.

The revolutionary thought that was regarded as a beast in Europe in various countries, and so was the case in Bulgaria. After breaking the window paper, the veil of mystery was torn.

The people found that most of the things pursued above have been realized in Bulgaria, and the rest are ambitious ideals. Those ideals that cannot be achieved under the current productivity situation have become true ideals. Habits Everyone is not interested anymore.

But these things are not suitable for Bulgaria, they may not be suitable for other countries! Especially these nations who want to get rid of British colonial rule and establish independent nations.

In the end, it doesn't matter if it is successful or not ~ www.readwn.com ~ It is important to spread the revolutionary ideas, and there are people to help carry the blame.

Anyway, the output is not the Bulgarian system. Whoever's theoretical thinking is in the end is who's pot.

It is impossible for the British to find evidence. There is no revolution in Bulgaria, where revolutionary thought books can be sold on the street. Do others need to be held responsible when they see these books affected?

There is no need to pay attention to it, just to recommend all these messy ideas to these young people who desire national independence. Whatever results and results will have nothing to do with Ferdinand.

As for whether anyone went to see it, Ferdinand was not worried at all. These books are ordinary books in Bulgaria, but they are banned from the outside world.

The secondary two teenagers, the more they were not allowed to read, the more curious they were. Anyway, they wouldn't think that a book could distort them!

...

Khan, seems to run away!
