War Palace and Knee Pillow, Austria’s Destiny

Chapter 340 Go their separate ways

Soros cut off a bloody piece of beef with a knife, picked it up and slowly put it into his mouth, chewing it carefully for a while.

"He is a hundred times scarier than you think. Although the colonial enterprise can obtain huge profits, it is based on massive investment in the early stage.

It is a pity that the Netherlands and Portugal, which were so powerful in the past, are still paying off the debts of the era of navigation to this day. "

Solomon Rothschild immediately stopped smiling. He never imagined that the process would be so complicated.

This time, he almost fell into a trap designed by a kid, and he couldn't help but gasp.

"Do you think it's just an excuse to cover up?"

The other party smiled and did not answer. He drank wine and looked at the embarrassed King.

When dealing with this junior, Solomon did not have the airs of a senior at all, and continued to ask shamelessly.

"The good news announced by the royal family is just to whet our appetite. Is the so-called dividend just a cover?"

"Yes, in fact, this time the railway construction is also a cover. Before massive funds entered the railway company, many lines did not even start construction.

And I learned through a secret channel that the project funds that were supposed to be used on these road sections were transferred to Mexico. "

Although Soros seemed confident in his words, he didn't quite understand Archduke Franz's approach in his heart. After all, this move, which seemed to be completely unhelpful to the empire, actually happened.

Therefore, even a genius like him who transcends history for hundreds of years needs to listen to other people's opinions, maybe he can solve his own doubts.

"It's nothing. Austria contracted a piece of land in Mexico that was not favored by others, but it discovered gold mines there. It was a rich ore.

At this time, there were more than 10,000 imperial soldiers in California, and they controlled almost all the local indigenous people. Today's miners, farmers and even prostitutes are transported from other places. "

Solomon did have his own intelligence sources, but all opinions agreed that Tasan Anna was a tyrant who was greedy for profit and lustful.

They were all very sure that one day in the near future, the Mexicans who coveted wealth would not be able to resist using force against California. Even if they dug up gold, the Austrians would not be able to transport it back to the country.

On the contrary, the war with Mexico will eventually make one of the United States and France the ultimate winner on the North American continent, and Mexico will be completely eliminated from this competition.

“It’s really interesting that the Habsburg family is always so connected to gold.” Soros said with a smile. He felt that America was indeed the promised land of the Jews.

Playing the death game with such a dangerous opponent in Europe is far better than going there to make a fortune quietly. After all, if it weren't for that damn John Taylor, the United States would already be the territory of the Jewish financial consortium.

Perhaps we should have worked harder to stop that traitor from the Democratic Party from coming to power.

In fact, John Tyler's election as president was a surprise to people at the time. Except for Franz, no one knew that the old Harris would fall ill and die just after taking office.

The former, like Andrew Jackson, is the ultimate fan of the Constitution of the United States. Once he came to power, he did not hesitate to offend the wealthy and thwarted the conspiracy of financial groups to control federal rights.

Andrew Jackson's epitaph is simply, "Look, I killed that bank."

John Taylor, like the former, struck hard at the financial consortium soon after taking office. However, he had already offended too many bankers, and the final outcome was destined not to be good.

Solomon and Soros had their own agendas. One was determined to conquer the United States, while the other decided to stay in Vienna.

The previous idea of ​​marriage was cancelled, and Soros decided to leave after dinner. Solomon knew that the other party was wary of him and did not deliberately try to keep him.

Being flexible, he has already planned to use the junior in front of him whom he admires very much as a stepping stone. Although it may not be a wise move to invest in the so-called Austrian Royal Overseas Development Company now, if the empire extends its power to the outside world, then in the future The prices of steel and arms are bound to soar.

Solomon planned to invest in industry because he foresaw that Austria would be plunged into a long war in the future, and both internally and externally, or the empire and its enemies would definitely need his help.

"When a cannon goes off, there is a thousand taels of gold." This is a motto that has always been respected by their family.

In order to ease the relationship with the royal family, it is crucial to find a worthy scapegoat. Thanks to herself for conveying Soros's story to her boss through that cunning and seductive woman.

Soros had already made up his mind to go to the United States. He originally wanted to take the opportunity of marrying the Rothschild family to hide for a while in the Caesar Hotel, the most dangerous place in the empire.

However, since the other party has not made this request for a long time, he has already seen that his situation is no longer safe. Fortunately, everything has been prepared in advance.

Not long after he left the Caesar Hotel and boarded the carriage, there was a problem with Vienna's lighting system. A gas pipe leaked and exploded, plunging the entire city into darkness.

When the lighting system was restored, Soros was nowhere to be seen.

Illumination during this period mainly relied on gas lights. In 1807, Britain became the first city in the world to be lit by gas lights.

Soon this technology spread throughout Europe, and gas lights were used in major cities at that time.

As the capital of Austria, Vienna is no exception, but gas lighting has some inherent disadvantages, such as dark smoke and unpleasant smell.

The biggest disadvantage is that it can easily explode and cause fires.

Solomon did not send anyone to continue the pursuit. Instead, he returned to the dining table and swept away the leftovers.

The old butler on the side was very puzzled by the behavior of this "His Majesty the King". After all, he usually did not drink from the sweet spring and did not eat unless he was practicing.

If even one leaf of a dish is not arranged in a standard way, the servants will be ordered to throw it out and make it again. And today I actually used those leftovers

"Master, the food is already cold." The old butler reminded kindly.

"So what? The most important function of food is to fill the stomach. The occasion and type don't matter."

As he spoke, Solomon rubbed the bread that was used as tableware on the plate, not leaving even a drop of oil or water on it.

“No one can take what’s yours, no one can!”

To be honest, Franz did have the intention to kill Soros, but the method with the highest success rate was to let Adjani get close to the opponent, and it was possible for him to lose a general.

The only way left is to send more people to look for opportunities, but this will be more costly, not to mention that it is very unrealistic to find the target in the vast sea of ​​people.

Instead of going through all the trouble, it would be better to go directly to some non-governmental organizations to draw prizes. Offering a bounty is a good idea. It can not only save yourself from being stigmatized, but also reduce your burden. Why not do it?
