The Rise of the Empire

Chapter 140: Interest binding

   "Like the way of cooperation like Brom-Forth Shipyard?" said the Marquis frowning. With the sudden emergence of the Bavarian Ship Design Bureau, the development of the Brom-Foss Shipyard has also become a miracle in the industry. From a shipyard that could only be regarded as an upper-level shipyard, it has become the first-rate shipyard in Germany. In terms of efficiency and construction speed, I am afraid it is already the first in Germany.

"There are some problems with this way of cooperation. After all, we are not a country. The exchanges between the two sides are affected by tariff barriers. If we set up factories in Bavaria, how much can your country buy? Can you get out of Bavaria and enter a broader market? Will our investment get enough benefits? And if we don't set up a factory, then the situation is no different from a simple sale." The Marquis really understood.

"No, it is a closer connection. Whether it is Bavaria or Austria, the status of the world industry is not high. We lack basic industries, and you lack the market and financial support. We can form a certain degree of independence but but Groups with common interests, we are not a monopoly. What we do is not as absolute as a monopoly, but the industries covered are very wide. In addition, the most important thing is that this is not simply mutual assistance in economic interests, but also involves other aspects. "

   As a Ruprecht who knows the future well, Prince Ruprecht has been thinking about a question, as a king, who is the real power to support him. From the current point of view, the German kings almost control the entire country, but in fact, at the last minute, neither the army nor the capitalists are reliable. The nobles suffered heavy losses in the first battle and abandoned the king and this class irreparably.

  Simple exchange of benefits and privileges can't hold people's hearts. The nobles actually worked for the king. What about even a top aristocrat like Bismarck, who is extremely human? If the king does not support you, then there is only one way to resign sadly. Many people actually understand this. So when the kingdom passed away, some of them didn't care. Because with their power and financial resources, they can mix better in the Weimar Republic, such as Hindenburg...

Upper decision decided by the economic background. Fortunately, Ruprecht still remembers this basic principle when he first studied politics. Almost everything in this world revolves around the word economy! Let's not say anything else, at least this sentence is absolutely correct. So Ruprecht, who had advanced ideological weapons, began to wonder how to let more people have a common economic foundation! Consolidate the foundation of the empire. Let more people share weal and woe with the kingdom!

   I now represent the royal family, and if you want more people to share our lives with you, the easiest way is to let them put the money in their own hands! Once the kingdom is over, your savings will be turned into ashes, you are not afraid! Now Ruprecht's credit is just right! Although the current king is poor, he will never default. Under the condition of credit guarantee, Ruprecht has obtained a lot of funds through the issuance of bonds, but these are not enough, and the financial implications are far from enough!

   After Ruprecht had money, he was ready to enrich all areas of national production. Compared with Prussia, the power of Bavarian capitalists is very weak, Bavarian industry is already relatively backward, and natural industrial capitalists are not much stronger. Integrating these forces is nothing for the suddenly rich Bavarian royal family, but soon Ruprecht discovered that the pond in Bavaria is too small, and integration is not very useful...

   So in the end Ruprecht decided to stretch his hand abroad, Austria-Hungary! This is almost the only country where he can reach out and the other party may also accept it. The industrial cooperation between Bavaria and Austro-Hungary can be regarded as a group for the weak to keep warm, each taking what they need, and today this step is finally taken.

   "Establishing factories in partnership, and cross-holding." Ruprecht put forward his own views. "The old foundation has limited your development to some extent, so we have to make it a stove. In Germany, you will have access to better technology and better management talents. If you just want to make money, So in the Austro-Hungarian Empire, and if you want to go to the world, you must be in Germany. We will do our best to provide help, whether it is funds, contacts or discounts! We need to break up the old system and transfer resources Re-optimize and reorganize."

   "But if there is any, is this new industrial entity yours or mine? Or is it ours?" Marquis Aldrin asked carefully. The respect in his tone did not mean the Marquis's concession. He thinks very clearly in this regard.

"We are in a different position. I am a king. Money is only one aspect. I need the factory below to provide me with the best equipment. I don't care who provides it, as long as he can meet our requirements when necessary. Yes, except for the military industry and some areas that must be controlled by the country, I can let go. Of course, you don’t expect me to give you a monopoly in a certain industry, the good things I want, and the monopoly is not good for me.” Rupp Recht made it clear ~lightnovelpub.net~ and you will pass this olive branch to others at the same time. You attract these companies to Bavaria to prosper Bavaria’s economy. At the same time to provide us with convenience, this transaction is very cost-effective. "The Marquis of Odlin already knows what Ruprecht means. One takes the advice he needs, and the control of the factory belongs to him, but the Bavarian royal family will buy shares and at the same time interfere with the production of the factory from a macro level. The other party. After all, it is the king, not the same as his own needs, and it is precisely because of the dislocation of needs that everyone has the possibility of cooperation, rather than a deadly enemy.

"In addition, if your relationship wants to go further, I need you to express more goodwill. When the Kingdom needs financing or construction of some public projects, I hope that this fund can be provided by people in the circle instead of outside. Because The latter will not provide funds for no reason, and on the other side..."

"I understand what you mean. Another aspect is that when someone wants to betray you, you have to consider the price paid! You use a method similar to cross-holding to tie everyone together. This method is more powerful than the marriage of nobles in the past. That's too much." The Marquis of Aldrin continued.

   This is actually a kind of cross-holding of changing directions. There is me in you and you in me. If the Kingdom of Bavaria can be linked with a group of capitalists in this way, then when the Bavarian royal family is in crisis, those capitalists will definitely stand on Ruprecht's side if they will not be able to fight for their own contributions! After all, the newly formed government cannot return the money to the capitalists. The fall of the government will cause the capitalists to lose their money. This kind of interest binding can almost be said to be the strongest!

   The second is more~~~. Seeking collection~~~, asking for a reward~~~.
