Chapter 862: Discoloration

Alvin, Olivia, and Livina, who have returned to the material world from "Hell", are sitting around the tea table on the top floor of the [Witchcraft Garden] Bosidia City.
Aiwen put the clay pot containing the "Holy Fountain" on the table casually.
Bell Bell Bell...
The phantom of the "tree of life" above the head that seemed to propagate the sky above the sky swayed slightly, as if it had been in a sense of the "mysterious source", and gradually rang a clear and sweet ringtone.
Soon, Aiwen just poured a cup of black tea for the two of them, and [Mind Network] projected a huge picture into a small half of the sky.
Make them feel like they are on the scene.
Oh oh...
In the northeastern part of the New World at this time, although it was still autumn of the year, the cold wave that originated from the "Eternal White Land" had already begun to take off.
In this area.
The north is the colony of the Atlan Kingdom, the Cape of Great Horn, which is home to the largest cod fishing ground in the entire material world, and the south is the colony of the Sark Empire, with an area of ​​1.3 million square kilometers of St. Lawrence.
boom! boom! boom! ...
At this time, the border between the two colonies was filled with smoke, calling for killing all day.
It seems that it is definitely not an ordinary border friction. The two army units have obviously hit a real fire and have risen to the level of war.
"Kill! Drive Atlan's off the sea!"
"Sack's scum, the Potosí Silver Mine is ours!"
"..."
There was intelligence chief Beth, who already had the peak of the official wizarding power, and collected intelligence for them in advance, and Ivan and Livina were shocked to discover that the root of the chaos was the two of them.
The two hurriedly drank a sip of tea and were shocked, and gave each other a positive look, tusk, well done!
As early as three years ago, the "Coin Bill" passed by the two people confirmed from the legal form that the "Tulip Union" issued paper money-the gold pound under the dual-standard system of gold and silver.
This paper currency is issued and managed by the "Union Central Bank" formed by the seven state-owned central banks.
Among them, the
Principality of Galliot
and the
Kingdom of Falitis
, which are the initiators and have the strongest economic strength, take turns serving as bank presidents, once every three years.
The main pattern on the front of the "Golden Pound" is a blooming tulip and seven stars representing the seven nations of the Alliance, and on the back is the black iron cross emblem of the church.
Because anti-counterfeiting work is the most important thing for banknotes, if someone exchanges a pile of waste paper for real money, it will really cry.
Aiwen and the others simply followed the "Lower Republic" to learn the same way, introducing the power of the goddess to endorse the paper money.
The face value of the gold pound issued is 5 pounds, 10 pounds, 20 pounds, 50 pounds, and 100 pounds, and the others are still supplemented by copper foll coins. In order to facilitate the transaction, the 30 gold pound note can be exchanged for a heavy golden lion in the tulip.
Take the current prominent position of the "Tulip Alliance" in the entire world economic system.
Including the "Lower Republics" and the "Palm Palme Confederation", no country dares to slap their chests and say that they will not trade with tulips, and business must be settled in gold pounds.
After three years of steady development.
The international "gold pound settlement system" has gradually taken root.
An international gold and silver dual standard system centered on the gold pound and based on gold and silver has also been formed.
Up to now, the two precious metals, gold and silver, are the most important international reserve assets of various countries, while the gold pound is the most important international liquidation method. The precious metals and the gold pound have become recognized international reserves by all countries at the same time.
In addition.
The officials of the financial department and financial elites in the alliance are also currently trying to anchor the "gold pound" to domestic commodities at the same time.
The "Tulip Union" is not only a major commodity importer, but also an exporter, as well as a major financial country closely related to the fluctuation of commodity prices.
They plan to anchor the price of iron ore, coal, refined steel, natural rubber, cotton, copper... and some varieties of grain with the gold pound, so as to further increase the gold content and trustworthiness of the gold pound.
In particular, the Duchy of Garliott has a fertile, vast and mineral-rich New World North.
In the three years since the "Westward Movement" started, it has been enough to open up large tracts of farms in the central and western regions, and various crops have been harvested for several rounds.
Even the wild bison, under the modulation of the "Tree of Life School", has become a high-quality animal power on the farm.
Subsequent projects, whether it is "steam power" or "electric" or "internal combustion engine machinery", have been launched one after another. Agricultural mechanization will greatly increase the production capacity of this land.
There will also be more surplus for export.
The "gold and silver standard" originally estimated by financial elites can be maintained for at least 30 years.
However, with commodities as a supplement, as long as the military and economic strength of the alliance is still in a dominant position, the international currency of the golden pound can be maintained.
At the same time, the "International Assistance Program" to expand its influence has been steadily advancing.
It was this plan that directly became the fuse of this war.
The "Tulip Alliance" provides loans to many countries like great benefactors, including 90% interest-free loans and 10% low-interest loans.
But there is an additional condition: the recipient country must purchase tulip products or services when using aid funds.
Before leaving the country, the gold pound went directly back to their pockets.
Then, things are simple.
Wherever the golden pound flows, prosperity will occur; wherever the golden pound departs, decline will occur.
After the gold pound flows out, it does not lie in the banks of other countries to earn interest, but flows out to make various investments.
After the Tulip Alliance released the gold pound and bought all kinds of purchases from all over the world, the world economy naturally entered a prosperous cycle.
At this time, coupled with the hard work of the working people of various countries, the world asset prices have naturally risen collectively. After several years of rising, these released golden pounds have reaped a large amount of value-added returns.
Once the Central Bank of the Union starts to withdraw the gold pound by raising interest rates, the gold pound that was previously released will return to the tulip with huge value-added returns.
A covert looting operation was completed.
Well, so there is no charity, it's all business.
Now they no longer need to do extra things.
After the golden pound became a stable international currency, it was harvesting the wealth of the world at any time.
There is no need to play the bayonet with lowland bankers like a gangster like the original "tulip bubble".
It seems to have the grace and confidence of the world's largest country.
Gradually seeing the lethality of the "Tulip Alliance" gold pound, the banker thumped his chest:
"Want to be born in a tulip!"
The things they tried so hard to long for but were easily realized by Tulips.
Then again.
The support of financial services is indispensable for the international settlement currency. Falettis, who was the first to complete the steam industrial revolution, has become the world's financial center as the center of the entire Tulip Alliance.
Therefore, bankers and the financial industry are not completely allowed to enter the alliance countries, but will have strict control measures, and they will never be allowed to act recklessly.
Moreover, based on the alliance's strict defense in the field of people's livelihood, their banks will also be strictly limited in size, which will not be a climate at all, let alone compete with the "Union Central Bank".
Of course.
The practice of using "international currency" to prevail in the world is not a conspiracy, and the logic behind it cannot conceal the smart people of various countries.
Including the Lowlands Republic, the Palme d’Or Federation, the Sark Empire, the Atlan Kingdom, the Heymar Kingdom, and other major powers in the world, they are naturally unwilling to be reaped.
To achieve international currency anchoring, it must be redeemed in gold and silver.
And getting a large amount of real gold and silver has also become a necessary means for their regional gold pound harvest.
However, the territory has expanded to the entire world. Tulips have already gathered most of the world’s gold and silver. The north of the New World is under control, the Rand Grand Gold Mine (Chapter 447) in the South Continent, the Peacock Islands...
Therefore, the Sac Empire and the Atlan Kingdom looked at... the Silver Island Chain of Potosi.
This is the largest known silver mine in the world, with an estimated reserve of 25,000 tons. It is also an area jointly occupied by the Tulip, Sack, and Atlantist forces.
It was at the end of the "Silver War".
Under the witness of the bishop-level priests of the "Eternal Fire Church", "Iron Cross Church", "Dawn Church" and "Frost Church" stationed in the New World, an agreement was initiated by military chiefs of various countries.
The Hilius Empire monopolized three-quarters of Potosí's silver mines, and the remaining three parties equally divided the remaining quarters.
After the strong rise of the Principality of Galliot, due to the complex property rights, it was not able to simply receive the entire inheritance of Hilius.
After several rounds of negotiations, the Principality of Garliott finally won one-half of the total share of silver mines, and the remaining six Tulip nations shared a quarter, and at the same time gave the last quarter to the Sac Empire and Art. Kingdom of Orchid.
But in accordance with the "balanced hand diplomacy" that they are already familiar with.
When negotiating, the dominant alliance just threw the quarter of the share to them as a whole, just letting them distribute it themselves.
It also laid a fuse for the outbreak of the war between the two sides today.
The area of ​​colony in the Southern Continent has leaped to the largest in the world. Of course, the Sark Empire, whose national strength is thriving, cannot be willing to share the same share with Atlant.
Before the "gold pound" was born, they were fighting for the production of silver mines.
Now that the power of international currencies is gradually emerging, the two families of Sac and Atlan can no longer hold back. They are fighting for the huge interests of the Potosi Silver Island chain!
"But, something is wrong! The intelligence mentioned that Atlan took the initiative to provoked the war, but the army was beaten like a grandson, provoking... just that?"
Looking at the land battlefield, it is clear that the two sides have not been engaged for a long time, but the Atlan side is obviously in a decline. From Aiwen’s eyes, it is obvious that the defeat is set~EbookFREE.me~ You did not say that there might be one last time. Did even more demons descend on Atlan? Will these chaotic guys by nature..."
However, Livina's voice did not fall.
In the vision of [Mind Network], in the vast ocean between the "Potosi Silver Island Chain" and the New World, there is also a battlefield where the fleets of both sides are fighting.
Suddenly, a huge warship that was hung with the Atlant flag and looked like a monster in the eyes of mankind in this era suddenly emerged from the air.
"How is this going?!"
The moment they saw the battleship, the three people suddenly got up at the same time their complexion changed greatly. The clay pot placed on the table was also overturned and dropped, and the "Holy Fountain" spilled all over the floor.
Booming...
The moment it was exposed to the spring water, the phantom "Tree of Life" in the [Witchcraft Garden] stretched out its branches and leaves, and unexpectedly began to rise again quickly.
But the three of them couldn't take care of this anomaly.
