Chapter 981： Lose money (1/2)

With the continuous withdrawal of Allied forces, the law and order in France also deteriorated sharply. The Parisian Revolutionary Government, which has just taken over power, obviously lacks governance experience, and the response measures it has taken are even more laughable.

For example: ”Economic Recovery Law”, ”Employment Law”, ”Social Assistance Law”...

These measures seem to be very good, but in fact they ignore the feasibility. Whether it is to restore the economy, increase the employment rate, or social assistance, they cannot do without money.

It just so happens that France has no money now. The European War not only impoverished the French government, but even the private consortium was also greatly injured, and it was simply unable to provide funds for the Paris government.

Print money when you have no money, and don't know which genius came up with the idea. The small currency of 1 franc and 2 francs has long withdrawn from the stage of history. Since the success of the Paris Revolution, the value of zero on the franc has continued to increase.

In France, where everyone is a billionaire, carrying a bag of money to buy bread is not news.

Ordinary people cannot keep up with inflation no matter how hard they work. As the Times described it, the franc increases by one zero every month.

The economy has collapsed, and the revolutionary government of Paris is still fighting. As the scapegoat, President Robert has long been ousted by angry French people, and now the 17th President of the French Republic-Baptiste is in charge.

On average, the government changes twice a month, which truly reflects ”the emperor takes turns to do it, and he will come to my house next year.” Let's put it this way, but all political factions with a bit of energy have been presidents.

The final outcome of perseverance is the same, no matter who is on stage, it will not last long, let alone control the situation.

After hanging a cigar, President Baptiste asked: ”When will the assistance of the European Union be delivered?”

France has no money and can only turn to the international community to get rid of its financial difficulties. There is no doubt that the only thing that can help them with the current situation is the European Union.

Although the British have money, John Bull’s money is hot! The current European hegemon is the Holy Roman Empire. If he entangles with the British, he is looking for death.

Foreign Minister Fernandez: ”It's very regrettable, Your Excellency. The European Union has issued an ultimatum and ordered us to determine the king's choice within one month and restore the monarchy.

If we cannot meet their demands, not only will there be no international aid, but we may also be sanctioned by the alliance.

Just yesterday morning, Chekov, the head of the Grain Committee of the Holy Roman Empire, released the ”White Paper on Grain Export”, reducing the total amount of grain planned to be exported to my country in the second half of the year by one million tons. ”

In theory, after abandoning the Italian region, France has no shortage of food. But this is only in theory. Because of the war, French agricultural production has been devastated, and food has to rely on international imports.

It has not been a day or two for the Holy Roman Empire to monopolize the food trade in Europe. With the birth of the European Union, this monopoly has been pushed to the extreme.

As a strengthened version of the EU, a customs union is naturally indispensable. If the agricultural products of the American countries want to be imported into France, they also have to pay high tariffs.

If tariffs are collected by the French government, these are naturally not a problem. Regrettably, as part of the sinking fund, France’s tariff power has long been in the hands of the anti-French alliance.

Tax evasion is impossible. It involves self-interest. The Vienna government is very concerned about the import of foreign agricultural products and industrial and commercial products. Even if someone wants to smuggle, they can only get the goods from their own homes.

In this context, the Holy Roman Empire reduced its food exports to France, and the blow to the Paris government was undoubtedly fatal.

Once there is insufficient food input and a great famine breaks out, the revolutionary government of Paris can be swallowed in an instant.

”We have done so much effort, is there no effect at all?”

After speaking, Baptiste closed his eyes. The facts are in front of us, but as long as there are several countries in the alliance to help them, it will not fall to the present situation.

As a member of the Republican faction, Baptiste has no way to compromise on the issue of restoration.

In fact, even if the revolutionary government of Paris is willing to compromise, it will not produce results for a while.

It seems that the Republicans are in power, but in fact the most powerful government is the royalist party. If it were not for the close strength of the three kings and their mutual restraint, otherwise there would be no republicans at all.

Foreign Minister Fernandez waved his hand and said helplessly: ”This is the responsibility of the Bonapartist dynasty. All European countries have been offended by them so much that our current diplomatic work is difficult to carry out.

Want to change this situation, can not be accomplished overnight. Unless the climax of the European Revolution comes again, otherwise...”

The Bonaparte dynasty offended many countries, and the Paris Revolutionary Government also offended many countries. The three words ”revolutionary party” alone are enough to arouse strong dissatisfaction among everyone.

Revolution is also contagious. The European Union is keen to promote the restoration of France, essentially to curb the spread of revolutionary ideas.

Baptiste interrupted: ”Don't say it, now is not the time to export revolutionary ideas. Once we start exporting revolutionary ideas, it is estimated that the Russians outside Paris will immediately come to the door and send us to the guillotine!

It's not that I'm afraid. The main reason is that the power of the feudal monarchy system is too strong. In a short time, we still don't have the ability to collide with them. There is no need to make fearless sacrifices. ”

Prime Minister Michael warned: ”Your Excellency the President has said well, and it is indeed not suitable for the enemy to head-on.

The most important thing for us right now is to solve the refugee and unemployment problems. Especially the refugee problem has become a cancer that endangers national security.
