The waiter at the reception turned around and glanced secretly at the palace hall from time to time. Another burst of exclamations came from inside. He didn't know what the young man named Du Lin was talking about, but the exclamations of so many big shots clearly meant that what he was talking about was very special. It's interesting and surprising. He wanted to eavesdrop, but the strict palace system did not allow him to do so. Staff like him can only guard the door and are not allowed to enter the palace.
At this time, Du Lin finally understood the feeling of cadres going to the countryside, that is, no matter what you say, there will always be someone to praise you. When he just said that he had invested in the world's first pornographic film, it immediately triggered Everyone screamed. People also asked for relevant content information. When they heard that Du Lin had invested 150,000 yuan to shoot this movie a few years ago, everyone was shocked and speechless. 150,000 stars. The currency in circulation in Orix is the Federation Shield. In the trade between the Federation and Orix, they always use the Federation Shield to settle transactions. Do you want it
Calculating this, it would cost 600,000 federal guilders to shoot a movie, which was definitely a huge sum of money at the time! Even today, 150,000 stars is not a small amount of money! Some girls rushed forward excitedly and boldly asked about what happened during the filming and the process of filming the film. Some of the girls also asked if they could go to the Empire with Doolin and if there was any chance of being part of a movie.
Speaking of the film industry of the Empire, it is definitely the best in the world. It may also be that the culture of the Empire has a wider audience. A large number of films are exported overseas every year, expanding the influence of the Empire. Of course, Maggs and the cabinet have not yet clearly realized the importance of the film industry in cultural invasion. Big figures like them just regard movies as a plaything. After all, they are too old and have more attention. They all focus on politics and decision-making, and have neither time nor inclination to watch movies and feel the charm of movies.
Dulin can testify to this. He has not watched a movie for a long time and has no desire to watch it.
After dealing with the girls' words, Dulin talked about another thing, "I just tasted Orex's specialty beef. I have to say that it was a very unforgettable experience. I can't eat it in the Empire." Such good beef." As soon as he spoke, the whole palace fell silent again. Everyone was listening to him and looking at him. He didn't have stage fright at all. He didn't know how many times he had experienced this kind of situation. , he didn’t panic at all when he told the lie, “When my teeth lightly touched the beef, the tender and juicy beef gave me the most wonderful experience. I have never experienced that feeling before.”
"I was thinking just now that when I return to the empire, I may never be able to eat such delicious beef again, so why don't I bring in a batch from here?" He looked at Hazlett, and then The reader was stunned for a moment and immediately woke up.
Even though His Majesty the King is one of the representatives of many foolish and incompetent kings in the Principality of Oleks, this does not mean that he is really a fool. He immediately realized that there were other things in Dulin's words. Although he was not sure about the meaning, he knew how to proceed, "Mr. Dulin, I can definitely give you some Mondog cattle for free, one batch every year, so that you can continue to enjoy the best beef in the world. !" Speaking of the best, Haizlett seemed very confident. This is a five-star edible beef certified by the Federal Food Agency, although this brand is owned by more than a dozen small countries.
With a grateful smile on his face, Du Lin nodded slightly, "Thank you very much for your Majesty's generosity. I have never been a stingy person, and I am also a person who is willing to share. If I am the only one who enjoys such delicious food, I think it is It's unfair to others, so let's do this..." He seemed to be thinking, and after a moment he said, "As long as the cattle that Orix puts out every year are outside your plan, no matter how many they are, give them to me!"
This sentence was full of unparalleled heroic spirit. For a moment, everyone swayed, almost fell down, and their domineering force was released. Everyone was blinded by the "golden light". Some ranchers..., no, it was the nobles whose breathing became rapid. This year, the Federal Ministry of Trade has told them that they will not consider continuing to introduce agricultural and animal husbandry products from them in the short term. This has made some people almost lose the hair on their heads. Dulin's promise at this time is simply a savior.
If a country that sells agricultural products to foreign countries cannot find a buyer, the socio-economic order will collapse at a speed beyond people's imagination.
Hazlett had an idea flash in his mind and asked another question, "Our agricultural products are also good. Whether it is wheat or other vegetables or fruits, they are the best in the world." Yes, these also have brands, but this This was not issued by the federal government, it was done by them themselves. There is no reason why animal husbandry is the best, but agricultural products are not the best. In order to prevent the nobles who are mainly responsible for agricultural products from causing trouble, Haizlett awarded them a "World's Excellent Agricultural Products" brand, which is very bluffing.
Dulin nodded and agreed without thinking, "It's not a problem at all. We can sign a contract to facilitate this." This is actually what Mags meant. By grasping the economic lifeline of these small countries, he would tie them to his own line. , this will drive the entire younger country to develop and progress together, and the Yaoxing Empire will naturally gain international momentum. When the time comes, it will say that it is a superpower and has the responsibility to help all backward countries. Under the dual guarantee of economy and force , this position cannot be shaken.
Now that the empire has money, the real main force in the federal financial tsunami is not Dulin or those international hot money, but the empire. Only the country's financial resources can play a decisive role. The combined capital of Dulin, poker and idle international hot money is only 30 to 40 billion federal guilders. It cannot completely severely damage the federal economy and give them a chance to rise. However, the Imperial Treasury If you take action, it will be different.
With money, the next thing will become much easier, and Du Lin has a vague suspicion that Maggs has made so much money silently this time, will he become more interested in domestic capital forces? Tougher
Moreover..., he also had a guess that maybe the empire would establish a real central bank, a country-based central bank.
It is not unusual for a country's central bank to be controlled by a group of capitalists, but after all, the empire is a country that takes politics first, and the excessive power of capitalists will make the ruler dissatisfied. In the past, the empire couldn't spend much money to bother them. Now that the empire has money, it may not give them a try.
When Du Lin came back to his senses, the entire palace was filled with cheers. Many people looked at Du Lin with eyes full of friendship and gratitude. The biggest problem in agriculture and animal husbandry is that it cannot be deposited. This season's agricultural products are piled in the warehouse after harvesting. If they are not sold as soon as possible, they will soon rot and rot, and the initial investment will be in vain. Even if some can be produced and preserved by other means, there will be great losses. As for the animal husbandry industry, it is even worse. The animals cannot be sold when they are ready for slaughter. Not only do they need to occupy a lot of space, but the extra feed every day is enough to put these enterprises on the verge of bankruptcy very quickly.
There was once a news story about a company that cultivates aquatic products. Because its products were unsaleable, it spent thousands of yuan on feeding materials every day. It lasted for more than two months and finally had to declare bankruptcy.
Du Lin's appearance solved these troubles, the music started playing at the right time, and some young ladies began to actively invite Du Lin to dance.
The next day, Dulin signed a series of trade contracts with Hazlett in the palace. Among the ancillary clauses of these trade contracts, there were some not-so-"trade" contents. For example, the diplomatic relations between the Principality of Oreks and the Empire will be upgraded to the ambassadorial level, and both sides will send ambassadors. For example, Oreks will deepen exchanges and bilateral relations with the Empire and make efforts to seek common progress. When the Empire later reported the news, it said in a joking tone that it was a case of "beef diplomacy."
This was a very unfair contract, and both parties knew it, and Hazlett was not dissatisfied with it either. Especially when Dulin privately promised him that the empire would help the Principality of Oleks establish some independent light and heavy industrial enterprises, Hazlett had nothing to say.
In this industrial age, steam machinery is king!
Du Lin then donated 1 million to the Ministry of Education in Orix in public, expressing his emphasis on education, and also donated some money to other departments. Du Lin was well praised in the newspaper, but he didn't need any money for good words anyway.
With an excellent answer sheet, Dulin left the Principality of Orix and continued southward.
At the same time, some small frictions were occurring on the border between the Empire and the Federation.
After the federal financial tsunami, the economy collapsed, and the lives of people from all walks of life became a little difficult. Some people will always think more than others, especially the middle class in these federal cities close to the empire. The Federal Shield is indeed worthless, and the money in their pockets is about to turn into paper. Although it is not like some reports saying that they can only buy a piece of bread with the salary of the past month, the difference is not much. . Although the federal shield is not far away from becoming useless paper, things are still things after all, such as a gold ring.
A gold ring may only be exchanged for two or three meals in the Federation, but in the Empire it can be exchanged for ten days and a half month's worth of living supplies, or even more. Some capable people brought things to the empire in exchange for the necessities they needed for their own lives. There were also some people from the empire who took a fancy to business opportunities and used stars and goods to go to the Federation to purchase various luxury goods. The problem arises here...
Everyone knows about the Federation's problems. There are always some people who want a better life. When they see those imperial tycoons carrying large amounts of cash in and out of the border, they will inevitably have evil thoughts.
A gunshot shocked two countries!
