Hua Li and other important officials of the empire exchanged cryptic glances with each other. They were all cunning and cunning people, and they had long figured out the key to it - the plan proposed by the Longshan family would undoubtedly have great influence on the Gallic Empire. the benefits of. wWw,QuanBen-XiaoShuo,CoM
The most important point is that the Gallic Empire just ended the Hundred Years War on the Islands more than forty years ago. After more than forty years of recuperation, it finally recovered from that terrible war. As the main battlefield of the war, the Gallic Empire was beaten to a pulp. If it were not for the financial assistance from so many countries in the Western Continent, the Gallic Empire would have gone bankrupt a hundred times.
Therefore, this time the aliens invaded again on a large scale. The Gallic Empire, and even the countries of the entire western continent, were unable to fight another all-out war. To put it bluntly, these countries have no money left to fight a war.
Orcs, barbarians, Titans, dwarves, it is so simple for these foreign races to start a war. They can just carry their ancestral weapons, wear their ancestral armor, or go directly to the battlefield with no shirt on. They don't need military pay, they just plunder wealth; they don't need military rations, they just eat locally.
When the human empire launched a war, the huge expenditures on military pay, military rations, ordnance, as well as pensions for injured and dead soldiers were enough to drive the finance ministers of various countries crazy. With the current wealth of the Gallic Empire, the gold coins in the treasury can probably support the national mobilization to continue fighting for half a year. In six months, not even a single copper will be left in the Gallic Empire!
Of course, the Gallic Empire can borrow money from wealthy families with huge potential, such as the Jinbei family, the Silver Iris family, etc. These families all have astronomical wealth. The Gallic Empire could even accept economic assistance from other countries and slowly repay it in other ways after the war.
But there is no free lunch in the world. If you borrow money from a wealthy family, the high interest rates charged by these vampires will make any emperor vomit blood.
As for financial aid from other countries, various preferential terms and strange additional conditions, such as treaties such as allowing a certain princess of the Gallic Empire to marry a certain heir of a certain country, are inevitable. .
In a word. Take money from those countries, take money from wealthy families. It was not a good fruit for the Gallic Empire.
The Longshan family is different. The terms of the Longshan family are so generous that it makes people crazy!
Unlimited interest-free borrowing! The word "unlimited" is worthy of discussion. No one knows how deep the Longshan family's family background is. But interest-free loan is such a lovely word. No Prime Minister or Chancellor of any country would reject the infinite love that this word radiates.
Funding for the reconstruction of nine northern provinces. This is also an astronomical amount of expenditure. The aliens razed all the buildings in the nine provinces and burned all the cities; and some bastard who killed a thousand swords burned all the mountains and forests in the nine provinces, and those who grew If you want to restore the mountains and forests that have been in ruins for hundreds of years, the mountains and forests that contain endless wealth, this investment is enough to bankrupt the Gallic Empire!
The Longshan family is willing to bear this amount of funds, so it is a reasonable reward for him to act as the agent for the post-war commercial operations of the nine provinces. As long as the Gallic Empire strengthens its supervision and firmly holds the power of governance in its hands, this will mean that the Longshan family has become the business manager of the royal family. It is also an acceptable thing to operate all the resources of nine provinces for them.
As for the military alliance treaty between the Longshan family and the Lusen family. This is simply an irresistible temptation! Even without the previous interest-free loan clause, Holy Light I and the empire's ministers doubted whether they could refuse this clause.
This time, the Longshan family rescued the Black Crow Gorge defense line and dispatched three legions of private soldiers at once to cooperate with Enzo to annihilate an orc legion in one fell swoop. The war potential of the Longshan family can be imagined. Such a powerful army is enough to influence the national affairs of the commercial country of Vias Commercial Federation. …,
