As soon as Britain took action, the whole of Europe was shocked, especially when Gladstone actually sent an invincible Royal Fleet to threaten, which shocked countless people.
For a while, everyone believed that negotiations were inevitable, and the financial market made its own judgment. All Prussian financial products peaked and began to fall steadily, while French products began to fluctuate and bottom out.
Smart people all know that the war can no longer be fought. Without the fuel of victory, Prussia’s stock price will not rise! What are you waiting for if you don't escape at this time?
The market finally began to loosen up, and Fangguan, who was far away in Amsterdam, finally found an opportunity to eat. The short positions began to be filled little by little, but the gap was so big that it could not be filled for a while.
"What should I do? What can I do! If I can't buy the whole position, I will miss this wave of market. How can I return the master 100 million pounds by then!"
"Now I have more than 60 million pounds. What can I do with this little money? Damn it, why are these British consortiums so powerful? I really can't rob them..."
Just as Fangguan was stamping his feet anxiously, the door suddenly opened and a beautiful Yanzi hurriedly walked in. This was a beautiful girl with Jewish ancestry. She was a financial spy that Fangguan had trained for several years. Jewish bankers were very well connected.
"Baby...what good news have you brought me? How many stocks and bonds are you prepared to give up to your greedy distant relatives and friends?"
Baby with wavy red hair shook her head, "Dear lady, I didn't make any breakthrough there, but I received a letter from a very strange source!"
"I never expected that a Chinese international student would choose me to send you a letter..."
Fangguan was stunned for a moment, "Our international student, do you want you to bring me a letter?"
"That's right, he's a freshman at the Imperial College of Engineers. He just arrived in Berlin last year... His surname seems to be Lin..."
That's not what Fang Guan cared about. She suddenly felt that there was something wrong here. Chinese students studying abroad could meet with her and King Yi directly. As for letters, they could be delivered directly and smoothly. Why should they go through European girls? What about walking in circles?
Abnormal, really abnormal!
When Fangguan opened the letter, he saw beautiful handwriting inside. The handwriting was so familiar that Fangguan knew it was Xiang Ying's handwriting without even looking at the signature.
"What does Xiang Ying want to do? Secretly write me a letter..."
The more Fang Guan opened his expression, the more surprised he became. In the end, he was so shocked that he couldn't close his mouth. "Oh my God! What on earth is this guy going to do? Is he crazy..."
The close confidant Bebe asked confusedly, "Miss, are you in trouble?"
Fangguan shook his head, "It's not a trouble, but someone wants to help me solve the trouble... Xiang Ying actually knows about my current shortage of positions, and he actually told me..."
"He actually told me, don't worry, there will be a great opportunity for bargain hunting later... Let me be prepared!"
Not only that, Fang Guan also took out several bank cashier's checks from inside Dafa, all issued by different banks in Europe. The total denomination was actually a huge three million pounds.
"Xiang Ying actually has so much money? He actually has three million pounds of his own and asked me to invest... He actually wants a share of it!"
"Where did he get the money? What on earth did he want to do..."
Fang Guan is very aware of the intricate relationships within the Chinese clan, and she can vaguely guess the source of all Xiang Ying's money. The first one is his war capture. The Zhiyuan attacked many French merchant ships on its way back home, and even shelled them. to Dakar.
Trophies are absolutely indispensable, and the unspoken rule in war is that the commander has the right to share the spoils. Although the Chinese must take credit for all seizures, I am afraid that some people will not strictly abide by such orders.
The second is the power of the Xiang Ying family. Lord Long is now the king of the Far East. Naturally, his nephew has a share of the precious goods in the Far East. However, how long has it been since the Far East was liberated? There is so much to be done and Xiang Ying can get it. how much?
It seems that there is only the last possibility. Xiang Ying is actually supported by the plutocrats within the Chinese clan!
This thought flashed through Fangguan's mind like lightning. "Oh my God! It must be like this. The Chinese plutocrats who are beginning to take shape are beginning to think about the political situation after the head of state!"
"There must be some old fox laying out the chess pieces in advance!"
It was as if Fang Guan had opened the door to hell, and the dark secret made her shudder!
Xiang Ying's letter did not disclose specific details. He just asked Fangguan to wait patiently. He made it clear that Prussia's financial products would plummet in the future.
And that’s the last chance for foodies! At that time, these three million pounds will be mixed with sand into the game!
On the long coastline of Prussia, the Zhiyuan was cruising accompanied by two old Prussian ironclads. Xiang Ying stood on the bow of the ship and looked deeply at the dark and cold water of the North Sea.
"The letter should have been delivered to Fangguan! I believe Fangguan will make the right decision!"
"It also takes money to maintain the stormtroopers! Since ancient times, if you don't have money, you can't gather troops. The stormtroopers are a place where Chinese elites gather. I can't let them compromise for five buckets of rice!"
"Master! I admire you and believe everything you say! But I just don't agree with you... The Chinese in the future must give priority to military affairs!"
"All the Chinese have to do in the next hundred years is to expand and expand again. We must learn from the Europeans and continue to expand our own colonies!"
"A nation without colonies has no future!"
"I'm sorry, master, I'm afraid I can't obey your orders today!"
Thinking of this, Xiang Ying suddenly said, "The boiler is pressurized, the ship's speed is increased by two knots, and the patrol is extended to the northwest..."
Lin Zhen's eyes lit up, "Have you made a decision?"
"Of course! The navy is an offensive branch. We cannot be spectators in such a war!"
"Go forward and look for the main force of the French navy! If we don't fight to the death, we won't be able to forge the soul of our navy!"
…
Just when Xiang Ying was about to act arbitrarily, Xiao Letian and Bismarck were discussing the current diplomatic dilemma.
"Xiao Letian, do you know that in two hours in the morning, I received telegrams from seven European countries...all of them urging me to negotiate immediately!"
"Gladstone was the first to send a telegram, and he also sent the Duke of Newx as a special envoy! It's not easy to handle, it's really not easy to handle..."
Xiao Letian glanced at him, "My old friend, diplomacy is your strong point. I'm afraid this problem won't trouble you!"
Bismarck smiled awkwardly, "Of course it's difficult, but I have to trouble you and go to Belgium in advance! I think the King of Belgium would like to see you very much, so you can be my representative..."
"Oh! Are you ready to play the Belgium card?" Xiao Letian smiled conspiratorially.
"Hahaha... I've been hiding this card for several years. I guess Napoleon himself has forgotten it for the third time. It's time for me to use it!"
