"Oh I got it."

Vino said thoughtfully, and while they were communicating, Weston, the current president of the Bank of Boston, hurried over soon.

"General..." Weston was slightly startled when he saw that Gatsby was there. He did not expect that Gatsby would be there as well.

When Wei Nuo saw the person coming, he got to the point directly and said, "I won't say any more unnecessary words."

"This is Mr. Gatsby, the representative of the Chamber of Commerce. He told me that our copper dollar coupons cannot be exchanged for gold. Is this a problem?"

Gatsby looked at Weston and nodded slightly.

Weston's face turned ugly. This happened naturally, but the real situation was not what Gatsby said.

"There is such a thing, but..."

Vino waved his hand to interrupt Whistle, and ordered without refusal: "Since this matter is true, give them all the money Gatsby saved."

Weston wanted to say something more, but looked at Vino's expression that he couldn't refuse.

He sighed and said, "Okay General."

"This is a voucher. I will help you make an appointment as soon as possible, and your money will be withdrawn soon."

Weston took out a postcard from his pocket, which was proof of the appointment.

When Gatsby saw it, the smile couldn't stop coming out of his eyes and he took the letter.

"thanks, thanks."

Weston added: "I will send someone to notify you in three days."

When Gatsby heard this, he no longer had any worries.

After expressing his gratitude to Vino, he left with the people from the Chamber of Commerce.

After Wei Nuo watched them walk out, his face became solemn and he asked in a deep voice: "What is the situation now?"

"I need to know more!"

Weston sighed: "General, there are a lot of counterfeit banknotes on the market now, and we haven't been able to identify them in a short time."

"Coupled with the leadership of these chambers of commerce, there are already many people holding copper dollar coupons to exchange for gold!"

"If our currency cannot circulate in the market, we cannot form an economic cycle."

"By then, let alone defeating Britain's monetary system, our economy will most likely collapse completely."

President Weston looked like a tired old man, letting his body slump on the chair, expressing his helplessness about this matter.

Vino's expression changed. Although he didn't know much about this aspect, he could hear the helplessness in Weston's words.

"Is there any way to deal with it?" Vino asked eagerly.

"Originally." Weston said looking at Vino.

Vino suddenly fell silent, he already understood what Weston meant.

The other party had known about the Chamber of Commerce for a long time. Originally, he wanted to join the Chamber of Commerce and forcefully promote the copper dollar coupons.

As long as it is not in the bank, the money can circulate.

Especially their chamber of commerce.

They need money to build factories and money to pay wages. Their use of funds is huge.

If the money is in their hands, they will be able to spend it quickly.

Form a flow, and by then the copper yuan coupons will be able to form circulation in the market.

But doing so is coercive. If there is a problem with one of the links in the middle, the entire chain will be broken like this.

Their banks will face the risk of a run.

Weston looked at General Vino, and the air suddenly fell silent.

After a long time, Vino took a deep breath: "I was the one who was abrupt."

"Then according to the current situation, we only need to find a merchant with enough size in America to make our money work, right?"

Weston nodded: "Theoretically, that's the case."

"But it's not that simple. The reputation of copper dollar coupons has long been ruined. In the hearts of the people, this currency is worse than a piece of waste paper!"

"And the nature of this copper dollar coupon is more like debt."

"If we can promote a new currency, we can not only pay off part of the debt, but also reopen the situation!"

"But the new currency must have merchants and national platforms that we trust and have sufficient size!"

"Otherwise, the copper dollar coupon incident will serve as a lesson for us!"

Vino nodded thoughtfully, but this war was enough to consume their energy now, let alone promoting the new currency.

However, the currency crisis must be resolved. If civilians do not recognize this currency, soldiers will not recognize this currency.

If military pay cannot be paid, the army will not be able to maintain itself.

In this case, everything will fall into a larger vicious cycle.

Their troops will be short of pay, lack of food, and lack of all the supplies they are in urgent need of.

The Continental Congress would be independent of the British economic system.

By that time, this war of independence will be defeated!

Starting from Boston, America's financial problems quietly became a top priority!

Although Vino didn't understand economics, he was fully aware of the seriousness of the problem. He instantly realized that this matter must be resolved as soon as possible.

"You have full authority to handle the recent financial problems in Boston. I have to go to Philadelphia."

Weston nodded.



At this time, Europe.

Compared to Long Yan's victory on the battlefield, the outcome of the Battle of Milk River was completely covered up.

The news soon reached the ears of George III.

But he heard that of the twenty-seven battleships he had high hopes for, only three were left.

Even the calm king couldn't sit still!

They put a lot of effort into the research and development of the Dreadnought-class battleship.

Moreover, these battleships were recognized by George III as the most powerful weapons to compete with Long Yan.

But now these battleships, a total of twenty-seven, were quickly defeated by the Long Yan Army!

In the end, only three survived.

Long Yan even captured a battleship.

After receiving such a result, the entire high-level parliament in Britain fell into a deep silence.

The dream of being a world hegemon was completely shattered by a war.

Only then did someone realize that some of the things Prime Minister Pete Sr. said were correct.

They are not ready to fight Long Yan yet.

"We may have to adjust our attitude towards Long Yan. If we continue to fight, our losses in this war will be even more severe."

Most of the British House of Representatives changed their minds and began to embrace this idea.

After a long period of reflection, King George III also said: "Let's negotiate peace with Long Yan, but only after we have a draw with Long Yan on the battlefield."

The idea has parliamentary support.

After all, now is not the best time for peace talks. If they were to have peace talks now, they would be at a disadvantage.

Can't get the best negotiation result.
