The Third Reich in Desperation

"Just excuse me, I'll treat you as an old man farting." Zhang Chengtian repeated loudly obediently.

Immediately Zhang Chengtian added in a low voice, "I have to listen to it a few more times after being scolded. This is the first time in my life that I have encountered such a strange request."

There were only three people present, and it was obvious that Zhang Chengtian didn't say this to Sharibin...

"Presumptuous" Schacht was furious, "You layman, what right do you have to say that about me!"

Zhang Chengtian also got angry: "If it weren't for you bastard who didn't let me finish my sentence, I wouldn't curse!"

Hearing this, Schacht laughed angrily: "Okay, I want to hear what you, a layman, have to say."

Zhang Chengtian ignored Schacht's sarcasm, and said with a blank look: "The official words I said before are obviously for the public, especially for the French. In fact, we issue this commemorative The fundamental purpose of currency is to replace the increasingly unstable mark and become a new currency."

When Schacht heard this, he realized that he might have misunderstood the young man's intentions.The other party did not propose to issue multi-functional commemorative coins to commemorate his own achievements, as he had speculated at the beginning.

However, the angry Schacht was unwilling to admit defeat, and asked in a low voice: "If you want to change the currency, how can you ensure that the currency does not collapse, and how can you ensure that the new currency will not depreciate even more."

Schacht is worthy of being a master of economics, and he hit the point right away.Zhang Chengtian secretly marveled at Schacht's reaction speed, but calmly replied: "This is what we came to discuss with you today."

Seeing Zhang Chengtian winking at himself, Sharibin quickly took out the proposal he had drawn up before and read: "Issuing commemorative coins with currency functions has the following advantages." It is obvious that Zhang Chengtian has played tricks on confusing the French. effort.The German side will bite to death that this new currency is not called currency, but commemorative coins.

Then Sharibin listed the three major advantages of commemorative coins replacing Mark.

First, it is not the designated currency for compensation, so there is no need to receive compensation pressure, and the stability is greatly increased.

Second, the German government can hand over all the converted marks to France and pay off the indemnity.If it is still not clear, just print money at full capacity.

Third, secretly abolish the mark, and the whole country will go from bottom to top, and no longer accept any mark transactions.Completely get rid of the destruction of Germany caused by World War I reparations.

Sensitive Schacht quickly discovered the bright spot.Once this initiative is successful, apart from its international influence, the German economy will completely shake off the heavy shackles left by the Treaty of Versailles.At that time, let alone paying France an extra [-] million marks, it is okay to spend an extra one billion marks, but it is just sending the French a pile of waste paper!

After taking two steps back and forth, Schacht added excitedly: "This idea is very good. Regardless of the name of the commemorative coin, it can become a new currency. In addition, in order to prevent a currency crisis during the transition period. I think People’s wealth can be temporarily linked to land or industrial products. Then, on this basis, commemorative coins will be gradually promoted, and properties of equivalent value can be used to preserve the value of the new currency.”

Like the practice in history, Schacht thought of the way of real estate mortgage Mark.But this time, what this approach brings to Germany is not a short-term economic stability, but a transition to a complete return to normal economic conditions.

After finishing speaking, Schacht unexpectedly bowed to Zhang Chengtian and said, "I must apologize to you for my previous recklessness. I admit that you are very talented in economics. Now, I begin to believe the rumors."

The flattered Zhang Chengtian quickly helped up Schacht, who was the age of his parents.Facing this "economic magician" in history, Zhang Chengtian blushed and asked, "Hehe, what do you believe, Mr. Minister?"

Schacht said indifferently: "I began to believe that you might really be God's gift to Germany as advertised in the newspapers."

Zhang Chengtian's face became more and more red, and he said to Schacht very modestly: "You too, you too."

Text Chapter 42 New York

After imitating the currency name of the German mark, Zhang Chengtian casually used Niu Ke as the name of the commemorative coin of the mark.However, due to pronunciation and translation problems, Niu Ke was translated into "New Ke" by the State Currency Bureau and registered.For this, Zhang Chengtian expressed his heartbreak, and deeply felt that his creativity had been tampered with.

Therefore, a commemorative coin called New York was promoted by Schacht, the director of the currency and the president of the German Central Bank, and was approved by the currency bureau. Driven by the central bank, it was released quickly.

This New York commemorative coin is called the most special commemorative coin in German history by the German Central Bank.In order to celebrate the success of the Battle of the Ruhr, the commemorative coin was announced for the first time, becoming the first commemorative coin with transaction function in German history.

Under the promotion of the Gestapo, the domestic people showed great enthusiasm for this commemorative coin.Foreign public opinion, especially French public opinion, ridiculed the German government for its excessive propaganda of the Ruhr victory.The German circles who were trying to ridicule the over-celebration of this partial battle.

At the same time, the German Ministry of Economic Affairs quickly passed a new bill through the provisional parliament formed by the Socialist Workers Party, replacing all bank deposits of German citizens with real estate and industrial products under the name of the government.Due to the huge workload, even though the elites in the domestic financial circles were urgently summoned, the bill was still delayed in being implemented.

However, after removing the restraint of the old Congress, the bill went smoothly from passage to implementation, and it was only a matter of time before it was fully in place.

In Germany, almost the whole country is very cooperative, jointly implementing the provisional parliament led by the respected Socialist Workers Party.

There are also a small number of exceptions.According to gossip, when he got the news that Albert had disbanded the original parliament, the enraged Ludendorff directly turned the table.

After all, Ludendorff invested too much in the members of the former Congress, and he even took out a full 100 million marks of his private property, all of which were used for "political investment" in the members.And these investments were lost overnight because of Albert's outrageous "raid".

In addition, those officials who maintained friendly contact with him, seemed to have evaporated from the world, and all lost contact inexplicably.

The Ministry of Justice, the Ministry of the Interior, and the Ministry of Finance were once considered by Ludendorff to be the departments with the deepest penetration of his influence, but now there is not even a single person belonging to his own faction.

Albert's methods were too strong and too fast. In just one day, he solved all the dissidents in the major departments.

What is even more exasperating is that Hitler, the leader of the Socialist Workers Party, who had been on the same front as himself, was also with Reinhardt.But he, Ludendorff, didn't notice this until the moment Hitler took Ludendorff's few remaining secrets and defected to Zhang Chengtian.

When I learned that Hitler and Reinhardt's Socialist Workers Party naturally merged into one faction.Ludendorff smashed his favorite one at home, blue and white porcelain from the Orient.

From the very beginning when Reinhard defected to his subordinates, to Hitler's Socialist Workers Party finding their own alliances, and then to their opposition to themselves.

It seems that every opponent who is difficult to deal with now is separated from his own team.

Ludendorff was a little puzzled. Does everyone who can achieve great things like to come to himself to be plated with gold?

Shaking his head, Ludendorff gave up and continued thinking about this headache.

Next, Ludendorff's goal has become very obvious.Unite the noble consortium to overthrow the current unfavorable situation.Even if he couldn't make the situation completely favorable to him, he must not let Zhang Chengtian continue to gain power.

Ludendorff made up his mind, a gloomy light flashed in his eyes, he attracted his confidant Wade and said: "Wade, the person I trust the most now is you. Now I give you a task, immediately use my In name, secretly contact those large domestic consortiums."

After Ludendorff finished speaking, he paused, then gritted his teeth and said, "It's not just me who stumbled this time. The group of vampires stumbled no less than me. Now that the two parties have reached an agreement on their goals, we can temporarily cooperate."

Wade was obviously taken aback when he heard this, and then reminded Ludendorff in surprise: "General, will it go against your original intention to cooperate with those scumbags?"

It is no secret that Ludendorff hates the domestic Junkers and Jewish consortiums.

Once on September 1918, 9, at a regular meeting of the German General Staff.Ludendorff once cursed unreservedly, calling the many consortia in the country a bunch of damned vampires.Ludendorff is adamant that these men "stabbed in the back."

Ludendorff and many of his members believed that the Junker consortium was a disgrace to the Junker nobles, and they were not worthy to be compared with the Junker soldiers.And the numerous Jewish consortiums are the most despicable existence, the moths of Germany.

This is also the reason why Ludendorff came together with Karp and Hitler who had the same views in history.

But up to now, Ludendorff, blinded by the crisis in front of him, insisted on going his own way and chose to join forces with the major consortiums he once hated the most.He decided to take advantage of his remaining advantage and use his former hero's name to call on everyone to oppose Albert's dictatorship.

The aged Ludendorff interrupted Wade's reminder with a slow wave of his hand: "I have already made a decision to resolve the current crisis first no matter what. Once that Reinhardt gains power further, I will never stand up again Here's the chance."

As a bystander, Wade was very aware of Ludendorff's mistake at this moment.

As the leader of a radical group, Ludendorff can take advantage of the group's radical emotions and make every member willing to become his pawn.

However, once Ludendorff dared to risk the world and made a behavior that was contrary to the philosophy of this group.Then, he has completely failed.

Water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize it!Ludendorff, who has been losing ground in the overall situation, can't even stick to the last firm idea.This veteran general no longer has any advantage to speak of.

Wade felt a bit of sadness in his heart for this old general who lied and did not choose his way.Relying on this method, even if he finally defeated Reinhardt, Sickert, and even Albert, the winner would not be Ludendorff.

Without reminding Ludendorff again, Wade saluted the old general with a standard military salute: "Okay, general, I will faithfully carry out your orders."

Ludendorff nodded in satisfaction, and put his veined right hand on Wade's left shoulder: "Very good, I appreciate your sense of obedience."

After spending 30 minutes explaining his plan, as if thinking of something, Ludendorff didn't let go of Wade's shoulder, but squeezed slightly and said, "I hope you won't be like Reinhardt." I'm just as disappointed as those two bastards, Hitler and Hitler, or else..."

Before Ludendorff could finish speaking, Wade immediately replied loudly: "Don't worry, General, your will is my direction. This subordinate will definitely complete the task."
