Great Warlord: The Second Ancestor of the Empire

In addition to the signing of the Three Kingdoms Agreement and the mysterious Relief Society, which turned the tide and saved the American financial market. One more thing happened.

That is, New Zealand, located in the southern hemisphere, was classified as an autonomous territory by the Kingdom of John.

New Zealand is located in the southwest Pacific Ocean, across the sea from Australia.

New Zealand as a whole consists of the North and South Islands and Stewart Island.

It belongs to Australia's outer defense circle. After passing New Zealand, there is the endless Pacific Ocean.

New Zealand's geographical location is also very important. Controlling New Zealand means controlling Australia's eastern waters.

During this year, the Kingdom of John suddenly recognized New Zealand's independence, making it a dominion.

This has caused some consternation throughout Europe, especially the Hans Empire and a group of other allies, which have begun to advocate that this is a symbol of the decline of the John Empire.

Because according to their understanding, when a country recognizes its colonies as autonomous territories, it means that it does not have enough control over the area.

Suddenly, the morale of the entire Allied Powers was greatly boosted.

But is this really the actual situation?

Daxia Empire, capital, Longxiang Army Headquarters.

Lin Yi was sitting in the newly renovated conference room, quietly waiting for a guest.

The Yongxiang Army Headquarters was newly built recently.

Because Lin Yi felt that since a war was about to break out, Daxia would definitely be involved.

It is conceivable that he will have a lot to deal with in the future.

He can't always deal with affairs in his own Prince Rui's palace. He is not alone now like before.

There were too many people coming in and out of the palace, and the crowds were confusing. In addition, the three little ones in the family had grown up, and they were at the age where they were naughty and mischievous.

Therefore, Lin Yi approached Zhao Xu, asked for a piece of land, and built his own headquarters.

Within this general headquarters, it is divided into Longxiang Army General Headquarters, Yinglong Army General Headquarters and Silver Eagle General Headquarters.

The three armies are complete, and each army has its own headquarters.

However, Silver Eagle is still in Dunhuang now, and there are only a few staff in the headquarters.

The Yinglong fleet's mothership is in Penglai, and they only have one office at the headquarters.

Therefore, although this is the headquarters of the three armies, in fact, only the Longxiang Army is actually stationed here.

However, the other two have liaison officers here, so holding any joint meetings in the future will not be a problem.

Lin Yi is now in the conference room, waiting for a guest, or a partner.

Edmund is a direct member of the European Rothschild family, and the entire family is of Jewish descent.

They control the vast majority of Europe's financial industry. It can be said that they are all a group of extremely wealthy people.

There were rumors in later generations that they even controlled all the banks in America.

Lin Yi didn't want to delve into whether these rumors were true. He only knew that it was Edmund who took the initiative to find him and asked for cooperation.

Lin Yi didn't believe it at first, so he asked Fang Xiao to check the family's situation and then realized that all this was true.

Moreover, this family is not like the rumors. They are now in a lot of trouble.

First of all, because of the war, Edmund's family transferred the family business to America.

Originally, they thought they could quickly control Milician with the strength of their own family, but they did not expect that he would be jointly suppressed by other families.

This makes Edmund's family feel a little bit difficult to move forward in Millikin.

Moreover, Edmund and the others belong to the third generation of this family, and their business capabilities are not as strong as their father and grandfather.

Under the combined pressure of Europe and America, Edmond and the others were somewhat unable to hold on.

After all, their Jewish identity is not so popular throughout Europe and America.

Therefore, in such an environment, Edmund and the others need to find a strong ally.

And Daxia, an empire that had the largest domestic market in the world and was in the process of rising, naturally came into Edmund's eyes.

So Edmund took the initiative to find Lin Yi, hoping to cooperate with Lin Yi. Ask Lin Yi to allow them to invest in Daxia.

And what about Lin Yi?

Only a fool would agree!

On the surface, with Edmund's investment, Daxia's development will be rapid, but in reality?

Although Lin Yi didn't know much about this family, he knew one of their characteristics, that is, once they control most of the country's financial markets, they would have the final say in the country.

Look at the future generations of America. Isn’t this how the United States was controlled by these plutocratic families?

The so-called election is just a game between several families.

Capital is always greedy, and you cannot hope that capital will be kind enough to help you.

What's more, Edmund's family is of Jewish descent. And everyone knows what kind of virtue the Jews are.

Lin Yi did not dare to let this group of people control the economic lifeline of the empire, so he decisively rejected Edmund's investment.

But Lin Yi felt that not allowing them to invest in the empire did not mean that they could not cooperate with them.

After all, people like Edmund are very capable of making money.

If the empire wants to develop and surpass Europe and become the core of the world, it needs a lot of funds.

It is obvious that imperial taxation alone cannot achieve such an effect.

Therefore, Lin Yi proposed that the empire and Edmund's people should fund it and disrupt the Millican market.

As the saying goes, a horse cannot grow fat without a night of grass.

After Lin Yi spent two years of imperial tax revenue, totaling 4 million imperial silver dollars, he finally smashed the American market and made a huge profit of 20 billion silver dollars.

At the same time, the John Kingdom was also affected by this wave of financial crisis. Under Edmund's operation, New Zealand was given autonomy and the empire planted a nail in the southern hemisphere.

As a price, what Lin Yi needs to pay is 30% of the profit this time and a promise.

Lin Yi promised to help the Jews establish their own country after the war.

As for the location of their founding, Lin Yi initially thought of letting them go to Europe, preferably in the Rhine River area, between the Hans Empire and the Gallic Empire.

Lin Yi knew that based on what these people did in later generations, if they were placed between the Hans Empire and the Gallic Empire, they might become the most unstable existence in Europe.

Instead of the Balkans, it became Europe's new powder keg.

In this way, weren’t the hidden dangers of World War II laid in this way?

Of course, in order for Edmund and others to fully support the empire during World War I, Lin Yi told them to wait until the war was over and the empire won.

Only when the Empire becomes the final winner can the Empire have the ability to distribute the interests of Europe and help Edmund and others restore their country.

I have to say that even before the First World War, Lin Yi has already begun to prepare for World War II and dig holes for European countries. His intentions are really dark.

How do you say that? Anyone who plays ZZ has a dark heart. I will not deceive the ancients sincerely.
