My Italian

"Your Majesty, according to our statistics, this batch of treasures contains 33.421 tons of gold, including 341 kilograms of various gemstones, and 241 kilograms of diamonds, the largest of which is 67 carats. In addition, we have also removed a lot of agate and Buddha statues..."

Carlo listened to the palace chief, Alejad, who was counting the specific data of this batch of wealth, and his long list was very imposing at first glance. "Tell me about the total value of this batch of wealth."

"According to our estimates, the total value of this batch of wealth is 672 million lire, but there are too many religious symbols among them, and the one that can be sold directly is 391 million lire, and the others can only be sold slowly."

Carlo understood the meaning of the palace director. At present, only 391 million lire can be used for this batch of wealth. If you want to obtain a complete 672 million lire, it will take at least several years, especially those gold products with Hindu symbols. . Now because of the bloodbath of the Padmanabha Swami Temple, the whole of India is in trouble. In order to appease these people, the British are trying their best to track down the murderer. At this time, a large number of gold coins with Hindu symbols appeared. Silverware, doesn't this indicate who the murderer is?

Unless he melted the gold products with religious symbols and turned them into gold nuggets, it would be impossible to take all of them, but the consequence of doing so would be that the value of these treasures would be greatly reduced, and Carlo was unwilling to do so.

Since this is the case, then he can currently use only 391 million lire. However, Carlo does not intend to use these wealth now. It is thanks to the blessing of the Internet that he can know this temple. At that time, there was a lot of noise, and the treasure of Padmanabha Swami Temple is known as the first temple of the temple. A treasure. Of course, Carlo is the same as most people. He only remembers the number one, but he doesn't know who the second and third are, let alone the others.

He didn't know that he would encounter time-travel. If he knew, he would directly memorize the famous treasures from all over the world like taking notes before an exam. Wouldn't there be a fortune that would make all countries in the world jealous.

But there are no ifs in everything, so Carlo knows about windfalls. Since there is only this windfall, Carlo must make it have the greatest use value. This greatest use value is not only for Italy, but also for him.

At present, Carlo seems that only the alternating current system that Tesla is working on is eligible for him to use the money. So he is not in a hurry at all, he still needs to wait for good news from Tesla.

Although Carlo was willing to wait, there was someone who didn't want to wait. The person who didn't want to wait was Prime Minister Depretis.

Shortly after listening to the report of the headmaster, Allejad, before Carlo came out of the excitement, a guard came to report. "Your Majesty, here comes the Prime Minister Depretis."

"Quickly please."

Although Carlo does not know the purpose of the Prime Minister, Carlo still needs to give enough respect to this powerful Prime Minister.

It's just that after hearing the Prime Minister's words, Carlo intends to take back the respect he gave.

"Your Majesty, I heard that the guards have just been dispatched to protect a group of properties to Rome."

As for the Prime Minister's words, Carlo does not intend to deny it, because it is impossible to hide this matter.

"Yes, because the family made a large amount of business abroad before, so I asked the guards to protect it."

Although it is impossible to hide it from others, Carlo is not stupid enough to admit that he got a windfall, and it is a good idea to shirk it into the family business.

Facing the explanation given by Carlo, Prime Minister DePretis stopped asking questions. He immediately took up his own words and said. "Your Majesty, you are also very aware of Italy's finances. We made huge concessions on tariffs in order to reach an alliance with Germany, so the financial situation is very bad."

Carlo is also aware of what Prime Minister DePretis said. Last year, due to the reduction of tariffs, Italy's total tariff revenue fell by 3%.

Don't think that this is a small decrease. You must know that last year's imports from Italy increased by 9.1% compared with the previous year. The largest increase was the goods from Germany, which increased by 17%. Since the import value from Germany exceeded the average, it must be It will squeeze the commodity markets of other countries. Among them, France has the largest decrease. Italy's imports decreased by 27% last year, while imports from the UK also decreased by 4.1% due to the surge in German imports. other countries have

Moreover, behind the huge increase in German imports, it is not only Britain and France that suffers, other countries are affected more or less, but it is not as obvious as Britain and France.

In addition, another party is also affected, that is, Italian companies. At present, there are a large number of German products with high quality and low price. Those Italian companies of the same type that received tariff protection before also suffered heavy losses. The number of companies closing down in Italy is now 3.7% higher than in previous years. This number does not look small. This represents the loss of thousands of jobs in Italy, which has an impact on all aspects of Italy. Although the Italian government can still cope with this kind of impact, if German goods continue to hit Italian local companies, it will be very difficult for the government to deal with it.

Carlo thought that the Prime Minister came with the royal grant, so he spoke immediately. "So your Excellency the Prime Minister intends to postpone the funding for the royal family?"

At present, Italy's allocation to the royal family is 15 million lire per year. Although it is not as good as other wealthy countries, it is not bad for Italy, so Carlo will think that the prime minister has this idea.

"Your Majesty has been thinking too much. It is the government's responsibility to support the royal family. As the Prime Minister, how could I make such a decision?"

Carlo was relieved by Depretis' words, but he was still too happy, and the Prime Minister continued to speak. "Your Majesty, the government intends to issue a national debt to ease the financial pressure. If the royal family can take the lead in setting an example, everyone will surely feel His Majesty's kindness to the people."

After Depretis finished speaking, he looked at Carlo expectantly. In the end, his face is not as thick as the Prime Minister. Facing the Prime Minister who was staring at him, Carlo couldn't bear it and asked.

"Then how big is the government planning to issue this treasury bond?"

"Your Majesty, the government intends to issue 500 million lire for this national debt. If Your Majesty can buy 100 to 200 million, it will surely be admired by the world."

One or two billion?

Carlo looked at the prime minister who was shameless and considered the royal family in front of him, and wanted to spit on his face.

You must know that the royal family has also purchased government bonds before, which is basically just a few million liras. I didn't expect that Prime Minister Depretis would actually open his mouth and ask for one or two hundred million lire. Why didn't he grab it.

Although he couldn't say that, Carlo felt that he couldn't hold back his anger, so he said it coldly. "I'm sorry, I have to live up to the Prime Minister's expectations. At present, the royal family can't make so much money, unless the royal family sells the property. But if you want to sell one or two hundred million lire, the Prime Minister may have to wait two or three years."

In the face of Carlo's cold refusal, Prime Minister Depretis was not angry, but he shook his head and said. "Actually, Your Majesty doesn't need to be so troublesome. You only need to sell part of the treasure from the temple, which is enough to raise one or two hundred million lire."

The Prime Minister's words made Carlo stare at him. In the face of Carlo's desire to eat people's eyes, Depretis accepted it, and the atmosphere in the room became more and more depressed.

Although Carlo stared at the Prime Minister, he kept thinking about which joint went wrong and let the Prime Minister know about it.

Although Carlo does not think that the Prime Minister has the courage to disclose this matter, it is a very troublesome matter after all. Think about it and know how much damage to Carlo if such news spreads that a monarch robbed a temple in India, and of course, how much damage to Italy's image would also be done by doing so. Not only is Europe causing a sensation, it is estimated that the world will be a sensation. Moreover, this incident will definitely be recorded in history, and the damage to Carlo will be more serious~www.wuxiaspot.com~ However, considering the time constraints, Carlo gave up thinking about what went wrong. This can be discussed next, and now the priority needs to be Cover this up.

"The royal family can only take out 80 million liras, which is the limit we can take out."

"No, I think the royal family can afford 150 million lire."

Soon the two entered into a bargaining easing, and finally reached an agreement on the price of 110 million lire.

Depretis left the palace with a satisfied expression, followed by an angry Carlo.

In fact, the Prime Minister found out that this was an accident. At that time, one of the carriages in charge of transportation was broken. While repairing by the roadside, a squire found a crate that was not covered tightly. The curious attendant glanced quietly and found that there were some gold products with an Indian style inside. The attendant also knew that it was a big deal and did not dare to make a statement, but after drinking with friends, he accidentally said it. mouth. And his friend happened to be working in the Prime Minister's Office, so he felt that he would report to the Prime Minister soon.

And Depretis didn't know how much the treasure Carlo obtained was worth. The prime minister, who was devastated by the fiscal deficit, thought it was an opportunity, so he used this news to defraud Carlo.

In the end, it still suffers from the loss of experience, but on the other hand, it is not nothing, at least the money is divided, then the Prime Minister is obliged to ensure that this news cannot be known. So in the end, the talkative attendant was transferred to another place, and the one who made great contributions to the Prime Minister's Office was also transferred from the Prime Minister's Office and was sent to Sicily to serve as the head of the district.

This incident is a perfect cover up, the only thing that is damaged is that the funds in Carlo's hands have shrunk.
