Vienna palace 维也纳宫 The Franz wedding had been put on the agenda officially. On this issue, may be beyond control he himself to take responsibility, the new Holy Roman Empire 50 million people wait. 弗朗茨的婚礼已经正式被提上了日程。在这个问题上,可由不得他自己做主了,新神圣罗马帝国五千万民众都翘首以盼。 The lucky day must elect, if the day not good overcast sky and rainstorm again and again, to tell everyone God not to like this pair of rookie? 黄道吉日必须要选的,万一日子不好阴云密布、暴雨连连,岂不是告诉大家上帝不喜欢这对新人？ Puts in the ordinary families, encounters this situation also to sigh the words of unlucky, crazy follower may also cancel the wedding. If placed on the royal family, not to mention, this is the huge political scandal. 搁在普通人家,遇到这种情况也要感叹晦气,狂信徒的话还有可能取消婚礼。要是放在了王室身上,更不用说了,这就是巨大的政治丑闻。 Although the influence of theocracy had greatly reduced, however conservative Austria is benefitting the area, this feudal superstition was still in vogue. 尽管神权的影响力已经大大降低了,但是在保守的奥地利地区,这种封建迷信仍然盛行。 After father of one group of theologian concurrent job meteorologists studied, finally this lucky day decides on March 12 , 1855. 经过了一帮神学家兼职气象学家的神父研究过后,最后这个黄道吉日定在了1855年3月12日。 The preparatory work had started, Franz also has to inquire occasionally, shows him to this marrying attaching great importance. 筹备工作已经开始了,弗朗茨也不得不偶尔去过问一下,以示他对这次联姻的重视。 The marriage is a good deed, particularly with the person who like. Good, Franz acknowledged one sentiment to Princess Helen are common, is to Emperor, can marry not a repugnant person to be the wife to be even happy. 结婚是一件好事,尤其是和一个自己喜欢的人。好吧,弗朗茨承认自己对海伦公主的感情一般,可是对一个皇帝来说,能够娶一个不讨厌的人做妻子就算是幸福了。 How long the Franz good mood not to have continued, adds the matter that stops up to come. 弗朗茨的好心情没有持续多久,添堵的事情就来了。 „ Your majesty, we purchased the plan fail of gold, gold price jump in international market 20%, if continued to buy up owes. “陛下,我们收购黄金的计划失败了,国际市场上的黄金价格暴涨了百分之二十,如果继续买入就太亏了。 Investigates and discovers after us, in this international market the gold rises in prices plans by the English single-handedly, the goal is to obstruct us buys up the gold. ” The First Lord of the Treasury tired said 经过我们调查发现,这次国际市场上黄金涨价是由英国人一手策划的,目的就是为了阻扰我们买入黄金。”财政大臣一脸疲惫的说 Can look, he should many days not have a good sleep to think. 看得出来,他应该好些日子没睡好觉了。 At critical moment that the currency value reforms, the English raises the gold price, hinders the Austria advantage to buy up, obviously harbors evil intentions. In this matter, the First Lord of the Treasury pressure that the leading currency value reformed could be imagined. 在币值改革的关键时刻,英国人抬高黄金价格,阻碍奥地利买入,显然是不怀好意。发生了这种事情,主导币值改革的财政大臣压力可想而知。 A Franz brow wrinkle, in the normal condition the English does not have the truth to obstruct the new Holy Roman Empire currency value to reform, the member of gold standard system increases, to them is also good. 弗朗茨眉头一皱,正常情况下英国人没有道理阻扰新神圣罗马帝国币值改革,金本位体系的成员增加,对他们来说也是有好处的。 „Investigated thoroughly the goal that the English did that?” “查清楚英国人这么做的目的了么？” Franz asked that he does not believe the English did, to seek money. If to raise the gold price, scoops up one, then unit price slow on line. 弗朗茨问道,他可不相信英国人这么干,就是为了牟利。如果只是为了抬高黄金价格,从中捞上一笔,那么将单价缓慢就行了。 So long as the increase is not too big, to increase the gold reserve, the Vienna government also did recognize? 只要涨幅不是太大,为了增加黄金储备,维也纳政府也就认了？ Enhanced 20% all of a sudden, such disparate disparity, the idiot will continue to buy. 一下子提高了百分之二十,这么悬殊的差距,白痴才会继续买。 Enhances the golden forcefully the price, has the price. The capitalists who hype the gold price whether can gain regardless of the time being, but after golden appreciation, follows to appreciate with the pound that the gold links up with. 强行提高黄金的价格,也不是没有代价的。炒作黄金价格的资本家们能否赢利姑且不论,但是黄金升值后,和黄金挂钩的英镑也跟着升值了。 This was equivalent to the pound to appreciate all of a sudden 20%, such big increase, the industry and commerce product cost of Britain naturally followed greatly to enhance, wanted to continue to maintain the competitiveness in the international trade to be difficult. 这相当于英镑一下子升值了百分之二十,这么大的涨幅,英国的工商业产品成本自然跟着大幅度提高,在国际贸易中想要继续保持竞争力就难了。 The British capitalists were tired of living, does the preparation want to play itself? 难道英国资本家们活腻了,准备要自己玩死自己？ From beginning to end, Franz has not thought this is the London government plan. Does is kills the enemy 1000 to damage 800 completely, the matter of harming others but not benefit oneself who does? 至始至终,弗朗茨都没有想过这是伦敦政府策划的。这么干完全是杀敌一千自损八百,损人不利己的事情谁干啊？ A Carl face awkward reply: „It is said to prevent us purchases the gold, keeping us from collecting enough gold to make the reserve.” 卡尔一脸为难的回答道:“据说是为了阻止我们收购黄金,让我们无法筹集到足够的黄金做储备金。” This view, he himself does not believe. Austria benefits is also the established empire, the traditional background has. If the government is willing to pay the price, internally can collect the gold reserve of gold standard. 这个说法,他自己都不信。奥地利也是老牌帝国,传统的底蕴还是有的。如果政府愿意付出代价,在国内都可以筹集金本位的黄金储备。 So long as the credibility of government is high enough, obtained the approval of market, even if the gold reserve slightly has insufficient, same can complete the gold standard to reform. 只要政府的信誉够高,获得了市场的认可,就算是黄金储备略有不足,一样可以完成金本位改革。 Distributes the paper money in the final analysis, must depend on the credibility of government, the Russia person is the negative example, they are not worried about the reserve to be insufficient, the paper ruble that but they distributed before no one is convinced. 说到底发行纸币,还是要靠政府的信誉,俄国人就是反面例子,他们不担心储备金不够,可是他们之前发行的纸卢布还是没人买账。 Can't the English beat the confidence of market to new Holy Roman Empire directly? If they have this strength, Near East in time of war they take to threaten the Vienna government. 英国人总不能直接击垮市场对新神圣罗马帝国的信心吧？要是他们有这实力,近东战争时期他们早就拿出来威胁维也纳政府了。 Franz sneered was saying: „ Continued to check, cannot buy the gold even. We were prepared in any case early, the gold that the currency value reformed already reluctantly enough. 弗朗茨冷笑着说:“继续查,买不到黄金就算了。反正我们早有准备,币值改革的黄金已经勉强够了。 The remaining vacancies are not big, at the worst uses the national exchange of gold and silver, the English had the strength to raise the price of European gold dealings market, I do not believe that they were capable of raising the gold price of the world. 剩下的缺额不大,大不了去使用金银的国家兑换,英国人有实力抬高了欧洲黄金交易市场的价格,我不相信他们有能力抬高全世界的黄金价格。 However must make to continue to buy up the golden the stance, making the English continue to maintain the golden high, how long having a look at them to support! ” 不过还是要做出继续买入黄金的架势,让英国人继续维持黄金的高位,看看他们能够撑多久！” The information not unobstructed is this age biggest disease, in the news not quick area, the gold silver ratio is still maintaining the original design. 信息不通畅是这个年代最大的弊病,在消息不灵通的地区,金银比价依然维持着原样。 Must raise the gold price of the world, only if the English maintains golden top digit year, otherwise many areas outside Europe, cannot respond. 要抬高全球的金价,除非英国人维持黄金高位数年时间,不然欧洲之外的很多地区,根本就反应不过来。 If Britain really did, Franz smiled. At the worst the gold standard reform time will tow in the future for several years, this does not worry, one year of early one year is not late fatal. 要是英国真这么干了,弗朗茨就笑了。大不了金本位改革时间往后拖上几年,这个又不着急,晚一年早一年又不致命。 Does not know that the industry and commerce of Britain can support, the production cost that because the currency value rise creates increases, must reduce the British commodity inevitably significantly the international competitiveness. 就是不知道英国的工商业能不能撑得住,因为币值上涨造成的生产成本增加,势必要大幅度削减英国商品的国际竞争力。 Naturally, the profit of this age ultramarine trade is quite big, Franz believes that the capitalists take that big risk to conduct the ocean trade, 20% profits have. 当然,这个年代海外贸易的利润都比较大,弗朗茨相信资本家们冒着那么大的风险进行远洋贸易,百分之二十的利润还是有的。 Does not rise in prices to maintain the commodity competition strength, can achieve. However the trade in continental Europe, the profit not necessarily was so big. 不涨价保持商品竞争力,还是可以做到的。不过欧洲大陆上的贸易,利润就未必有那么大了。 Even the English is the world's first industrial power, but did not mean that each domain they can get the advantage, these industries may be unable to bear this attack. 即便是英国人是世界第一工业强国,可并不是说每一个领域他们都能够占优势,这些产业可受不了这个打击。 Franz even once gave birth must cook up the high pound, attacks the British industry and commerce the thought that pinched out by him instantaneously. 弗朗茨甚至一度生出了要炒高英镑,打击英国工商业的念头,瞬间又被他掐灭了。 Benefits this capital on Austria, if really gambles in the money market and British capital directly, the lost possibility is almost nine nine. 就奥地利这点儿资本,真要是在金融市场和英国资本正面博弈,输的可能性几乎是九层九。 London 伦敦 Granville Cabinet was scared, raising the gold price is they do, but they have not prepared to jack so many one time! 格兰维尔内阁傻眼了,抬高黄金价格是他们干的,可是他们没有准备一次抬升这么多啊！ As scheduled, they raise several points, making the Vienna government give way before difficulties, accepts their conditions, may not have to prepare to make the gold price jump so many. 按照原计划,他们只是抬高几个点,让维也纳政府知难而退,接受他们的条件罢了,可没有准备让黄金价格飙涨这么多。 Very regrettable, they neglected in this world also to have community- speculator. 很遗憾,他们忽略了这个世界上还有一个群体-投机者。 The British domestic capital is excessively abundant is not a day two days, now the US and Austria benefit the rapid growth of economy, cannot leave the help of British capital. 英国国内资本过盛已经不是一天两天,现在美国、奥地利经济的高速增长,都离不开英国资本的帮助。 This government raises the gold price, enjoyed everyone's praise, coming up that this does not rub. The gold silver ratio rapidly rises, then went beyond the control. 这次政府抬高黄金价格,又受到了大家的追捧,这不就蹭蹭的上去了。金银比价迅速上升,然后就超出了控制。 Is placed in front of the London government, only then two roads, sell off a number of gold either immediately, eases price disturbance in the capital market ; Either depreciates the silver, the silver price fell, then the present high exchange was also more normal. 摆在伦敦政府面前的只有两条路,要么立即抛售一批黄金,平息资本市场上的价格风波;要么把白银贬值,白银价格下跌了,那么现在的高兑换比也就正常了。 The reason of gold now everyone supports is- the new Holy Roman Empire gold standard reforms. 现在大家热捧的黄金的一个原因就是-新神圣罗马帝国金本位改革。 Once the Vienna government completed the currency value reform, new Holy Roman Empire will definitely not have so many silver, these silver flowed in the market, creating the price of silver drops sharply is inevitable. 一旦维也纳政府完成了币值改革,新神圣罗马帝国肯定不会持有那么多白银,这些白银流入了市场,造成银价大跌是必然的。 The vision of speculators is keen, they in most basic the material through the hand, judged that the future silver price will fall, started to take action. 投机者们的眼光是敏锐的,他们通过手中最基本的资料,判断出了未来白银价格会下跌,就开始行动了。 To a certain extent, even London government anything does not do, this situation will happen, gold and silver exchange compared with the rise is the general trend. 某种程度上来说,就算是伦敦政府什么也不做,这种情况还是还是会发生,金银兑换比上涨是大势所趋。 This decision is not good to do, a slight move in one part that may affect the whole situation. 这个决定不好做,牵一发而动全身。 Sells off the gold to subside the disturbance stable pound currency value, then hinders the Vienna government to buy up the plan of gold to go bankrupt, in the future will want to draw new Holy Roman Empire to join their pounds- golden system, must pay a bigger price inevitably. 抛售黄金平息风波稳定英镑币值,那么阻碍维也纳政府买入黄金的计划就破产,未来想要拉新神圣罗马帝国加入他们的英镑-黄金体系,势必要付出更大的代价。 Naturally also has the harvest, the London government will gain one in this action, can make up for their injured minds. 当然也不是没有收获,伦敦政府会在这次行动中赚上一笔,可以弥补他们受伤的心灵。 Let the silver depreciate must consider the consequence, most direct was the silver standard state money depreciated, response economical was these national exports of commodities, will become more competitive. 让白银贬值也要考虑后果,最直接的就是银本位国家货币贬值了,反应的经济上的就是这些国家商品出口,将变得更加有竞争力。 Under is in inverse proportion, will affect the British domestic industry and commerce products outlet, in turn affects the British economy. 此消彼长之下,又会波及到英国国内的工商业产品出口,进而影响到英国经济。 Prime Minister Granville anxious asking: „What does Ministry of Finance have to plan, eases this disturbance?” 格兰维尔首相焦急的问:“财政部有什么计划,平息这一场风波？” Nothing hesitant, First Lord of the Treasury George Grey gave the answer: „ Prime minister, the best way sells off the gold that we buy up now, lets the market return normalization. 没有任何犹豫,财政大臣乔治-格雷给出了答案:“首相阁下,现在最好的办法还是抛售掉我们买入的黄金,让市场回归正常化。 This is affects the smallest approach on the domestic economy, because we are the low price buy up, now undersells also to gain one. 这是对国内经济影响最小的做法,由于我们是低价买入的,现在抛售还可以赚上一笔。 And is quick, now the Vienna government still has not given up purchasing the plan of gold, this simply in the nerve of exciting speculators. 并且还必须要快,现在维也纳政府仍然没有放弃购买黄金的计划,这简直就是在刺激投机者们的神经。 They had the possibility to discover very much our plan, makes the stance of exerting its utmost now intentionally, to look at our jokes. 他们很有可能已经发现了我们的计划,现在故意做出势在必得的架势,就是为了看我们的笑话。 The time of if delaying grew, more speculators joined, when the time comes we wanted to ease this disturbance to be difficult. ” 如果拖的时间长了,更多的投机者加入了进去,到时候我们想要平息这场风波就难了。” The reserve of golden and release currency that the government buys up is completely two concepts, even conducts by two different systems. 政府买入的黄金和发行货币的储备金完全是两个概念,甚至还是由两个不同体系进行的。 In the gold standard time, the decision reduction reserve that the government cannot take for granted, or increases the reserve, these must act according to the physical demand. 在金本位时代,政府是不能想当然的决定减少储备金,或者是增加储备金,这些都必须要根据实际需求进行。 Takes action rashly the consequence, the London government has felt. A wrong signal, triggers coming in swarms of speculators, the final result is disastrous. 冒然采取行动的后果,伦敦政府已经感受到了。一个错误的信号,引发投机者们的蜂拥而至,最终的结果都是灾难性的。 Who lets the gold passes the hard currency, will look like in many people will not depreciate greatly, even if pounded in the hand, where will not owe to goes. 谁让黄金是通硬货币,在很多人看来根本就不会大贬值,就算是砸在了手上,也不会亏到哪里去。 Hesitant over and over, Prime Minister Granville made decided: „ No matter what, must first ease the gold price disturbance, lives in the pound stably the currency value. 犹豫了再三,格兰维尔首相做出了决定:“不管怎么样,都先要平息金价风波,稳定住英镑的币值。 Ministry of Finance starts to sell off the gold immediately, with the domestic financial group communication, we need their help! ” 财政部立即开始抛售黄金,和国内的财团沟通,我们需要他们的帮助！” Although knows that this must pay many prices, Prime Minister Granville chooses to seek the financial group to help, otherwise the power of only London government is very difficult to ease the disturbance in a short time. 尽管知道这要付出不少代价,格兰维尔首相还是选择寻求财团帮助,不然单凭伦敦政府的力量恐怕很难在短时间内平息风波。
