This financial crisis in Austria-Hungary ca and went quickly. When the governnt put enough money into the market, the market soon started to recover.
Ferdinand, who had eaten and drunk his fill at the capital feast, now set off on a trip to London.
It's ti to get out of the spotlight. Ferdinand has made a na for himself in Austria-Hungary in the past two years. He has just made a fortune in the capital feast.
It's too obvious. It's not Ferdinand's style. It is good to take this chance to go out for a walk and settle the matter of the gold mine, by the way.
After Ferdinand was reborn, he sent people out to buy land in the first place. He took many famous minerals found in the future into his arms.
Many places are in poor condition. There is no mining value, which occupies and disregards. However, the several open-pit gold mines can not also leave it!
Who knows if soone will find out in advance and take the gold mine inside out. Tens of millions of pounds of revenue are enough to drive soone crazy.
Ferdinand, who is not strong enough, is ready to find a strong partner. He must also ensure his own interests, hence the trip to London.
Queen Victoria with her full na: Alexandrina Victoria (May 24, 1819 - January 22, 1901). She is the daughter of Prince Edward (Duke of Kent and Strathearn). She succeeded to the throne at the age of 18 and was regarded as a national symbol.
Queen Victoria reigned for 63 years and 7 months. This reign was longer than any other British monarch and longer than any other female monarch in history. It is known as the Victorian era.
It was a ti when Britain enjoyed great industrial, cultural, political, scientific, and military success.
Queen Victoria was the last monarch of the Hanoverian dynasty. Her son and heir to the throne, Edward VII, belonged to the Saxe-Coburg-Gotha dynasty.
The Victorian era is the most glorious period of Britain. It was the center of world trade at this ti. The British proudly said:
'The plains of North Arica and Russia are our cornfields; Chicago and Odessa are our granaries. Canada and the Baltic Sea are our woodlands. Australia and West Asia have our sheep pastures; Argentina and the western grasslands of North Arica have our cattle.
Peru brings its silver; South African and Australian gold flows to London. The Indians and Chinese grow tea for us, and our coffee, sugar cane, and spice plants are spread throughout the Indies.
Spain and France are our vineyards; the diterranean is our orchards. The United States is our cotton fields.'
Ferdinand, who arrived in London at the beginning of December, from Vienna, already almost after Christmas, had just disembarked when he t his good friend and cousin, Albert Edward von Saxe-Coburg-Gotha, Edward VII, who had co to et him.
The two of them can beco friends, mainly because they have shared habits and live an unruly life. Both are deviants among the aristocracy.
Edward welcod Ferdinand's arrival and didn't rule out that it would help him share so of the bla. After all, the feeling of two people being punished is not the sa as one being punished. If not, it would not be needed for a Crown Prince to greet Ferdinand personally.
"Ferdinand, my friend, what took you so long to co?" Edward shouted at Ferdinand.
"Damn, it's not like you don't know how far it is! The wind and waves at sea are just too hateful!" said Ferdinand with a grumble.
...
It was Ferdinand's main strength to have a good chat and talk about things. The two n naturally had a good talk. He first had to visit Queen Victoria according to protocol.
Buckingham Palace, well, despite its high popularity in the future world, but Ferdinand did not think there was anything great. He may have been already imrsed in the world. In his mind, it was similar to a normal palace.
To the paintings and art along the way to his eyes. Here will be gathered around the world's antique relics, like a work of art furniture, so Ferdinand amazed.
Edward seed happy with Ferdinand's behavior, opened his mouth, and said, "If you like it, I can consider giving you so. However, now we have to go and pay our respects to my mother."
It pulled Ferdinand back to reality and laughed awkwardly. It was a bit shaful how he behaved just now.
"Ferdinand, it's a pleasure to welco you here as a guest!" Victoria said kindly.
But for Ferdinand, it was no less than a day in life. Victoria's aura is too powerful. He now has so pity for Edward. With such a strong mother, he thought it would be a hard ti.
...
Victoria, who is very old and has limited energy, soon let Ferdinand go and spent the night at the usual welco party.
The next day, Ferdinand and Edward let loose and began to explore London.
"Ferdinand, I heard that you have made a lot of money in the past two years?" Edward said with envy.
"Not too much. It's just a few million pounds, which is a small amount for the royal family!" Ferdinand said blandly.
Edward's envy is still a bit strange. It's not easy to get money when you are the heir of the world's ruler. If anyone wants to do sothing, it's a good source of money.
"Sure, a few million pounds is nothing to the royal family! But to it's enormous!" Edward said with a grudge.
Thinking back, it seems that the one in front of him is not having a good ti. He and Victoria are in a bad state of relations. Although he is the Crown Prince, he is not allowed to join in political affairs, and his expenses are restricted to death. He also likes cruises and horse racing and often throws a lot of money. It's normal to have trouble with finances.
"God, are you kidding ! The Crown Prince of the British Empire will actually have no money. Don't tell that with the hundreds of millions of pounds of assets of the royal family, you will have no money?" Ferdinand said in pretend hyperbole.
In fact, he was happy in his heart. Since you are short of money, it is good to do. At once, the plan changed, and Edward's cooperation seems to be the sa. That bunch of officials in the colony who are not brain-dead, no one should dare to make things difficult for the Crown Prince's assets!
No matter how it looks, Edward is also more foolish than Victoria. The price to pay is much less, and the gold mine sent to the door. How can you possibly give it up!
"Financial rules, no more than ten thousand pounds per month! You know my expenses are high. How can this amount be enough?" Edward said with a grumble.
"Wouldn't you invest?" Ferdinand asked fitfully.
"Why not? But with this little capital I have, I can't get much of a share in it!" Edward said with a growl.
"Yes, I have found a gold mine. Are you interested again?" Ferdinand said with a smile.
"Supermarkets? I've opened a few of those, but the profits aren't great?" Edward said bluntly.
Ferdinand cursed a lot. You have to pirate my ideas, but also in front of , who is the master to complain about the profit is not high.
"Of course not, I'm talking about a gold mine. And an open-pit one at that! Do you understand ? Edward!" Ferdinand growled.
"Oh my God, I'm not kidding! If you have a gold mine you won't go dig it yourself. Why do you co to ?" Edward said in surprise.
"Damn, don't you know it takes a lot of manpower to dig the mines? You have to know how high the wages of European workers are now? Of course I don't want to pay you for your work!" Ferdinand explained with a growl.
"What! You're not even going to pay for the work! You dirty capitalist! I'm not going to let you get away with this! I'm going to disown you!" Edward said angrily.
Ferdinand said with a sneer, "Co on, don't give a fake. There are no outsiders here, no need to act! This is the first ti I've heard that the Crown Prince of England cares about the lives of the natives! So..."
"Wait a minute, I told you so my friend. It's not just about slaves, how much do I need to pay for them?" Edward was like a different person.
Then the two began to bargain it. In the end, the two reached an agreent and jointly set up United Mining Co., Ltd.
As the gold mine owner, Ferdinand contributed 300,000 pounds, taking 60% of the shares. Edward, who did not pay a penny, was in charge of solving the workers' problems, giving protection to the company, and solving all foreign troubles, taking 40% of the shares.
The first target given by Ferdinand was the Coolgardie mines.
Coolgardie: The Coolgardie Gold Mine is one of the two largest gold-producing areas across Australia. The Coolgardie Gold Mine is located about 40 kiloters west of Kalgoorlie, Western Australia.
The discovery of 554 ounces of gold in 1892 triggered the last wave of the gold rush worldwide. Nearly 16,000 people flooded into Coolgardie at the ti, making it almost the third-largest city in Australia.
The mine has a reserve of around 1.2 million tonnes grading 1.7 g/t and contains up to 69,000 ounces of gold. During the first 28 months of mine life, 65,000 ounces of gold can be reclaid from three shallow ore bodies.
