1215: Chapter 203: The Most Profitable Business Model 1215: Chapter 203: The Most Profitable Business Model Politics has always been a trigger that sets off a chain of events, and the change in demands from Alpha Kingdom directly accelerated the alliance process among the five nations.
Sotis talking about money does not hurt feelings.
In politics, free is always the most expensive.
With compensation, it’s a fair trade.
The political status within the alliance remains equal.
Unconditional military help?
Alpha Kingdom dares to offer it, but the three kingdoms dare not accept it!
It’s easy to invite the gods but hard to send them away.
If things aren’t settled in advance, the deployed military instructors could easily beco military infiltrations.
With the entire military system branded with Alpha Kingdom’s mark, how can there be independence in the military, not to ntion in politics?
Once you beco a subordinate, it’s not sothing a little bit of food and money can resolve.
Only in a dire necessity would a great nation willingly submit to another.
Alpha Kingdom asks for the sky, and the three kingdoms have to pay on the ground.
From pricing talks, everyone knew that the establishnt of the Five Nations Alliance was only a matter of ti.
The most direct impact was the debt negotiation of Moxi Duchy; once everyone was about to be allies, it was tough for the creditors from the Three Kingdoms in the Central Continent to keep holding on!
For political reasons, they could only passively follow in the footsteps of Alpha Kingdom, forgo all interest on the loans, and accept the Moxi Duchy’s proposal to defer the repaynt of the principal.
Once a gap is opened from within the creditor alliance, subsequent problems are easier to handle.
Relying on playing poor and tragic, Moxi People continuously launch public relations campaigns towards all kinds of creditors.
This includes but is not limited to buying out negotiators and secretly promising benefits.
After various maneuvers, the creditors with smaller amounts began to agree to give up interest in favor of just getting their principal back.
People tend to follow others blindly; as more and more creditors compromise, the remaining creditors’ stances aren’t as firm.
Negotiating with a bankrupt governnt, it’s tough enough to get the principal back, let alone the interest.
The current governnt of Moxi Duchy is playing the role of penniless, needy flesh.
They have no money to offer and no life to spare.
Its neighbors are either from Different Races or its own allies; even with open debt default, there’s no fear of ard debt collection.
Being able to sit down and talk shows responsibility.
If pushed too hard, they might just lie down and let everything collapse, and no one can do anything about it.
So onlookers are secretly cursing the Moxi People for being foolish!
After the governnt’s financial bankruptcy, the state’s reputation is lost, and with no fear of ard debt collection, why bother continuing to pay the debts?
438 million in huge debt, the current Moxi Governnt can pay at most four million Gold Coins per year, it would take a hundred years to clear!
Others may not see it, but Derris, as the head of the Elf Delegation, sees it very clearly.
What Moxi Duchy is doing isn’t paying off debt; it is clearly paying protection money.
Ever since the debt crisis erupted, she has been subjected to joint pressure from the nations of Human Race.
Although this amount of money is nothing when distributed among many powers.
But it’s not about the money now!
Big powers also need to preserve their dignity; it’s easy to get addicted to lending money at high interest rates.
Apart from Moxi Duchy, they have many more clients.
Setting a precedent for debt default is absolutely unacceptable.
Otherwise, everyone’s cost of collecting debts will skyrocket.
It’s okay to delay the debt, even if future interest is lost, the previous interest inco doesn’t need to be returned.
For the leaders of the major powers, this deal is rely extending the period a bit and reducing the profit a bit, but they still profit on paper.
Money doesn’t matter; what’s crucial is to keep face and not let this beco a stain in everyone’s reign.
It can be said that Moxi Duchy single-handedly raised the borrowing threshold on the Continent of Aslante, letting everyone know that even nations can go bankrupt.
From now on, it will be impossible for nations to excessively borrow money without substantial collateral.
As an existence that maintains the face of nurous creditors, Moxi Duchy naturally cannot fall.
In this context, there’s not much the Elf Race can do.
Fortunately, internal issues arose in Moxi Duchy; otherwise, Derris wouldn’t know what to do.
“Respected One, big trouble!
Just now, representatives from Moxi People along with Alpha Kingdom, Black Forest Kingdom, Dante Kingdom, and South Coast Kingdom issued a joint announcent; from today onward, the five nations officially establish a joint defense alliance.”
Nina’s words startled Derris.
This is not just bad news, it’s practically catastrophic.
The alliances between the Three Kingdoms in the Central Continent and the Northern Continent Two Kingdoms are undoubtedly like a steel knife thrust into the Alien Coalition.
Together, the five Human Race nations are not simply a sum of 1 1 1 1 1=5.
Behind this are changes in war potential and strategic depth; the five interdependent nations are not as easy to bully as when they were fighting separately.
Not to ntion the Five Nations Alliance, even the initial alliance between Alpha Kingdom and Moxi Duchy caused significant trouble for the Elf Race.
At one point, Derris even doubted whether it was right to save ti by sparing the Moxi People and the alliance with Alpha Kingdom during the previous continental war.
This doubt didn’t last long; even if ti could be reversed, they would still do the sa.
If they had engaged with the two nations, it’s likely that their allies in the Central Continent would have turned to historical dust.
Without these allies’ support, even if they and the Orcs had occupied the entire Northern Continent, they wouldn’t be able to stop the Human Race’s advance northward.
