Chapter 818 The Invincible Man
On the surface, the German economy has surpassed that of Britain and France and is fully recovering.
The German people have not enjoyed the dividends of economic recovery. Their money has been taken away by the Hebrew consortium that controls finance. The lives of the German people have still not improved.
The Weimar government tried to change this unfair distribution model, trying to imitate Russia in setting up a security system to distribute more profits to the bottom German people in order to ease Germany's domestic conflicts.
This decision, which was very beneficial to the Hebrew Consortium, was strongly opposed by the Hebrew Consortium.
The reason of the Hebrew Consortium is still "natural selection and survival of the fittest". Those Germans who cannot make money simply do not deserve to live and deserve to die.
After George learned about this situation, he didn’t know what to say.
The Hebrews were so inexperienced in managing the country. They simply did not realize that if ordinary German people were made unable to survive, the Germans would overturn the table.
That’s right——
Capital knows no borders.
If the Germans flipped the table, the Hebrews, with their wealth, would be welcomed in whatever country they went to.
The premise is that you can take the money away.
In fact, some Hebrews are already trying to transfer their wealth abroad, and Russia is one of the destinations.
No wonder some people in Russia are clamoring that the financial market should be opened.
Without opening up finance, are we going to let the Hebrews, who are best at finance, go to factories and work honestly?
During Felix's time, Russia had very strict controls on naturalization applications for Hebrews. Unless they were willing to join the Orthodox Church, they were not allowed to acquire Russian citizenship.
Guchkov wanted to loosen restrictions on the Hebrews.
“We have to admit the economic capabilities of the Hebrews. Hebrews who apply for Russian citizenship usually have a certain financial strength. They and those who only know skills but can even buy a house People who can afford it are different and can bring us more funds.”
Guchkov’s reasons are also very good.
“Are you short of money?”
George was curious. Russia's finances have always been healthy and are among the best in the world.
“It’s not a shortage, but if we have more money, we can do more things——”
Guchkov’s eyes dodge, and most of the time his purpose is not simple.
" - Well, old Carl has a plan for the Hebrews. The Hebrews in Germany will soon be in trouble. If we refuse this part of the funds, the wealth will flow to the United States. "
Guchkov admitted that his purpose was to let the dogs out.
The German people may be a mob, but elites like Old Karl cannot allow the Hebrews to harm Germany like this.
Old Carl is still very gentle and only asks for a change in the distribution model.
Next, Old Karl will discover that the greedy Hebrews will not accept any change.
When old Karl realized that he could not shake the Hebrew group no matter what method he used.
Then it will be Mustache’s turn to take action.
"We have the Hebrew Autonomous Prefecture, which can accommodate many Hebrews-"
Guchkov now begins to consider issues from a global perspective, no longer limited to one city or one place.
Up to now since the establishment of the autonomous prefecture, the population is still less than 10,000, and most of them are Russians.
So what the Hebrews want is not power at all, but privileges.
The "Balfour Declaration" also promised to help the Hebrews establish a country. Rothschild loudly expressed the hope that the Hebrews would take the initiative to go to the Middle East to contribute to their country, and he did not see many Hebrews. Someone responds.
Aren’t they clamoring for the founding of the country every day?
Why are we not willing to fight for our country when we already have a country?
To put it bluntly, I am still selfish. I want others to fight and I can enjoy the benefits.
It’s not unusual for one or two to think like this.
When a group of people thinks so, they deserve to wander for thousands of years.
"Since others who want to become Russian nationals must first join the Orthodox Church, Hebrews are no exception."
George did not open the back door. He began to want privileges even before he became Russian nationals.
If these weirdos come in, I don’t know how to act like a monster.
George No matter how old Karl fights against the Hebrew consortium, Russia has been overwhelmed with happy events recently.
Last month, a Russian TV station piloted the program, causing a sensation, and television began to become the new favorite of Russians.
In an era when radios were not even popular in the United States, Russia was at the forefront of technology. This made George feel Russia's technological capabilities firsthand.
Siberia Aviation Group has made further progress in the research and development of jet aircraft. Last year, it developed a turbine engine specifically for jet aircraft, which is also the first in the world.
Siemens' rockets can already hit 100 kilometers, showing advantages over artillery and rocket launchers in both range and power.
Although the accuracy of the rocket is still a big problem, at this distance, it can already be used to attack large targets such as cities. The Tula Arsenal developed a 125mm smoothbore gun that can be used on armored fighting vehicles, so the Siberian Automobile Group increased the tonnage of the armored fighting vehicles to 50 tons, far ahead of all similar equipment.
The generals were not satisfied with this and asked the Siberian Automobile Group to continue to improve technical indicators.
George felt that if he continued to study, it would not take long before those crazy engineers could stack the tonnage of the armored fighting vehicle to 100 tons.
This is really a battleship on land.
While Russia is focusing on developing new technologies, Americans are ramping up productivity.
American capitalists cannot be said to have no interest in new technologies at all. Rather than investing in the research and development of new technologies, American capitalists are more inclined to purchase them directly.
There is no other reason. Technology research and development is too expensive, and investment does not always yield results. If the direction is wrong, all the money invested will be in vain.
For example, airships.
In the past year, new domestic investment in the United States has exceeded US$15 billion. Almost all American consortiums are frantically building new factories, recruiting new workers, and expanding productivity. The economic situation is excellent.
Affected by investment, the U.S. stock market has soared, and stock trading has become a national topic. Many Americans have invested all their wealth in the stock market, and it is not enough. They are trying every means to get leverage, and they are in debt without knowing it.
Little John came to Joseph again, hoping that the two companies would join forces to continue to push the U.S. stock market to new heights.
"The current stock market is already very dangerous. If it reaches new highs, sooner or later all of our wealth will be swallowed up -"
Joseph doesn't quite understand the madness of the market. The economic crisis that occurs once every ten years basically means They were all detonated by the stock market, why not learn a lesson?
It’s not that we don’t accept lessons, but there are too many smart people who think they can escape from the top on the eve of the stock market crash, but they don’t know that there are people smarter than you.
No matter how smart you are, can you be smarter than thousands of actuaries?
Always believe in the power of the collective.
"Without these fools who come one after another, how can we make money easily?"
Little John smiled, this is finance.
How much money can you make from hard work digging for oil?
The economic crisis that occurs every ten years is itself a part of finance. Otherwise, in an era when the internal combustion engine had not yet appeared, why would Rockefeller become the richest man in the world?
It is impossible to rely only on oil lamps.
Rockefeller, who started his career in oil, and Dolgorukov, the automobile magnate, were a perfect match. This is why Little John and Joseph became friends.
“Okay, let’s have a big fight!”
Joseph could not refuse the olive branch offered by Little John.
If you want to become a part of the United States, you must lower your moral standards. Therefore, Yuriev, who takes the initiative to increase wages for workers, will never be able to integrate with the United States.
Compared with Joseph, little John, who was born in the United States, is a standard American.
Since even Little John doesn't care about the life and death of ordinary Americans, Joseph will not care about American interests.
George is also very concerned about the financial markets of the United States and the United Kingdom. A large part of Alpha's overseas funds comes from the stock markets of various countries.
Intelligence work is very dependent on funds. Alpha's way of doing intelligence is to throw money at it. If ten thousand dollars is not worth it, then twenty thousand dollars will be used. If it doesn't work, just change someone else and continue to throw money at it.
Alfa's trader in the United States, Louis, is a top math student who graduated from St. Petersburg University and is naturally sensitive to numbers.
Louis now controls more than 50 million US dollars. Although he is strong compared to retail investors, he is still not qualified to join the table.
Louis was smart enough to spread his funds across more than 100 accounts, keeping as low a profile as possible.
Even so, Lewis attracted the attention of the U.S. tax authorities.
In the United States, only death and taxes are inevitable. Even illegal transactions must be paid according to regulations. In the eyes of the U.S. tax department, Louis is an out-and-out big fish.
The 16th Amendment to the Constitution in 1913 provides that the federal government has the power to levy income taxes on institutions and individuals.
But at the same time, the U.S. Constitution also stipulates that as long as you do not take money out of the stock market, no matter how high the stock price rises, you do not need to pay taxes.
Louis made frequent transactions in order to avoid taxes. Although the U.S. tax department noticed Louis, they never caught him and had nothing to do with Louis.
In mid-April, Lewis again withdrew funds from the stock market through stock trading, and was finally approached by the tax department.
"I have the right not to answer any of your questions until my lawyer arrives."
Louis did not panic at all when faced with the loaded tax police.
The U.S. tax department has its own military and is not under the jurisdiction of the federal government.
As Alpha's operator, Louis is not without the ability to resist. Alpha has a permanent security team stationed at Louis' home to protect Louis' safety.
As for the lawyers, the funds at Louis' disposal allowed him to hire the most famous lawyers in the United States, form a team of lawyers, and litigate the case with the tax department.
In a country governed by law, as long as things are done within the rules, Louis is invincible.
It’s easy not to follow the rules.
No matter how capable the U.S. tax department’s troops are at fighting, they will never be more capable than the Cossacks.
