Vienna, Schönbrunn Palace.

Franz was telling Madame Sophie a bedtime story:

"Once upon a time there was a bear named Misha.

Misha has a friend named Ivan.

Misha and Ivan live happily in the big forest.

One day, Misha saw a fly land on Ivan's face. Misha wants to help a friend get the flies off his face.

So Misha lifted up a boulder and threw it at the flies.

Crack!

The fly died, but poor Ivan was also crushed to death by kind Misha.

This is a Russian fable, it tells us not to do bad things with good intentions, especially when we have great abilities..."

President Andrew Jackson was ignoring his own energies. He wanted nothing more than to kill Biddle and his Second Bank of the United States of America.

It's just that Andrew Jackson's bricks and mortar will not only destroy Biddle and his Second Bank of the United States of America, but also the entire American economy and his ambitious hegemony.

Biddle and his Second Bank of the United States of America are indeed a time bomb for the United States.

Those banknotes without precious metals and commodities as guarantees are white strips that may become waste paper at any time.

Andrew Jackson had three beliefs

First, the support of the people is the most reliable.

Second, the government should not be "hijacked" by financial and other institutions with inflated power.

3. Excessive liberalization of the financial industry to foreign forces is very dangerous.

It is undeniable that Andrew Jackson fought to the death with the banker Biddle for the sake of the United States, but he did destroy the American economy.

According to Andrew Jackson's original plan, he will take out all the reserves of the Federal Reserve in the Second Bank of the United States of America five times, and then throw Biddle and his bank into the dustbin of history.

However, he still underestimated his own power and overestimated the ability of the Second Bank of the United States of America to pay.

In fact, in theory, the Second Bank of the United States of America should be able to cash 2-3 times, which can delay the economic crisis a little.

However, due to Franz's push, the time bomb exploded.

But even without Franz making waves in the middle, once the U.S. government starts withdrawing coins from banks, it will still trigger a series of chain reactions.

All financial giants, business tycoons, and important government officials are not fools, and they will definitely go to the bank to withdraw money.

Historically, it took only one month for the Second Bank of the United States of America to lose its ability to pay, while the ability of other banks to pay and resist risks was even worse.

The banks in this era are all private banks. Once the bank fails, the depositors will lose their money, which undoubtedly exacerbated the tragedy of this financial tsunami.

But the Bank of New York escaped unharmed because of the suspicious lobby manager.

Because they always think that someone is watching their position, and they are not lending excessively crazy.

Of course, in the economic crisis, they also suffered huge losses, but compared with the huge benefits brought by their excellent reputation, these losses are not worth mentioning.

The real estate industry in the United States has suffered a severe winter, and the price of land in the United States has dropped by 30% in the first three weeks.

Speculators from all over the world and American banks jointly created the largest economic bubble in the first half of the nineteenth century.

This time, the economic bubble of American real estate made Franz earn 67 million florins.

Among them, the land with the highest yield is naturally in Chicago, which increased by 54 times when Franz sold it.

Of course, the real estate prices in Boston and Tennessee are also good, but the land in New York has only increased by 6 times, which really makes Franz feel a little bit chilled.

After all, in Franz's eyes, speculators all over the United States are on Wall Street, so how could it be possible for New York's land prices to lag behind others.

In fact, the vast majority of speculators have seen this bubble, but no one can stop its expansion in the face of huge interests.

Some are still trying to save America's real estate market, and some are unwilling to give up their land in the hope they can sell it when prices rise.

"Don't be afraid! This is just a technical adjustment..."

This is the most frequently heard line in the New York trading center these days, most of these people will end up in the mental hospital and continue to adjust technically.

Because this is just the beginning, after which the prices of these land assets will drop exponentially.

In the end those lands that were bought for $15,000 are waiting for buyers for $100.

Of course, the United States is not the biggest loser. Americans have at least paid off their debts.

And the United States will not allow itself to be the biggest loser, and soon Martin Van Buren became president instead of the disgraced Andrew Jackson. The first thing he did was to ask all banks to refuse to pay out metal coins.

Martin Van Buren only wanted to protect the interests of the United States. He didn't care about those speculators, let alone those foreigners.

This disastrous consequence has to be borne by those foreign investors.

This includes our beloved Mr. Friedrich List, whose assets in the United States at their peak were close to $1.8 million.

Yet in the first month of the recession, he lost nearly a third of his fortune.

What's even more frightening is that Mr. Friedrich List used to borrow a lot in order to earn more profits.

But now everyone knows that Mr. Friedrich List bought a large amount of non-performing assets in the United States, so they have been demanding debts from him.

He had to sell his property in the United States, but no one was willing to pay for it, so he had to borrow usury from the Rothschild family.

And one day in the future, Mr. Friedrich List will also pay the price he deserves for his actions today.

The real estate industry in the United States was just the beginning. Due to the decline in cotton prices and the decline in the credibility of the US dollar, the British further lowered the purchase price, which made countless farmers lose their money.

The Battle of Texas and the failure of the US military also made the entire United States turbulent.

Through the Battle of Austin, the U.S. military realized the huge gap between itself and the top European army.

The pistol cavalry they are proud of, and the French cavalry with various debuffs such as acclimatization, isolation, etc., UU reading www.uukanshu. com was defeated in World War I.

The French army was also able to pursue the remnants of the American army with impunity because of the victory of the cavalry on the flank.

Before the U.S. military fought against the French army, it never thought that rifled guns would lose to smooth-bore guns.

There are many reasons why the American army failed, such as losing too many troops in the siege battle, the French army had better performance, more artillery, and stricter discipline and more capable commanders.

However, fighting the French army still brought great shock to the U.S. military, especially when the U.S. military had a numerical advantage, the French army still chose to take the initiative to attack and completely defeated the U.S. military.

Whether it was the use of artillery by the French army or the combination of scattered and column tactics, the US army felt desperate.

The French army used cannons to open the way, and the stragglers took advantage of the smoke to continue to attack and kill the US stragglers. When the smoke cleared, the devastating volley of the French army also made the US desperate. nightmare.

The U.S. military strongly recommends increasing military spending, sending military observers to Europe, updating equipment, and redeeming prisoners.

However, President Martin Van Buren's reply was only two words "no money".

The Bank of England still had 9 million pounds of gold reserves in May 1836, but in the following days, it was reduced at a rate of 700,000 pounds a month.

Palmer, the governor of the Bank of England, has repeatedly warned the British government that we have too many dollar notes and we must do something to curb its growth.

However, no one in the British government, immersed in the huge benefits brought by the textile industry, wanted to reduce trade with the Americans.

The surge in payment volume in December forced this long-established bank out of business.

It also means the outbreak of the British economic crisis.
