While William IV and his family were discussing international topics at the Dutch Royal Palace in Melbourne, they were in Argentina, South America.

Miter's support for the British approach has been met with mixed praise at home.

In particular, no one knows that Argentina’s economy has developed rapidly in recent years. Apart from Argentina’s own hard work, no one denies that the Netherlands’ role is absolutely crucial.

According to a poll conducted by an Argentine newspaper, in a data conducted in Japan and across the country, the country that Argentines trust most is the Netherlands. The second is Chile. The third is the Commonwealth of America. The fourth is

Bolivia and the United Kingdom are ranked tenth among the countries Argentina trusts, ahead of Spain, which was once the colonial master of various countries in South America.

Such polls embarrass the Argentine government. However, they do not dare to take excessive actions with this newspaper, because the largest shareholder behind this newspaper is the Netherlands, and the second shareholder is the United States.

Facing them, no matter how strong Miter is, it will be difficult for him to withstand the pressure of these two powerful countries.

After all, they are the largest capital investors in Argentina’s agricultural production.

The reason why President Miter had no time to pay attention to this trend in Argentina was because he selectively forgot about it, which caused more Argentines to complain.

Especially as Argentina opens up its food support to the UK and supports the UK's food shortage, it has also depleted its domestic food supply.

Originally, Argentina's grain surplus was not much in recent years, only tens of thousands of tons. However, during the Chilean War some time ago, both the north and the south of Chile had tried their best to buy Argentina's grain. Although the price premium was nearly half, Argentina made a lot of money from selling grain.

However, due to the national storage of cereals, the food support proposed by the United Kingdom has become a problem for Argentina’s domestic food supply.

And considering that Argentina currently feeds more than 200,000 soldiers, it still needs to subsidize the army every day.

Therefore, Miter agreed to Britain's request for food supplies, but in the end he found himself and Argentina in trouble.

British capitalists had already swarmed in and were waiting there, so as soon as the Argentine government decree was issued, they immediately used pounds to buy food. However, in just one week, Mitre could no longer hold on.

As Britain's panic buying of food became more and more severe, food shortages in the country became more and more severe, and Argentina actually experienced a shortage of food supply.

Mitre, on the other hand, has always been generous to the families of soldiers, so he was able to quickly win over the military's loyalties in the past.

This year is no exception. Pensions, alimony, etc. are all paid in one step, and the amounts are large.

Mitre even learned about public support in the Netherlands. In order to win over the people of Argentina, he introduced a new law. Children of the war, as well as injured soldiers, were all supported by the state.

As for the first one-time payment, Miter paid 300,000 pounds in addition to 10,000 tons.

In other words, Miter cannot point out other grains now. At present, Miter still needs to wait until the grain harvest in autumn before new grains begin to appear.

Miter can only buy large amounts of private grain and then participate in domestic shortages. Argentina has only encountered a grain shortage in the past few years.

Naturally, the Argentinians were worried about this, and everyone began to compete with the Argentine government to buy more food and hide it at home. Coupled with the Dutch's large-scale purchase of food, the price of food in Argentina soared rapidly, reaching twice the usual level.

.This is the ending of less than a month.

The government does things and the people pay for it!

Mitre's approach made people who were doing farm work in the country very dissatisfied. After all, this has been the way of life for many years.

Food prices are getting higher and higher, which makes people in Argentina, the world's largest food exporter, more and more angry.

At this time, the spies trained by the intelligence-observation room established by William IV himself also appeared and played their role.

Argentina, Buenos Aires.

"Well, life is getting more and more difficult now. There have been no disasters in the past few years and food prices are so high." The small businessman sitting in a small restaurant took two sips of low-grade wine and sighed.

As soon as the businessman's words finished, they immediately resonated with other people in the small restaurant. A coolie working at the dock couldn't help but sigh: "Who is it? Last year, the price of food was suppressed, which was half of the current price.

It is almost double the premium in normal years. The weather has been good this year. Although I cannot say it was a bumper harvest, it is not a small bumper harvest, but it is still a normal harvest.

But I didn’t expect that food prices would be so expensive this year, almost twice as high. And the capital of Argentina has not seen any increase in prices. Life is very tight these days.”

To others, it sounds like spitting.

The businessman who had spoken just now threw his weight on Wang Xiao's table and cursed: "It's all the damned, um, person at the top who did it! If it hadn't been like this, life wouldn't have been so difficult this year. It's simply

It’s like suffering.”

The people nearby couldn't help but look at each other after hearing this, and some didn't understand what Xing Shang meant.

The man who just met the coolie at the dock was the first to ask, "Brother, what do you mean by this? What the hell did this guy do? Is it those grain merchants? I see that their hearts, livers, lungs, and kidneys are all black when they return home."

"It's like taking ink"

Hearing this, the merchant stopped talking. He sighed deeply, took a sip of wine, and said dissatisfied: "No more! No more! What kind of grain merchant? If it weren't for that person, our grain prices might be so high."

Woolen cloth"

Hearing this, everyone else was aroused by the merchant's curiosity. One customer urged: "Brother, what do you mean by this?"

"That's right, sir, please tell us your age," another guest urged.

A well-dressed customer shouted to the boss: "Store, give this gentleman a bottle of expensive wine from France, and the money will be in my hands."

Soon a bottle of French expensive wine arrived on the merchant's low table.

Upon seeing this, Xingshang immediately scratched his head in embarrassment, and then said: "This...how is this so embarrassing?"

The customer who was more well-dressed waved his hand boldly and said: "Sir, you are welcome, please tell us why the price of food here is so high in normal years."

Hearing this, Xingshang hesitated for a moment and said, "I also heard this from a customer in Neuquén City, Zapara Province. He doesn't know whether it's true or not. Just take it as a joke."

"Of course, of course," the other guests said when they saw the merchant, they immediately brightened up and agreed with appreciation.

The merchant took a sip of French expensive wine and then said: "You must also know about the British teaming up with Argentina to fight against the Netherlands."

"Of course! Of course!" The other guests saw what the little merchant wanted to say. They immediately cheered up and agreed in line with the little merchant's tone.

The young merchant drank a bowl of warm wine and then said: "You must also know that the United Kingdom joined forces with Argentina and Southern Chile to challenge the Netherlands and Northern Chile, right?"

"Of course, I heard that because of this, there was a turmoil in the Netherlands, and the major parties also released the policies of various Dutch parties towards Argentina."
