William I had not been in such a good mood for a long time. In just a few days, half of the one million Prussian talers had been purchased, and the remaining half was just around the corner. What's more important is that these loans have no interest and are completely friendly support.
Good thing he had never heard of it.
Anyway, William I's impression of Li Xiao was not generally good. He felt that this young junior was so open and open that no one could fault him at all, which was really comfortable.
William I had absolutely no intention of borrowing money from Benjamin or other bankers. To him, those vampires were too evil. To borrow a million talers and have to pay back at least 1.2 million in the end was like sucking out the marrow.
Before, he was still worried about how to use the extra 200,000 to demolish the east wall to make up for the west wall. After all, his income was only so much. Although his elder brother Frederick William IV agreed to support part of it, he, the king, also deserved it.
I feel aggrieved and don’t have much money, so I can support him with about 100,000 yuan. It’s really hard to plug such a big hole!
But now, if he borrows one million, he still needs to pay back one million. There is no additional burden at all, so he does not need to worry about this year's family expenses. Otherwise, he would have to be shy and ask relatives to borrow money to live on.
With a whole body of joy, William I returned home. Although he was in a good mood today, he was still busy enough. He had been busy contacting people all day long and giving bribes and money. For the first time, he discovered that this job was also terrible.
But what was even worse was yet to come! Because as soon as he entered the house with his front foot, Augusta came to look for him.
"I heard that you are borrowing money heavily?"
Not only did Augusta have a gloomy face, but her tone was also unkind. She seemed to be looking for trouble. At least William I didn't like his wife's tone. He looked at Augusta and frowned, but what?
Didn't say anything.
Because William I wanted to discuss this issue with his wife at all, he felt that this was his mission and responsibility as the head of the family and the future head of the Hohenzollern family. It had nothing to do with Augusta, so it was neither necessary nor necessary.
Tell her she won't accept being questioned either.
After a long while, William I calmly replied: "This has nothing to do with you!"
But he did not expect that these words directly angered Augusta. The already very strong prince and wife flew into a rage and said: "How can it have nothing to do with me! My husband is going to borrow loan sharks, but I still have to pay back the loan."
You’re in the dark! You’ve squandered everything in this house and you still don’t tell me a word!”
William I was so irritable! He didn’t tell Augusta about this, not only because of the pride of the head of his family, but more importantly because he knew that Augusta didn’t want to fall out with Austria now, or secretly.
There will definitely be strong opposition to any discussion with her about making Austria famous.
Not only was there strong opposition, William I also knew a thing or two about Augusta's ability to act behind the scenes. She would definitely try her best to mess with this matter, and she would never give up until it got mixed up. Naturally, William I was even more interested.
It's impossible to be stupid.
But what makes William I very passive now is that Augusta actually knows about this. Which talkative bastard leaked the news to her?
At this moment, the anger in William I's heart also surged up. He swore that if he knew who was causing trouble, he would definitely regret that he had such a long tongue.
"I didn't borrow any usury!"
William I was in a very bad mood, but at the same time he was even more grateful for Li Xiao's "generousness". If it hadn't been for this kid's help in times of need, he might have really borrowed a loan shark by now. This was not considered by Augusta National
Flogging on the chopping board!
"I don't know what you are talking about either!"
Augusta was really angry because she knew von Norman's personality too well. It is true that this bastard was very unscrupulous, but there were not many people in Berlin who were better informed than him. Now that he has come to visit, then
It's definitely not groundless, it definitely happens.
And now, as her husband, William I still lied to her when she questioned her. This did not respect her rights as a wife at all! Augusta was really angry and disappointed. There were tears in her eyes,
Is there a lump in the throat?
"You... how long are you going to deceive me! Von Norman has come to the door. Although he is very dirty, he is well-informed... Now even a scum can know the news, and as a person, I
Your wife has no idea! Do you still think of me as your pillow? Do you still have this family in your heart? "
[Fon Norman, I’m going to fuck you!]
At this moment, William I really wanted to cut von Norman into eight pieces. He never expected that such a nobleman's shame would ruin his affairs. He once again felt that his father had married Augusta von Ha.
Countess Lach was the biggest mistake. If there hadn't been such a thing, why would she have let a scumbag like von Norman lead the wolf into the house?
William I decided to give von Norman some trouble. In the past, this guy had interfered in many things because of his cousin. At that time, he could just turn a blind eye and tolerate it, but today
He couldn't bear it anymore. Because this bastard's trouble actually happened to him. Was he trying to slap his nose on his face?
Of course, that was what happened later, and now William I had to solve the problem of the fire in his backyard first. He patiently replied again: "You misunderstood! I repeat, I did not borrow any usury, this is falsehood and speculation.
It’s something! Von Norman has always been unreliable, don’t listen to his nonsense!”
Augusta felt more and more sad, because what she really cared about was not the problems caused by von Norman, but their family. He felt that after hearing what she just said, William I's first priority should be to express his love.
Express respect for the family, rather than palely justifying yourself about loan sharking.
Is the most critical issue now the issue of loan sharking? It’s entirely their family’s problem, okay! And William I didn’t care about this family and only wanted to defend himself. This means that he doesn’t love her or this family at all.
OK!
I have to say that women’s brain circuits are so strange. Anyway, a straight man like William I has no way of grasping their thoughts. I am obviously just discussing the matter, and I am also explaining the truth to you, but you
It suddenly turned to the question of whether to love or not, Nima, this is all nonsense!
Anyway, one head of William I was bigger than two for a while...
