＜ German Settlement Bank Assembly. (1) >
Berlin.
DWM Headquarters.
“Then, Loewe-sama, I’ll leave.”
Kahlik W. Veyron.
A member of the hedge fund secretary’s office.
In charge of weapons-science and engineering departments of hedge funds.
Director of the New York Ordnance Department.
from the slum.
A graduate of the Wharton School.
He was currently negotiating with DWM Loewe Director on an agreement for technology sharing in Berlin, Germany.
“Vyron, are you leaving already?”
While Detroit Director Morgan was in full swing in the Far East, Veyron was running the New York Ordnance Bureau in Germany.
Veyron was in charge of the Newport News Shipyard and Federal Steel, as they were both science and engineering.
He was quite busy.
But not today.
“Yes, it seems that you have visited the German Empire, so I think I should go there too.”
“Detroit?”
Director Loewe was startled and immediately began to sweat in a cold sweat.
Loewe’s complexion gradually became paler, as if the person behind the scenes trembled at the sight of his name.
“Why are you doing this? Maybe there was a problem with the transaction…”
“No, no. You didn’t come to Berlin, did you?”
“Yeah, he said he’s in Frankfurt now, not Berlin. I’ve also booked a train ticket, so I’ll be there in two days.”
“Frankfurt…is it?”
after.
Director Loewe breathed a sigh of relief. But with a more complicated face, he sent Veyron out to the door of the representative room.
“Then tell the Detroit director a little about DWM investment.”
“Yeah, you’ll probably like it, because there’s no other gun company like DWM.”
“Then I’m glad. I’ll be sure to ask you a favor.”
“Yes.”
click.
The door is closed.
“Hmm.”
Awkward-
Veyron put the leather gloves back on his hands.
Because of the ugly scar, I didn’t like it very much, but sometimes the type of director Loewe didn’t like to negotiate with gloves on, so I had no choice but to do it.
“Is it an investment?”
It is said that a large-scale fire broke out in the DWM warehouse and factory in Baden-Württemberg recently. Anti-Semitic ideological extremists were said to have carried out terrorism.
He almost clinged to himself that Detroit was in desperate need of an investment.
“I told you that this time the burnt place was on the Karlsruhe side of Baden.”
DWM had main warehouses and factories in Berlin and Baden.

One of them burned down.
In an instant, half of the DWM company was oxidized to ashes.
“It’s the French border… Is it the influence of the Dreyfus Incident? Anti-Semitism is also a very scary idea.”
The wave of anti-Semitism was not serious.
When the Russian Empire’s pogroms (persecution of Jews) were combined, another wave of anti-Semitism was sweeping across Europe.
“That means the situation in Europe is unstable.”
This situation in which Europe is becoming more and more unstable like a gunpowder.
Veyron was a bit uneasy.
But he shook his head.
“Once I join the Detroit Director.”
He would know the answer.
tup-
Then someone grabbed him from behind. Veyron grabbed the dagger in his arms for a moment due to his slum habit, but the grip on his shoulder was too strong.
“Ugh!”
“Oh, sorry. I squeezed too hard. I apologize.”
I turned around and saw an old man who looked strong. His strong appearance was like a solid rock.
It’s strangely familiar, who is it?
“who are you?”
“…I didn’t even introduce myself like this. Look at my mind.”
He coughed heavily and fixed his tie. He rubbed his hands against his pants and held out a large hand to Veyron.
I feel like I’m begging you.
“John Browning. I’m helping DWM for a while now with gun development… I’m an American just like you.”
He shrugged.
“Nice to meet you.”
John Browning.
A gunsmith and a genius of the century.
why were you eating I immediately remembered who he was.
‘…You crazy.’
Why is this person here?
Maybe you have a present for the director.

Frankfurt.
“Will that work?”
Kylian put down her coffee mug.
He relaxed his listening posture and pulled his upper body to focus on me. Killian’s eyes were sparkling and shining.
“The Schaffhausenshire Association Bank is important. It serves as a liquidity supply to the heavy industry companies in Westphalia. They save their money.”
Heavy industry requires vast sources of funding. And Westphalia was the most active area for heavy industry, as the Ruhr Industrial Zone was located.
Ruhr industrial zone.
It is centered on Dortmund, Duisburg, Gelsenkirchen and Essen, and spans Leverkusen, Cologne and Bonn.
“Headquarters is in Cologne.”
Cologne was the largest city in Westphalia.
“But isn’t this bank a bit like that?”
Killian kept his expressionless expression while expressing his emotions through the content.
There was definitely something odd about it.
“Are you a little bit like that?”
“Do you know who is the biggest owner of the Schaffhausenshire Association Bank? If you say that it contains the essence of Westphalia’s Ruhr Industrial Zone, you can pretend.”
Essen.
Yes, the Schaffhausenshire Association Bank had a problem with this Essen. Essen was a city that Krupp took over.
“The Schaffhausenshire Association Bank is the bank that Krupp is swallowing up.”
“At the same time, it is also a bank that tightly controls the finance of the Ruhr Industrial Zone.”
“It is not.”
Westphalia was the most important industrial region in West Germany. It meant that the influence of the Ruhr Industrial Zone was that great.
“But it’s ‘physically’ simple to bring in Schaffhausenshire Association Bank.”
“…you’re welcome.”
“Yes, there are ways to try hostile M&A.”
The Schaffhausenshire Association Bank is currently listed on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange.
After nearly bankruptcy in the 1840s and 1850s, it continued to release shares to the Frankfurt Stock Exchange to provide liquidity.
“But this is a last resort.”
“…do you know that the Schaffhausenshire Association Bank is a bank with the influence of the Prussian government?”
“I know, but officially the Prussian government’s control is over, isn’t it?”
“But recently we’ve been entangled in Krupp mergers and acquisitions again.”
Kylian was obviously expressionless and had a flat accent, but the content was burning towards Prussia.
“……?”
I felt something uncomfortable.
It was as if Kylian’s need to keep Prussia in check was read–or wasn’t he trying to tank France right now?
Is there something different between Prussia and these guys?
‘…..what.’
I tilted my head obliquely.
“Do you hate the Prussian government?”
“…..?”
This time, he tilts his head from the other side.
He was looking at me as if he had never known before.
“Of course.”
“……”
I shook my head for a moment.
‘Actually, in the case of Württemberg and Hesse, I can only hate Prussia. Besides, Bayern, Westphalia and Rhineland-Palatinate are not so favorable.’
knew it
He was well aware of the fact that Prussia and anti-Prussia were divided even within the German Empire.
Because it was merged into a self-discipline.
Internally, I remember a lot of talk about disinfection day, Greater Germany, and the cultural struggle (Catholic conflict).
‘Then, is it true that Kylian’s opinion has no Prussian will? No, then why are you spreading this to me? Doesn’t that make sense?’
There can be no favor without cost.
All the transactions I have entered into are based on this absolute proposition as a basic premise.
‘After all, French tanking should be considered to be included in the intention.’
I have several reasons for judging this.
Moroccan crisis.
An irrational act committed by the current German Chancellor Büller after the Tripartite Negotiation was signed and Germany was isolated.
This is one of the reasons why Germany’s diplomatic skills are evaluated as disastrous.
‘At this time, a world war almost broke out.’
Morocco was an independent kingdom.
However, the French Third Republic tried to put a headlock on Spain and drop Morocco into its own protectorate.
Morocco hit SOS.
Germany came to the field to break through this isolated situation with ‘aggro’.
‘At this time, the French Grand Army pushed into the border of Alsace-Lorraine. Germany also called a reserve force.’
Even now, the aftereffects of the Civil War are strong. Relations between France and Germany were thus at their worst. They hated each other more than Cheol Cheon Ji-soo, and they really wanted to kill each other.
So West Germany is vulnerable.
That’s why I thought I might be tanking France with my shield.
From the point of view of the Prussian government and from the point of view of West Germany, France was a thorn in the eye.
‘Another Zionism.’
As the Dreyfus Incident rapidly spread anti-Semitism in France, the Jews were astonished and felt they needed self-defense.
Therefore, Zionism was flourishing in Jewish society today.
The Jews are afraid of France.
To exaggerate, to the Jews today, France was in the position of a weaker Nazi Germany.
Didn’t you see with your own eyes that one of Dreyfus’s life was ruined?
‘The German financial world is dominated by the Jewish people.’
So I thought he’d give me this for French tanking.
And I don’t think my assumptions are completely wrong.
“One thing… Let’s go ahead and check. Are you loyal to the German Empire?”
“of course.”
Just if there’s one thing I overlooked.
It was at the point that I was not aware at all how destructive the existence of ‘I’ was having a destructive influence on the international situation.
“I’m loyal.”
Also, what they say is that ‘Germany’ and ‘Prussia’ are completely different entities.
I didn’t know.
“Then I think it would be better to join the Schaffhausenshire Association Bank as well.”
“Hmm…”
Killian thought.
Is it right to join the Schaffhausenshire Association Bank to keep Prussia in check?
In the future, the Krupp board will become a field for the Junkers and, of course, will enter the Schaffhausenshire Association Bank.
for a moment.
Krupp will take over the Schaffhausenshire Association Bank…?
‘…..!!!’
Killian widened his eyes in disbelief.
Doesn’t this mean that the Ruhr industrial zone in Westphalia is completely handed over to Prussia?
this is not
it’s a big day
“…Chairman of Detroit.”
“Is it better to bring in the Schaffhausenshire Association Bank?”
A gentle flame began to burn in Kylian’s eyes.
“Yeah, I think we should collect as much stake in the Schaffhausenshire Association Bank as possible. At least to the extent that we can exercise our veto power.”
“Yes…..”
‘Did you suddenly regain your motivation?’
It’s also a French tank.
I laughed out loud thinking that it would be bad if I had too much doubt about myself, who was mistaken for a moment.
***
Just as a result of the question and answer, Kylian’s will began to burn.
he realized
The fact that they must intervene as much as possible to protect West Germany from Prussia.
‘It was stupid.’
Detroit Morgan, the shield of the Cham River, was afraid of being eaten by the Prussians.
Prussia has not yet fully digested the croup.
Chance.
Now was the time for the West German banks to assemble as closely as possible.
“Chairman of Detroit, isn’t the reason for bringing in Rheinbank to put Rheinland’s heavy industry in the arms of the German Settlement Bank?”
“That’s right. Besides, I’ve heard that Rhinebank is currently experiencing a liquidity crisis. If we, the German Investment Corporation, invest in the name of funding, it will be easy to get a stake.”
Heavy industry in Rhineland.
Thyssen Steel is a large company that symbolizes this. A supernova in the steel industry that achieved vertical integration with the steel industry in Rhineland.
So, one of the major shareholders of Rhine Bank is August Thyssen, the founder of Thyssen.
‘The problem is that the headquarters of this Line Bank is in Essen again.’
Essen is in trouble again.
For Kylian, Essen was no more and no less than the parasitic waters of the Prussian Junkers.
However, since it was the enemy’s main base, it was even more necessary to attract LINE Bank.
‘It’s good to take Detroit supremacy from Britain. It’s good, but if the Junkers intervene, it’s only a hindrance.’
The headquarters of muscle brains whose brains were pickled by the military.
The Prussian Senate is dominated by ignorant people trying to solve the problem by force. At first, Prussia was a demonic race that exploited West Germany.
So the East German Junkers cannot be trusted.
Transferring the hegemony of Detroit to Germany was an area that West Germany had to lead.
That’s how Germany is balanced.
Germany’s current situation in which Prussia is active will ultimately lead Germany to ruin in the future.
“How about diluting it?”
“Diluted?”
“Among all the banks I own, the Rhine Credit Bank is located in Baden. It is the largest bank in Baden. The banks are located in Rhineland and ‘Alsace’.”
Moment.
The word Alsace seemed to shake the Detroit chairman’s eyes. Rubbing his eyes slightly and looking back at Detroit, he saw his strangely confident face.
That’s ‘I was right, too!’ It was the expression of a human who thought.
‘…..what?’
Killian swallowed his doubts and continued.
“If you bring this Line Credit Bank to the Baden area, it will come under the influence of the German Settlement Bank.”
“Baden, Westphalia, Rhineland-Palatinate, Hesse, Württemberg and Alsace are coming.”
Rhine Credit Bank will halve the influence of Rhine Bank in Rhineland. Mix properly, gradually erasing the Prussian influence.
Raise the plate for the cause.
A flash of light lit up in Kylian’s eyes.
“With the exception of Saarland and Lorraine, virtually all of West Germany.”
“No.”
I stopped talking.
“no.”
***
I think differently than Kylian.
“Aren’t some of the economic spheres that make up West Germany missing?”
“…are you missing out?”
Let’s make more boards.
Let’s expand it hotly as soon as possible.
Let’s weave the whole of ‘Western Germany’ for once.
Let’s separate it from East Germany.
“Let’s put the North German Bank of Hamburg and the Industrial Bank of Darmstadt into it.”
“…..!!!”
Killian’s eyes widened.
‘haha.’
I was glad in my heart that I had seen Kylian’s agitation for almost the first time today.
Was that inspiration able to make a face like that?
‘It’s still too early to be surprised.’
I smiled inwardly with a sinister smile.
“Hamburg is a region that has devoured the economic sphere of North Germany since the days of the Hanseatic League. If West Germany has Frankfurt, North Germany has Hamburg.”
“Hamburg is in the west after all, so is it West Germany?”
“Although the Hanseatic League has long been a failure, Hamburg’s influence is still great.”
There was another reason to include the North German Bank.
“It’s not just a geographic issue, it’s an industrial structure issue.”
West Germany’s blind spot so far.
It is an inland region without sea. No matter how much Württemberg and all the West German states combined, they couldn’t go out to sea.
What do you do when you pull things out?
If you can’t get it out to sea, it’s a no-brainer.

Of course, Germany has excellent rail transport, but that doesn’t diminish the importance of maritime trade.
Killian brushed his beard.
“It makes sense.”
“In the same vein, we also need the Darmstadt Industrial Bank, because the Darmstadt Industrial Bank is effectively in charge of West Germany’s trade finance.”
“If we form an alliance with the North German Bank of Hamburg, maritime trade will be easier to penetrate.”
“That’s what I mean.”
West German economy.
The tighter this web of economics is, the tighter the West Germany becomes.
‘But how many are still missing?’
“The point of contact with Prussia is not only in Essence.”
“What do you mean?”
Killian’s eyes lit up.
“The German Rothschild that I will take over. I think you know enough about this.”
“You are the organizer of the Prussian government’s issuance of government bonds.”
Moment.
Maybe it’s because of the feeling.
Kylian’s eyes looked similar to those of a dog dog holding a leash.
“…Yes, since there is a German Rothschild, the issue of government bonds in Prussia will fall under the jurisdiction of the German Settlement Bank.”
“It’s the best.”
“Besides, the North German Bank I just mentioned is one of the behemoths of the Prussian consortium, along with the German Rothschilds and the DISCONTE-Geselshaft in Berlin.”
The Prussian Consortium is that.
The Prussian government bond issuance federation owned by the German Rothschilds. This creates another contact with the North German Bank.
what.
Isn’t this just one of the country’s economic spheres?
Excluding Saarland and Lorraine, we ended up splitting the German Empire’s economic sphere in half.
It was also in the state of taking only the net exhaust of heavy industry.
I felt creepy again.
The economic sphere of West Germany was uniting with the meeting of just three people in this room now.
Association Bank of Württemberg.
Central Bank of Württemberg.
Line Credit Bank.
Kylian Steiner, former president of the bank.
Dresdner Bank.
Bank President Yalmach Shacht.
German Investment Corporation.
German Rothschild.
I am Detroit Morgan.
“And the last one…”
I lifted my index finger.
“The Sovereign Wealth Fund of the United States. I’m going to bring this guy in.”
The ultimate king of French tanking.
I think the US government is enough.
Who would dare to touch the US government?
Even during World War I, he twisted his body like a twist in order to somehow avoid hostility with the United States.
‘uh? So, isn’t the United States also west from the German Empire?’
Thinking nonsense like that.
I began to draw the organizational chart of the German Settlement Bank on a blank notepad.
crunchy crunchy-
“……”
Kylian hardened like a stone statue.
Next to him, Yalmach opened his mouth wide.
“What?”
