《Reborn as a small European country》Chapter 7: War Payments
Advertisement
In early June 1980, the weather had begun to heat up, but for Jemez in the United States, the heat did not affect his mood.
The European Recovery Plan had been passed by the U.S. Congress, and sixteen countries were among them.
When the U.S. President put the Duchy of Nod into the proposal, the legislators were in an uproar, but when data was in front of them, the legislators no longer speak, each plotting their little thoughts.
The initial awareness proposal of the Duchy of Naud received aid funds of $ 80 million, but in the following period, $ 80 million gradually increased to $ 250 million, and Jemez is at this time received the news of the President's appointment.
Jemez and the President of the United States also did not have too much dialogue ≦ ★, both sides expressed their feelings about the United States, followed by some of the trivialities of life, until the end of the Nordic also in the United States to aid the news told him.
For this sudden pie, Jemez did not react, after all, he never felt that the U.S. Congress will pass Nord as a member of the aid, but the result is just the opposite, the final result is that eighty percent of Members chose to support.
While Jaymes was puzzled, the U.S. president was having a conversation with his assistant, and the conversation was about why Congress would approve Nord as part of the $250 million aid.
"Is it confirmed?"
"Secretary Smith is still investigating, satellite photography is blurred, but it is certain that the Duchy of Nod has a high degree of intelligent machinery, a month to build a new city district, the speed is indeed some ......"
"Just be sure, otherwise how can we explain the $250 million to the American citizens."
The last sentence of the president said very seriously, but the assistant's expression on the side already said everything, of course, 250 million dollars is not a small amount, there should be an explanation.
The President of the United States in conversation with his assistant, the House of Representatives passed the European recovery plan has also been informed by the outside media, that Jemez living in a five-star hotel instantly became the main media gathering place, there is no way, who let most of them have not heard of the Duchy of the Nordic countries before it.

"May I ask Foreign Minister Jemez, why the Duchy of Noord is at the top of the European recovery aid, as far as we know, this time the Kingdom of Spain did not get ......"
"Foreign Minister Jemez, there is news that the new Grand Duke of Nod is a child under 10 years old, is this news true?"
"Foreign Minister Jemez, most of the members of your cabinet government are French officials, does this mean that in the future the Grand Duke of Nod will become a member of France?"
"Foreign Minister Jemez ......"
When he first arrived in the United States, Jaymes was eager about this situation, but when the media came, he was a little tired of it, mainly because there were many questions that he was not clear about, such as why the Duchy of Noord in the European recovery plan, and also occupies a considerable proportion of the weight.
He selectively answered some of them and claimed that although the Duchy of Nod was a dual monarchy, the officials were not called foreign ministers but ministers, and the ministries were not ministers but ministers.
While Minister Jemez fled the United States in a state of panic, Joseph was working on his next plan, and Jemez's son, a young man in his twenties who had just graduated from the Polytechnic University of Paris, had gone to France to contact the Chinese Embassy in France and meet the ambassador there.
News from the United States had reached this side of the Atlantic by telephone, and when the citizens of Noord received the news they ran through the streets in excitement, shouting Ragnar III's name.
The New York Times, the London Daily News, the Paris Times, the Washington Journal, these well-known national media also rushed to the Nordic, the purpose of two, the first is to see what kind of country is the Nordic, why in the aid of the first, the second is to see the young eight-year-old Joseph.
These things Joseph also received the news, so a five-star hotel in the North City district along the coast to build up, which spent funds naturally from the few remaining treasuries of the Duchy of Nod.
Crixus had his eye on these sudden buildings, so when Joseph used the treasury funds and arranged for the land to be cleared, his spies were already there day and night. Unfortunately, the result was very unsatisfactory to Crixus, the construction of layers of steel plates to block the eyes of the eyes, trying to approach but was blocked by the Praetorian Guard, even Crixus himself did not let go.

At this time, the Nordic Praetorian Guard has more than eighty people, in loyalty, these new members are not worse than those old members, the only thing missing is perhaps the high intensity of training.
A small barracks was built not far from the Nordic palace, and day and night brainwashing made these already loyal young Nordic men so devoted to Joseph that they would not hesitate even if Joseph told them to die.
The effect of these effects on the body of the Praetorian Guard, even if they are still using the guns of defeated Germany, but the real strength has been no worse than the U.S. Navy Seals, coast guard elite. It is because of the existence of these people, that Joseph in the Duchy of Noord more and more arbitrary.
The barrel of a gun is out of power, as long as the Praetorian Army is in Joseph's hands, then Kress no matter how much power is in his hands can not overthrow Joseph's rule.
The continued appointment of Crixus is still because of his relationship with France, France is a great power, I believe that through the approval of the United States against the Nordic thing will also end, Crixus sooner or later to leave, Joseph now to do is to borrow the identity of Crixus, as much as possible from the benefits of France.
The United States was able to discover the changes in the Duchy of Nod, as a neighboring country of France naturally also have no reason to ignore, especially here there is Cress, so a large number of French intelligence elite came to Nod, to cover, a carload of supplies was also sent to Nod by the French government, the reason is the Duchy of Nod deserved the spoils of war.
Of course, this is not a reason, but the fact that, as one of the victorious countries, although the Duchy of Germany in World War II only 3,000 soldiers involved in the battle, and the fall within a day, this does not deny the position of the Duchy of Germany.
Three years ago Germany was defeated, according to the rules of the time the Duchy of Noord should have received more than 200 million marks of compensation, but these reparations have been withheld by the French government, even now, only a tenth of the sent.
The royal palace of the Duchy of Noord.
"Your Highness, you wanted to see me?"
"Two things, the first is the arrival of the media from various countries, this matter must be taken seriously, as much as possible to let them see our poverty, and strive for more aid for us, and the second is to arrange for someone to go to France, about the issue of compensation that belongs to us."
The person who came was the deputy minister of foreign affairs of the Nordic countries the entire foreign ministry is now only five people, Jemez went to the United States to take away an assistant, now the only remaining deputy minister, and two assistants, so the deputy minister said to Joseph's instructions are difficult.
"Compensation, the French government has already ......"
"I mean the rest, the German economy is in a depression, the U.S. aid in Germany is also in it, I need you to do is to use the rest of the compensation to get the German Auto Union shares."
"The German Auto Union?"
Joseph's words puzzled Mr. Deputy Minister, not so much about the relationship between France holding their reparations and Germany, but about why Joseph wanted a car alliance.
Joseph did not explain but waved his hand to let him go, things have been ordered down, and the next how to do that is a matter for the Foreign Ministry, he wants to see only the final result.
Accompanied by the confused back of the deputy foreign minister, Joseph's mouth murmured: "Audi, industrial, Novartis joint venture ......"

The White Rabbit: Book 2
In the Urillian Empire, the Empress Xandra rules three-quarters of the planet Xren from her home in the capital of the Earth Continent. Both the fire and water peoples have fallen under her might after a series of wars stretching back three centuries. Earth elves, under Xandra's rule, have spread throughout the planet and established colonies, and are, by all accounts, enjoying what seems to be a prosperous and happy existence. But not everyone in Uril is happy. The holy books speak of elves as the Chosen People of Thesis, tasked with guiding and protecting the lower races. For some people, this scripture has been interpreted to designate their life as one on the lowest rungs of society. Humans have been reduced to a slave class, and serve their elven masters under Xandra's rule, kept at bay by the constant fear of the dreaded Emerald Knight, and their own perceived weakness. Humans do not lead long lives, nor do they possess the wisdom, power, or magical acumen of their elven masters. But there is hope. A group of people have banded together to fight against Xandra, her Knight, and her empire. They call themselves the "Knights of Order" united under the principle idea that Xandra's reign has brought chaos unto Xren, and they wish to restore order. These Knights are led by a man named Xaxac Brigaddon, spoken of as a legend. They say that when the moons are full, some humans transform into powerful beasts. They say that Xaxac is the most powerful warrior on Xren, that in his youth he was enslaved and forced to fight other humans to the death in a bloodsport called "cage fighting", that he could not be touched and held the world championship title for three years running until he faked his own death and escaped his master to join the resistance. They say that he has friends in high places- noblemen, pirates, and the devil himself. They say that if you can find him, he can ferry you to freedom in places where the Earth Elves fear to tread. They say that he is immune to magical attack, and his eyes shine like the silver moon. They say that he is descended from Quizlivian Brigaddon, one of the humans who helped the demon Magnus escape a god. They say that if you want to walk the Path of Order, you should follow the White Rabbit.Come and watch the transformation from human boy to Knight of Order: The life and times of Xaxac OfAgalon OfLangil Brigaddon. Content Warning: This work is based on the real experiences of human trafficing survivors. Xaxac's origins are based on true events, and they are presented realisitcally; this includes but is not limited to: isolation, gaslighting, emotional and sexual abuse, and grooming tactics. This work is meant to hold a mirror up to society; it is based on the real of experiences of people who have experienced slavery and/or abuse. It is an adult work and probably should not be read by anyone under the age of 18. If you are a survivor of human trafficing and/or abuse, your feedback is welcome, but please do not read this if you think it may trigger your trauma. I did not write this with the intention of harming anyone, but rather to provide accurate representation for a group that does not normally get it in the hopes of changing the zeitgeist. I would like to see a world where more people understand what these experiences are like, so that real survivors do not have to deal with microagressions from an ignorant public. Reader discretion is advised. This book does not display these elements as heavily as book 1.
