Chapter 200 Unstoppable Sino-French Alliance(2/2)

In order to strive for larger credit support and more reliable military guarantees, China, France and Russia will not only sign the "Treaty on Mutual Assistance between China, France and Russia", but China and France are also working on a closer military alliance

The relationship was in secret negotiations, and China took a fancy to the francs, while France also took a fancy to the Northeast Army.

Germany's final mediation and efforts failed to prevent the Emperor from signing the "Treaty of Mutual Aid for China, France and Russia". After this treaty came into effect, China also signed the "Treaty of Strategic Reciprocity and Trade" with France and Russia respectively.

Russia obtained a total of approximately 285 million pounds of government bond loans in installments in five years, equivalent to China's total central fiscal revenue in four years.

This attracts foreign capital inflows and restricts foreign capital outflows.

In addition, the overflow rights are limited to large franchised banks holding national-level bank operating licenses. In terms of license authorization standards, foreign banks have higher requirements, and relatively low requirements for joint venture banks and domestic banks.

If this strange financial policy was released during the Qing Dynasty, it would definitely lead to a very strange diplomatic hegemony incident. Foreign countries would force negotiations through portal policies. If negotiations fail, it is a threat of force. In fact, the tax rate can be increased, for 20
