It is also very expensive to go out to socialize. The Austrian aristocracy lives very well, and Franz has not yet achieved property freedom.
Now, Franz's income is very limited, mainly from the parents to give money, accurately from the mother's pocket money.
Because of the father's disregard of factors, the financial power of the family fell into the hands of Mrs. Sophie, and Franz had not yet obtained the property under her name.
Of course, it is easy to get money in his own capacity, but Franz is cherishing the feathers, and it is definitely impossible to take advantage of it.
The current European environment is not suitable for investment in the industry. In more than a year, the February Revolution in France will break out and spread rapidly throughout the European continent. All countries except Russia will be plagued by revolution.
In history, Vienna has fallen into the hands of the rebels. If the luck is not good, the rebels will burn the factory. Where did he cry? There is no insurance company in this era.
There are many businesses with huge profits, such as arms, drugs, counterfeit banknotes, and lottery tickets. Franz thinks that it is more suitable for him to mine and salvage the shipwreck treasure.
After counting it, Franz had to give up these tempting money-making schemes for the simple reason that he was the heir to the Austrian Empire, not a common capitalist.
Conservatives don't want to see a capitalist emperor, the Vienna Revolution is about to break out, and Franz can't do without the support of conservatives.
"Frantz, are you learning again? Young people should be active, you are too dull, why not go hunting with me?"
It is his father, Grandpa Franzcar, who is extremely unstable. Men, the biggest hobby seems to be hunting, the second big hobby is to take a few sons to rob.
As a member of the Regency Council, Grand Duke Franzkar is one of the least influential. Because of the inherent defects, his intelligence is very low, and it is too difficult to participate in politics.
If it were not because of his high status, the Austrian Regency Council would not let him enter.
"Father, you still go by yourself, I have to visit Louis Dagong today, I don't have time to hunt!" Franz quickly refused to say that
this is a sequela of too young, although Franz is very mature, in many people. In the eyes, he is still only a child.
When Franzcar was normal, he was still a good father. He was still very concerned about him, but this concern Franz could not stand it.
...
"Mother, you know, recently I overhead some big ..."
wait Franz finish, Mrs. Sophie opened his mouth and said: "? So you want to get back the property under their own name, for it"
as How can a big Austrian official have no industry?
Because the father and the uncle have some arrears in their minds, as the eldest son of the third generation of the royal family, after determining that the brain is normal, his grandfather is very happy to seal him as a grandfather.
However, the title of the Grand Duke of Franz is still somewhat imaginary. The land is not in the control of Austria, so the income of the land is not expected.
There are still many such short-selling Habsburg families. For example, the King of Jerusalem, if one day Austria can recover Jerusalem, then it is true.
There is a good grandfather is not the same, although the title is only honorary, but as the most favored grandson, he still inherits a large number of legacy.
According to Franz, there are five manors, two mines, several small workshops, and tens of thousands of Rhine Shield's cash.
(A Rhein Shield gold coin weighs 8 grams, and the gold content depends on the coin-maker's festival. There is no uniform standard.)
In this era, it is also a huge sum. To support Franz's personal expenses, there is no problem at all.
"Yes, mother! You know that I have grown up and are free to control my property!" Franz simply replied that
European cultural traditions are different from those in the East. Parents' property and children's property are clearly divided.
In the Eastern society, if you dare to mention this, keep a bamboo shoots fried meat, but in the West, Franz's request is completely normal.
Parents, as guardians, cannot continue to control their property after their children have grown up, including the benefits and expenses of these estates. Franz can check the accounts.
"Well, this is your right! But considering your age, I will not give up my mother's supervision in the next year, and your big expenses must be reported to me!" Mrs. Sophie thought about it.
"No problem!" Franz said without hesitation.
These are all minor problems. As long as they can get back the property management rights in their hands, they will report them and report them. Anyway, their money can be spent casually.
"Well, then Franz took your financial staff to settle with me, after deducting your expenses for the past few years, and my management fees for your industry, I will hand over the rest of the property to you!" Mrs. Philip said calmly that the
mother and the child should also settle accounts, so as to avoid the relationship between the two sides because of the relationship between money and money. In this regard, Mrs. Sophie is prepared.
"Mother, I don't want to settle, I believe that you are a man!" Franz said that
for Francis, money is a small problem, as long as it is enough to spend now, he has a way to get enough in the future. There is absolutely no need to entangle these money.
Of course, this is only for the mother. With his understanding of Mrs. Sophie, Franz does not think she will hang her son's money.
"Franz, this is your right. If you give up, don't regret it in the future, I will only settle with you once!" Mrs. Sophie said seriously.
"Of course, mother, I know what I am doing!" Franz answered without hesitation
...
At the end of 1846, Franz successfully completed the transfer of property. Several workshops of that year no longer existed. The industrial era came, and workshop-style production had long fallen behind the times.
However, the manor and the mine are still there, and the current benefits are not bad. Each year, about 10,000 Rhine Shields can be created.
The income is high and the expenses are large. Franz looks at the books, and his expenses are higher than expected. Others do not say that a dozen private teachers are not a small expense.
There are also servants, maids, guards, tailors, coachmen...
All these expenses are the problems that Franz himself bears, and the obligation to support them. If you forget or not, you don't need to be old.
In short, he has not saved much money over the years, and all the cash adds up to more than 60,000 Rhine Shield, which also includes cash in the estate.
Sure enough, the aristocratic style, so much cash has survived, and actually did not invest money to make money, Franz is too lazy to vomit.
This is the status quo of the Austrian aristocracy. They have not completed the transition from the great aristocracy to the big bourgeoisie. Everyone tends to be conservative in investment.
