Bandung, the palace of the sultanate.
Ahmad awoke from his sleep after travelling away from the ottoman and travelled to London to meet king george 3 in offering the same ship that the ottoman sultanate had, he said, but of course with the size and caliber of the cannon smaller than the ottoman.
"Ughh, it's fresh to wake up in bed. Shit I almost forgot about the rothschild family!"
"I almost forgot if the napoleon war was funded by 1 side of the same.The rothschild family, well I had to reduce their influence in Europe or the napoleon war would break out"
Ahmad immediately went and went to his office, there he immediately searched for documents about the movement of the rothschild family in Asia who fortunately met.
"So so yes, the rothschilds are planning to withdraw all investments in the Qing dynasty that will make their economy fall"
"I have to prevent this from happening, it's good that they want to attract investment from my Sultanate's trading partners. Well, you guys, the rothschild family, I'm gonna go play this game"
Ahmad immediately checked the state treasury and reached a total of 759,670 tons of gold bullion excluding property and building assets.
"It's good now to wait for them to attract investment and I'll go in and take over the huge Chinese market"
Ahmad went straight to the office of the economic and trade coach, where he was seen chatting with someone.
"Hmm? Ahh sire?!, how can I help you"
"Yes coach me, and this is a pretty serious matter. Even though we don't have to hurry, oh yeah who is he?"
"Ohh, he's introducing this son of Amschel von Rothschild, nathan von Rothschild"
'What?! Why is the founder of the British branch of the Rothschild bank here! Damn it must have changed history a lot'
"It's an honor to meet you Sultan, my name is nathan von Rothschild"
'She is also young! Surely his age is not much different from mine.wait is not with this I can settle affairs with the Rothschild family faster'
"Ohh so you're the one King George talked about when I went to the post-war Britain to make the relationship between the two countries better?"
"I am honoured by the Sultan, and I am sorry if I interrupted his important time. I'll go first"
"Not staying in your chair, I want to hear there's a need for what the Rothschilds from Europe came all the way here"
"Then I will explain it to you"
"Please, patihku"
"Baginda, lord nathan von Rothschild came here to borrow 500 tons of gold bullion to cover the debts of their branch families in the Holy Roman Empire and save their business in China"
A servant came to bring a chair and Ahmad sat in the chair firmly.
"Loans yes, but before that.why does the Rothschild family want to withdraw all its investments insulted? Wouldn't you like to save your business by adding capital and strengthening market and consumer coverage?"
As soon as Nathan von Rothschild broke out in a cold sweat, the Rothschilds' plan to change the Chinese government system was "sniffed" by the leader of their target country's partners.
"What does he mean? We never planned..."
"Don't lie to me, with my power and influence and my trading companies, destroying the Rothschild family's 3-story building is not a problem"
'N-no way! Even the Sultan of Sunda knew about the "3-story building" of the Rothschilds?!' nathan cried in his heart.
"Listen to Nathan von Rothschild, it is true that all Rothschilds are intelligent but intelligence without logic and conscience will only make the Rothschilds' good name destroyed. When it comes to funds I don't care much but if the Rothschilds want to destroy the economy of our partner countries, I can guarantee that the war between the "eastern and Western worlds" will not be inevitable"
"Indeed if by calculating the number of naval fleets, our strength is inferior to the combination of all European countries, but different stories if we have mastered 40% european economy through the export of electronic goods that can not even be made by European scientists"
"Easy example.cooling and heating powered by electricity, solar energy conversion tool into electricity, large powered machinery used for agriculture, etc, imagine if we stopped selling all that and the spare parts? How long can Europe survive before the crisis?"
Nathan was immediately lowered with a complicated expression, at first he thought the Sultan of Sunda would be easily toyed with considering the Qing dynasty was also once made into a trap.
Ahmad, who was fed up enough, gave a note to Nathan and left the two of them.
Nathan opened the note and read it for a while.
After reading the note, Nathan immediately resigned and returned to the hotel where he was staying.
Meanwhile, Ahmad was in a shooting practice area in the palace area.
There he trained with all his bodyguards ranging from sniper training to firing squads.
As usual ahmad gave instructions and tips in training, soon after the trading coach also met ahmad.
"Goddessa..."
"Ohh, what's wrong? Is nathan von Rothschild home yet?"
"Surely, Sire, but did my servant ask?"
"Hmm please"
"Okay, sire, what did you really give Mr. Nathan? After he read the paper he immediately said goodbye and when I turned around I briefly saw his panicked face"
"Ohh that, I only told him 3 possibilities that could happen if they dared to mess around"
"So, well, excuse me to your Majesty"
Ahmad nodded and continued the training session with his bodyguards.
29-07-1796
One week later, Ahmad is now on board his state ship which is escorted by dozens of supply ships and flagship warships of the Sunda sultanate.
Tak himself ahmad traveled to the city of mecca which became a special autonomous region of the ottoman Sultanate with the Sultan of Aceh, sultan of siak, sultan of palembang and also the sultan of Banjar.
This time travel is not only to visit the holy city of Muslims but also to meet the king of the hejaz kingdom who is in the shade of the Ottoman Empire as a subordinate kingdom. Even so, politics in the hejaz kingdom was still free from Ottoman influence.
The goal of this time ahmad was to make the empire of the hejaz and the Ottomans tighter because post-war Napoleon became tenuous due to British spies working with liberal factions that made some politicians and nobles do resistance to eliminate the influence of the Ottoman Empire.
The Sultanate of Aceh is currently led by Sultan Alauddin Jauharul Alam Syah who ruled since 1795 and became the first sultan in addition to the Sultanate of Johor who asked to join the Sultanate of Sunda with the Federation system where the Sultanate of Sunda the right to regulate the foreign economy and politics of the Aceh Sultanate.
In exchange for trade, rights, and status of Aceh are safe from the threat of Western countries that several times make movements that can trigger Aceh instability.
After the Sultanate of Aceh joined under the Sultanate of Aceh another Sultanate in the archipelago began to join and now in international view the Sunda Sultanate has controlled from the Sultanate of Aceh to the Sultanate of Bima in the Timor archipelago.
Thanks to the cohesiveness of the sultans who joined under the Sunda Sultanate, trade between the "western world" and the "eastern world" became stable.
Little explained, for the Sultanate who wants to join the Sunda Sultanate can choose the first 2 ways to give up 20% of its territory and get the status of governor General and the remaining territory is used as a special autonomy province with 20% his annual income was given to the sundanese sultanate as tax, both ceded half of his territory to the Sundanese sultanate and got the title of governor-general and ruled the rest of his territory with 0% tax.
When ahmad was enjoying the twilight sky, the sultan Alauddin Jauharul Alam Syah or known as the governor General Alauddin Jauharul who ruled the autonomous province of Aceh darussallam came to see him.
"May I sit next to you?"
"Of course, Governor General Alauddin, please also enjoy a companion meal here"
"Thank you, Sire"
Governor General Alauddin was sitting in the seat next to Ahmad and tasted basreng and batagor, it is seen that the governor General Alauddin quite liked the existing basreng and batagor.
"May I ask?"
"Please brother Alauddin, we are both sultans despite the status of brother Alauddin is now governor-general"
"Well if that's what the ahmad brothers want, ahmad brothers. Is it okay if we go to Mecca with my brother? Doesn't the brother of Ahmad have work to do in the kingdom of hejaz?"
"It is true that I have a job to do in the kingdom of hejaz, but not in this way you can go to Mecca without money. It can also save money and I don't mind it brother Alauddin. Also after mecca I will pay a visit to Damascus so the fleet of ships here will stay long enough in the hejaz"
"That's it, I understand brother ahmad. Excuse me because I'm not used to the sea breeze"
"Please brother Alauddin, I hope the other brother does not get sick because of this long journey"
"Thank you for your attention, brother Ahmad, but I think it's quite difficult"
Governor General Alauddin entered the cabin and headed to his room.
Ahmad was still looking at the vast ocean because he remembered the moment when the little ahmad went sailing with his grandfather who was gone.
"Grandfather, the sea is similar. Similar to the one I saw when I last saw grandpa..."
Ahmad went into the cabin after the air was cold enough and made some of the crew who were on guard immediately wearing thick coats.
02-08-1796
A few days later, the fleet finally arrived in the Red Sea after passing through the Gulf of Aden, where the fleet met with the Ottoman warship on patrol.
The two fleets saluted each other militarily and both shouted takbir through speakers 3 times.
Ahmad's fleet arrived at the port city of Mecca, the port that was once only able to accommodate 5 ships weighing 5000 tons has now turned into a large and most advanced port in the Arabian Peninsula and north of the aftika that is able to accommodate 100-120 ships with a weight reaching 20,000-24,000 tons.
With this enormous port capacity, the Ottoman Empire built a 5th fleet named al-ahmaddin with a force of 40 ships of line 125 cannons, 400 freegat ships 56 cannons, and 400 ships, 100 Steamships 78 guns and 50 steel ships with 80 B-3 guns made by the Sundanese Sultanate.
The ahmad state ship docked to the port and lowered its anchor.
Ahmad along with the governors General of the Sunda Sultanate went down, after which they along with the guards rested.
The mayor and commander of the division of the mecca army also welcomed the arrival of ahmad and the other governor-general in the mayor's office and chatted for a moment.
Echoes of Azan were heard they went straight to the mosque with other worshippers.
After the congregational prayers the Governor-General of the Sunda Sultanate made work visits to several places in mecca and conducted trade.
Meanwhile, Ahmad along with the general of the chakras of souls disguised as a personal bodyguard ahmad went to riyadh the capital of the hejaz kingdom.
Using a medium-sized locomotive built with the funds of the Sunda Sultanate through the Ottoman Empire the hejaz empire is now better than the previous ones only traveling on horseback, camels and donkeys now have rails connecting them to Ottoman trading centers such as Baghdad, mecca, angkara, Damascus, and Medina.
In the locomotive ahmad use 1 special carriages that have been prepared before and full of guard.
Cakrajiwa is no longer disguised and wearing his military uniform.
"Baginda's got a report from our embassy in hejaz"
"Explain"
"Ready, from the radio connection of our ambassador, Mr. ahadiyah reported that there is currently a political problem in the capital because there is an ideological faction of the people... Strangely, they call it socialism Sire"
Immediately the ahmad became serious and stared at the cakrajiwa.
"What did you say?! Socialism!"
"Truly Sire, they also used the image of the hammer and ship on the red cloth as a flag"
"Damn it! What the fuck! Socialism in the late 18th and early 19th centuries?! Why comes a troublesome ideology when I want to build an oil refinery" cried ahmad in his heart
"Baginda... Is something wrong? "
"W-uh! Not really, well explain to me who spread this ideology?"
"The one who spread this ideology was a former Catholic priest, his name was Karl marx von eutzech"
"what! How can his name be similar! But there's a family here?"ahmad shouted in his heart
"Is that so, former catholic priest?"
"Right, Your Majesty, our ambassador is already looking for information about him and he is a former priest of the descent of one of the nobles in the Holy Roman Empire"
"Alright Thank you infonya cakrajiwa, immediately prepare whatever we need"
"Ready sir"
Cakrajiwa left and immediately prepared various interests before arriving in the city of riyadh while ahmad was thinking of ways to keep the socialist ideology from spreading further.
3 Hours later, since the journey from the city of mekkah, the locomotive was boarded by ahmad arrived in the city of riyadh and king adam shahhadi al-saud also welcomed ahmad at the station with the ambassador of the Sultanate of Sunda ahadiyah Shah.
""Welcome, Sire, welcome to the city of riyadh""
"Thank you for the welcome, brother adam, and also lord ahadiyah. It means a lot to me. Adam's brother doesn't need to be formal. We are sultans. Just call me by my name like a true brother"
"No, Sire, I can't do that. Sundanese Sultanate has been very meritorious to my kingdom and as a tribute of course I can not"
"Brother adam, this is my request. Just call me by name because I don't like the formalities between the sultan's brothers"
"Then so good, brother ahmad once again welcome to riyadh"
After coming out of the locomotive ahmad, adam and ahadiyah also watched the sword dance to welcome the arrival of ahmad.
Ahmad also participated in a typical Saudi sword dance because in the world of origin ahmad can only see TV or sosmed.
After the reception is completed ahmad directly delivered to the guest palace, you could say this guest palace is quite large with a land area reaching 2870m², there is also an archery area and a horse race venue.
