Bulgarian Empire

Chapter 47: The Moroccan Crisis

Ferdinand listened to the report on the main events that occurred in Bulgaria over the past two months, and made some comments.

After the matter was settled, he was soon attracted by an entertainment news! Yes, in Ferdinand's opinion, this is entertainment news, not political news!

The capitol of the Manchu Empire was completed, and it still adhered to the consistent style of the old empire. It was luxurious, high-end, and upscale, which shocked everyone. Compared with it, the capitol of Bulgaria was a bit embarrassing.

But that's not the point. Anyway, Ferdinand is used to it. Even though Bulgaria's mainland has been expanded several times, he has no intention of rebuilding the Capitol.

Just use it! Anyway, it doesn't take a few days a year, it's just that when the conference is held, it's a little bit crowded, as long as everyone's tables, chairs and benches can be put down, that's enough.

Oh, the Bulgarian government doesn't care about the Capitol anymore, there are so many places to spend money, it can save a fortune!

As for MPs? Anyway, you don't live there every day, and the total time you stay in it for a year is less than two days. Who cares about this?

As for whether it will lose face? To be honest, Ferdinand never cared about it. Even if he wanted to save face, he would still prefer to get an extra dreadnought. At least everyone would say that Bulgaria's industry is strong, and they would not lament that Bulgaria is rich!

The above is all nonsense, the point is that the Manchu Qing government sent representatives to Bulgaria to come to inspect the constitutional government and prepare for the establishment of a constitutional monarchy!

Isn't this entertainment news?

Is there anything to learn from Bulgaria's constitutional proposals?

Ferdinand was very skeptical. He didn't even realize how superior Bulgaria's constitutional system is. He just said that it was just making do with it!

On the surface, Bulgaria has also fully implemented a constitutional monarchy, but in fact everyone is used to being Ferdinand's echo, which cannot be learned!

But the Manchu Qing government didn’t know about it! They only saw Bulgaria become a new great power from a small country in the Balkans through constitutional monarchy, which shows the superiority of their system!

Most importantly, after the constitutional monarchy was fully implemented, Ferdinand's rights remained unchecked, which met their requirements.

Therefore, after inspecting Britain, the United States, Japan, Germany and other countries, it is planned to establish a constitutional monarchy based on Japan and Germany, and now Bulgaria is added.

Well, this is why Ferdinand regarded him as entertainment news, which is completely impossible!

Unless Zaifeng has the courage to learn from Ferdinand, he gave up the fixed royal annuity at the beginning of his succession and directly changed it to 1% of the fiscal revenue, so as to show his determination to the outside world and gain prestige for the royal family!

Obviously this is impossible! If only a little of the royal family's expenses were withdrawn, it is estimated that the Manchu and Qing royal families would fall apart!

With such a little money, you can’t go hungry, but if you want to continue to maintain a luxurious life, don’t even think about it!

At that time, Ferdinand was once known as the poorest king in the world, and many people in the outside world were speculating when he would go bankrupt.

However, with the rise of Bulgaria, these remarks gradually disappeared. Perhaps in the future, some people will call him the greatest businessman in the world. It is not a dream to become the richest man in the world by relying on the royal annuity!

From less than 20,000 pounds at the beginning of his succession to more than one million pounds now, it has increased dozens of times, but no one in the world blames Ferdinand for this, he deserves it!

This is similar to that of a professional manager. It is normal for a small company that is on the verge of bankruptcy to become a listed company and receive dividends!

And the Manchu Qing government is undoubtedly impossible to do it, not in the system, the key lies in the people! When people are rotten, no matter how good the system is, it will collapse!

As for the current Manchu Qing government, is there such a powerful figure? Now the British are optimistic about Yuan Shikai, but Ferdinand knows that history has proved that he can't do it!

Entertainment news is entertainment news, Ferdinand smiles and forgets, if you want to visit, just visit, I just hope that these bureaucrats will not come to such a weird conclusion!

Previously,

After the Sudanese government sent people to investigate Bulgaria's constitutional system, they came to a strange conclusion. They believed that the people of Bulgaria were easy to rule, and there was no room for the revolutionary party to survive!

Well, since it is a good rule, who was the Bulgarian War of Independence fought against?

In this regard, the bureaucrats of the two old empires are really evenly matched! After all, the Manchu Qing government learned about the United States and France in the study of constitutionalism, and sent overseas students to Japan. I really don't know what was going on in their minds!

A constitutional monarchy should learn from a constitutional monarchy and a republic. Isn’t this encouraging everyone to rise up for revolution?

To learn advanced scientific and technological knowledge, you don’t go to an industrialized country to study, but you go to Japan. Don’t you know that Japan is still sending international students to study in Europe?

What is this to learn? At that time, Japan was not much more advanced than the Qing Dynasty, and its industrial technology was second- and third-rate, and it was already behind before it was learned. No wonder everyone went to learn about the revolution!

(Tucao ends here, but now...)

"Tell the embassy, ​​if they want to come, come! Just follow the normal reception of diplomatic envoys." Ferdinand said lightly

Now Bulgaria is also a big power. According to the normal diplomatic etiquette, it is Ferdinand who gave face, otherwise it will be over after a while. Anyway, the Manchu Qing government is also used to being bullied this year.

However, the relationship between the two countries is still decent now. Bulgaria also mediated the war of invasion of China by the Eight-Power Allied Forces. Although it only helped to pass on the news, it did not play any role, but this did not prevent the Qing bureaucrats from gaining favor!

There is no way, the major powers in the world are all expanding in the Far East, causing the Manchu Qing government to suffer. If they do not establish good relations, if Bulgaria comes to them again, this life will be even more difficult!

Oh, if it wasn't for Ferdinand's stop, Bulgaria would probably be expanding its power in the Qing Dynasty, and because of its lack of strength in the Far East, apart from drawing enough hatred, the actual gains would be limited.

...

In addition to this entertainment news, Ferdinand also paid more attention to the Moroccan issue. Judging by the international situation, the second Moroccan crisis is coming soon.

In 19o9, Germany and France signed the "French-German Agreement". The French recognized the independence of Morocco and allowed Germany to obtain the same economic benefits; the same Germans also stated that Germany was only pursuing economic interests and recognized France's political interests in Morocco. status.

The signing of the "French-German Agreement" made the politicians of Germany and France very happy. They believed that the opportunity to eliminate the contradictions between the two countries had come, and everyone could completely resolve the root causes of the contradictions between the two sides through negotiations.

But Ferdinand knew that this was impossible! John Bull cannot tolerate the reconciliation of Germany and France. Once this happens, the British Empire's world hegemony will be shaken.

After all, once France and Germany reach a reconciliation, is it difficult for the Germans to reconcile with Russia and Bulgaria? The conflict between everyone is not a conflict of core interests. Without the influence of the French loan, Russia and Bulgaria would definitely not mind reconciliation.

The conflicts between the major powers in the world have been resolved, and everyone has freed up their hands. Is there any need to think about what they will do?

The British Empire occupies so many interests in the world, and Ferdinand believes that once this happens, it will be time for everyone to join hands to divide up the cattle.

Even the Americans who hide in the American continent and make a lot of money don't want to be alone. Once the countries on the European continent unite, it is inevitable to return to the American continent!

John Bull will definitely do something, otherwise the European shit stirrer will lose its reputation!

...

Thanks to the efforts of Niu Niu, none of this happened. The situation in Morocco has become unstable. Many tribes have rebelled. It is not far from the time when the French send troops to intervene. will explode.

Time flies by, and it entered 1911 in a flash, and the rebel army has surrounded Dufes, Morocco.

"Your Majesty, two days ago the French sent troops to occupy Fez under the pretext of restoring order in Morocco; yesterday the Spaniards also sent troops to occupy northern Morocco!"

After receiving this news, Ferdinand breathed a sigh of relief. Although the international situation has deviated from the historical track, the main contradictions in the world have not changed fundamentally!

As for why it took a few days to receive the news? Ferdinand was not surprised at all, and the French are not stupid, they can still simply block the news!
