Bulgarian Empire

Chapter 160, William's preparation

The genius remembers the address of this site in a second: (Apex Chinese), the fastest update! No advertisements!? The United Kingdom of Germany and Russia is the abbreviation of the United Kingdom of Texas and Oklahoma. From the beginning of this country, It was established by mutual compromise.

Including the name of the country, it was determined after a lot of fighting between dragons and tigers.

Open the map and you will know that Oklahoma depends on Texas economically. As an inland state, Oklahoma has no access to the sea and must borrow from Texas.

Politically, these two states are not very popular with the federal government. Eighty to ninety percent of the people in Texas want to become independent and establish the Lone Star Republic.

Oklahoma is not much better. As an inland state in the United States, it only joined the United States in 1907, so you know the attitude of the local people towards the US government.

It can be said that the United Kingdom of Germany and Russia was established completely voluntarily, which is the will of the local people.

The economic crisis broke out, and the nascent German-Russian United Kingdom did not escape.

As a free capitalist country, the stock market is essential, so the current German-Russian United Kingdom is not having a good time.

Logically speaking, William had just been crowned king of this country, and he should have had a headache when he encountered such a big trouble.

In fact, on the contrary, His Majesty William has been in a very good mood recently.

As a constitutional monarchy, his powers as a king are very limited. The economic crisis is a disaster for the cabinet government, but an opportunity for the king.

If nothing happened, why would he, a foreign king, meddle in government affairs?

Only when the cabinet fails, does the king need to take action to clean up the mess.

In peacetime, in almost all constitutional monarchy countries, the cabinet subconsciously rejects the king from taking power.

Therefore, the cabinet officials are all masters of political struggle, and they are all winners who have fought their way out of thousands of troops. In normal times, most of the kings cannot compete with the cabinet.

Similarly, these elected cabinets also have a problem, that is, their ability to govern is far less than their ability to brag.

When facing a crisis, you can only rely on your individual talent, not one step at a time, working from the grassroots, and their abilities have always been an unknown.

William put down the new economic policy in his hands, and he is still waiting for the cabinet's bailout plan to market. This new economic plan began to be compiled five years ago.

Not only the United Kingdom of Germany and Russia, but several other fraternal countries have similar plans. After many improvements and supplements, it cannot be said to be impeccable now, and basically there are no major loopholes.

"Your Majesty, the Progressive Party launched an attack in Congress today, and they criticized the Liberal Party's bailout plan as a cover for the retreat of capitalists, leaving the losses to the government and ordinary shareholders!

Kazahi was questioned by the Congress today, but he was not able to satisfy the congressmen. The situation is becoming more and more unfavorable for the cabinet, and the Progressive Party is still preparing the impeachment case.

If the domestic economic situation does not improve for a long time, then Prime Minister Kadashi will become the first prime minister to leave early before the end of his term of office since the establishment of the kingdom! said Monas in a low voice.

There is no doubt that this Monas is the intelligence officer next to William, and the German-Russian United Kingdom has almost been infiltrated by his intelligence organization.

To be able to develop so smoothly is of course the role of King William. It's not for anything else, just to inquire about the news inside the government, and few people will try to hide it.

"Continue to monitor, wait and see what the cabinet will do next, let our people give Kazashi some hints!" William said calmly

Even if he is to implement the new economic plan, he still needs someone who will take the blame, whether it is the current cabinet or the next cabinet.

It is impossible for any policy to satisfy everyone, so it is very necessary to leave a target that attracts hatred.

Only when the cabinet draws fire, the king hiding behind the scenes is safe. Everyone's struggle is nothing more than driving out the cabinet and replacing it with one of our own.

Instead of the king standing in the foreground, pulling hatred on his own, and then inducing a revolutionary party.

The lessons of history tell him that the king who goes to the guillotine is not necessarily a faint king or a tyrant, but he must be a king who has enough hatred.

For example, Louis XVI of France, it seems that he didn't do anything outrageous, right?

After handing over the power to the government, I do research in the hardware workshop every day, and in the end, I still go to the guillotine?

The reason is too simple. The government did bad things in the name of the king, and all the blame was given to the king, so the French people rose to punish the tyrant.

Then the high-ranking government official changed suddenly and became the new high-ranking government official again, and all the crimes were pushed to the king.

When the man died, the French realized that they seemed to have killed the wrong person, and in the end they could only make the mistake and pin the crime on him.

In fact, Louis XVI has already been emptied, just playing with machinery in the hardware workshop.

There are such cases, the kings of Europe have all learned their skills, and no longer let the government do things under their own banner, and the measures introduced by the government can only be in the name of the government.

The same is true for William. How many reformers have come to a good end since ancient times?

The American people have always had a tradition of killing the president. For safety reasons, he must find a prime minister to stand up to him.

Just like Ferdinand has always put Constantine in the foreground, even if someone is dissatisfied with the government, it is only dissatisfaction with the cabinet government. Everyone thinks that the king is still a good king.

...

It is true that Prime Minister Gaddahi is having a hard time right now. Since the outbreak of the economic crisis, his good days have come to an end.

Although he supported William's succession, he actually opposed the leader of William's succession, isn't it strange? This is politics!

After Ferdinand's efforts, most people in the United Kingdom of Germany and Russia chose William as king, but they were afraid that the king would be restless, so they elected an opposition cabinet to check and balance the king's rights.

As a result, after William succeeded to the throne, everyone found that all these tasks were done for nothing. The king was very peaceful. He traveled around the country when he had nothing to do, and occasionally gave a speech.

Except for the one-third of an acre of land in the palace, the king seemed to have no interest in politics, and never took the initiative to intervene in government affairs.

In this way, the war between the king and the government that everyone expected naturally exists, everyone is hello, hello, hello, everyone.

Kazahi's role in balancing the king ceased to exist, and with the outbreak of the economic crisis, the public's support for him naturally decreased. At this time, political opponents began to attack him.

What the new German-Russian United Kingdom needs is a king who can strengthen the solidarity of the people, not a king with real power.

William completed this task very well. Since he took the throne, the public's sense of identity with this country has greatly increased.

The cabinet and the king are almost inseparable. Half a year has passed, and the number of times Kazahi and William have seen each other can be counted on the fingers.

William never summoned him, and everyone knew that he disliked him, and he would not take the initiative to come to the door if there was nothing wrong, which seemed to be a bit of a deadlock.

"Your Excellency Prime Minister, all our previous plans have failed. If we do not take strong measures, the opposition party will not allow us to pass the test easily!" said the Chancellor of the Exchequer, frowning.

"There is no doubt about it, but what should we do now? This economic crisis has caused so much damage, so many governments around the world are trying to find ways to tide over the difficulties, but so far, none of them have succeeded!

Strong measures? You mean to let us intervene in the market economy, can this work? " Kazahi said with a headache

This is the first time they have encountered this situation, and they have no experience at all. The so-called bailout measures are also copied from other countries and then localized and modified.

Now that it has failed, they have to take new measures at this time, whether it is useful or not, they must take action until the economic crisis is over.

This is the most conventional way to deal with it. Anyway, the economic crisis cannot last forever. As long as we survive this period of time and the excess production capacity is eliminated, everything will return to normal.

In a short-term economic crisis, it is indeed possible to do this, but this time is different. The losses are too great, and there are too many unemployed people, which has exceeded the country's capacity to absorb.

"Yes, Your Excellency Prime Minister! In this economic crisis, there are only two countries that suffered the least damage in the world, one is Soviet Russia and the other is Bulgaria.

Needless to say, Soviet Russia did not have any industry and market rules, which we cannot learn from.

After the outbreak of the economic crisis in Bulgaria, the government took measures to intervene in the market and directly blocked the economic crisis.

Of course, our situation is different from theirs. They have formed their own system and are not restricted by the outside world. It is impossible for us to reach that point.

But we can also learn some things, such as suspending stock market trading first, strengthening the control of the banking industry, and investing in some infrastructure construction with government money to increase a number of jobs. "Sass, the chancellor of the exchequer, suggested

"Can this work?" Kazashi frowned and said

Suspension of stock market trading and regulation of the banking industry are all in the pockets of capitalists. Although the market can be stabilized in the short term, the capitalists are not easy to mess with, they will kill if they are in a hurry!

"Your Excellency, we have no choice, if we don't take action, we will leave here!

The people's patience has reached the limit, and everyone's dissatisfaction with the government has reached the limit. The next time Congress opens, it's time for us to leave! "Sass said seriously.

The capitalists are not easy to mess with, but are the people easy to mess with? This is Texas, where the folk customs are tough, and they won't stand still. If they don't have money to buy food, they will grab it!

Once this happens, their government will be finished, and no one will let them go!

Regulating the banking industry is only the first step, and the more important thing is to get the right to issue money. In the United States, the Federal Reserve is responsible for printing money. Although Germany, Russia, and the United Kingdom do not have a Federal Reserve, their right to issue money is still divided among capitalists.

However, Texas and Oklahoma in this era are synonymous with backcountry, and the local consortia have not yet developed.

The strength of the capitalists is not so strong, so William dared to send money to the doctrine of power. If there were several big consortiums, he would definitely not do it at this time.

Letting the government supervise the banks is just a test for capitalists. It is good if it succeeds, but if it fails, it will be a big deal to be more careful in the following actions.

"Okay then, just give it a try! Regardless of the current situation, don't expect these capitalists to support us!"

"By the way, what has our Majesty the King been up to lately? In the past six months, he seems to have been peaceful and unreasonable. It's impossible for him to really be traveling around, right?" Kazahi said with a wry smile.

In order to be in power, he became William's political enemy, so naturally he didn't want His Majesty William to cooperate with their cabinet's actions?

At this moment, if King William stepped forward to make trouble for them again, their life would be even more difficult.

"I have made several speeches, encouraging the public to face the crisis with strength, and organized several charitable donations. Now I am filming a public welfare film!" said the Secretary of the Interior, frowning.

"Forget it, don't worry about him, as long as he doesn't come out and cause trouble for us!" Kazaxi said with a frown

There is no doubt that what William is doing now is all about buying people's hearts and increasing his influence.

However, they couldn't stop His Majesty the King from coming out to be a good person, even if they knew that all this was just for show, they couldn't stand up and tear things down!
