My Italian

Chapter 109: Unexpected Governor Lanfang

After thinking about it for two or three days, Carlo has never been able to find a suitable candidate, which made him want to choose the taller one from the short ones first.

But thinking of the importance of Borneo's colonies to Italy, he held back the idea.

However, the issue of the candidate for the governor-general, the delay in the selection, has prevented the Italian reception work from being carried out. For this reason, the Prime Minister's Office has sent people to urge it.

"Your Majesty, I heard that you are worried about the candidate for Governor Lanfang?"

The long-no-show Chief Alejad suddenly appeared in front of Carlo.

How could he forget this one, and only when he clapped his head did he think of this old man who had been king for three generations. He would definitely have a solution.

"Yes, I'm worried about this."

Then Carlo told the old man his request for Governor Lanfang, and he completely got rid of his own considerations.

After listening to Carlo's remarks, Director Allejad touched the chin of his gray beard and said. "In this way, this candidate is really difficult to choose, and there are not many people who are qualified for this position of governor."

"Yes, there are no more than five people with this ability in the government, but none of them will be able to serve as this governor."

Facing the words of Director Al Rajad, Carlo also made his own complaints.

"If you don't have it in the government, you can only find it outside the government. If Your Majesty has no other requirements for this position, you can still find it."

"Who can I find here?"

Carlos was very curious about the words of Director Alejad?

"Actually, His Majesty's choice for Governor Lanfang was entirely a trumpet prime minister, so why not choose from among the real prime ministers?"

Director Alejad's words opened Carlo's mind.

Indeed, if you don't have to worry about the faction of the candidate, when no one is available, there is no better choice than those who have been prime ministers before.

Seeing that Carlo had already figured it out, Director Allejad bowed slightly. "Your Majesty, I will retire first."

"Thank you, Your Excellency, for your help."

Carlo took the old man's hand and said words of thanks with a sincere expression that had never been seen before.

"To share your worries for Your Majesty, this is just what I should do."

Carlo finally breathed a sigh of relief after sending the old political man away. At least there was a candidate. Of course, his knowledge of the head steward of Alejad is also higher. It is no wonder that he has been the chief steward of the royal family for so many years, and he can still gain enough trust. He really has a set of skills.

Of course, the head of the palace gave the idea, so Carlo needs to choose a candidate. The first thing that came to his mind was the stern face, former Prime Minister Cairoli.

Needless to say, in terms of ability, if it wasn't for his unfortunate encounter with the Tunisian crisis, neither himself nor DePretis would want to overthrow him. Being a small governor of Lanfang is not easy, even if there are many things that he needs to do.

And there is another advantage of choosing Cairoli as the former prime minister. Prime Minister De Pretis will definitely agree. Although both are members of left-wing parties, De Pretis is definitely willing to kick it far away. .

In addition, Cairoli is also the youngest former prime minister. Born in 1826, he is only 59 years old and can withstand the bumps and go to Lanfang.

Although Cairoli took Carlo's face fiercely at that time, what is a political creature, that is, a revenge for killing his father, as long as there is enough interest, he can make a long live friendship.

Although Carlo can't reach this level, Carlo has long forgotten about the trivial matter of saving face. How much face is worth, let's come up with two pounds first.

The more he thought about it, the more satisfied Carlo immediately called the captain of the guard.

"Felix Mitch, what is the former Prime Minister Cairoli doing now?"

Facing Carlo's sudden question about the former prime minister, the captain of the bodyguard was stunned for a moment, and then said. "Currently, Your Excellency Cairoli, living in his hometown of Piacenza, in addition to planting flowers, fishing, or gathering with friends on weekdays."

"It seems that the former prime minister lives very comfortably."

Hearing the words of the captain of the guard Filimic, Carlo couldn't help but say.

"By the way, Captain of the Guard, I need you to go and invite the former Prime Minister to Rome."

"what…"

Facing Carlo's words, Filimic was very surprised.

But he will react quickly. "Okay, Your Majesty, I'll send someone now, not me to invite myself."

I am very satisfied with the answer from the chief of the guard. Carlo has been entangled in the question of candidates for a while, and we can talk about it when the former prime minister comes over.

Although the captain of the guard did not know the purpose of Carlo letting the former prime minister come to Rome, he felt that it must not be easy, so he invited him in person.

Two days later, he rushed back to Rome with the former prime minister.

"I really didn't expect to return to Rome for a day."

Looking at the scene outside the carriage, the former prime minister couldn't help but sigh.

"Where, it's just that Your Excellency doesn't care about it on weekdays."

The captain of the guard, who was in the same carriage, opened his mouth to meet him.

"Don't compliment me anymore, I know my situation. I'm just a little curious, why did Carlo, the young monarch, suddenly remembered to meet him."

After all, who was the prime minister, he didn't care about the compliments of the captain of the guards. And he himself knew that losing Tunisia during his tenure made it impossible for him to return to politics at all.

Soon the carriage came to the palace. After getting off the carriage, the chief guard took the Prime Minister through a series of familiar scenes, all the way to outside Carlo's office.

After a brief briefing, Cairolli saw the boy, no, the young monarch.

"I have seen Your Majesty."

Cairoli slightly bent his body, showing his due respect to the royal family.

"Hello, Your Excellency Cairolli."

This is the first time the two have met in recent years. Compared with before, Carlo is like a rising sun, and he can't stop the rising sun that he should have. The former prime minister, like the ending sun, can only The last rays of sunset glow.

Now the two people's identities have changed, which is very embarrassing.

Carlo finally began to speak first. "Your Excellency Kairoli, how are you doing in your hometown?"

"It's not bad. It's good to grow flowers and fish, and then chat with friends. It's very good."

Facing Cairoli's answer, Carlo decided to go straight to the point. "This kind of life is enviable, but maybe Your Excellency can't continue this kind of life."

"Oh, why?"

Carlo gave the reason. "Because I want to invite your Excellency to be the governor of the first Italian colony."

"Okay. UU reading www.uukanshu.com"

"Because Your Excellency, ah!"

Carlo was a little surprised. He didn't expect the former prime minister to agree so quickly, which made him feel a little caught off guard.

Looking at the young monarch with a surprised expression, Cairoli explained with a smile. "Although living in my hometown is very comfortable, I'm more used to being busy. So this time, no matter what Your Majesty wants me to do, I'm going to give it a try."

Well, Carlo can see that the former prime minister is now letting go of his inner burden and doing whatever he wants, but in this state he has nothing to say other than envy.

Since the former prime minister had agreed to become the governor of Lanfang, Carlo told him his request in a single stroke.

And the former prime minister listened to Carlo's many demands, smiling and showing no other expressions throughout the whole process. It seems that he thinks Carlo's demands are within his ability.

Now that the candidate has been decided, of course, it must be reported to the Prime Minister, because this can no longer be delayed. So later that day, the Prime Minister received the appointment.

"This guy Kairoli is going to be the Governor of Lanfang?"

Looking at the documents sent from the palace, the prime minister had a surprised expression on his face. Although he didn't know why the young monarch appointed this guy as the Governor of Lanfang, he immediately realized that this was an opportunity and kicked him far away.

So after a period of consideration, Prime Minister DePretis signed his name.

Of course, this news inevitably spread in Rome. However, compared with the surprise of middle and lower-level officials, upper-level politicians will not pay much attention to the appointment. Although it was somewhat unexpected, everyone knew that the political life of the former prime minister had come to an end, and that his role as the governor of the Italian colony was already the limit.
