Blackstone Code

Chapter 774: collision

Sometimes His Majesty Emperor Gevula hated his father, his grandfather and the so-called ancestors.

Obviously there is a chance that this country will become a toy in the hands of the royal family, but these people have chosen the most stupid way to rule this country.

Decentralizing power to the nobles and allowing the nobles to restrict the power of the royal family seems to be a very balanced approach.

The power of the nobility will not be too inflated, and the power in the hands of the emperor will not be out of control because of the dictatorship, but as an emperor, he is very unhappy now.

The Secretary of Defense's request is very reasonable. The finance of a country is a very important task. Now the position of the Minister of Finance is vacant, and the specific matters are decided by everyone through consultation.

At first glance, this approach seems to be very good. The result of everyone's negotiation will definitely not be biased towards one side, and everyone...at least most people think it is appropriate to do so, and then make the same decision.

But the fact is that this has seriously interfered with the normal operation of fiscal work, and the new Chancellor of the Exchequer has not filled the vacancy, and the position of the Department of Finance cannot be placed in casually for the time being.

In case the future candidates and the current situation change, the people who have been inserted everywhere are likely to be kicked out, which will make everyone look bad. So far, the deputy from everywhere is presiding over the work.

It is necessary to come up with a charter to elect the Minister of Finance as soon as possible, so as not to allow certain minor matters to seriously affect the speed of work due to non-content factors such as position.

But the problem is that asking it at this time and asking it in this place does not seem to be a discussion, but it seems to be forcing the emperor to make a decision. Whether it is good or bad, these people are forcing him and are not willing to give him. More opportunities to prepare.

After a moment of silence, the emperor said, "Do you have any good suggestions for the new minister of finance?"

Use the new chancellor to stabilize other ministers. The emperor gave the nomination power to the ministers. In fact, what he meant was obvious. He still kept the chancellor in a relatively neutral position. For the time being, he was unwilling to fall out with these ministers. .

The Secretary of the Navy kept silent. He lowered his head and looked at the ring on his finger, as if thinking about something.

For the Secretary of the Navy, no matter who is the Minister of Finance, it is impossible to be short of the various budgets of the Navy. Gevlar's current most powerful force, and the only force that can be used, is the Navy.

Not giving money to the navy is tantamount to slashing yourself, or at the most painful place. No matter who comes to be the Chancellor of the Exchequer, he will inevitably be the same as before, talking and laughing with him.

The Secretary of the Army looked up at the paintings on the top of the hall, immersed in the ocean of art like a scholar obsessed with studying various arts.

Strengthening the construction of the army is also the result of everyone's discussion, and under the shift of focus, the value of the navy in the Anmelia region is actually not great.

They can never fire artillery bombardment of their own cities, the navy's deterrent power is almost equal to no, the army is the most important one.

The "Huge Land Nation" plan has entered the implementation stage. The role of the army is becoming more and more obvious and more important. He doesn't worry about anyone who dares to hold the army's pocketbook. That is purely not wanting to live.

Most of the other ministers were either fluctuating or silent. They were not very interested in the proposal of who could be the minister of finance.

Some people's eyes have turned to the Prime Minister, and the Prime Minister is also silent, as if for a while everyone in the hall has lost the ability to speak.

After I don't know how long it was, about two or three minutes, maybe a little longer, the Prime Minister suddenly broke the silence in the hall.

"It seems that there is no suitable candidate in everyone's mind. It is better to let me take this job temporarily, and when everyone thinks of a suitable candidate, we will redistribute the work."

He didn't hesitate to speak, looking directly at His Majesty the Emperor, and the two looked at each other at a distance of more than ten meters.

The emperor was condescending, the prime minister raised his head, and the two looked at each other.

The Prime Minister's eyes were very gentle, without any offensiveness, there were some smiles in his eyes, and the courtesy of a courtier to the emperor.

The emperor's eyes were a bit sharp, as if he was asking why the Prime Minister dared to do this, and dare to really do it?

The two did not give in to each other. After looking at each other for a while, His Majesty shook his head, "The Prime Minister's work is busy, and your complexion is very bad during this period. If you are also working as the Chancellor of the Exchequer, I don't want to call... Come and scold me for exploiting his husband."

The woman described by His Majesty the Emperor is the wife of the Prime Minister and the daughter of a nobleman, who has a blood relationship with the royal family.

Her father's aunt is the granddaughter of the emperor's grandfather's grandfather, and it sounds like it should be a grandmother of the emperor's grandfather.

In terms of relationship, this is indeed the case, but in fact, when the royal family and aristocrats are discussing these issues, the "nobleness" in their mouths is always only related to blood.

First one-half, then one-quarter, then one-eighth, one-sixteenth, one-thirty-two. According to family status, the prime minister should also be the "brother" of the emperor.

Regardless of the fact that the two parties still seem to have some blood relations, once the power is involved, everyone in this hall can achieve the level of a loved one.

For them, everything can be lost, but they can't lose their rights.

Just like federal capitalists, they can throw away all the things that people think are precious, but they can't let others touch their wealth.

The truth is the same. Having power or wealth is equivalent to owning everything. Others are just a kind of "illusion" of life, just a spice to embellish their boring life.

His Majesty's evasive attitude gave the Prime Minister some thoughts. He could feel that the emperor was avoiding and sharpening this issue. If it were in peacetime, the Prime Minister would give it up, but this time he couldn't give it up.

"Your Majesty, there are some things we can delay, but the sooner this kind of thing has results, the more responsible it will be for us, for the country, and for the people."

The Prime Minister looked at His Majesty and said what he wanted to say, "If your Majesty has no suitable candidates, it is better to let the nobles of the Privy Council discuss together..."

This is a tradition many years ago. When ministers disagree with the emperor, the Privy Council can intervene.

At the beginning of the dynasty, the idea of ​​the possible founding emperor was imperial power. The three interest groups of the minister and the noble group opposed each other and helped each other, not allowing any one interest group to surpass the other two.

However, in the subsequent implementation process, the Privy Council and those nobles who should have been like members of the Federal Congress gradually became bystanders.

Now the Prime Minister wants to let the Privy Council discuss it, which is in line with Gevlar’s ​​laws and policies, but... the Prime Minister’s intentions are also too obvious.

The emperor hesitated for a while, and finally nodded, "Yes, let the Privy Council discuss it."

His Majesty the Emperor took a step back, and the Prime Minister actually took a step back. They moved the main battlefield from the Hall of Rulers to the Privy Council. The next step is to fight for the nobles as much as possible.

In His Majesty's eyes, he has an inherent advantage over the Prime Minister.

This is not to say that he is the advantage of the imperial emperor, but the advantage of "the chancellor is an individual".

If the prime minister is allowed to concurrently serve as the minister of finance, then the finance department will be packed with a large number of prime ministers, and the position of the minister of power will be lost by one.

But if the prime minister is not allowed to be held by someone else, more nobles in the Privy Council will be able to hold power, and some of them will be able to directly become the next power minister.

This temptation is indeed more attractive than the prime minister concurrently serving as the Minister of Finance.

The eyes of the two were separated, and everyone began to discuss some other things, such as... some of the aftermath of the round financing book.

With hundreds of millions of funds and hundreds of millions of black holes, the whole world is paying attention to this case, and His Majesty and the ministers are actually a headache.

If it is not handled well, it will become an international laughingstock. This is something people do not want to bear.

"Your Majesty, the problem of golden coupons is easy to solve..." The attitude of the prime minister who entered the working state has undergone a completely different change from before, becoming serious and responsible.

He adjusted his sitting posture, and the "chamber meeting" between the minister of Gevlar and the emperor was more like a morning tea that might not be so leisurely at times.

"We refunded different batches of gold coupons with different denominations. The gold coupons are the only proof. Many people have torn up their gold coupons before, which also saved some funds for our return work..."

After Yuan Finance was defined as a fraud, Yuanrong Gold Coupons immediately became waste paper, and financial products that some people were willing to spend money to buy were worth the price of waste paper in an instant.

Many people, out of venting their anger and other ideas, tore up those golden coupons, coupled with the Prime Minister’s strategy of clearing and retiring, although some of the money was secretly transferred by Richard in various ways and could not be retrieved.

However, in general, it is not a big problem to clear the loss of the refund voucher. Everyone will lose a little. At this time, as long as not all lose in it, everyone can accept it.

"The most troublesome problem now is the stock issue of Yuan Capital. This is the hardest hit area. Many people invest in it. They think their losses should be paid by the empire~lightnovelpub.net~If we want to take the money ourselves It is obviously impossible to come out to make up for the losses of these people, but if they can't get compensation, they will continue to make trouble."

"So we should think of a countermeasure that can solve these problems, at least let them not continue to make trouble."

The current public opinion is that the Minister of Finance colluded with Richard, the chairman of Yuan Capital, through some behind-the-scenes money rights transactions, and illegally listed Yuan Capital.

Therefore, the losses of stockholders should be borne by two parts. The first part is the round financing capital, and the second part is the country represented by the Chancellor of Finance.

Yuan financing is already finished, and it is impossible to ask for money from them, but the empire is still there. Those people's thinking is that at least a little bit, 50%, will do.

Simple to say but difficult to do.

A black hole of several hundred million, even 50%, is still one or two billion. This sum of money is not so easy to make up!

At least the national treasury is definitely impossible!
