Bernard was speechless, no matter how big the danger was, he couldn't survive. Future problems, let's talk about it in the future. Only after the current disaster, can we have the capital to consider these problems.
The threat of the Russians was felt by everyone. The loss of property is only a small problem. The key is that personal safety is not guaranteed.
The depression in Ganisburg was because the tsar's military discipline was too poor, and he had to be nervous on the street. Who would dare to do business?
A priest suggested: "Shall we discuss with the nobles in the city?"
Bishop Bernard hurriedly said, "No! Father Ren, you should know the situation of the aristocrats in the city now, the Russians are staring at them dead. Now we want to leave the house?"
The Junker aristocrats were still very loyal to the Kingdom of Prussia. Many of the youths led the guerrillas behind the enemy. Naturally, the Russians paid great attention.
It ’s not that Bishop Bernard does n’t support the guerrillas. It ’s that East Prussia is too small. There are 380,000 Russian troops gathered on more than 30,000 square kilometers of land. How can this be fun?
The end is naturally self-evident, the resistance team was completely destroyed, and the people supporting the guerrillas suffered heavy losses. The Russians used corpses to teach them a lesson: Don't do things.
This is why the local aristocrats want to gather together. They are really scared. They are worried that the Russian barbarian's head will blow and they will click.
Everyone gathered, even if someone had a head blow and wanted to do something, the noble officers in the Russian army would stop it, which was their common class interest.
The aristocrats are hard to protect themselves, and now they are likely to catch fire. Under normal circumstances, the Russian army would not say to them, those in the religious circles, that they would not be allowed to come forward.
James deliberately urged worry: "You guys, make a decision early, the Russians won't give us so much time.
There are so many old and weak women and children in Ganisburg, and it is almost impossible to sign a normal employment contract. It's not easy to convince Austrian companies to hire them. "
After listening to James' words, everyone's face changed greatly. Under normal circumstances, young people are employed by colonial companies, and it is difficult for old and weak women and children to find work.
It is not so simple to want to leave through labor employment channels now.
Father Prague asked: "Mr. James, you must have a solution to this problem, right?"
James hesitated slightly and said, "If the number is small, I can still ask a friend for help.
At present, at least tens of thousands of people need to be transferred throughout Gunisburg, and most of them are still old and weak. Under normal circumstances, no colonial company would hire them.
The only way is to pay the freight by ourselves. I'm contacting friends for help. These companies look at the sentiments of their fellow citizens and should issue a false employment contract. "
This is the cleverness of James. The originally hesitant people have now involuntarily changed their positions and considered how to organize everyone to leave.
Bishop Bernard frowned and said, "This is very troublesome. There are too many people to leave in Gunisburg. Most of the people can't afford the toll, and our church can't afford this money.
What's more, when it comes to the African continent, without a job, everyone's life is also a problem. "
Tens of thousands of people need to leave, and the cost of travel and settlement is not a small figure.
If the church had raised the funds before the war, it would not be possible for the banks to be ransacked by the Russians, and the church would only have the property in the church.
The most important thing in religion is belief, as long as a believer can earn it sooner or later. With no money in his pocket, Bernard had to give up this opportunity to strengthen his faith.
James thought for a while and said, "The travel expenses can only be borrowed first. When we get to the place, we can turn to the local church, and we can also turn to the German National Rehabilitation Association.
Although there are many old and weak women and children, everyone is not unable to work. No matter how bad it is, you can wash and cook, or help the planters pick cotton.
I still have a lot of friends over there who can provide some jobs. If there are special circumstances and you really cannot find a job, we will apply for colonial government relief! "
In the crisis, Fang showed the truth. Although James wanted to make money, he really wanted to help his fellow citizens when he returned to Gnisburg.
Rather than staying here for the night, it is better to go to Austrian Africa and start a new life.
Like most people, James is desperate for the Berlin government and he doesn't think the Kingdom of Prussia will win the war.
The current digging operation is a sacred rescue operation in James's opinion, helping fellow people escape the Russian claws.
East Prussia has long been assimilated, and many Poles and Lithuanians have become Germans. The official German documents of the Berlin government have exceeded seven levels.
The rest have long been used to speaking German and writing German, and their living habits are similar to those of Germans. In Austrian Africa, posing as a German, you just need to apply for assistance, and no one will look at it boringly.
Franz was very fond of the population and naturally affected the officials below. Perhaps in the eyes of capitalists, old, weak women and children have little value, but in the eyes of government officials, they are also a population.
Keeping the old and the weak can buy people's hearts, and the Vienna government does not lack this food; let alone women and children, women are also labor, and children can grow up, which is valuable.
Young and young means good management, and the best migrants are the migrants who have a family. Once settled locally, these people can't go.
Borrowing tolls is nothing more than setting a threshold for leaving to extend their time working in the colonies.
After three or five years, no matter whether the Russians occupied East Prussia or the Prussian kingdom regained their homeland, there will be new residents in these places, and when the immigrants want to go back, it will be difficult to survive.
The only way to live is for everyone to refuse. The members of the church are not all bad guys. The black sheep are only a few. Ordinary people are a little bit greedy for money, and their private life is unchecked.
In the face of tens of thousands of lives, everyone still knows how to choose.
This is a characteristic of European society, and want to organize people to leave, as long as two groups have such influence: aristocracy and church.
Fudge Juncker nobles left, and James didn't think he had the ability. The Kingdom of Prussia can treat them, Austria cannot afford them.
So from the beginning, the local nobles were put under house arrest. The outside world believed that the Russian writings actually happened after James bribed Russian officers.
The tsarist government has no shortage of population, and it is entirely self-helping to keep a group of guerrillas at any time. It is better to use waste for sale to Austria.
With the intentional cooperation of the Russians, the immigration activities organized by James were very smooth. The Russian army seemed to see nothing and let them organize in series.
Standing at Colonel Nicholas in Gnisburg, looking at the employment contract submitted by James, he was too lazy to look at the dense name on it and tossed it aside.
"Mr. James, in accordance with the laws of the Russian Empire, you need to pay an employment tax of 5 rubles for each worker employed, which is a total of 448,000 rubles."
James was startled, with a smile still on his face, saying, "Lord Lieutenant Colonel, we have only employed 12,000 people, and the rest are accompanying family members."
Colonel Nicholas sneered and said, "It's a pity that this is a time of war. The situation is a bit special. We have to check the spies, these families cannot leave for the time being."
Responding James, immediately handed a check of 5000 Aegis. This is a check issued by Royal Bank that can be cashed in major European cities.
After looking at the numbers and carefully discriminating between the true and the false, Colonel Nicholas' face slowly eased, and he closed it up casually.
The tax ticket was torn off, and a 60,000 ruble tax ticket was reissued and handed to James.
This is the benefit of the war. All the things that Guinnessburg can grab are almost robbed. There is no tax at all. Naturally, the Tsar government will not send tax officials.
Colonel Nicholas made it difficult for James, naturally to make a fortune. Don't look at James organizing so many immigrants, but there are still 6,000 young people.
Fill in the employment of 12,000 people, mainly because you must ensure that each household employs one person before they can legally take their families away. In order not to save money, James dare not save this money.
After getting the batch, James was relieved. The Austrian Ministry of Foreign Affairs also has an office in East Prussia. With this legal procedure, he can let the Ministry of Foreign Affairs intervene.
After sending James away, a young officer asked in doubt: "Uncle, it's not a good idea to blackmail them, why should you let him go?"
Tax collection, have you seen any tax collection by the military? Moreover, this is a newly occupied area and there is no concept of tax at all.
From beginning to end, Colonel Nicholas and others wanted to extort money before taking advantage of the temporary tax bureau.
"Boris, you are still too tender. If I really want to blackmail, I guess I won't get the last ruble, and I will go home in advance to retire. Do you remember the telegram I received last night?"
Boris responded and said, "Do you mean, the Austrian Foreign Ministry has stepped in?"
Colonel Nicholas nodded. The money from the population transaction was received by the St. Petersburg government long ago and included in the Russian-Olympic loan.
Now comes the private businessman James, who dare to blackmail, if the Austrian Foreign Ministry is changed, the situation will be different.
Most of the Russian logistics supplies were provided by Austria. If the dispute between the two countries is provoked at this time and the war is affected, they will definitely not have good fruit.
The Tsarist government did corrupt, but that did not mean that Alexander II wanted to see the government corrupt. If they jumped out at this time, they might be killed.
Gönigsberg is just an index. The entire East Prussian area is full of immigrant merchants, and everyone is working to evacuate East Prussia.
No, it should be said that everyone is working hard to rescue fellow citizens. The rescue of his compatriots from the magic of the Russians was the official answer given by Austria.
Believe it or not, participants believe it anyway. The East Prussians who chose to leave also believed.
This is the cooperation of the Russian army. Their completely pure performance has scared the local people.
No one thinks about the days when it is impossible to recruit, and recruiting Zhuang Ding Shao to fight with their own country makes them emotionally unacceptable.
