Chapter 445: Dream of Power

The Austrian delegation could not get everything they wanted. The Japanese delegation left after some inspections, and a Japanese embassy was added in Vienna.
I have to admire the vision of the Japanese. Despite the clanging of the poor, gnashing teeth has also set up embassies in several major European countries.
Consumption in Vienna is not low, especially compared to Japan, where house prices are even worse. No one is speculating, it is the result of the spontaneous regulation of the market.
As the largest land supplier in Vienna, it can also be regarded as the sole supplier. Franz responsibly said that there is no money to buy a house in Austria.
House prices in Vienna have risen, and the words "Sleepless City" are very creditable. In this name, people who buy a house in Vienna are happy.
There are too many people buying houses, the market is in short supply, and prices naturally go up. Vienna is now no less than 800 Aegis, which has doubled directly compared to the same period last year.
Ordinary houses are still pretty good. In fact, the fastest growth is still luxury houses.
Especially in the aristocratic areas, the price of most courtyards has increased seven or eight times, and the lowest price has to be Aegis. Don't be too expensive, no money can be bought without aristocratic status.
In order to save money, the Japanese did not stay in the embassy district in Vienna, but chose to buy a few houses for reconstruction two kilometers away.
This is the approach of the wise, and changing places has saved at least fifty-six thousand and two hundred thousand silver.
Moreover, it is good to pretend to be poor. It can reduce the peeping of the powers. I do n’t have enough strength, but I have to swell my face and fill myself with fat.
As for the face, this thing has never been seen before in Japan. Which European country will look down on them in this era?
That being the case, why hold on. From the beginning, the Japanese have prepared for the low level, which has been done for decades.
This is why Japan was able to complete the Meiji Restoration without being interfered by the powers. Their performance is so good that no one thinks they are a threat.
When Franz returned to Vienna, the Japanese delegation had already left. Such trivial matters are not worthy of his attention, and the left-behind officials just mentioned them casually when reporting on their work.
Otherwise, knowing that Ito Hirofumi and others are coming, Franz will have to worry about whether to wipe them out. It had nothing to do with his interests, and the memories left over from previous lives were enough to make him make this decision.
Since you don't know, don't worry about it. Ito Bowen and others are investigating the Kingdom of Prussia. I'm afraid they can't even dream about it, and they almost lost their lives.
Although they are diplomatic missions, they are protected by all countries. However, there are many maritime storms and pirates, and too many accidents can occur.
Now they are not British allies. Before the Meiji Restoration, they did not even have the qualification to become pawns. Even if an accident happened, no one would care.
Without Franz's intervention, history once again returned to its origin. The Japanese government learned the Navy from the British and the Army from Prussia, and "monarchism" was brought back.
As far as France and Austria cannot learn, the maritime nations naturally cannot learn from the mainland nations. France and Austria were originally European giants, but they just caught a cold halfway through. It's as simple as getting sick now.
As a reel, the Prussian kingdom's counterattack against the Russian Empire was a Japanese idol. It was too inspirational to not learn.
Learning from Britain was forced out. How did the maritime nations mix without the navy? The 19th century was the era of sea power, and all the great powers were charging towards the ocean.
These episodes, Franz is ignorant. Now he is still having headaches for the newly recovered areas of General Saxony and Silesia, this time by the Prussians.
The land was successfully delivered, but the population above was gone. What was originally intended to limit the development of the Kingdom of Prussia by reducing the number of main ethnic groups is now only half successful.
The total population of the Kingdom of Prussia has exceeded the 20 million mark. The main ethnic group plus a population that has been Germanized has approximately 13.5 million. This population ratio is sufficient to ensure the stability of the country.
Anyway, anyway, I also took time out of East Prussia. Silesia is not empty, and about 60,000 to 70,000 people remain.
This is also the result of the active intervention of the Vienna government, which has kept this part of the population. It is not the Berlin government that is willing to give up, but mainly these people are not willing to move.
The plot of the homeland is always there. No matter how the Prussian government promises, these people will not move.
Following the Habsburg dynasty, everyone had no psychological obstacles. They did not want to move. They did not move. With the intervention of Austria, the Berlin government could not use strong power and could only let it.
Although the land was transferred to Austria, the property on the land was still owned by the owner. This is irrelevant. Franz is not in a hurry, the main talents should be called.
Silesia is not developed there, Austria is still Austria. But the owner of the property is different. If Silesia is not developed, many of their properties will become worthless.
For example: if the land is not cultivated by people, the grass will soon fly, but the tax will still have to be paid.
For another example: if the real estate in the shops and factories cannot be operated normally, the landlord will naturally not get any income.
What is needed now is to calm them down before they know how to cooperate in the future. Unless the Berlin government buys these industries and operates behind the scenes, these people will not be able to sustain them for a few days.
The biggest headache for Franz was that the Saxony government proposed to the central government every day that the new Holy Roman Empire be sanctioned against the Kingdom of Prussia.
You know, they have paid a lot of money to recover the general Saxony area. Now there are only tens of thousands of residents above. To develop this area requires a lot of investment and immigration.
Put aside, the Kingdom of Saxony naturally couldn't bear it. If it wasn't for the great difference in force between the two sides, Franz suspected that they were all reckless.
Without resorting to violence, the Kingdom of Saxony revenge in its own way, for example: closed the trade channel between the two countries and banned any Prussian goods from selling in the Saxony region.
This is not enough, they want the new Holy Roman Empire to sanction Prussia together. Knowing that this is a lose-lose play, the Saxony people are fearless and want to bet on this tone.
Franz naturally has a headache. Such sanctions have no meaning. Even if the New Holy Roman Empire blocked Prussia, people could obtain it from Britain and France.
Moreover, after the outbreak of the economic crisis, tariffs between countries are about to block import and export trade. The total foreign trade between the Austria and Austria is less than 10 million Aegis, less than one-third before the economic crisis.
Making policies ca n’t be willful, and just chaos in order to be angry. What about companies with damaged interests? If this leads to an increase in the number of unemployed people, social conflicts will worsen even more.
What's urgent to get revenge on Prussia, there are opportunities in the future. Blindly, it is worth the trouble to engage in civil relations.
There was no way. The Saxony kingdom would go with them if they wanted to do it. This was their right, and Franz didn't bother to interfere.
Every family has a hard-to-read scripture. Just compare Franz's mindset. The British are still in trouble in Ireland and Scotland, and the French are asking for trouble by themselves. By contrast, Austria is good.
The nations underneath are fairly peaceful, at least no one is clamoring for independence. The outbreak of the Saxony kingdom is understandable.
The newly recovered General Saxony area accounted for more than four floors of their total area. There were originally a million people, but there are now tens of thousands.
In any country, a population of 30 to 40 percent is suddenly absent, and it is about to explode. Saxony was restrained, and he was just clamoring for economic sanctions against Prussia.
...
After soothing his brother, Franz set his sights on the Balkans. Do not think about industry. The French only operate here as a colony. Naturally, there is no such thing as grand.
The industries left over from the Ottoman Empire, first the Near East War, and encountered French colonial rule, these industries were long gone.
In a way, this is also a good thing. Obviously, simple agriculture is easier to rule, and messy ideas are hard to spread in conservative rural areas.
Coupled with the French credit, many diehards were almost exiled. Although the French buried a lot of hidden dangers when they left, none of these opportunities came into play.
Franz's inspections in the Balkans are not just for fun, but for making excuses for major local surgery.
The emperor inspected the place himself, and it was necessary to strengthen security protection. It was natural for the local government to check hidden safety hazards, and this investigation problem was exposed.
According to Austrian law, there are too many offenders, regardless of the size of the offense, which constitutes a crime and must be held accountable.
Why did it take so long to get the French Balkans to get started, wasn't it for them to commit crimes?
The legal differences between French colonial rule and Austria's direct rule are vastly different. There are many things that can be done in the French colonies, and in Austria it is illegal.
Violations must be investigated, so anyone who is caught must face severe punishment by the law. The law does not blame the public. There is no such thing as a village. If a person commits a crime, they will be investigated in a village.
The nails left by the French were undoubtedly pulled out. The local ruling class has basically changed again.
No one can say anything when acting according to law. No matter how many implicates are involved, the dignity of the law must be maintained, and it is definitely not to suppress dissidents.
With the exception of political prisoners who spread illegal ideas for life, the rest are dealt with based on the size of the crime. This time there was no direct exile, but staying to work to improve traffic in the Balkans.
Franz was very hesitant to develop the newly acquired French Balkans. Austria has limited energy, and it always feels a little loss to invest resources in the Balkans.
The newly acquired territory of the French Balkan Peninsula is not small, including later generations Albania, Kosovo, Macedonia, half Greece, half Istanbul.
But the population is less than three million, and the young labor force is even smaller. This is the pot of the French. The Paris government realized early on that the French Balkans were connected to the Russian and Austrian territories.
Naturally, as a colony, don't think of any good treatment. In order to develop the African continent, the French have not emigrated from the Balkans. Compared to indigenous peoples in Africa, the Balkans are still a good workforce.
The Suez Canal was successfully opened, and the Balkans also contributed. This is also the main reason for the lack of labor in the Balkans.
Due to Franz's butterfly effect, the amount of engineering increased, and the demand for labor naturally increased. Egypt is just a small country with a population of 3.5 million. It simply cannot provide enough labor.
In the later period, the huge number of casualties exceeded the limit that Egypt could bear, and France and Austria had to find a way out of the colonies.
Austrian Africa contributed 400,000 laborers, and the Balkans also contributed 200,000 laborers, and major engineering casualties were inevitable.
Moreover, the completion of the project does not mean that they can go home. Especially after the French sold the Balkans to Austria, naturally no more ships were sent back, and Austria did not send ships to pick them up in time.
Immediately after the outbreak of the French-Egyptian war, living labor remained stranded in Egypt. Due to the loss of food management, the whereabouts of these workers are now unknown, and no one knows how many remain.
Austria's garrison on the Sinai Peninsula now only protects the Suez Canal. If someone comes to the side of the canal for help, a boat will be arranged to bring it back.
One after another, tens of thousands of people were sent back. Perhaps they were scared by the cruelty of the war, or they were smoothed off on the construction site. These people are quite peaceful.
Of course, life-saving graces also played a role, allowing them to identify with Austrian rule. After all, only by experiencing the cruelty of the world first-hand can we know the importance of a strong motherland.
Not having enough labor makes the cost of developing the Balkans soaring. In order to maintain long-term stability, Franz did not dare to introduce foreign population.
There is also the rise of the Russian empire in the future. If you want to enter the Mediterranean, you must win the Dardanelles.
In case the tsars meet better, Nabalkans and them in exchange for land in Ukraine, that is a big profit.
After all, the Ukraine region on the Russian-Australian border is black land, and it is a big win to take a piece. Anyway, the Russians don't pay much attention to these areas, and the possibility of flickering over is very high.
Since it is going to be used for trading, investment and development is a waste, and maintaining local stability is enough.
Of course, there is also a prerequisite for this. In the next round of the Eastern European War, Russia won the Pope and regained Ukraine occupied by Poland.
Otherwise, it would be difficult for the Tsarist government to have ambitions to enter the Mediterranean. After a social beating, it is impossible for the Russians to learn a lesson.
