Vol 4 Chapter 45: ,report

In the end, Ferdinand still did not agree to the Navy Department’s shipbuilding plan, but it was not completely rejected. At least he approved the construction of an upgraded version of the coastal defense battleship and two cruisers and destroyers.
This is also determined by the geographical location of Bulgaria. After occupying Crete, Bulgaria has built an island chain defense circle.
In theory, the fleet of any country that wants to attack the Bulgarian mainland from the Aegean Sea can only go and grab the islands one by one.
Just like the Bulgarian attack on the Ottomans before, if the Ottomans hadn't given up on their own initiative, it would have been a protracted battle!
And Ferdinand knew that with the development of aircraft technology, warships could soon be threatened in coastal areas, and this situation would no longer exist!
Without air supremacy, wanting to attack from the sea of ​​Love and threaten the Bulgarian mainland is undoubtedly a foolish dream!
Crete is not a small island. Bulgaria can easily deploy hundreds of planes on it, and it can also make a lot of continuous supplements from the mainland. As long as the enemy is not stupid, it will not attack from here!
Even if it is a submarine, no other country would dare to come in except the Ottoman Empire. If you are not familiar with the islands and reefs, you might be ruined on the way. Who would go in and die?
Therefore, the future maritime crisis in Bulgaria will mainly come from the Adriatic Sea, the Otranto Strait, and the Mediterranean region. This is the main reason for the construction of coastal defense battleships.
Not to mention the role of building destroyers and cruisers, in addition to escorting battleships, it is to deal with German submarines!
The main decisive battle against the Bulgarian navy is not qualified, but it is okay to bully the submarine. This is also related to the lifeline for Bulgaria to obtain supplies from the outside world after the outbreak of the world war. If all were handed over to the British, Ferdinand would not be relieved!
Anyway, these ships are not as expensive as dreadnoughts, and will not be outdated for a long time in the future. Naturally, Ferdinand does not care about building more!
...
Knowing that Ferdinand attaches great importance to the population issue, Constantine deliberately put this issue at the forefront and said: "Your Majesty, this is the statistical data of the newly added pregnant women in the first half of the year by local governments, an increase of percent compared to the same period of the previous year. Eighteen, this is still due to the too short implementation of family planning, and it is expected that the growth rate in the second half of the year will be even greater!"
Ferdinand smiled slightly. Obviously he was very satisfied with this data. After all, the Family Planning Law was just implemented at the beginning of the year. In just a few months, the number of pregnant women has increased significantly. The status of the Bulgarian government in the hearts of the people is still very good!
After more than two decades of efforts by Ferdinand, the reputation of the Bulgarian government has been established. Judging from the reactions of the people, this is undoubtedly an affirmation of the work of the government. Otherwise, the first reaction of the people is not to work hard to create people, but to find out whether this is true or false!
Seeing Ferdinand’s satisfied expression, Constantine continued:
Up to now, we have established nurseries in every city. In addition to adopting children whose parents are unable to support, we can also help some special families. Take care of the children in a short period of time, charge a certain fee, and now the trial operation has begun!"
Ferdinand was taken aback for a moment. In this way, it is estimated that nursery schools will become kindergartens in the future. In Bulgarian education in this era, kindergartens have taken shape, but they have not been promoted.
"How is the operation of Tor Park and how many applications are received?" Ferdinand asked concerned.
Constantine thought for a while and said: "At present, everything is working normally. In the trial operation for more than a month, only 281 applications have been received across the country. After review, all of them meet the requirements!
By the time there are more applications for taking care of the children, there are already tens of thousands of cases, and we only charge the operating cost. We only charge 5 levs a month for the care fee. If it is a long-term stay, it will be charged extra. 2.5 Lev, these expenses also include the child's living expenses! "
Fortunately, in this era, people are simple and have not been corrupted by money. Otherwise, it is estimated that most of the children in Bulgaria will find a way to get into the nursery!
If you want to put it aside for later generations, it can be free anyway, why should you pay? Throw the child inside, can the nursery still be hungry?
There may even be many children who don’t even know who their parents are. They come here once when they are in a good mood. If they are in a bad mood, just let them go. When the children grow up, they will find them and use moral oppression to take care of their children.
But this is Bulgaria, and Ferdinand can be sure that this situation will never happen before he is alive!
Of course, the price set by the Bulgarian government is also very conscientious. According to this fee standard, except for the children's food, drink and sleep, it is estimated that the remaining money is probably enough to repair the venue.
This is still really just operating costs. In theory, if a nursery school receives the profit of fifty children, it is enough for one employee's salary. Generally speaking, it is idiotic to cover the expenses!
After all, the minimum wage for ordinary workers in Bulgaria is 75 levs, and the average daily salary is 2.5 levs. This is only two or three days' wages for ordinary workers. In Ferdinand’s view, this fee is already doing charity!
Of course, Ferdinand still supports this move by the government. The working class’s life was not easy at first. Now that people have responded to his call to work hard to have children, how can he increase their burden?
One child spends two or three days of their income, and if five or six children come down, there is no income for a laborer!
It's not that Ferdinand is not good at math. UU reading www.uukanshu.com adults also have to dress and eat themselves, all of which have to cost money! In this way, the income of a strong labor may not be enough!
If the family expenses are calculated, a couple can raise five or six children almost to the limit, but it doesn’t matter if you have a few more children. Isn’t the government rewarded?
The reward for the sixth child is 8oo Lev. If the nursery is enough for a child's living expenses for nine years, if you don't stay overnight, you can raise it to 13 or 4 years old!
Not to mention the seventh child, 16oo Lev is enough to raise a child!
No way, raising children is really cheap in this era, and the material standard of living is just like this. For ordinary people, in addition to being able to eat, any pursuit is a luxury!
Even the clothes are handed down from generation to generation. After the parents' clothes are changed to small, they are left to the children. Brothers and sisters are ready to take over.
The government pays for education again. If you can't get admitted to middle school after the age of fifteen or sixteen, you will have to work or farm land in the society of your birth!
If you are lucky enough to join the army for a few years, just in time to catch up with the battle, and you have made a battle, then you have earned it!
Ordinary people basically have no big expectations. This is why Ferdinand's Bulgaria is so aggressive!
Only war is the opportunity to change people's destiny. Otherwise, if you want to fight on your own, it depends on luck and talent. It is difficult to succeed by hard work alone.
Ferdinand said without hesitation: "Very well, as a government, we should help the people solve their difficulties as much as possible!
If we want to increase the population, we must let the people let go of their lives and solve their worries. You have done a good job in this area! "
