Chapter 59: Russian Federation of Immigrants

　　Paul Shuvalov's face sank slightly. Of course he knew what was going on. The contradiction between the nobility and the common people, the land annexation, the peasants went bankrupt, and he wanted to go out and seek a living.
　　 But he can't say that. Isn't this embarrassing his own country? Do you feel black on your own face? Although it was originally black, Russia also wants face!
　　 smiled in response, and said arrogantly: "Your Excellency does not know that the population of the Russian Empire is now more than 120 million. A small amount of population movement is normal!"
The meaning of 　　 is, don’t make a fuss, it’s just tens of thousands of people, and it’s not worth mentioning to the Russian Empire. We are not the same as you in Bulgaria. They are all minor problems.
　　 Ferdinand smiled, expressing understanding. I thought to myself, this is not a bit! From 1891 to 1901, in a short period of ten years, the number of people who emigrated from Russia and left Europe reached more than 900,000.
　　 Ferdinand was drooling when he looked at it. This is just a count, no record, and half-way death. I don’t know how many!
　　The most important thing is that the Russians and Bulgarians have similar language and culture, and they can basically communicate daily, religious beliefs and folk customs have too much in common, so it is easy to integrate!
　　 "Earl Paul, you know that Bulgaria lacks a population, and your country is rich in human resources. In this regard, we can cooperate with each other!" Ferdinand said with difficulty.
　　Paul Shuvalov understood what Ferdinand meant, but he didn't refuse it. It seemed to him that this was just a trivial matter, and it was not worth mentioning a few untouchables.
But in the habit of being a diplomat, he still paused for a while, so he said with difficulty: "Your Excellency meant that he wanted to fight for the idea of ​​emigration, but they all left by themselves. Our Russian Empire advocates freedom and the government It's not easy to force them!"
Ferdinand knew that it was done for nothing more than benefit, and said with a smile: "Of course I know that your country is a model of freedom and democracy, and you definitely can't use coercion. As long as your government gives a little guidance, it will be fine. Anyway, they will have to. Leaving, where to go is not! Bulgaria can also provide them with a travel fee, and Bulgaria is close to home, so it is convenient to go home and visit relatives at ordinary times!"
　　Paul Shuvalov weighed it up and thought it was almost the same, so let's close it when you see it! The travel expenses provided by Bulgaria can certainly not be issued to immigrants.
　　 As for how to use it, do you still have to think about it? Of course, it is the expense of the nobility and bureaucracy. This time it is estimated that many people want to get their favor!
　　 "Well! Honorable Grand Duke, as you wish! For the friendship between Russia and Bulgaria, the Russian Empire is willing to facilitate your country on immigration issues!"
　　Ferdinandre restrained himself from excitement, pretending to be indifferent and said: "Earl Paul, on behalf of Bulgaria, thank you for your efforts for the friendship between the two countries, and the people of the two countries will remember what you did!"
　　 will remember that you worked hard, and then Stalin was so angry that he scolded his mother. The Soviet government directly listed Paul Shuvalov as the biggest traitor. He created a powerful Bulgaria and completely blocked the Soviet way into the Mediterranean.
　　 I don’t know if Paul Shuvalov can be happy with the news.

　　 On July 18, 1891, Ferdinand and Count Paul Shuvalov signed the "Agreement on Matters Related to Immigration from Russia to Bulgaria" at the Vienna Palace, known as the "Russian-Bulgarian Immigration Alliance."
　　The main content of the treaty, 1. The immigration activities between the Russian Empire and Bulgaria, all adhering to the voluntary principle are not restricted;
　　2. The Russian government provides necessary assistance for immigrants to Bulgaria. Bulgaria pays the Russian government 10 rubles for each young and strong immigrant and 5 rubles for the elderly and children. Appendix: Immigrants are civilians with no criminal record, family immigrants.
　　 (Remarks: no detailed information, selected currency value in 1897, 1 ruble ≈ 7.774 grams of gold)
　　 The signing of the "Agreement on Matters Related to Immigration from Russia to Bulgaria" was considered by later generations to be the establishment of the Russia-Province Alliance. After the signing of the treaty, relations between the two countries have rapidly warmed up, non-governmental exchanges, commercial trade, and political cooperation have been strengthened.
　　 1891 is considered by historians to be the year of transition for Bulgaria, and some people call it the "year of rise".
　　 After the establishment of the Russian-Province Immigration Alliance, a large number of bankrupt farmers in Russia were forced to immigrate to Bulgaria, laying the foundation for the development of Bulgaria.
　　 Since then, 100,000 people from the Russian Empire have flowed into Bulgaria every year. Naturally, it was accompanied by winds. The later Russian director Stanislavsky also arranged a film "The History of the Blood and Tears of Russian Immigrants" to expose the cruel rule of Tsarist Russia.
　　Of course, Bulgaria’s official propaganda is different. A lot of information has been produced to prove that the happy life of Russian immigrants in Bulgaria, as for the blood and tears, only exists in Russia.
　　 Later Ferdinand was considered by historians as "the greatest monarch in the modern world, UU reading www.uukanshu.com he successfully completed national integration and created a powerful Bulgaria!"
　　 "The sky is high and the birds fly, the sea is wide and the fish leap"!
　　 This ancient poem is adapted to express Ferdinand’s current mood very appropriately. He didn't expect things to go so smoothly, to achieve the goal easily, and there are still many hole cards that have not come and played.
　　The authorities are fans, now everyone knows the importance of population to a country. But in the 19th century, the most indispensable thing in the Russian Empire was people.
　　Is it possible for Bulgaria to become stronger? The Russians will definitely say: It depends on whom you compare! It is very possible to compare with the Balkan countries; to compare with the Russian Empire, ha ha!
　　Except for Ferdinand, who can be sure that World War I will break out, and it will be so tragic, that the Russian Empire will collapse.
　　 From the perspective of the people at the time, Bulgaria introduced a large number of Russian immigrants and had tied itself to the chariot of the Russian Empire.
　　 The more Russians in the country, the more pro-Russian faction will grow. Maybe in the future, Bulgaria can be annexed bloodlessly, no matter how hard it looks.
　　 After this treaty was passed to St. Petersburg, the Russian nobles still sang hymns and made a fortune. Alexander III was getting old and his energy was not as good as he was in the past, and he was approved by the wise Shenwu under the aristocracy's high praise.
　　 Oh, there are some ruthless people, and then consider whether to annex some more land, and which untouchables can be sold, not immigrants! It's really killing two birds with one stone. If you seize the land, you can make another money.
　　It is conceivable that as long as Bulgaria can afford it, they can probably get it. The popularity of mechanization has greatly reduced the demand for farmers.
