Chapter 20: plot


The failure of the strikes has shaken the prestige of the bourgeois leader, Mr. Veriz. Many people are skeptical that he can lead everyone to persuade the government to make concessions.
On the contrary, the bourgeois revolutionary party has become active again, and some capitalists have changed their positions and secretly linked up with the revolutionary party in an attempt to overthrow the Vienna government and establish a bourgeois regime.
Of course, if we want to return to the past, let them raise the banner to rebel, that is absolutely impossible. Even if it is a revolution, it can only be done by others. They all have a wealth of wealth.
Everyone is a wise man. The weakness of the Austrian Empire has not yet been exposed. At this time, rebellion can easily become a martyr.
Most capitalists have little confidence in the Revolutionary Party, and they are pinned on fighting by nonviolent means to force the government to make concessions.
At the manor outside Vienna, a banquet is being held, and as the host, Mr. Veriz is giving a passionate speech.
That's right, this is the banquet movement transmitted from France, but only to Austria, it seems to be somewhat unsuccessful. Except for the capitalists, only a few scholars who have been fooled by liberalism participate.
"Gentlemen, we must unite. The last time we failed, it was because everyone didn't make progress together, they were defeated one by one by the enemy!
As long as we unite and fight, the enemy will eventually be defeated by us, and victory will ultimately belong to us.
No revolution, no bloodshed, it's not difficult to defeat the enemy in our best area with what we do best!
as long as……"
Not everyone in Veriz's speech was satisfied, at least the revolutionaries who came to the party were very dissatisfied.
"Mr. Veris, your so-called bloodless struggle can really make the enemy concede? Wake up, the decaying Vienna government will not hear the voice of the people, and true freedom can only be achieved by revolution ..."
Waiting for him to finish, Veriz growled angrily: "Whoever put him in, throw this to me, he wants to kill everyone!"
Nima, so loudly shouting revolution, do you think the secret police of the Vienna government eat shit?
Not only was Veris angry, but many capitalists who came to the party were also angry. Even if it is a revolution, you have to say it privately, we can give you support in secret. If you say so with great fanfare, what do you want everyone to do?
Support the revolution? It is estimated that it will take a long time to go to jail. There are so many people coming to the banquet this time. Who knows if there are any traitors?
Opposition must be opposed. When it comes to their own security, the capitalists are very cautious, and they have rebuked the Revolutionary Party as if they were all models of loyalty and patriotism.
Vienna is not Paris, everyone's revolutionary enthusiasm is not so high, and the Vienna government is not as unpopular as the July dynasty, and not everyone wants to rebel.
Agitated by the revolutionaries, this speech naturally ended hastily, and then turned into a secret meeting.
The lethality of the Labor Protection Law is still very great. Even these servants who hold banquets are one of the beneficiaries. If any one of them gets hot, they will be sold. Everyone is very careful.
"Mr. Veriz, can we really push the prices to make the government concede? We need to know that the energy of the nobles is not small. If they try to block us, we will steal the chickens and eat rice!" Big capitalist Ham questioned
The two are business competitors, because everyone sits together because of common interests, but there is no way to eliminate the conflict between them.
Veriz explained: "It is because of the nobles that we can finally win. Do n’t forget that our prime minister is an abolition of serfdom. The nobles do not want to keep him going, are they not afraid that he will pass like this time, Is legislation enforced? "
Moderate capitalist Field spoke in consonance: "Mr. Veriz is right, Metternich, the old immortal bastard, has offended many people over the years and wants more people to step down.
Once the old fox is gone, the new Prime Minister will not have his prestige. If you don't compromise with us, don't want to stabilize the situation! "
Field and Veriz have similar political ideas. They both oppose violent revolutions and stand for bloodless rights and interests.
This is determined by their interests. As one of Austria's best capitalists, they have a large number of industries.
Once the revolution has occurred, there will be a new shuffle of interests. In the event of failure, it will cost nothing.
Verris said again, "Mr. Ham, the aristocrats are not good. We drive up prices and we can let them join in. Everyone can make money together. For their own benefit, they will not stop us. .
No need, as long as one-fifth of the aristocrats are on our side, Metternich can do nothing. This time our slogan is to let Metternich step down!
The question of repealing labor protection laws, implementing constitutional government, and popular elections can be postponed before the next government. "
Apparently failed once, and Veriz became more cautious.
The "Labour Protection Law" was used by conservative aristocrats to crack down on the bourgeoisie, and obviously will not make concessions easily.
Constitutionalism and popular elections, let alone let alone this slogan, it will be fully attacked by the aristocracy.
On the contrary, it is only targeted at Prime Minister Metternich, and it is easier to succeed. After all, many of the nobles are against him.
Ham thought for a while and said, "Then I will trust you again, but what do you think of the Revolutionary Party that appears today? Everyone understands people, so don't hide them!"
Field sneered and said, "Do you still need to say this? Of course, you have to draw a line. The French Revolution, you don't know, who wants to experience it once?"
Ham sarcastically said, "Mr. Field, let's forget this grandiose statement!
I know you have to contact them in private. I mean, have you ever thought about increasing your support for them?
Do n’t ask them to be successful, as long as they restrain a part of the government ’s energy? "
Verris hurriedly said, "Mr. Ham, this joke is still there. I never knew any revolutionary party!"
Unlike the timid Ham, Veriz is old, and he has no desire to take any more risks. He secretly provided funds for the activities of the Revolutionary Party. This is the limit he can do.
