Chapter 606: bitter


It was another year of Christmas. Because of the return of Jerusalem, this year's Christmas was extraordinarily lively, and the whole of Austria was in laughter.
Businessmen also took the opportunity to launch activities, all streets are full of discount promotions. In order to attract popularity, some shops also distributed candy and sunflower seeds for free.
Franz, standing on the top of the building, picked up the telescope, and looked at the bustling street, revealing a fascination.
The joy of ordinary people shopping, Franz has no chance to feel. The life of ordinary people is not suitable for the emperor, this is the price of standing high.
Running secretly out is irresponsible performance. The emperor represents not only individuals, but also this country.
In the unlikely event of an accident, Austria will be upset soon. Don't look at the fact that Austria now seems very stable. Franz is very aware that there are still many hidden dangers in this empire, but it is covered up by the surface prosperity.
It is not terrible to have hidden dangers in a country, and the solution is enough; what is terrible is that if you know that there are hidden dangers and you don't even see you running to death, the consequences will be serious.
Franz knows that there are many people who are dissatisfied with the government in China. The losers in the struggle for rights and the interests of the reforms are damaged ...
There was resentment in these people, and he was totally understandable. Understand and understand, it should be suppressed.
Even if no matter how dissatisfied, since these people have not rebelled, time can dilute everything, and Franz has not killed all.
There is a prerequisite for this, and that is not to provide them with opportunities. The rest only needs to boil time, relying on chai oil and salt to slowly kill the fighting spirit.
Just like the Hungarian independent organization at that time, when everyone experienced the maturity of the society, the revolutionary who was originally was defeated by reality.
Deep in his heart, Franz has been reminding himself not to wave, not to wave, and after ten or twenty years, he has cultivated his son and passed down the throne, and he is free.
"What's so beautiful, you have to come here on such a cold day?"
A familiar reputation came, and Franz put down the telescope in his hand, looked back at the person, and smiled: "It's not Christmas, and I'll see how folk festivals are."
Seemingly easy to answer, it is full of helplessness. People always miss after they have lost it.
Queen Helen took the telescope from Franz and looked in the direction he had looked before, then frowned.
"Well, there are a lot of people on the street, but it's just too ugly to make Santa Claus. There is no art at all."
Franz couldn't help grinning. The "artwork taste" is so high that his emperor knows nothing about it, let alone ordinary people who run around every day for chai oil and salt?
The laughter angered Queen Helen and gave Franz a stern look: "You are laughing at me, aren't you?"
Although the question was bland, the eyes had already told Franz: You had better give a reasonable explanation, otherwise you wouldn't think about Christmas this year.
As soon as he had a clever idea, Franz thought of a reason: "No, just thinking of Santa Claus outside is a bit funny.
If you look closely, you may have short arms and short legs. If Santa Claus looks like this and wishes to send blessings everywhere, it will be too embarrassing for his elderly. "
Seeing Queen Helen continue to look through the telescope, Franz hurriedly shifted the topic and said, "Yes, what are you doing up here? Don't tell me it's free. I remember you are busy every Christmas."
This is true, the Royal Christmas also has to celebrate activities, the Queen is responsible for these things. Including preparing Christmas gifts for relatives and friends, and inviting guests to a banquet, it is also the Queen's job.
What seemed to be remembered, Queen Helen's face changed: "Oops, I still have a lot of work to do. You take your time and watch, I'll go first."
After that, he handed the telescope to Franz, turned and was about to leave, and Queen Helen added: "Frederick is almost 20 years old, and you father do not care about his life-long affairs.
Don't forget, we have many sons, and there are limited princesses of the same age in Europe. If you don't set it in advance, you will be worried later! "
After this episode, Franz did not continue to watch the lively desire. He didn't really pay attention, and there were more boys and girls in the European royal family.
This is a sequela of the butterfly effect. The birth rate of males in the Habsburg family is somewhat high, especially Franz has four sons, which directly broke the male-female balance in the European royal family.
This problem was soon forgotten by Franz.
Except for the eldest son's consideration of political needs, the other son must have a personal account, and the other sons are not suitable. They can marry low or wait for a few years.
In Franz's view, this is not at all. As long as the standard of birth is reduced by one grade, candidates can increase at least two digits.
...
God seemed to want to add a festive mood, night fell, and snowflakes came quietly.
The cold wind did not dispel the festive atmosphere. Every door was hung with garlands and snowmen, and there was a Christmas tree in the house.
After a busy day, Rennes returned to his cubicle, picked up the prepared materials, and started making the Christmas tree.
It's too late to start preparing now, but who makes Rennes poor?
Rennes is not a native. This summer, he came to Vienna to work hard. He didn't have much savings in his pocket. He rented this small bedroom less than ten square meters.
There is no way, although Vienna claims to be the city with the highest per capita income in the world. But the problem lies in the per capita. As the lowest level of society, Rennes is undoubtedly the object of average.
Working hard in Vienna, in addition to the high-income fields of finance, scientific research, education, health care, there are also poor people in the service industry.
According to the law, Christmas must be closed, with the exception of the service industry. If the merchants are not open at Christmas, how can everyone spend the holidays?
In terms of overtime pay, Rennes decisively chose to work overtime. He knows that this holiday season, even the most stupid boss, will give overtime employees a Christmas gift.
Ren was lucky, and the grocery store owner was a devout religious believer. When Jerusalem returned this year, in a good mood, he was given a bag of flour, packed in fifty pounds.
This is the best Christmas gift he has ever grown up. With this sack of flour, the rations for next month have fallen, far more practical than candy seeds.
With a good mood, Rennes completed the Christmas tree in the shortest time. Ugliness is a little ugly, but it doesn't hinder his pursuit of a better life.
The choir in the church has gone from house to house to sing the Christmas carols in unison, and Rennes is very excited.
He had never experienced this treatment. Although his hometown also had a church, only one priest, the choir, was only available in the cathedral.
After watching the choir leave, Rain fell silent. Working alone in a strange city, without relatives and friends, he didn't know how to spend the next time.
Looking at the prepared Christmas present, Ren smiled bitterly. City is different from hometown, everyone is very careful, many people put a layer of camouflage on themselves.
When he first moved in, Rennes tried to reach out to his neighbors. However, the tenants living here are the lowest level of society. They have to run for their livelihood every day. They have no energy to receive more people and things.
It was polite to say that the tone of rejecting people thousands of miles away still made Rennes give up his intention to make further friends, and he didn't have time to make friends.
Vienna is a city that never sleeps, so the staff in the service industry are very fortunate. Although the Austrian Labor Protection Act provides for an eight-hour work day, this is only theoretical.
An 8-hour salary may survive in Vienna, but you still have to work overtime to save money!
Like most service industries, Rennes' grocery store is also a two-shift work system, except that it closes on Christmas evenings and is open 24 hours a day.
Together with the last shift of each day, the busy time is up to 14 hours a day. These fourteen hours are an ideal number, and the grocery store replenishes every three days.
In this case, the boss will not hire additional people, they must have to work 3 to 5 hours. In terms of overtime pay, Rennes decisively chose to increase.
Take two days off every month, don't even think about it, get ready for sleep! This is an ordinary waiter, everyday life in Vienna.
Rennes has not complained, and the situation in most factories will be even worse. Maybe working hours may not be so long, but the working environment is completely incomparable.
There is also hope here that you can gain a lot of insights by contacting different people and things every day. If you pay attention to observation, you can also learn a lot.
If you enter the factory, then learn the technology quickly! If this hurdle cannot be overcome, that life will be like that.
Reluctant to keep the tears from falling, Ren took out half of the roasted goose bought on the road, heated it by the stove, and turned the roasted potatoes, which was his extravagant Christmas dinner.
Late at night, the bell of Christmas rang.
