The killing of the killing, the exile of the exile, the removal of the resignation, the entire Vienna government cleaned the moths and confiscated the illegal industry throughout 1887.
With the end of the major anti-corruption and black crime case, a total of 10,286 criminals were executed, 96,412 were exiled, and countless others were fined and warned.
Including 1,274 corrupt officials found within the government, 7421 actively surrendered, 76 executed criminals, 376 exiled criminals, all involved were dismissed, and 47.5 million Aegis of confiscated money were confiscated.
Frankly speaking, the amount involved is much less than Franz's estimate, and the amount per person involved is more than 5,000 Aegis. It is obvious that the pigs have not yet fattened.
No wonder everyone likes anti-Semitism. Compared with the confiscation of Jewish assets, the corruption of the bureaucrats is only in pediatrics, not at the same level.
Of course, this has something to do with the anti-corruption efforts of the Vienna government. Most people do not dare to pay bribes directly, and the threshold for transferring benefits is too high, blocking many people from getting rich.
The purchasing power of Aegis is still very strong. For the first-line public officials, the amount of bribes of thousands of yuan can not be touched at all, and their power is limited.
Even if someone gives a gift, it is usually a few Aegis, or a dozen Aegis, but at most a few dozen Aegis.
It is obviously unrealistic to have such a small amount of money, and it is necessary to go around a large circle to play the transfer of benefits.
In this way, their gray income can only come from the above sub-run. After all, they are direct operators, and if they want the transaction to proceed smoothly, they must seal it.
The money I received was not cash. Most of them were various discount cards and vouchers. Many were issued in the name of departmental benefits.
From a legal point of view, this does not constitute a crime of taking bribes, their real crimes are non-reporting and malfeasance.
This is also the reason for the surrender of officials. After all, before taking the initiative to confess, the crime of "not knowing about it" will be gone. If the "dereliction of duty" has not caused serious consequences, the expulsion of public office will be considered completed.
There are many people involved in the case, and the stolen homes are essentially the senior officials with serious problems. The 47.56 million people confiscated in this way are actually quite a lot.
The per capita income from copying the family is as high as 135,000 Aegis. If the anti-corruption case broke out a few days later, it would be a half-ton of gold per capita and a properly corrupt official.
Franz is still very satisfied with this result. Compared with the beginning of succession, "ten bureaucrats grabbed nine, and there are still cases of missing the net", but now a fundamental change has been made.
The case is over, but the subsequent impact has just begun. The most direct impact is a significant improvement in social order.
It cannot be said that the accounts are closed at night, at least the protection fees and loan sharks have disappeared without a trace, and even the street gangsters rarely appear.
The cruel reality tells the middle school teenagers that the underworld society has to pay a price, and when the boss is half a foot, he has entered the gate of hell.
This is also regarded as a large-scale legal education course. The Vienna government used the lives of tens of thousands of criminals to cast the majesty of the law, and the unhealthy trend of the society was reversed.
All of Europe was shocked by Austria's generosity, and even the anti-Semitic movement was suppressed.
The execution of tens of thousands of people at a time was enough to cause numbness in many people's scalp, and public opinion was also mixed.
Supporters believe that the Austrian government has upheld the dignity of the law and that the execution of criminals has been tried through formal judicial procedures and is worthy of learning from all over the world;
Opponents believe that the Austrian government does not respect life and does not give them a chance to reform, which is a blasphemy against human rights.
The two sides are quarreling and there is no relationship. The newspapers are fighting each other, and the offline debates and academic seminars are the battlefields of both sides.
Well, the government of Vienna still pays for public relations, or else it will fall into the disadvantages just by supporting the power of the legal system.
Affected by this, the total foreign investment into Austria in 1887 decreased by 46% compared with the previous year. On the contrary, the outflow of capital increased by 21.2%.
The main reason was that the Jewish capitalists had retreated, and others could not see them. They were still very clear to them.
The Vienna government is indeed very friendly to ordinary Jews, but behind the friendship is for national assimilation.
For their existence that hinders national integration, but you are not at all polite, especially the old friend of Earl Waiters, it is even more fierce to start.
Can be caught but not caught-catch, kill but not kill-kill, all are severely punished, no one is merciless.
This can be seen from the list of executed exiles. It is indeed handled in accordance with Austrian law. The problem is that there are too many Jews.
Capitalists who are completely safe and secure do exist, but they are very few, and most of the capitalists have more or less entered the gray area.
The investigation team obviously took special care of them, and many hidden problems were pulled out.
Knowing that they were targeted, they could do nothing. Compared with other European countries, this is still a rule.
If you do n’t want to be treated differently, it ’s very simple. Just give up your inheritance and actively integrate into it.
In fact, the Jews in Austria have long been divided, and this sudden blow only made the problem clearer.
Only a part of those who are unwilling to settle in the status quo are left. The big deal is that ordinary people are still unwilling to continue wandering. After all, they ca n’t see the way forward.

London
Prime Minister Gladstone: "What do you think of the generosity of the Austrian government this time?"
Most people only stay in the anti-corruption case itself, and experts and scholars on the market only pay attention to the legal system, but it is different in the eyes of politicians.
Foreign Minister George: "This has something to do with the national integration policy implemented by Austria, which can be traced back to 1820 at the earliest.
However, these policies were not promoted until the Franz era.
Overall, all ethnic groups in Austria are well integrated, and only Jews are in trouble.
Even if there were no anti-Semitic movements in Europe, the Vienna government will sooner or later target these Jewish capitalists who hinder national integration.
As for the anti-corruption case that broke out later, it was actually Franz ’s conspiracy. He took advantage of snobbery to clean up the bureaucracy and strengthen his control over the country. "
Those who can stand high are smart people, and the benefits of national integration can be seen at a glance.
However, knowing Guigui, everyone did not follow suit. If the national integration were to take place, the British Isles would have been iron plated.
In fact, including the Gladstone cabinet, all previous British governments tried to solve this problem, and all ended in failure.
There is no way, if they all become their own, it is not easy to exploit so much, which is equivalent to breaking the capitalist's financial path.
Chancellor of the Exchequer Xiaozhi Childers: "These are only political, I want to say economically.
I do n’t know if you noticed it. In this anti-corruption and anti-Semitic movement, the Vienna government received a lot of funds.
Although the exact amount is unknown, it must have been the most harvested by this anti-Semitic movement, and it is worth our vigilance where the money will be spent. "
This is an inevitable result. On one side is to shear wool and on the other is to kill sheep and eat meat. The income gap between the two is self-evident.
In addition to struggling for strength, international competition is also struggling for financial resources. Competitors are rich, for Britain, it is definitely not a good thing.
Hearing the bad news, Prime Minister Gladstone frowned and muttered to himself: "This is an arms race, are we coming again?"
After the anti-Semitic movement ended, Austria was not the only one with money in his pocket. To be precise, there should be money in the pockets of European governments.
Generally speaking, in this situation, everyone will spend the money. It is difficult to determine exactly where it is spent.
But what is certain is that as long as someone takes the lead in arms development, the arms race will be detonated immediately.
Lord Astley Cooper Kee: "The Prime Minister, the French government has announced a new shipbuilding plan.
According to the plan, in the next three years, the French Navy will add 3 new battleships, 7 destroyers, 4 cruisers, and 24 warships of various sizes.
According to the practice of naval shipbuilding in recent years, the Austrians and the French will maintain a considerable number of battleships.
If there is no accident, it will not take long for the Austrian Navy to announce the shipbuilding plan, and the pressure of the Royal Navy will increase greatly.
In order to protect the Royal Navy ’s superiority in sea power, the Admiralty plans to build 6 new battleships and 10 destroyers ... "
When meeting the navy minister who saw the stitches, Prime Minister Gladstone patted his head and thought to himself: he was wrong.
Before he could speak, Chancellor of the Treasury Xiao Zhi Childs pre-emptively said: "No, if the plan is followed, France and Austria will inevitably continue to increase the number of shipbuilding. By that time, an arms race cannot be avoided.
Although the government has just made a fortune, the money is used for other purposes and cannot be spent on meaningless arms races. "
Navy Secretary Astley Cooper Kee laughed: "How can it be said that it does not make sense? In the arms race, the financial resources of the two countries are consumed, and they will not be able to do anything else.
Otherwise, where do you think they will spend the money?
Austria ’s development plan for the Near East, the French ’s African development plan, and the ranch plan can all enhance their national strength.
If we do not consume their financial resources and use the arms race to bring them down, will we continue to maintain our advantage over time? "
This is a reality that has to be faced. Britain has a small local area and its own development potential is very limited.
If you want to maintain your dominant position, you must keep suppressing your competitors. Otherwise, they will be left behind sooner or later in the national development of this long-distance running sport.
This can be seen from these recent developments. First, Austria's economic aggregate exceeded Britain, and then France's economic aggregate exceeded France's.
Although it is only a local part, it has attracted the attention of the British elite and ranked the two countries as the biggest competitors.
