Chapter 30 Restoring Market Confidence?

In Bolton Manor, Vienna, a dozen well-dressed big men gathered together.Although they have tried to control as much as possible, they still can't hide the temperament of that upstart.

A gorgeous middle-aged man asked hesitantly: "Mr. Owen, can these mud legs work? Even if we get them weapons, can a group of people be like a climate?"

The atmosphere inside was a bit dull. The graceful man sitting on the throne slowly stood up, smiled slightly, and said slowly:

"Mr. Love, of course they can't do it alone! However, it is not just us who want revolution in Austria at this time!

How much did the economic crisis hurt Austria, did everyone feel it?

It can be said that Austrian capitalists on the eighth floor suffered heavy losses and hundreds of thousands of people were unemployed.

The Vienna government does not do anything. If you want to live, do you have any other options besides the revolution?"

This is the key to the problem. By this time, most of the capitalists have been forced to the corner, but many people have not realized it.

Many capitalists in Austria are now hoarding a large amount of goods. If they cannot sell in a short time, the capital chain will be broken.

The question now is to whom can the goods be sold?

Ordinary people cannot afford it. At this time, there are too few people with purchasing power in Austria.

Bankers are never good at speaking. As a vampire at the advanced stage of the bourgeoisie, they are always the ones who eat people and don't spit bones.

If the capitalists do not want to finish the game, breaking the existing order and cutting the flesh of the nobility to survive the crisis is the only option.

There are also a large number of unemployed workers facing this problem. They may not want to rebel, but they cannot cheat people.

If you are hungry, you will lose your mind. As long as someone encourages you, a revolution can erupt in minutes.

Compared with history, the social contradictions in Austria have changed during this period. It is not a revolution that was initiated by everyone who asked the government to reform unsuccessfully, but it was forced to the revolution by reality.

An old man, about fifty or sixty years old, shook his head and said, "Mr. Owen, we use the mud leg uprising. What if they want to establish a proletarian government and give us a revolution together?"

This is also a problem that all capitalists are worried about. In this era, the ideology of the proletariat has begun to sprout. Once the proletariat has established a government, it will kill them.

Owen said with a smile on his face: "This problem is very simple. Our French counterparts have helped us solve this problem. After the success of the revolution, as long as we grab the class and seize power in the first place, there will be no problem.

At present, there are nearly 120,000 workers in Vienna. Under our deliberate control, the guild organization has been divided into hundreds of large and small according to industry and factory.

As long as they are not allowed to unite, then the new government will inevitably be led by us. Would n’t you think that someone in the mud leg could organize them?"

Organize?In this era of communication, it is estimated that it is a problem for members of various trade union organizations to recognize it or not.

Most of these trade union organizations are spontaneous and do not have mandatory binding force on members. It is not yet known how many capitalist nails are buried.

Before the October Revolution in Russia, the fighting power of trade union organizations was very limited, and a large part of them were secretly controlled by capitalists.

Wanting to organize all the workers is not something that can be done overnight.As long as they preempted the establishment of the government and controlled the rights of the country, the overall situation was set.

This can be seen from the February Revolution in France. After the victory of the revolution, the capitalists robbed the class and seized power. The first time was not to investigate the troubles of the former government, but to suppress the working class who participated in the revolution together.

In the eyes of the capitalists, it has long been unknown what the morality is.

...

Late at night, the Vienna government was brightly lit, and Prime Minister Metternich was worried about the current situation. At this time, at least one interest group must make sacrifices.

Whether it is a knife to the capitalists, a knife to the nobility, or a knife to the ordinary people is a difficult multiple choice question.

Prime Minister Metternich has dominated the political situation in Austria for more than two decades, and he is inevitably bound by rules, otherwise he will not have a headache.

The Paris Revolution broke out, and Austria was also surging undercurrents. Unfortunately, the concept of Prime Minister Metternich remained ten years ago. He believed that a conservative Austria is different from an open France.

In addition to strengthening security in Italy and Galicia, he does not think that Vienna will be dangerous.In his view, even if a revolution breaks out, it will start elsewhere, such as Hungary.

"Your Excellency, from the current situation, the opposition will not make concessions this time. I am afraid they will also plan a large-scale parade!" Grand Duke Louis said with a somber face

If Prime Minister Metternich was only to step down, he would raise his hands in favor.But it was fucking nonsense to ask the Regency Committee to get out together and hand over power to the parliament after the constitutional reform.

No matter how unhappy Metternich is, at this time Grand Duke Louis must stand with him, everyone's political life is equivalent to being bound.

Prime Minister Metternich sighed and said slowly: "Yes, unless we accept their conditions in full, they will not stop. Now the enemy is still continuing to connect. I will meet tomorrow. Go to the larger parade!

Unless we start first, arrest the leader of the incident, order the garrison to enter the city, block all intersections, and prohibit them from connecting!"

He is old and lacks the courage of being young, otherwise he will not hesitate now, and has ordered the arrest.

"Then catch people first, if you let them mess up like this, I'm afraid the situation behind us, we can't control it!" Duke Louis said without hesitation

Anyway, this order is to be issued by the Prime Minister, except that it is Metternich who is in the dark, he does not need to be responsible for it.

Metter Ni said with a bitter smile: "This is only a cure for the symptoms, not a cure. If the domestic economy cannot improve, today's things will continue to happen.

Let ’s abolish serfdom. At this time, we need to create a market. Even if this market stays on paper, we must restore confidence in the market!"

Indeed, the announcement of the abolition of serfdom throughout the country at this time can restore confidence to many people. After all, they can increase their purchasing power by more than 20 million at a time, even though their purchasing power is very small.
