Holy Roman Empire

The homeland cannot be sold, and the colony is still negotiable.Don't look at the tsarist government seems to be local management, in fact, many areas are colonial in nature.

For details, please refer to the tax package system. Even after Alexander II completed the tax reform, there are still many places in the Russian Empire that continue to adopt the tax package system.

It is not that the tsarist government cannot see the harm of the tax package system, but the Russian empire is too big, and the tax revenue in many remote areas is not enough to pay tax officials.

In order not to let the bad finances go bankrupt, the tsarist government had to sell the taxing power to the capitalists.

Even in order to save costs, the administrative power in certain areas was directly given to the local nobility.

Of course, this is a special product of the war period and has a time limit.If the finances improve, the tsarist government will still recover it after the expiry.

Alexander III said casually: "Let's talk about it first, no matter what plans the Austrians have, we just need to do well ourselves.

This time, we must learn the lesson. We must explore the local resources in advance so that we can negotiate the price with the Austrians and we can no longer let them pick up the bargain."

The tsarist government has no shortage of territories, and Alexander III is a pacifist among the tsars. The desire to peep into the land is the lowest among the tsars of all dynasties.

If it were not for Austria, he would not start a Russian-Turkish war at this time.

The newly occupied area cannot create wealth in a short period of time. On the contrary, a large amount of administrative funds must be invested, and it will not be able to make ends meet for a long time in the future.

For the tsarist government with poor finances, increasing the territory now is essentially increasing the burden.

As long as the price is right, it is naturally not a problem to allocate a piece of land from the trophies to the Armenians for independent statehood.

Foreign Minister Oscar Jimenez said: "Your Majesty, there has just been news from the Embassy in Vienna.

There is a plague in Asia Minor Peninsula, which is highly infectious and is suspected of being the Black Death. Many medical experts believe that this area is no longer suitable for human survival.

In order to reduce human losses, the Vienna government launched the Emergency Hedging Act, preparing to evacuate the population in the newly occupied area.

They deliberately outsource this business, and issued high resettlement fees, according to the distance, the specific standard is 15-40 AED per person.

As long as these people are taken away from Austria, they can receive at least 15 Aegis subsidies.

If the government has financial difficulties, perhaps we can consider ... "

There are naturally epidemics, but it is not a large-scale plague, nor is it the Black Death, otherwise Austria will not be able to take action at this time.

Although the capitalists are greedy, others are more desperate.Although the profits of traffickers are high, the risks are also high.

The mortality rate of the Great Navigation was originally high. If the plague is added, it can be destroyed at any time.Even if the group is not destroyed, what is the point of collecting money?

Under the banner of resettlement, it is essentially for fame.If everyone died halfway through, it would be enough to recruit a butcher. Why not spend a fortune?

Alexander III frowned, and he rejected this business from the depths of his heart. The Russian Empire is also one of the four major powers in the world. How can it be reduced to being a human trafficker.

However, reality is cruel.Looking at the eager eyes of everyone, Alexander III knew that everyone hoped to make a subsidy.

After all, the price given by Austria is too tempting, even if the minimum standard is 15 AED per person, 1 million people are 15 million AED.

The purchasing power of Aegis is not low. At the current domestic food price in Russia, 15 Aegis can buy 3 tons of rye, or 5 tons of potatoes.

In fact, the price will be even higher. Alexander III still knows Franz's style very well. For a good reputation, the one who is absolutely willing to spend money.

Calm down, Alexander III expressed his doubts: "Do you know why the Austrians want to move these people away?"

Paying such a big price is just to make a place, and will not believe what Alexander III said.

Oscar Jimenez shook his head: "It is unclear the specific reason. There is a rumor that it seems that oil was discovered in the two river basins.

However, the persuasion is still insufficient.Although the demand for oil in Austria has grown rapidly in recent years, oil is not a precious mineral, and its annual imports are only a few hundred thousand AED.

In order to save the expenses of hundreds of thousands of Aegis, it would be inexplicable to spend tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of Aegis to migrate the population.

Moreover, oil extraction only needs to ensure the safety of the oil field, and there is no need to make a fuss.

Another statement is that the Vienna government intends to build a railway linking Baghdad in preparation for its entry into the Persian region, fearing that the Ottomans will cause damage.

Persuasion is still insufficient. As a colonial empire, Austria is not a good husband.

The Ottomans would just keep themselves safe, and if they dared to disrupt them, the Vienna government would never mind killing blood.

The war caused great casualties in the Ottoman region. After the war, there will be no tenacities. As long as some nobles are divided, the local area will still easily rule."

Although "divided nobility" is primitive, it is the most effective means.Austria, known as the conservative base, is still widely used in colonies.

After the Tsarist government reoccupied the Polish region, they all followed this policy, and in the short term, they still played a positive role.

The message "True, Fake, Fake, Fake, True" is the most confusing. Alexander III was helpless to find that he was also dizzy.

The income and the payout are obviously not directly proportional, he would rather this is a decision made by the Vienna government brain water, rather than believe these two "small news".

After being confused for a while, Alexander III said slowly: "Using our power to investigate, it is really reassuring not to understand the true purpose of the Austrians."

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Foreign Minister Oscar Jimenez replied

Chancellor of the Exchequer, Alisher Gulov, could not help saying: "Your Majesty, if the Austrians have no conspiracy, can we consider selling some of the newly occupied areas to them?"

Seeing that Alexander III did not answer immediately, Alisher Gulov continued to add: "According to the prior agreement, we can obtain half of the Asia Minor Peninsula and parts of the Greater Caucasus Mountains after the war.

Because of the war, these areas are basically deserted. In the next ten years, they will have to rely on the central government's financial allocation.

What is of value to us is that only the western plains near Constantinople can be sold in the remaining areas.

If the transaction is concluded, we can get not only a land sale income, but also a resettlement income.

Theoretically, we can obtain hundreds of millions of Aegis cash income at once.

Even if the Vienna government wants to use arrears as a deduction, we can also reduce a large amount of debt and reduce the government's financial pressure."

It is not that Alisher Gulov wants to sell land, mainly because the Ministry of Finance is really poor.If, after the outbreak of the economic crisis, Austria agreed to postpone the payment of debts, the tsarist government is now bankrupt.

Under this background, add a new towing oil bottle, and undoubtedly send yourself into the abyss.

Once a debt default occurs, the Austrian accepts the collateral in accordance with the contract, which is not the bad land on these Asia Minor peninsulas.

Seeing Alexander III hesitating, Army Secretary Paradrew Wald hurriedly opposed: "No! Although the Russian Empire is large, there is no need for every inch of land.

I can sell Asia Minor today because of financial problems, tomorrow I can sell the Balkan Peninsula, and the day after tomorrow I can sell Ukraine. Will it be sold together with the Holy Land?"

Looking at the upright army minister, Alisher Gulov was angry with smoke, which was to buckle the hat of the traitor.

Angrily replied: "Nonsense, who is going to betray the Holy Land, Wald, your boy, don't slanders here!

The Asia Minor Peninsula is Ottoman ’s territory. I want to sell the enemy ’s territory. Is there anything wrong?"

Selling your own land and selling others' land are completely different concepts, especially the enemy's.

Wald disdainfully said: "As long as the Russian military soldiers refer to it, it is the territory of the Russian Empire."

Alisher Gulov refused to be weak: "Well, you can hold the Asia Minor peninsula to live your life, and the post-war pension will not ask me for money."

The gold master is always awesome, and after threatening with post-war pensions, Wald has to move.

The guilty conscience was not guilty, and he still said toughly: "If you dare to withhold your pension, I will take people to the Ministry of Finance every day ..."

Without saying anything later, Alexander III stopped saying: "Shut up for me. This is not the place where you quarrel. You have to quarrel and go home and slowly quarrel."

It is deliberative to call you here.Whether or not to sell the Asia Minor Peninsula is an issue that requires comprehensive consideration, rather than being determined by the subjective consciousness of some people."

Everyone has the meaning of deflecting it. Although it is not clearly stated, everyone can still hear that the Tsar is inclined to sell the Asia Minor Peninsula.

After all, two money can be transferred, and there will be no shop after this village.At another point in time, there is no guarantee that such a good price will be sold.

Heroes can be beaten by a penny, not to mention the shortfall of billions of gold rubles.

If you want to complete industrialization, you can't do without financial support.Not to mention, the most basic infrastructure is still required.

Unfortunately, the losses caused by the Russian-Russian war were too heavy, leaving a lot of mess for the government to clean up, especially the huge debts owed, and it even made the tsarist government breathless.

He couldn't default yet. This time the creditors are not easy to provoke. The Nordic Federation and Austria are one north and one south.
