Ferdinand had just finished the reorganization of the army, and before he could make it, Prime Minister Konstantin and Chancellor of the Exchequer Kennedy came to his door. &1t;/p>

"Grand Duke, this is our expenditure report in this war, and the cost of the war is somewhat unexpected by us, especially the Battle of Constantinople, which is greatly out of budget!" The Chancellor of the Exchequer said solemnly&1t;/p>

Ferdinand nodded and said calmly: "This is normal, the battlefield is ever-changing, and it is normal to have a little accident!" &1t;/p>

After all, we have won this war, and a small monetary loss is also acceptable! By the way, how much? ”&1t;/p>

A trace of panic in the Chancellor's eyes flashed away, and then quickly calmed down and said: "There is no expenditure, but it saves 7ooo million leva." Our original budget was 300 million leva for the war, but now the actual cost is about 230 million leva! ”&1t;/p>

Saved 7ooo million leva, this number flashed in Ferdinand's mind, and he was a little surprised, there was still a balance in the war? It was unexpected! &1t;/p>

You must know that 7ooo million lev, if it is converted into Kuping silver, it is ten thousand taels, and you can buy the Beiyang Fleet! &1t;/p>

When he first crossed over, Ferdinand must have been overjoyed to hear this number, but now, this number could no longer move him. &1t;/p>

After being slightly startled, Ferdinand opened the information casually and looked at it carefully. &1t;/p>

The first thing that came to mind was the consumption of ammunition, which the Bulgarian army consumed in the Balkan War: more than 3.87 million shells of various types and more than 270 million bullets. &1t;/p>

Ferdinand didn't look down at the specific consumption of various shells, anyway, he only saw the total value of nearly 70 million leva, so he continued to look down. &1t;/p>

Among them, in the Battle of Constantinople, 70% of the shells and 30% of the bullets were consumed, and it can be said that the main gold-swallowing family in this war was the Battle of Constantinople! &1t;/p>

Well, and this is only Bulgaria's own ammunition expenses, all expenses are cost prices, and a lot of raw materials for the production of ammunition are only credited with labor costs, and profits are not taken into account at all. &1t;/p>

If it is purchased in the international market, it is impossible to buy it without hundreds of millions of leva! &1t;/p>

As for the heavy artillery supplied by the Russians, as well as the shells consumed, they were not counted in the class. &1t;/p>

The Ministry of Finance also gave a preliminary estimate that the more than 300 heavy artillery pieces are hundreds of thousands of leva, and any shell costs hundreds of leva. &1t;/p>

If this cost is counted on Bulgaria's head, the value of more than 200,000 shells alone will not be less than 30 million leva, and if you add that the value of the cannon itself is not 70 or 80 million leva, it will not be able to take it! &1t;/p>

Of course, for Russia, there is no problem at all, and it is less than 30 million when converted into rubles, and only 3 million when converted into pounds. &1t;/p>

After taking the Black Sea Gateway, it cost only three million pounds, no matter how you look at Nicholas II, he made a lot of money! &1t;/p>

You must know that even if you don't consider the military value, in terms of economic value alone: this golden waterway, the annual tariff charged, is more than that! &1t;/p>

Moreover, it also involves the issue of the Russian economic exhibition, especially the export of agricultural products, and the control of this golden waterway will greatly increase the competitiveness of Russian agricultural products in the international arena! &1t;/p>

Of course, now the Russians are still arguing with the Ottomans over this issue! &1t;/p>

As for Bulgaria? Ferdinand decisively chose to give up, and countless historical lessons told him that since ancient times, those who rob meat with the boss will not end well! &1t;/p>

The next thing is that after the mobilization, the newly opened weapons and equipment, more than 400,000 new rifles, this is really not expensive, less than 10 million leva, it is really a work of imitation hair, the skin is durable, good quality and cheap! &1t;/p>

Next is the artillery, mainly the primary version of the mortar and the 75mm field gun, a total of more than a thousand, with a total value of more than 30 million leva, which is not too expensive and acceptable. &1t;/p>

Weapons that have been equipped before do not count! &1t;/p>

Further down is the consumption of all kinds of materials, a lot of mess, including food, cloth, tents, military uniforms, medicines...... &1t;/p>

This piece adds up, the number is a bit large, as high as more than 70 million leva, and the large amount of materials captured by the army has not yet been recorded, and it has been directly used and not counted. &1t;/p>

Taking into account the actual situation, although the total number of mobilized troops in Bulgaria is as high as more than 600,000, the actual number of troops engaged in front-line operations is only more than 400,000. &1t;/p>

In this way, based on the calculation of three months of combat, the average daily consumption of living materials for each soldier is about two leva. &1t;/p>

If the seized materials are also included, this number is estimated to increase considerably! &1t;/p>

Moreover, these more than 400,000 people did not fight every day, except for the First Army, which basically fought for three consecutive months, most of the other troops ended the war in the first month. &1t;/p>

In this way, the consumption is very large, but considering the battlefield transportation, as well as the collection of a large number of guerrillas, it is probably about the same! &1t;/p>

In addition to these expenses, the rest is the military salary, which does not need to be counted, Ferdinand knows that it is definitely an astronomical amount! &1t;/p>

Even if an ordinary soldier in wartime is a month, 1ooo lev is good, and according to the 400,000 people who directly participated in the war, it will be 4ooo million a month! &1t;/p>

Oh, in fact, there must be more than that, the sappers who went to the front line can't be none of them, right? The rear did not directly participate in the war, and the army responsible for protecting the transport lines also had to be subsidized, right? &1t;/p>

I saw the military salary expenditure, a total of 5ooo million leva! Looking at this number, Ferdinand was a little dumbfounded, and suddenly wanted to ask if you wrote a zero less? &1t;/p>

Even if the Ministry of Finance gave two or three hundred million leva for military salaries, Ferdinand would accept it and would not be surprised at all, but 50 million leva is really not enough for a month's military salary! &1t;/p>

However, Ferdinand still looked at it patiently, the more he looked at it, the more frightened he became, the 50 million leva not only included soldiers' salaries, but also included casualty pensions and wartime bonuses! &1t;/p>

Well, when he saw the word "land", he understood it all! &1t;/p>

This is thanks to Ferdinand's preferential policy of "officers and soldiers who have made military merits and are willing to immigrate to Albania can get twice the amount of land they will reward, and the difference can be made up with money" for shortcomings! &1t;/p>

The most important thing is that the price of Ferdinand's land is half of the current price of land in Bulgaria! &1t;/p>

There are cheap and not taking advantage of the bastard, such a big benefit is enough to be moving. In order to encourage immigration, the government provides exchange services even if there is land in the country. &1t;/p>

As for whether it will suffer, no one will be worried! Anyway, this kind of immigration relocation, everyone can choose freely, a group of comrades-in-arms get together, even if there is, they are the only ones to bully people, and no one dares to find their forks! &1t;/p>

Besides, the news of professional placement has long been spread! &1t;/p>

If you stay in the same place, it is really difficult to become a government official, and the pressure of competition is too great. &1t;/p>

It's different if you move out, for ordinary soldiers, the officers are mixed, but there is always a chance to mix with ordinary staff! &1t;/p>

After all, whether it is qualifications, merit, or reliability, they have an advantage over the locals! &1t;/p>

Even in terms of the level of knowledge, these soldiers have an advantage, and Bulgaria has the highest level of basic education in the world, which is really not bragging! &1t;/p>

Seeing the number of applications for relocation, Ferdinand was dumbfounded, is this going to move en masse? &1t;/p>

"123,000 people!" &1t;/p>

It doesn't seem like much, but in fact, it also represents the 123,000 families behind it, involving hundreds of thousands of immigrants! &1t;/p>

This number is far higher than the previous government's estimate! By the way, the government still has nearly 2 million hectares of land, which is about to be divided! &1t;/p>

Among them, there are nearly six floors of land, all of which make up the difference, and it seems that even if the amount is not in the tax incentives, many people are still willing to buy land at a low price! &1t;/p>

Now it was Ferdinand's turn to worry, Albania was probably not enough land. These hundreds of thousands of families also have a lot of land, and the specific amount is still being counted, anyway, when added up, it is definitely an astronomical number! &1t;/p>

"So be it! Expand the scope of immigrants, Albania alone cannot be resettled, so simply scatter immigrants everywhere! &1t;/p>

The specific location will be determined by the government! Allocate the number of immigrants who go to various places according to the actual situation! &1t;/p>

Considering the complexity of many areas, the choice of immigrants should not be too scattered, at least one immigrant settlement must not be less than 800 people! &1t;/p>

In addition, soldiers who have made meritorious achievements are allowed to buy rifles for their own use, but they must report to the local armed forces department, and the limit is to buy ammunition! ”&1t;/p>

Ferdinand is still very protective of his shortcomings, and he still attaches great importance to these soldiers who have sacrificed their lives for him. Ferdinand knew very well that these soldiers were the cornerstone of his future stability in Bulgaria! &1t;/p>

As for letting them carry guns, in addition to protecting their own safety, there is also an advantage that they can suppress rebellions everywhere at any time! &1t;/p>

There is no need to send troops to a regional rebellion like that of a thousand children and 800 people, and one hundred and eighty soldiers in one settlement will suppress them! &1t;/p>

As for the bigger rebellion, are you a fool to be an intelligence service? History has taught Ferdinand that all self-organized rebellions are from small to large! &1t;/p>

As for the peasant uprising of 1.8 million people, it is impossible to live in the Balkans! &1t;/p>

Even during the Ottoman Empire, Ferdinand paid money and guns, and even personally sent people to command, but he did not toss out a peasant uprising of more than 10,000 people! &1t;/p>

Even if it expands later, it is also to learn to fight as a rogue, and it is carried all the way! But this method has become more and more backward in modern times! &1t;/p>

As long as they are stabilized in the future, then Bulgaria will also be stabilized! &1t;/p>

Such an obvious benefit, Ferdinand could see it at a glance, and Konstantin couldn't see it for no reason. Needless to explain, as soon as Ferdinand proposed the plan, he immediately agreed. &1t;/p>

Only the Chancellor of the Exchequer is left in pain, and this time he will lose a lot of money! &1t;/p>

Seeing the Chancellor's reaction, Ferdinand wondered, and asked suspiciously: "By the way, so many people are buying land, are they all so rich?" ”&1t;/p>

You must know that land in Bulgaria is not cheap now, and a hectare of land usually costs more than 16,000 leva. &1t;/p>

In plain areas with good geological conditions, this figure can be as high as more than 23,000 leva per hectare, which is not cheap! &1t;/p>

Ordinary workers can probably buy more than one acre of land after a year of hard work, and theoretically they can buy one hectare of land with all their income for about ten years, which is the main reason why Bulgarians are so keen to join the army! &1t;/p>

In these days, there is really no way to be an ordinary worker! &1t;/p>

The Chancellor of the Exchequer looked at Ferdinand and said with some embarrassment: "No, the Grand Duke, for ordinary soldiers, the money for the purchase of these lands is still a huge sum!" &1t;/p>

But the Royal Bank and the Union Bank launched a loan service specifically for them, and the soldiers could use the purchased land as a mortgage. &1t;/p>

And it's also low-interest, basically they buy part of the land, and the annual income generated is enough to pay this part of the interest! &1t;/p>

Therefore, there are many people who apply for land, and I estimate that if the government does not finalize these things as soon as possible, the land purchased will continue to increase in the future! ”&1t;/p>

Ferdinand was overjoyed, he didn't expect his subordinates to be so business-minded and tie up a group of high-quality customers so quickly! &1t;/p>

What is the easiest money to make? Of course, follow the policy! Now that Ferdinand is clearly supporting the military class and using them to fight the world, is it possible that they will go bankrupt on a large scale in this context? &1t;/p>

Besides, at the end of the 19th century, agriculture was still a very stable investment path, and basically before the synthetic ammonia came out, the income from agricultural land would not be too bad! &1t;/p>
