The opening of this joint motorcycle, Mussolini can be said to have given enough face, not only personally went but also brought five ministers, although these ministers and Contini also have their own entanglements, but I have to say that this formation is still very large, Mussolini did not bring so many cabinet members to visit Switzerland.

And because the company's location is not in Rome, Mussolini and others deliberately took a special car to go overnight, although the old Ciano has arranged the best carriages, and at the same time let the railway department arrange the highest priority all the way, and the more than 500 kilometers from Rome to Milan also walked all night, so the final opening and launch ceremonies were held in the afternoon - at least to let the officials rest for a morning and recuperate before they could show up.

Along the way, several people were making jokes about the old Chiano, saying that they were going to Milan for a "pilgrimage" to meet Italy's youngest industrial tycoon and political star, the United Group's industries have now expanded to 7-8, and it is said that they are planning to open a United Film Company and United Power Company.

Mussolini smiled and said: "Now to introduce Calais, I will say that he is the son of His Excellency Minister Ziano, and in a few years, maybe he will be introduced in reverse, saying that this is the father of Calais, the chairman of the United Group......"

"Hah!" A bunch of people burst into laughter.

"By the way, Matteotti's first complaint to the Supreme Court is said to have been rejected, and he is still reversing the second appeal, and he is still using the power of the Socialist Party to put pressure on the court, what do you think about this?"

"Calais told me that as long as he finds evidence, he will sue the Socialist Party for unconstitutionality in the Administrative Court and for interfering in the administration of justice with the power of the administration and the party, and the lawyer has been found, and three more have been added, and now 7 of the 10 most famous barristers in Italy are serving Calais." Ciano Sr. smiled, "Didn't Matteotimo think that by appealing to the Supreme Court, he could wash away the fact that he embezzled public funds and went in and out of the red light district?" I don't know what he has been doing in his years as a parliamentarian? Is all the energy spent on a woman's belly? ”

"Prosecuting the Socialist Party for unconstitutionality?" Mussolini rolled his eyes and immediately shouted, "Okay, good, really a young man, dare to think, dare to do, dare to fight, but at the age of 20, he dared to challenge the Socialist Party, I really like it more and more, I think I was more than 31 years old when I was trembling to challenge the Socialist Party." Oops, can't compare, can't compare. ”

After the start of World War I, Mussolini, who was still the backbone of the Socialist Party at that time, made a completely different voice on whether to join the war, especially whether to stand on the side of the Entente and start a war with the Central Powers, and was finally expelled from the Socialist Party.

Old Ciano complimented: "Leader, that's different, at that time you were single-handedly challenging the Socialist Party, no one escorted you, Calais is doing this now because you and the ministers are supporting him, otherwise he would have eaten people without even dregs with his two blows." ”

This compliment subtly flattered Mussolini and made him happy.

When the special car arrived at Milan station, the mayor of Milan and other government dignitaries were already waiting at the train station to greet him, and Contini was at the end of the welcoming procession - although Mussolini and his entourage were going to attend the afternoon ceremony, after all, he still had the hat on his head to inspect Milan on his head, so he was very knowledgeable and low-key.

When shaking hands, the reporters rushed up, and the spotlights flashed, but at this time, a voice sounded coldly: "Your Excellency Prime Minister, I am a reporter from the "Socialists", you and the ministers put aside Rome's official business, and made a special trip to Milan to cut the ribbon to congratulate the opening of a private company. ”

Mussolini's face, which had been full of smiles and great joy, suddenly lengthened, and he sneered: "It seems that the socialists are very unhappy that I came to Milan to inspect it?" Isn't Milan the territory of the Italian state? Can't I, as Prime Minister, come to Milan and have a look? ”

Alberto, the Minister of Commerce and Industry next to him, then said: "Yes, we do have to go to United Motorcycles to attend the opening ceremony and the launch of the product method, but I don't think there is any problem. United Motorcycle and even the United Group behind it is a large enterprise formed after the establishment of the new government, spanning a number of economic fields, making an example in all aspects, making special contributions in the fields of social undertakings and national defense, and also creating many firsts, setting up Italy's first color newspaper, color magazine, the first civil aviation enterprise, the first radio station, the first radio company, the first air postal delivery, is the best portrayal of innovation and change, and is also a typical example of the government's support for local enterprises and national economy. If such typical people and typical enterprises do not support it, who else can we support? Will you be going to slam the government for ignoring innovation, stifling change, and hindering industrial and commercial progress in two days' time? If you Socialists had focused on building industry instead of focusing on women's bellies, as some Socialists have done, I think Italy would have a better tomorrow. ”

The crowd of onlookers burst into laughter.

The reporter was about to retort, but Mussolini had already beckoned Contini over, and while shaking hands warmly, he said: "Calais, when you organized the young students of Rome to meet the righteous act of fascisty, and now you are setting up an industry to solve the problems of people's livelihood and taxation for the government, I think you should be greatly praised, as long as I am prime minister for one day, I and the ministers will be your most powerful and strong backing." ”

Alberto also said: "Since there are those who have to question it, I announce a decision today in public, Mr. Galeazzo Ziano, in view of your contribution to business and industry and a series of innovations in the new economy, would you like to accept the appointment of the Assistant Minister of Commerce and Industry in order to make a new contribution to the Italian economy?" The position does not occupy the official establishment of the Government and is not subject to salary. ”

Contini was stunned, why did he suddenly get involved in this, and Alberto is not a fascist figure, he is a minister sent by the Italian Catholic Party. Just when he was stunned, the old Ciano was already signaling with his eyes, and he hurriedly replied: "Of course I do, I hope to contribute to the economic development of Italy with my own modest efforts, and eagerly look forward to the United Group and its subordinate industries working hard for the goal of innovation, change and growth under the care of the new government!" ”

Everyone began to applaud, and then a bunch of dignitaries took a group photo at the gate of the train station, originally according to Contini's identity, he could only stand in the far corner of the line, but because of the stimulation of the socialists, Mussolini deliberately wanted to fight them, so he put Contini in the middle, and changed to Mussolini and other ministers on the left, and the mayor of Milan and other Milanese local dignitaries on the right, as if the central and local governments surrounded Contini.

The limelight is enough, and Contini has calmly figured it out: it seems that it is impossible to hire a lawyer to accuse the Socialist Party of being unconstitutional, and during this time Matteotti was busy with the lawsuit and was not in the mood to quarrel with Mussolini, it seems that the latter has tasted the sweetness, and the reporter's trouble just now probably strengthened his determination.

As for Alberto's strange movements, Contini then understood, and the elder Ciano whispered to him in the car: "Your article about "Fracture and Inheritance" was seen by the Pope, and basically expressed his approval, Pius XI himself had a good impression of you, and asked the intermediary to take the talk, hoping that you can go and meet the Pope when you have time, and pave the way for the leader to meet the Pope, of course, you must donate to the Pope, at least 1 million lira." ”

This reason explains why the Catholic Party's Alberto has just stepped forward to support such a step, and Contini nodded silently: it costs money to fight a lawsuit, hire a lawyer, and it costs money to meet the Pope, and it seems that the projected losses this year will have to expand.
