Chapter 55: The Political Vortex (7)

The family planning policy and the strategy of attacking the public have caused a storm in the city, and the pope has come out to express his position at a critical moment.

The Pope is too lazy to deal with the issue of freedom of speech, but the anti-abortion is a consistent advocacy of the Church – although every year there are scandals between the clergy and nuns and the birth of children, but this does not prevent the Church from supporting it openly. In addition, Contini has given the church a lot of funding and preferred stock dividends in the past two years, and after knowing that it was his handiwork, it is reasonable for the church to stand up and support it!

Pius XII openly supported the anti-abortion strategy and believed that family planning was necessary – the more children you had, the more the gospel of the Lord would be spread. In view of the reality of orphans, abandoned children, etc., he announced that the church would contribute 20 million lire to the nursery and welfare home project, which in fact the church and the union group had a tacit understanding: the people were mainly collected by the union group, and the church was mainly responsible for early education and the admission of clergy.

Both sides have their own needs: since it is necessary to brainwash orphans and street children, it is not possible to use fascists and three flags - because this is what works for adults and not for children, and the Church intervenes very well at this time. Of course, the church will not really pay for it, the money is in the name of the church, and the actual funder is still the United Group.

In this way, the clergy can tout that the president has given the children a second life and given them a different chance to grow - some words are not as effective as others saying them, and subtly will form the children's centripetal force and sense of cohesion towards Contini.

In order to manage this group of children, Contini also took great pains: he used the church, the United Group, the Youth Union and other means to do a multi-pronged approach, but he did not want people to see that he was raising orphans, so his approach was very much in line with the teachings of Fascist.

According to the rules drawn up by Contini, children under the age of 7 are free-range, and children over the age of 7 must begin to be organized: children between the ages of 7 and 12 are organized into the wolf group, and each age group forms an echelon, which is supervised by the education supervisor and selects the best and most leading children to become the echelon leader, and the echelon leader not only leads the personnel of the echelon, but also competes between the echelons - the younger age group is entertaining and educational, and the older age group has a much stronger competitive atmosphere;

Teenagers aged 13-16 are assigned to the Fascist Youth League, which is considered a reserve army of the Youth League, and must not only receive a complete education, but also undergo militarized training, develop a sense of discipline, obedience, and leadership - the ostensible leader is of course Mussolini, but since the whole activity is under the Youth League, then His Excellency the Youth Leader naturally has to be touted. The competition in the youth league is much more fierce, and it is based on the whole team, and the captain who does not perform well will first be punished, and then the team members will also involve others and force them to develop a team mentality.

This whole system of education, called "Fascist National Education", was piloted, in Contini's words, and then spread throughout the country after the experiment, with an annual parade in which all ages participated.

Mussolini was very interested in this matter, thinking that Contini's idea was right, fascist education should start from the baby, as long as the young people are grasped and the young people are captured, there will be enough reserves,

"Your father would do such a stupid thing!"

Contini shrugged: "So, now we have to seize every opportunity, and judging from this rumor, there are other competitors in the party who are attacking me - the fact that I am the secretary general and get rid of the secretary general has put them under pressure, and my people have been investigating for a long time, and they can be sure that the source of the rumors is either in Milan or Rome, and it has nothing to do with foreign powers!" ”

Madame nodded solemnly: "You can be careful. ”

"The point is that I can't be like my father...... He is a good old man, he can talk to anyone, and he has no desperate ambitions, so no one regards him as an opponent, but I am different, I was killed through a bloody road, and I have two titles, the young leader and the leader's son-in-law - this is almost a thorn in their side, who doesn't want this position? Contini then added, "The leader was assassinated this time and was unharmed, who can guarantee next time?" What if I don't have any preparation and something happens at last? Other opponents will destroy our family! Moreover, this assassination reminded everyone that the position of the leader is relatively stable politically, but it is not very reliable in terms of security. ”

This remark also frightened the old Mrs. Ziano: the right position, when you are in a position, even if you want to give in to the opponent, you will not believe it, it must be the target of public criticism.

"To say something disrespectful to the leader, with his virtue of loving women, what if he sends a beautiful assassin?"

"He's going to have to fight with women one day!" Madame said indignantly, and then said, "Does your father have such tendencies?" Recently I noticed that he was coming back late......"

"I ......," Contini cried and laughed, "Mother, I can't take care of this, he's my father, what can I say?" Besides, I have two people in Switzerland who don't know anything, and you don't care about it! ”

"You lend me the dark one!"

"That's not going to work!" Contini shook his head repeatedly, and the dark one went to stare at the old Ziano? Isn't that a mess?

"Okay, I'll just keep an eye on it, if he dares to mess around, I'll ......"

"Don't...... Don't make a storm in the city, such a kind person as my father. ”

"Now you're speaking for him? Is he already hiding something from me, and then you come to play sloppy? ”

"No, that's not what I meant......" Contini was speechless, finding that he was getting darker and darker, so he had to tear the topic away, "During this time, you should be careful, go out less, listen less to rumors, and call me if there is anything wrong." Forget it, you better go to Switzerland, Adriana is about to give birth! ”

"Oh, I forgot about it, so won't your father be even more unsupervised when I'm gone? Don't be the prime minister, first learn the bad atmosphere of the prime minister! ”

"Leave him alone, give him a little more leniency, and our own people must unite first." Contini told Wan Wan, "Don't tell your father what I just told you about 10-12 years, it will scare him!" Maybe you won't be able to sleep at night! ”

Her mother giggled: "Don't worry, I won't say it!" ”

After Contini left, Ciano the Elder asked Madame: "What did Calais say to you, that you are smiling so happily?" ”

"He said Adriana is about to give birth, let me go to Switzerland for a few days, give you a little relaxation, in case there are goblins outside, you can have a good time."

"Inexplicable, too lazy to pay attention to you!" Old Ciano popped out a sentence and continued to read the newspaper......
