The development of the population in Moravia was a major problem, and the development of the local population was not something that Ernst could do, and the participation of all the Moravian nobles in it only played an accelerating role.

But this was enough, and this was Ernst's purpose, as long as the population grew, other things could be solved slowly, such as the Moravian nobility.

School, this is a big trump card for Ernst to balance the nobles in the future, but it is also easy to balance himself, but the current problem has not been solved, who will think about the future?

It was semi-mandatory for each town in Moravia to establish a primary school, and in the city of Moravia a secondary school and high school, where all young children of the appropriate age were required to attend school.

This did not solve the immediate problem, but in 10 or 20 years they would be able to replace the nobles and help Ernst govern the whole of Moravia.

The nobles can't see this? They can see but can't refuse, not to mention that the military power is in the hands of Ernst, and even the pressure of the side children makes the major nobles unable to bear it and can only choose to compromise.

Ordinary children naturally need to pay tuition fees to go to school, although it is not cash, but it also needs to be deducted from the annual labor service, which is why this is a semi-compulsory study.

Of course, it is only mandatory to go to elementary school, for example, middle school and high school are optional, and those who like it can continue to go to school, and those who don't like it can go home to help their families work.

It's the 20th century, and although some of the old ideas haven't changed, it's clear to every family that learning can make a difference, so they don't have much aversion to Ernst's compulsory learning.

The children of the aristocracy did not need to pay fees, which made many poor children very excited, if it were not for Ernst, it is estimated that even they could only look at the high cost of hiring teachers and lament.

This was all for later, and when the question of the school raised by Ernst as Speaker was passed in Parliament, Ernst immediately brought out the road investment plan that he had prepared for a long time.

If you want to get rich, you must first build roads, and this saying is not only applicable to a certain Asian country in the 80s and 90s, but also to the Austro-Hungarian Moravian region in the early 20th century.

When the highway is built, the goods here can go out, the things outside can come in, and the economy can be revitalized because of this.

No one objected to the matter of the road, after all, it was a matter that was good for the whole of Moravia, and they could not be allowed to refuse, and they had no reason to refuse.

It would cost about £150,000 to build the entire road to the city of Kraliki, which is a huge amount of money for the impoverished Moravian region.

Fortunately, Ernst offered to repair rather than rebuild a new road, which reduced the £150,000 to £6 or £70,000.

Although there are still a lot, this is already within the acceptance level of the Moravian aristocracy, each family contributes a few thousand pounds each, and the rest can be settled by the Moravian city government.

After the meeting, Viscount Ladislav Berland was the first to leave the meeting, and he was not expected to be present in Moravian politics for a long time to come.

The nobles took their leave one by one after a brief greeting with Ernst, and although they were not very satisfied with the outcome before them, they were satisfied with the worst of expectations.

One must learn to be content, and if greed is not diminished, then the only way to go is destruction, and Viscount Ladislav Berland and the Moravian nobles were clearly aware of this, so that they were able to rule Moravia for a hundred years.

Ernst was the only one left in the empty council hall, and Bert entered the door and stood quietly behind the distracted Ernst, and it was a long time before Ernst sighed faintly.

"This time it's been unexpected, Lord Earl, you'......"

"You think I should be satisfied?"

"This ......"

Bert was speechless, he really wanted to nod if he could, but he knew Ernst had something to say, so he chose to wait quietly.

"We don't have a lot of time left, I need to have a solid rear, Moravian ......"

Ernst's voice was not very small, but Bert was very confused, what time was short, what was the solid rear, this is the war coming? But now that the world is at peace, even if there are some contradictions, it is all our own business.

Own business...... The British royal family, the German royal family, and the Austro-Hungarian royal family, the most powerful countries in Europe, all have marriage relations with each other, and even cousins (brothers) and cousins and nephews of each other.

Ignoring Bert's inner doubts, Ernst directly gave his new order: "Prepare the carriage, let's go to the city hall to have a look, and hope that this mayor is really a man of real talent." ”

Ernst's words were of great significance, and Bert wondered inwardly: "Could it be that Ernst is ready to attack the city so quickly?" They had just arrived in Moravia, and even then Ernst had been Speaker for less than two hours. ”

The master's order is supreme, and even if there is much confusion in the heart, it needs to be completed unconditionally, and the carriage is quickly ready under such circumstances.

Walking the streets again, unlike when he came, Ernst was now the real ruler of the city, and he even had the power to remove the mayor.

"Bert, I need to meet Floyd, and if I can, invite him later!"

Ask who the popular figures in Moravia are right now, then Freud is the first person to deserve it, because without his knowledge he has become the first person in real power in Moravia.

Whether it is Ernst or the local aristocratic forces, their only hope of crushing each other is in Freud, which side they fall to will have the advantage in the future.

Ernst naturally did not know that Freud had made a decision, and if he had, then he would not have chosen to make an appointment at the city hall.

As in many European cities, the most luxurious and high-profile places in cities are never city halls but churches, and Moravia is no exception.

Compared to the church next to it, the city hall looks much smaller, but it is no longer the Middle Ages, and the light of God is no longer dazzling enough to cover everything, and the government is the real administrator.

The council is in control, the city government is in charge, and all that remains of the church is glory.

Stannis Gross, Mayor of Moravia, succeeded in 1885, a member of the Gross family, studied in Germany, and was one of the leading economic talents in Moravia.

"The Gross?"

In response to Ernst's inquiry, Burton nodded and said yes, the Gross family, one of the three major families in Moravia.

The Birlan family, the Yanáček family, the Gross family, if the Berlan family rose because of Viscount Leoš Yanáček, and the Janáček family is a matter of heritage, then the Gross family relies on the family's management talent.

The Speaker of the Moravian Parliament is constantly changing, but the mayor has always been a member of the Gross family, and it has to be said that the Moravian region has maintained a certain level despite its management, although it has not achieved any obvious results under their management.
