In the fourteenth year of Dewu, on December 7, 1876, the Ming and Russian sides lasted half a month, and after arduous negotiations, they finally signed the "Permanent Peace Treaty between the Ming Empire and the Eastern Roman Empire" at the Gloria Hotel in Budapest.

Later generations also referred to this treaty as the Treaty of Budapest or the Second Peace Agreement of Mingro.

The Treaty of Budapest stipulates that from now on, the two sides will cease hostile actions such as conquest by force, espionage infiltration, subversion and incitement.

Each side recognizes each other's country names, territorial sovereignty, and core interests of concern.

At the same time, the Treaty of Ming Luo Budapest further clarified the border between the two sides, and completely resolved the 187-year-long territorial dispute between the two sides since the era of the puppet Qing Emperor Xuanye.

The two heads of state jointly pointed out that the two countries have a land border of 2,500 kilometers from the Arctic Ocean in the north to the Caspian Sea in the south.

This is the longest national border in the world.

The Ming Empire and the Roman Empire, as world powers with responsibility, responsibility and action, should make practical efforts to stabilize the regional situation, lay a positive tone for the realization of world peace, and set an example for the vision of a community with a shared future for mankind.

This is the well-being of the Ming Dynasty and the Roman people, the fate of all the people in the world, and the crystallization of the political wisdom and historical responsibility of the heads of state of Ming and Rome.

After the signing of the Treaty of Budapest, representatives of the two sides signed a package of supplementary provisions.

The first is the Proclamation of the Independence of the Tatarstan Khanate and the Treaty between the State Authorities of the Roman Empire and the State Authorities of the Tatarstan Khanate on the Division of Jurisdiction and Reciprocal Authorization.

Xia Zhixin, the left attendant of the Ministry of Rites of the Ming Empire, Nikolanavich, the foreign minister of the Roman Empire, and Kaban Kurugetovich, the magistrate of Tatarstan, signed their names on this document for the founding of the Khanate of Tatarstan.

Of course, Kuzhugetovich, a local official of Tatar origin who was not at all recognizable by name, was taken blindfolded to Budapest to sign the whole process.

He didn't know at all that the organization had already decided that he would be the Tatar Khan.

The area of the Tatarstan Khanate is about 200,000 square kilometers, which is much larger than the later Republic of Tatarstan in the territory of the Russian Federation.

It includes several neighboring states and oblasts with the Republic of Tatarstan as the core, with a total population of about 1.2 million people, of which more than 90% are Tatars or a mixture of Tatars and Slavic races.

Although the length of the north and south of the Tatarstan Khanate is nothing compared to the 2,500-kilometer border of the Minra in terms of area, most of the border is actually inaccessible permafrost forests, and it is impossible to conduct large-scale military operations.

The important geographical location of Kazan determines that the Tatarstan Khanate can indeed play the role of a buffer state.

The "Agreement" stipulates that neither the Eastern Roman Empire nor the Ming Empire shall station troops in Tatarstan or interfere in its internal affairs, and must ensure its independent foreign policy.

But in fact, everyone knows that for a long time to come, the Tatarstan Khanate will inevitably become the stage of soft and hard power confrontation between the two sides.

A small country that survives between two empires simply does not have any room for independence.

In addition to the Proclamation of the Independence of the Tatarstan Khanate, the second supplementary agreement signed by the two sides was the Agreement on the Construction of the Shenzhou-Europa Railway Land Bridge, the Minna Simberia Railway.

The "Agreement" stipulates that since the fifteenth year of Dewu, starting from January 7385 in the Russian calendar, the Ming Empire's Royal Special Things Construction Institute will take the lead in establishing the [Simberia Railway Construction Committee], and Professor Sha Jingfang of the Ming Royal Academy of Sciences will serve as the chairman of the committee.

The predecessor of the Special Things Construction Institute was the famous Imperial Engineering Construction Eighth Bureau, which is also known as the Imperial Construction Eighth Bureau (see Chapter 228 for details).

As early as the beginning of the establishment of the second year of Dewu, the specifications of the 8th bureau of Huangjian were higher than those of the other 7 bureaus.

Not only does it have an independent affiliated school, but it also has a secret R&D room.

For a long time, the 8th Bureau of Imperial Construction has been committed to obeying the will of the Son of Heaven and building all kinds of large-scale projects that are huge, costly and difficult to see returns in the short term.

Projects such as the Tianzi Rock Statue, the Imperial Palace of Xingtai, the Great Salt Lake Railway, the Colorado Dam, etc., are all from the handiwork of the Imperial Construction 8th Bureau.

As the Ming Empire became formalized and the land area continued to expand, Zhu Fugui naturally wanted to decentralize power.

The Royal Engineering and Construction Authority was also restructured.

For example, the Huangjian 6th Bureau, which is responsible for the construction of large-scale factories, and the Huangjian 5th Bureau, which is responsible for the construction of intercity highways, etc., have all been managed by the Ministry of Industry from the direct jurisdiction of the Son of Heaven.

However, the 8th Bureau of the Imperial Construction Bureau, which is called a spectacle construction bureau in the mouth of the common people, still directly serves the Son of Heaven, and is supported by the Son of Heaven like the Jinyi Guard and the Royal Navy, Land and Air Force.

The biggest advantage of this is that the Son of Heaven commands the excavator, and obedience comes first.

Even if His Majesty Zhu Fugui wants to inlay tiles on the Great Wall and repair the guardrail for the Pacific Ocean, the Imperial Construction Bureau 8 must implement it unconditionally.

After all, as a spectacle party, there are many projects, and it is really difficult for Zhu Fugui to explain the purpose of its construction to everyone.

Or some projects, everyone knows that the benefits are in the future, but the cost is indeed huge.

If we really want to unify our opinions, let the ministers speak extensively, and even practice the representative system according to the foreigners, I am afraid that there will be no hope for ten or eight years.

Since it is difficult to explain, Zhu Fugui simply does not explain.

I used my own contractor team and my own private money to build, eh, it's just fun.

This time, the Xianbeilian Railway was also Zhu Fugui's decision and the Sacred Heart was arbitrary.

This thing has not been ten years, and I am afraid it will be difficult to return to its original cost.

The only thing that surprised Zhu Fugui was that on the English annex translated by the Russian side, the Special Things Construction Institute was translated as "Special ConstructionProcedures", referred to as ***.

I have to say that for this abbreviation, if you think about it carefully, it is also very appropriate.

The third supplementary agreement is the so-called "Mingluo Agreement on Mutual Recognition of Higher Education Degrees".

This was mainly signed at the request of the Romanian side, and it was also for the basic preparation of the Romanian international student group to go to Fengdu for further study.

Considering that Moscow State University and St. Petersburg University have trained a series of outstanding scientists in history, Zhu Fugui still recognizes the level of education in Russia.

In these years, college students are rare for any country, and if there are Russian university graduates of science and engineering who want to come to Daming to work, Daming is naturally welcome.

As for naturalization, that's another matter, and the mouth won't be so loose.

But in any case, it is a matter of course to recognize their academic qualifications, even as a bonus item in the naturalization policy.
