Chapter 723: Knocking on Dick
When Chancellor Dicko saw Valewski appear in front of him, he immediately realized that he might be in big trouble?
Sure enough, Valewski, who had just come to Chancellor Diko, immediately said to Diko: "Mr. Diko, Your Majesty invites you to come over!" ”
"Your Excellency Valewski!" As he spoke, Minister Diko quietly handed Valewski a note: "How is Your Majesty feeling now?" ”
Walewski skillfully accepted the bill handed over by Minister Diko (mainly to reassure Diko), and replied to Chancellor Diko in a solemn tone: "Your Majesty was in a bad mood before I left!
Don't blame me for being too talkative, Minister Dick, what the hell is going on with your shipyards in Toulon?
Before leaving, Your Majesty clearly ordered you to appropriately slow down the speed of enterprise expansion!
Our current prosperity is based on the war, and now that the war is over, where do you want Your Majesty to conjure up so many orders for you! ”
In the face of Valewski's complaints, Minister Dicko's face also showed a helpless smile.
Poor how did he know that the war would end so soon.
According to his estimates, the war would end at least by the middle of this year (1855), and he would only need to use the Maritime Commission at the beginning of the year to make directive adjustments to the enterprises that joined the Commission, and he would be able to survive the crisis of overcapacity.
As a result, the sudden peace talks did not allow the Maritime Commission to make appropriate adjustments.
A hasty halt of the order will lead to a heavy blow to the shipbuilding industry in the port of Toulon.
"Your Excellency Valevsky, we really didn't expect Russia to surrender so quickly!" Minister Diko replied to Valevsky with a bitter face, and then asked Valev for help: "You say, what should we do now!" ”
"Your Excellency Dick, when I was in the shipbuilding industry, I didn't know much about it!" Valewski shook his head, and then continued: "However, I don't think Your Majesty's purpose is to punish you, you are still a person who can take on great responsibilities in Your Majesty's heart!"
Wait a while, you just need to explain your difficulties to Your Majesty, and at the same time tell Your Majesty that you are working on solving them! I don't think Your Majesty will be too harsh on you! ”
Hearing Valewski's words, the big stone hanging in Dicko's heart was slightly lowered.
As long as he can continue to stay in this position, he is willing to do whatever His Majesty asks him to do his best.
"Thank you for your teachings!" Chancellor Diko responded to Valewski with sincerity.
"It's all a gesture!" Valewski waved his hand, pretending not to care, "I'm the most enthusiastic person about making friends!" ”
As a newly promoted foreign secretary, Valewski understands that his position has a shelf life.
If you can't go further, just wait for Germany. After Ruiz's side was finished, Valewski had to roll off the post of foreign secretary in a gloomy manner.
However, it is not so easy to take on the role of state minister and keeper of the seal.
Fuld's allies as Minister of State are Chancellor of the Exchequer Magnier and the Governor of the Banque de France, and Mori is the Keeper of the Seals, whose allies are Home Secretary Pessini and Justice Chancellor Ruie (the current alliance between Ruet and Morny-Pessini is close to parting ways, due to the fact that Ruie himself is in Jérôme. Bonaparte appointed a member of the Trusteeship of France.
During this time, his power began to swell, threatening to overpower Molny.
There are two giants in a league that are neck and neck, which means that the alliance is close to breaking down. )
And he, Valewski, could not have the same relationship with every minister as Fuld.
It will not be easy to replace them, so Valewski will have to find the right allies.
His overtures to Dick also meant to win over Dick.
"Your Excellency Valevsky, we have been friends for a long time!" Chancellor Dicko clearly understood what Valewski meant, and he also expressed his intention to get closer to Walewski.
"Yes, yes, yes! We're already friends! The corners of Valewski's mouth also showed a smile, and he nodded busily: "It's not too early!" It's time for us to go, too! Otherwise, Your Majesty will probably have to wait in a hurry! ”
Later, Walewski and Chancellor Dicko arrived at their destination, and the two entered the living room one after the other.
At this time, there was more than Jérôme in the living room. Bonaparte, and Vilnia.
When Vilnya saw the arrival of Valevsky and Minister Diko, he hurriedly stood up and rushed to Rhom. Bonaparte nodded.
"Yes! You go and rest first! "Jérôme. Bonaparte said with a smile.
Vilna left the living room after Jérôme. Bonaparte's expression changed from sunny to gloomy again, and he sat on the sofa with an iron face and did not say a word.
After a while, Valevsky opened his mouth to Jérôme. Bonaparte reported: "Your Majesty, Minister Dico has been called by me! ”
"Oh!" Jérôme. Bonaparte just said an "oh" and said no more.
As the minutes ticked by, the silent pressure pressed Chancellor Dico's heart, leaving Diko breathless.
At this time, Diko was eager to get Jérôme. Bonaparte scolded him severely, and even the scolding was much better than it was now.
The insults of the superiors are often full of hatred for iron and steel.
There is nothing more terrible in the world than not beating or scolding, and directly choosing to ignore it.
This means that in the hearts of the superiors, you are not even qualified to be scolded.
Gradually, the sweat on Chancellor's forehead unconsciously remained, and his expression gradually changed to remorse.
Seeing that the time has come, Jérôme. Bonaparte then opened his mouth and said to Dico: "Dico! ”
"Your Majesty, I'm here!" Jérôme. Bonaparte's heavenly sound echoed in Dico's ears, and Dico excitedly expressed his gratitude to Jérôme. Bonaparte replied.
"What do I think I do to you?" Jérôme. Bonaparte asked Chancellor Dico faintly.
"Your Majesty is as kind to me as a mountain, and it is like rebuilding!" Chancellor Diko hastened to praise Jérôme. Bonaparte said, "It was you who said that I was promoted from an unknown parliamentarian to the rank of Minister of the Admiralty, and that I was able to fulfill my wish!" ”
"You know that, too!" Jérôme. Bonaparte said to Chancellor Dick with a hint of anger: "I have promoted you to the rank of Admiralty and put you in charge of the Navy!" Empower you to appoint and dismiss naval officers, form the Navy General Staff, and the Maritime Council!
When has the military expenditure submitted by your navy been examined and approved as I did with the army!
Those relatives and friends of yours, which one of them is not dependent on the orders of the state to be able to continue to expand!
I have given you the greatest rights! ”
"Your Majesty, how can you repay your kindness to me for a lifetime!" Chancellor Diko puffed to Jérôme. Bonaparte knelt down.
"Stand up!" Jérôme. Bonaparte frowned and said to Dico, "I don't have a tradition of making ministers kneel at every turn!" If you keep kneeling like this, then the conversation between the two of us can be stopped! ”
"Yes! Your Majesty! Diko slowly got up and said to Jérôme. Bonaparte responded.
After Chancellor Diko got up, Jérôme. Bonaparte again asked Chancellor Dico, "Dico, what is the matter with your naval commission?" Before I left, Shen Di asked you to slow down production as much as possible, are you all taking it as a deaf ear! ”
At this point, Chancellor Diko had no choice but to ask Jérôme. Bonaparte admitted his mistake: "Your Majesty, we were wrong! I mistakenly thought that the war between the Empire and Russia might go on for some time, so I did not give a strong order to the Naval Council!
This has had serious consequences! I am willing to accept all punishments! ”
"I don't want to punish anyone right now! I just want to know, what are you going to do? "Jérôme. Bonaparte was reluctant to remove Dicko, the admiral, for this trivial matter.
"Your Majesty, I plan to gradually reduce the demand...... "Minister Diko told Jérôme. Bonaparte, who was ready to submit a new round of shipbuilding requests to Parliament, and then gradually reduce the problem of surplus personnel in the shipbuilding industry.
At the same time, for those shipping companies that have already been organized, he will also take the lead in selling surplus transport ships to countries along the Mediterranean coast.
"A new round of shipbuilding?" Jérôme. Bonaparte muttered quietly.
"That's right! Your Majesty! We must admit the pursuit and strive to reorganize a new fleet group with ironclads as the core! Maintain our trade between the Mediterranean! "Minister Diko to Jérôme. Bonaparte said.
"What are you going to do with our current fleet?" Jérôme. Bonaparte asked again.
"Your Majesty, Mexico and Chile have expressed their willingness to buy our fleet!" Chancellor Diko hurried to Jérôme. Bonaparte responded, "And there is also a country called Satsuma in the Far East (in fact, it is the Satsuma Domain of Japan, but Minister Diko does not know much about the Far East, so he thinks that it is purchased by a country called Satsuma.) and would also like to buy! ”
"The country of Satsuma!" Jérôme. Bonaparte muttered in a low voice, and he hastened to ask if the man Dicko was talking about was not the Satsuma feudal lord.
Chancellor Diko hurriedly looked at Valevsky with a pleading gaze, not understanding that Jerome. Why did Bonaparte suddenly have a heart for Valewski in the Far East, so he had to tell Jérôme everything he knew. Bonaparte.
"The Satsuma Domain, a subordinate of Japan, contacted us half a year ago and said that they wanted to buy the steam ships in our hands!
At the same time, another Japanese feudal lord, the Chosu Domain, also contacted us to buy a batch of Mini rifles, and at the same time hoped that we would send a group of instructors to help them train a good army! ”
