Hearing Ellen Greg's words, Dorothea in the Speaker's seat on the stage also realized the specific rules of the Parliament.

If you want to occupy more seats in parliament and get more votes to influence the passage of the law, you must have sufficient financial strength.

Naturally, she thought of the Union Commercial Bank, which had been in operation for several months and was in good shape.

As the majority shareholder of the commercial bank, Dorosia naturally knew that this bank had accumulated less than 70,000 or 80,000 gold lunt in the heavily guarded underground vault relying on trade and savings between the chambers of commerce of the alliance members.

If other shareholders can be persuaded to withdraw part of this money and lend it to other underfunded chambers of commerce in the same way as Xia Lin and Ellen, it can be called a profitable business, of course, provided that the Imperial Bank has the ability to fully recover all the huge national bonds after three years.

At that time, it would be equivalent to her own left-hand-for-right-hand game as the majority shareholder of the Imperial Bank established by the royal family and the majority shareholder of the Union Commercial Bank, in which the profits earned came from the mortgage of the small chambers of the Golden Lent who were unable to repay their loans when they were due.

Although there will still be a lot of losses in terms of the outcome, it can give Dorothea an immediate extra amount of scarce money in her hands, and at the same time hold dozens of key seats in the upper house.

Dorothea, as the empress, was given a veto at her insistence, but Dorothea also knew that if she really used this veto power willfully, then the weight of her words in the parliament would become less and less, and in the end, everyone would not agree with her power.

At that time, it would be good if she had enough strength to suppress the parliament, but if she was not strong, something terrible would definitely happen, so it would be good for Dorothea to be able to control the seat of the House of Lords by herself.

The other Speakers also realized that this characteristic of the Parliament was actually beneficial to their great nobles, and through the funds at their disposal, they could bring the candidates they wanted into the Imperial Parliament, and eliminate the small chambers and nobles who were not strong enough and unwilling to lean towards their side, so as to hold the legislative power of the Parliament as much as possible.

"If there is just a lack of funds, the alliance commercial bank will also consider issuing loans to the chambers of commerce in need."

"The Lawrence family is also willing to provide some help to our allies!"

"The same goes for the House of Hozia!"

"The Eugene family will also fully support our allies!"

The speakers on the stage expressed their promises one after another, which immediately stopped the parliamentarians who wanted to continue questioning, and with the promises of these big nobles, the nobles and businessmen who were already inclined to them naturally did not have to worry about their credentials.

The other small number of minor nobles and small merchant councillors on the fringes of the enlightened faction, who had been in a neutral position, spoke lightly, and their voices were easily drowned out by the increasingly lively state of the meeting.

In the general vote that followed, the MPs were satisfied with the unprecedented control of the House of Commons, and were dissatisfied with the excessively high threshold set by the two houses, and were not too opposed to the veto power requested by Empress Dorothea.

….

The bicameral parliament proposed by Charin was passed by an overwhelming majority of 251 to 125 votes after amending a few articles.

On the whole, the meeting ended in a relatively harmonious atmosphere.

As for Xia Lin's subsequent proposal to continue to promote the metric unit, continue the construction and research and development of R&D centers, and promote the patent rights to become the first law to be passed after the establishment of the House of Lords, many members of the parliament said that they would naturally do their best to cooperate with those that had been decided, and that they would wait until the House of Lords was established when they were not decided.

After a meeting, many of the Alliance's member chambers of commerce immediately began to obtain funds by various means, and Queen Dorosia and several Speakers went to the nearby Southern District Commercial Bank to start a new round of meetings, Ellen Gregg

It is one of the cores of the Charlin-Ellen Alliance, and because of the commitment to lend funds, it has also become a sweet spot in the eyes of countless chambers of commerce that suffer from lack of funds.

The specific plan for the issuance of treasury bonds has been submitted to Empress Dorosia for review, and he does not need to ask about the financing and establishment of the Imperial Bank, so Xia Lin immediately seized the time and began to promote the progress of other aspects of the plan, the most critical of which is naturally the joint research and development affairs of the New Leaf Chamber of Commerce, the Alliance R&D Center, and the Imperial Capital Guild.

According to the business alliance during this period of time, the member chambers of commerce according to the required format, each of them counted and submitted to Xia Lin, the head of the R&D center, the talent resource table, Xia Lin asked Wyatt to arrange people to select all kinds of craftsmen with more than three years of service from thousands of craftsman resource tables, and began to issue dispatch orders to these chambers of commerce in the name of the alliance.

Although Xia Lin has previously explained that after the R&D center makes the results, the share of the patent rights of these technical achievements will be preferentially distributed to the chamber of commerce that provided these craftsmen, but these shrewd heads of the chamber of commerce obviously will not honestly report to Xia Lin the batch of technical forces with the best skills at hand.

In the form provided by nearly 400 alliance chambers of commerce, more than 95% are apprentices with less than three years of service, and less than 5% of the remaining are those craftsmen who have just passed the three-year apprenticeship period and have a certain level of technology.

However, even so, the huge scale of the alliance provided a total of three hundred and twelve craftsmen of various types for Xia Lin's R&D center.

On the other side, Xia Lin also relied on the order of Empress Dorosia to continue to recruit dwarven craftsmen in the Forge Valley, and soon succeeded in changing the number of dwarven craftsmen under the name of the New Leaf Chamber of Commerce from ten to hundreds, and almost half of the young and middle-aged people in the Crucible Valley were collected by Xia Lin.

Even Master Holguin Copperbeard, whom Xia Lin had been coveting for a long time, was transferred to the expanding gun factory near the R&D center by the royal dispatch order he had specifically asked the empress for, and let him and Master Faun be in charge of the research and development of machine guns and larger-caliber breech guns respectively.

The two parties of the tripartite joint research and development have been prepared, and the remaining guilds in the imperial capital have also seen the face of the empress who has just ascended the throne, and sent a team of craftsmen with a total of one hundred and twenty-three people according to Xia Lin's requirements.

Unlike the craftsmen provided by the alliance, these craftsmen are all old craftsmen, at least they have been engaged in their respective industries for more than ten years, and their skills can be said to have reached the point of extreme profundity, which is just one step away from perfection.

These people also have a high status in their respective guilds, and they are basically a group that can be called "master masters", if it is not for the order of the royal family, Xia Lin will have to pay an extremely huge price even if he is hired.

They included twenty-five washers, thirty-seven potters, fifteen lapidologists, twenty goldsmiths, and seven jewelers.

Washing and dyeing craftsmen are one of the earliest groups of practitioners in the chemical industry, they are in the dye industry of the imperial capital, responsible for extracting pigment dyes from natural materials, the dye formulas they have in their hands, is a secret chemical formula, Xia Lin found them, naturally in order to develop a powerful new explosive, a kind of glycerin and mixed acid reaction products.

To this end, Xia Lin has set up an open-air explosion-proof sand wall laboratory in the shape of a mountain bag on the open space outside the R&D center, which can accommodate a group of four people for research and development.

There were trenches on the outside, and if they saw bad signs during the experiment, the researchers should immediately activate the mage armor scrolls that Xia Lin had equipped them with, and then run out of the lab to hide in these blast trenches covered with fine sand that could absorb the blast waves.
