Lord of Industrialization

The Court of Nobility was the first to fall, followed closely by the Court of Commerce.

The most important thing that businessmen lack is manpower. Many people are willing to do such things as going to the toilet with their salary. The cubicles in the commercial court are not enough for them.

The common people have almost zero means to oppose the bureaucracy. Now that there is a method that can defeat the big bosses, and they use means that they have no control over, how can they not follow suit.

The toilet occupation movement quickly spread throughout the Kingdom of Gaul, and for a while local governments were miserable.

News reached the fortress of Tulus in the southwest.

Last summer, the two heirs to the throne in the Kingdom of Tarago, Archduke Suarez and Duke Alansati, officially turned against each other. Immediately, the Gallic army supporting Duke Alansati crossed the Snow Cow Mountains and entered the tower under the command of Prince Moritz. Northeast of the Kingdom of Largo.

The coalition composed of the Duke of Aransati and the vanguard of the Gallic army fought a small battle with the escort of Archduke Suarez south of the city of Magritte, the capital of King Tarago. The coalition defeated Suarez in the eyes of the coalition. The Grand Duke, Grand Duke Suarez, retreated calmly with the crown stolen from the palace, and everyone thought they had won.

Now that the weather is starting to get warmer and the new year's military operations are about to begin, unexpectedly there is trouble in the country.

At the state meeting, Louis the Younger said to Louis the Elder: "Father, I suggest sending a special envoy back to the city of Barris to deal with this matter."

Old Louis just looked down at the document in his hand and did not answer.

In his view, those bureaucrats have been doing too badly for so many years, and it’s time to crack down on them.

He turned to the next page, which was a leaflet. The content on it made him read in a low voice: "Taxation is not an obligation, but a contract between taxpayers and tax collectors. Taxpayers pay taxes to tax collectors. Tax collectors provide taxpayers with fair protection..."

Old Louis glanced at the author, turned around and ordered: "Invite this Guiyum. Please note that this is a sincere invitation. Don't cause anything else to happen to me."

The secretary on the side understood what the king meant, but still made sure and asked: "Your Majesty, how about the etiquette of inviting knights into the palace?"

For people who work, there is no standard for "sincerity", so it is better to use examples with clear standards to measure it.

Old Louis nodded and said, "Okay."

Little Louis asked curiously: "Father, does this person have any special talents?"

Old Louis replied: "I don't know yet. We will wait until he comes."

"Now I'll give you a mission to visit the Principality of Wesson and try to buy more medicines."

Last summer and autumn, an army in Gaul suffered from enteritis due to water supply problems. In the past, 20 to 30% of the people died. In the end, they were cured with allicin capsules, and no one died.

Little Louis looked a little bad. Logically speaking, as a prince, he should have followed the vanguard to gain merit last year, but he was left at home to manage logistics. Now a new military operation is about to begin, and he has to go to the Principality of Wesson.

Military merit is of the highest value these days. Since the beginning of the war, little Louis has only gained a little bit of water. Even after he becomes the king, his voice will be much lower in front of those military leaders.

What's more important is that you can win over those military leaders during the war and make them your supporters.

Now, there is nothing.

Little Louis envied Frederick in his heart, because his troops all obeyed him, so it was easy to do whatever he wanted in the country.

"Sneeze, sneeze, sneeze!!!"

Frederick sneezed three times in a row, which made all the officials in Hanma City extremely nervous. It was very common these days to lose one's life due to catching a cold.

"It's okay." Frederick waved his hand, "It's just that my nose is a little itchy."

He turned to the officials and asked, "Is there enough food?"

Frederick went to the north. When he came back, the Kingdom of Sverriers officially launched an attack on the Kingdom of Damma. At the same time, it sent a large number of plundering fleets south to plunder the east bank of the Elbe River and the northern coastal areas of the Piast Kingdom.

The Kingdom of Danma is located to the north of Hanma City and is mainly composed of the Cimbrica Peninsula and a large number of islands to the east. It is across the sea from the Kingdom of Sverier in the north of the ocean. The two countries can geographically block the eastern part of the North Sea at the same time.

King Kosdorf of the Sverrier Kingdom has already announced that the east side of the North Sea will become his own inland sea.

In just a few days, Lanxi Island, the largest island east of the Danma Kingdom, was occupied. At the same time, a large number of refugees from the southern coast of the North Sea poured across the Elbe River towards Hanma City.

On the Rhine League side, Rudolf responded quite quickly. While sending the Minister of Military Affairs, Count Pistor, to Hanma City to understand the situation on the spot, he also asked the domestic lords to prepare to assemble their troops and rebuild the Elbe River defense line as appropriate.

Frederick met Count Pistol as soon as he disembarked in Hanma.

When Count Pisto saw him, it was as if he saw a life-saving straw. He wished he could immediately give him his identity as a special envoy, and immediately went straight to the telegraph office to send a report to the city of Cologne.

After Frederick settled Catherine, he came to the city wall. Outside the city, there was a large mess of tents, all of which were refugees who had fled.

The officials of Hanma City could logically ignore Frederick's request, but Frederick's fist had a greater reason and they had to take it seriously.

An official immediately replied: "There are still some days before the harvest season, and the food in the city is a little tight."

Frederick nodded. Hanma City is a city mainly focused on maritime trade and shipbuilding. It has many merchants and workers and consumes a lot of food. There is indeed not much leftover food.

The group of officials from Hanma City looked at each other, and the unlucky guy who had just drawn lots came over and asked cautiously: "Grand Duke Wessen, I heard that the Duchy of Wessen is in great need of workers now, why not..."

These refugees are destabilizing factors here, and God knows when they will explode, so it is better to send them away.

It just so happens that the Duchy of Wessen has a tradition of accepting refugees, so the officials of Hanma City came up with a decision that seemed to be a win-win situation.

Frederick just sneered, making those smart guys sweat all of a sudden, and some of them trembled.

Accepting refugees is not a problem. Now there is a lot of land to be reclaimed in the duchy, and new factories are recruiting workers, but you can't agree to these guys so easily, you have to pay them.

This sudden war disrupted his plan, making him a little unhappy, and he had no place to vent his anger.

At this time, Count Pisto sent someone to invite Frederick.

The telegraph station in Hammar can directly contact the telegraph station in Cologne. Now the conference rooms of the two telegraph stations have been requisitioned. Frederick and Count Pistor are in Hammar, while Rudolf and the court officials are in Cologne, which has brought about the first national telegraph meeting in history.

Count Pistor left Cologne just before the envoy of the Kingdom of Danmar arrived for help. The two sides have negotiated many times in the past few days, but failed to reach an agreement.

The court needs more detailed intelligence from the front line to make judgments, and needs to listen to Frederick's opinions.
