Chapter 9: Chapter 9 build people set
Countless cases from previous generations told Franz that you don't need to stand in the same position with the majority, at least you want them to think that you are standing with them. Vertex
now Franz is doing so, the reform is the mainstream of Austria, he naturally would like to release a signal to the outside world, he is pro-reform.
At this time, the strength of the Austrian conservatives should not be underestimated. The Vienna court is the home of the conservatives. Franz can't betray his class.
Age is the best weapon at this time. In the eyes of the reformists, he supports reform. This is enough. No one wants a 16-year-old boy to dominate the Austrian reform.
Franz did not express his opinion on specific reforms. In the eyes of conservatives, he is a steady performance. Everyone knows that Austria must carry out reforms, but how to reform is a matter of arguing.
As the imperial prince of the empire, Franz supports this reform without any problems. If you want to throw out your reform plan in a stupid way, it is estimated that you will be handed over.
In contrast, Franz is concerned about the living conditions of the people at the bottom, it is nothing. A benevolent king is good for everyone.
Before the mystery was revealed, neither the capitalist nor the nobility would have to mind Franz's prestige in the folks. No one knew that he was a sword.
Bowenfeld was convinced by Franz, or was convinced by reality, and there was nothing wrong with doing this young Dagong.
It would be better if you could influence Grand Duke Franz and let him accept his own ideas.
His intentions, Franz, are naturally clear, but they are not in mind. Now he just needs to use Bowenfeld's influence to start the newspaper in the shortest possible time.
The question of Austrian political reform is still not to be taken care of by them. Franz has already had a preliminary plan in mind, and before the implementation of this plan, the power of the bourgeoisie and the aristocratic class must be weakened.
Things that raise the status of a capitalist will never appear in his reforms.
"Capital has no borders," Franz still heard.
Capitalists are always fed, and as long as the interests are right, the class that can be betrayed in minutes, Franz can not let them become the pillars of the country.
Austria's special national conditions have determined that this reform must take into account the interests of the vast majority of the underlying people, in order to truly integrate the country together, which will make sacrifices for the nobility and the bourgeoisie.
That is to say, in this special period, the contradictions between the aristocratic class and the bourgeoisie have intensified, and Franz has a chance to succeed.
The more he knows about this country, the more Franz is certain that the empire has been undercurrent.
In 1846, the German region suffered from food shortages and Austria was affected.
It is reasonable to say that the Austrian Empire was originally the most important grain exporter in Europe, and there was a large Hungarian plain. The impact of grain production was not significant.
However, the reality is exactly the opposite. For their own benefit, the capitalists over-hyped the food shortage, raising the price of food on the market, and at the same time driving down the price of grain purchases in Hungary, because the local grain harvest.
By the beginning of 1847, the price of food in the market in Vienna had risen by 54%, and ordinary Viennese citizens have already felt the pressure of survival.
Behind the capitalists' manipulation of food prices, there are still a large number of peasants from bankruptcy, and even some nobles have suffered heavy losses. The Hungarian region has begun to undercurrent.
Recently, Franz discovered that there are more and more foreigners in Vienna. I don't even think he knows that these people are mostly bankrupt farmers who have to enter the city in order to survive.
Some of them may still be serfs in the hands of the nobility, but now, the population of Austria has already exceeded 30 million, and the nobility is not lacking serfs, so it has relaxed its control.
Although serfs are also wealth, they also want to eat. For the nobility, as long as the number is similar, it can guarantee the completion of production tasks. Too many serfs are also a burden.
The success of the liberation of serfs in European countries does not mean that it is so simple, but more is the emergence of machinery, so that the nobility does not need so many people, such as: power harvesters.
In the middle and late 19th century, the aristocratic demand for labor fell, and the boycott of serfdom was not so strong. Most of the enlightened aristocrats wanted to use the release of serfs in exchange for a state compensation.
Prime Minister Metterni promoted the abolition movement in Austria. The reason why the aristocrats resisted was that the bid was too low. On this issue, Franz supported the prime minister.
Austria's fiscal is not rich, unable to pay high compensation, and it is inevitable to lower the compensation price.
However, this problem is not unsolvable. For example, in the taxation, the abolition of aristocratic concessions is granted. For example, sacrificing the interests of capitalists, the government intervenes in the market to formulate a grain protection price to protect everyone's interests.
As long as the interests are right, there is no contradiction that cannot be resolved. Only these ideas, Franz will not come out now, he is also prepared to exchange interest with the Prime Minister Mettern.
On January 11, 1847, Franz's smashing newspaper "We Want Bread, We Want Cheese" was officially published.
He personally sang a piece of "Caring for the bottom of the people, creating a beautiful Austria" as a pioneering work.
Undoubtedly, this is an out-and-out chicken soup. The article emphasizes the role of the people at the bottom of the country in a large amount of space. It clearly states that the Austrian Empire will be better only if it meets the basic needs of the people at the bottom.
The effect is naturally unquestionable. Chicken Tang Wen appeared for the first time, and many people were fooled.
The nobility and the capitalists thought that Franz was a crowned emperor, and the idle egg hurts to worry about the lives of the people, but such emperors do not exclude them.
The benevolent emperor is always stronger than the tyrant, and everyone does not have to carry his head to work.
The influence of the people at the bottom of the population is great. A royal reserve who cares about their living conditions is completely standard for Renjun!
The only pity is that the Crown Prince is too young to have a political voice. If it becomes an emperor, then it would be fine.
...
"Unfortunately!"
Franz sighed secretly. If there is a group of people under the hand to guide the public opinion across the country, then the impact will be even greater.
It is not that Franz did not send people to guide the public opinion. The problem is that there are not many people in his hands, his influence is limited to Vienna, and other places only slowly spread.
