Conquer the Dawn of Heaven
Vol 6 Chapter 145: Capital world
Pig Alexandria leaned on the backrest of the bed purposely filled with soft feathers, looking at the cabbage that had just been arched by himself, with a smile on his face.
The daughter has been taken away by the nurse, and Shell is also staying downstairs instead of outside the door. There are only two of them on the second floor.
Lucrezia, who was asleep, moved and then woke up gradually.
At first she looked around with some doubt, and finally her slack eyes condensed on Alexander's face.
"You really are back."
This is an affirmative sentence, it seems that at this time she was really sure that the people around her were real, not fantasy.
"I am back."
Alexander responded. He suddenly felt that many words were superfluous at this time. Looking at Lucrezia, who leaned to the side and seemed content to see him appear, he suddenly felt that he was the one who owed the most among these women. This woman.
In Alexander ’s mind, whether it ’s historical or present, Lukrezija is actually simple. Perhaps in the eyes of many people, her lover because of the too wonderful and rich life and too many dazzling proofs shows how depraved this woman is. But in fact, she is just a woman eager to be loved.
Her world is actually very simple, just want to love and be loved, but two consecutive marriages only make her a political tool and a victim of father and brother. She longs for a stable and sweet home, but Alexander The Sixth Father and Son ruthlessly took away these beautiful longings from her, whether it was just the obligation to marry Giovanni Sforza, or the two feelings of happiness with Alfonso of Billy Shelley In the end, she couldn't get rid of the ruthless destruction of the Pope's father and son to satisfy their purpose.
So she began to use unruly to fill her hurt and become full of hearts, and use the short joy from the lovers to cover up the fear of losing her people at any time until she finally had the opportunity to completely get rid of her father and brother. The third time Marriage's control got married, it finally ended the fate of being the political bargaining chip of Alexander VI's father and son.
All this is the history of Lucrezia Borgia.
And now, although she still experienced an unfortunate marriage with Giovanni Sforza, there have been no more rumors with Pedro Cardron in her life, and no longer It has nothing to do with Alfonso, Duke of Billy Shelly. She is now the mother of the Duchess of Pisa and a lover beside Alexander.
Looking at the woman in front of him, Alexander leaned in her ear and whispered, "You don't have to be afraid of anything anymore, you will continue to live happily in Pisa, and my daughter will become an admiring duchess. "
Lucrezia didn't listen silently, then twisted her head, curled up beside Alexander like a small animal, closed her eyes again and slept lightly.
The news of Alexander's sudden appearance in Pisa spread quickly in the city. The local nobles and important figures of the chamber of commerce immediately rushed to the Lucrezia Palace. Although the weather was very cold, everyone's heart was warm. Yes, when they met, everyone saw a kind of unspoken look on the faces of others.
Rome, Naples, Balkans, and now Lombardy, who has just heard about some situations, Alexander showed his followers time and time again to see his lack of victory and the glory of creation, which made these originally speculative or passive, Even those who were forced to follow him seemed to see some hope.
In return, the trade union took advantage of the opportunity to use gold coins, swords and cannons to open the gates of areas that were not willing to accept them, and those who actively joined the trade area were gathered by the nobles. The huge wealth is growing wildly under the leadership of the trade union.
But human greed is endless, and more wealth will only lead to greater greed. Their eyes are turned to those places that refuse to accept trade unions. For them, those places are lambs to be slaughtered, and they The butcher holding a butcher knife.
In front of the huge temptation, no one can stop them from making profits, no matter who they are. If someone tries to stand up to stop them, they will be crushed into powder by ruthless!
Now Alexander has used his series of victories to prove the huge potential of the trade union, which makes those nobles and businessmen willing to pay more money to support the young count in his military and political adventures.
Only this time, these people are no longer satisfied with only getting enough money in return.
Alexander also knew that the pizza dignitaries were waiting for him, so he did n’t disturb the tired Lucrezia, quietly went outside, stepped on the soft carpet and walked across the corridor, standing on the stairs of the second floor, he saw the Sher the guard speaks.
"How many people are here?" Alexander asked softly.
"A lot of lords," Schell responded habitually, seeing the soft gestures made by Alexander, and quickly lowered his voice and said, "It seems that the nobles and rich people all over the city have come. I will meet them at the Duke ’s Palace, and now everyone has left except for a few who seem stubborn and refuse to leave. "
Alexander nodded, and he could guess who the few so-called refused to leave were, and indeed those people he wanted to see.
The current chief member of the Pisa Parliament is a tall, fat man. Alexander stood with him and felt as if he was facing a standing brown bear.
Such a person should have appeared on the battlefield rather than quarreling with others in the parliament, but the chief congressman was very satisfied with his current status.
Immediately after the announcement of the crowning of the Duke of Pisa, the Parliament also announced that it would no longer use the term "speaker", but instead called the "chief congressman."
This change made many Pizzars realize how cruel the restoration of the degenerate monarchy was in Pisa. Since then, the members of the parliament have no leaders. Even the chief parliamentarian is only a part of the parliament instead of the parliamentary leader. The possibility that the members of the parliament can fight the court with the royal chamber, and then the parliament can only serve as the royal megaphone.
This is indeed a very uncomfortable result. At the beginning, there was strong opposition in the Pisa Parliament. Some people worried that an overly strong monarchy would cause Pisa to be completely under the rule of the monarch and there is no guarantee. The rights of the people, but in the face of the powerful oppression of the Montina army, the Pisa Parliament finally made a compromise.
But now, although this kind of opposition still exists in the parliament, it is much smaller than it was at the time. Even this argument is becoming more and more difficult to maintain in the Pisa Parliament.
This is because, as the dignitaries of Pizza, almost all of these people have gotten the sweetness from the trade union.
"Adult, we know that you are very hard along the way and sorry to disturb your rest, but things are urgent so we can only disturb you directly."
Even if the chief councilor sat down, he gave a kind of condescending appearance to make Alexander sitting opposite him a little helpless. He could only wave his hand to show that he did not mind, and then asked the chief councilor to continue.
"That's it. Someone in Pisa made a proposal to ask His Royal Highness the Duke to reconsider her title," the chief councilor said in a tone that says "It doesn't matter to me, I just bring a word", and it seems a little helpless. Shrug his shoulders like two hills. "Many people think that the titles of His Royal Highness the Duke of Pisa and the Protector of Florence are inappropriate, but they should be changed to the Duke and Protector of Pisa and Florence. Of course, this is just a proposal. In the end The decision is up to you and His Royal Highness. "
The Duke and protector of Pisa and Florence seem to be in different orders, but the actual meaning is very different.
For the first time, the Pisa tried to legalize and justify Florence ’s rule.
Alexander blinked his eyes, and his eyes fell on the face of the Chief Member who looked like he was full of innocent expressions. From this innocent face that seemed to be only involved in this matter by helplessness, it was completely invisible. In fact, this proposal is exactly The person in front of him actively promoted, and even according to Uliu's report, just to allow this proposal to enter the issue process in parliament, the chief member of the parliament spent a large sum of money to bribe every member of the parliament he could catch.
The reason why he will spare no effort to promote this bill is that the chief parliamentarian is the largest wool merchant in Pisa, and Florence has the largest wool processing workshop group in Tuscany.
This is an ambitious person who has more energy and courage to realize his ambitions.
Alexander commented on this chief congressman in his heart.
In addition to a lot of brilliant artistic masterpieces, the Medici family's years of operation in Florence left a huge coveted wool processing system.
At the largest scale, up to thousands of workers working at the same time plus wool workshops that never swayed above, the steaming mist with the peculiar smell of wool is proof of Florence's once glory.
Even if the Medici family was expelled from Florence later, and Savonarola was just a saint-like ruler who focused on the spiritual world but defied the enjoyment of reality, encountered the scale of the fragile and decaying Florence wool processing industry It is still not comparable to other cities.
With the expansion of the trade union in the northern German city-state, wool that was originally cheaper than other places was continuously transported from the north through Pisa to southern Europe. At this time, the large wool workshop in Florence becomes even more important.
Alexander looked at the chief councillor opposite with interest. He knew that this kind of thing would happen sooner or later, but he didn't expect it to come so fast.
Countless times in history have proved that when capital and politics are combined, capital will become a stepping stone to politics, but when it is strong enough, capital will try to get rid of its exploited identity and in turn try to control politics.
Because of this, in the history when the Fugger family owned most of the claims of the Holy Roman Empire many years later, the emperor Charles V at that time did not remember the contribution made by the Fugger family for them over the years, but intensified. The madness of squeezes out the wealth of this family in order to stabilize the emperor throne of the Habsburg family.
The person in front of him seems to be trying to touch something that is taboo to any ruler.
Although his proposal can be said to provide the earliest reason for the annexation of Florence, Alexander will not appreciate him for this.
It is impossible to thank him.
Alexander looked quietly at the chief congressman until the congressman seemed to perceive the depression in the atmosphere.
"Chief Member, I am very grateful for what you have done for the Duchess of Estrelice. I have n’t even forgotten that you were one of the earliest people who publicly expressed support for my daughter to become the Duke of Pisa," Alexander nodded to the opposite MP, looking at the barely still calmness of the MP, and then shook his head gently, showing a little helplessness on his face, "but I do n’t understand why you are making such a proposal, you must know this proposal. It is very inappropriate. As a friend of the Gometic family, I cannot accept such a proposal. "
"But you are also the father of His Royal Highness, and also the Regent of Pisa. No matter what identity you speak from, you are obliged to seek the benefits for your Highness." The Chief Member is still unwilling, he feels that he actually understands What the Earl thought about it, his deductions and explanations are actually just excuses for more reasonable reasons. The Chief MP thinks he can meet Alexander's needs.
He began to find and provide all kinds of excuses for the annexation of Naples, or even simply unsuccessful, even in the early years of Rome, even the Pisa who had served briefly as a protector in Florence The parliamentarian was very excited and said, "If you can be more active, I can guarantee that the vast majority of businessmen in Pisa are willing to pay for your military operations. With the strength of the Montina army, we all know that this will be a A war without suspense ... "
"No, this is just a simple war for money," Alexander interrupted the chief congressman's words. "This kind of war is not in my interest."
Talking about here, Alexander's eyes fell on the chief congressman's face.
"I know that you have spent a lot of energy to get Florentine's wool workshop, and even spend a lot of money to convince others to support your proposal. This is because you feel that it can let you in the wool market. Profitable, but you have forgotten that your family's interests are insignificant in front of the entire trade union. If I want to wage a war, it will definitely be related to the interests of the whole union. Before this huge interest, everyone Everything must make way for it, which also includes your worthless wool workshop, okay? "
The chief congressman stared at Alexander in a daze. Although he understood every word, he still could not believe that the Alexander Conference threatened him so directly.
The chief congressman dared to stir up a public opinion attempting to annex Florence in Pisa. There is a reason. In addition to being one of the most influential rich merchants in Pisa, there is also a deep feeling that the pizzeria is no longer satisfied with only earning locally The money of those foreign merchants, their appetite is getting bigger and bigger, and their vision is getting higher and higher. With the gradual change of the status of primary and secondary with Florence, the Pizza ’s inner fear and fear of Florence has now evolved into With a stronger desire to conquer, the more worried that Florence will rise again in the heart, the more the desire to demolish or even conquer that city has made many pizzas almost enchanted.
It is this extreme sentiment that permeated the Pisa that made the chief councilor see the opportunity to annex the Florence wool processing industry through this opportunity, and he also firmly believed that this should also be Alexander ’s ambition, so if he was willing to help in this matter Alexander fulfilled his wish, so for him and his family, it would be a miracle like the grace of God.
But now Alexander ’s reaction was completely beyond his expectation. The Chief Member ’s face showed embarrassment, disappointment, and a hint of anger and unwillingness.
Seeing the congressman's apparently unwillingness, Alexander thought about it slightly and waved his hand slightly to signal the congressman to get closer.
"Listen to MPs, I know you are eager to get help from me, and I will not let you down, but you must first do what I intend to do whatever you do, because do n’t forget that you can have today because of self It ’s me who created the alliance, so all you can do is to get your due benefits under the rules of the alliance. If you ca n’t understand this, I promise you will soon find not only your business Abandoned outside the FTA, you and your family will not be able to survive in Pisa, you will lose everything because of your reputation, and this is just the beginning for you, what will happen next Try to guess for yourself. "
The beads of sweat finally appeared on the foreman of the chief congressman, and he knew that Alexander was not threatening but telling him the fact that if he was really removed from the trade union, it would be clear what was waiting for him.
That would be a terrible result that is more unacceptable than bankruptcy.
"Do you know what you should do?" Alexander looked up slightly and stood in front of him. Although he was unusually tall, he seemed so isolated and helpless at this time.
"Adult, I think I know what to do." The chief councillor's rough cheeks shuddered a few times before finally speaking. His tone no longer had the kind of vigour that he had before, nor was he suppressed because of unwillingness. Emotions, some only show weakness and helplessness and helplessness "I will withdraw my proposal to the Pisa Parliament, and then I will ask His Royal Highness the Duke to allow me to resign from the role of chief member of Parliament."
Looking at the man who fell from the peak to the valley almost instantly, his face was full of lost and confused men. Alexander showed no trace of sympathy because he knew that when this person stood in front of him and spoke, he was already thinking about himself. The decision was made at what price.
Alexandria knows better than anyone else, this meeting at the Lucrezia residence ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ is actually a competition between capital and power, but this person is so smug because of the growth of his own wealth. Forgetting the most important point, Alexander is not like other nobles who must not borrow heavily to achieve their goals. As the founder of the FTA, he himself is the biggest beneficiary of this behemoth.
Looking at the former chief congressman who was hobbled in the cold eyes of several waiting companions, Alexander groaned a little, and then waved his hand to signal that those congressmen who stayed could retreat.
He didn't continue to ask about the intentions of those people. Although he can be sure that these people actually have the same purpose as the former chief congressman, he did not want to delve into everyone.
Capital seeks profit, and in fact, as the largest capitalist in the trade union, Alexander knows better than any of them that the trade union must continue to expand outwards in order to maintain this vigorous vitality.
The Chief Member is actually right. Alexander at this time was eager for a war that would bring great benefits to the trade union.
Hearing the movement upstairs, Alexander looked up and saw Lucrezia standing at the stairs and looking at him.
He tilted his head slightly, then looked at Lucrezia and laughed.
"What are you laughing at?" Lucrezia cleverly asked nothing about the chief congressman.
"I'm looking at your little head," Alexander said, reaching out to Lucrezia who had already walked down the stairs. When she reached the last staircase, Alexander stopped her and made him stand just as high as himself. Then, he reached out and stroked Lucrezia ’s head with thick hair. “I ’m thinking, what kind of crown is good for such a beautiful little head.”
