Mediterranean Hegemony Road
Chapter 39, Holding High the Banner of
Time flies, and in 1910, Ferdinand's focus of work returned to domestic construction again.
People take food as their heaven!
In Ferdinand's mind, if any country cannot guarantee the supply of food, it is not far from the day of collapse.
Since Ferdinand took the throne, he has attached great importance to agricultural production, promoted new agricultural technologies, and built water conservancy projects, which has always been the basic national policy of Bulgaria!
More than 20 years have passed, and the water conservancy projects supporting agricultural production in Bulgaria have basically been completed. Now the only development potential is the Greek peninsula.
Frankly speaking, the agricultural development conditions of the Greek peninsula are not as good as those of Bulgaria, but that does not mean that there is no potential to be tapped.
As one of the birthplaces of ancient human civilization, how could the Greek peninsula not be suitable for agricultural production? Ferdinand still clearly remembers that food processing and export in later generations is still one of the pillar industries of Greece!
Oh, the Greek peninsula of this era is actually quite good. George I's level of governance is still powerful, leaving a good foundation.
Ferdinand's purpose now is to bring the Greek peninsula into his hands as soon as possible to enhance the war potential of Bulgaria, so Fei decided to start the Peloponnesian peninsula first!
Peloponnese is located in southern Greece, covering an area of 21,439 square kilometers. There is a plain on the west coast, which is suitable for agricultural production and is the main grain producing area in Greece.
And the Peloponnesian Peninsula was clearly ceded to Bulgaria in the Treaty of Constantinople, which has the lowest influence on the outside world, and now the arms race between the two major alliances is unfolding like fire. , attracted everyone's attention.
In order to fully control the Peloponnese, Ferdinand also made adequate preparations. It is definitely not feasible to directly exile these 200,000 people, but it does not matter, there is still a division of the Bulgarian Army stationed on the peninsula, which is enough to suppress any changes.
"Prime Minister, how are you preparing? When can you start action?" Ferdinand said lightly
Constantine said confidently: "Please rest assured, Your Majesty, everything is ready as planned!"
Ferdinand nodded. In fact, the plan is very simple. The Bulgarian government directly issued an announcement, that is, those who have not obtained legal residency in Bulgaria are restricted to leave Bulgaria within three months.
There's nothing wrong with this, you don't have the right to live on my site, I have the right to let you go, at least it makes sense legally!
If you don't leave, you will naturally have to take coercive measures. Of course, you can be deported if you enter the country illegally. If he dares to resist, then Ferdinand doesn't mind adding more people to the mines in Bulgaria!
Oh, as for whether the inhabitants of the peninsula have a place to go, this is not a question that Ferdinand needs to consider.
However, out of humanitarianism, for those who have nowhere to go, the Bulgarian government is willing to provide free travel expenses to help them immigrate to Syria.
Simply put, it is to tell the Greeks to run quickly if they are able to run, or they will go to that ghost place in Syria!
In addition, there is another way to obtain legal residency. This is simple as long as you have relatives with Bulgarian citizens, get their guarantee, and learn Bulgarian within half a year.
Just stay.
Oh, this is equivalent to saying, hurry up and find someone to marry! The garrison on the island are basically bachelors, as long as you marry your daughter to them, you don't have to leave!
Of course, under normal circumstances, it is almost impossible to bring hateful parties together, so most Greeks still have to move.
If you have relatives and friends on the main island, you can go to seek relatives and rely on friends, but it seems that life there is not very easy. In order to pay off debts, the people on the Greek peninsula are living in dire straits.
There were many Greeks who came from there to ask for a living before. Obviously, this is not a good way for most people to go out.
Needless to say, those with strong assets are of course immigrating directly abroad. Whether it is to European countries, the Americas, or Africa, it is not difficult for them.
Of course, it does not rule out individual idiots who immigrated to the Ottoman Empire. After all, the two sides are close, and the immigration cost is the lowest. For these people, as long as they think about the past, Ferdinand is an absolute farewell, and they directly issue free shipping tickets.
...
Facts have proved that Ferdinand's strategy is still effective. Most of the rich people choose to run away at the first time. Among them, the capitalists run the fastest!
There were also some people who could not see the situation clearly, trying to gather a crowd to make trouble, and then they were quickly suppressed by the Bulgarian army, and then a few thousand miners were added to a certain mine.
Then, most of the remaining ordinary people accepted the humanitarian assistance from Bulgaria and went to Syria in groups to build a beautiful home together.
Oh, and of course there were a lot of hiccups, but it didn't really matter, the end result was always good.
In order to solve the livelihood problem of the immigrants, the newly established Syrian agricultural company in Bulgaria also invited them to reclaim the land for farming, and successfully solved the employment problem of the immigrants!
The above fully shows that Bulgaria is a responsible big country and has done a very good job in the resettlement of refugees!
At that time, it was widely appreciated by international public opinion, and many sociological researchers gave it high praise!
Oh, this is the conclusion that people came to after comparing the actions of several major powers in the colony, and it is not ruled out that they received money!
By the end of 1910, only a mere 8,000 residents of the Peloponnese had obtained legal residency rights, and most of the other residents had accepted humanitarian assistance from Bulgaria to settle in Syria, and only a few chose to emigrate overseas. .
As a price, Bulgaria's humanitarian relief expenditure in 1910 was as high as 80 million levs, and the public relations expenses once exceeded 15 million levs!
In the years to come, the successful experience of the Peloponnes Peninsula will be transplanted by the Bulgarian government to other regions, and then will be imitated by other countries, which will have a profound impact on the world pattern!
...
"Your Majesty, the situation in Portugal is out of control, King Manuel II is powerless to control the situation, the Republican Party is about to lose its hold, and a revolution may break out in the Kingdom of Portugal at any time!" Fuhu
Just as Ferdinand was praising his wit, his good mood was interrupted by a piece of news from the intelligence service that his unfortunate nephew seemed to be doomed!
Although Ferdinand didn't have much affection for this cheap nephew, he still didn't want the Kingdom of Portugal to change.
Ferdinand now has the feeling that iron is not steel. Compared with parallel time and space, there are still people who support him in this plane, but he still does nothing and let the Republican Party become bigger!
A good hand was just wasted by him! However, Ferdinand still believes that the Republican Party still dares to go too far. At least they have to take into account the international influence in expelling Manuel II. After all, the United Kingdom and Bulgaria have made clear statements before.
"Do you know the plan of the Republicans? Are they going to end the monarchy directly, or leave a rubber stamp?" Ferdinand asked, suppressing his dissatisfaction.
Fuhu was taken aback for a moment, and then replied: "The Republican Party is still arguing over this issue. They have too many internal factions, and it is difficult to unify their opinions in a short time, otherwise they would have launched it now!"
Ferdinand nodded, so that's right, if there is no problem within the Portuguese Republican Party, how did they have a civil war in parallel time and space?
However, he looked down on Manuel II's ability a little bit. A bunch of messy political parties could join hands to deal with him as a king. It is conceivable how unpopular he is!
It doesn't look like he's done anything heinous. As soon as he succeeded to the throne, he was fooled and gave up most of his rights and handed it over to the cabinet.
Oh, the cabinet of the Kingdom of Portugal seems to be a little too diligent, but these are the results of their own infighting!
These also need the king to be responsible?
Ferdinand couldn't figure it out, so he just didn't think about it, anyway, Manuel II's pot was set on his back.
Now the Portuguese people are very dissatisfied with the government. With the integrity of politicians, how could they take the initiative to take responsibility?
And Manuel II didn't even do a good job of throwing the blame. It can be said that this young king was driven by ducks on the shelves, and he did not inherit the core inheritance of Ferdinand's lineage at all!
Ferdinand finally decided to pay close attention to the development of the situation in the Kingdom of Portugal, but did not interfere for the time being!
