Chapter 785 The Strongest Talk
There is no tsar in Russian history who left a warning similar to "water can carry a boat or capsize it." Therefore, successive tsars and Russian rulers until the Red Russian era were not aware of this problem.
George's biggest advantage is that he knows too many versions and knows where the pitfalls are.
The welfare policies introduced during the Werther era were the pit George dug for European and American countries, and the effects have already been achieved.
The British Labor Party came to power under the banner of seeking benefits for ordinary people and built 500,000 houses for poor British families in one go.
If the Conservative and Liberal parties want to regain power, they must introduce more welfare policies than the Labor Party.
The result of competing with each other is to end together.
Yusupova only admired George and was not aware of George's sinister nature.
So when Felix decided to "put people first", he was stopped in time by George.
Felix's "people-oriented" approach is to reform Russia's conscription system.
After the Rivne exercise, some veterans retired and new recruits joined the army. At this time of year, so-called "righteous people" call for the lifting of restrictions on immediate family members of criminal offenders.
The penalties for criminal offenses in Russia are very severe. Not only will you lose many rights, but your immediate family members will also be affected.
Felix heeded calls from "just people" to lift some of these restrictions.
George's reaction was completely opposite to Felix's. Not only did he not relax the restrictions, but he also asked Alpha to investigate the background of these so-called "just people."
There are many unfair things in Russia. Russians in Siberia are working hard just like Russians in St. Petersburg, but the rewards are very different. Why don't these righteous people pay attention to the needs of Siberians and call for the construction of more schools and schools in Siberia? Where's the hospital?
Immediate relatives of criminal offenders are subject to restrictions not only on military conscription, but also on many issues. Not only the first-generation immediate relatives, but also the second generation are also subject to restrictions.
"Is this necessary?"
Felix’s understanding of the sinister nature of human nature is insufficient.
"Yes!"
Guchkov is concise and powerful.
Guchkov is officially hailed as the nemesis of criminals in Russia.
There are also some Russians who believe that Guchkov is a cruel official and George's lackey, and that Guchkov should be hanged.
Compared with Felix, Guchkov has a better understanding of the dangers of human nature.
"The significance of law is not just punishment, but stopping crime is more important. Only when people fully understand the consequences of criminal crimes can crimes be stopped in a real sense."
Guchkov took the initiative to defend George. George's words were truth to Guchkov and were more effective than the Bible.
This is a good comrade.
"So there is something wrong with the position of these people. The reason why they are sensationalizing is not to make Russia better, but to achieve their own ulterior purposes."
Guchkov is not afraid of gossip, and if he were made president, he would be harsher than Felix.
"Fili, what are you worried about?"
George is more concerned about Felix's mental health.
In a way, the president of Russia is more difficult to be the president than the tsar.
If the Tsar messed up, he could blame the Prime Minister.
The president has a responsibility.
Felix spread his hands and smiled bitterly. He finally understood why Werther was so hesitant.
Every policy, while pleasing some Russians, will definitely offend the interests of other Russians.
Felix can now predict that when he steps down, the best results may be mixed.
As powerful as Stolypin was, he also left behind the stain of "Stolypin tie".
No matter how hard Felix tries, he will never be better than Stolypin.
"Don't worry, no matter what, I will always support you."
George reassured Felix that no matter what others discussed, as long as he had George's support, Felix would be as stable as a rock.
"If you support me, you should agree to my request."
Felix was dissatisfied and felt that he did not get enough respect.
George frowned slightly, and Guchkov secretly rejoiced. If Felix continued to act like this, he would soon lose George's trust.
In Russia today, there are actually very few people who can communicate with George, and Felix is one of them. George didn't want to lose Felix as a comrade, so George invited Felix to dinner. With the help of alcohol, some things were easier to solve.
The relationship between Anne and Yusupova is still very good. They often play rounds of mahjong together, complain about their respective husbands, reprimand Alexandra for insisting on celibacy, and discuss where to do charity next week. They have a great time. .
Felix was worried, his face turned rosy after two glasses of wine, but he still didn't say much.
"No matter how good you are, you can't please everyone."
George doesn't care about external opinions. More people criticize George than Felix, such as the one in Copenhagen.
After Asan's death, Maria lived in Copenhagen and rarely returned to Russia.
After the civil war, Maria made a request to the Russian government, hoping that the Russian government would return the private property belonging to Maria to Maria.
Among the lists provided by Maria, some were given to Maria by Asan, while others had nothing to do with Maria and were collected by Russian royal families throughout the ages.
During the civil war, the Russian royal family suffered serious property losses and many valuable jewelry disappeared. Therefore, the Russian government rejected Maria's request, which made Maria very dissatisfied.
The memoir that Maria is writing, scolds George, believes that George should be mainly responsible for the demise of the empire, and wants to completely nail George to the pillar of shame in Russian history.
The Russian government has warned the Kingdom of Denmark not to publish Maria's memoirs, let alone to allow Maria's memoirs to leak out.
Europeans have always been very keen on royal secrets of various countries. If the British get Maria's memoirs, it will have an irreparable impact on the image of George and Russia.
The good news is that some of the booksellers who are currently in contact with Maria are all played by members of Alpha Operations. These booksellers have obtained part of the manuscripts and paid part of the remuneration to Maria.
"If we don't even try, how do we know whether the impact will be as severe as you say?"
Felix didn't know that someone had already tried it in another time and space.
In Northern Europe in another time and space, even the death penalty has been abolished. After killing dozens of underage children from the powerful class, not only were they not sentenced to death, but they also started studying law in prison, preparing to enter politics after being released from prison. A way to continue his revenge. No writer with any incredible imagination would dare to write this kind of plot.
Some people in Russia are also calling for the abolition of the death penalty and the restoration of the relaxed environment of the imperial Russia era.
In the Russian Empire, even assassinating the Tsar would not be punishable by death, so thieves rebelled all over the country.
If Russia abolishes the death penalty, those Cossacks whose lives are in trouble will not know how to behave like monsters.
"If there is something that looks like Xiang and smells like Xiang, do you want to taste it yourself to confirm whether it is Xiang?"
George's words were rough but not rough.
"Uh-"
Anne and Yusupova looked at George with disgust. Although your metaphor is very appropriate, it is also disgusting.
Felix's expression was extremely complicated, as if he was torn between tasting and not tasting.
"What are you hesitating about?"
Yusupova looked unhappy.
"Hahahaha——"
Anne laughed in an incongruous manner.
"Of course I won't, I'm not stupid!"
Felix blushed even more, a little angry.
"You are not stupid, but you are not very smart either!"
Yusupova felt sick just thinking about it.
Felix thought for a moment, shook his head and drank the wine in the glass with a wry smile.
That's right, why bother with these issues? There are more important things waiting for Felix to deal with.
On October 31, after a month of statistics, Western Australia decided to become independent with more than 60% of the votes in favor, and the pressure shifted to Canberra.
Canberra's decision, as expected, rejected Western Australia's application for independence.
Along with this news came the results of the referendums in Kalgoorlie and Coolgardie.
Kalgoorlie and Coolgardie also held referendums after the Western State referendum. With more than 80% of the votes in favor, they decided to secede from Western State and remain in the Australian Federation as independent states.
On November 20, the Western State government sent troops to Kalgoorlie and Coolgardie to quell the rebellion.
At the same time, in compliance with the Australian government's request, Britain mobilized troops from India and East Asia to Western Australia to maintain order.
At a critical moment, Nicholas Jr. suffered a stroke after drinking, and Russia lost its most powerful talker.
