Chapter 2380: Plaintiff and Defendant One

"Your Excellency, don't you think that we have just reached an agreement with the Kaiser to work out a plan to deal with Parliamentary Prussia. Today we see that the representatives of the parliamentary faction are a bit too violent?" Crown Prince Christian of Saxony looked a little bit on the face. Said embarrassingly to the duke sitting next to him.

The crown prince believes that Ruprecht decided to tell him the day after meeting with the Kaiser to give him a good night’s sleep! Although I have been mentally prepared, I still feel very awkward after I have determined that the people I want to meet are Hassy of the Social Democratic centrist and Buhler who originally belonged to the right wing! How to describe it? I always feel that Ruprecht is on both sides!

"What's wrong? Do you remember what the Imperial Marshal told you? Some people can be hated, but you must also associate with them. What's more, this time, we are not so annoying people." Prince Albrecht said with a smile. This time, the representatives of the two kingdoms were a bit low-key. They were sitting in the same car. Of course, there were still many convoys. After all, even in the name of the Duke of Württemberg, when Albrecht needed to visit At the time of the Imperial Marshal, the necessary pomp was still necessary.

"But we have reached a unified intention with the Kaiser. We can't change it anymore?" Crown Prince Christian said.

"Of course, the credibility of Crown Prince Ruprecht is still good, and the agreement with the Kaiser will be fulfilled according to the agreement. What we said to them is another matter." The Duke said.

"Don't they have any opinions on this agreement?" Christian asked.

"What about opinions? The Imperial Marshal once used a very apt metaphor to describe the relationship between the parliamentarians and us now, that is, I am a knife and he is a fish! They have no right to refuse, and in the agreement we reached with the Kaiser In China, the parliamentary faction is not without a chance to comeback!" said the Duke.

"I do not understand."

"First of all, we do agree that the Kaiser will be in charge of the next imperial government, but the imperial government has only one term. What about the next next? This time, the parliamentary faction has no chance, so there may be no possibility of a comeback in the future. On the issue of compensation, we have also tried our best to safeguard the interests of the parliamentarians. That is to say, from the perspective of development, the parliamentarians will not suffer too much loss. What about the Prussian parliament? Such an outbreak of internal conflicts It is not necessarily all bad things, because after all, we have made the high-level parliamentarians aware of their position and made them more inclined to the middle and low-level in future policy making. In this way, the efficiency of the parliamentary group will be higher and the contradictions will also be higher. It will be less. In the long run, it's really hard to say which of the two Prussias is stronger!" Albrecht explained patiently to Christian.

Although Duke Albrecht, as a hereditary aristocracy, dislikes the rising bourgeoisie, he has to admit that the money-supremacists are indeed better than the Junkers in many areas. Prussia, the parliament controlled by these people, will be more flexible in terms of economic policy. Over time, which of the two Prussias will develop better, I really can’t tell!

If Ruprecht’s negotiations with the Kaiser represent Bavaria’s demands on the empire’s central and political level, then on the economic side, Ruprecht needs to negotiate with the parliament and the power behind them. Half of the country's problems are economic problems! In the field of economic cooperation, the two sides have too many things to discuss. Of course, the crown prince will also talk to them about the positioning of the future parliament of Prussia.

"If it is a simple issue of state-to-state economic cooperation, don't we need to talk about it in person?" Crown Prince Christian said.

"Of course we don’t need to talk about this kind of trivial matter. We are discussing the issue of the distribution of rights and interests in the colonies. Don’t forget that the compensation in Britain and France is only a small part of the benefits we obtained in the war. The benefits of the colonies are equally huge. All British colonies and vassal states in Africa are included in the sphere of influence of the empire, and the French Madagascar is also the spoils of the empire. And these are not the same as the funds that can be directly allocated. These treasures need to be developed and operated to give full play to their power. Role." The Duke said.

"Isn't the colony in charge of the Imperial Colony Bureau?" the crown prince asked.

"It was like this before, but not anymore. After all, the British colony we have taken over has been developed by the British for a long time. There are a large number of industrial and mining enterprises. It is impossible to nationalize these things directly. The imperial government actually The above is just a coordination and management organization. In the end, these benefits still have to be distributed among the various states, but some of the benefits have to be handed over to the imperial government as funds." Duke Albrecht said.

"I thought the Kaiser would use the convenience of controlling the government to put everything into the pocket of the Kingdom of Prussia." The crown prince said somewhat unexpectedly.

"This is a trapEven if it was the old Prussia before, it is absolutely impossible to eat all the colonial interests. If anyone dares to swallow it alone, then it will definitely become a target. But now, Whether it is the Kaiser, the parliamentarians or us in South Germany, we all recognize this problem, so we have maintained a tacit understanding with each other and no one takes action. However, the British have already begun to hand over the colonies, and the distribution of these things will be sooner or later. And now, What we need is not to **** a certain mine, but to formulate a distribution rule, a rule that takes into account fairness and efficiency at the same time!" said Duke Albrecht.

"I feel that His Highness Ruprecht is more concerned with the issue of the Empire than the Kaiser." Christian said thoughtfully.

"This is normal. The Kaiser’s abilities are limited, so Ruprecht has to take care and remember one sentence, this is the norm for our future actions, that is, the interests of the empire come first in everything. Only then can it be the interests of the kingdom. We are detached from all the classes and groups within the empire. We represent the interests of the country. Don’t easily tie ourselves to a certain class or group. In that case, they will cover our eyes and let We lose our way and eventually lose power. The most fundamental reason why we are able to hold power is that most people in the empire trust us and believe that under our leadership the empire will develop better and the people will also benefit. Only in this way, we are the king!" Duke Albrecht said word by word, as if he wanted the latter to engrave this sentence in his heart!
