Bulgarian Empire

The birth of the little guy brought not only joy to Ferdinand, but also a lot of troubles!

A name can make Ferdinand scratch his head. The name is not random, and he also endows it with strong political significance.

Whether to adopt the German style, the Russian style, or even the local Bulgarian style will affect the direction of the Bulgarian political arena, and Ferdinand needs to weigh the pros and cons.

If names can handle it, religion is more of a headache. Ferdinand is a Catholic, but Bulgaria's main belief is Orthodox, which religion the little guy converts to is the real trouble!

If you choose Catholicism, the people of the Orthodox Church will be dissatisfied; if you choose the Orthodox Church, the Catholics will be dissatisfied. It is estimated that many people will doubt the piety of Ferdinand's faith!

Even though it is no longer the Middle Ages, religious beliefs still occupy a very important position in Europe.

For Ferdinand, being suspected of impiety is a very serious political crisis. Even if it does not shake his throne, the accusations from all parties are enough for him to drink a pot!

The "Ferdinand" in history suffered in this regard, because of the belief of his son, Boris III, he directly broke up with his uncle Ferrantz-Joseph I, and had a relationship with a group of relatives and friends. face off!

Forced to do nothing, Ferdinand had no choice but to drag the word and leave it to the little guy to make a decision. Let the little guy have a similar ritual of grasping the week and choose his own belief. For this reason, his mother and wife also launched Started a battle of baby faith!

There is no way that it is still the 9th century, and the atmosphere of religious belief in the European continent is still very strong, and believers are everywhere.

You can tell by the reaction of your mother and wife. They have been deadlocked over the issue of the baby's belief. Ferdinand went to mediate, and the two jointly criticized him for being impious!

For this reason, Ferdinand had to choose to make peace with each other. Although many people were dissatisfied with this, Ferdinand blocked everyone's mouths on the grounds of "let God choose".

Although all parties are dissatisfied, they can all accept it. After all, is it God's choice? As a believer in God, you will not question God's decision!

This is also because Ferdinand's current status has been consolidated, otherwise, as in history, he would have to convert the little guy to the Orthodox Church once, in order to gain the support of a larger number of Orthodox Christians!

Compared with the religious name, it is much simpler. Ferdinand directly named him after himself, called Ferdinand Little, which means inheriting his family business, which is equivalent to announcing the little guy as the crown prince to the outside world. .

Anyway, the little guy is also his eldest son. According to the European tradition, under normal circumstances, the little guy's crown must be worn.

This time it was much better, at least it was unanimously approved by the two hostesses in the family. After all, this kind of thing happened many times in European royal families!

The first generation, the second generation... More than a dozen generations, there are many crowns that have continued in this way, and there is nothing unacceptable for one more Ferdinand.

After finalizing two major events, Ferdinand ran away under the murderous eyes of his wife and mother. He took a detour for several days, and even less frequently went to see the little guy.

In order to ease the awkward atmosphere, Ferdinand decided to conduct a national tour. In fact, he had this plan last year, but considering the instability in various places, he pressed the time until now.

In name, he was touring the whole country, but in fact Ferdinand could only travel to a limited number of places, at least before the railway was opened to traffic, it was impossible for him to travel all over the country.

Otherwise, from now until the next century, it is estimated that he will still be on the way.

From Sofia, go along the Isker River to Pleven, then take the train to Silistra, then to Dobro, and then take a boat along the Black Sea all the way to Constantinople.

Then depart from Constantinople, go to Sliven via Edinar, and return to Sofia via Plovdiv.

Obviously, this is only the first stage of Ferdinand's national tour. Except for Constantinople, most of the rest of the time circled around the original boundary of Bulgaria.

..

This is in line with Ferdinand's fear of death. If Constantinople hadn't been too politically significant, he wouldn't have planned to go there.

The purpose of this parade is to inspect the industrial exhibitions across the country. Constantinople has suffered heavy losses in the war, and now there is a ghost industry.

There are many industrial remnants in the ruins, but I don't know how long it will take to recover. However, the industries outside the city have been preserved, but unfortunately most of them are traditional handicrafts, and are now undergoing industrial upgrading.

...

In the golden autumn of October, the sky is blue, cool and comfortable. The wild flowers on the side of the road sway with the wind, seeming to tell pedestrians something.

At this time, Ferdinand set off from Sofia again and started his second national tour. Unlike the last trip, Bulgaria's industry had just started, and it was almost blank.

At this time, industrial and agricultural exhibitions across Bulgaria have begun to take shape. Water conservancy projects are blooming in all directions, the road network is criss-crossing, and factories are rising from the ground. It is a thriving color.

Located on the banks of the Tuchenishka River in the Danube Plain, Pleven is one of the rich agricultural centers of Bulgaria. At the same time, industries such as textiles, ceramics, cement, tobacco, and canned food have also developed in recent years.

It is one of the investment priorities of Bulgaria's "Second Five-Year Plan", and it is also the first stop of Ferdinand's inspection.

In terms of quantity, the total industrial investment in Preven Prefecture is as high as more than 70 million levs, which has exceeded the total industrial volume of the Kingdom of Montenegro at this time, and occupies a very important position in Bulgaria's industrial system.

Looking at the rows of tall chimneys, which discharge thick black smoke into the sky, it is very inconsistent with the endless wheat fields around.

Ferdinand felt an indescribably weird feeling, a bit like inspecting unqualified black factories in villages and towns.

However, this is the 9th century, and these things that even small township enterprises will be eliminated in later generations are the most advanced productive forces of our time.

From time to time, there are officials who introduce to Ferdinand that XX has adopted advanced French technology, or adopted advanced German technology, and some have adopted advanced British technology...

Even if Fei couldn't see where these Dongdong advanced, he still answered with his signature smile, which made the officials who introduced him excited!

Well, the so-called pretending to slap his face, he has no chance to learn. Every place Ferdinand went to was notified in advance, and the security measures did not know how many floors there were inside and outside.

If you want to see the life of the people, forget it, Ferdinand has always been very timid. History has told him that TV dramas are all deceitful, and those who use micro-services to conduct private interviews among the public will die miserably in the end!

Especially in the era of hot weapons, no matter how high his prestige in Bulgaria is, there is never a shortage of people who want to assassinate the king.

Not to mention, the fuse of the First World War in history was the unlucky Crown Prince of Austria-Hungary, who wanted to play close to the people? Not only flowers and applause greeted him, but also flying bullets!

Before him, King Alexander I of Serbia and King George I of Greece were all typical examples of over-pretending, and taught the world a lesson with blood education!

A good king was wrong, but he went to go deep into the people. As a result, they all met God in advance.

This is not as simple as it is said in the history books. Basically, as long as a king does not kill himself, the possibility of being successfully assassinated is very small.

Just like when Ferdinand traveled, martial law was imposed for several miles around, and strangers were kept away from within a few hundred meters. If an assassin can still break in, it will definitely be fatal!

As for the actual situation, Ferdinand had already known it clearly through various channels, so he came out to see for himself, just to confirm it again, or to urge the officials to work harder.

Along the way, Ferdinand didn't encounter any abnormal situations, and there were vibrant scenes everywhere.

Other things can be faked, but the farmland on both sides of the road can never be faked.

What's more, Ferdinand's trip was also suddenly scheduled, and the places he visited were only notified two or three days in advance. Under the conditions at the time, the local government could at most carry out a general cleaning, and it was estimated that it could do nothing else.

Ferdinand's good mood did not stop until Constantinople. At this time, it should be more accurate to describe this international metropolis as ruins!

Broken walls and remnants, the magnificent high-rise buildings of the past fell into the dust, and the once glorious civilization was destroyed in its collapse!

At this time, there are still a large group of workers working hard, cleaning up the ruins, and working hard to rebuild the city.

Destruction is also the beginning of new life. Many historic cities were destroyed in the flames of war. At this moment, Ferdinand has decided to rebuild this ancient city. Of course, this is a matter of the future, and now its role is more of a military port!

Ferdinand did not stay long in Constantinople, and left in a hurry after meeting with the top officials of the Russian Black Sea Fleet.

Now this is still the territory of the Russians. Since it was decided to hand it over to Russia as a military port, Ferdinand did it thoroughly and did not even send city management personnel.

So now the important task of rebuilding Constantinople falls on the Russians. It seems that they are willing to accept this burden. Apart from being a little less efficient, they are still doing very well.

After leaving Constantinople, Ferdinand once again set foot in the new area of ​​Sliven. This newly rising city was established entirely under the promotion of Ferdinand.

All the industries in the city are inseparable from Ferdinand. Whether it is real estate or property, they are all his industries.

Franz introduced happily: "Your Majesty, since the establishment of the Sliven Open District, Zhanxun has now become the top ten metropolises in Bulgaria.

Now there are more than 230 large and small enterprises in the city, more than 120 factories of various types, employing more than 200,000 workers.

The rose industry chain built by our rose group alone has 13 supporting factories and more than 80,000 workers, covering all the processes from rose planting to processing into finished products and pushing them to the market!

..."

At this time, Franz had been appointed as the mayor of the open district, and he was the only person in Bulgaria who served as a city manager as a businessman.

Of course, the most important thing is that he is Ferdinand's retainer, otherwise it would be impossible to develop across borders like this!

Ferdinand said lightly: "Your Songlai's health care products are good, and the queen mother and queen like them very much!"

Directly using the highest quality rose essential oil as a health care product, such a luxurious thing, only Ferdinand can do it, and there is no fake, so the effect can be bad?

You must know that the price of rose essential oil in the world is not low. Just think about the highest quality rose essential oil, which requires at least dozens of tons of the highest quality rose petals per kilogram to be extracted, and you will know!

The international price of this thing also starts at thousands of pounds, and the supply is in short supply. Even though Bulgaria is the largest producer of rose essential oil in the world, the high-quality rose essential oil produced does not weigh dozens of catties!

Of course, all the rose essential oils on the market are ordinary rose essential oils, high-quality products have long been monopolized by nobles, and even ordinary essential oils cost hundreds of pounds per catty!

After hearing Ferdinand's words, the joy in Franz's heart suddenly reached its peak. This is undoubtedly the greatest affirmation of his work.

When the new district of Sliven was established in the past, the government’s goal at that time was to build an industrial city with a population of 50,000 within five years. Due to lack of funds, under Ferdinand’s order, Franz resisted the heavy responsibility and contracted the new district. All management and construction.

At this time, the Sliven New District was already a metropolis with a population of over 300,000 and more than 200,000 industrial workers.

Even though the preferential policies of many enterprises have not expired at this time, the annual tax paid to the government can now be ranked among the top three in the country. It is one of the most important industrial cities in Bulgaria.

Because the results were too bad, when Ferdinand nominated Franz as the mayor of the new district, no one in the Bulgarian government objected.

Also because of the high development of the new district, Ferdinand's investment has also received rich returns. Now the city's rent and property management fees are all in units of tens of millions of levs!

Franz made such a great contribution, and of course Ferdinand would not treat him badly. In the previous conferring ceremony, Franz successfully completed the leap from commoner to noble, and became a Viscount of the Kingdom of Bulgaria!

The position of district chief was also appointed by Ferdinand after he became a nobleman. Otherwise, according to Bulgarian law, merchants have no right to serve as officials, and nobles are of course not subject to this restriction.
