Romanian Eagle

Genius to remember the address of this site for a second: (Top Chinese), the fastest update! No ads! Eder watched the pre-war turmoil caused by the assassination of Archduke Ferdinand in Bucharest. He received the news the first time the crown prince was assassinated, only 10 minutes later than the Austro-Hungarian chief of staff. The situation was also the same as what he knew in his previous life, the countries refused to let each other and ultimately rely on force to resolve their disputes.

After receiving the news of Austria-Hungary's declaration of war on Serbia, Eder immediately recruited Director Adri, intending to stop the export of Romanian grain this year, waiting for this batch of grain to be sold at a "good price".

"Your Highness, look for me."

As the head of the court, Viscount Adrien, although his hair turned gray as he got older, his hair was still meticulously combed, and he still looked elegant when matched with decent clothes. In the face of the crown prince's call, he rushed over quickly.

Looking at the court director in front of him, Edel told him. "Let the Grain Import and Export Association make adjustments and suspend grain exports this year."

After Viscount Adrie heard the Crown Prince's words, he looked at the Crown Prince in disbelief.

You must know that Romania's annual grain export volume is about 3 million tons, and now is the time to sign the bulk grain purchase contract. If Europe lacks Romania, a major grain exporter, a sharp rise in European grain prices is inevitable. And bulk grain exports are not only an economic account, but also a political account.

If Romania's grain exports are suspended, then the market share may be occupied by other countries, which will be a big blow to the newly established association. After all, the businessmen of the Grain Import and Export Association don't care whether you are a royal family or not. If you stop them from making money, there will be no good results. Viscount Adrie inevitably hesitated.

After seeing the hesitation of the court director in front of him, Eder couldn't tell him that the war in Europe would take four years, and he didn't need to worry about whether the food could be sold. Then he said the concerns of the palace chief. "The situation in Europe is too tense now. Let's wait and see before making a decision. If those businessmen can't wait, you can buy it at the price of previous years on behalf of the royal family."

Hearing the Crown Prince's explanation, Viscount Adrie felt much more at ease. After all, he is not afraid of the grain exporter on the surface, and the big nobles of the land standing behind the merchant are not something that a small viscount can bear. Now with the crown prince's words, he thinks the problem is much simpler.

"Okay, Your Highness, I will send a telegram to the association to suspend the export of food. I believe those businessmen will feel the goodwill of the royal family."

After Viscount Adri finished speaking to Eder, he was going to leave the crown prince's office, but Eder stopped him at this moment. "Viscount Adrien, wait a minute."

The palace steward turned and asked. "Is there anything else the Crown Prince?"

Edel left his desk and walked to the palace chief and asked in a low voice. "Has my father been in bad health recently?"

Recently, Edel has been paying attention to the follow-up of the assassination of Archduke Ferdinand, and also pays attention to the reserves of various supplies in Romania, and the birth of his wife Sophie Marie is approaching. Carol I and his wife, who spent the summer in the Peresh Palace, were less concerned about it, but there was still news that his father's health had deteriorated recently, and he had not gone out for a few days. So Edel asked the palace steward to see if he knew anything.

"His Royal Highness." Viscount Adri said the wording he organized while thinking. "His Majesty the King did feel unwell recently, but he is much better now. It's mainly because of His Majesty's own wishes, in order not to make you worry too much."

Hearing the words of the palace chief did not dispel Edel's worries, after all, he was his father in this life. Moreover, Carol I is already an old man in his 80s. In this era when the medical level is not as good as that of the previous life, any small problems that appear in this old man may become a big problem. Edel intends to go to the Peresh Palace to see after this period of work, and after all, he has to see it himself before he can rest assured.

After Edel sent off Viscount Adrie, there was still a lot to do now. In addition to the export control of grain, Eder also cares about Romania's strategic reserves. Now a large amount of raw materials imported from Romania are stored near Constanta, and the local warehouses are full. Now they are transported to various places by railway lines. Fortunately, government departments are doing them, otherwise he would not be able to care about them.

At present, the domestic finance is just enough, and many things have no funds to implement. For example, the request of the medical and education department for funding new schools and hospitals cannot be met, and the transportation department requires that the renovation of old railways and the replacement of old locomotives can only be done in critical areas. The army has also always wanted to change the now backward reserve, but it has not been satisfied. When Pu Lishan inspected the reserves in various places, he also saw some militiamen training with Mannlixia 1871 rifles. These can be summed up in one sentence is no money to make trouble.

On the whole, Romania has developed well, but just like its own motherland in the previous life, there are still many places that need to be improved, which requires a lot of money to do it. It's just that Romania's fiscal year is more than 20 million pounds. It is extremely eye-catching in the small Balkan countries, but it is not enough to compare with the major countries. Italy, which has the least income now, is more than 5 times that of Romania.

Edel buried himself in his office dealing with domestic affairs. In the evening, he looked up at the crimson sunset in the sky and the lights gradually lighting up in the palace. He put down his work and planned to accompany his wife. Now Sophie Marie's body is getting heavier and heavier, and it is not very good to have no one around her to accompany her. His parents were on vacation in the Peresh Palace, where only he was considered family. Although noble ladies come to the palace to accompany their wives to relieve their boredom these days, what they still need most is their husband.

Edel walked out of the office and asked the guard beside him. "Where is the Crown Princess?"

"The Crown Princess is in the Rose Room, accompanied by the Countess of Berwick."

After hearing the guard's words, Edel walked towards the Rose Hall.

The Rose Hall is famous because her mother likes to put a lot of books. In the past days, my mother called many literary people here to open a literary salon. If anyone in Romania is not invited to the Rose Hall, then he is not considered a country. famous writer. And her wife, Sophie Mary, also likes the bookish atmosphere here, but she likes to gather noble ladies and celebrities to chat together.

When Edel walked into the Rose Hall, she saw his wife, Sophie Marie, with her hands on her stomach, talking to a noblewoman in her thirties. She saw Edel walked in and said happily. "Edel, are you busy today?"

"It's done, I'll come and take a look when I hear you're here."

Edel walked over to her and leaned down and said in a low voice. At this time, Mrs. Berwick was very winking and said to the crown prince and his wife. "Your Highness, I have to leave beforehand."

After getting the approval of the crown prince and his wife, the lady left the Rose Hall with small steps.

After seeing no one around, Edel spoke to Sophie Marie. "Have you been happy lately, my princess?"

Sophie Marie tilted her head and pretended to think playfully. "It was fine until you came."

Edel pretended to be annoyed and said. "I'm not as good as these people who chat with you."

Sophie Marie looked at Edel's expression and smiled, watching her wife smile happily. Edel lay on his wife's lap and listened carefully to her abdomen. "Has our little cutie been doing anything recently?"

"I kicked my stomach a few times today, and I will be as naughty as you in the future."

Edel listened to his wife's words and felt very fulfilled in his heart. He has his own country and a happy family. Now a little life is about to be born, and he has left his own footprint in this world.
