Chapter 39, Holding High the Banner of "Humanism"
Time passed by and entered 191o, Ferdinand's focus of work returned to domestic construction again. &1t;/p>
People depend on food! &1t;/p>
In Ferdinand's heart, if any country cannot guarantee the supply of food, it is not far from the day of collapse. &1t;/p>
Since Ferdinand succeeded to the throne, he has attached great importance to agricultural production, promoted new agricultural technologies, and built water conservancy projects. These have always been Bulgaria's basic national policies! &1t;/p>
More than 20 years have passed, and the supporting water conservancy projects for agricultural production in Bulgaria have basically been completed. Now the only place that still has potential for development is the Greek Peninsula. &1t;/p>
Frankly speaking, the conditions for agricultural development on the Greek peninsula are not as good as those in Bulgaria, but it doesn't mean that there is no potential to be tapped. &1t;/p>
As one of the birthplaces of ancient human civilization, how could the Greek Peninsula be unsuitable for agricultural production? Ferdinand still clearly remembered that food processing and export in later generations was still one of the pillar industries in Greece! &1t;/p>
Oh, the Greek peninsula in this era is actually pretty good. George I's level of governance is still strong, leaving a good foundation. &1t;/p>
Ferdinand's goal now is to bring the Greek Peninsula into his hands as soon as possible to enhance Bulgaria's war potential, so Ferdinand decided to attack the Peloponnese first! &1t;/p>
The Peloponnese is located in the south of 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 food producing area of Greece. &1t;/p>
And the Peloponnese Peninsula was clearly ceded to Bulgaria in China, which has the least influence on the outside world, and now the arms race between the two major alliances is unfolding like a fire, attracting everyone's attention. &1t;/p>
In order to completely control the Peloponnese Peninsula, Ferdinand also made full preparations. It is definitely not possible to directly exile these 200,000 people, but it doesn't matter, there is still a division of the Bulgarian Army stationed on the peninsula, which is enough to suppress any changes. &1t;/p>
"Master, how are you preparing? When can you start to act?" Ferdinand said lightly&1t;/p>
Constantine said with confidence: "Your Majesty, please rest assured that everything is ready according to plan!" &1t;/p>
Ferdinand nodded. In fact, the plan is very simple. The Bulgarian government directly issued an announcement, that is, those who have not obtained the legal right of residence in Bulgaria are restricted to leave Bulgaria within three months. &1t;/p>
There's nothing wrong with this, you don't have the right to live on my territory, I have the right to let you go, at least it makes sense legally! &1t;/p>
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 dared to resist, then Ferdinand didn't mind adding more manpower to Bulgaria's mines! &1t;/p>
Oh, as for whether the residents on the peninsula have a place to go, this is not an issue that Ferdinand needs to consider. &1t;/p>
However, out of humanitarianism, the Bulgarian government is willing to provide free travel expenses for those who have nowhere to go to help them immigrate to Syria. &1t;/p>
To put it simply, it is to tell the Greeks to run if they have the ability to run, or they will go to that ghost place in Syria! &1t;/p>
In addition, there is another way to obtain legal residency.
This is as simple as having relatives with Bulgarian citizens, obtaining their guarantee, and learning Bulgarian within half a year, you can stay. &1t;/p>
Oh, this is equivalent to saying, hurry up and find someone to marry! The garrisons on the island are basically bachelors, as long as you marry your daughters to them, you don't have to leave! &1t;/p>
Of course, under normal circumstances, it is almost impossible to bring the two sides full of hatred together, so most Greeks still have to move. &1t;/p>
If you have relatives and friends on the main island, you can go to visit relatives and 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. &1t;/p>
In the past, many Greeks came from there to ask for a living. Obviously, this is not a good way for most people to go out. &1t;/p>
Needless to say, those with strong assets, of course, directly immigrated abroad. Whether it is going to European countries, America, or Africa, they will not be troubled. &1t;/p>
Of course, some idiots who immigrated to the Ottoman Empire are not excluded. After all, the two sides are close, and the cost of immigration is the lowest. For these people, as long as they want to go, Ferdinand will definitely send them off, and they will directly give away the ferry tickets for free. &1t;/p>
...&1t;/p>
Facts have proved that Ferdinand's strategy is still effective. Most of the rich people choose to run away immediately, and the capitalists run the fastest! &1t;/p>
There are also some people who can't see the situation clearly, trying to gather crowds to make trouble, and then they are quickly suppressed by the Bulgarian army, and then thousands of miners are added to a certain mine. &1t;/p>
Most of the remaining ordinary people accepted Bulgaria's humanitarian assistance and organized a group to go to Syria to build a beautiful homeland. &1t;/p>
Oh, of course, there are many small episodes, but they are not important, and the final result is always good. &1t;/p>
In order to solve the livelihood problem of the immigrants, the newly established Syrian Agricultural Company in Bulgaria also invited them to open up wasteland and farm land, successfully solving the employment problem of the immigrants! &1t;/p>
The above fully shows that Bulgaria is a responsible big country, and it has done a good job in resettling refugees! &1t;/p>
At that time, it was also widely appreciated by international public opinion, and many sociological researchers gave it a high evaluation! &1t;/p>
Oh, this is the conclusion reached after comparing the actions of several major powers in the colonies, and it is not ruled out that money has been collected! &1t;/p>
By the end of 191o, only a mere 8,000 residents on the Peloponnese Peninsula had obtained the right of residence legally. Most of the other residents accepted Bulgaria’s humanitarian assistance and went to settle in Syria. Only a very small number of them chose to immigrate overseas. . &1t;/p>
As a price, Bulgaria's humanitarian relief expenditure in 1910 was as high as 80 million levs, and the public opinion and public relations expenses once exceeded 15 million levs! &1t;/p>
In the years to come, the successful experience of the Peloponnes Peninsula will be transplanted by the Bulgarian government to other regions, and then be emulated by other countries, which has had a profound impact on the world pattern! &1t;/p>
...&1t;/p>
"Your Majesty, the situation in Portugal is out of control. King Manuel II is unable to control the situation. The Republican Party is almost unable to hold back. The Kingdom of Portugal may have a revolution at any time!" Fuhu&1t;/p>
Just as Ferdinand praised his wit, a piece of news from the intelligence agency interrupted his good mood. His hapless nephew seemed to be doomed! &1t;/p>
Although Ferdinand didn't have much affection for this cheap nephew, he still didn't want any changes in the Kingdom of Portugal. &1t;/p>
Ferdinand now has a bit of a feeling that iron can't be made into steel. Compared with parallel time and space, there are still people supporting him in this plane, but he still does nothing and lets the Republican Party grow bigger! &1t;/p>
A good hand of cards was wasted by him in vain! However, Ferdinand still believes that the Republican Party still dares to go too far. At least the expulsion of Manuel II must take into account their international influence. After all, the United Kingdom and Bulgaria have made clear statements before. &1t;/p>
"Do you know the plan of the Republicans? Are they planning to end the monarchy directly, or leave a rubber stamp?" Ferdinand asked suppressing his dissatisfaction &1t;/p>
Fhoo was taken aback, and then replied: "This issue is still being debated within the Republican Party. There are too many factions within them, and it is difficult to unify their opinions in a short time, otherwise they would have moved now!"&1t;/p>
Ferdinand nodded, that's right, if there are no problems within the Portuguese Republican Party, parallel time and space, how did they have a civil war? &1t;/p>
However, he underestimated the ability of Manuel II. A bunch of messy political parties can join hands to deal with him as a king. It is conceivable how unpopular he is! &1t;/p>
It looks like he didn't do any heinous things, did he? As soon as he succeeded to the throne, he was fooled into giving up most of his rights and handed them over to the cabinet. &1t;/p>
Oh, the cabinet of the Kingdom of Portugal seems to be changing too diligently, but these are also the result of their own internal struggles! &1t;/p>
These also need the king to be responsible? &1t;/p>
If you can't figure out Ferdinand, you simply don't think about it. Anyway, Manuel II is definitely behind the blame. &1t;/p>
Now the Portuguese people are very dissatisfied with the government. With the integrity of the politicians, how could they take the initiative to take responsibility? &1t;/p>
And Manuel II didn't even do a good job of throwing the pot away. It can be said that this young king was completely driven to the shelves, and he didn't inherit the core inheritance of Ferdinand's line at all! &1t;/p>
Ferdinand finally decided to pay close attention to the development of the situation in the Kingdom of Portugal, but not to interfere for the time being! &1t;/p>
