Struggle in Russia

, The fastest update of struggle in the latest chapter of Tsarist Russia!

What issues Nicholas I would discuss at the Imperial Conference is definitely a must-do for the Imperial Minister who is thinking about flattering the emperor. Naturally, the wired telegraph project is definitely one of the required exam questions.

So Nicholas I’s voice just fell, except for the Duke of Ordorf who was in charge of the project, who replied: “Your Majesty, the progress is going very smoothly. The first route to Kronstadt will be opened within the month!”

There were also a bunch of mixed voices rushing to answer:

“The route from St. Petersburg to Moscow is also under planning, and we strive to build it within one year!”

“The route to Kiev is also under discussion. I believe it will not take two years for you to get information about Kiev as soon as possible!”

These enthusiastic voices made Nicholas I very satisfied. He liked to see his courtiers march forward courageously according to the route he planned. The sooner the better.

The only thing that made him a little regretful was that no one told him in advance that the route to Moldavia and Wallachia was also closed. Although he wanted to know the situation of Duke Constantine the first time, that direction Next is the focus of the empire is also very important factor.

However, Nicholas I also knew that we should not be too anxious, because compared with Kiev and Moscow, Moldavia and Wallachia must be more important to the back. Besides, they are all connected to Kiev, Domoldavi. Ya and Wallachia are not far away, and if Grand Duke Constantine and Alexei are smart enough, they should know how to get on this ride.

Of course, at this time Nicholas I was still a little worried about the precarious national finances. Although he seemed to dismiss it when he beat the Chancellor of the Exchequer before, he actually knew that the country’s finances were still problematic in recent years.

The previous pit to wipe out the Hungarian rebellion has not been filled, and then Moldavia has been messy and must be garrisoned to suppress it. In the past few years, he repaired a few more palaces and conducted military parades. In short, there were too many places to spend money, but the place where the money came did not grow, making the treasury unable to make ends meet.

Now we have to prepare for the use of troops in Turkey, and also build a cable telegraph project, especially the latter is not in the previous planned planning. Once this project spreads too much, it will be overwhelmed if the cost is like running water. .

But Nicholas I couldn’t say at the Imperial Conference not to engage in cable telegraphy, because he just suppressed the conservatives’ troubles, and once he didn’t take it seriously or wanted to save a little bit, the guys would think He lost interest in the cable telegraph, and then…

What happened after Nicholas I was very clear. For these conservatives, as long as he, the czar, is not active, they will be more slack.

Nicholas I didn’t want the cable telegraph project to have a good start and then the twists and turns, so he could only temporarily hold back the heart that wanted to save money, and did not say much, but said indifferently: “That’s very Okay, I hope to hear the good news soon!”

For these imperial ministers, observing Nicholas I’s emotional changes was the most basic homework. They could feel that Nicholas I’s emotions did not seem to be particularly high, and it seemed that the progress of the cable telegraph project did not make him particularly happy. ?

This discovery made the old foxes murmur in their hearts, because they couldn’t guess why Nicholas I was not in a high mood, was the enthusiasm for the cable telegraph project gradually disappearing, or was he not satisfied with the progress not fast enough?

Regardless of the possibility, it is not a good thing for these old fritters. If it is the former, it means that their early investment will be lost, and if it is the latter, it means that they have to increase their investment. But now the treasury has no money, it can’t stand the tossing!

It’s not that these old foxes are sympathetic to the country, but they knew exactly what Nicholas I would do if the treasury ran out of money. According to the general routine, they were trying to collect more taxes to make up for the holes, but once they had to collect more taxes. Can people run away?

At that time, it became wool out of the sheep. These old foxes were not interested in spending their money to help Nicholas I build a cable telegraph, so they actually hoped that Nicholas I would toss within the scope allowed by the national treasury. Don’t do it. !

It’s just that they didn’t dare to express these emotions clearly, let alone test Nicholas I’s true intentions at this moment. Otherwise, let Nicholas I mistakenly think that they don’t want to contribute to the cable telegraph project, isn’t that stupid!

So the situation at the scene was a bit weird. Nicholas I was afraid that his courtiers would not do their best, so he dared not explain his words, and his good courtiers were afraid to make him unhappy. The two gangs are so funny that they are pretending to be confused.

But these have nothing to do with Count Uvarov, because he didn’t want to care about the cable telegraph at all. He could not violate the will of Nicholas I. He could not summarize the project. The only thing he could do was not to participate. However, since today’s story is about the cable telegraph, he happened to use this to beat Baryatinsky and his gang.

“Your Majesty, if the cable telegraph project is rolled out on a large scale, it may consume too much funds. Now that the national treasury is tight, I think we still need to be cautious!”

Uvarov’s voice just came out, and everyone’s expressions changed. Nicholas I looked at him displeased. As for the others, they either looked at him with horror or waited with sorrow. Look at the jokes.

Yes, UU reading www.uukanshu.com everyone, including Nicholas I, thought that Uvarov would try to end the cable telegraph project again.

It’s just that, Uvarov actually didn’t mean this, or he really wanted to do it, but he knew that this was impossible at all. The purpose of what he said was actually very simple, that is, the drunkard’s intention is not to drink!

Sure enough, without waiting for Nicholas I and others to react, Uvarov said again: “I think if the cable telegraph project must be launched, it might as well absorb private capital first. For example, let the person in charge of each line take responsibility. The construction costs, when the state finances are alleviated, then the payment will be allocated uniformly!”

Well, this proposal makes many people’s faces very ugly, because if this proposal is passed, it means that they need to spend their own money to buy Nicholas I happy. This is completely contrary to their original intention.

After all, their original plan was to spend the country’s money to get a vote and then make Nicholas I irritated. This is almost a foolish business idiot who would not do it!

But if Uvarov’s suggestion is passed, they will have to pay for it. Although it can still make Nicholas I happy, is the price too high?
