Romania has begun to be deeply involved in the Spanish Civil War, which may be big news for Spain in the civil war. But to others, it is nothing. Even in Romania, this news is not too shocking.
For the current Romania, the domestic situation deserves more attention from Eder.
"This is how the same thing?"
Before Hallmonkman, who had just returned home, had time to take a breath, he was called in front of Edel and questioned.
It was certainly not a trivial matter to be called by Edel for questioning, because the largest strike in Romania broke out in Oradea. More than 80,000 workers and their families took to the streets, demanding increased wages, increased vacation time, and
Companies also need to take responsibility for illnesses caused by work.
Faced with the sudden strike protest, the local government on the one hand tried to appease the strike team and prevent the demonstration from turning into an uncontrollable riot. On the other hand, it also asked local business and factory owners to make a commitment to meet the demands of some workers.
And of course the local government needs to report such a large-scale strike demonstration to Bucharest.
In fact, for the people in Transylvania, a large area of the former Austro-Hungarian territory, this region has the most labor disputes, and it also has the lowest wages in Romania.
The main reason is that on the one hand, the government's oppression of the Hungarians in the area has allowed some people to find opportunities to take advantage of loopholes. They recruit Hungarians as workers on a large scale, keep their wages to the minimum, and sometimes default on their wages.
Faced with this situation, the local Hungarian people have reported it to the government, but for some ulterior motives, nothing has changed at all. This has also resulted in workers of other ethnic groups not being able to increase their local wages at all.
The wages have been lower than those elsewhere for a long time, and the currency devaluation in the past two years has led to rising prices. The people in the area have become more and more dissatisfied. Some time ago, there happened to be a factory that fired more than ten workers because of an accident. There was no resentment.
The workers, who were always venting their anger, broke out completely. More than 80,000 workers and their families poured into the streets, and a vigorous strike began.
And this is not the reason why Edel is angry. What really makes him angry is the resurgence of the Communist Party behind the workers' strike.
Previously, the Romanian Communist Party suffered severe suppression and the outbreak of the Russo-Soviet War, which made the party less powerful in Romania. With the decline in people's living standards, the suppressed Communist Party was also quietly growing. This made Edel's
The resilience of the Communist Party is astonishing.
They were dissatisfied with the fact that the intelligence department had not discovered any traces of the Communist Party, so after being praised for Operation Gold, the intelligence department was reprimanded during this strike.
In fact, this cannot be blamed on the intelligence agencies. The strike was mainly caused by the decline in people's living standards and the government's oppression of Hungarians. Moreover, as the intelligence agencies severely suppressed the Communist Party, its activities became more and more hidden.
But can this be used as a reason? It cannot at all. Because it will mean that the government's previous policy was wrong and that His Majesty Eder, who made this decision, handled it improperly.
Therefore, the blame can only be borne by the intelligence agencies, who failed to discover this strike in advance.
Edel looked at the atmosphere in front of him and didn't dare to look at Hall Monkman. He thought about his serious and responsible attitude towards intelligence work, and it was indeed inappropriate to get angry with him this time.
Hall Monkman, who suffered an unreasonable disaster, said after seeing that His Majesty's anger was no longer reduced. "Your Majesty, I will step up domestic intelligence work right away. This will never happen again."
"Go ahead."
After sending Holmonkman away, Edel called a guard. "Call Prime Minister Mihalakai over. I have something to tell you."
That's right, it's time for Eder to make changes to the ethnic policies he has been implementing.
…
"Your Majesty, I wonder what you want from me?"
As soon as Prime Minister Mihalaka came up, he asked about the reason for the summons. In fact, he had made a guess on the way here, but this was just a guess, and he still needed to confirm it.
Edel did not mince words and asked directly. "What do you think of the strike in Oradea?"
Faced with Eder's inquiry, Prime Minister Mihalaka replied without thinking. "Your Majesty, this is just a small group of black-hearted factories squeezing workers, which has led to the expansion of labor-capital conflicts. Your Majesty does not need to be too alarmed by this. I believe it will be over soon."
It can calm down.”
After hearing the Prime Minister's words, Eder knew that the Prime Minister did not want to blame the local government too much for this, because they were just implementing policies.
"So how does the government plan to respond to this strike? There has been an increase in strikes and protests in the country recently."
When Prime Minister Mihalakai heard Eder's inquiry, he knew that this was just rhetoric. This was not an increase at all, it was almost twice as much as two years ago.
As for Eder's sudden inquiry about how to handle the strike, Prime Minister Mihalakai wondered if His Majesty had any other opinions on this. Because according to the original method, the government organized negotiations between labor and management and tried to bring together the opinions of the two parties.
Now that your Majesty is asking, he must have other opinions.
"I wonder what Your Majesty thinks should be done?"
The Prime Minister, who had some concerns in his heart, planned to ask Edel for his opinion first.
Since the Prime Minister asked, Edel did not hide it. "I think it is mainly caused by low wages in the region, because it is somewhat unfair to the workers in the region. As far as I know, west of Transylvania,
The salary level is 10-15% lower than in other regions, which I think is a bit unreasonable."
Edel expressed his opinion, which reassured the Prime Minister. Because the low salary in this region is caused by many factors. And since His Majesty has already hinted, then the policy in this region needs to be adjusted.
In fact, Prime Minister Mihalaka is also very clear about the oppression suffered by Hungarians, but who made him commit too many crimes before. And those who are still in Romania are basically subdued. Maybe they can be let go
Suppression of them returned to normal levels.
Prime Minister Mihalakai, who wanted to understand, took over what Eder said. "Your Majesty is wise, the wages in this area were indeed low before, and those factories were over-squeezing them. This is not a good thing for the government. Then you can take advantage of this opportunity to
Salary levels in the region have risen to be on par with other regions."
Of course, this balance is the same as the baseline, so that the salary level will not be too conspicuous. In addition, many policies targeting Hungarians will gradually be lifted.
Now that the government has made a decision, the leadership of the subsequent negotiations rests with the government. Faced with the government's bias, the capital side has no way to compete and directly accepts the outcome of the salary increase.
Of course, in order to prevent the labor side from taking the opportunity to raise its demands, the government told its negotiators that this time it can only discuss the outcome. If the trouble continues, the government will no longer intervene.
The labor side, which got the desired result, is very satisfied with being able to negotiate such a result.
