In the busy Prime Minister's Office, Kerstev is busy processing various documents.
"Alkov, how did you make this plan? Didn't I tell you that you must include this cost? Why did you forget it? Now, go and make it again for me right away."
"What's going on with this budget report of the Burgas government? Do they think the government has too much money to spend? Tell Finance Minister Morkonov not to always push all problems to me. He is worried about this
, worry about that, if this is the case, he, the Finance Minister, should stop doing it. Don’t think that since we are a political party, I will be polite to him, don’t even think about it.”
Accompanying Kerstev's work is his voice. Now not only does he have a bad temper, but his voice is getting louder and louder. No way, after Edel left Sofia and returned to Bucharest, he found that many government officials were getting louder and louder.
The more outrageous it is.
As a responsible prime minister, he certainly would not tolerate them. So he severely punished these officials. Who knew that this would hurt a hornet's nest. If he didn't do it openly, he would do it secretly. All problems were reported to them.
Of course, Kerstev is getting busier and busier, but he is not a vegetarian and will replace anyone who goes too far. In the past two years, 18% of Bulgarian government officials have been replaced, but the situation is still under his control.
There was a knock on the door and the secretary walked in. "Prime Minister, everyone is due."
"Okay, I'll come right away."
Putting down the pen in his hand, Kerstev followed the secretary towards the conference room, where a crucial meeting was waiting for him.
In the conference room, the ministers who had gathered together were also chatting.
"Romtok, your Ministry of Transportation is so busy, but you can still gain weight."
The Minister of Transportation who was stopped was a fat man with a wide body and a fat body. He wiped the sweat on his head and replied, "What can I do? Now I need to change three pairs of shoes a month, but I can't lose weight."
Come down. Unlike your Ministry of Health and Education, who just stay in the office every day, I now run around every day and rarely even go home."
"I think it's not that you don't want to go home, but that you don't dare to go back. Your Momina has been reported in the newspapers."
"This is slander. I have nothing to do with that Momina."
Romtok, who was provoked, quickly denied it. No one has ever had such a thing as a lover. As long as he is not caught, no one can admit it.
"Bang"
As the door of the conference room was opened, the lively scene just now disappeared immediately, and Prime Minister Kerstev was seen walking away with a sullen face.
He turned a blind eye to the lively scene before and said directly, "We have a meeting now."
Looking at the quiet conference room, he took the lead and said, "You all know the content of this meeting, right?"
"Know."
"learn."
After getting everyone's response, Kerstev continued. "Now that everyone knows it, then we need to make the entire Bulgaria form a wave to agree to merge with Romania."
"Mifflek, you need to tighten your control over public opinion. I don't want to hear any opposition from the media during this time."
Miflek, who was named, replied with a somewhat unnatural expression, "I'll try my best."
"It's not about trying your best, it's about completing it. Do you have any questions?"
Seeing Mifflek with an unnatural expression, Kerstev stared at him with some annoyance.
"No... no problem."
In the end, Mifflek, defeated by Kerstev's eyes, succumbed.
Mifflek's attitude made Kerstev very dissatisfied. He slammed the table to draw everyone's attention to him.
"I know some of you are dissatisfied with this and think it is a betrayal of Bulgarian tradition. You think Bulgaria was annexed by Romania. I don't want to explain here, because this is not true. We are united, not who annexed whom, this
This is a very important point, and I think you should think so too.
You should know what annexation is. We were annexed by the Eastern Roman Empire and the Ottoman Empire before. I believe that everyone will never forget that feeling. And this merger with the Kingdom of Romania is a great opportunity for us in Bulgaria.
An opportunity, an opportunity to bring all Bulgarians together in one country.
Although we Bulgarians are no longer the only ones in this kingdom, this is the best opportunity for us. Because we in Bulgaria alone cannot fulfill such a wish and can only rely on the help of others. Although this opportunity seems
It doesn’t fit the mold we’ve always thought of, but it’s still an opportunity. And this opportunity is so close, it’s worth giving us a try.”
Finally, Kerstev gave a choice. "Now I give everyone a chance. Those who are willing to create a future with me sit down. Those who are unwilling can leave. You can make your choice."
Kerstev's speech let everyone know his determination this time, and after working together for so long, they all knew this person's style very well. For those who dare to obstruct him, his revenge is enough to make people wet their pants.
Therefore, there is only one choice this time, and that is not to move, otherwise the person who leaves the next day will be ruined.
After seeing that no one left, Kerstev continued. "Since no one is willing to leave, it means that we have the same idea. Every request of mine must be fulfilled, otherwise I will be very angry, which will be very harmful to everyone."
None of them are good. Mifflek, tell me loudly if there is any problem."
Miflek, who was suddenly called by name, was startled. He quickly replied loudly, "No problem, Your Excellency, Prime Minister."
Kerstev was very satisfied with Mifflek's answer. Then he called the names of all the people present. No one dared to oppose the sullen Prime Minister, and everyone gave satisfactory answers.
Finally, Kerstev said, "Since everyone has no problem, let's complete their respective tasks. I want to remind everyone here that if anyone fails to complete this task, I will be very angry."
Everyone who obeyed the Prime Minister's powerful aura immediately fled like birds and animals.
"Felakov, wait a moment."
Kersteff suddenly stopped someone.
After being stopped, Felakov watched the others leave and replied, "Okay, Your Excellency, Prime Minister."
After everyone left, Filakov glanced at the closed door and said, "Prime Minister, you are playing with fire."
At this time, the prime minister, who had a completely calm face, showed an expression of complete indifference. "Without forcing them, this matter will not be completed at all. And for the merger, I have staked everything. The great cause of Bulgaria's unification, let us
The wait has been too long and I can’t wait any longer.”
Feilakov was moved in his heart and hurriedly said, "Did they agree to our request?"
Kerstev nodded in response to the question, then he held up two fingers and said, "In two years, the united United Kingdom will make territorial claims to Yugoslavia and Greece."
Hearing the Prime Minister's words, Felakov felt short of breath. "What if they don't agree?"
"Then go to war. The merged kingdom will go to war against the two countries. In return for the war, the Bulgarians need to mobilize at least 400,000 people to join this war to regain the lost territory."
Hearing Prime Minister Kerstev's words, Filakov was not surprised at all, because they are the same kind of people. In order to unify the Bulgarians, they do not mind selling themselves to the devil.
Besides, this merger is not without benefits for Bulgaria. At least one-third of the positions in the future coalition government will be held by Bulgarians. I believe that the status of Bulgarians in the kingdom will not be low in the future.
As a man who shares the same ideals, Felakov certainly knew that the Prime Minister would not leave him here just to tell him the news. So he asked, "What do you need me to do?"
Sure enough, Prime Minister Kerstev said in a low voice. "There is no need to keep the remaining opposition parties. You can find a way to deal with them yourself. When it comes to the merger, I don't need to hear different voices."
.”
"Okay, leave this matter to me. I happen to have disliked them for a long time. It's time to let them know how powerful the Ministry of Internal Affairs is."
