In the Crown Prince's office in the palace, the newly appointed Prime Minister Bretianu is handing over the cabinet list of this government to the Crown Prince. He had already gone to the old King Carol I before, even though the old King was not in charge of things, as usual
The prime minister still needs to submit the list of cabinet formation to the king, which will take effect only after the king approves it. However, this time the old king directly asked him to go to the crown prince to sign, which made him more certain of his ideas.
"This is the list of this cabinet. Please take a look at it and see if there is any inappropriateness." In front of the crown prince, Prime Minister Bretianu lowered his posture because this was his previous Prime Minister Stanley.
As a result of your studies, the greatest advantage of an old prime minister who has been in charge of the Romanian government for ten years is that Prime Minister Bretianu does not mind studying hard.
Edel took over the list from Prime Minister Bretianu and looked at it. The new prime minister was very smart. He retained all the people Edel valued and promoted, and put them after his own name, giving people a sense that he
He will still listen to what the Crown Prince wants.
After reading the cabinet list, Edel lowered his head and signed it, then handed it to Bretianu and said, "Your Excellency, Prime Minister, I hope Romania will become stronger under your leadership."
"Your Highness, our government still needs your guidance to do better." Faced with the Crown Prince's words, Bretianu was very clear-headed and knew that he had to listen in turn and really make his own decision. It is estimated that he has been the prime minister for a year.
Can't go down.
Edel sat behind his desk, looked at Bretianu in front of him, and asked thoughtfully, "Mr. Prime Minister, what do you think is the most important job in Romania now?"
After hearing what the crown prince said, Bretianu knew that it was time to show off his abilities. He organized his thoughts and spoke.
"Your Highness, I think what is most needed in Romania now is to strengthen advantageous industries. Our domestic automobile manufacturing, internal combustion engines, petrochemicals, etc. are all industries that are performing very well. The focus of our government in recent years is to ensure the operation of these good enterprises.
.In terms of agriculture, Romania is a major producer of agricultural products, but in terms of field yield per mu, there is still a big gap with other countries. This is also the direction we should work hard."
After talking about domestic affairs, Prime Minister Bretianu continued to talk about diplomatic issues. "Your Highness, the situation in Europe is very tense now. We cannot be too biased to one side, otherwise there is a risk of being pulled into the camp. I think it is necessary for everyone to
Every country that can help us needs to show goodwill."
Eder understood what the Prime Minister meant. He believed that the current too close relationship with Germany had affected Romania's national interests. Now it was necessary to focus its diplomacy on improving relations with the Allies. He and the Prime Minister took this into consideration.
Edel looked at Prime Minister Bretianu who expressed his governing philosophy, and thought to himself that this prime minister is still a very smart person, but he still does not understand him as deeply as Edel, a person from later generations.
"Your Excellency, Prime Minister, I am very satisfied with your answer, but there are a few points I need to add. First, in agriculture, we must not only increase production, but also expand planting area. This requires improving our agricultural farming level. The current intensive farming
We have reached the limit and this model can be changed. Use mechanization as a new breakthrough point." Edel said his first request.
"Your Highness, I will organize people to study this issue after returning to the government and come up with a plan as soon as possible. However, I need your Highness's help in terms of machinery." Prime Minister Bretianu replied. He knew that the Crown Prince had built a new machinery factory to produce
Agricultural machinery is now in high demand. If the Crown Prince can lean more towards Romania, his job will be much easier.
"I will give instructions to the Ploiesti Machinery Factory to leave more agricultural machinery for the country." Edel told the Prime Minister.
"Thank you Crown Prince for your love for the people of the Kingdom." Brutianu gave the Crown Prince a small pat on the butt.
Seeing that the prime minister had no objection to the crown prince's agricultural requirements, Edel continued. "Secondly, regarding the people's medical health and education, the prime minister also needs to pay more attention."
"Your Highness, I will pay more attention to this issue, but the government's finances are not too generous now. I can only try to improve this issue." Increase the amount of money in the two major spending items of education and health, even as the prime minister.
Bretianu did not dare to agree easily. You must know that the two expenditures together are higher than the military expenditure, so adding a little is not a small amount.
Eder saw that Prime Minister Bretianu did not dare to agree easily, so he had to lower his requirements. "Then the medical and health aspects should be improved first, so that the people of the Kingdom can feel the benefits of Romania's development."
"It's time for the people to feel the changes in Romania." Prime Minister Bretianu knew that this was the crown prince's last condition, so he had no choice but to agree. Fortunately, the medical and health funding was not so exaggerated, and he could still cope with it.
After the crown prince gained control of the government, he no longer continued to pressure the prime minister. This time he just tested Prime Minister Bretianu's attitude towards him, and he felt that he was still in control.
Prime Minister Bretianu got the approval list from the Crown Prince and walked out of the palace. After coming out, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It seems that the rumors are indeed true. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is quite shrewd and not easy to fool at all. Fortunately
He had already thought about it before, otherwise he would not have been able to pass the test. Of course, what he said to the Crown Prince was not a lie, and he did not dare to fool him. These were all the governance policies he had thought of before, and now the Crown Prince has added two more to him,
This has doubled the pressure on the newly appointed prime minister.
After seeing Bretianu come out, a large group of senior Liberal Party officials gathered around him. His cousin Ventille stepped forward and asked, "How about the Prime Minister's meeting with the King this time?"
In front of senior leaders of the Liberal Party, he could not show too much intimacy.
"His Royal Highness approved the cabinet list."
Hearing that the list had been approved, a group of senior Liberal Party officials were also very happy. Previously, a prime minister had taken the list of cabinet formation and the king had to send it back and change it again. Windiller noticed that his cousin used the word "His Royal Highness".
But now the only person who can approve the cabinet list is the Crown Prince, so he asked, "Prime Minister, did the Crown Prince approve it?"
"Yes, His Majesty the King asked me to submit the cabinet list to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for approval."
Hearing Prime Minister Bretianu's words, everyone came back from their excitement. Faced with this new situation, everyone was thinking about the changes. Prime Minister Bretianu glanced at the people who were also talking about it.
Greeting Kalituli in the crowd, he thought to himself that this nephew of Stuart was really lucky. When he entered the political arena, he was protected by an old fox. If he had some achievements, he was valued by the crown prince. I heard that the crown prince took the initiative to make him a confidant. In this way
Who has better opportunities than him? Kalituli in the crowd didn't know that he had just been jealous of the Prime Minister.
This is what Wendile said. "This situation should be reported soon. Let's go back and discuss it first. It's not good to stay at the gate of the palace."
When everyone heard that this was indeed the case, they all got into their own cars and planned to discuss it later. Windiller looked at everyone who had gotten into the car, and then got into a car with the Prime Minister.
"What's the matter with Wendile?" Prime Minister Bretianu asked after seeing his cousin getting into a car with him. He waited for a while and asked. He knew that his cousin should have something to say to him.
Sure enough, Wen Tiller said something more important. "Cousin, the ambassadors of Britain, France, and Russia hope to visit you."
Prime Minister Bretianu said after thinking for a while. "When I go back, I will tell them that I very much welcome their visit."
