Chapter 13 The House of Commons

PS: Please vote, please collect, have signed a contract, I hope I can enter the homepage of the new book list before changing my status. Please everyone!!!

What ability does Nord have to affect the entire European landscape? If there were no satellite discovery, the United States would definitely think so, but since Nord's frequent incomprehensible situations have made the United States doubt whether Nord has received help from aliens.

The fifth penalty area in the United States is very mysterious. It is rumored that there are alien corpses and spacecrafts. However, only the US president understands that those are fake. Aliens are just rumors. Even he himself dares not be sure whether there are them. Now Nord has a series of confusing things, which makes the US government suspicious that there are traces of aliens. (This book is not science fiction, it is just an excuse, and there will be no alien incidents)

The US government dares not act rashly. After all, no one knows whether the Principality of Nord has any trump card. If someone has weapons similar to an atomic bomb, wouldn't that cause trouble for themselves?

If Joseph knew the idea of ​​the US government, he would definitely laugh happily. Aliens might be a good reason, especially if they could make the United States afraid, which is very conducive to Nord's development.

Of course, those have nothing to do with Joseph at this time. When he heard Marshall mention his name at the meeting and raised the aid to 300 million US dollars, it would be fake if he was not surprised. After all, this was a huge amount of money given to him in vain.

Three hundred million US dollars is not a lot. The world's richest people are more than these assets now, but for the Principal of Nord, this is already a huge sum of money. On the other hand, the world's richest people need to support have a population of more than 100,000, while his subjects have only 2,000. If they are evenly divided, his citizens will undoubtedly live a better life.

Marshall's purpose can also be seen, but he has no reason to refuse this kindness, and even without this, France will not have too close relations with Nord. With the support of the United States, Nord may be safer.

The joint meeting in Paris was delayed in such a quarrel until mid-July. Fortunately, Britain and France finally chose to compromise, and the total amount of aid was placed on the table of the US president. (The economy in the 1980s was naturally three times higher than the amount in history.)

Europe's request cannot be directly agreed to the US president. After crossing out the part, only 87 billion US dollars were submitted to Congress. The 300 million US dollars proposed by Marshall to the Principal of Nord were adjusted to 530 million. The purpose was to allow Nord to develop rapidly and restrain France.

Of course, it also means to expose the trump card of the Principal of Nord. After all, what the Principal of Nord now lacks is funds. The United States has given him sufficient funds. The President believes that under such circumstances, the Principal of Nord cannot show any clues.

The Paris United Parliament ended, and he didn't need to stay in France next, and returned to Nord Joseph to start a new round of plans. Before leaving, he met Marshall and took away a loan of 30 million US dollars from Bank of America in advance.

This 30 million US dollars is different from aid and needs to be returned. Marshall just used his influence to guarantee the Principality of Nord. This money has nothing to do with the US government.

The first thing Joseph did when he returned to the Principality of Nord was to establish Nord Royal Construction Company. At this time, Joseph remembered the loopholes he left behind. Others could not be compensated, and surface engineering still needs to be done. And at the moment when the Royal Construction Company was established, a prompt appeared in front of Joseph.

"Tip: After the construction company is completed, is the host bound?"

The sudden prompt made Joseph stunned, but he soon reacted, but after he reacted, he hesitated, not knowing whether there would be huge changes like the bound bank, especially the quality of the changes unknown.

After hesitating for a while, Joseph decided to bind him. His purpose was to give the construction system an open identity. The construction company was undoubtedly a part of the open plan. Next, Joseph would pretend to buy raw materials for construction, etc., so that everything would be realistic as much as possible...

"Tip: The host chooses a binding, please arrange a ship to transport construction materials as soon as possible, and recruit construction workers at the same time, otherwise the construction system will not be used."

What does it mean to search for something without any effort to get it? The situation at this time is.

The construction company after binding allows the construction system to be exposed under the sun. Although there are still some problems with the source of raw materials, it is not enough to arouse suspicion and detection by major powers such as the United States and the Soviet Union. Of course, Joseph still needs to delay this matter and continue to keep the Principality of Nord mysterious until the Marshall Plan officially begins.

Nord Cabinet:

"A large number of workers are recruited? No race, nationality? Can you have No German nationality for three years?"

Looking at the new law in his hand, Prime Minister Cres had a complicated look in his eyes. Joseph was becoming more and more casual about state affairs. Such important things were just notifications rather than negotiations. Cres had a feeling that he needed to leave Nord as soon as possible, otherwise...

"Prime Minister?"

"Since it's your highness's intention, then let me continue!"

What can Cres do? Now Joseph is in power and is vigilant about him. Even if he wants to oppose it, he has no ability. France cannot borrow the help from help, so he can only let Joseph go. Of course, the most important thing is that he understands that even if he opposes it, it has no effect. The people below will not obey it at all. Joseph handed the proposal to him just politely.

The assistant who sent the proposal looked meaningful, nodding and turning away as if he had received a satisfactory answer. This situation made Cres a little crazy. When could a small palace assistant treat him like this?

The new laws of the Principal of Nord have caused a little dissatisfaction. Naturally, the smaller the population, the better. After all, only in this way can they allocate more resources. Once the population increases, will the benefits they receive decrease?

This matter was discovered by Joseph at the first time and he met with cabinet members to discuss this issue. The population must increase, but these old Nord citizens are the basis of Joseph.

"The best way to do this is to improve the status of Nord citizens and reduce their hatred for the immigrant workers, Cres, what are your suggestions?"

"What Your Highness means to distinguish? But this will definitely be unfair to the workers who are preparing to immigrate, and it is not a good thing for the reputation of our Principal of Nord."

"Your Highness, it takes three years for immigrant workers to truly become Nord citizens. We can try our best to improve the status and wealth of our old citizens within these three years. The formation of the House of Commons in the future can also be regarded as a disguised improvement of their social status and welfare."

The one who spoke was James' son Andy, but at this time he was no longer the ordinary college student before, but the deputy director of the Nord Royal Guard. It was precisely because of this identity that he was qualified to attend the meeting.

Joseph wanted to increase Nord's population and Cres had not thought of a way to stop it. Now there is another House of Commons. Sure enough, Nord's trip is getting harder and harder to get through.

"Your Highness, Deputy Director Andy just said the House of Commons..."

Looking at Cres who was asking carefully, Joseph pretended to be careless and said, "I just had the idea that the times are developing, and we cannot stick to the rules, so I am going to form the House of Commons and the House of Lords to separate the powers together with the Cabinet..."

Before Joseph could finish his words, a look of excitement appeared on Cres's face, but soon the excitement was gradually replaced by doubt. Joseph had absolute right to speak in the Principality of Nord, so why did he disperse his power? Sure enough, Joseph's next words shocked and worried.

"I'm going to wait and mention this matter. Since Prime Minister Cres asked, let's discuss it together! The members of the House of Commons are elected by Nord... Honorary citizens, and enjoy freedom of public opinion, personnel and supervision of administrative officials."

Speaking of this, Joseph looked at Cres, who looked ugly, and there was no doubt that this matter was targeted at the cabinet, but the matter did not end there.

Joseph coughed lightly, and Andy hurriedly continued: "The members of the House of Lords are appointed by the Grand Duke. The House of Lords has the right to legislative power and has the right to veto the bill passed by the House of Commons."

OK! Through the explanations of the House of Lords and the House of Commons, Cres understood that Joseph was not prepared to decentralize power, but focused all his powers more closely in his hands, and even weakened the cabinet and government in disguise and reduced his own affairs.

The House of Commons has the ability to supervise administrative officials, which shows that Prime Minister Nord will first gain the support of the people (members of the House of Commons) and then satisfy Joseph (the House of Lords veto power) before he can become Prime Minister Nord. Such a prime minister must be loyal and capable to Joseph.
