"I want to know, if the government takes back the infrastructure projects built by the Qin's Group, what do we need to do?”
Half a year after Elizabeth's death, Peter, who had already been crowned, could not wait any longer. He gathered his ministers to discuss how to suppress the Qin King.
In the past six months, he had personally witnessed the Qin Corporation launch various new products and earn a huge sum of money.
In particular, the cheap anti-inflammatory drug named " Qin's No. 6 " had shocked the world at a speed that surpassed the profit of penicillin in just half a year!
The average price of a box of No. 6 medicine was three dollars, and the monthly sales volume was more than 20 million boxes.
A total of 60 million!
Even after deducting the cost, there should be a profit of 30 million.
This money-making speed was comparable to a money-printing machine. It really scared Peter, and it also made the world-famous super consortium feel a strong sense of crisis.
This was because the Qin Group's main business was not only pharmaceutical, but also various industries such as metals, machinery manufacturing, and even aerospace.
The Qin Group had money, and the contracted projects started one after another. The first project was the construction of railroads, roads, bridges, tunnels, and dozens of thermal power stations.
According to the Qin Group's world-shaking three-year plan, millions of workers would be mobilized within three years to build a total of 124900 kilometers of railway, 46000 kilometers of highway, and 67 thermal power stations with a total annual power generation of 32 billion Kilowatts in about 35 cities with Moscow as the center.
Together with other infrastructure projects, the investment was expected to reach tens of billions of rubles.
This three-year plan that seemed like a fantasy to outsiders instantly made Qin Jun the laughing stock of the world.
With so much money, why not invest it in a beautiful country that is free and democratic? Instead, he foolishly invested in Russia, which had unstable politics, a sluggish economy, and a weak industrial system?
Qin Jun did not care about the malicious speculations of the world. He continued to do as he pleased, recruiting hundreds of thousands of unemployed workers and starting a vigorous three-year construction plan.
The projects started one after another. The Qin Group solved the employment problem of hundreds of thousands of unemployed workers and the living problems of millions of workers 'families.
At this critical moment of the economic depression, Qin Jun was God, the savior!
In addition, the benefits that Qin Jun gave were really good. It was not much worse than the best benefits given to the workers in the beautiful country.
All of a sudden, Qin Jun's popularity among the people became higher and higher, and the Qin Group became stronger and stronger, making the sensitive Peter restless.
After thinking about it for a long time, and under the suggestion of Oravec, Peter decided to suppress Qin Jun and take back all the projects contracted to the Qin Group, leaving them to the noble companies to continue the construction.
"Your Majesty, please reconsider! If we take back the projects under construction of the Qin Group, the biggest loss will still be our Russian Empire, because we will have to pay 100 billion rubles for the breach of contract, which is 20 billion dollars.”
"Do we have that much money?"
Prime Minister Volentsov didn't understand what Peter was thinking.
Don't you know that the government has money?
Terminating the contract with the Qin Group meant paying 100 billion rubles as a penalty for breach of contract! You want to pay with your life?
However, Peter did not care about this. He was determined to chase Qin Jun away.
Firstly, Qin Jun was too outstanding, which hurt his self-esteem.
Two years ago, in the Krimlin Palace, Queen Elizabeth had compared him to the Qin Emperor. Even now, he could not forget the look of disdain in her eyes, and she would often grit her teeth in hatred.
You're just a lowly Qing citizen, what qualifications do you have to compare with me?
Secondly, after the Qin Group's project was completed and put into operation, the astronomical profits made him envious and jealous.
Third, Qin Jun's reputation in society was too high. Many people had forgotten that he was the emperor and were not stingy in praising Qin Jun.
Peter, whose self-esteem was so strong that his mind was a little twisted, could not wait any longer.
"I've decided to take back half of the projects and pay the penalty in installments. The government will take over these projects.”
No!
Volentsov shook his head and rejected this ridiculous order.
"Your Majesty, you can't, you can't, because the government has no money.”
"The construction plan of the Qin Group is too huge. The start-up capital of a project is at least 100 million rubles.”
"The national debt issued last month was not well received, and the bank's credit has also encountered an unprecedented credit crisis. The people would rather deposit their money in the Qin's Group's newly established Qin's Investment Bank than in the state-owned banks.”
" The lack of funds means that the unemployed workers who have just found a job will face the prospect of losing their jobs again, triggering a chain reaction…"
When Volenzov saw Peter's face gradually turn gloomy, he immediately chose to shut up.
What was a chain reaction? It was a riot!
Didn't Peter know?
It was crystal clear.
However, the simple-minded Peter did not consider this. After all, he had 1.8 million Russian troops in his hands. What riot could not be suppressed?
"If the government doesn't have money, does that mean there are no local entrepreneurs in Russia?”
"Yevnigan Heavy Industry Group, Leonid Oil Company... With so many companies with strong assets, can't they all join forces to take over the construction projects that they want from the Qin Group?”
Volenzov was speechless.
All the ministers were speechless.
Aren't these companies all owned by the nobles?
Volenzov and the others knew very well what these nobles were like.
They weren't nobles. They should be called capitalists, slave owners who were even more black-hearted than those black-hearted capitalists.
When the Qin Group's construction projects fell into the hands of these profit-seeking nobles, they would inevitably reduce the wages of workers and raise the charging standards of the railway, road, water, and electricity. This would cause the people to be furious.
"Your Majesty, I still don't agree to breach the contract!”
"Is that so? Then you can go back and rest."
？
Volenzov widened his eyes in disbelief.
Just because of this, you want to dismiss me?
Peter glanced at Vorunzov coldly and waved his hand to signal the new commander of the Imperial Guards, Oravec, to take out the diligent prime minister who had worked for the royal family for four to five years.
All the ministers were dumbfounded by this scene.
Isn't this too childish?
However, even though they were puzzled, no one dared to stand up and oppose them for their own interests.
Peter looked around in satisfaction and was in a good mood.
The feeling of power was so intoxicating.
"From today onwards, the Commander-in-Chief of the Guards, Oravec, will also be the Prime Minister.”
"Who agrees? Who disagrees?"
