"Protest, protest! This is forcing us to a dead end!”
" And I heard that it was the new emperor who decided to break the contract. The prime minister, Count Volenzov, firmly opposed it and was even dismissed by the emperor. The commander of the Imperial Guards, Oravec, took over…"
"Are you crazy? Why did His Majesty breach the contract? He didn't know that only the Qin Group could invest funds to save the high employment rate?”
"I don't understand. I think it should be the aristocratic group playing tricks. They're jealous of the Qin Group, which is getting more and more profitable.”
"Heh, these villains. It's fine if they can't do it, but they won't allow others to be stronger than them! The Qin's Group earns money from foreigners, but they treat us Russians like family. Just by the fact that the Qin's Group's hospital treats its employees and their family members at a low price, you can tell that this is a company with a conscience!”
"Protest, we want to go on strike to protest and ask the emperor to stop breaching the contract!”
"Yes, strike. As long as we strike, the emperor will definitely compromise!”
" Not good. The Qin's Group has just published a public statement, announcing that the Russian government maliciously breached the contract, causing the Qin's Group to suffer heavy losses. After discussion by the Qin's Group's board of directors, the Qin's Group Co., Ltd. will withdraw its capital and leave Russia starting from January next year…"
Boom!
This news struck everyone as if they were struck by lightning.
The Qin Corporation was leaving?
If it left, wouldn't it mean that he would never have the chance to work in the Qin Group again?
Meanwhile, the employees who had not been laid off all over the country were furious!
With the departure of the Qin Corporation, the beautiful life that they had longed for would vanish into thin air and they would once again return to the life of being unemployed and starving.
Not only were the workers affiliated with the Qin Group unable to sit still, but even the other Russians could not understand what the government was thinking! What was the purpose of doing this?
Forcing Qin Jun away would benefit Russia?
No!
Because the Qin Group's three-year construction plan was completed, all the Russians would benefit. It would also bring high taxes to the government, and the economy would take off quickly.
Therefore, under the instigation of Qin Jun, the workers who were already living in poverty due to the economic depression exploded like an ignited explosive barrel!
In just 24 hours, 50% of the workers in Russia chose to go on strike and took to the streets to protest against the government's absurd behavior.
It was even worse in Moscow, where 300,000 workers gathered on the streets to protest, and more and more workers 'families joined the wave of protests.
……
The Palace of the Klimlin.
In the face of the wave of protests, Peter was stunned. The Minister of the Privy Council panicked and hurriedly asked Peter to withdraw the order to quell the public anger.
This was the only way to remedy the situation!
But would Peter agree to give in?
Impossible!
Under the influence of various extreme ideas instilled by Oravec, Peter stubbornly believed that he was the god of Russia and that all Russians had to obey the oracle of God.
Whoever objected was disrespectful to God and should be punished!
Moreover, Peter had hated Qin Jun for a long time. Now that the workers 'strike was getting more and more intense because of Qin Jun, how could he retract his order and give in to Qin Jun?
In the hall, Peter sat on the throne and thought about it with the ministers, hoping to find a way to resolve the crisis.
Oravec rolled his eyes and knew it was time to stand up.
"Your Majesty, I suggest sending troops to suppress them!”
No!
Catherine appeared in time and said coldly,"Orawec, are you an idiot?”
"Sending troops to suppress it will only worsen the situation and lead to riots.”
"Even worse, there might even be a civil war!”
Damn it, this disgusting woman.
Before Oravec could retort, Peter stood up and cursed,"Get lost. Since when did you have the right to interfere in state affairs?”
"Get out!"
Catherine didn't take Peter's bad attitude to heart at all.
Because this idiot was about to be overthrown by the angry Russian people. There was no need to fuss over this pitiful person.
It was also Qin Jun's request to come here today.
She argued with reason to let the angry Russian people know that the Empress was the wisest and wholeheartedly thought of the people.
"Your Majesty, even if you kill me today, I will stop you from continuing your mistakes!”
"We can't go back on our word. This isn't just a matter of integrity, it also affects the economy and many other aspects.”
"Let me give you some data. Since the Qin Group officially started its three-year construction plan half a year ago, dozens of large-scale projects have been launched, solving the employment problem of 1.3 million unemployed workers and greatly easing the heavy impact of the economic depression.”
"Also, Qin Jun has opened dozens of hospitals in major cities one after another. He has implemented the welfare benefits of reducing half of the medical fees for employees and 40% for family members, benefiting more than seven million people.”
"Moreover, the Qin Group has launched a three-year construction plan to drive nearly 20,000 small and medium-sized enterprises that supply materials out of the economic depression and reduce the employment rate from 16% to 8%.”
"Let's talk about the Qin Group's tax. Last year alone, the Qin Group paid 2.34 billion rubles, accounting for 36% of the total government tax.”
"Your Majesty, do you really want to force the Qin Group away?”
As soon as Catherine finished speaking, except for Peter, who was still expressionless, all the ministers looked relieved.
Finally, someone dared to stand up and object!
No matter how stubborn the Emperor was, he wouldn't continue to make mistakes, right?
However, they underestimated Peter's self-esteem.
The emperor's words were like gold and jade. He would not admit his mistakes, nor would he lower his head to anyone.
If Mr. Qin knew what Peter was thinking, he would definitely give Oravec a chicken drumstick.
Not bad, very good. The ideas instilled in Peter were perfect.
As an emperor, he should be the only one in the world!
At this time, the important minister, Chief of Staff of the Army, Anatoly, spoke.
"Your Majesty, I agree with the Empress 'suggestion. We can't force the Qin Group away!”
Hmm?
Seeing that the Army Chief of Staff was on Catherine's side, Peter was even more furious.
"Marshal Anatoli, are you sure you want to disobey my order?”
"Your Majesty, while the military is unconditionally loyal to the Emperor, they must also protect the safety of the Russian people. This is the meaning of the existence of the military.”
Anatoli replied in a neither servile nor overbearing manner. Peter was speechless, and the ministers heaved a long sigh of relief.
If the military made their stand clear, the Emperor would probably change his mind, right?
However, no one noticed that a faint smile flashed across Catherine's eyes!
