Blackstone Code Chapter 751: Intervention

"I heard that the Chancellor of the Exchequer has been very troubled recently, and many people have come to his side to demonstrate?"

In the office, the Prime Minister's sudden question caused the assistant who was packing up the documents to be stunned for a moment.

In the past, the prime minister didn't care much about things (the previous article appeared less frequently), most of the time he just read the newspaper, drank coffee or tea, and then represented the emperor to participate in some work carried out in other places when necessary.

Sit or stand at the scene, and read out the speech that the emperor commissioned him to give.

This is also the origin of his nickname of "mascot". He hardly shows much of his own ideas. Many times he is just a display, a symbol.

Now he suddenly asked this question, and the assistant was a little uncomfortable, but he quickly responded, "Yes, it is said that someone smashed the glass of the Chancellor's house with a stone."

"That's horrific!", a look of... anger on the Prime Minister's face?

The assistant wasn't sure what he saw was anger, because he vaguely noticed that he first smiled when he lowered his head, and soon it was gone when he looked closely. He didn't know if it was his hallucination.

The Prime Minister frowned slightly and pondered for a moment, "Parades and demonstrations are normal, but there should be no such violence, notify the police station, disperse the crowd, and tell them why."

The assistant's answer was a few seconds late. His thinking obviously couldn't keep up with the Prime Minister's thoughts. He needed to think carefully for a few seconds to discover some of the hidden problems.

When he wanted to understand, he suddenly felt a little hot, "Doing this...will it anger the people who marched?"

His voice was soft and low, and what he wanted to express was not his own resistance to the order, but a complement.

The Prime Minister looked up at him, "Do you think it's the right choice to let these irrational marches go?"

“They can throw rocks in it today, they can shoot in it tomorrow, do what I say.”

The sound was not loud, but the pressure was not small. The assistant knew that he had made a mistake, and immediately agreed, and trotted out the door.

The prime minister looked at the slowly closing door and shook his head. It wasn't just him that had changed over the years, but the aides around him had become so insensitive.

What he wants to do is to provoke those who march, otherwise how will the next big drama start?

A few minutes later, the chief of the Imperial City Police Department received a call.

"Hello, I'm..., Your Excellency the Prime Minister is very concerned about what happened yesterday."

"The demonstrations of imperial citizens should be a way of expressing their own attitudes and opinions, not a way to induce violence. I hope you can disperse the gathered crowds as soon as possible and bring stable order to the imperial capital."

The chief of the police station holding the telephone receiver didn't show much expression, it was all bullshit, but out of courtesy, he dealt with it a little, "It's not that we don't want to do it, it's just that there are too many people and it's easy to cause riots ."

"We have dispatched the police on duty and nothing like this will happen again."

The man in the receiver was not satisfied with his answer, "You don't need to explain what you did, all you have to do is to disperse those people, who have fallen out of the definition of demonstrations by imperial law, they are evolving into A violent group."

"For the safety of the ministers, you should assume the responsibility of the police chief. This is not a discussion, this is an order."

"Or, you don't want to do it?"

The attitude is unprecedentedly tough, which also makes the police chief feel a little wrong. Everyone knows that the Prime Minister is just a decoration now.

Almost all discussions and decisions on national policies and political affairs are the result of direct negotiation between His Majesty the Emperor and the ministers. The Prime Minister is often on the sidelines and occasionally expresses his views, but not many people adopt them. .

Now that the Prime Minister's Office is suddenly so aggressive and aggressive, the police chief realizes that a storm is coming.

He was agitated, a little guy of his level has no ability to resist in such a level of struggle, he immediately said solemnly, "I think I know what to do, I will disperse the crowd outside the Chancellor's house as soon as possible, To ensure the safety of life and property of the imperial ministers.”

Three minutes later, orders were issued from the Imperial City Police Department, including the Second Police Department, and they also received requests for cooperation.

There are nine police departments in the Gafra Empire, of which the first police department is responsible for the daily work of the police.

The Second Police Department is the armed police. Their job is to suppress riots. After all, this is not a free country.

The Seventh Police Department belongs to the secret police and is responsible for arresting some domestic criminals who may threaten national security.

The various other police departments also have their own responsibilities, and they take the place of the military in the homeland to some extent.

During the war before this, there was even a call from society to throw the police out as soldiers rather than shame the Army out.

Of course, this statement is not supported by the police, who don't want to die, but it also reflects that the police are still quite a powerful department in Gavra, even more than the army.

First, the Second Police Department responded quickly and dispatched some armored vehicles and armed police to the incident site to deal with the incident.

Meanwhile, the Chancellor of the Exchequer is not sitting at home in a panic, as the outside world thinks.

Although he didn't go anywhere at home, there was no sign of panic on his face. Except for the slow sullenness of those under his opponent, there was no panic.

He doesn't believe that the public will storm his mansion. Assaulting the private mansion of aristocrats is a serious crime in the empire, and it is the kind of life imprisonment.

If there are serious consequences, they may directly enjoy the punishment that only nobles can enjoy - hanging.

Still hanged in front of many people in Empire Plaza, although this kind of treatment seems to be an honor for some people, it does not mean that some people really want to be hanged in front of people.

Many, many years ago, there was a saying among some gangsters that "you will be hanged if you die" to express your ambitions for the future of your career.

The Chancellor of the Exchequer not only did not take care of those people at the door, but even arranged for some people to find ways to promote further actions. He is now racing against time, and he will do any method that can compete for time, whether it is low or not.

He wants to portray himself as a victim, and then get sympathy points, it would be better if he could get hurt a little bit, but of course it's not really suitable for him to come forward now.

It's like saying sorry immediately after someone punched you in the face, you will never forgive this person when you are angry, you must punch back.

But if this person runs away after hitting you, and after waiting for three or five days, someone comes to persuade you to forget about it, and if this person comes forward and apologizes, you will feel that it is nothing but showing your greatness. In addition, maybe they will chat with each other for a few words.

Now the people's money has just been defrauded because of the mistakes caused by the people in the finance department receiving black money. These people are getting angry. Even if the Chancellor of the Exchequer kneels down at this time and asks these people to forgive them and return their money to them, they will not be the same. Will listen, but also scold him a few words.

But wait a minute, wait for these people's emotional peaks to pass, and then cooperate with the investigation results, plus he appears in the image of grievance or even injury, and asks the people's forgiveness, the people are likely to forgive him.

Of course, he will also come up with corresponding disposal methods to dispose of the remaining money that has not been transferred in time, as well as disposal plans for others.

So the priority right now is not to show anything, it will only make things messier.

As long as he has bought this time and can sell his misery to gain the support of some people, he will have more time to solve some problems.

Clean from the inside, throw some people out, and it's settled.

He has arranged for people to interview some heavyweight listed companies, hoping that these people can cooperate with him and pull up the index.

As for the operation method, it is also very simple, that is, to frequently change hands to maximize the factor, and then pull up the stock prices of these weighted stocks, stop the downward trend of the financial index, and pull it up again.

This is beneficial and harmless to those listed companies. As the company's stock price increases, the value of their shareholders will increase, including the aristocrats behind them, and their wealth will also expand.

When this matter is dealt with, he will find a few unimportant subordinates and throw them out as scapegoats, and properly accept the interference of some external forces, for example, the emperor wants to install his confidants, etc., in order to try to solve the predicament first. crack.

He's got a way to turn things around bit by bit.

He thought about the whole plan for a whole day. He thought that there was no problem with this plan, as long as he quietly waited for the result.

But at this time, the noise from outside the window made him frown, and he heard the neat steps~IndoMTL.com~ This kind of sound cannot appear on ordinary people, and there are other forces intervening.

He immediately stood up, walked to the window, and saw the armed police...

Those police officers held a weapon similar to a long-rod hammer, except that the hammer in the weapon was metal, and now their hammer is a metal covered with a layer of rubber.

It hurts to hit people, but it's unlikely to cause irreversible results, such as hammering the head or something, it will just knock people out.

The neat police phalanx pressed forward one step at a time, and the patrol cars immediately followed began to broadcast, asking people to disband immediately and leave here, otherwise they will be held legally accountable.

The Chancellor of the Exchequer stared at these people in astonishment. He could not have imagined that he, the "victim", didn't call the police. What are the police meddling with?

He turned his head sharply, returned to the table with a cannibal expression on his face, and picked up the phone to call the police chief, but unfortunately, no one answered.

If he could have looked at the window a little longer, he would have found the Chief of Police in the phalanx...
