Outside Venice beyond more than ten kilometers, in an ancient castle, Austria Viscount Rabiee is holding the strong welcoming banquet, the invited leading character just returned to soon Baron Corney. 威尼斯城外十几公里外,一座古老的城堡中,奥拉比子爵正在举行浓重的欢迎宴会,宴请的主人公正是刚刚返回不久的菲克尼男爵。 This first time was not Corney arrived here, but with came previous time differently, the specification of welcoming banquet was higher. 这不是菲克尼第一次来到这里了,只不过和上一次前来不一样,欢迎宴会的规格高了很多。 Can look, this Austria Viscount Rabiee is very warm, is different from the previous time, merely is only courtesy invitation. 看得出来,这次奥拉比子爵很热情,不同于上次,仅仅只是礼节性的宴请。 Asked in bustling streets no one poorly, has the distant relative in the remote mountain richly. 穷在闹市无人问,富在深山有远亲。 poor|Fei Baron Corney deep experience. Ten years ago he offers loans to go to the colony to develop, but was taunted a lot ; Until now, the past taunt had turned into the praise. 菲克尼男爵深深的体会了一把。十年前他举债前往殖民地发展,可没少被人嘲讽;时至今日,昔日的嘲讽已经变成了赞美。 Even he in the African continent, to the well-informed aristocrats, these is not the barrier. 即便是他远在非洲大陆,对消息灵通的贵族们来说,这些都不是障碍。 At this time is different in those days, ten years ago African continent in everyone eyes is: The poisonous insect beast of prey appears and disappears, the disease plague to run amuck ; The present African continent has turned: Hope field. 今时不同往日,十年前的非洲大陆在大家眼中就是:毒虫猛兽出没、疾病瘟疫横行;现在的非洲大陆已经变成了:希望的田野。 The upper dogs were not accused, Baron Corney enjoyment of sufficient wind to a treatment of upper dog, making his vanity obtain satisfaction. 成功者是不受指责的,菲克尼男爵充风的享受到了一次成功者的待遇,让他的虚荣心得到了满足。 Austria that develops in the African continent benefits the aristocrat to be many, but was distributed after vast Africa, that could not bump into several. 在非洲大陆发展的奥地利贵族不少,可是分布在了辽阔非洲后,那就碰不到几个了。 Everyone is busy getting rich, how many also there are to have the leisurely and carefree mood, daily holds the banquet? 况且,大家都忙着发财,又有几个有闲情逸致,天天举办宴会呢？ poor|Fei Corney attended the banquet also to have the goal, must promote the colony localization, cannot leave the support of local aristocrats. 菲克尼参加宴会也不是没有目的,要推动殖民地本土化,就离不开本土贵族们的支持。 Now supports the colony localization, besides person who develops in the African continent, the capitalist in local is also a main strength, however this also by far insufficient. 现在支持殖民地本土化的,除了在非洲大陆发展的人外,本土的资本家也是一股主要的力量,然而这还远远不够。 Austria benefits is not UK , France, the capitalists right to speak politically is very low. Even Baron Corney these aristocrat who develops in Africa, politically the right to speak is still higher than the capitalist. 奥地利不是英法,资本家们在政治上的话语权很低。就算是菲克尼男爵这些在非洲发展的贵族,在政治上发言权也比资本家要高。 This time main force that promotes the colony localization, is their these aristocrats. 这次推动殖民地本土化的主力,就是他们这些贵族。 Everyone has the relations through five person and this world, perhaps was extremely exaggerating ; However benefits all aristocrats to connect Austria through five aristocrats, does not have any difficulty. 通过五个人和这个世界上所有人扯上关系,或许是太过夸张了;不过通过五个贵族把奥地利所有的贵族串联起来,就没有什么难度了。 ...... …… poor|Fei Baron Corney said with a laugh: „The Austria Rabbi, ten years does not see in a flash, never expected that Harrington, Gardner and Wintons were so big, will be able to visit them to become the outstanding soldier.” 菲克尼男爵笑呵呵的说:“奥拉比,一晃十年不见,没有想到哈灵顿、加德纳和德温顿都这么大了,看得出来他们都会成为优秀的军人。” Austria Viscount Rabiee natural reply: „Yes, I am proud for their several.” 奥拉比子爵理所当然的回答道:“是的,我为他们几个感到骄傲。” Joining the army is Austria benefits the tradition of aristocrat, the children of the nobility must undergo the military training since childhood, becomes an outstanding soldier is the pursue of many children of the nobility. 从军是奥地利贵族的传统,贵族子弟从小都要接受军事训练,成为一名优秀的军人是很多贵族子弟的追求。 Modest, in Europe is not the moral excellence, this will only make one think that is the false performance. 谦虚,在欧洲可不是什么美德,这只会让人认为是虚伪的表现。 Austria Viscount Billah thinks that his son will become the outstanding soldier, will acknowledge frankly and uprightly, this is his true idea. 奥比拉子爵认为他的儿子会成为优秀的军人,就会光明正大的承认,这是他内心的真实想法。 Asking that poor|Fei Baron Corney cares about: „You prepare to send them to the army service, goes to the navy service?” 菲克尼男爵关心的问道:“你准备送他们去陆军服役,还是去海军服役？” In recent years, Austria benefits the position large scale enhancement of navy, almost can keep pace with the army. 最近几年,奥地利海军的地位大幅度提高,几乎可以和陆军并驾齐驱了。 Chooses to enter the children of the nobility of navy from the beginning, holds the opportunity that this navy expanded greatly to skyrocket and have a meteoric rise. 很多一开始选择进入海军的贵族子弟,抓住了这个海军大扩的机遇扶摇直上、平步青云。 Now the children of the nobility serve, were many a choice- navy. 现在贵族子弟服役,就多了一个选择-海军。 The Austria Rabbi said proudly: „ Harrington and Wintons go to the army service and Gardner to go to the navy service, they were admitted to the military academy. 奥拉比自豪的说:“哈灵顿和德温顿去陆军服役、加德纳去海军服役,他们都考上了军校。 Harrington studies in the Vienna artillery command academy, has graduated crossed for a week to enlist again, Gardner and Wintons this time come back to deliver him to enlist. 哈灵顿在维也纳炮兵指挥学院读书,已经毕业了再过一个多星期就入伍了,加德纳和德温顿这次回来就是送他入伍的。 Wintons studies in the Munich infantry command academy, on third grade ; Gardner studies in main house gate Austria Libyan Naval War College, on just now first grade. 德温顿在慕尼黑步兵指挥学院读书,才上三年级;加德纳就在家门口的奥地利海军学院读书,才刚上一年级。 Time that poor|Fei Corney, you comes back, if late again, could not see them. ” 菲克尼,你回来的正是时候,如果再晚点儿的话,就见不到他们了。” This is typical two bets, as unceasing opening of overseas colony, the well-informed aristocrats, have realized the importance of navy. 这是典型的两头下注,随着海外殖民地的不断开辟,消息灵通的贵族们,已经认识到了海军的重要性。 Without the state expediency strategic center of gravity, many aristocrats will bet in two in the future. The land navy conflict that Austria benefits in any case is not big, does might also as well. 在不确定国家未来战略重心的情况下,很多贵族都在两头下注。反正奥地利的陆海军冲突不大,这么干也无妨。 Three sons were admitted to the military academy, the Austria Rabbi indeed had the proud capital. 三个儿子都考入了军校,奥拉比的确有骄傲的资本。 Although the aristocrat inborn beginning is higher, the military academy that but Austria benefits similarly is not that on easy. The national land navy military academy altogether has 9, every year enrollment population also more than 3500 people, but the number of applicants has not been lower than 100,000. 尽管贵族天生起点更高,可奥地利的军校同样不是那么容易上的。全国陆海军军校共有九所,每年的录取人数也不过3500多人,而报考人数就没有低于过十万。 This is the impact that the compulsory education brings. Was rapidly increased by the person of elementary education, the result good student was admitted to the middle school, can apply for the student loans to continue the studies, this directly caused the middle-school student number rapidly to increase. 这是义务教育带来的冲击。受过基础教育的人急剧增加,成绩好的学生考上了中学,可以申请到助学贷款继续学业,这就直接导致了中学生数量急剧增加。 Austria Libyan Military Academy recruits students and university recruitment of students is separates, by the examinee can register , the middle staggered in any case for three months, the mutual will influence not enroll the result. 奥地利军校招生和大学招生是分开的,考生两边都可以报考,反正中间错开了三个月时间,不会互相影响录取结果。 Without a doubt, this is the mighty force passes the time of single-plank bridge. The university, is a military academy, the students reported in advance said again. 毫无疑问,这是千军万马过独木桥的时代。无论是大学,还是军校,学生们都是先报了再说。 The grassroots student who can clash, did not study the tyrant unable to miss many, at least in the literacy class was so. 能够一路冲出来的草根学生,不是学霸也差不了多少了,至少在文化课上是如此。 Even that by the resource constraint, they were educated is unable to compare with the children of the nobility, but always has the talent and lucky fellow crops up. 即便是受资源限制,他们接受的教育无法和贵族子弟比,可是总有天才和幸运儿冒头。 If only and grassroots student competes, is not anything. The issue is the children of the nobility interior competition is also very fierce, this age Austria benefits is not popular the only child, each and every family basically is 35 starts. 如果只是和草根学生竞争,那么也不算啥。问题是贵族子弟内部竞争也很激烈,这个年代奥地利可不流行独生子女,家家户户基本上都是三五个起步。 Large group of aristocrat collateral branch juniors, these people, although does not have the title to inherit, but was not equal to their child education on the difference. 还有人数众多的贵族旁支子弟,这些人虽然没有爵位可以继承,可是并不等于他们的子女教育就差了。 Middle class that now Austria benefits, basically is these people. The doctor, teacher and attorney, the small-scale merchant, most ancestors are the aristocrats. 现在奥地利的中产阶级,基本上都是这些人。医生、教师、律师、中小商人,大部分祖上都是贵族。 The truly pure grassroots, can rise were too few. Without the knowledge background, without the social personal connection, the lucky fellow who can grow, is the children of destiny. 真正纯粹的草根,能够崛起的太少了。没有知识底蕴,没有社会人脉,能够成长起来的幸运儿,都是天命之子。 At present Austria benefits in the university, the aristocrat student proportion only then 31.1, the ordinary household students are 1.2, remaining is this middle class community. 目前奥地利大学中,贵族学生比例只有31.1,普通家庭学生更是只有1.2,剩下的都是这个中产阶级群体。 In the military academy the children of the nobility were in the dominant position, approximately accounted for total students 64.8, the middle class occupied total students 34.3, the student who the ordinary household came can ignore, but also did not have the foreign student to be many. 军校中还是贵族子弟占据了主导地位,约占总学生人数的64.8,中产阶级占据了总学生人数的34.3,普通家庭出身的学生可以忽略不计,还没留学生多。 Without the means that this is the result of fair competition. The reality is so brutal, starts from the public compulsory education, lost on the starting line. 没办法,这就是公平竞争的结果。现实就这么残酷,从公立义务教育开始,就输在了起跑线上。 In the majority in the elementary school stage ordinary household students, instead became a few to the middle school stage ordinary household students. Superficially, Austria Libyan Elementary School raises the probability of middle school about 8. 在小学阶段普通家庭学生占多数,到了中学阶段普通家庭学生反而成为了少数。表面上来看,奥地利小学升中学的几率在八左右。 However the compulsory education ended, the rich man children are almost 100% can enter a higher school, this proportion such by drawing. 然而义务教育结束了,有钱人子女几乎是百分之百可以升学,这个比例就这么被拉了上去。 The grassroots scholar who the ordinary household comes does not study the tyrant, basically without many opportunities. They must in the entrance examination, enters forefront 1% be able to attain the stipend. 普通家庭出身的草根学子不是学霸,基本上没有多少机会。他们必须要在升学考试中,进入最前面的百分之一才拿得到助学金。 This prepared to the talent, in the educational resources limited age, is the elite education that the Austria advantage adopts. 这本来就是给天才准备的,在教育资源有限的年代,奥地利采取的就是精英化教育。 The military academy is most obvious, the student who since childhood undergoes the strict military training naturally had the advantage, however this needs to invest massively, since is not the ordinary household can bear. 军校最为明显,从小接受严格军事训练的学生自然占据了优势,然而这需要大量的投入,不是普通家庭能够负担起的。 The average person culture result is high, various professional exam result in addition, destiny that only then eliminates. Can say the subject of testing are more, pass student more does not have the opportunity. 普通人文化成绩再高,把各项专业考试成绩一加,还是只有淘汰的命运。可以说考的科目越多,普通学生就越没有机会。 Improves the quality of teaching of public education, increases these major course teachings. Very regrettable, this seemingly happy tentative plan, thinks to be OK. 提高公立教育的教学质量,增加这些专业课教学。很遗憾,这看上去美好的设想,想想就可以了。 Increases a class, means that increases an education expenditure. According to the standard of children of the nobility conducts the compulsory education, the enough Vienna government goes bankrupt ten times. 增加一门课,意味着增加一笔教育支出。按照贵族子弟的标准搞义务教育,足够维也纳政府破产十次。 Only if in the society increases to the ordinary demand for talent quantity, otherwise the university increased enrollment is not possible, the higher education of this age was too expensive. 除非社会上对普通人才需求量增加,否则大学扩招是不可能的,这个年代的高等教育太贵了。 Now even if the children of the nobility, can have the college education, or is the military academy education, not over 35. 现在即便是贵族子弟,能够接受大学教育,或者是军校教育的,也不会超过35。 Naturally the first-grade technical colleges, or are the diploma mills, that had not limited, rich can read. 当然次一等的技术院校,或者是野鸡大学,那就没有限制了,有钱都可以读。 poor|Fei Baron Corney said calm: „Yes, I am very it seems like lucky!” 菲克尼男爵淡定的说:“是么,看来我真的很幸运！” Austria Viscount Rabiee affirmative reply: „Naturally!” 奥拉比子爵肯定的回答道:“当然！” poor|Fei Baron Corney drank small wine , to continue to ask: „What army service Harrington, prepares the African continent area to develop, does that side establish the meritorious military service opportunity to be much bigger?” 菲克尼男爵喝了一小口葡萄酒,继续问道:“哈灵顿在什么部队服役,有没有准备到非洲大陆地区发展,那边立下战功的机会要大得多？” This was Baron Corney is opening the condition. Without the means that must obtain the local aristocrats to support the colony integration, naturally must speak with the benefit. 这是菲克尼男爵在开条件了。没有办法,要获得本土贵族们支持殖民地一体化,自然要用利益说话。 Most aristocrats will face an issue, the later generation juniors are many, but the title only has one. 大多数贵族都会面临一个问题,后辈子弟很多,可是爵位却只有一个。 The eldest son inherited the title, how then the following second son does arrange? 长子继承了爵位,那么后面的次子又怎么安排呢？ According to the convention of German area, rich can also divide an industry to give them. Without money either lets their going out wanderer, either sends them to the church to be the father. 按照德意志地区的惯例,有钱还可以分一笔产业给他们。没钱的要么让他们自己出去闯荡,要么就送他们去教堂做神父。 After religious reform, the perquisite of church already not so many. The church in economical lively area is good, some are the business makes money, if the luck were not good to be divided the poor area, that can only eat the rice polishings to swallow the vegetable/dish. 宗教改革过后,教堂的油水已经没那么多了。经济繁华地区的教堂还好,有的是业务捞钱,要是运气不好分到了贫困地区,那就只能吃糠咽菜了。 The going out wanderer, this only suits the family whose fortunes are on the decline. Majority uses family's human relations, looks for a dignified work to them, the aristocrat collateral branch, or buys off the middle class to come. 外出闯荡,这只适合于破落户。大部分都是利用家族的人脉关系,给他们找一份体面的工作,贵族旁支、或者赎买中产阶级就是这么来的。 The opportunity in native place are few, competition is fierce, but was different to the colony. If there is a family property, is willing to pound the resources to pound a title. 本土的机会少、竞争激烈,但是到了殖民地就不一样了。如果有家底,舍得砸资源都可以砸出一个爵位来。 If obtained the coordination of local bully, then this difficulty can also continue to reduce. After all the war regarding the colony, that is will happen regularly. 如果获得了地头蛇的配合,那么这个难度还可以继续降低。毕竟战争对于殖民地来说,那是隔三差五就会发生的。 Besides fishing for military exploit, can enter in the colony government to develop. Once the colony localization passes, these officer positions are also when production costs rise, prices rise too. 除了捞取军功外,也可以进入殖民地政府中发展。一旦殖民地本土化通过,这些官位也是水涨船高。 Also or does business and opens the plantation in the colony, these are the roads, and successful nature also very high. 又或者是在殖民地做生意、开辟种植园,这些都是路,并且成功性还非常的高。 The Austria Rabbi moved, his such high high-standard reception Baron Corney, relates besides two people cousins, he also prepares the resource to get so far as the noble title to several sons. 奥拉比动心了,他这么高规格接待菲克尼男爵,除了两人的表兄弟关系外,他还准备投入资源给几个儿子弄到贵族头衔。 Do not look at that his several sons entered the military academy, seems like future light. In fact the Austria Rabbi was clear, the peace age can mix to raise one's head were too few. 不要看他的几个儿子都进入了军校,看上去前途一片光明。实际上奥拉比清楚,和平年代能够混出头的太少了。 Do not say the viscount descendant, even if there is duke title to enter the army, to retirement time, may not the blending general. 不要说子爵后代,就算是顶着公爵头衔进入军队,到了退役的时候,都不一定能够混成将军。 Without the meritorious military service, everyone can only boil the qualifications. 没有战功,大家都只能熬资历。 After all everyone has the military education since childhood, whose ability will not be bad. No means showed that your ability is a notch above everybody else, why first to promote you? 毕竟大家都是从小接受军事教育的,谁的能力都不会太差。没有办法证明你的能力超人一等,凭什么先提拔你？ The army with the place of strength speech, the best way spoke with the meritorious military service. It is a pity that this age's war, most also bullies an earth on the colony, is not enough to go around. 军队是用实力说话的地方,最好的办法就是用战功说话。遗憾的是这个年代的战争,最多也就殖民地欺负一下土著,还是僧多粥少。 The Austria Rabbi thinks saying: „ Had not determined, the recruit who now he has not enlisted, at least also has six months from the assignment army. 奥拉比想了想说:“还没有确定,现在他只是未入伍的新兵,距离分配部队至少还有半年时间。 If to the African colony, then must trouble your uncle to look. ” 如果到了非洲殖民地,那么就要麻烦你这位叔叔照顾了。” Without a doubt, the Austria Rabbi has not set firm resolve. 毫无疑问,奥拉比还没有下定决心。 As an established aristocrat, he many personal connections in the army, uses the service army that these relations decide the son, is not difficult to accomplish. 作为一名老牌贵族,他在军队中还是有不少人脉的,利用这些关系决定儿子的服役部队,还是不难办到。 But promotes the colony localization, is not that simple. Just like many people, the Austria Rabbi after the worry colony localization, own industry will also be attacked. 可是推动殖民地本土化,也不是那么简单。和很多人一样,奥拉比也在担心殖民地本土化后,自家的产业会受到冲击。 After all colony other are not many, is the land are many. Once so many lands develop, the agricultural product estimated that will be attacked the white vegetable price. 毕竟殖民地别的不多,就是土地多。这么多土地一旦开发出来,农产品估计会被冲击到白菜价。 Has not obtained the accurate answer, Baron Corney still the reply of elegant bearing: „Naturally, I am his uncle!” 没有得到准确的答复,菲克尼男爵依然风度翩翩的回答道:“当然,我是他的叔叔嘛！” In the heart can only sigh secretly, without catching up with time, if several sons of Austria Rabbi were bigger are good. 心中只能暗自感叹,没有赶上好时候,如果奥拉比的几个儿子再大一些就好了。 Best was just retired from the army, worried for the future. Then does not need him to open the mouth, this group of boys will help convince the father. 最好是刚刚从军队中退役,为前途发愁的时候。那么不用他开口,这帮小子就会帮忙说服父亲。 In this banquet, Baron Corney had convinced three aristocrats to support the colony localization, these people basically are because the next generation supports. 在这场宴会中,菲克尼男爵已经先后说服了三名贵族支持殖民地本土化,这些人基本上都是因为下一代才支持的。 The colony impacts the local agriculture, that is land many aristocrats is worried. If the land did not have, but also worries about these to do? 殖民地冲击本土农业,那是土地多的贵族才担心的。如果土地都没有了,还操心这些干嘛？ After the land buys off, Austria benefits the land in aristocrat hand, in fact are not many. Arrived the present aristocrat hand in land, had dropped to 20 of insufficient national total acreage. 土地赎买过后,奥地利贵族手中的土地,实际上已经不多了。到了现在贵族手中的土地,已经下降到不足全国土地总面积的20。 Since the overseas colony opens, including the imperial family, many big aristocrats is underselling the land in hand one after another. 自从海外殖民地开辟过后,包括皇室在内,很多大贵族都在陆续抛售手中的土地。 This is the benefit decision, with selling the fund of land, opens the plantation in the overseas, often can obtain the beforehand several times, even is more than ten times of land areas. 这是利益决定的,用出售土地的资金,在海外开辟种植园,往往可以获得之前数倍、甚至是十几倍的土地面积。 Although the colony land is not valuable, but the industrial crop value that does not affect these lands to deliver. Perhaps each mu land management cannot compare the native place, but cannot support the land to be many! 尽管殖民地土地不值钱,可是并不影响这些土地产出的经济作物价值。或许每亩土地收益比不上本土,可是架不住土地多啊！ The quantity came up, the income also came up. The appearance of big plantation, promoted the progress of agricultural culivation technique. 数量上去了,收益也就上去了。大种植园的出现,也推动了农业耕作技术的进步。 The mechanized agriculture, is the popular rate of Africa continually to rise in Austria. What a pity the internal combustion engine has not come out, the steam engine machinery was too unwieldy, not aspect. 机械化农业,在奥属非洲的普及率不断上升。可惜内燃机还没有出来,蒸汽机机械太笨重了,一点儿也不方面。 Under the stimulation of benefit, is promoting the colony localization truly secretly, in fact Franz is the big aristocrat of head. 在利益的刺激下,真正在幕后推动殖民地本土化的,实际上还是弗朗茨为首的大贵族。 But everyone pays attention to the political influence, has not indicated the standpoint directly. Instead promoted Baron Corney these young aristocrats to break through enemy lines, tests domestic populace's response. 只不过大家注意政治影响,没有直接表明立场。反而推出了菲克尼男爵这些小贵族冲锋陷阵,试探国内民众的反应。
