Hears the president questioned in Karran heart one startled, covered the startled color rapidly, replied: „Had reached the agreement on the whole, but some details have not come to an arrangement.” 听到总统的问话卡伦心中一惊,迅速掩盖住了惊慌之色,回答道:“大体上已经达成了共识,只是还有一些细节没有谈妥。” Saying that Preetorius is without turning a hair: „I knew, you get down!” 小比勒陀利乌斯面不改色的说道:“我知道了,你下去吧！” In the sound slightly has a worried, obviously his innermost feelings are not calm. Preetorius is not a sage, he is unable to achieve mind like still water in the face of the benefit. 声音中略带有一丝忧愁,显然他的内心并不平静。小比勒陀利乌斯不是圣人,在利益面前他也无法做到心如止水。 Karran's expression has not hidden the truth from his eye, if not out of the anticipation, his trusted subordinate also and Austria has contacted altruistic, even there is a possibility to betray. 卡伦的表情没有瞒过他的眼睛,如果不出意料的话,他这位亲信也和奥地利人接触过了,甚至有可能已经背叛。 Can sit to the present position, Preetorius naturally is a smart person. No matter Karran does have the betrayal, he will not confirm. 能够坐到现在的位置上,小比勒陀利乌斯自然是聪明人。不管卡伦有没有背叛,他都不会去验证。 Arrived present this step, this is unimportant. Even if as before stays loyal to him, refuses to accept the Austria altruistic buy, even also confessed all these to him, how can that? 到了现在这一步,这已经不重要了。就算是依旧对他保持忠诚,拒绝接受奥地利人的收买,甚至还向他坦白这一切,那又能怎么样？ Preetorius cannot do to Austria altruistic, even to the Vienna government protested that is undoable. If both sides tore to pieces the facial skin publicly, he final giving favored treatment cannot preserve. 小比勒陀利乌斯奈何不了奥地利人,甚至向维也纳政府抗议都不能做。要是双方公开撕破了脸皮,他连最后的优待都保不住。 If the domestic real power faction and Austria altruistic negotiations do not work out, his president can also play the role. Now all smooth, naturally did not need him. 如果国内的实力派和奥地利人谈判进展不顺利,他这个总统还可以发挥作用。现在一切顺利,自然就不需要他了。 Initial time, Preetorius also prepares on behalf of the government and Austria altruistic negotiations, seeks more advantageous political status for everyone. 最初的时候,小比勒陀利乌斯还准备以政府的名义和奥地利人谈判,为大家争取更加有利的政治地位。 The reality hits the face, after the Vienna government starts splits up to win over, changed the standpoint. Does the country take the benefit many, how compares favorably with oneself to take the benefit many? 现实非常打脸,维也纳政府开始分化拉拢过后,一个个都改变了立场。国家拿得利益多,怎么比得上自己拿得利益多呢？ Two Boolean Republic merge, joins the Holy Roman empire in the name of state, the political status obtained is truly better. 两个布尔共和国合并,以邦国的名义加盟神罗帝国,所获得的政治地位确实更好。 The interests that but such a, their individual can get were limited. Has not performed the merit, wants to become the aristocrat, has a dream! 可是这么一来,他们个人能够获得的利益就非常有限了。没有立下功劳,想要成为贵族,做梦去吧！ Although the privilege was restricted, this age aristocrat title, is very attractive. In Franz pledges after the condition, the mentalities of many changed. 尽管特权受到了限制,这个年代贵族爵位,还是非常诱人的。在弗朗茨开出条件过后,很多人的心态都发生了变化。 Since the Vienna government insisted that must pick off the Republic, could not shoulder in any case, why did not sell out the Boolean Republic, received in exchange for an aristocrat title, became the rulers in Holy Roman empire? 既然维也纳政府坚持要拿掉共和国,反正是扛不住了,为什么不卖掉布尔共和国,换取一个贵族爵位,成为神罗帝国的统治者呢？ As for the Transvaal province and future of Austria orchid Zhi free state, this and do they have the relations? 至于德兰士瓦和奥兰治自由邦的未来,这和他们有关系么？ Everyone either is a Dutch, either is a native of Germany, originally once was one of the Holy Roman empire, now returns to the native country. 大家要么是荷兰人,要么是德意志人,本来就曾经是神罗帝国的一员,现在只是回归故国。 Preetorius this president, without the preparation and Austria advantage dies to shoulder, how can also expect others? 就连小比勒陀利乌斯这个总统,都没有准备和奥地利死扛到底,又怎么能奢望其他人呢？ A short time ago the English related the Anti-Austria influence, then got the handle by the Pro-Austria influence, seized the chance to launch a political offensive, expelled the right center them thoroughly. 前不久英国人联系了反奥势力,然后被亲奥势力抓住了把柄,趁机发起了一次政治攻势,将他们彻底赶出了权利中心。 If Preetorius is not enough intelligently, rejected the English decisively, now presidents exchange the person. 如果小比勒陀利乌斯不是够聪明,果断的拒绝了英国人,现在总统都换人了。 Now Preetorius most anticipates is the English begins, only then the situation loses control, has the space that his president displays, sells a good price to oneself while convenient. 现在小比勒陀利乌斯最期待的就是英国人动手,只有局势失控,才有他这个总统发挥的空间,顺便给自己卖上一个好价钱。 Without the means that who can betray country now, is his president is not good. Even if otherwise becomes the aristocrat, he cannot mix in the aristocrat circle. 没有办法,现在谁都可以卖国,就是他这个总统不行。不然就算是成为了贵族,他也在贵族圈子里混不下去。 The aristocrats also need the reputation, particularly the new student/life aristocrat, wants to integrate in the circle, first step is to wash comes ashore white/in vain. 贵族也是需要名声的,尤其是新生贵族,想要融入圈子里,第一步就是要洗白上岸。 Preetorius has not wanted to leave the political arena, naturally cannot depend on own initiative. Except that indicates the standpoint to the Vienna government secretly, on his anything is also outwardly undoable. 小比勒陀利乌斯还不想就这么退出政坛,自然不能够主动靠上去了。除了暗地里向维也纳政府表明一下立场,明面上他什么也不能做。 Normally, after joins Austria benefits, he will become Austria to be South African governor, when the power transfer was completed, he can take a noble title to return to the native place to care for the aged. 正常情况下,加入奥地利过后,他就会成为奥属南非总督,等权利交接完成了,他就可以拿着一个贵族头衔回本土去养老了。 To turn into the real power governor, only if the English hit, the Vienna government needed his stable situation. 想要变成实权总督,除非英国人打过来了,维也纳政府需要他稳定局势。 For oneself benefit, Preetorius also has the preparation. Since beat after the Zulus, he intended to leave uncultivated the armament. 为了自己的利益,小比勒陀利乌斯也不是没有准备。自从击败了祖鲁人过后,他就有意荒废了军备。 On the one hand is indicating the attitude to the Vienna government, proved oneself do not have the ambition ; On the other hand exposes weaknesses to the English, attempts to tempt them to begin. 一方面是在向维也纳政府表明态度,证明自己没有野心;另一方面又向英国人露出了破绽,企图引诱他们动手。 Governor Delve the South African strategy that proposed to the London government, was based on this. 德尔福总督向伦敦政府提出的南非战略,就是建立在这一基础上的。 Must know the relations that because the Austria advantage immigrates to the Boolean Republic transportation, the present two Boolean Republic strengths may want the far ultra history same time. 要知道因为奥地利向布尔共和国输送移民的关系,现在的两个布尔共和国实力可要远超历史同期。 If fully-armed, in addition Austria benefits in the strength of South African area, the English unites the Portuguese even, similarly does not have many odds of success. 如果全副武装,再加上奥地利在南非地区的力量,英国人就算是联合葡萄牙人,同样没有多少胜算。 ...... …… In a Transvaal province Republic capital Preetorius manor, former president Sikeman is inviting the Austria advantage to represent Viscount Corney. 德兰士瓦共和国首都比勒陀利乌斯一座庄园内,前总统斯科曼正在邀请奥地利代表菲克尼子爵。 The merit no one will dislike many, since the Vienna government decides to annex two Boolean Republic, the aristocrats in African continent acted. 功劳没有人会嫌多,自从维也纳政府决定兼并两个布尔共和国后,非洲大陆的贵族们就行动了起来。 In order to open Viscount who Corney the colony increases the family fortunes to be naturally unwilling to fall behind. Although he just spanned from the hereditary Baron to the hereditary viscount shortly, wants further almost not possibly. 以开辟殖民地发家的菲克尼子爵自然不甘落后。尽管他刚刚从世袭男爵跨越到世袭子爵不久,想要更进一步几乎没有可能。 Lies down rests on one's laurels in the beforehand record of merits, naturally does not have the issue, but cannot support his son to be many! 躺在之前的功劳簿上吃老本,自然没有问题,可是架不住他儿子多啊！ The eldest son naturally is the inherit titles and most family properties, the remaining two youngest sons can only divide part of properties, the attachment eldest son becomes the aristocrat collateral branch, again the next generation was civilians. 长子自然是继承爵位和大部分家业,剩下的两个小儿子就只能分一部分财产,依附长子成为贵族旁支,再下一代就是平民了。 Loves their kids Baron Corney naturally not to look that this situation happened. Great Franz your majesty is benevolent, considered this issue for them ahead of time. 爱子心切的菲克尼男爵自然不想看着这种情况发生。伟大的弗朗茨陛下是仁慈的,替他们提前考虑到了这个问题。 Allows them to perform the merit, received exchange for several noble titles, meanwhile can apply for these titles, is inherited by many successors respectively. 允许他们立下功劳,多换取几个贵族头衔,同时还可以申请这些头衔,由多个继承人分别继承。 Naturally, the successor must be the parental and children's relations. If other inherit the situation, can only stipulate according to the original title inheritance law. 当然,继承人必须是父母和子女的关系。要是其他继承情况,只能按照原爵位继承法规定来。 The main purpose is to attack the title business, according to the new aristocrat law, the aristocrat must sell the title only to sell to the Vienna government, forbids to carry out the title transaction in secret. 主要目的就是为了打击爵位买卖,根据新的贵族法,贵族要出售爵位只能卖给维也纳政府,禁止私下里进行爵位交易。 Without the means that in this world will never lack the black sheep of the family, when the time comes does a title auction, the impact that then brings to the aristocrat system can be imagined. 没有办法,这个世界上永远都不缺败家子,到时候搞出来一个爵位拍卖会,那对贵族体系带来的冲击可想而知。 In order to avoid this worst situation, Franz cuts off the hereditary title transaction from the source directly, the lifelong system noble title should not be worried, is unable to inherit. 为了避免这种最糟糕的情况,弗朗茨直接从源头上断绝世袭爵位交易,终身制贵族头衔不要担心,根本就无法继承。 If really has the black sheep of the family to sell, the Vienna government also opens wide the recycling, the price that starts out is high. 真要是有败家子要卖,维也纳政府也是敞开回收的,开出的价格还非常高。 The hereditary knight of minimum scale, is 50,000 aegises ; The throne of maximum scale, asked for the sky-high prices of 10 million aegises. 最低档次的世袭骑士,都是五万神盾;最高档次的王位,更是开出了一千万神盾的天价。 Naturally, this is only restricted in Franz title, but must recycle together with the fiefdom together, the dead end title must certainly discount. 当然,这仅限于弗朗茨封出去的爵位,还要连同封地一起回收,空头爵位肯定要打折。 Title before then, must act according to the actual situation pricing. Basically so long as is Franz that the Habsburg dynasty seals recognizes, others seal are the white vegetable price recycling, the foreign title in not recycling the range. 在此之前的爵位,就要根据实际情况定价了。基本上只要是哈布斯堡王朝封出去的弗朗茨都认,其他人封出去就是白菜价回收,外国爵位不在回收范围内。 The gold content was determined, everyone also craved to the noble title. The right of big aristocrat received the restraint, sealing feudal official aristocrat who they confer, now is also no longer acknowledged by the country. 含金量被确定了,大家对贵族头衔也更加热衷了。大贵族的权利受到了约束,他们册封的封臣贵族,现在也不再被国家承认。 Including several King state, they are unable to overflow to seal the aristocrat similarly, seals person of not enough merit nobility, the empire will not acknowledge. 包括几个邦国国王,他们同样无法滥封贵族,封爵之人没有足够的功绩,帝国是不会承认的。 From initial limit, to the present merit inspection, Franz successful in the hand took away to seal/confer Juequan from King state. 从最初的名额限制,到现在的功绩考核,弗朗茨成功的从邦国国王手中拿走了封爵权。 Selling the title is not a simple matter, needed all rightful heirs to agree was good, this was almost not possible. 卖爵位也不是一件简单的事情,需要所有的合法继承人都同意了才行,这几乎是不可能的。 The relatives of aristocrat have important goods, no matter ranks how near the bottom, so long as has the right of inheritance, that feared that is the indirect right of inheritance, that is a successor. A title has over a thousand successors, possibly has. 贵族的亲戚都有一大帮子,不管排名多么靠后,只要拥有继承权,那怕是间接继承权,那都是继承人。一个爵位有上千继承人,都不是没有可能。 This inherits the relations, it is estimated that can make one collapse. Wants everyone to agree, might as well count on they got the box lunch collectively. 这个继承关系,估计都能够令人崩溃。想要所有人都同意,不如指望他们集体领了盒饭。 poor|Fei Viscount Corney saying of elegant bearing: „ Mr. Sikeman, our speeds must speed up. As far as I know, the English in next door is training the indigenous army, may do the matter very much. 菲克尼子爵风度翩翩的说道:“斯科曼先生,我们的速度必须要加快了。据我所知,隔壁的英国人正在训练土著军队,很有可能会搞事情。 Your majesty, does not want to see a chaotic South Africa, therefore we must act ahead of time. Once completed the merge, the English does not dare to practice dirty tricks. ” 陛下,不想看到一个混乱的南非,所以我们必须要提前行动。一旦完成了合并,英国人就不敢搞小动作了。” This is the game rule between big powers, in colonizing, everyone is intending to control the conflict range. 这是列强间的游戏规则,在殖民活动中,大家都在有意控制冲突范围。 Before the colony not the reality controls, is the place of without owner, everyone can respectively depending on the method, once integrates in opposite party's actual control, the making a move nature turned into the invasion again. 殖民地没有被实际控制前,算是无主之地,大家都可以各凭手段,一旦纳入对方的实际控制中,再出手性质就变成入侵了。 Generally, this situation will not happen, happened means the war. 一般情况下,这种情况是不会发生的,发生了就意味着战争。 If not willing directly to, even to contend for the domain, usually under the evil behind-the-scenes manipulator, will still push in secret the opposite party. 如果不愿意直接对上,就算是想要抢地盘,通常也只是会暗中下黑手,将对方挤出去。 Everyone is maintaining the restraint, in colonizing, conflict so many of various countries', several big colonial empires has hit gloomily. 要不是大家都在保持克制,在殖民活动中,各国发生的冲突那么多,几大殖民帝国早就打得天昏地暗了。 Sikeman is after a period of time the acting president in Transvaal province, although individual prestige is not much, the had strength is big. 斯科曼做过一段时间德兰士瓦的代理总统,个人声望虽然不怎么样,拥有的实力却不小。 Because of a business, met with Viscount Corney accidentally/surprisingly, two people are the nodding acquaintance. Normally, this relations and stranger not many differences. 因为一次生意,和菲克尼子爵意外相遇,两人算是点头之交。正常情况下,这点儿关系和陌生人没有多少区别。 However, with the change of situation, contacted with two people again. 不过,随着局势的变化,把两人再次联系到了一起。 poor|Fei Viscount Corney needs to win over the Transvaal province real power faction, joins Austria to benefit in the colonial system ; But Sikeman needs to establish the relations with the Austria advantage, hoping preserves own benefit in the new time. 菲克尼子爵需要拉拢德兰士瓦实力派,加入奥地利殖民体系中;而斯科曼则需要和奥地利搭上关系,以期在新的时代保住自身的利益。 both sides are fit in easily, became „well” friend instantaneously. 双方是一拍即合,瞬间变成了“好”朋友。 Since had decided that followed the Austria advantage to mix, Sikeman naturally cannot hesitate, thinks, replied: „ Viscount, I will promote as soon as possible. 既然已经决定跟着奥地利混了,斯科曼自然不会犹豫,想了想后回答道:“子爵阁下,我会尽快推动的。 However this also requires a little time, now the public opinion just drums up support, but also needs to save some time, can reach the peak. 不过这还需要一点儿时间,现在舆论才刚刚造势,还需要积蓄一段时间,才能够达到巅峰。 If, may have the accident/surprise ahead of time very much, after all some flies did not have cleaning up to be clean, their existences are also a hidden danger. ” 要是提前的话,很有可能出现意外,毕竟还有一些苍蝇没有清理干净,他们的存在也是一个隐患。” The political struggle rarely utterly destroys, this time obviously is the exception. Must portray the Transvaal province and Austria orchid Zhi free state all the people requests to return to the grand occasion of Holy Roman empire, must eliminate the hidden danger. 政治斗争很少斩尽杀绝,这次显然是例外。要塑造出德兰士瓦和奥兰治自由邦全民要求回归神罗帝国的盛况,就必须要清除掉隐患。 This related to Franz your majesty face, annexed two independent nations directly, the created influence was too bad. Requests to return to the motherland by the Holy Roman Empire People, when gave a pretext, the table manners were all of a sudden more attractive. 这关系到了弗朗茨陛下的面子,直接吞并两个独立国家,造成的影响太坏。以神罗帝国子民要求回归母国当借口,吃相一下子就好看多了。 The Boers trace the ancestor in any case upward are the Holy Roman empire, the cultural tradition are also all connected, did not fear that some people find fault. So long as they stated categorically that must return to the motherland, the legal principle theory of law issue solves perfectly. 反正布尔人往上追溯祖上就是神罗帝国,文化传统也是一脉相承,不怕有人挑刺。只要他们自己一口咬定要回归母国,法理问题就完美的解决了。 Considers the table manners issue, the Vienna government does not need to spend so many times, the direct military force on hard is more convenient. 要不是考虑到吃相问题,维也纳政府也不需要花这么多功夫,直接武力硬上还更加方便。 The present Boolean Republic wants the military force to resist even, must first consider the following Germany soldier to be able the sudden treachery. 现在的布尔共和国就算是想要武力抵抗,都要先考虑下面的德裔士兵会不会突然倒戈了。 poor|Fei Viscount Corney serious saying: „This group of flies must pat, since they dare to collude with the English to betray the empire, must pay the price of blood.” 菲克尼子爵严肃的说道:“这帮苍蝇必须要拍死,他们既然敢勾结英国人背叛帝国,就要付出血的代价。” In maintaining the issue of empire interests, the standpoint of Viscount Corney is very firm, in his opinion any rebel damn. 在维护帝国利益的问题上,菲克尼子爵的立场是非常坚定的,在他看来任何叛徒都该死。 Although these people are not Austria altruistic, does not have the so-called betrayal. But stood in the opposite of empire, that must die. 尽管这些人根本就不是奥地利人,也不存在所谓的背叛。可是站在了帝国的对立面,那就必须要死。 Now the Austria advantage needs to punish one as a warning to others, how otherwise to deter the person with no mind of his own who this group just turned to? 现在奥地利需要杀鸡儆猴,不然如何震慑住这帮刚投靠过来的墙头草呢？ Fike Nicole does not think that these can betray the fellow in country, will have many to be loyal to the Austria advantage. The best way, naturally is to make them not dare to betray. 菲克尼可不认为这些可以出卖自己国家的家伙,会对奥地利有多少忠诚。最好的办法,自然是让他们不敢背叛。 Let them begin to get rid of the Anti-Austria member personally, since made them accept threw describes, made them understand and Austria benefitted for the price that the enemy needs to pay. 让他们亲自动手干掉反奥分子,既是让他们纳了投名状,又让他们明白了和奥地利为敌需要付出的代价。 The smart people will make to the most advantageous choice, Sikeman is a smart person, clear(ly) knows that this is planning of Viscount Corney, he decides to install muddled. 聪明人都会做出对自己最有利的选择,斯科曼就是一个聪明人,明知道这是菲克尼子爵的算计,他还是决定装糊涂。 Immediately guarantees saying: „Viscount please feel relieved, spy of this group of ambushes in empire, we will clutch to restrain according to the law completely!” 当即保证道:“子爵阁下请放心,这帮潜伏在帝国内部的间谍,我们会全部揪出来绳之以法！” God knows, spy who the Boolean Republic Anti-Austria faction, when turns into the English, how also to ambush in the Holy Roman empire. 天知道,布尔共和国内部的反奥派,什么时候就变成英国人的间谍,又怎么潜伏在了神罗帝国之中。 Must discuss the traitor, seemingly is also their group of people looks like. Directly gave Austria to benefit the Transvaal province and Austria orchid Zhi free state pack, received in exchange for the benefit for oneself. 要讨论卖国贼,貌似也是他们这帮人更像。直接将德兰士瓦和奥兰治自由邦打包给了奥地利,为自己换取了利益。 poor|Fei Viscount Corney shows a faint smile, the wine glass in held up hand said: „Then I congratulated you ahead of time, future Baron Sikeman.” 菲克尼子爵微微一笑,举起的手中的酒杯说道:“那么我就提前恭喜你了,未来的斯科曼男爵阁下。” Then, bumped with Sikeman cup, then tosses down, seeming like really obtaining the title to be happy for the friend. 说完,和斯科曼的杯子碰了一下,然后一饮而尽,似乎是真的在为朋友获得爵位而高兴。 Experienced and careful Sikeman again cannot maintain tranquil, showed the smile instantaneously. This age strides in the aristocrat from the civilians, is not an easy matter, let alone hereditary nobility? 老谋深算的斯科曼再也保持不了平静,瞬间露出了笑容。这个年代从平民跨入贵族,可不是一件容易的事情,何况还是世袭贵族呢？ Before then, both sides on reaching an agreement condition, so long as completed the steady connection, Sikeman can become a fiefdom Baron. 在此之前,双方就谈好了条件,只要完成了平稳交接,斯科曼就可以成为一名封地男爵。 Sikeman voice some replies of shivering: „Thanks, viscount!” 斯科曼声音有些颤抖的回答道:“谢谢,子爵阁下！” Without the means that before two people were not the true friends, polite must. 没有办法,之前两人不是真正的朋友,客气是必须的。 However in the future will be uncertain, Viscount Corney will not become friends with civilians, but will not repel and an aristocrat becomes the friend. 不过未来就不一定了,菲克尼子爵不会和一个平民交朋友,但是不会排斥和一名贵族成为朋友。 The status decided everyone's being together way, since Sikeman is willing to cooperate, was the person on one's own side. 身份决定了大家的相处方式,既然斯科曼愿意合作,那么就是自己人了。 Mood excellent Corney, looks in two people meager friendship share, raises the point saying: „ Old friend, you need an etiquette teacher now. 心情大好的菲克尼,看在两人微薄交情的份儿上,提点道:“老朋友,现在你需要一个礼仪老师。 When here matter ended, but must go to Vienna to accept your majesty to confer rank and title, can become a true aristocrat. 等这边的事情结束了,还要前往维也纳接受陛下册封,才能够成为一名真正的贵族。 The aristocrats confer at the ceremony unable to make the least bit mistake, otherwise you will turn into the laughingstock in aristocrat, if never wants to raise the head. 贵族册封仪式上不能出现半点儿失误,不然你就会变成贵族中的笑柄,永远都不要想抬起头来。 Although the government will arrange the etiquette teacher, the time that but can learn/study was too short. In order to guarantee absolutely safe, you best learn/study ahead of time. ” 尽管政府会安排礼仪老师,不过能够学习的时间太短了。为了确保万无一失,你最好还是提前学习一下。” This is the fact, in the aristocrat confers at the ceremony disrespectful, the consequence is actually very serious, will be considered as will not have the performance of education. 这是事实,在贵族册封仪式上失礼,后果却是非常严重,会被认为是没有教养的表现。 Is lightly disgraceful and degenerates into the laughingstock that the aristocrat encircles, serious also has the possibility to lose the title directly. 轻则丢人现眼、沦为贵族圈的笑料,严重的还有可能直接丧失爵位。 Sikeman complexion big change, expressed gratitude to Viscount Corney hastily. 斯科曼脸色大变,连忙向菲克尼子爵道谢。 ...... ……
