War Palace and Knee Pillow, Austria’s Destiny

Chapter 834: Grafting

"Don't panic or retreat when facing a deep canyon. If you don't jump, how do you know you are an eagle?"

(Oriental version: If you don't jump, how do you know if there is a magic treasure waiting for you under the cliff?)

In fact, the Austrian Empire was still a blue ocean at that time. As long as you have the ability or are willing to endure hardships, you can make a career as long as you don't run into Franz's gun.

In fact, the main reason is that Austria is rich at that time, and other states cannot compete with it financially, so they criticize it.

However, the reality is that these routines of Franz and these preferential policies of Austria are more likely to attract the so-called elites. For civilians, their concepts and beliefs are more important.

So over the years, although the number of German immigrants attracted by Austria has experienced several explosive growths, the overall scale is still not very large.

Let's get back to the point.

Friedrich Liszt patiently listened to William IV's complaints and curses. In fact, he understood the choices of those people.

Because if we only compare the prosperity, Berlin may not be comparable to Vienna, let alone the suburbs of Prague.

If he had been allowed to choose again, he might not have left Austria and fled to the United States. In fact, the development of Austria over the years has far exceeded his imagination.

Note: Prague, the capital of Bohemia, was the most important transportation, trade, and industrial center in the north of the Austrian Empire at that time. It not only benefited from the dividends brought by the German Customs Union, but was also the place most seriously affected by nationalism.

As an ardent nationalist, Friedrich List felt that Austria was the country most likely to lead Germany.

However, he hesitated for 0.00001 seconds when he wanted to personally extinguish this possibility.

"Your Majesty, as far as I know, there are no special restrictions on immigration in the Austrian Empire."

"What do you mean?" William IV was afraid of people saying this, because the last Interior Ministry officer who said this had immigrated to Austria and brought a whole special forces team with him.

"We can send all those unruly people and criminals to Austria, so that we can survive the crisis and consume Austria's national strength.

If the Austrians accept it, then they will bear the crisis for us. If they don't accept it, then the lies of the Austrians about immigration policy and those Great Germans will be broken.

And those unruly people and criminals are not easy to deal with. They will definitely commit crimes in Austria, and their lives will not be satisfactory.

If there is a war between the two countries in the future, these people will be our helpers and cooperate with us inside and outside Austria."

William IV was so surprised that he couldn't close his mouth. He didn't expect that there were such talents around him, and he couldn't help but exclaimed.

"Great! Great! Really great!"

For Prussia, its biggest enemy has always been Austria, so this strategy of transferring Prussia's pain to Austria is particularly pleasing to William IV's ears.

It is also a good way for Prussia's top leaders. After all, if Prussia wants to maintain its influence and even ensure that it will not be weakened into a small country like Saxony, they must beware of Austria.

However, Foreign Minister Karl von Kanitz (the one who attended the Vienna Conference before) was a little hesitant.

"Then your majesty, we will definitely be discovered if we send immigrants to Austria in this way. What if the Austrians want to retaliate against us?

The Austrians have dominated these wars and have an extremely high reputation both within the German Confederation and the German Customs Union.

In addition to the remaining power of the old era, if they want to sanction us, I am afraid that no country will stand on our side."

Army Minister Hermann von Boyne said angrily.

"Back then, under the leadership of Frederick the Great, our Prussia defeated the Austrian, French and Russian alliances! Are you still afraid that the Austrians will bring a bunch of bastards?!"

The words of the Army Minister were very angry and powerful, but too outrageous, so they were ignored by everyone.

The times have changed, and at this time, Prussia and the German Confederation are fighting. There is no need to fight this war, and Prussia will have chaos inside.

Karl von Kanitz's words make sense. Although Austria has not used the power in its hands, no country will doubt that it has this power.

At this time, Friedrich List stood up again.

"Please rest assured, I believe that all German countries have the same problem at this time. We can let Mecklenburg and Anhalt, which are friendly with us, do it first.

I believe that as long as someone does this, other countries will definitely follow suit. When we Prussia implement our plan, the Austrians will have no reason to doubt us.

Even if they know that we did it, they can only swallow their anger without evidence."

After some calculations, the Prussian high-level officials passed Friedrich's proposal, but just in case, they still named the plan [Friedrich Plan].

So the overwhelming army of immigrants was sent to Austria along the railway lines and rivers, which directly overloaded the Austrian Immigration Bureau.

German immigrants are a good thing for Franz. Even if the number is abnormal, he doesn't care at all, because Austria has plenty of land as he boasted.

There is none in the country, and there are colonies. Even if all the people in Germany immigrate to Austria at this time, Franz can still eat it.

However, entry review must still be carried out strictly, because this can minimize the social unrest that may be caused.

But in order to ensure efficiency and give a good impression to those who were new to Austria, Franz decided to temporarily double the staff and mobilize some young nobles and college students to help.

Regarding the distribution of immigrants, it is still the same as before. Those who can enter factories can go to factories, and those who are able-bodied can enter the army and government agencies.

Those with special skills can be treated specially, but they need to be assessed and help them find corresponding jobs according to their abilities.

Anyone with a high school education or above and who voluntarily serve the empire can apply for the position of support teacher. The probation period is five years. Those with excellent grades can enter the imperial government and become grassroots officials.

In addition, you can also choose to go to St. Stephen's Crown Territory, Vojvodina, West Bosnia and other places to open up wasteland and farm land.

The worst option is to go to the colonies, but the specific work in the colonies depends on the arrangements of local officials, and a series of relevant agreements need to be signed, because sometimes Austrian laws do not fully apply in the colonies.

However, going to the colony would allow the family to directly receive a compensation of five hundred florins, and if they unfortunately died in the line of duty, they would also receive an additional compensation of five hundred florins.

This is very attractive to ordinary people, especially Germans outside the Austrian Empire, who may not be able to earn this kind of money in their lifetime.
