Don’t raise unruly people in extreme cold weather

Chapter 171 Negotiation

Arriving at the parliament building again, Purficott felt quite emotional.

Because she was so unhappy when she came here last time that she almost wanted to tear it down and hang all the aristocratic bugs who dared to mock her from the street lamp outside.

However, considering that there were not enough street lights outside the parliament building, Purficott finally gave up on this tempting idea.

As for her now, no one in the noble council dared to mock her in person.

One is due to her status as the guardian of the North and the pioneering earl. It is one thing to mock a noble orphan girl who has not inherited the family title in person, but it is another thing to mock a powerful noble in the empire in front of her face. It's over.

They are both Earls, and Earl Perficott really has an army at his disposal.

If someone still taunts Purficott, she doesn't need to say anything. The Steam Knight of the White Bear Knights can throw his white gloves at the opponent's face and then kill him with the Steam Knight.

As for the other reason, as the current leader of the Northern Territory Development Plan, the actual guardian of the Northern Territory, and the real executor of the empire's doomsday response plan, Perficott has too many nobles who know the inside story. I hope I can get a ticket to the North through her.

The news of abandoning the homeland has not been leaked, but for those who are qualified to know about it, planning in advance is a matter of course.

Purficott had not made any achievements in the North last year, and she had been staying in the North before. These people had no channel for him to invest or win over her. They could only raise funds at Windsor Castle. Someone saw the opportunity and invested some money early.

But this only meant that they had shown their faces in front of Purficott, so there was no need to think about making a deep impression on her.

Under such circumstances, these nobles had no time to curry favor with her, so how could they offend her?

And those nobles who didn't know about the doomsday crisis also didn't dare to offend Purficott. After all, they had just finished ending a war, killing millions of people, and destroying three cities, which was enough to leave a mark in the history books. The colorful Purficott is Langton's most popular figure.

The military wanted to hold Purficott in the palm of their hands. Who dared to offend her, maybe because they wanted to try the military's iron fist?

So when Purficott walked into the parliament building again, those who had ridiculed her, looked down on her, and felt sorry for her were all groveling in front of her, or looking fawning on their faces.

It really proves that saying, when you are powerful, there are no bad people around you.

Purficott didn't pay attention to these people. She just came to the office of the Minister of Industry and Commerce, which she had made an appointment at yesterday's imperial meeting, to discuss matters related to the construction of the northern border with the Minister of Industry and Commerce.

The main reason why we need to discuss with the Minister of Industry and Commerce is that the industrial production of the empire is under the management of the Minister of Industry and Commerce.

"Sir McClintock, I need to build a complete industrial production system in the north. Currently, I have found a local steel company in the colony for steel production. As for other parts, I hope to at least put the shelves on the shelf within this year. Set it up." Purficott looked at the Minister of Industry and Commerce in front of her. After driving out all other irrelevant people, she got straight to the point: "You and I both know that the empire doesn't have much time left and wants to implement the doomsday plan. , it is necessary for the northern border to have a complete industrial production system."

Sir McClintock nodded and replied affirmatively: "Please rest assured, Earl Brandless. Everyone reached a consensus at the royal meeting yesterday. I will coordinate domestic factories to provide you with relevant equipment, and coordinate A number of factories and enterprises worthy of preservation went to the north to invest and open branches.

They will bring enough industrial production capacity and related technical talents to the north. However, in this regard, they still need your support, Lord Earl, to give them relevant permissions. "This is something that was discussed at the Royal Meeting yesterday. The Minister of Industry and Commerce informed some large local factories and enterprises to invest in and set up factories in the north.

Not to mention transferring all local industrial production capacity, at least some production lines and skilled workers must be transferred there.

But this not only requires cooperation from the local side, but also requires coordination from Purficott in the north.

Purficott came today largely to deal with this matter.

Although the details do not need to be discussed by the two imperial ministers in person, some general framework issues still need to be confirmed by Sir McClintock and Purficott in person.

"There is no problem with this. I will open the North to them. In fact, in my plan, the North itself is to build an industrial city dedicated to production." Purficott revealed something to Sir McClintock. Her plan: "If these factories are willing to go to the north to build factories within this year, the relevant preferential policies are easy to talk about, although they may not need this."

"I think they still need it. After all, even if the empire abandons its homeland and everyone moves to the north under the threat of doomsday, the taxes that should be paid will still be inevitable." Although McClintock is not a tax official, he is responsible for collecting taxes. He still has his own insistence on taxes.

Purficott nodded with satisfaction. In fact, this aspect did not involve much interest issues, but more respect for her, the northern lord.

After all, strictly speaking, the North is now her fiefdom. Even if the empire's local forces move there together with the royal family, nothing will change at this point.

If this could be easily changed, then the legal rationality and legitimacy of imperial rule would be gone.

Of course, the more important point is that Purficott, who holds the Steam Knight in his hand, is strong enough to ensure that he can defend all of this.

If the thermobaric bomb is still on other people's heads, it is the empire's artifact, but if it is thrown on one's own head, it will be a horror story.

Several of the most popular things in the empire were invented by Perficott. No one wanted to offend a genius with great energy at this juncture.

No one knew what surprising things might be pulled out of her pocket if she displeased her.

"Let's hold a reception in the name of you and me, Lianhe. Invite representatives from factories and enterprises that cannot be abandoned by the empire. Give them appropriate briefings and guidance, and try to allow them to take the initiative to go to the Northern Investment Office. Factory." Purficott thought for a while and made a suggestion to McClintock.
