Rebirth of the Spanish Empire

The outside world is talking a lot about the Balkans, but this fire is still the same in Madrid, and it does not bring much urgency to everyone. At least in Madrid now, people have turned their attention back, especially the nobles. The upper-class people, they have begun to attend one after another, all concentrated on a dinner party. Please remember the URL of this site:.

This is a three-story villa, but unlike other residential villas, this villa is located on a piece of land that was originally an open space near Puerta del Sol. It was originally a deserted place. At this time, a building had already been built. In the villa community, each villa is of its own type. Each door is guarded by its own soldiers. They are very powerful. Moreover, each villa has an area of ​​more than 10,000 square meters. These They are all residences of members of the Spanish cabinet, and in front of the villa with the house number No. 2, many people are coming in and out in an endless stream. There will be a slight smile on the face of everyone who comes in and out.

Lanterns were decorated, people were crowded, and there was a lot of noise everywhere. .

This time, nobles from all over the country have arranged the main members of each family to participate. It is said that in Madrid alone, the number of nobles and high-status figures present today exceeds No. 200, and together with other prominent figures from Barcelona and other places, , all these together, there are more than a thousand people. If you add in the ambassadors, ministers, consuls, counselors and other diplomatic figures from various countries stationed in Spain, these are all added together, and today there are more than 1,500 people. With the number of people, this can be called a small Spanish political feast. So many people gathered together to celebrate the birthday of former Spanish Prime Minister Palacides, who just turned 65 today.

This is something that many people understand. Many people feel that they have risen to heaven because they received all kinds of compliments when they were prosperous. But once they step down, they don’t even look at them. , but some people can't stand it and talk nonsense, saying that people only care about benefits and don't care about love. This is a very absurd statement. After all, many times, how do you know that when people make friends with you, they are not coming to you for friendship. Therefore, the attitude should be lowered. However, there are also many people who, because of their high reputation, are still the ones that people must respect and fear even after they step down. Of course, tonight's birthday man is not such a person. Because, he hasn't stepped down yet. [

Don't forget, Palacides also has another political position in Spain, the president of the International Development Bank. Such a position is already destined, and his influence will never be reduced much. And don’t forget that he also has many disciples, such as Baron Jeb, the former Spanish ambassador to Venezuela and the current Spanish Ambassador Plenipotentiary for the Americas. This is the member who is most likely to directly enter the cabinet in the future, and he is still a heavyweight. Moreover, the former Prime Minister Eugene is also his disciple. Such a existence has attracted people's attention and awe. It's not unreasonable.

Of course, there is another reason. The Palacides family is a family mainly focused on finance. It is now the largest financial world in Spain. It is said that their assets exceed 500 million US dollars. In Spain, apart from the royal family, only Antonio, the former prime minister, can compare, and Antonio's family is a coal family that started with coal. The family was responsible for 20 percent of the coal supply under Spanish rule.

The identification of the Palacides family is relatively weak. There are only two sons. The eldest son Denohan, 33 years old, inherited his father's business and is now a famous financial genius in Spain. He is now the controller of their family's business, while the second son is the opposite. He is not very fond of finance, but is more interested in technology. For example, he is most interested in flying. It is said that he is only 30 years old this year, but he has already flown in the sky for more than a thousand hours. This kind of flight time definitely exceeds that of many professional military pilots. Therefore, after knowing about it, Alfonso even scolded the Air Force representatives, scolding them for allowing the military to train for longer than other flying enthusiasts. Be short.

However, he attracted Alfonso's attention. The military had been scolded for this for ten years. Naturally, some people were not convinced. So, the military soon counterattacked. The attack weapon used in the counterattack was the Para Sides' second son Junos is said to have his own ideas about the application and assembly of aircraft and other inventions, so the military's request is that Junos join the Spanish military's air force and his invention team, so he With the combination of a hobby and a talent, Palacides had not yet reacted.

His second son, whom he had loved since childhood, was given away like this. For this reason, he complained many times to King Alfonso about the military's robbery and plunder, but every time he was transferred out by Alfonso's method.

The International Development Bank is the most important channel for Spain’s foreign aid. It includes Spain’s foreign policy, for example, which country has the best depth to help the other party. Therefore, even compared to Spain’s main bank From the perspective of other countries, the Reichsbank, which represents the central bank, pays more attention to the actions of the International Development Bank.

As long as the International Development Bank gives each country a little sweetness, they will enjoy it endlessly. What's more, this also means that the degree to which they gain the attention of their own country will increase as a result. Therefore, the diplomats in Spain now are waiting with their eyes wide open, carefully trying to maintain their own even demeanor, and are ready to wait. After a while the host appeared. Try to get as close to each other as possible.

Of course, they will not let go of the Spanish nobles and prominent figures who came here tonight, and they will not give their competitors a good look.

However, among these people, there are still many who are waiting to see what happens, such as the German ministers. Of course, they will not be here to please Palacides for money. After all, although the German Empire has just been in the latest The released gp forecast may have been surpassed by Spain, but this does not mean that Germany, the world's third largest economy, needs financial help from others.

The main reason for his coming is that Palacides' status is there. He will continue to maintain stable relations with Spain in accordance with the orders from Berlin, so that the German Empire can maintain its current comprehensive status. Longer space and time for the development of national strength.

The same is true for the British ambassador. They are also having enthusiastic conversations with the people who showed up today.

"Wow, Minister Elena is still as beautiful as ever. She is indeed one of the two golden flowers of our Spanish cabinet. It really makes people forget to leave and can't bear to look away."

"Go and cut it, take a look. Minister Lais is not bad at all. Although she is a little older than Minister Elena, it doesn't hinder her. She looks more mature, which makes people deeply fascinated. ’ I can’t extricate myself from it.”

"Stop arguing, they are all good-looking, but can they compare with those young girls over there, those beauties? Don't neglect these beauties. After all, these are the ones who will come after us. The most likely candidates for the second half of life. As for the two ministers who still have their charm, we can only hope and be out of reach. Don't waste your energy and time on such unrealistic things."

"You're right, we'd better be more realistic.

"Look, look. Wow, there are so many big names, Prime Minister Chavez, Cabinet Minister Jose, Foreign Minister Trini, Finance Minister Omer, Industry Minister Behan, Energy Minister Bain, Food Minister Horsman , plus Elena and Les, the entire current Spanish cabinet has appeared. It seems that, as the Spanish upper class said, none of the retired cabinet members in Spain has really retired. Their influence will continue to affect the future of Spain."

"His Majesty King Alfonso XIII has arrived."

"The Queen Mother Christina has arrived"

"Queen Patricia Arrives"[

While people were talking a lot, Alfonso appeared in front of everyone with his Christina and Patricia holding hands. To everyone's surprise, this year's Alfonso XIII , but it is unbelievable. He didn't even wear the king's unique "suit", but chose the suit commonly worn by the upper class. The whole person looked so light. But it was only at this moment that people seemed to feel that he was only 26 or 7 years old. The appearance of such an outfit attracted a lot of bees and butterflies to stare at him, but when he saw the handkerchief next to him, When Trisha was full of elegance and beauty, she couldn't help but let the flowers naturally turn her into a supporting role and feel ashamed.

Not long ago, Patricia gave birth to a prince again for His Majesty. This made Cristina extremely happy. After all, what is the most lacking thing in Spain? In her opinion, even thousands of people in Spain From the perspective of thousands of people, what Spain lacks the most is the heir to the royal family. As long as there is an heir to the royal family, Spain has nothing to fear. After all, the Spanish Civil War decades or hundreds of years ago was mainly due to the broken chain of heirs in Spain. So much so that in the end there was a civil war, which caused Spain to turn itself from the top European power to the last among the great powers.

She once again contributed a prince to Spain, and now she has truly been recognized by all Spanish citizens as a queen. She also recognized her identity as the mother of the country.

At this time, she was definitely the envy of all Spanish women. After all, in such a short period of time, just over two years, two princes emerged from her belly. This proved that, Patricia and His Majesty are absolutely in love.

The men, on the other hand, all set their sights on Alfonso. Everyone couldn't help but look at him with shining eyes, wanting to see what kind of head and six arms he had that could actually bring someone who was about to land in a second-rate country. Spain actually came back from the dead, abruptly, and in just ten years, it was able to compete with the German Empire as the second most powerful country. It was even compared to the most powerful Britain. Not much weaker.

Such achievements are definitely admired by everyone. Of course, the people here are not people who have never seen the world. In addition to admiration, they also want to see this person who is famous in the world tonight. What kind of speech would a well-known figure have? After all, according to the usual practice, it is really appropriate for the person with the highest status to speak this time.

But after waiting for a long time, tonight's birthday boy was allowed to go up, which made everyone a little confused. After all, although the birthday boy Palacides was highly respected, don't forget, such a person, The most important thing is not to avoid the scruples of kings and other rulers above? The fairy actually crossed over to His Majesty the Kingdom to give the first speech, which made His Majesty look so embarrassed. At this time, everyone was solemn.

Patricia straightened his beard, but he could not stop the wrinkles on his face. Now his face was rosy and bloody, and even the hand he was guarding on the lecture table was trembling. He doesn't know it either. The people in the audience noticed such a detail, which made many people even more confused.

"Your Majesty, you gave him such treatment, but you really made him, an old guy, win the lottery."

Alfonso turned his head and looked at Palacides, who was looking at Christina with a smile and sigh. Alfonso smiled and said: "I don't like to hear what my mother said. What does happiness mean?" Lotto, even if it's a lottery, don't you think he deserves such treatment? "

"Of course he can get it, and even higher treatment should be given to him. I think back then, after your father just came back from France, he single-handedly broke into a stable Spain as a polished commander. , Antonio and Palacides definitely deserve the most credit here. Without their dedicated help, your father would never have been able to obtain such an inheritance so easily, and neither would you. When I took over, I was able to complete many of my plans so quickly. I have to say that our Bourbon royal family definitely owes a lot to people like them, so Alfonso, there are some things that we still need to grasp without you. It’s all about saving, don’t forget, these heroes still need to be won over, don’t chill their hearts.”

Alfonso raised his eyebrows and looked at Christina with some surprise.

"Don't really look at me, I don't know anything," Christina said, "It's just that I think I still need to wake up."

Alfonso paused for a while, and then said slowly: "I know, I will."
