When the click is done, Franz did not continue to dive into the topic.

Capitalists are not easy to mess with. Even if they have not yet dominated the government, their strength should not be underestimated.

Standing in Franz's position, you can ask questions. If you want him to charge for the interests of the working class, it would be better to fight against the bourgeoisie!

Franz has decided to hand over this great and arduous task to the aristocratic conservatives, and Prime Minister Metternich is one of the candidates.

Perhaps one day, capitalists are demanding the opening of the right to vote, implement constitutionalism, and liberating serfs; nobles are demanding the formulation of labor protection laws to protect the rights and interests of the working class.

However, after these two gangs shouted out the slogan, the Austrian people would probably be stunned.

This is also determined by the actual situation in Austria. The nobles are still in the feudal class and have a natural conflict of interest with the capitalists. The two sides have not had time to merge.

If the aristocrats and capitalists formed interest groups in the early 20th century, they would have no way to deal with them by political means except to overthrow and rebuild.

In addition to fanning the flames in front of Metternich, Franz had other preparations. He didn't think that if he did, he could impress the old fox Metternich.

Don't look at their relationship, but in politics, everyone never cares about friendship.

While chatting, Franz also obtained the qualification to open a newspaper. Before the March 1848 Revolution, the Austrian Empire implemented a system of book and newspaper inspection.

As of March 1848, before the Vienna Revolution, Austria had a total of 79 kinds of newspapers. This was a newspaper, not a newspaper!

Considering that a newspaper can publish several newspapers at the same time, the number of newspapers will be smaller.

If you look at this set of data, you will know how difficult it is to run a newspaper in this era.

However, this is not a problem for Franz. The control of books and newspapers is to curb the spread of revolutionary ideas. Anyone may support the revolutionary party, but he, the heir to the throne, cannot support the revolutionary party to revolutionize his own destiny.

Franz is still very morally cultivated, worried about what the people are worried about, so his newspaper name is "We want bread, we want cheese".

The definition of this newspaper is exactly the same as the name. For the sake of the safety of the newspaper, he decided to put the newspaper at the door of the police station.

Opening a newspaper in this era is also very troublesome. Even if Franz can omit the most tedious procedures, the manual and the venue always need to be found by yourself.

The most important thing is the newspaper editors and reporters. These people must be passionate and dare to face this cruel society. They must not be too passionate and forget who they eat.

The country is unfortunate and the poet is lucky, and he can write the vicissitudes of life and make the poems.

This sentence is still very reasonable. In the mid-19th century, a large number of literati and poets emerged in Austria. Some of them insisted on creating, while others diverted to play politics.

No matter what, the skills that the pens promote are not comparable to those of nobles.

For example, the Hungarian politician Kosut, who was a lawyer, was a propaganda strongman. In 1847, he kicked off the independence of Hungary and once became the head of the Hungarian Republic.

Of course, he also has the common problem of literati as an idealist, and the plans he formulated are often deviated from the actual situation, so the uprising is naturally suppressed.

Franz has no interest in Kosut. No matter how strong his publicity skills are, he cannot resist being an extreme nationalist.

The two sides are naturally in opposition, and of course, if you want to buy, you may not be unable to succeed, but Franz does not have this interest.

In his concept of employing people, the importance of loyalty is far beyond ability, and the lowest bottom line of employing people must also be guaranteed to be not an enemy.

After pondering for a while, Franz wrote a few names on the paper and ordered: "Roul, send someone to check the people on the list. If there is no problem, send them an invitation letter in the name of the newspaper!"

"Yes, Grand Duke!" said the follower Raul quickly.

It is not easy to recruit people in this era. The university is still an ivory tower, there are no ordinary people in it, and the parents with the lowest status are also small capitalists.

The so-called inspirational stories are all used to deceive people. The high tuition fees are not something that can be collected by working part-time.

The literati and poets in society are not as down and out as everyone imagines, and of course the exception is the one who loses his family.

If you want to recruit people, you either hang a billboard in a place with a large crowd, or publish an advertisement in a newspaper, or more through introductions from acquaintances.

According to an acquaintance, this is definitely not suitable for Franz. The people he comes into contact with are not as down-and-out. If the dragon does not live with the snake, he will naturally not know those ordinary workers.

But this is not in a hurry. It is still easy to recruit ordinary workers. Compared with other industries, working in newspapers is still a very decent job, and you are not afraid that no one will come to work.

On the contrary, it takes time to recruit journalists and editors. The people Franz invited are all well-known scholars in society.

It doesn’t matter whether they come or not. This is just telling them that there is another newspaper in Austria, and they also have another place to earn royalties for publishing articles.

From beginning to end, he did not show up in public, although many people would know that he was the boss behind this newspaper.

If it weren't for economic issues, Franz wouldn't mind opening dozens of newspapers at once, and fighting for the dominance of public opinion in an open and fierce manner.

Considering the issue of return on investment, Franz was decisive and timid. He mastered a newspaper to guide the country and set the pace when needed.

Austria's reforms have been underway for many years, and the current Prime Minister Clemens Metternich was once a representative of the reformists.

But now he is no longer a human being inside and outside. The domestic bourgeoisie dislikes his reforms not strong enough to satisfy their interests.

The noble conservatives also rejected him as the prime minister. As a representative of the aristocratic interest groups, he advocated the liberation of serfs and harmed the interests of the aristocratic group.

Even the Vienna court actually didn't catch a cold about him, the reformist prime minister, for the simple reason. The slogan was shouted for too long, but the reform did not see any results.

Franz may be the person who understands him best in this era. In a vivid sentence, the Austrian Empire is like a house that is worm-eaten. If part of it is moved, no one knows how much it will collapse.

Out of a cautious and responsible attitude, Metternich was very careful in the reforms he carried out, fearing that he would collapse if he was not good.
