In the Jewish community of Bukovina, the elderly Field, who was busy settling his compatriots, could see that he was very experienced.

Over the centuries of migration, the Jewish people have learned to be at peace with what comes their way. Even if you go to an unfamiliar place, you can quickly adapt to it.

In fact, Austria was not the first choice for the migration of Russian Jews at first, and at first everyone was preparing to leave Europe, and Bukovina was a transit point.

However, after arriving here, everyone found that there was no large-scale anti-Semitic movement in Austria, except for the discord of public opinion against the Jews.

As for the imprisonment of Jewish capitalists, this is all pediatric. In those days, Jews had a hard time all over the world, and it was not uncommon for them to go to prison for no reason.

In particular, the Russian Empire was the most discordant, and even if it took refuge in the powerful people in the tsarist government, it was inevitable that they would be ripped off.

With many years of life experience, several Jewish leaders, including Field, believed that the Austrian bureaucracy wanted to make money.

It happened that during this period, the anti-Semitic movement also broke out in the Americas, and suddenly there was nowhere to go, and everyone decided to stay and wait and see.

After the list of the investigation team was confirmed, the Austrian Jewish upper echelons who had slipped through the net were relieved, and everyone agreed that the matter was over.

In this discordant world, the Jewish nation has been able to hold out because of its solidarity in times of crisis.

Everyone summed it up, anyway, there is nowhere to go, and since the anti-Semitic movement in Austria is over again, it is better to stay, and everyone can still take care of each other.

Although they did not get Austrian citizenship, with the help of their Austrian compatriots, they quickly bought a piece of land to rebuild their homes.

Looking at the hot construction site, Fielde smiled with satisfaction. These days have not been in vain, and through his compatriots here, he has gained an in-depth understanding of Austria.

Happiness is all contrasted, and Austria is a paradise for the living conditions of the Russian Empire.

The rule of law is good, but for the vast majority of ordinary Jews, the biggest fear is that there is no order.

"Mr. Field, something is wrong!"

A loud voice broke Field's good mood.

Frowning, Fielde asked with concern, "Ralph, what's going on again?" ”

There is no way, now they have become frightened birds, paying special attention to every move of the outside world.

Ralph replied breathlessly, "Mr. Glare and Mr. Osido have been captured by the Austrians, and even their families have been taken with them.

I went out to inquire, and it was said that it was because of Mr. Leo's involvement, as if the crime was for unreporting and illegal enrichment.

I don't know what it is. Anyway, many of our compatriots have been arrested, and they are all big names in the Bukovina region. ”

Hearing the bad news, Field's face turned pale and his body trembled, and if Ralph hadn't helped him quickly, he didn't know what would have happened.

After a moment's effort, Field, who had come to his senses, sighed helplessly.

There was no way, he really couldn't understand the current situation. It was okay to say that it was okay, but suddenly the situation deteriorated again.

"Let's get in touch with our local compatriots, who have some connections in the local area and are more likely to receive information than we do.

Get everyone ready to move again, and if the momentum isn't right, leave Austria. ”

Ralph nodded, in the face of the current situation, he had already panicked, and naturally Fielde was what he said.

Looking at Ralph, who kept nodding, Fielde showed a bitter smile, leaving is easier said than done.

Every migration of the Jewish people is a history of blood and tears. A lot of the time it's from one hell to another.

The word "home" is too foreign to them. Some are just temporary settlements, and I don't know when I will have to move again.

……

Once the valve is opened, it is not so simple to close it again.

With the order of the investigation team, a large number of people involved in the case were imprisoned, accompanied by snowflakes of complaint letters and confessions.

The big Jewish capitalists hooked up with the big people in the Austrian government, and the small capitalists could only hook up with the small bureaucrats.

Not everyone has such a good mental quality and can carry it to the death. More ordinary people confessed after being arrested by the police.

In order to reduce their sentences, some people even confessed some hearsay and news without actual evidence.

From the central government ministries and commissions to the sub-district offices, there are people involved everywhere.

Looking at the case file that had been sent, Count Vitesse almost fainted.

With so many people involved, if they really deal with it according to the law, there will be more people they will offend.

It is even more impossible for his subordinates to show mercy, maybe there is still a possibility of covering the past before the lid is lifted, but not now.

The dignity of the law cannot be desecrated, and since the evidence is conclusive, it must be dealt with, otherwise they will not be spared from above.

……

Paul Bodis said with a haggard face: "Your Excellency, the situation has completely gotten out of control, and there are more than 10,000 officials involved in the case across the country, including dozens of high-ranking government officials.

To tell you the truth, in the past few days, people who have pleaded for mercy are about to step on the door of my house.

I believe everyone is similar, and there are even relatives and friends who are directly involved in the case.

Now we are roasted on the fire, and if we let them go, the above will surely not spare us; If we do business, we will be isolated in the future. ”

There is no way, who let them overestimate the discipline of their colleagues in advance. I thought that I was the only one who was taking advantage of the gray area, but I didn't expect that there were like-minded people all over the country.

Generally speaking, this kind of hidden power-for-money transactions are difficult to investigate. As long as the person concerned does not speak out, it is difficult for the outside world to figure out the internal relationship.

In normal times, everyone also criticized those corrupt and bribery fools, and no one thought that they would be caught up one day.

Count Vitesse nodded: "Paul is right, the current situation is indeed out of control.

To put it mildly, the evidence that has been exposed so far is enough to send us to prison.

If it weren't for the fact that we happened to be in charge of this case, maybe it would be us who are asking for help now.

At this point, do you think it's better for us to go in ourselves, or to let others in? ”

The reality is so cruel that inadvertently they become a knife, a knife to cut at the Austrian bureaucracy.

In fact, from the moment they entered the investigation team, everyone was prepared for this question.

It's just that everyone still has a trace of illusions, after all, the Austrian government has a strict grip on the administration of officials, the living space of corrupt elements is very small, and the bureaucracy still seems to be very clean, and there are not a few moths in the government.

However, the reality is harsh. There are many "smart people" who know how to use their power to make money, and only a few fools go directly to embezzle government funds.

Before the matter is over, more than 10,000 people are involved in the case, and if this is investigated all the way, I don't know how many people will be imprisoned.

Needless to say, as the person in charge of this case, Count Vitesse will inevitably become the object of everyone's hatred.

Alberti said fiercely: "Give the order to arrest people, we can't back down at this step."

Even if we stop now, no one will think of our goodness. The lid has been lifted, and if we don't look down, someone else will check it.

When the time comes, a few of us will be miserable, both offended the above and the below, and the punishment of several crimes will be settled together, and it will be possible to win the title. ”

Hearing the word "winning the title", everyone who was still hesitating suddenly became firm.

No way, the case is too big now. At this point, it is definitely necessary for a weighty person to be responsible.

It just so happened that the people in the investigation team were qualified, and as the culprits of protecting the Jewish criminal group, there was no way to explain to the Austrian people if they were not severely punished.

offend people, at most let yourself not get along in the officialdom. Anyway, within the rules, as long as you stand up behind you, no one can do anything to them.

But once you lose your title, it's not as simple as not being able to get along, and if you don't do it, you will die and the clan will be wiped out.

Political struggles have always been bloody, and it is better to give it a go than to pin your hopes on the ethereal "gratitude" of others.

Seeing that everyone had unified their positions, Count Vitesse also breathed a sigh of relief, what he was most afraid of at this time was the division of the small group.

Even if they will be isolated in the future, it is better for everyone present to huddle together to keep warm, than to be alone.

After a moment's effort, Count Vitesse said slowly, "Since you have made your choice, let's go about business!"

This step is taken, and we have to be careful later. The outside world will look at us with a magnifying glass, and we must not reveal the slightest flaw.

No matter who comes to intercede, no one can be soft-hearted. Even if it involves our loved ones, it must be dealt with in accordance with the law.

The image of fairness and honesty will be the foundation for our future foothold in the political arena. ”
