Romania's deep involvement in the Spanish Civil War may be big news for Spain in the midst of the civil war. But for others it is nothing, not even in Romania.

For Romania at the moment, the situation at home deserves more attention from Eder.

"What's going on?"

Before Holmemman, who had just returned home, could catch his breath when he was called in front of him by Eder and questioned.

Of course, it was not a trivial matter for Eder to be called in for questioning, because one of the largest strikes in Romania broke out in Oradea. More than 80,000 workers and their families took to the streets to demand higher wages, more vacation time, and accountability for work-related illnesses.

In the face of the sudden strike protests, the local government calmed the strike ranks and prevented the march from turning into uncontrollable riots. On the other hand, local business owners are also required to show commitments to meet the demands of some workers.

And for such a large-scale strike march, the local government of course also needs to report to Bucharest.

In fact, for the people of Transylvania, a large area of former Austria-Hungary, there are the most labor disputes in the region, and the region has the lowest wages in Romania.

The main reason is that, on the one hand, the government's oppression of Hungarians in the region has allowed some people to find opportunities to exploit loopholes. They recruited Hungarians as workers, kept their wages to a minimum, and from time to time they were in arrears.

Faced with this situation, the local Hungarians have reported it to the government, but for some ulterior purpose, nothing has changed. As a result, the wages of workers of other ethnic groups cannot rise at all.

Persistently lower wages elsewhere, combined with the depreciation of the currency over the past two years, have led to rising prices. The people in the area are becoming more and more dissatisfied, and some time ago there happened to be a factory that fired more than a dozen workers because of an accident. More than 80,000 workers and their families poured into the streets, and a vigorous strike began.

And that's not why Eder is angry, what really makes him angry is the resurgence of the Communist Party behind the workers' strike.

Previously, the Romanian Communist Party suffered serious repression, and the outbreak of the Romanian War, which made the party's popularity in Romania much less than before. And with the decline of people's living standards, the suppressed Communist Party is also quietly growing. This left Edel horrified by the resilience of the Communist Party.

Dissatisfied that the intelligence services had not found any trace of the Communists, the intelligence services were reprimanded for the strike after being praised for Operation Gold.

In fact, the intelligence services cannot be blamed for this, the strikes are mainly caused by the reduction of the people's living standards and the government's oppression of Hungarians. And with the severe crackdown on the Communist Party by the intelligence services, its activities have become more and more hidden.

But can this be used as a reason, not at all. Because it would represent that the government's previous policy was wrong, and His Majesty Eder, who made this decision, mishandled.

So this pot can only be borne by the intelligence services, who made them fail to detect this strike in advance.

Eder looked at the atmosphere in front of him and didn't dare to leave Hall Monkman, thinking that he had always been serious and responsible about intelligence work, and it was indeed a little unreasonable to be angry with him this time.

Holmonkmann, who had suffered an unwarranted calamity, said after seeing His Majesty's anger diminish. "Your Majesty, I'm going to step up the work of domestic intelligence, and there will be no more such things."

"Go ahead."

After sending Holmonkman away, Eder called a guard. "Call Prime Minister Mihaakai over, I have something to order."

Yes, it was time for Eder to revise his long-standing ethnic policy.

……

"Your Majesty, I don't know what you're looking for me?"

As soon as Prime Minister Mihalakhai came up, he asked about the reason for the summons. In fact, on the way over, he had a guess, but this was just a guess, and he still needed to confirm it.

Edel didn't beat around the bush and asked bluntly. "What do you think about the Oradea strike?"

In response to Eder's inquiry, Prime Minister Mihalakhai replied without thinking. "Your Majesty, this is just a handful of black-hearted factories that oppress workers, leading to the expansion of labor and capital conflicts. Your Majesty need not be too disturbed by this, and I believe that it will soon be calmed down. ”

Hearing the Prime Minister's words, Eder knew that the Prime Minister did not want to blame the local government too much for this, because they were just implementing policies.

"So how does the government plan to respond to this strike, and there has been some growth in strikes and protests in the country recently."

Prime Minister Mihalakhai heard Eder's inquiry and knew that this was just rhetoric, and that there was some growth, which was exactly twice as fast as it was two years ago.

As for Eder's sudden inquiry about the handling of the strike, Prime Minister Mihalakhai was moved, and His Majesty had any other opinion on this. This is because according to the original method, that is, the government organizes negotiations between labor and management to try to match the opinions of both parties. And now that His Majesty is asking, there must be other opinions.

"I don't know what Your Majesty thinks, what should be done?"

Your Excellency, the Prime Minister, who has a plan in mind, intends to ask Eder for his opinion first.

Since the prime minister asked, then Eder did not hide it. "I think it's mainly due to the low pay in the area, because it's a bit unfair to the workers in the area. As far as I know, the salary level in Transylvania is 10-15% lower than in other regions, which I think is a bit unreasonable. ”

Edel spoke out his opinion, which made the Prime Minister feel at ease. Because the pay in the region is low, there are many reasons. And now that His Majesty has hinted, then it is necessary to adjust the policy in the region.

In fact, Mihalaké is also very clear about the oppression suffered by the Hungarians, but who has allowed him to do too much evil before. And these people who are still in Romania are basically submissive. Perhaps the suppression of them can be loosened and returned to normal levels.

Prime Minister Mihalakei, who figured it out, took Eder's words. "Your Majesty, it is true that the wages in the area were low before, and those factories were too squeezed, which is not a good thing for the government. This is an opportunity to raise the pay level in the region to the same level as in other regions. ”

Of course, this level is to level to the baseline, so as not to make its salary level too conspicuous. And many of the policies against ethnic Hungarians will be lifted in the future.

Now that the government has made its decision, the rest of the negotiations is in the hands of the government. In the face of the government that pulls the bias, the capital side has no way to resist and directly accepts the outcome of the salary increase.

Of course, in order to prevent the labor side from taking the opportunity to raise demands, the government told its negotiators that this time it could only talk about the outcome of the situation, and if the trouble continues, the government will not interfere.

The workers who got the desired outcome were very satisfied that they could negotiate such an outcome.
