"It's a really difficult question."

Eder thought to himself with a telegram from the union of Ledeuzzi and other places. He had already seen that this was not an isolated smuggling incident, but that the closure of Romania's borders had provoked a natural reaction from refugees gathered outside the borders. If Romania continues to close its borders as it does now, this will continue to happen and become more frequent.

It's not that the government didn't see it, otherwise Prime Minister Blettianu would have dealt with the matter a long time ago, and he would not have forwarded this telegram to Eder. It also made him underestimate the desire of these war refugees for a peaceful and quiet life.

Getting such a terrible telegram just before Christmas disrupted Eder's plans. Why did Eder let the border be closed, knowing that these refugees would cause tension on the Romanian border, but still stubbornly ordered the closure of the border, which is still related to Romania's domestic livelihood and economy.

In Eder's prediction, the war would bring prosperity to Romania and lead factories to absorb a large number of peasants to work in the city, which would increase industrial efficiency and, most importantly, mechanized farming. After all, the agricultural population is small, and in the face of the current booming grain export trade, it is necessary to use machinery to improve the efficiency of farmers. This could allow Romanian agriculture to move away from the traditional division of farming to individual farming by farmers to the large-scale mechanized farming that Eder yearns for. This is also the point that Eder values most and is the key to the success of Romania's industrialization.

But Eder's plan was only possible when there was a shortage of workers in both industry and agriculture. If Romania opens its borders to allow war refugees to continue to enter, this shortage will not be possible at all, and these refugees, who already have nothing, will squeeze the Romanian salary environment, which will in turn cause dissatisfaction among the domestic population. At that time, even the king himself will not be able to solve it, after all, this is a matter of people's jobs.

So Eder had no choice but to temporarily close the Romanian border and wait for the transformation of industry and agriculture before allowing the refugees to enter. It's just that he didn't expect this large-scale refugee smuggling incident to make this problem erupt, and now he has no good way to solve it.

"What a headache."

Edel thought about it again and again, but still had trouble deciding. At this time an unusual person came to Edel's office, his wife, Queen Sophie Marie.

"Eder, I heard about this large-scale smuggling of refugees, I don't know what you plan to do?"

Sophie Marie, who still had a newspaper in her hand, asked with concern. Eder saw in her eyes his wife's concern for the refugees.

As soon as Edel looked at the newspaper she was holding, she knew where she had gotten the news. Edel secretly cursed these troublesome media in his heart, and told his wife. "I haven't thought about it yet, don't worry, I won't be too harsh on these refugees."

After this incident, it was published in the domestic newspapers, and even the media of the two warring sides reported it, except for Russia and Austria, which was not a glorious thing for them. After all, how can these news media let go of such a big matter, and they are not government departments who know that there are these refugees and people who will compete for jobs behind this matter, and they all let the government consider the living problems of these refugees.

Seeing that Eder did not answer directly, Sophie Marie, who had been promoted to queen, spoke her mind. "Will Eder be able to give these poor people some work so that they can solve their own life problems?"

Edel asked a little surprised by his wife's sudden request. "What's wrong?"

"I saw in the newspapers that most of these people were Austro-Hungarians, and that their lives in the country were ruined. I just want to help these people who are suffering, as if it's for me, Eder. ”

After hearing his wife's words, Eder finally knew why. It was the Austro-Hungarian who moved his wife, Sophie Marie, to help the people of her homeland. Perhaps in the queen's opinion, it was only a matter of two or three thousand, but she did not think that behind this was the influx of millions of refugees. And this media report is not so simple, which is likely to be behind the figure of the factory owners.

Looking at his wife's pleading eyes, Edel quickly turned his brain to think of a way. Suddenly, an idea came to mind, and he told his wife. "Okay Sophie Marie, I promise you this time, but ........."

Hearing that Eder had not finished speaking, Sophie Marie immediately changed into a delicate face to replace her husband. "Got it, there's no next time, right?"

Watching his wife's rapidly changing expression made Edel really stunned. Sophie Marie chuckled when she saw her husband's uncomfortable expression.

After seeing his wife off, Edel called the guards. "Go and call Prime Minister Brettianu and say I want to adjust the refugee policy."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

After giving instructions to the guards, Edel began to refine the ideas in his head. He is now faced with many questions that he cannot solve for the time being, and he will think about the situation in his past life for reference, which also makes Romania now have a strong style of the Celestial Empire in the later life. But whoever let him come from there, if he came from the lighthouse country of later generations, then it is estimated that Romania will have the smell of a beacon of democracy.

Perhaps we should not reject these refugees altogether, but rather select the talents that Romania urgently needs to supplement the country's development. As for the remaining refugees, didn't the queen tell them to give them a bite to eat, then Romania needs to use them for infrastructure construction. As for wages, they are settled in accordance with the prevailing Romanian minimum wage. If anyone doesn't want to do it, they will be kicked out, and some refugees want to live in peace.

As for the factory owners who are behind the scenes, not a single refugee laborer will be obtained, and they will still need to use domestic workers to produce the goods that are urgently needed by the countries. As for whether this will have an impact on the environment of workers in Romania, Eder can only say that this has been minimized. Now that refugee laborers are being assigned to build railways, roads, bridges, docks and other infrastructure, and their wages are kept to a minimum, if they are not satisfied, then they really have nothing to do. He has no problem with anyone in the country who wants to do 90 lei a month as infrastructure labor.

After Eder perfected his idea, Prime Minister Brettianu also rushed to him.

"Your Majesty, what are you going to do with the refugee measures now?"

When questioned by the prime minister, Eder offered his own way. "I plan to pick out the engineers, professors, doctors, etc. that Romania needs the most, and as for the remaining refugees, they can let them build infrastructure for Romania, and the treatment will be set at an economic level, after all, we need to spend too much money, and we don't have too much money to do infrastructure construction."

Prime Minister Bretianu heard Eder's words and knew what he had to do, and he went on to ask a question that was likely to arise. "What if these refugees want to be naturalized?"

Edel replied without thinking. "Except for the talents we urgently need, all the others are given a three-year probation period, and any violations of law and discipline during this period will not be considered."

Eder and the Prime Minister discussed various problems that might arise from the introduction of refugees, and they addressed them one by one. The purpose is a word, those who are willing to accept stay, and those who do not want to come.

After receiving an answer from the king, the prime minister returned to the government and immediately came up with a new approach to the management of refugees. Under the new measures, the government will decide how many refugees to admit each year, and those who are urgently needed in Romania will no longer be considered refugees and will be resettled in accordance with the new talent introduction law. As for the other refugees who do not belong to it, they will be arranged to work in a unified manner, and basically all kinds of Romanian infrastructure construction. Refugees who do not accept the arrangements will be expelled from the country by the Government and applications from such refugees will no longer be accepted.

With the introduction of the new measures, the vast majority of refugees have chosen to accept them, except for a small number who are unwilling to be deported. Among them, those who fall under the Talent Admission Act are the happiest, and they will receive a salary that matches their abilities according to the salary of their industry in Romania. As for the others, they can only guarantee a monthly salary of 90 lei, but even this can ensure the needs of their family, which is much better than the precariousness of war. Refugees waiting at the border need to apply for Romania's annual refugee quota, which also reduces the pressure on border police like Bruno. ()
