The change in La Vitonia does not exist for outsiders, as they would never have known about it. In fact, everything is as usual.
The lord is still the same dim appearance that likes fishing, and he didn't even get up from the group of celebrities and models. This is really criticized and envied by the servants in the castle. Of course, they are used to this. So there was a bad temper between the castle owners, and they didn't say much.
Of course, it didn't matter what they said, because now the owner of the castle has already changed someone else. He didn't care about adding a little more infamy to his skin. For him, it is his own plan that is more important. And this made him disguise at the same time, but also began to quietly arrange.
In the first step, he summoned his own prime minister by the pool in his castle.
As the prime minister of Latvia, he was not a particularly outstanding talent. And the main reason why he was able to sit in this position in front of him was his relationship with the king. As a fox friend in his student days, the role played by the prime minister in the process of the king's fall can definitely be said to be indispensable. He is the king's most loyal dogleg, loyal enough to be able to advise him on all kinds of ideas that have no bottom line. With this, he has been able to firmly hold the king's thigh for the past ten years and go all the way to the position of prime minister.
It can be said that he was an indispensable part of the king's side. In the same way, the king's life is inseparable from him. No matter what policy he wants to issue or what capital he wants to make, he needs this prime minister to operate it for him. And that's why Victor called this guy here.
He needed to rely on this guy to carry out his plans, and at the very least, he couldn't have done without this guy's help in the beginning. This means that they need to touch each other, and preferably in places where they are familiar with each other.
The swimming pool is a good place, at least for the original parties, it will be more familiar than the prime minister's office. Because they've all fooled around here, and more than once. So, sitting in this place, they can completely let go of some unnecessary worries.
And it is precisely because of this lack of unnecessary concerns that the prime minister will trot up to Victor as soon as he sees him and greet him.
"My dear majesty, is there anything you have to do with you summoning me so anxiously?"
The Prime Minister has lowered his posture, which may have made him look a little understated. But you have to know that he has been able to sit comfortably in this position for more than ten years, relying on this. And he obviously understands that, so he always keeps it and never makes a change.
For this, Victor is satisfied. After all, a guy who is submissive and does everything according to his own way is definitely much better than a person who is independent and shrewd and thinks things by himself. So immediately he smiled and said to the prime minister.
"Come, my old friend. Sit down and have a glass of wine first. Linna, give him that cocktail. Don't say I'm snubbing my best friend. β
"Thank you, dear Miss Linna, you are more beautiful than ever."
The prime minister, who is well-versed in the art of boasting, does not hesitate to praise the king's female companions. Of course, this is not an exaggeration, in fact, with his familiarity with this lady, he did find that this lady has become more beautiful than before.
Of course. She's a little stranger at the same time pretty. But the Prime Minister doesn't care about that. He just took a sip of his wine, and then set his eyes on his own king. Obviously, he was a little more anxious about his orders than his own affairs.
Victor saw what he was thinking, so immediately, he smiled at him.
"Don't worry, my Prime Minister. It's not a big deal, it's not something urgent. You can do it slowly. Well, I can give you about two weeks. β
"You'd better tell me what you want to do first. Otherwise, I really don't have much confidence in my heart that I can give you a satisfactory answer. β
Although the prime minister is accustomed to flattery, he still knows some measure. Whether you can do it or not and whether you can do it are not the same thing. Doing everything will not necessarily end well. At this point, he is cautious. And in the face of this caution, Victor just replied with a smile.
"There are three things you need to do. First, I want you to communicate with the EU on my behalf, just say that Latvia intends to join the EU. We can free up domestic resources in exchange for EU recognition. Of course, the corresponding market communication and other member state benefits must be exchanged. This shouldn't be a problem for you. β
As soon as he said this, the prime minister's face changed. Because he found that his prediction of the situation was still somewhat insufficient. He thought it was just a mess of his own king's, and he could deal with it casually. Unexpectedly, he made such a request. And this requirement is a bit terrible for their foundation.
You know, there's a reason why Latvia hasn't joined the EU. This is not only because of its remote location, but also because it is naturally close to the mainstream countries of Europe. It is more because they artificially shield their contact with the outside world and prevent other countries from directly interfering and influencing them. It can be said that this is the basis of the rule of their monarchy. Because only by doing so can you ensure that those in your own country do not rebel against your rule because of foreign intervention. And now, the king wants to make a fundamental change in the policy they have adhered to for more than ten years, and the prime minister is of course a little unacceptable in his heart.
At this time, if a more upright prime minister were to stand here, then he might have to open his mouth immediately and say no. But because the Prime Minister himself was only a flatterer, he did not have the courage to say so to the king. So he could only say to Victor in a tactful tone.
"My Majesty, can you tell me why you are doing this. You know, this is a policy that we have pursued for more than ten years. If you start a change casually, it may cause great turmoil in the country. I guess that's not what you'd like to see. So, shouldn't you give me a plausible reason? β
"What? I need a reason to issue a new decree in my own country? β
Hearing the Prime Minister's words, Victor couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. And seeing the unhappy look on his face, the prime minister immediately lowered his eyebrows and said smoothly.
"No, no, no, my king. Things are not what you think. This is your country and you can certainly do whatever you want. It's just that, after all, there are still so many common interests around us. Even if it's to soothe their emotions, we have to give a suitable reason for not being there. Even if it's a compilation, you have to make it up. β
"Then tell them that I am no longer satisfied with the current interests of the country. I need more, it's okay. β
With a casual wave of his hand, Victor made a dissatisfied look. And looking at him like this, the prime minister could only smile wryly and nodded.
"Well, that's barely a good reply. So what are your remaining two requirements? Hopefully there won't be the first trouble, because in that case I really won't be able to help you with the round, Your Majesty. β
"Rest assured, rest assured. The rest is much simpler than the first one. β
"First of all, I plan to build a large energy station in the country. I've been in touch with a scientist at this point, and we're providing the funding, and he's providing the technology. Then all the control of the energy station is in my hands, and he only enjoys the issue of welfare benefits. And all you have to do is give the plan the green light all the way. Because I want to make this energy station a signature company in Latvia. I want it to become not only the backbone of Latvia, but also the energy supply of all the countries around it. In a word, I will rely on it for profit, honor and status. Do you understand? β
Compared to the previous order, this order was much simpler, and it was also very much in line with the king's usual nonsense. Therefore, although the prime minister did not believe that he could do this, he still replied cooperatively.
"It's a trifle, Your Majesty. Rest assured, leave it to me, and I promise it will continue to work out safely. β
"You've always been so reassuring, my old friend. So I'm going to tell you about my third command. The order is, I want you to come forward on my behalf and contact some of the EU member states. Ask them to support me in the current Allied Conference. I want to get a place in it, the kind that can speak. It's important to me, so I want you to do it as soon as possible. You can even say that you can make it a condition and write it into the treaty of accession to the EU. As for the price, as long as we have it, you can drive it out. All I want is the result, and it's just the result, you know? β
To put it so clearly, if the prime minister does not understand, then he is not qualified to continue to sit in this position. And the Prime Minister's answer did not disappoint him either, as he quickly gave an affirmative answer. This is the most satisfying thing for Victor right now. So immediately, he patted the prime minister on the shoulder, smiled at him and said.
"Old friend, don't let me down. As long as you do this well, I guarantee that you will be prosperous and prosperous for the rest of your life. Well, I won't keep you any longer. These three things to do as soon as possible, and I hope to get a reply as soon as possible. By the way, let Lina go back with you. I think a lot of the time, she's there to help you, isn't she? β
Faced with this question, the prime minister paused for a moment, and then showed a smile that all men understand. For him, the king is still the king, he knows his heart too well.
