From the time she was born until now, Catherine has rarely been in a situation of lack of money.
It was natural.
Unless the economy collapsed…
No, even if the world economy collapsed, there would be no way her wealth would run out.
The Silver Dragon Princess, the Great Khan of the Russian Khanate whose wealth increased just by breathing, and who led Bahamut, was such a being.
‘…Because it’s something to live for a long time.’
So this moment.
Yekathrice had no choice but to look at the negative financial statements with a broken eye.
‘I didn’t know that I would be stabbed in the back by that kid like this.’
Not a small country anywhere.
To blow up the national budget of the Russian Khanate, which boasts the second largest economy next to the United States, in a matter of days.
Thanks to that, Yekathrice, who saw the empty treasury for the first time in her life, was beyond amazed and even felt delighted.
Unfortunately, not everyone was as crazy as she was.
“Are you saying we spent all the money from the treasury on buying books and games and hiring bands and singers…?”
“It includes the cost of making facilities such as racecourses and arcades.”
“Does that make sense?!”
“Whether it makes sense or not, it is real.”
In fact, there was some swindle there.
Bulk buying as well as used goods.
Of course, Ainsha bought items that would normally receive a significant discount at regular prices, plus an express fee and a premium.
Even when hiring people, they paid several times to several tens of times the salary on the condition that they sign a long-term contract unconditionally quickly.
What to do with an irreplaceable hodgepodge.
But considering that most of the money goes to Tiamat in the name of commission?
Only the Russian government was poisoned.
The problem was that the Soviet Union inherited the poison in its entirety because it caused a revolution at this timing.
If it was a coincidence, it would be a very unfortunate thing…
‘It can’t be a coincidence.’
Catherine was convinced.
Ainsha must have foreseen that a revolution would occur at this timing and acted accordingly.
Aside from everything else, the immediate inventory she left behind showed just how thoroughly planned the getaway was.
“Then, if I refund the product…”
“I’m sorry, but I would have to lose money.”
“Why?!”
“That’s because I took everything that could make a little bit of money when the kids were playing.”
It is not just jewels or gold and silver.
Various items that are easy to cash in.
Even the original cultural assets.
In just a few days, Ainsha stole everything that could be money from government property.
It was a feat that would be difficult not only for the Gold Dragon and Black Dragon clans, but also for themselves, the Silver Dragon clan, in such a short period of time.
Of course, being able to foresee the future and devise a perfect escape plan was only possible because the White Dragon clan had accumulated know-how in escaping for hundreds of years.
“Even if you sell the remaining ones, they will only cost a penny, and even if you cancel the contract with an orchestra or celebrity, you have to pay a penalty.”
“…after all, you’re saying there’s not a penny left in this country?”
“There is a pile of debt.”
“Isn’t that a more terrible sound…”
Until yesterday, I was delighted with the success of the revolution.
Bachemensky groaned, suddenly forced to settle the debt of the state budget unit.
But that’s for a while.
As an elite researcher, he tried various methods.
“How about issuing government bonds? All we have to do is get over this hurdle, so if we contact other countries to arrange borrowings…” “
Do you think there will be a country that buys government bonds that were just created the other day ago as a unit of the national budget?”
“Then, I will lend money to the revolutionary army and collaborators in other regions.”
“They’re also going crazy because they don’t have money.”
And smashed.
It was natural.
There was no way that Sergei or Ekatriche were unaware of the methods that Bachemensky could come up with.
I actually reviewed a few of them.
The problem is that all of those methods are blocked.
Countries that could lend money have already bought a large amount of Russian government bonds and shook their heads.
Revolutionary armies in other regions were also asking for funding from the Soviet Union, as funding was suddenly cut off from sponsors.
As if someone saw all their coping and ruined it beforehand.
It’s really overgrown.
It was a situation where there was no answer.
At least that was until Sergei opened his mouth.
“I can’t help it. Let’s raise money for the remaining factory owners and entrepreneurs in Moscow.”
“There’s no way we can raise the funds by raising the money bit by bit, right?”
“If you don’t have enough, you can take more. Instead, they should promise sufficient tax cuts and benefits in the future.”
“that…!”
“Anyway, the redistribution of wealth was something that had to be done someday. If you think that the schedule has been moved forward, that’s it.”
Bachemensky made a dark expression.
The redistribution of wealth originally prepared by the Revolutionary Army was a long-term plan that would span several years at the earliest and ten years at the longest.
At least, as soon as the revolution was achieved, problems could arise as there was no plan to force the existing wealthy class to withdraw funds.
Whether you know his concerns or not.
Sergei added a word in a heavy voice.
“And we need to start running the factory back to normal.”
Most of the current problems are caused by the shutdown of factories.
It was reasonable enough for Sergei to say that even if the factory is normalized, the chaos will subside and funds will be secured.
The problem was how to put it into practice.
“…will the people come to the factory when the Central Supervisory Service disappears and labor centers become obsolete?”
“First of all, we are thinking of taking over the work of the Central Supervisory Board and granting labor points.”
“Are you saying you will maintain the labor point system?”
“If we abolish the labor point system in this yard, it will only increase confusion, so we will maintain it until the situation stabilizes.”
“Is that so…”
Bachemensky’s expression became more complex.
Labor points were the core of the labor quota system and were one of the first evil laws to be reformed along with the grading system.
The reality that he had no choice but to maintain it even after achieving a revolution disturbed him.
Besides, Sergey’s words weren’t over yet.
“It hasn’t been decided yet, but we’re also considering increasing the working hours of citizens.”
“What else do you mean by that?”
“Did you forget? We may have driven out the dictator, but we have not broken it.”
Revolutionary forces occupied Moscow, the heart of Russia.
But that’s all.
The Soviet Union’s influence was confined to the vicinity of Moscow, and most of Russian territory was still under the control of the Silver Dragon clan.
It was natural.
Their victory was picked up by Ainsha running away.
Thanks to that, the bloodless revolution was possible, but instead, the dictator’s army remained intact.
“I don’t know why he ran away, but the dictator will not remain silent forever. He could come to recapture Moscow even tomorrow.”
“…a large amount of military supplies will be needed.”
“As well as funds and troops.”
whether to defend the country.
Whether to support revolutionary forces in other regions.
The Soviet Union lacked everything to deal with the Russian Khanate, which still ruled over 400 million people.
To fill that gap, they had to endure a bunch.
Not just the Revolutionary Army, but all members of Moscow now part of the Soviet Union.
“There will be a huge backlash from the citizens.”
“Still, I can’t help it. If we continue like this, we will lose our country again.”
“…”
“Think of the cause. If everyone sacrifices little by little until the dictator is overthrown, our brothers and sisters all over Russia will regain their freedom.”
“All right.”
Eventually, Bachemensky lowered his head with a sigh.
The revolution could not be stopped here when more than 400 million people were still groaning under dictatorship.
Above all, he believed.
The citizens of Moscow who cheered together for the revival of the Soviets would accept this much.
While lamenting the helplessness of having to share the pain with the citizens, he summoned other leaders of the revolutionary army as per Sergei’s will.
But he didn’t know
That the white-haired girl next to Sergei was smiling at them with a strange smile.
so the next day.
State administration of the Soviet Union began.
* * *
“Did you ask me to become a factory manager?”
“yes. After researching, he was the most experienced and popular among our brothers in this factory. So it seemed appropriate.”
“Thank you for saying that, but are you really okay with that?”
“I know you said that you can do a factory manager’s job with your eyes closed, isn’t it?”
“I’m not saying you can’t. At least I can do better than the factory manager who ran away after playing in my office all year round.”
“That is enough.”
“Hmm… Do you have anything else to do besides the factory manager?”
“Instead of yes, all we have to do is keep the factory running as directed by the federal government.”
“Well, there is nothing difficult about it. I will try to make this factory the best in Moscow.”
Once a decision had been made, the Revolutionary Government of the Soviet Army moved swiftly.
Appoint a new plant manager.
and direct appropriate delivery.
Such as providing scarce parts.
It was just the beginning of the factory’s normalization.
In addition, the vacancy of the Central Supervisory Board was filled with the Revolutionary Army and the labor shop system was promised to be maintained.
Additional policies were implemented in various ways to alleviate the confusion among citizens.
“What, didn’t the labor quota system disappear?”
“Better than closing the factory right now.”
“I thought all the labor points I had saved up were gone, but I’m glad that they will make it possible to turn them into cash later.”
Thanks to their efforts, citizens have managed to regain stability.
Of course, there were those who were dissatisfied with maintaining the existing system after starting a revolution.
However, when I heard that this was only a temporary measure and that a more equal and free system would be introduced in the future, I suppressed my emotions.
As much as they cheered the revolutionary government until yesterday, they were highly motivated to resolve the situation.
Wei Ying.
Chunk-chunk-chunk.
So the factory is running again.
Employees go to work normally.
Moscow, which was in turmoil, was normalized.
…at least that’s what it looked like.
However, inside such a factory, all sorts of big and small problems began to arise.
“Line 1 stopped?”
“Yes uncle. It looks like the automatic welding machine is broken and needs to be repaired.”
“Wouldn’t it take time to fix that?”
“I inquired, and they said it could be done in one or three days at the earliest.”
“Oh hey man! So you’re saying you’re going to let one line rest for three days? I have a mountain of things to deliver right now!”
“The automatic welding machine is broken, what should I do?”
“How can I just weld it myself?”
“yes???”
“Why are you looking like that? Originally, that was all done by people.”
“That happened when you were young, Mr. Besides, one automatic welding machine is used by 10 people, so what should I do?”
“It’s because kids these days lack the guts! When I was young, I did all of that work by myself with my mouth shut!”
“No, what nonsense…”
“Ah, do it! Don’t you know I’m the factory manager now? And from now on, call me factory manager!”
Items are delivered incorrectly.
or the quality of the product has declined.
not giving rest, etc.
Those who had worked only in the field all their lives and became factory managers because they were popular in the Revolutionary Army caused all kinds of trial and error.
But that was nothing more than medicine.
What was really serious was those who managed labor stores on behalf of the Central Supervisory Service.
