C2122 Chaos of London 2 (2/2)
Right now, Benjamin could already guess the reason behind Gladstone's attack on him. The first was to refuse the advice and be headstrong, the second was to be narrow-minded, ignore the bigger picture, and the third was to have weak organization and weak management ability.
All of these things had been poured dirty water onto him. Benjamin knew that he would lose points again in front of the Queen.
Prince Edward was not in the tower bridge, but was two blocks away in the St. Paul's Cathedral.
The royal family had chosen to meet with guests in the distance, and had somewhat promoted the idea that they were the gods of power. Ordinary officials were waiting by the river, while members of the royal family were waiting by the side of God.
Kings all over the world seem to be good at using mysticism to give points to their rule, and so is China in Europe.
Sir Gordon turned his head and was about to leave when Benjamin suddenly called out to him, ”No, you can't go! ”We specially summoned you back from overseas because we wanted to use your special relationship with the Qing royal family …”
”You are the Governor of the Qing Dynasty, you have the authority of two nations, it would be more convenient for you to talk to Tongzhi than it is for us! ”You can't go …”
”Colonel Walster... ”Please go to the Prince's place and ask him to mobilize a group of Janissaries to help maintain order in London's urban areas …”
If Xiao Letian was here and saw the young man in front of him, he would definitely be shocked. This twenty-something year old colonel was going to be Britain's Field Marshal and Commander-in-Chief.
Walster took the Prime Minister's note, saluted, and asked his attendant for a war horse. He galloped to the cathedral.
Gladstone was chatting with a friend not too far away, but his eyes were constantly observing Benjamin's group. When he saw that the colonialist were at a loss and did not know what to do, he couldn't help but feel pleased.
”A group of war criminals who only know how to invade, what do you know about internal affairs? Do you all understand the soft power of a country? ”How laughable …”
Beside them, a government official who was also from Liberal Party nodded and said, ”Yes, these war criminals have consumed countless taxpayers' money and set the world on fire. However, our country has not increased our education funds for many years …”
”The entire nation has been shouting for decades, but nothing has happened! Why? ”If it wasn't for the fact that these war maniacs stole the funds, then it would all be because of the well-being of the people …”
”You're still right. Only by improving the literacy rate of all citizens can we solve many fundamental problems …”
”Just like the chaos caused by today's four hundred thousand people, the core reason is still the quality of the people! Imagine, if everyone was educated, understood the words and understood the law, would there be such confusion? ”
”Even if there is, it will be a lot smaller! ”If we use less police force, we can maintain order. In many streets, we can promote discipline, routes, etc.”
”The higher the quality of the citizens, the lower the number of officers needed and the higher the quality of the police, the more efficient the management will be … This is how the social order came about, and this is the foundation of all of us in England! ”
”How could Benjamin and the rest understand the painstaking efforts of the Party Leader, haha … I'm afraid they don't even understand this point! ”
