I am Peter III, Emperor of the Hexagon of the Goose Kingdom

Chapter 122 Deputy Minister of Commerce, State External Relations! 【110】【This chapter must read】

"Daliye, you are the Deputy Minister of Commerce under the Privy Council, and you are a fourth-class civil servant."

Then he looked at Vorontsov and said:
"The current personnel of the Privy Council will remain unchanged for the time being, but from now on only second-class civil servants and above can join the Privy Council."

Vorontsov froze for a moment and said:

"Yes."

Then some doubts:

"But Your Majesty, there is no Commerce Department under the Privy Council, only the Commerce Committee."

Peter laughed:

"Change this, and it will be called the Ministry of Commerce in the future."

It's called the Business Committee. Isn't the word "committee" random?
Vorontsov nodded, he understood and then said:

"What about the candidate for the minister?"

Peter said:
"Let's leave it blank for now. The people on the committee will be assigned to the Ministry of Commerce first, and will be led by Dalier. Only third-class civil servants can serve as ministers."

Hearing the emperor's words, the people present fell into deep thought.

Minister of General Affairs Vorontsov is now the highest first-class civil servant, and Deputy Minister of General Affairs Bestutev is a second-class civil servant. If the minister of commerce can only be held by a third-class civil servant, does it mean that the minister of commerce is a springboard to enter the Privy Council?
Dalier couldn't help but feel excited.

From no official position to a fourth-class civil servant, it can be said that the fashion he bought before is not a loss!

Not only is it saving money for future generations, but His Majesty actually gave such a huge reward.

"Your Majesty, thank you very much for your cultivation and promotion, I will definitely live up to your expectations!!!"

Dalier stood up and promised impassionedly.

Peter nodded. The higher the ranks, the more pure they must be. The minister will not let go so easily. All third-class civil servants must be financially transparent. This matter will also be done later.

The road is long and long, but he is only 16 years old now, and the national policy is usually calculated on an annual basis, but he has enough time.

The fate of the empire will be strong because of him!
Having said most of the above, only the military and war reserves remain.

As a matter of state, the military and religion are the most important. Peter is not planning to make any changes to religion now, but the military and war reserves...

After asking, it is obviously all about conventional warfare.

Peter hesitated for a while, but finally did not propose his own changes.

National carriage races and wartime are all transformed into war horses,

Establish border warehouses all over the country to support logistics during wars,

Reasonably matching army meals, preventing septicemia and improving combat morale all cost money in the end.

But now, I thought tens of millions of rubles would be more, but excluding the immovable ones, even if his own is posted, it is too little for the whole country.

Must find a way to make money.

Peter knocked on the table and said:

"Everyone, today's meeting is here for the time being. Minister of General Affairs, potatoes are the top priority. Arrange it immediately. There must be no neglect. If this matter is done well, you will always be a noble subject in my heart, otherwise , I don't want to embarrass your family, understand?"

Peter's face was very serious when he said it.

Vorontsov was shocked, and immediately said solemnly:

"Yes! Your Majesty! I will do my best!"

Peter nodded, and explained:

"Daliye, you are in charge of selecting tall, slender girls with outstanding temperament from the nobles of the country, ladies are also fine. I want to hold a fashion show in Russia to make our Russia famous."

"Yes!"

Dalier was also excited. He started to do things right after he took office, and it was related to fashion. He was full of energy.

Peter looked at Vivian and said:

"You are in charge of organizing the first fashion conference of the palace, and get this done before the princesses from all over the world leave. I hope to maximize the impact of this time."

"Yes!"

Vivian was also nervous and excited. She was grateful for His Majesty's attention, but she was a little worried about whether she could do well.

Peter looked at her again and said:

"You can discuss it with Ekaterina."

Vivian saluted again and accepted the order.

Then Peter looked around the crowd and said:

"I'll emphasize the confidentiality regulations again. Whoever proposed today's incident is not allowed to be disclosed. If there are rumors about changes in Russia, it must be initiated by Vorontsov and Bestutev. I am still an ignorant An emperor who likes to have fun and doesn't care about state affairs, understand?"

Everyone's expressions were shocked, and after thinking about it, they couldn't help but feel like lying in the grass.

Judging from His Majesty's words, it turns out that His Majesty was pretending when he was the Crown Prince.

From the crown prince to the emperor, and the emperor still pretends to be, what should I pretend to be?Unify the world?

Everyone responded with weird faces.

Peter said:

"The others can leave. Bestutev and Vivienne stay."

"Your Majesty, Wan An!"

"Your Majesty, Wan An!"

"Your Majesty, Wan An!"

"..."

As the ministers left one by one, Bestutev finally breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, His Majesty planned to talk to him, otherwise he could not be relieved.

But now his hopes are also high. If His Majesty was pretending before, it means that His Majesty is not stupid. Judging from the performance just now and the amiable expression towards his courtiers, he is a wise master.

Talking about things with Mingzhu, he likes and gets excited!
Peter glanced at Vivian and said, "The rest of the conversation is none of your business, keep remembering it."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Vivienne said respectfully, she could hear the solemnity in His Majesty's tone, obviously what she was talking about was not a trivial matter.

She even lowered her gaze, only staring at the paper and pen in her hand.

Bestutev took a deep breath and spoke cautiously:

"Your Majesty, what would you like to discuss with your loyal courtier?"

Peter smiled and said:

"Talk about what?"

"Bestutev, you are the Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs in charge of foreign affairs. I want to talk to you about international relations."

With a thump in his heart, Bestutev let out a shout of excitement and let his horse come over.

He became more respectful and calm and said:

"Your Majesty, please give me instructions."

Peter said: "Let's talk about your opinion first, and I won't have any room for you to refute."

:...

Bestutev was silent for a moment, straightened his expression, and his breathing began to become distant. He said slowly:

"Your Majesty, please forgive my abruptness. A core of Russia's foreign affairs is aimed at the ever-expanding Prussia."

After careful observation of the emperor's expression, seeing that the emperor's expression did not change, and he did not appear angry, Bestutev continued:
"For other countries, the UK is the farthest away and the strongest. It is the first object we want to unite with."

"Although France is far away, it is a powerful country in Europe after all. We are also a big country on land. There will be a war in the future, and we cannot form alliances."

"If you want to contain the ever-expanding Prussia, Theresa, who has a deep hatred for Frederick, must unite."

"Saxony borders Prussia, and its national power is not as strong as Prussia. In order to prevent it from being annexed by Prussia, we also have to form an alliance."

"Although our estuary has the Baltic Sea, it is not as meaningful as the Black Sea. If we want to develop further, the Ottoman Empire must be resolved, but peace is the priority now."

"Sweden was just defeated by us last year. Johanna is about to serve as Queen of Sweden, which can temporarily guarantee peace in the north. The Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth is an obstacle that hinders our westward advance and must be removed."
