Romanian Eagle

Chapter 80 Awards

After Eder was full of expectations for Romanian agricultural machinery to occupy Europe. Money from the Rubber Crisis also poured into the royal account, culminating in the last deposit of £230,000 on June 3. Edel sent a telegram to Henry Ford, intending to unite all European and American auto companies to suppress this rubber foam caused by himself.

In the face of this union, Henry Ford had long wanted to do so. Now the European and American auto manufacturers have long been dissatisfied with the high rubber prices, this time the public will refuse the invitation. On the 12th, all the auto industry expressed dissatisfaction with the price of rubber and plans to use alternatives.

In the end, the price of rubber fell immediately, and a lot of speculative funds were evaporated, resulting in a total loss of more than 55 million taels of silver (an increase of 10 million taels over the history), of which the Romanian royal family, which invested the most, received nearly 30% of the 15.8 million taels of silver.

In the office, Edel looked at his thin captain and said. "Carrust has worked hard for you this time, and all the personnel in this operation should be rewarded."

"His Royal Highness, how much do you think the award is appropriate?"

Facing the question from the head guard, Edel was a little embarrassed. If it is less, it will not show sincerity, and if it is too much, it will make Edel's flesh hurt, and it is not easy to handle at all. Carust suggested after seeing the embarrassed look of the crown prince. "Otherwise, send less and give rewards in honor."

Hearing the suggestion of the head guard, Edel thought it was a solution. After some final thinking, Eder decided to issue the Royal Knights Medal to the front-line personnel who actually operated, and each person was awarded 100,000 lei. Others were awarded the Royal Family Membership Medal, rewarding 60,000 lei.

Both of these medals were established by King Carol I on February 10, 1891, on the occasion of the 10th anniversary of Romania's promotion to the kingdom, in recognition of officers who enjoyed outstanding military service, and the Hohenzollern family of Swabian Department of civil people who have made outstanding contributions. The Hohenzollern Royal Order is divided into four grades: Grand Cross (necklace, ribbon, star medal), Commander (collar ribbon, star medal), Knight (chest ribbon) and member (chest ribbon).

After Edel made a decision, Carrust and the waiting staff returned to the country to be uniformly awarded medals by the crown prince, and the bonus was distributed to them by the captain of the guard.

After a month and a half, Fredericia and his group returned to Constanta on the ship Bambruno. Seeing the long-lost Romanian scenery, the three felt ups and downs in their hearts and felt homesick for more than a year abroad.

The three all changed their real names after arriving in the United States, after introducing themselves to each other. Fredericia knew that Stocker, who controlled the funds of the three, was originally named Anskell, a native of Ubach County, and had worked for the royal family for ten years. This was the first time to speculate. Felix, whose original name was Visciacu, was a man from this port who joined the guard three years ago. Seeing that the ship was slowly docked at the dock, the three walked down.

"When you two come to my place, you must have a good drink with you. My family has a nice manor in the suburbs. I like the cheese bread and prosciutto made by my mother the most. You should come and try it too." After disembarking, Viceyaku invited the two of them.

"Don't worry, Anskell and I will definitely go there and taste your mother's craft." Fredericia, who had already established a deep friendship with him, agreed, and made a decision for Anskell by the way.

After hearing Federici's agreement, Vissayacu also answered immediately. "That's it."

"Don't worry, we're going back," Anskell interjected.

Just after the three of them decided to go to Bisaiaku's house, a voice sounded beside them. "Three, I don't want to plan your conversation, but the captain of the guard is still waiting for you in Bucharest."

The three turned their heads and saw a young man on the side urging them.

"Tucaster, I didn't expect you to pick us up." Vissiyaku said something pleasantly surprised.

"Yes, Bisaiku, I heard that I will come to pick up your application,

Impressed? "Tucaster stepped forward and gave Vissayacu a hug.

After the separation, Vissayacu pointed to the two of them and introduced them to Tucaster. "This is Fredericia, this is Anskell, all my good friends."

"I've known it for a long time." Tucast replied to his friend and said to the two of them. "Nice to meet you, Mr. Fredericia, Mr. Anskell." After speaking, he explained his relationship with Bisaiaku to the two of them. "I played with Vissiyaku since we were young, and later joined the Guards together."

"Then let's hurry up, after all, it is not a good choice to let the captain of the guard wait for us." Federici suggested.

No one wanted to make the chief guard wait any longer, and arrived in Bucharest in the evening on the day's train. On the way, Tucaster told the three that they would be awarded the Royal Knights Medal as a reward for their successful operation this time, as well as a bonus of 100,000 lei each.

The three of them don't really care about the bonuses. The three of them have used it a lot in Shanghai Huahua World, and they have a lot of temptation for the medals. Once the money is spent, there is no more, but the medal will be recorded for a lifetime. When they are old, they can take out the medal to tell their children and grandchildren the history of the scenery.

The three rested for the night in Bucharest, and the captain of the guard came to see them early the next morning. Carust spoke to the three straight people standing in front of him.

"The three of you are very good. In this operation, you made the greatest contribution and received the most funds."

Hearing the praise from the head guard, the three replied. "This is inseparable from everyone's support and Your Excellency's command."

Seeing the three energetic people, Carust was very satisfied, and was most satisfied with the performance of Fredericia. He was indeed a talent that even the professional intelligence department wanted to grab.

"Okay, you don't need to shout the slogan." After Carust finished, he took out three thick file bags from his bag. Put it in their hands one by one, and say it after all this is done. "This is a bonus to reward you for your contribution to the Kingdom of Romania. Although it is not much, you all know that Romania needs capital to develop industry, and it requires everyone's efforts."

"Captain of the Guard, can I ask a question?" Fredericia asked after Calust finished speaking.

Seeing that the people he admired the most in this operation asked questions, the captain of the guards planned to answer them. "If Frederick has any questions, please ask."

"When will our medals be issued?"

After hearing this was the question, Carust asked him with a smile. "Can't wait?"

"Yes, I have always dreamed of having a medal on my chest."

"So are we."

After hearing the three people's answers, the head guard stated the specific time. "Tomorrow in the palace, His Royal Highness will award you honors in person. This is the honor you deserve, and it makes you proud."

After the captain of the guard finished speaking to them, all three were very satisfied. After sending off the head guard, the three of them were looking forward to tomorrow's ceremony.

Early the next morning, the three of them put on their newly issued uniforms and came to the palace to wait. Here they met all the people in this operation, and the twenty or thirty people were eagerly waiting for the crown prince's award ceremony.

At about nine o'clock, a guard came to inform everyone that they could go in. Under the leadership of this guard, they came to the hall of the palace, and after everyone lined up, the front-line action team was placed in the first row. The three of Fredericia were ranked in the best position in the middle, which can be seen as a preferential treatment for them. After they were lined up, the crown prince walked in front of them with the captain of the bodyguard. Behind him were two guards carrying trays with boxes containing medals on them.

Edel said while looking at the excited crowd in front of him. "On behalf of the Romanian royal family, I would like to thank everyone for their contributions in this operation. I am very satisfied with this operation and hope that everyone can serve Romania better in the future."

In the face of the crown prince's speech, all those who participated in this speculation were very excited. They can see the role of the royal family in promoting Romania and believe that Romania will become stronger in the future.

Edel began to award medals to the first-row recipients of the Royal Knights Medal. He encouraged everyone with two words of thanks and encouragement, and put the medal on the recipient's left chest. When it was Frederic's turn, Edel looked at the man Calust had not mentioned.

"Your Excellency Fredericia, thank you for your contribution to the royal family. The captain of the guard is full of praise for you, and believes that one-third of the credit for this operation should belong to you."

"Your Highness is very kind, this is all the love of the captain of the bodyguard, and I don't dare to take credit." Fredericia hurriedly pushed and dragged it, he could feel the feeling of others staring at him, which contained surprise, envy, jealousy, surprise, Disdain and other meanings.

"I remember you Fredericia, and I hope you can make greater contributions to the royal family." After Edel finished speaking, he took a knight's medal and put it on his chest, patted him on the shoulder to show his encouragement. Edel admires him a little now, and plans to let the guards grow and train them for a long time, which will be of great use in the future.

Soon Edel finished the first row of knighthood medals, and the medals of honorary members of the royal family were not treated so well. Eder put the medal directly on the chest of the recipient, and soon after the medal was distributed, a group of people gathered around the crown prince to take pictures. Edel directly asked Frederic to stand on his left, and everyone present knew that this guy was going to make a name for himself in the future.

Edel went to work after taking pictures with them, and the captain of the guard stayed to find Fredericia and asked. "Are you willing to continue serving the royal family?"

"Of course I would."

"Very well, you take a break first, I will call you when I have a task."

After speaking, the captain of the guard also left, leaving behind Fredericia and two friends.

"Frederici got the medal and went to my house to celebrate." Visciacu appeared in front of him with Anskel.

"Okay Bisaiku, I'm going to eat poor you."

The three friends decide to go to the Bisaiaku's house to relax and unwind.
