Ferdinand always does what he says he will do. Since he intends to build a food processing plant, he will start to prepare now.

His own domains are mainly growing wheat, barley, sugar beets, potatoes, and flax. His livestock is mostly raising pigs and cattle.

Therefore to increase the benefits of doing processing support, a flour mill is normally the first choice. The second is the sugar plant. Oh, potatoes are good for making French fries as well. You can make your own fries. Flax, you must open a weaving factory or a garment factory, which he can put aside. The slaughterhouse can be there. It does not require much effort. Do you want to do...

As he thought about it and saw it, Ferdinand could proudly say: The final quest of the feudal lords came to an end: food, clothing, housing, and transportation, which were all self-sufficient.

It is not that simple to open a factory because his father died early. His family's industry is simply a consumer investor. A proper aristocrat and has not yet had time to become a capitalist.

Well, let's start with himself, the mix of big aristocrats and big capitalists, the dominant force in today's society.

At present, Ferdinand has some problems. Although his family also has shares in some factories, they are not lead by his family. It is indeed left behind in terms of talent reserves.

"Butler Karl, send someone to find out the status of the flour processing mills near Vienna!" Ferdinand has finally decided to start with the flour processing mills.

"Yes, Your Highness. I'll do that right away!" Karl Čekov courtly replied.

Ferdinand is adjusting to his status as an aristocrat better. Unlike when he first arrived, he loves to do it all himself. Things like letting the maids help with dressing, clothes, and food are his life now.

Ferdinand intends to go to the city guard to report for duty. Except for the days when he just traversed, he kept working on time to his shift every day. He just kept going away until now.

Although no one inquires, he still feels too wrong. Because, where to find such a good job.

It is important to know that the German aristocracy always has the custom of serving in the army. If a person does not serve in the army, he might become a coward. It will make it very hard for him to find a proper woman for his family. Naturally, the Ferdinand family, who were also part of the German aristocracy, has kept this custom.

But the Austro-Hungarian Empire was rotten in the end. Few officers felt like moping around like Ferdinand.

The old emperor could not do anything about it. In order to keep the army combat-ready and not let them bring others down, he simply threw them into the city guards in one place.

Of course, if the person has to suffer, he can also leave them. The original Ferdinand has always dislike these children who have been in charge. The original and they are not the same streams. There is no much friend left in it.

When he came into the City Guard building, a smell of rot hit him. It was the same as he recalls, a shabby and old office building that seems worn out and crumbling.

"This is too shabby! No wonder no one comes to work. With this place, only demons are willing to come here. I don't know how the previous one kept it up!" Ferdinand secretly spat out.

Along the way, except for a few lazy guards on duty, Ferdinand never found another person.

He found his office, a small room of less than twenty square meters. A small wooden table, a chair, a teacup, and a stack of outdated newspapers were all he had in the office of the former one.

The room has a thick layer of dust. It seems that no one has been here for a long time. Ferdinand gave up the idea of doing the cleaning by himself after looking at it.

He went straight back the way he came. He didn't even find an officer in his unit, so that he couldn't report his arrival. The line of city guards made him feel down. For such a force to fight on, no wonder they were beaten up by Russia and lost their sense of purpose.

Ferdinand also knew that it was just a few of them, which were specially set up for them, with no drills and no orders. How could they say that they are also one of the five major European powers when the other armies might still have some combat power?

But when he thought about the strife of the Austro-Hungarian peoples, Ferdinand shook his head. The old emperor will need to know eight languages. It is terrible to think about it.

"Then how should we command the army? If the army is separate according to each ethnic group, then it is easy to split the country. If it is mixed and spread out, to ensure its combat strength, then the commander first has to learn the other ethnic languages. Who will find a group of scholar." "It's also the root cause of the fall of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, I think! Unless we make it fast and unify the language and culture now, even without a war, this country will not exist for long!" Ferdinand secretly thought.

The Balkans are not much better than Austria-Hungary in terms of ethnicity. The only good thing about them is that they have fewer people. When did a small population become an advantage? Ferdinand thinks about it and becomes amused.

Ferdinand is still a little uneasy when walking on the streets of Vienna. Compared to the future, Vienna is as bustling now. But sadly, there is no link with clean and tidy. Many places are smelly!

If you can't change the world, then you have to adapt to it! Ferdinand, now, is a good example.

Before he knew it, he came to the door of the Volvo. Ferdinand took a stand and saw. He gazes at the crowd of people who come in and out, with big bags and small bags. As people talk and laugh, they are happy to return.

Ferdinand content with this. He strides towards the Volvo and gives a hand signal to the security guards at the door to remain there.

After that, he went into the supermarket and saw that the service staff was busy working. When Ferdinand came in, and they were about to come over, he quickly made a sign for them to resume.

There was some chaos inside. Many goods were in a mess. The staff was busy trying to restore them, and there was a lot of garbage on the floor. Ferdinand got a frown and got out of it.

As a whole, he is still content that the people are doing their jobs and working to the best of their ability, and business is booming.

However, it may be the limits of the times that they did not consider the weight of hygiene and customers' comfort to shop.

Of course, in the 19th century, perhaps the people also got a habit of it. Vienna is stinking, and the streets are full of garbage. There is not so much demand for hygiene.

Ferdinand still went to Franz, that is, to recognize his work. He also put forward the demands of hygiene.

Ferdinand prefers to raise some costs now in order to keep customers. After all, it is easy to choose between clean and tidy on one side and messy on the other.

This era is the most pleasant for capitalists. They can make workers work overtime as much as they want, without the unions of later times and the threat of the Soviets.

Ferdinand would like to think that the labor costs have not grown. However, with the staff, there is an extra job of cleaning at all times.

Protests, demos, strikes, demands for wage increases, etc., all terms deep in Ferdinand's memory, never came up.
