Chapter 462 November 1st

Things were finally completed...

The seemingly short time outside the world has determined the birth of a new sovereignty from early August to the end of October, but for An Feng and Joanna, it has taken too much time and energy to prepare. They have discussed repeatedly before, citing whether they can do it and why they cannot do it.

They also frequently discussed with the consortium, decided to decide where the bottom line was, and asked people with rich social experience such as Bazer to consolidate their authority and create a positive image - more specifically, how to grasp a government without sensation, just as they once influenced the United States.

They discussed with their relatives and friends, especially Joanna's mother. For this decision, she supported her daughter. In her opinion, with Joanna's current prestige, it is better to show off her wings and soar into the sky than to be ordinary... Their great help comes from Kelly.

Some relatives and friends also found it incredible, but did not strongly oppose it - if he had been sick, he would have been dissuaded and greeted a lot, but now, the couple has reached the top of the legend, and as an ordinary citizen, they really cannot support the halo of savior and spiritual leader.

Finally, they had to hurry up and tutor the etiquette necessary for the head of state. Although the monarch is symbolic, they are all on major occasions, visits to foreign countries, etc. Former President Anderson specially taught them the tricks, and the butler Brandon also specially prepared royal etiquette.

This day came after a series of complicated preparations.

The night before the agreement was signed, Joanna asked An Feng: "Do you think I can do it well?"

"Don't worry, you will!" An Feng said, "Just like you encouraged everyone to stand up and lead them to fight the disease!"

"Yes!" she said firmly.

...

After the signing of the No. 30 Agreement will be officially announced at No. 31.

All over the world learned about this shocking news, and countless media broadcasted and commented. Everyone’s friends were shocked!

The only big deal - the buyer is private! If it is a country, it will be surprising at most, but now it is a private purchase of a country!

People are flipping through yesterday's Forbes list. The world's richest man has assets of 80 billion US dollars. Some people think that the richest one is more than this money, and there may be hundreds of billions of assets - and for 420 billion transactions, this thing is cash!

How much cash can you have for hundreds of billions of assets? How much assets are needed for 420 billions of cash? You must have more than one trillion assets!

Who is this? Will you let people live?

This kind of thought arose in the minds of countless people around the world, and there is no idea of ​​comparison or transcendence. This is simply impossible.

From Europe to Asia, from Asia to America... people are all stunned.

There was gossip on the Internet before, and people in reality guessed that the assets of the An couple may be very terrifying, but their imagination is still insufficient. No one dares to think about this. They are actually confident that they will take out more than 400 billion cash! Even if they are not paid in one lump sum, it is still terrifying enough.

The Chinese media directly titled: "Top rich people are now popular to buy countries"!

The hot discussion among the people is endless. Netizens believe that their hero An is invincible in the world and the whole universe cannot stop him from burning money.

Some people even wrote comments about recognizing him as their godfather, finding opportunities to hook up with his daughter, offering chrysanthemums to his son, and other comments about being unconventional... They were all amazed at this terrifying wealth, and showing off their wealth in any form in the past. They were all weak in their savings and planes. Now they showed off their country!

American society was also extremely shocked, but people's emotions were obviously calmer, because too many miracles and successes were staged in the United States, envy was inevitable, but it also proved indirectly that there was a chance to achieve the same success here. Then countless people squeezed their heads to find the "American Dream".

And the US government vaguely felt that they were making trouble.

But it's too late to do anything now. An Feng's important assets are all under Joanna's name. She is a British man - she is about to become a monarch with absolute immunity. An Feng's economic behavior in the United States is legal and reasonable. He contributes huge taxes every year, but he has no way to check him.

Moreover, with his network of relationships, even if he checks, he cannot go deeper.

It is certain that the world was spent in shock this day, and the legendary figure not long ago has now created another legend that cannot be surpassed.

...

The first day of November was established as the National Day of the Kingdom of Sardinia.

They got up early, and the local parliamentary building in Cagliari ahead, Joanna watched the first meeting of the founding of the country as an uncrowned queen, and the Provisional Government formally discussed and issued the constitution and the latest bill of the new country, establishing the foundation of the entire kingdom.

The country is called the Kingdom of Sardinia; the system is constitutional monarchy, specifically the parliamentary constitutional monarchy; the king (queen) is the head of state and the supreme commander of the armed forces, while the parliament represents the will of the people, is divided into two houses, and exercises legislative power; the prime minister is the head of government.

A lot of content absorbs the characteristics of other constitutional monarchies.

The national flag of the country is also established, with white crosses, red base and blue edges. This aspect is greatly influenced by the Sardinian dynasty, but after all, it was innovative on the original basis. The national anthem is currently established as "Long Live Sardinia". There are only songs and lyrics that are still uncertain, and are provided by talented composers in the local area.

There are many details, and the meeting lasted for three and a half hours.

In short, the parliament gave An Feng the result he wanted, and the monarch enjoyed great privileges of exemption, and these privileges also allowed her to hand over the land rights, which belonged to her in 999, but in fact the manager was the national government, and the queen had the right to supervise and advise.

An Feng doesn't care about land rights, and he doesn't care about taxes. The most important thing is that overseas tax exemption is registered with several companies in the offshore financial district, royal holdings, and consortium members participate in proportion. It is expected that the taxes and fees that can be avoided in the future will be a terrifying number.

The queen still has many rights. The Constitution clearly stipulates that she is the land owner and is only entrusted to the government for management in exchange for corresponding privileges. This constitution is an important case. Once an objection arises, two-thirds of the majority of the two houses need to pass it and then dissolve the parliament and conduct elections. The newly elected two houses approve the amendment. They also start to develop a new constitution, and convene a referendum and decide the result.

It is difficult to amend the constitution involving the rights of the queen. After the parliament is proposed, the queen must be disbanded and the next new parliament will decide. And it must pass a referendum. As long as the queen does not make a major mistake - the constitutional monarchy decides that she can hardly make mistakes - her rights will be difficult to touch.

In addition, An Feng has the help of a consortium think tank. The royal family controls the country's major economic lifeline and manipulates politicians and takes two-pronged control. The parliament even puts forward the first step will be an impossible assumption - let alone disbanding the parliament in a furious way.

This method is actually considered to protect the rights of future generations.

In addition to the most desired privileges of An Feng and the consortium, the Queen's rights include: signing and promulgating laws; convening and dissolving parliament; nominating candidates for prime ministers, appointing prime ministers, and removing the prime ministers according to the constitutional provisions; appointing and removing members of the government according to the prime minister's advice; publishing the decrees passed by the ministers' meeting. Granting civilian and military ranks, awarding medals according to the constitutional provisions; listening to reports on state affairs...

These are also the same as general parliamentary monarchies. Many people believe that the constitutional monarchy kings (queen) are decorations. In fact, they have the ultimate skill - they can hardly use it. They can disband the parliament and remove the prime minister, which is equivalent to the sword of Damocles hanging above their heads.

Be cautious. This kind of rights cannot be used frequently, such as the Queen of England. But you cannot deny that she can use it - the only thing is that she is worried that she will not have enough prestige, which will make the people psychologically resist. On the premise that prestige is enough, the Queen can dominate the privileges of a king of a country.

But the concept of whether to use privileges or not is false. In 1975, Elizabeth II asked the Governor to decisively remove the Australian government Prime Minister and dissolve the upper and lower houses. Everyone was fired. A month later, the new government was reorganized under the supervision of the Governor.

(ps: Specific content Wikipedia ‘1975 Australian Constitutional Crisis’)

The right to standardize constitutional monarchy, coupled with the little exchange of land management, does not have the privilege of proclaiming it. The nature of the kingdom tends to be a binary constitutional monarchy (the dual monarch has a great power), specifically, the queen's rights lie between parliamentary and dual.

The reason for this decision was that the royal family had too strong influence.

People all over the world respect them. Most of the residents of Sardinia were encouraged by Joanna and rescued by the antibodies developed by An Feng at the darkest time of their lives. These two items alone are enough to make everyone support them. There is something to say that when you are in awe, those who flatter you are difficult to remember, but when you are most lost and desperate, you will be grateful to those who lend you a helping hand.

In general, prestige makes the queen very powerful.

The last one is closely related to the Queen: the coronation ceremony. Because this is the first time the founding of the country, there is no previous example. Although the history of the monarch in Sardinia can be traced back to the Sardinian dynasty or the earliest inhabited by the Phoenicians, this is not the same history.

After considering all aspects and the Queen's attitude, she decided to crown her after October next year.

The current conditions are not suitable. The Queen does not have a palace. Cagliari does have some leftover palaces, but it was from the Garibaldi era and the Catholic atmosphere is strong. Joanna is from the Anglican Church. Although in An Feng's view, they all believe in the same Lord, it will be very painful to change her faith.

However, Protestants on the island account for 40% of the population (fiction), which is the same as Catholic Church. The coronation ceremony a year later can be held in the Protestant church, which is also a compromise. It did not make the queen who had just settled in feel bad at the first moment, and everyone can understand the issue of religion.

It was almost noon after the meeting.

There were crowds on both sides of the street outside the parliament building, and countless residents gathered here spontaneously to celebrate and plan to see the true face of the queen they unanimously recommended. Some people came to occupy the place before dawn. When An Feng arrived by car in the morning, he thought that the tents that resisted demolition...

When they were about to leave the seat, the bodyguard notified them of the grand occasion outside.

Joanna looked at An Feng, but An Feng's face was calm and she had no intention of opening her mouth. She was smart and immediately reacted. She was now the real head of state and a noble queen. She said: "I will appear in front of the people when communicating with the police to maintain order."

"Yes." The bodyguard left immediately, and the sheriff waiting outside received the news. He immediately issued an order, and the police stood in front of the crowd to maintain order.

Soon, in the midst of great anticipation, Joanna walked out with her husband. She stood on the steps of the parliament. The crowd around her burst into crying and applause. She raised her hand and waved it. This movement had been trained many times, which was very standard. An Feng's eyes swept around.

The streets were filled with people and could hardly accommodate their feet. Joanna walked down the steps slowly, came to the crowd, and waved with a smile in the cheers. A month ago, she established her public image issues, reduced her seriousness, and smiled more.

But the queen still needs to have majesty, and she has to grasp the degree of smile. She practiced in front of the mirror for a while, and seeing the enthusiastic reactions of the people now, Queen Elizabeth, who was cheering in English in their mouths, knew that her efforts were not in vain and her image was very good.

However, the Queen's name is different.

Her full name is: Elizabeth Joanna Sercy Steinville-An, which consists of a church name, two self-names and a combination of surnames. The combination of surnames was suggested by An Feng. He doesn't mind which surname the child is from his parents... but it is obviously more appropriate to spell it.

Queen Elizabeth is actually the correct name in English. The name of the teaching is the most common in foreign countries, but Joanna prefers the names given by her parents, including the two children in the family, which are also called names rather than teaching names. In the end, she decided to call her self-name.

Correspondingly, the two children were also allowed to notify the public in writing that Claire Alice Kelly Stanville Ann was not called Princess Claire, but Princess Alice; Alexander Fred James Stanville Ann was called Prince Fred.

The English name order is messed up, fortunately it is Sardinia here, and better yet she is the queen and she makes the decision.

Following Joanna, the crowd around them was in a warm mood. They also reached out to shake hands with Joanna, but she smiled and kept a certain distance from them. An Feng next to her was very low-key, but some people called his name, but the Italian pronunciation was very strange.

And Joanna's name is also wrong...

An Feng was considering whether to change a name that was convenient to pronounce.

According to European practice, he is the queen's husband and is generally awarded the title of "duke". The title can also be called Prince (P-consort, actually "后家官网"), and add a convenient name, because in the future, it will inevitably be available on TV and news, so you can't be casual.
