March 15, 1925, AD 2766.
Rome, Italy.
"I didn't expect that Italy now has punctual trains."
After walking out of the train station in Rome, Li Xiaoren couldn't help but sigh with his companions who came to pick up the train.
The companion who came to pick up the car was named Jin Dezheng, and he was the owner of "Star Fruit Co., Ltd."
When he heard this, he smiled and said: "Mr.
Li, since Mussolini's Fascist Party came to power, if nothing else, at least the trains in Italy are on time."
Because the First World War lasted longer in this plane, the fascist party came to power nearly a year later than in the history of the original time and space.
On September 10, 1923, Mussolini convened a meeting of more than 30,000 armed fascists in Naples, claiming that the power of Rome, Italy and the government belonged to them, and announced a march on Rome.
On September 14, more than 70,000 fascists dressed in black shirts and fully armed marched toward Rome in four directions.
They encountered no resistance from government troops and police along the way and occupied the transportation line from northern Italy to Rome.
On the evening of the 17th, the Fact government decided to impose martial law, but King Emmanuel III disagreed, and Fact was forced to resign.
On the 18th, the fascists entered Rome.
On the evening of September 20, the king invited Mussolini to Rome and asked him to serve as prime minister and organize a cabinet.
After Mussolini seized power, he established fascist autocratic rule across the country.
On September 25, Mussolini was appointed prime minister, and the fascist dictatorship was officially established in Italy.
Once Mussolini came to power, he gradually established a dictatorship.
For more than a year, all opposition parties were eliminated internally, workers and democratic movements were suppressed, and chauvinist and racist ideas were propagated.
The new electoral law passed at the beginning of this year guaranteed the fascists a two-thirds majority in the country.
In addition to controlling Congress and the media, the Fascist Party also intensified its assassination campaign against various left-wing parties and progressive figures.
At the same time, Mussolini continued to rectify and purge the fascist party, expelling so-called "unstable elements" and party members who failed to implement the instructions of the party center or harbored ambitions.
Mussolini also paid great attention to school reform and closely integrated this reform with military expansion and war preparations.
Mussolini tightened his control over the military.
He personally served as commander-in-chief of the army, navy, and air force, as the supreme commander-in-chief of Italy.
And ordered all troops in the country to obey his orders absolutely.
On March 1 this year, he declared the National Fascist Party as the only legal political party in Italy, thus ensuring the dictatorship of Italian fascism.
However, although Mussolini's fascist party established a dictatorship in the country, it is undeniable that they did a lot of practical things.
For example, in order to alleviate social conflicts, the fascist government used large-scale infrastructure construction methods.
Mussolini declared that he would build Italy into a new Rome.
They formulated a very large infrastructure plan and invited many famous architects to participate in the construction projects of the fascist regime.
They planned to build various modern infrastructures in Italy, such as new train stations, large airports, post offices, shopping malls, libraries, Universities, factories, and sanatoriums, and designed the new towns and rural layouts advocated by Mussolini that were essentially copycat Chinese township communities.
These beautiful, fully functional new communities and buildings are indeed very popular.
These buildings have also become propaganda exhibitions that glorify fascism to the public.
In addition to building infrastructure, the Fascist Party also vigorously cracked down on various criminal organizations.
For example, the Mafia, which had been rampant in Italy for many years, was severely banned.
The godfathers who used to be coaxed were dragged out of the city in carloads.
They were shot, and various local gangsters were also escorted by the army to various construction sites for forced labor, usually until they died.
Therefore, social security in Italy has improved significantly now.
In addition, Mussolini also launched a nationwide campaign to change customs.
As we all know, the Italian people are a very lazy nation.
For example, their trains are never on time.
How can such people realize Mussolini's dream and rebuild the Roman Empire?
So it must be changed.
However, the fascist party's "Change of Customs Movement" has just begun, and it is hard to say what it will be like, but at least the trains in Italy are finally on time.
Of course, what satisfied the Italian people most was the Fascist Party’s attack on big capitalists and big landowners.

Everyone knows that a country’s cake is limited.
If the rich and powerful get more, the common people will get less.
To be fair, although the Fascist Party was a right-wing party, it paid more attention to people's livelihood than many parties.
Of course, this was also the reason for Mussolini's reputation.
So after they came to power, they began to attack big capitalists and big landowners.
The Italian consortium is not very powerful to begin with.
Because it has only been established for a relatively short period of time, its scale and influence are far less than those of first-class powers such as Britain, the United States, France, and Germany.
The most unfortunate thing is that many of these consortiums are based in the northern industrial area, and this area was robbed by the Japanese locust army during World War I.
As a result, these consortiums that were just starting out were in bad luck.
Having been sacked by the locust army, their strength was greatly reduced, and they had no power to fight back in the face of the pressing pressure of the fascist party.
Not to mention the landowners, who had no power to fight back in front of the fascist party that took control of the army.
More than a year after the Fascist Party came to power, Italy's economic structure has undergone tremendous changes.
A large number of big capitalists and big landowners have rushed to the street.
Their means of production and funds have been confiscated, and some of them have been collected into the state treasury for use.
Improve people's livelihood and increase welfare.
The other part is broken down into smaller pieces and auctioned to the public.
Because the fascist party’s approach is to develop small and medium-sized enterprises and small and medium-sized landowners.
Although the evaluation of Mussolini and the Fascist Party in the history of the original time and space was one-sided criticism, at least now, they have indeed reversed Italy's decline.
Whether it is infrastructure construction, municipal construction or people's livelihood, they have received great improvements. improvement.
Jin Dezheng drove Li Xiaoren to the "Star Fruit Co., Ltd." in the southwest of Rome.
"Mr.
Li, this is our shop," Jin Dezheng introduced with a smile.
"Boss Jin, you are too self-effacing.
If you were still a small shop, your colleagues would still be crying and fainting in the toilet."
Li Xiaoren looked at the eight-story building and made a joke.
Star Fruit is currently one of the largest food trading companies in Italy, mainly engaged in the wholesale of various fruits, dried fruits and deeply processed products.
Its products mainly come from China, Africa and the Middle East, and its customers are countries and regions around the Mediterranean.
Now its business has reached all of Europe.
"Star Fruit" is ostensibly a Sino-Italian joint venture private enterprise.
The Chinese shares are composed of several private companies, accounting for a total of 55% of the shares.
The Italian shareholding is 45, of which the Fascist Party accounts for 30.
Among them, Mussolini is personally the largest shareholder of the Fascist Party.
He holds 15 shares, and the remaining 15 shares are held by many Italian small shareholders.
It is precisely because of this background that the development of "Star Fruit" in Italy has been so smooth.
Of course, seeing this share structure, you can also know that the background of this company is not that simple.
This is indeed the case.
Among the 55% shares in China, 25% come from a private company called "China Resources Industrial Group".
In this China Resources Group, a vest company affiliated to the National Intelligence Bureau accounts for another 30% of the shares.
Thirty of them were from a vest company of the Ministry of National Security.
In fact, it is not just "star fruit".
Now, almost all Chinese companies operating overseas will have connections with the National Intelligence Bureau, the Ministry of National Security or the Ministry of Social Security of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China.
After arriving at the chairman's office on the eighth floor, Li Xiaoren asked curiously: "Boss Jin, is the fruit business so easy to do?"
He just learned that this "star fruit" only uses refrigerated preservation ships for transportation.
There are more than twenty lines and hundreds of refrigerated wagons.
This business is really big.

"Haha, now the European economy has gradually recovered, and Europeans are willing to spend money on food.
The fruit business is still good now.
Is it possible that your Godzilla Group is also preparing to develop in this direction?"
Jin Dezong poured him a glass Tea, said with a smile.
"No, no, no, forget it.
As you know, our Godzilla Group's main fields are oil and mining, as well as machinery and electronics.
Fruits are not compatible with us."
Li Xiaoren shook his head.
The two chatted for a while and then got down to business.
Jin Dezheng said: "Our company has no direct contact with the German National Socialist Workers' Party, but has a relatively close relationship with the Fascist Party.
This time we also contacted them indirectly through the Fascist Party."
"Well, that's good, please," Li Xiaoren nodded, "Mr.
Li, if I remember correctly, your Godzilla Group also has some business dealings with the German Fengrui Group, and the Fengrui Group is in Germany.
Why don't you just ask them to come forward?"
Jin Dezheng was a little confused. asked.
"Haha, it's not because the relationship between Britain and Germany is not good.
If we go directly to Germany, the reaction from the British side will be too great, so we need to go around Italy," Li Xiaoren said helplessly.
Although the war between Britain and Germany has ended, the relationship has always been very bad, which has also affected the normal trade between the companies of the two countries.
The current situation is that as long as something can be traded with other countries, it must not be traded with the Germans, and of course the reverse is also true.
"Hahaha, there is no other way."
Jin Dezheng smiled and said, "Hitler will come here in person this time."
Rome train station.
"Woo!"
With a whistle, a passenger train from Berlin slowly stopped at the platform.
A group of Germans wearing swastika badges stepped off the train.
The leader was a short man with a mustache wearing a gray windbreaker.
When they reached the station door, they were greeted by two young Italians.
One of them asked in German: "Excuse me, is this Herr Hitler from the German National Socialist Workers' Party?"
The mustache took a step forward and said: "Yes, I am Hitler and you are" "We are employees of Star Fruit.
The boss ordered us to come to greet you.
Please come with us," the Italian said.
Yes, this is the mustache.
Although Comrade Mustache in this dimension also successfully became the leader of the Nazi Party, he did not have the opportunity to stage a beer hall coup.
Because Germany in this plane did not fail in World War I, and there was no Versailles Treaty that aroused hatred, and the mark did not depreciate crazily.
Naturally, France and Belgium sent troops to occupy the Ruhr.
In other words, the original time and space There were none of the incidents that aroused the German people's anger and patriotic enthusiasm towards the government.
The hatred among the German people was not high, so he naturally did not have that chance.
But gold will always shine, and a man with such a mustache also stood out after the war.
Now the German National Socialist Workers Party is the second largest party in Bavaria, and has successfully entered the Bavarian government, occupying the positions of several ministers.
Location.
Of course, Mustache's success is inseparable from the support of Germany's emerging conglomerate Fengrui Group.
Reinhardt, the president of Fengrui Group, was the vice chairman of the Nazi Party.
Yes, Mr.
Wen is really ready to support the mustache and has formulated a "mustache development plan".
There is no way, in this era, Germany really can't find another national leader as powerful as a mustache.

Germany without a mustache is incomplete Germany.
Only with a mustache in power can Germany become even more powerful as a troublemaker and continue to fight Britain and France.
Mustache’s visit to Italy this time was actually for the cooperation between the Nazi Party and the Fascist Party.
However, for Mussolini, the current Nazi Party was just a newcomer who had just entered the political arena.
As an old man, he would not show up in person.
Besides, this was just an informal meeting, so even the Fascist Party did not come forward.
Instead, the "Celebrity Fruit" who had a close relationship with him came forward to entertain him.
"In addition to Hitler, there are also key backbones such as Gregor Strasser, Rudolf Hess, and Hermann Goering," Jin Dezheng said.
Li Xiaoren shook his head and said: "Mussolini went too far.
He didn't care about anything and just left people hanging."
"The identities are different.
Mussolini is now the leader of the country, and Hitler doesn't even have control of the political power in Bavaria.
But that's okay.
You can meet with Hitler first to talk about cooperation."
That night, Li Xiaoren, Hitler and others met in a restaurant, and they talked and laughed happily.
After dinner, the two parties went to a hotel to continue discussing cooperation matters.
Afterwards, according to both parties, it was about corporate cooperation.
Only they themselves know exactly what was discussed.
Three months later, Mustache, who served as the Minister of Industry of Bavaria, went to China for a work inspection at the invitation of China's Hebei Iron and Steel Group:
