Prime Minister Primo's assassination also served as a warning to Carlo: he needed an intelligence organization loyal to him to gather information on his behalf.
Whether it was monitoring within Spain, infiltrating the Republicans and opposition parties, or investigating the movements and news of foreign nations, all of it was necessary.
To ensure the intelligence department's loyalty to him, Carlo decided that intelligence personnel had to be trained from childhood.
In an era when the average lifespan was not particularly long, there were still many orphans, and Carlo's target was precisely these orphans in Spain.
Orphans generally had miserable childhoods. Carlo only needed to provide them with the standard of living enjoyed by ordinary people to make them deeply grateful.
Once these orphans grew into qualified intelligence agents, their loyalty to Carlo would be greater than that of ordinary people.
The drawback, however, was that training them required a long time. The time cost would be at least ten years, and perhaps even fifteen or twenty.
Fortunately, Carlo was still young, so he had plenty of time to wait for these orphans to grow into outstanding intelligence agents.
However, considering that he currently needed some intelligence personnel as well, he could train a batch of more ordinary agents first to make do while waiting for the orphans to grow up.
