Fox of France

v1 Chapter 422: , Who are you looking for

Although the boss made an appearance, but in general, Napoleon's prestige has increased a little. In the past, everyone felt that Napoleon was at best a science lover. But after such an uproar, public opinion generally believes that Napoleon is an out-and-out scientist, even though he sometimes makes mistakes. What do ordinary people think? In many cases, ordinary people do not have their own opinions, and what public opinion thinks they are.

Of course, because of this, Napoleon's approval rating has also risen further. This is also natural, you see, His Majesty Napoleon understands military, law, politics, economics, and science. He understands everything. He is really a majesty who understands everything. He is simply a philosopher king.

After that it was a peaceful and good time. In the period after this, Joseph wanted to continue to trouble Napoleon and give Napoleon more paper review tasks. But this time Napoleon adopted Lucien's suggestion and used a weak, embarrassing approach to fight back. He went to his mother and said that he was already busy, and Joseph threw so many things to him that he had no time to go out with Miss Laura.

Letizia has always been indifferent to matters between her sons. Because she thought these things were too complicated, she couldn't figure it out. But this time, Letizia decided to take care of the boss. After all, this is related to holding grandson.

So Joseph was successfully repelled. Napoleon's days became better immediately, except for Letizia's urging him to get married from time to time. But Napoleon always wanted to delay as much as possible, because he found that as long as dating as an excuse, many things can be pushed to Joseph and Lucien.

Of course, as a resistance, Joseph and Lucien naturally joined the forced marriage party and urged Napoleon to get married.

The good times are always short. In the end, Napoleon had to surrender to the three mountains, and then the Roman Empire had an extra queen.

Just as Napoleon predicted, once he got married, the mother immediately returned to a retired state, and then many things couldn't get out.

So just after the honeymoon, Napoleon got busy again.

For example, today, at the family meeting, Joseph threw another report to Napoleon.

This report is about the economic situation in France. Over the years, the French stock market has been in a bull market. To be precise, since Napoleon came to power, the French stock market has been steadily rising. Although there have been some small twists and turns, in general, the situation in the stock market is always good. Therefore, the prices of various French stocks have been rising steadily, and the stock prices have now reached a fairly high position.

At that time, on the other side, the fundamentals of the economy, the situation was not as good as it used to be. Take railways as an example. The emergence of railways has indeed greatly increased productivity, but it is also because railways make money, so in France and the European continent, railway investment has increased wildly, and the market is also very popular for railways.

One result of this pursuit is that more and more railways are built. At the beginning, railways were built only where needed, and later it became the repeated construction of railways where needed. Later, it became a place where it was possible to build railways, clamoring for railway construction. For example, from Paris to "New Rome", there are three railways just tens of kilometers away. From Paris to Marseille, there are actually two railways, and even a third railway is under construction.

However, whether it is France or other European countries, there is no need for so many railways, and there is no need for so many things to be transported by rail. As a result, railway capacity began to appear severely surplus.

Because of the excess railway capacity. So there are not many cars running on most railways. On average, the railways on the entire European continent have at most utilized a little more than 20% of their capacity. In France, this ratio is even lower, or even less than 10%.

Most of the railway companies' plans are based on the ability to play more than 50% of the capacity, so under today's circumstances, these companies simply have no room for profit. They are still alive, basically relying on bank loans and telling stories on the stock market.

"Joseph, what are you doing to show me this?" Napoleon asked.

On the sofa opposite his desk, Joseph lifted his legs and said: "Napoleon, your reputation has risen a bit recently, and it just happens to come in handy? Well, the wheat has matured, and it's time to harvest. "

Napoleon knew what Joseph meant. In fact, the reason why the railroad overheated was due to Joseph. Relying on the overheated railway construction, Lorraine Steel sold a large amount of steel products and made no idea how much money. As for the banking system of the military-industrial complex, I don’t know how much money has also been made by this railway craze.

The railway enthusiasm has also brought a lot of foreign capital investment. Of course, these investments are for making quick money. Therefore, they pay more attention to the stock price on the stock market rather than the actual business situation. So the Bank of Rome (including the Bank of Beauvais, a consortium of banks belonging to the military-industrial complex) took this opportunity to slowly transfer many of the **** railway claims to those foreign banks. In the process, those foreign banks also seem to have made a lot of money.

"You mean to burst this bubble so that you can harvest it?" Napoleon said, "This is very hateful. What are you going to do?"

"Let the French railway company lower the freight rate first." Joseph said.

The French railway company is naturally the son of the military-industrial complex. It has the best and most profitable railway in France. Of course, in the recent period of time, especially after the railway construction boom has developed to an over-heated stage, the French railway company has been losing money. But this is not a problem, because while the French railway is losing money, its parent companies Lorraine Steel and Bank of Rome do not know how much money it has made. So in general, the profit is still more, so the operation of the French railway company is naturally no problem at all.

But other railway companies are not the same, especially those railway companies that rely on foreign funds to make money. If they do not cheat, almost all their statements will not be read.

In the past year, these companies have not thought about lowering prices in order to compete. But they were quickly warned, because once a railway company cuts its prices, it is tantamount to acknowledging that they are difficult to make profits, and then immediately cause changes in the stock market, and then-these companies now rely on bank loans and The storytelling of the stock market is alive.

But the French railway company is not worried about this. If they reduce the price, the entire railway hot bubble will burst. Then you can harvest the insolvent railways.

Napoleon shook his head and said, "I am against this. This is too simple and rude. It will also make people think that we are the culprit. Although we are indeed the culprit, we cannot let people know that we are the culprit. We must. In another way, a scapegoat must be found."

"What scapegoat do you want to find? This scapegoat must have a certain weight, at least a certain weight in this market. Only in this way can his actions be enough to burst the bubble. And a thing that is too small can't hide one. Larger things are like elephants that cannot hide behind mice." Joseph said.

"No, my dear brother, an elephant cannot hide behind a mouse, but an elephant can hide behind an eyelid. As long as the eyelid is closed, everything in the world is blocked. The media is the eyelid of the world, this eyelid Under our control." Lucien said, "We can push the matter to the British or some other person."

"Pushing to the British will cause a lot of unnecessary trouble at least for now," Napoleon said.

"Why don't you push it to the Americans?" Lucien said again.

"It's not necessary. Now there is no need to turn faces with the Americans." Napoleon again rejected Lucien's proposal.

"Then push it to the Jews~lightnovelpub.net~ Joseph said, "First, the Jews have no country. Push it to them, there is no diplomatic trouble. Second, some Jews are very rich, and their power is enough to pierce the bubble and benefit in the process. So, just find a Jewish banker and let him do this, isn't it enough? "

"You mean Rothschild? Would they be willing?" Lucien said.

"Is there something you want or not? We have decided that the Jews will be the culprit, can he still disagree?" Napoleon said, "Besides, since ancient times, do you still need his consent to pin the scapegoat to someone's head You are so young and naive..."

Lucien was silent, but Joseph said: "Napoleon, don't be so simple and rude, be tempting, don't always be bullying. By bursting this bubble, Rothschild can get a certain benefit, and can Make a little money. As for the black pot, it is all the Jews, not his family, and even, we can protect them. By the way, let’s show our insistence on the Civil Code. So, you Look, isn’t this something that can be clearly talked about? Well, Rothschild also has one or two railways in his hands. He can lower the prices of these railways first, and then our French railway will follow up immediately, and then the matter will not become Huh? And let him know in advance that the railroad stock is about to collapse, the benefits in it are still enough to impress him. As for the other Jews, what's the matter with Rothschild?"
