Chapter 1430 Trojan Horse Scheme

  After the maids came back from the holiday, many things changed.

  For example, the former maid Sophie has left, and the new maid, Earl Billis, has taken over her position, but she is not responsible for the work of “serving”, she is just acting as Georgian’s secretary and collecting novels.

  So Georgiana removed the bed in the lounge and placed a table and a row of cabinets for Mrs. Billis. Mrs. Billis liked the curtains full of Indian style very much.

The first guest here was Coqueber de Mumble. He will be sent to London as a representative of the French business community after the Amiens peace treaty is signed. He will also go with Napoleon’s classmate Colonel Lorisdon. , They hope to meet with representatives of the British business community in France.

Georgiana planned to borrow the Sèvres ceramic factory, where the repairs were similar to the imperial palace, and then she asked Mrs. Billis to write an invitation letter, and also asked her to go to the gardener in Malmaison. She hoped that he could regularly use the Violet Queen. Roses are sent, and some dark purple ribbons are also ordered.

Mrs. Billis was very docile and agreed to her request. She did not use a typewriter, but handwritten. Nobles like her from the old age often wrote gorgeous swashes, plus roses and purple. The ribbon, an ordinary but gorgeous letter is ready.

  Under Albus’s “rule”, Georgianna can only restrain and be frugal. Napoleon taught her that if the rich do not spend money, then other workers in industries such as furniture, ceramics, high-end fabrics, perfumes, construction, etc. will not have work.

  Even a gardener who cultivates roses will face unemployment. No one buys the flowers he grows. Is he hobby to cultivate these roses?

  Tulip bubbles are also caused by a small number of people, but even if there are no tulips, there are other things that can cause bubbles, such as blue cloth and grain.

  Georgiana remembers William Pitt Jr. and his allies repeatedly reminding her that they have given up military protection against Portugal. The best way to reduce costs is to reduce intermediate suppliers. The Port of Lisbon in Portugal can still provide British ships for docking.

  Currency is usually made of metal, and iron is also a kind of metal. The Wealth of Nations talks about a village in Scotland still using iron nails as currency.

She did not know the smelting industry in France, but the British steel company wanted to do business in France, and only had to transport goods from Britain to France or build a steel plant in France. Before the canal in Bruges was cleared out, British merchant ships needed Find another place to stop.

  The best way is of course to persuade Napoleon to open the French port. This is of course “feasible”. After all, land transportation is still cheaper than canal transportation, especially for such heavy goods.

  So Georgian asked Mrs. Billis to write an invitation letter to Gaston Martin, asking him to come to the party.

In addition, the Mare brothers from the General Bureau of Grain were also coming. She thought about who to invite. Mrs. Billis wrote down the names of those people. Later, she remembered that the director of Sèvres did not seem to be able to hold a reception. Mrs. Billis also said that she knew how to deal with it. She had participated in many court receptions before.

Georgiana believed that many people wanted to attend this reception. Those who did not attend would definitely feel unfair. Then she remembered the celebrities that Bernadotte had dealt with who were willing to buy Sèvres porcelain at a high price. She let Billy Mrs. Si asked for the list.

The reception was not held immediately or immediately, because Mrs. Billis started writing letters at the desk in no hurry. At this time, Giorgioanna was lost in thought. She felt that she had to remind Napolioni that international futures are not a country that France can control. Yes, it's better for him to avoid such things as securities, no matter how much he is pleased with the property owners now.

Lanzhi repaired a lot of granaries, and these granaries were all waiting to be filled. This would have a certain impact on the futures market, but it could not have a decisive influence. It was a very complicated game. He was a military genius, but he might not be equally talented in this aspect For example, he lacks talent in learning English.

  Let a person who does not succumb to life "accept his fate". God knows how difficult it is, but the fate of speculation is obvious. The wife Lu Xi'an married is a widow of a speculator.

  The battleships of the French Navy are worse than those of the British Navy, but the French Navy is not as good as the British Navy. The human problem is more serious than the equipment.

  Many things are obtained for free, and people don’t know how to be grateful. Napoleon felt that if the canal was built and the water supply system was repaired, the citizens would have free and clean water to drink. This is actually harmful.

There will definitely be people wasting water. People who have never been to the desert or the sea don’t know what it feels like to be short of water. She can calculate the unit price very cheaply, but she has to limit the amount of water. The total price will go up if you want to save money. , Use water within your capacity.

  She needs to design a water meter. If everyone has the habit of saving water consciously, they can actually not need this thing. The question is, is this possible?

  Georgiana was about to write a letter on her own with a typewriter, but she suddenly remembered that she didn’t know who to write to, except for Mr. Bronniard, the director of Sèvres.

  She simply asked Michelle to invite him. Michelle came back not long after he went out. Mr. Bronnier sent him an equestrian statue of Napoleon. Now they are all in Mars Hall.

  Georgiana’s first thought was the oil painting that David drew for him riding a white horse and crossing the Alps. He may not have realized that David had made a "joke" with him.

   "Let's go." Georgiana said to Michel, and then Mrs. Billis said, "If you have any needs, you can talk to Matilda and Phyllis."

   "Thank you for your concern." Mrs. Billis smiled politely, she didn't look like the kind of rebellious kingly party.

  If you plan to know the situation in the palace in detail, then arrange more eyeliners.

  Matilda’s habit of inquiring made her know a lot of people in the court. The etiquette she learned in the noble school came in handy again, and she looked like a noble lady again.

  Phyllis hated and envied it, and took the time to learn etiquette, but Georgian is still the same as before. Will she learn the **** etiquette? no way!

  When Giorgioanna came to the exhibition hall where the artworks are displayed in the Mars Hall, Napoleon was breaking the leg of the ceramic horse-riding sculpture, and the people around him unconsciously opened their eyes.

She heard Josephine say that if Napoleon didn’t like a certain piece of clothing she was wearing, he would directly stain it with anything he could see, such as ink and coffee, forcing her to change that outfit. .

   was more violent towards Georgiana, he used a sword to scratch her menswear.

  Napoleon’s attitude toward things he didn’t like was this—destroy.

  "General, if the artist who made this sculpture sees his work being treated in this way, he will definitely die of sadness." Brognar said.

   "It can be repaired with a little mud." Napoleon said coldly.

"According to me, it's best to smash it." Georgiana said at the door. Everyone in the exhibition hall looked at her. "Compared to ceramic horses, I prefer Trojan horses and horses designed by Leonardo Da Vinci. ."

   "They are all destroyed." Napoleon said with some joy.

   "Are you going to reproduce them?" Georgiana said frivolously.

   "It's hard to tell, what do you think?" Napoleon asked the surrounding officials.

  No one answered this question.

  "The blood-soaked land will become more fertile, and more wheat ears will be produced in the coming year." Georgianna looked at this sculpture with him riding a white horse across the Alps.

  When she finished speaking, she knocked the sculpture over with one foot. It fell into several knots on the ground, making a deafening muffled noise.

  Napoleon laughed, and said to Bronniar, "You heard what she said."

   “How about a sculpture at the entrance of an industrial exhibition, just a moving horse sculpture?” Giorgioanna added.

   "Agree, this is an incomparable idea." An official immediately applauded.

"agreed, agreed……"

   Then came the applause and applause one after another.

  Sharptar did not speak, he watched everything, and seemed a little disagreeable.

   "Come with me, Mr. Factory Manager, I need you for something."

  "Aren't you here to find me?" Napolioni said in surprise.

  She twisted his ancient Greek nose and left with a smile, followed by a shocked Bronniar behind her.

  Waiting to walk to a place where no one was there, Georgiana turned her head and asked, "You, like those people, want to enter the Senate?"

  Broniar is still dazed, as if he has not accepted a certain fact.

  "If you really have this idea, then you should go to the church to receive the sacrament first, instead of making the sculpture just now."

   "Wh...what?" Bronniar said bitterly.

   "Come and have a cup of tea with me." Georgiana patted him on the back and said very kindly, "Or do you want coffee?"

  Michelle looked back at the hall just now, and then trot to follow.
