Chapter 1475: Female broker

   Chapter 1475

Although the remains of Saint-Geneviève are gone, her stone coffin should still be there. Napoleone intends to send the patron saint of Paris to Saint-Etienne church with solemn etiquette. It is located in the church of Saint-Etienne. On the opposite side of the shrine, it was the same as when Giorgioanna saw Saint Gennavieve standing at the entrance of the Pantheon in a dream. The premise is that the stone coffin of Saint-Genaviève must be found. Besides, Georgiana really doesn't know if Fouché will "grate" her, which adds to his workload.

This shouldn’t be difficult for the police in Paris. After all, the devil is more cute than the police in the eyes of ordinary citizens. The situation in the countryside is different. Farmers will gather together on market days to sell animals and food. After paying for the money, drink a glass of wine at the market, inquire about some news or meet a few friends, dance to the sound of bagpipes, and catch up with the recruits who are not acquainted with the mounted police to maintain order or chase the fugitives. This group of farmers will attack the mounted police. Fists and kicks, the fight caused by this is almost out of control, and the people in the city probably dare not even want to beat the mounted police.

  How could such a deterrent force the bakery to operate at a loss and avoid bankruptcy by borrowing?

The reputation of a woman is extremely important. The chaste Saint Gennaviève was worshipped as a saint, and Josephine was confused, so that no matter how many women Napoleon had, she could not be as old as a normal wife. loose the temper.

  If Georgiana really had any scheming, it could be said that she suspected that Josephine was responsible for the poisoning. Napoleon would probably look at the bread of the past to protect her, but in the end it would be nothing.

  What good does it do for Georgiana to force them to divorce? She is not so stupid to think that she can replace Josephine and become the Queen of France. Josephine today may be her future self, and she values ​​other things more than the little tricks of these conspiracies.

  Whether it was the Girondists of the French Revolution or the British government during the Great Irish Famine, they all adopted a laissez-faire approach, which obviously failed.

According to Turgo’s estimation, Europe’s grain transport capacity is 5 million quintals, and half of it is shipped to France in peacetime. Now with Godoy’s 2 million quintals of food, almost all of Europe is transporting food for France, plus The British private organizations, as well as the North American fleet, seem to all be engaged in food trading.

  Even if Napoleon exempted British steel from taxes, it would actually be unavoidable when capacity is limited. On the contrary, goods such as silk would be transported by air. Even if you know that luxury is not a good habit, people who make money want to be happy. Viscounts and barons in the English countryside also want to enter the upper class. Whether it is for an affair or seeking an official position, they all need decent clothes. On the ancient Silk Road, silk can be used as currency. Like precious metals such as gold and silver, it has the characteristics of small size and high value. She believes that the British will soon discover a trade deficit.

  The cabin is very stuffy, and the Porto wine shipped from Portugal to the UK will be fermented again in the middle. In order not to affect the taste, the wine merchant will add brandy in it, which causes the alcohol content of the Porto wine to be higher than that of the Bordeaux wine. The taxes on heavy beer and light beer in the UK are also different, even though they are both alcohol.

The French taste the taste, the British common people drink the alcohol, and they are obsessed with the pleasure brought by the drunk state. Forgetting all the troubles, Sharptal's hope for Bordeaux and Porto It is almost impossible to enjoy the same treatment.

  She wrote a letter to the Minister of the Interior, intending to send Matilda to him, and asked her to buy him a bottle of whiskey on the road.

  Even a capable person like Sharptal has areas that he is not good at. For example, he is far inferior to the speculator Gabriel Ufral in the matter of buying food.

  Even though Britain and France are separated by the English Channel, they don’t know each other very well. The non-rotating areas mentioned by Leoncourt are actually one of the few in France. Bordeaux is one of them. The local farmers use manure to provide soil fertility and then continue to cultivate.

Normandy is also in the west of France. According to Mardan de Chassilon’s reply, the locals accept rotations very quickly. This may be because they often deal with the British, but the local herdsmen are very good at improving the breeds of livestock. Conservative, very few people are willing to engage in this industry, mainly because they will be ridiculed and ridiculed by certain social classes in France.

There is a chalky plateau near Normandy. The Bray region is a clay soil zone in the plateau. The local aquatic plants are abundant, and the herdsmen’s life is very comfortable and comfortable, but the transportation is inconvenient. The farmers will laugh at the herdsmen for being lazy. It seems that it is a crime to hold celebrations and feasts. What a sin.

The butchers in Paris brought cattle from Normandy for only 6 weeks. These unweaned calves are bulls. They are not like cows. They can produce milk and make butter. But the butter produced in the Normandy Brei region will also Supply to Paris, not to the United Kingdom on the other side of the Strait.

  If people eat potatoes, the pigs will have no feed. Asking them to go to the forest to find acorns will not solve too many problems.

  Georgiana wanted to repair a track, bring in lawn mowers and balers, and bundle the surplus pastures in Bulai, and transport them to the inland together with butter to solve the problem of lack of pasture in the inland areas.

  The export of wine strives to adopt convenient and cheap transportation methods. Lowering the price of forage is also reducing the transportation cost.

  Wine is graceful and luxurious. It is a role that adds glory to the banquet. People respect it and write poetry for it. It seems that this is civilization.

  The prerequisite for human beings to maintain civilization and rationality is to have a full stomach and eat anything when they are hungry. There has been a cannibalistic famine in Central Europe. At that time, what civilization and etiquette were talked about?

  A major disaster and a famine are not the same thing. Even in a disaster year, if the country operates properly, the famine can be avoided.

  The famine may be caused by man-made. War levy is part of it. Farmers let the wheat grow in the field without harvesting it or selling it on the market, which will also cause food shortages.

A large amount of grain imports can’t solve France’s 50 million quintals of grain demand. It still has to rely on the French to save themselves. Even if it is widely planted, this changeable weather is unpredictable. In January, it suddenly became hot like April in the New Year. Who knows if the temperature suddenly drops when the wheat blooms, the bees do not move out, and the wheat blooms in vain.

  Poitvin’s friend, Jill Gobert, is not only involved in the field of “geniuses”, but also involved in the collection of food intelligence because of his recommendations for potato planting methods. The principle of grain is to sell only in public markets. As long as the transportation is convenient, farmers will transport grain to the market in accordance with regulations. But there are many factors restricting this seemingly simple matter. One is the road conditions, the second is the robbers, and the third is the tax card. After arriving at the market, the official designated staff will make a match between them. These brokers are mainly women.

The food in France generally will not be backlogged for more than two years. This is determined by the storage method. If wheat is stored for a long time, it will not only cause insects, but also, like Salem, ergot bacteria may form in the flour. People who eat this kind of bread may There will be weird behaviors, even fatal.

The tax collector allows them to pay part of the tax with grains, and these farmers use Chen Gu to pay, but the price is still calculated according to the price of Xin Gu. If it is calculated according to the "appraisal" of the market, it is not worth that much. money.

These tax collectors went to the commune to collect taxes, saving the farmers the cost of going to the public market, but also made the farmers less fun in "going to the market". It is no wonder that the nobles, rich people and priests of the old age forced them to sell their harvest. .

All the flour has the characteristics of being intolerant to transportation. The loss of flour is much greater than that of wheat. Therefore, the city must set up mills nearby. There are many mills in the suburbs of Paris. However, in winter, the rivers are frozen and only wind mills are left. There are only some small streams. Because it is not far from the source, the water is turbulent and can provide power to the water mill.

  In the summer of 1789, due to the drop in the water level, the flour production center of Etampe was temporarily suspended. For this reason, Louis XVI gave up the large fountain show scheduled to be held in Versailles for the Saint Louis Festival.

  Perhaps this was one of the reasons why the price of bread soared before the outbreak of the Great Revolution.

Before looking at the information compiled by Gobert, Georgian had never thought that even if the aqueduct was built, the water in the cold canals in Paris in winter would freeze, unless the water in the aqueduct was kept turbulent. Freezing can also provide power for flour processors in the wheat market.

  This is a question that engineers think about.

   So she wrote another letter to Bronniar, asking him to resolve the matter.

Although a bit exaggerated, Georgiana intends to use the bank to **** banknotes and gold, so that the mounted police will **** the grain from the warehouse to the market, and then from the market to the mill and the bake oven, according to the amount of cash that a person holds instead of the amount of cash in his hand Divide the bread evenly.

There was a famine in the Eastern Roman Empire. At that time, the government’s approach was to provide food to the “Romans.” In addition to the legal provisions that did not allow divorce, the Civil Code also stipulated that every French citizen should hold an ID card, if there is no identity. Foreign residents who have obtained the certificate, such as women who have married into France from other countries, should also have a marriage certificate and family certificate. They can use this certificate to buy a limited amount of bread.

  She needs to find a pilot city outside of Paris.

  She writes the plan with a typewriter that is not very easy to use. Maybe it will be buried in Napoleon’s piles of documents and forgotten, but she does like the feeling of “work”.

  And the timber mill, which she had hoped so much, is now in trouble.

The new British Royal Navy Secretary St. Vincent stopped shipbuilding and fired the shipyard workers. The shipyard’s timber suppliers suddenly ran out of stock. Almost all the wood that can be cut in the UK was chopped. The timber for shipbuilding must be imported. She doesn't plan to intervene until she knows what's right, because the French also own woodland and can use their own wood instead of importing from Russia.

  So Talleyrand’s opportunity to get inside information and redeem the bonds at a fair price is a rare opportunity. There is no follow-up trouble, and the profits are made again.

  She wanted to be beautiful and wanted to earn some private money from the lumber mill.

The monthly living expenses of 500,000 yuan are gone, and the living expenses of 50,000 yuan are still there. Under the generous shell, Bonaparte is a very budget-conscious petty bourgeoisie. When a girl catches it, she still needs to do the same as before she got married. Is it generous?

   "Bad thing." She cursed while typing.

  The sound of other girls’ fingertips is the sound of musical notes, but her fingertips are the sound of a crackling typewriter.

  Before the early summer was over, she was thinking about winter. How did the time pass so fast here? It's been a year in a blink of an eye. When did Severus come to see her?
