Chapter 1939 Egret Feather (2)

   Compared to the Rouen City Hall, which was converted into a monastery, the courts of Rouen are much more gorgeous, but who would want to go to the court to have a ball?

After getting out of the carriage, she walked off the carriage in the cold foggy wind. She looked up at the so-called Pharmacist College in front of her. It was located in a monastery, or it was a teaching property itself, and the nursery originally belonged to the monastery. It is a place to learn herbal medicine and medicine.

  The ladies of the Rouen Chamber of Commerce are already waiting for her here, and there are also a few men who are mostly dressed in robes, and she pays attention especially to those dressed as priests.

The Archbishop of Rouen is the "poor" second-ruling Cambaseres’ brother Etienne-Hubert Cambaseres. He is not currently a cardinal. He was in the Rouen Cathedral yesterday before the military parade. Responsible for presiding mass.

  The first ruler was furious. According to the custom, after receiving the sacrament, the king would kiss the golden plate for the sacrament, but Archbishop Cambaseres refused to kiss him, and he was worried about it all morning.

The highest-ranking member of the entourage was the Minister of the Interior, Sharptal. After chatting with the archbishop, he figured out the reason. That was only part of the ceremony. Later, Sharptal explained to him that he didn't care so much, and then opened again. It took 6 hours of meeting.

  Restoring the church and maintaining order in the west are Napoleon’s main achievements. After being arrested, many of the refugees will be locked up in the poverty-stricken homes to wait for their deaths.

  Wandering outside will basically be sick. The herbs in the nursery are used for them, but now there are "nobles" coming, and they are all cleared to other places, leaving only some women and children to fill the front.

  The protagonist of the charity party has never been those who need help. Everyone wants a good reputation and at the same time wants to have fun. Then you will know what the real face of that occasion is.

  The street children and women who have been cleaned up are like setting boards standing far away, and the ones who greet Georgiana are still stubborn women.

  She put on a polite and thoughtful smile to greet those women. Not all of these female family members are boss wives, but there are also female bosses. Rouen, like Lyon, implements a foreign trade industry, which means that some of the raw materials will be sent to the countryside for textile processing.

  The soil situation in Brittany is just like that. This can be used to subsidize households, which is different from the centralized large-scale production in the UK.

  An industry often has related supporting industries, just like a car factory has many suppliers, they not only provide raw materials, but also provide spare parts needed for production equipment. There is also a Michelin company in Nantes, but unlike the later Michelin company that sells tires, it provides parts for those textile machines. The slave trade also affected cities such as Rouen and Nantes. These companies also obtained loan funds through the slave trade and were formed through shares.

  There are also large shareholders and small shareholders in the stock company. Small shareholders are often bullied. Therefore, the stock company is currently illegal. After all, the Duke of Orleans has changed its name to Philip Equality.

  If you want a bank loan, you must have collateral. If Georgiana is like those female bosses, she can only find a loan if she wants to get money, instead of reaching out to her husband or boyfriend.

   Scarlett is not polite to Brad for asking for money, because she didn't treat Brad as an outsider. Georgiana’s starting point is much higher than that of most people. Most companies will go through asset restructuring, mortgage the Gebu factory, and then use the loan to open a perfume shop. She believes that Farrong will not save any savings. No, he developed the technology, and she tried to find a market, which was much easier than those shops that got up from the bottom.

Napoleon described Britain’s free trade as a “ladder type”. At the beginning of the 18th century, Britain’s textile industry tariff was 100%. In order to prevent the impact of India’s cheap fabric imports, their products had an absolute advantage after Britain’s efficiency was upgraded. Only later did the barriers be removed and "free competition" began.

  If Georgeanna talks to Bonaparte and wants him to lower France’s tariff barriers, she will soon “fall out of favor”. However, if slavery is abolished, these small companies like Michelin will not be able to use the slave trade to obtain loans. It is also very risky to use their real estate as collateral. If you lose money, where will your family live?

If you have to be responsible for the food, clothing, housing and transportation yourself, the monthly salary of 12 francs is definitely not enough, and the rent is more than that, but it is much better than a dead man with two children, unable to find a formal job, and can only work as a temporary worker. .

  She can understand that others are not necessarily. Desires are like running horses. It will be hard to strangle them all the time. It is not convenient for her to come out on this occasion. It doesn't matter if the maids go out shopping. Rouen is mainly cotton cloth, and the court ladies wear silk.

  Georgiana was surrounded and walked into the nearby monastery. After entering the room, it was indeed much warmer. The windows in the room were all stained glass.

  The outdoor courtyard now has few flowers and plants. There are a lot of potted plants arranged indoors, which may have been moved out of the greenhouse, including plants and flowers from Southeast Asia.

  Siam usually refers to Thailand. Siam is Sanskrit. When talking about Siambu, the first thing she thinks of is the monks wearing bright robes in Thai temples and the floating market full of flowers.

  Of course it is a dream. She has been to the real vegetable market. It is dirty and messy, and it smells like fish everywhere. However, Siam cloth is indeed brightly colored, and it is very nice to use them to decorate the walls in winter.

  Not long after they came, they were entertained to drink tea. They drank Indian almond tea. The almonds are fried in butter and then boiled in milk, and then used to brew tea. This makes the surface of the milk tea float with a layer of grease. Drinking a cup of such steaming tea in winter couldn't be more comfortable.

  Matilda carried the box with her tea set, and she poured the milk tea into Severe’s porcelain.

Rouen is also a producer of porcelain, but the porcelain produced here is mainly used for civilian use, and the level of exquisiteness is far less than that of Sevres. Besides, Matilda is a noble lady. Her every move is in line with noble etiquette, and many enthusiastic factory owners and wives use it. Looking at Matilda with envy.

  Of course, there are some people who disdain Georgianna's "style", they have not seen how cumbersome court etiquette and restraining people, like Georgianna is already very barbaric.

  After the milk tea was brewed, she took a sip and found that the tea did not seem to be traditional black tea.

  "This is oolong tea." A wife of a factory owner said, "What do you think of the lady?"

  Georgina smiled, without uttering compliments.

  She can remember how much trouble Marie Antoinette caused herself with a casual compliment.

  The female family member may feel that she is left out, and looks a little embarrassed.

  "I heard the missionaries say that the oriental people use tea instead of wine, not only to protect health and prevent diseases, but also to avoid the harm of drinking." At this time, a priest said, "Apart from almonds, what else can be added to tea?"

   "Then we have to see what's here." Georgiana said immediately.

   "Please, please." The priest said as he stood up.

   "Wait a minute." Georgiana said, drank all the milk tea left in the cup, "Who is the supplier of this oolong tea?"

   "I...I." A woman stammered.

  Georgina pointed to Matilda, "You go with her and soak a little more. We will use it later for the experiment."

   "Come with me, madam." Matilda said to the woman softly, and then the two left together.

  Georgiana and the priest came together.

  "You are the Archbishop of Campaceres?" Georgiana asked.

"Yes, ma'am." The priest who looked not very similar to the second governor said with a smile, "I heard yesterday that the senior official Mr. Bernio and the first governor had a lot of quarrels over tariffs. He told you. NS?"

   "I don't know what you are talking about." Georgiana said stupidly.

  The Archbishop laughed, with a calm and breezy appearance, and was polite and thoughtful to ask Georgian to go ahead.
