Chapter 1994 The Good Manager (Part 2)

  Honfleur is not far from Le Havre and can be reached by a small boat.

   Unlike Le Havre, which is full of Italian style on the other side, Honfleur has many wooden buildings, which are somewhat similar to Rouen. It seems that this is the style of Normandy.

  The small town is very quiet, and there are seagulls flying.

  There was a red house next to the port. It was a minister sent by Louis XIV to live in. Ludrell pointed it out to Giorgioanna.

This place is also the starting place for the discoverers of Quebec. On September 22, the eighth year of the Republic, Bonaparte presided over a ceremony to commemorate Desai and Kleber in Victory Square. The ceremony was solemn and the soldiers were dressed in uniforms. The square became a sea of ​​flags.

But the scene was magnificent but also very boring. Gala wrote a 107-page speech. He spent three hours reading it from start to finish to promote those generals who sacrificed, and a general who is still alive and well. .

  He was about to fall asleep. Hearing Gala chanting his name and standing alongside the dead, he immediately cast a murderous look.

   "Suck!" Bonaparte, who returned to the Tuileries after the meeting, said to the people around him.

The lecture at Les Invalides on the second day became the host of Lucien himself. They moved the body of Louis XIV’s Grand Marshal Tirena from the Basilica of Saint Denis, first buried in the Botanical Garden, and later by Included in the French Heritage Museum.

Lucien was much shorter in the ceremony. He announced the birth of a new great century, and congratulated today’s heroes on extending a respectful hand to yesterday’s heroes, letting France once again become one with history and celebrate. This France reformed the system, but still continues its great journey.

   "This is the theme of tonight." Ludrel said, "You don't need a grand banquet, but it must be grand enough. Don't you want to see the fireworks?"

   "Yes." She said dryly.

   "Tonight's fireworks will be displayed until tomorrow morning, and the display will be on Elephant Trunk Hill Beach." Ludrel said, "It's not far from here. Would you like to see it?"

   "Let's put it on the next morning?" Georgiana couldn't believe it and said, "How many fireworks do you need?"

  Ledrell smiled, “It’s more than the day when Queen Mary was greeted in Paris. Because of fear of accidents, the setting point was set on the beach away from the crowd.”

  Georgiana took a look at the sky. It can't be regarded as a sunny day, nor can it be said to be completely cloudy. It is estimated that it will not rain.

"The ceremony to celebrate the return of the United States to the United States is scheduled for 10 days after the funeral of the General Marshal. This event is different from the previous ceremonies. Joseph originally planned to hold it in Mondfontaine. There will be banquets, music, and theater. He also invited De Preo to be the emcee of fireworks. He is a famous dancer and singer. At first, people said that no one can compare with De Preo in organizing banquets. When setting up the table, people forgot to bring it. Knives, no decorations on the table, he put the small animal specimens in the attic, the red wine smelled of vinegar, and half of the wine glasses were drunk by the pyrotechnics who set up the stage and set off the fireworks. Fortunately, it rained heavily. It stopped at midnight, when the pyrotechnics were almost awake and the performance finally began, but that also meant that the guests had to line up in the mud, waiting for the serious guards to check the cards in their hands as invitations."

   "It sounds terrible." Georgiana couldn't help but say.

   "May I ask, what do the flowers attached to the invitation you sent us mean?" Ledrell asked.

  "I asked the manager of the hotel, there are gambling equipment left by the casino in the basement..."

  Ledrell stopped.

  "As long as it's not gambling, it's okay to bet on two small bets." Georgiana explained, "He used to play cards with people often."

  Ledrell can't laugh or cry.

   "There will be waiters at the door. They will use other flowers on your chest. If the level is not enough, they will not be able to play with you at the poker table." Georgiana said.

   "You are almost like Louis XIV's Palace of Versailles." Ledrell said.

"I know, but there is always some entertainment at the banquet." Georgiana said dryly. Hogwarts held a Christmas ball, and the Ministry of Magic invited the weird sisters to join the party. Only Harry and Ron and their poor dance partner sat at the banquet. Sitting at the table not to dance, this is what the children told her later.

  Of course there is the old bat. He stood there like a black hole, sucking all the light away.

   "Someone is going to play cards, what about people who are not interested in playing cards?" Ledrell asked.

   "Aren't there fireworks to watch."

   "I heard that you invited Robert Peel Jr."

  The point is here.

  Georgina smirked, "How were the arrangements for the reconciliation party with the Americans at that time?"

"They should take stomach pain medicine before they come. Even if there are actresses sitting next to them, they look serious." Ledrell sighed and said, "There are bands that are not very skilled, playing revolutionary songs that they don't like. "

   "Sounds terrible." Georgiana said.

   "No, it's not the worst." Ludrell shook his head. "When De Preo put the actors on stage, they refused to be called like servants. He had to sing a song by himself."

  Georgina was struck by lightning.

   "You made a simple welcome party so grand." Ludrel said, "Who is the master of ceremonies tonight?"

   "I didn't think about it!" Georgiana said honestly.

  Ledrell laughed, as if schadenly.

   "Can you help me with this?" Georgiana said immediately.

   "No one thinks I am a good emcee. Of course there is also Dillock. I heard that you gave him the nickname ‘British’."

   "How did you know?" Georgiana said in surprise.

   "You called him that unconsciously several times, I dare say that's what you feel in your heart, right?"

  Georgiana was speechless.

  "I have a personal choice, Mr. Morro de Saint-Méry, he is also an excellent banquet organizer." Ledrell said.

   "I thought this was someone else's place." Georgiana said.

   "It was what you thought last time, I thought, finally there was a misunderstanding." Ledrell said.

   "Okay." Georgiana turned her head and glanced at the members of the guard behind her, and called one of them to send a message to Mr. St. Meri.

   "There is also the empty house just now, don't you think it is a pity that it has been empty." Ledrell said.

  Georgiana looked back at the red house where the official Louis XIV had lived.

   "I think you shouldn't tell me this kind of thing." Georgiana said.

   "So what about Father Dupuy?" Ledrell said.

   "What position is he?" Georgiana asked.

"The president of the University of Rouen, and he may also be the mayor of Rouen." Ledrell said, "We can all see that this tour does not really encourage the development of local industry, but you gave us a new idea. "

   "I am very worried that this will cause enclosure movements or other social conflicts." Georgiana said.

   "Mardan de Chasilon is here, too, and he has been with Sharptal to report about Normandy." Ledrell said, "What do you think of him?"

  Georgina did not speak.

   "He is too arrogant." Georgiana said after a moment, "though he is a sympathetic person."

  “Sharptal believes that the establishment of artificial pastures and perfect land rotation are the foundation of agriculture, and we can now try it out in Brittany.”

   "It sounds like you have already decided." Georgiana said.

"The UK has succeeded in expanding the cultivation of artificial pastures. This is an example worthy of emulation, but they are to obtain lamb and wool, we need milk and dairy products." Ledrell said, "You have seen the new civil code. On the terms?"

   "You can tell me directly." Georgiana said provocatively.

"Partners in partnership leases of livestock will equally share the benefits and losses. The income generated by livestock's **, livestock manure and animal power belongs to the lessee. The lessor only enjoys half of the rights for the benefits of wool and breeding. The contrary agreement All are invalid, but the lessor is the land owner, and the herd lessee is the land lessee or the fruit-sharing farmer. This is not the case. The lessee should manage the person with goodness and pay attention to the preservation of the leased herd. This is not just to promote agriculture. , And to promote the rule of law, it is easier to raise dairy cows.” Ledrell said, “As for the bovine tuberculosis that you worry about, let the vets worry about it.”

  Georgiana was a little surprised.

   "Brittany will become a very beautiful place." Ledrell looked around and said, "It's more beautiful than it is now."

  Georgiana wanted to say that the vineyard can also be beautiful, but she didn't say it.

  Don't disturb everyone's mood.

  So she and Ludrell continued walking along the medieval stone streets.
