Chapter 1475 Female Broker

Although the remains of St. Geneviève are gone, her stone coffin should still be there. Napoleoni planned to use grand etiquette to send the patron saint of Paris to the Saint-Etienne Church, which is located in the Saint-Etienne Church.

On the opposite side of the temple, it is the same as in Georgiana's dream when she saw Saint Geneviève standing at the door of the Pantheon. The prerequisite is that Saint Geneviève's stone coffin must be found. Besides, Georgiana really didn't know that Fouchet would

He won't be "thankful" to her and will increase his workload.

This should not be a difficult problem for the police in Paris. After all, in the eyes of ordinary citizens, devils are cuter than policemen. The situation in the countryside is different. Farmers will gather together on market days to sell livestock and food and get a lot of money.

After getting 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 new Mounted Police who come to maintain order or hunt down fugitives. These farmers will attack the Mounted Police.

The resulting fight was almost out of control, with fists, kicks, and severe beatings. People in the city probably wouldn't even dare to think of beating up a mounted policeman.

How could such a deterrent encourage a bakery to operate at a loss and rely on debt to avoid bankruptcy?

A woman's reputation is extremely important. The chaste Saint Geneviève was worshiped as a saint, but Josephine was confused. As a result, no matter how many women Napoleon had, she could not be as big as an ordinary wife.

loose the temper.

If Georgiana really had any ulterior motive, she could have said that she suspected that Josephine was responsible for the poisoning. Napoleon would probably let his former love protect her and let it go.

What good will it do to Georgiana to force them to divorce? She is not stupid enough to think that she can replace Josephine and become the Queen of France. Today's Josephine may be her future self, and compared to these small tricks,

, she values ​​other things more.

Both the Girondins of the French Revolution and the British government during the Great Famine in Ireland adopted a laissez-faire approach, which was obviously a failure.

According to Turgot's estimate, Europe's grain transport capacity is 5 million quintals, half of which is shipped to France in peacetime. Now, plus Godoy's 2 million quintals of grain, almost the entire Europe is shipping grain to France, plus

It seems that everyone in the British private sector, as well as the North American fleet, is engaged in grain trading.

Even if Napoleon exempted British steel from taxes, he would not be able to exempt much given the limited shipping capacity. On the contrary, goods as light as silk would be transported by empty ships. Even if they know that luxury is not a good habit, everyone who makes money wants to be happy.

Now, the viscounts and barons in the British countryside also want to join the upper class. Whether it is for an affair or to seek official positions, they all need decent clothes. On the ancient Silk Road, silk could be used as currency, and it was used together with precious metals such as gold and silver.

It also has the characteristics of small size and high value. She believes that the British will soon discover the trade deficit.

The cabin is very stuffy, and the port wine shipped from Portugal to the UK will be fermented again in the middle. In order not to affect the taste, wine merchants will add brandy to it, which results in the alcohol content of port wine being higher than that of Bordeaux wine. In the UK, strong beer and light beer

The taxes collected are also different, even though they are both wine.

The French appreciate wine with their sense of taste, while British civilians drink with alcohol. They are obsessed with the pleasure brought by the drunken state, leaving all worries behind. Chaptard’s hope is that Bordeaux and Port wine

It is almost impossible to enjoy the same treatment.

She wrote a letter to the Minister of the Interior, intending to ask Matilda to deliver it to him, and also asked her to buy a bottle of whiskey for him on the way.

Even a capable person like Chaptard has areas in which he is not good at. For example, in purchasing grain, he is far inferior to Gabriel Uflar, a speculator.

Although Britain and France are only separated by the English Channel, they don't know each other very well. The areas that Leoncourt mentioned that do not use rotational farming are actually a handful in France, and the Bordeaux region is one of them. Local farmers use manure to make crops.

The soil provides fertility and must be cultivated continuously.

Normandy is also in the west of France. According to Martin de Chasillon's reply, the local people accepted shifting cultivation very quickly. This may be because they often interact with the British, but local shepherds are very reluctant to improve livestock breeds.

There are very few people who are conservative and willing to engage in this industry, mainly because they will be ridiculed and ridiculed by certain social classes in France.

There is a chalk plateau near Normandy. The Bray area is a clay soil zone in the plateau. The local water and grass are abundant, and the life of the herdsmen is very comfortable. However, transportation is inconvenient. The farmers will ridicule the herdsmen for being lazy and eating. It seems that it is wrong to hold celebrations and feasts.

What a sin.

The cattle brought by butchers in Paris from Normandy only have a growth period of 6 weeks. These unweaned calves are bulls. Unlike cows, they can produce milk and make butter. The butter produced in the Bray region of Normandy can also

Supplied to Paris, rather than exported to Britain across the Channel.

If people eat potatoes, then the pigs will have no feed, and letting them go to the forest to find acorns won't solve much of the problem.

Georgiana wanted to build a track, transport lawn mowers and balers in, bale the excess forage in the Bray area, and transport it with butter to the inland to solve the problem of lack of forage in the inland.

The export of wine strives to use convenient and cheap transportation methods. Lowering the price of forage also reduces transportation costs.

Wine is elegant and luxurious, adding luster to the banquet. People respect it and write poems for it, as if this is civilization.

The prerequisite for human beings to maintain civilization and rationality is to have a full stomach. If you are hungry, you will eat anything. There was a cannibal famine in Central Europe. What kind of civilization and etiquette were discussed at that time?

Catastrophes and famines are not the same thing. Even in disaster years, if the country operates properly, famine can be avoided.

The famine may be caused by humans, as part of war conscription. Farmers allow wheat to mature in the fields but do not harvest it or sell it on the market, which will also cause food shortages.

A large amount of grain imports cannot solve France's 50 million quintal grain demand. The French still have to save themselves. Even if sowing is widely done, the changeable weather is unpredictable. In January, it was suddenly as hot as April in the New Year.

Who knows if the temperature will suddenly drop when the wheat is blooming? If the bees don't come out and move around, it will be in vain for the wheat to bloom.

Poitevin's good friend Gilles Gobert was not only involved in the field of "geniuses", but also involved in the collection of grain intelligence because he recommended potato cultivation methods. The principle of grain is to only sell it in public markets, as long as transportation is convenient.

Farmers will transport grain to the market in accordance with regulations. However, there are many factors that restrict this seemingly simple matter. One is road conditions, the other is robbers, and the third is tax cards. After arriving at the market, officially designated staff will match them.

The agents are mainly female.

Generally, food in France will not be stored for more than two years. This is determined by the way it is stored. Wheat stored for too long will not only develop insects, but also, like Salem, ergot fungus may form in the flour. People who eat this kind of bread may

Weird behavior may occur and may even be fatal.

The tax collector allowed them to pay part of the tax with grain, so these farmers paid with old grain. However, the price was still calculated based on the price of new grain. If it was calculated based on the "sample valuation" in the market, it would not be worth that much at all.

money.

These tax collectors went to the communes to collect taxes, which saved the farmers the expense of going to the public market, but also deprived the farmers of the fun of "going to the market". It is no wonder that the nobles, rich and priests in the old era forced them to sell their harvests.

.

All flours are not resistant to transportation. The loss of flour is much greater than that of wheat. Therefore, cities must set up mills nearby. There are many mills in the suburbs of Paris. However, in winter, the rivers freeze, leaving only the wind mills turning and only some small streams.

Because it is not far from the source, the water flow is fast and can also provide power for the water mill.

In the summer of 1789, due to falling water levels, the flour production center of Etampe was temporarily suspended. For this reason, Louis XVI gave up the large fountain show scheduled to be held on the Saint-Louis Day in Versailles.

Perhaps this was one of the reasons why bread prices soared before the Revolution.

Before Georgiana read the information compiled by Gobert, she had never thought about it. Even if the aqueduct was built, the water in the aqueduct would freeze due to the cold winter in Paris. Unless the water in the aqueduct was kept rapid, such a flow would not only prevent

Freezing also provides power to flour millers in the wheat market.

This is a question for engineers to think about.

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

Although it is a bit exaggerated, Georgiana planned to use the way banks escort banknotes and gold, and let the mounted police escort grain from the warehouse to the market, and then from the market to the mill and bread oven, based on the amount of cash held by a single person rather than by him.

Divide the bread evenly.

There was also a famine in the Eastern Roman Empire. The government's approach at that time was to provide food to the "Romans" first. In addition to the legal provisions that prohibited divorce, the Civil Code also stipulated that every French citizen should have an identity card. If he did not have an identity card,

Foreign residents with certificates, such as women who married into France from other countries, should also have marriage certificates and family certificates. They can use this certificate to buy limited quantities of bread.

She needed to find a pilot city other than Paris.

She used a typewriter that didn't work very well to write the plan. Maybe it would be buried in Napoleon's piles of documents and forgotten, but she did like this feeling of "working".

And the lumber factory she had so much hope for is now in trouble.

The new British Lord of the Navy, St. Vincent, stopped shipbuilding and laid off workers in the shipyard. The shipyard's wood supplier suddenly ran out of stock. Almost all the wood in the UK that could be cut was cut down. The wood used for shipbuilding had to be imported.

She was not going to intervene until the rights and wrongs were clear, because the French also had their own forest land and could use their own wood and did not need to import Russian wood.

Therefore, Talleyrand's opportunity to obtain inside information and redeem his bonds at a fair price was truly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. There were no subsequent troubles and profits were made again.

She had a good idea and wanted to make some private money through the lumber mill.

The living expenses of 500,000 yuan a month are gone, but the living expenses of 50,000 yuan are still available. Under the outer shell of generosity, Bonaparte is a very calculating petty bourgeoisie. When he gets a girl, he still needs to be as aggressive as before he got married.

Is it generous?

"Bad thing." She cursed while typing.

The sound of notes beating on other girls' fingertips was the sound of a typewriter crackling on her fingertips.

Early summer hadn't even ended yet, and she was already thinking about winter. How could time pass so fast here? It was already a year in the blink of an eye. When would Severus come to her?
