Chapter 1502 Strait Dilemma

 Chapter 1503 “Reminder”

Tobago is just opposite Trinidad. If the British want to smuggle goods from Trinidad, Tobago will not be able to detect any movement.

Spain was an ally of France, and the Netherlands was controlled by France, so the Gulf of Mexico was almost at the mercy of Bonaparte, who also controlled smuggling in the Spanish West Indies.

Napoleon and his ministers often held meetings until 5 o'clock in the morning. He was young, and old people like Chaptard would feel very tired during all-night meetings. Moreover, he also canceled coffee, so the participants would inevitably feel sleepy.

And his mind is slow, far less energetic than him.

Equally energetic are the spies from various countries. Recently, they often see a short man leaving the Tuileries Palace after dark, walking in the direction of the Burgundy Mansion in an obscene manner.

And these ministers will get off work at this time and go home to sleep like normal people. Not everyone is Leonardo da Vinci or Napoleon, and they can regain their energy by taking a bath.

The Corsican monster is not a name for nothing. Sometimes you can't tell whether he is pretending to be strong in front of others or pretending to be weak in front of that British woman. The issues of the suffragettes are all-encompassing, and the agenda for June 17 alone includes the surgeon inspection system

, organization of chemists, selection of district governors of important districts, harvest status, Maltese refugees, draft law concerning the National Guard, responsibility for building roads, quartermaster management, pawns, accounts of larger communes, gamekeepers, chambers of commerce, allowing the return of exiles

The laws of Saint-Germain, the electoral law, the merger of the two provinces of Corsica, the administrative boundaries of the provinces on the left bank of the Rhine.

This is just a day's agenda. Napoleon is like a hard-working bee. His biggest shortcoming is that he likes to build large buildings. He often orders people to start work before the plans and budgets are completed.

The British have taken advantage of this field again. They are exporting both steel and cement. Perhaps it is because of this that they arrested the editor of the British Royalist Party. I don’t know which prison he is in now.

Napoleon seemed to be messing around, but in fact since the signing of the Peace of Amiens, France has always had a trade surplus if steel and grain are not added. According to the results of the Senate investigation, in 1802, potatoes were already used to replace bread and bread in rural areas.

Even with extensive planting, the harvest is only slightly better than last year, so the Baltic Sea has become a focus.

The price of wheat at 24 francs per quintal is definitely high in normal years, but now people cannot buy it even if they want to. The cheapest one is 33 francs per quintal.

In fact, when famine occurs, the most terrifying thing is not that there is no food, but poverty. Well-off families cannot feel it. Food prices have increased and they can still be bought with money, while poor people who do not have overnight food at home can only look at it.

Sighing at the unattainable food prices.

The only comforting thing may be that the summer of 1802 was hotter than last year, and maybe this year will not be as cold as last year, so that we can look forward to the harvest of 1803.

Even so, the farmers are still preparing for the celebration, just to cheer up themselves and their neighbors.

August 15th is Napoleon's birthday, and he will hold a banquet at the Tuileries Palace to celebrate as usual. In order to avoid the situation where so many people came last time that Josephine had to open her bedroom, Georgiana specially

Belzer was reminded to pay attention to personnel control, and tents were set up at the cavalry training ground to disperse the flow of passengers.

This year’s theme is not Egypt. She changed it to an ice sculpture of a Mediterranean mermaid. In order to avoid the congestion of customers, she also opened several doors of the Louvre. The Marquis de Saint-Simon, the person in charge of the restaurant, was in charge of serving the buffet.

The electoral law stipulates that the top 600 people who pay taxes can qualify for election. Civilians have no way to participate in this. No matter how much they pay, they cannot be compared with those who run factories and mines. The Italian Republic is divided according to occupation.

Not many shoemakers can chat with big capitalists.

Georgiana asked the Minister of Education to select some outstanding students so that they could also have the opportunity to participate in the birthday party of French academicians. In addition, she also asked them to place some exhibits from the industrial exhibition at Napoleon's birthday party. Originally, the ancient Greek philosophers

Machinery must also be invented.

Georgiana did not know where Toussaint Louverture was currently being held. Gobert only told her that the Black Death was a disaster, as was yellow fever, and that Toussaint Louverture was a refugee.

He arrived in France as a non-prisoner and is currently in isolation. He is alive and well.

One Thousand and One Nights converted into three years. Georgiana had a premonition that she would not stay in this dream forever, Severus would come to find her.

She had sworn an oath not to leave without saying hello when Severus came to see her.

She originally planned to use Life of Pi to fool her, but unfortunately Napoleoni was not that easy to fool, but he didn't force her to take an oath like he forced the priests.

Compared with the war, where everything went smoothly, internal affairs were full of troubles. The place where planting was so extensive last year also lost a lot of money, but there is no other way. France is not like England, and its population is England's.

Three times. The shipping capacity of Europe and even the Americas has been increased, but France's food demand still cannot be met. It is unrealistic to rely entirely on imports to solve the food crisis. The French still have to rely on the food grown on their own land to survive.

What do slaves do after they gain wealth? Clothes and housing. Many slaves have no houses at all, only shacks with only hay.

If Toussaint Louverture is willing to belong to France, construction workers will go to the island to build a place for the former slaves to live. In the future, there will also be furniture and various farming tools, so that they will be the same as the farmers in the French mainland.

Have my own property.

Ambition can bring about aggressiveness and also destruction.

She hoped that someone could take over, but unfortunately Josephine might not be a good candidate. Bonaparte went back to Malmaison two days ago, and Josephine gave him a little monster, which was a dwarf or something.

Wearing a red liberty cap on his head, he was placed in a basket.

Napoleon's private secretary mentioned it to Canova about this poor little thing, and Canova told Georgiana that neither of them knew what it meant.

The 1st of Portugal is coming soon, the deadline for the return of exiles stipulated in the amnesty, and Josephine still has many friends who have not gotten their property back.

Bonaparte was not a complete revolutionary party, nor was he a complete royalist. Josephine's actions also reminded him to be careful of those exiles who could not return home and continued to cause trouble abroad.

But Georgiana always felt that there was something wrong with Josephine's approach. Of course, she herself was not much better, dying or imprisoning herself at every turn, as if there was no normal woman around Bonaparte.

It was precisely because of this that she was so indifferent when she heard that Napoleon had recently become obsessed with a new opera star.

Therese Cuckooin is a female star that Chaptard also likes. She is like Christine in The Phantom of the Opera. She was protected by the Minister of the Interior Chaptard as soon as she showed off her skills in Paris. Unfortunately, her acting skills are not good enough.

In need of training, the outdated female star Miss Dimeni was willing to make up lessons for her. Chaptar wrote a letter to Dimeni to thank her, and the letter was published in the newspaper.

Where else could this have been obtained if Dumeni had not given it to the newspaper himself? Politicians who had such scandals would have to step down in the 20th century.

But even so, Chaptard was still in contact with Cuguin, and Napoleon knew Cuguian's significance to Chaptard and still did that. Unless Cuguin drove him crazy, there would be other reasons.

As far as Georgiana knows, it may have something to do with the industrial products trade between Britain and France.

To develop French industry, it cannot rely on Britain and needs to be independent and self-reliant. Bonaparte still supports Cockebert in his heart.

There is also the matter of the "Agrarian Revolution". Artificial grassland brings obvious benefits, but it can easily lead to land speculation. Napoleon pretended not to understand and could no longer pretend to understand.

Last year, Schaptal published a pamphlet called "The Craft of Brewing, Managing, and Improving Wine." This book has had a great influence, and Schaptal can definitely work in this direction.

That cuckoo was an excuse to fight for power. Of course, it could also be that Georgiana was too passionate. Maybe Napoleon just liked young girls and had a hobby of winning people's affections.

Shaptl is a very good interior minister, but he has overstepped his authority and needs to be reminded.

Georgiana was setting up the venue while thinking about how to remind him.

The British love to drink, and Americans who are greatly influenced by the British also love to drink. The prohibition of alcohol in the 20th century not only did not make social morality better, but actually made it worse. There were people making moonshine everywhere.

Jefferson hoped to develop a system of small farmers with equal rights. He was also a farmer himself. These small farms would make wine if they had grain surplus. Therefore, the American West was full of drunken "cowboys" who rode horses and fired guns randomly.

.

Even Bordeaux wine with a low alcohol content can make you drunk if you drink too much.

But a man can’t quit drinking when a woman asks him to, nor can he quit smoking, nor can he quit gambling. The Prince of Wales almost quit drinking when he was accompanied by a Catholic widow. What’s the reason for this?

Sometimes she really doesn't understand what men are thinking.

"Give her two shells, or change the shape!" Georgiana said angrily as she looked at the mermaid sculpture designed by the Sculpture Academy.

"This is art." The sculptor said seriously.

"I don't care about art, anyway, you have to find a way to cover her breasts!" Georgiana said in a very feudal manner.

The sculptor seemed to think she was an unreasonable woman and turned around and left.

"Remember what I said!" Georgiana Anna said to his back, and then whispered, "How can a child see such a sculpture?"

After saying that, she continued to do other things.
