Chapter 1895 father’s watch (3)

Just like DuPont purchased equipment for making gunpowder from France, Americans wanted to purchase land in Louisiana, and bankers from all over the world flocked to Belgium, bankers cannot be forced to provide money in Belgium. They must

A detailed business plan is required. After all, France after the Revolution is no longer a monarchy.

Generally speaking, Bonaparte's plan is to build Belgium into a light industrial base, including not only sugar and brewing industries, but also import equipment from France, grow sugar beets locally, and export wheat and other crops while ensuring French food security.

Go to a brewery in Belgium to generate income for farmers, and farmers change their production methods to increase yields per mu.

The general blueprint is like this, but some details need to be added, such as means of transportation, etc. Austria has also built a "railway" between the health resort and Vienna. This is not only to serve the nobles, but also because the nobles can spend money.

Napoleon relied on the Campo Formio Contract to ask Austria to compensate Belgium's national debt. Without issuing banknotes, they could only increase revenue and reduce expenditure to restore national strength, which would limit the size of the army.

Similarly, banks in various countries are putting pressure on the ruling government and are also restricting the repayment of loans used to buy food for disaster relief. The low credit limit of a big country will greatly affect the enthusiasm of investors. This money will not disappear with the death of Louis XVI.

If the smoke disappears and the people of France do not repay the money, France's credit rating will not be improved. As a result, France will be very passive in the international market.

The Treaty of Paris stipulates that the United States will repay the debt lent by Britain to the United States before the war. It is not the debt lent to the United States by Britain just now, but it was lent during the war. The meanings of before and after are very different, but just like Madison felt that the bank

Bankers were "paper men" who bankrupted Virginia plantations by manipulating numbers. Many people at that time, including businessmen, had a bad impression of bankers.

To transport supplies overland, we need to build roads. This is another time-consuming and laborious project. Starting from Queen Anne, the United Kingdom has asked the United States to establish a convenient postal system. This also requires building roads, but just like Madison

According to the book he wrote, each state refused to cooperate on internal facilities such as roads and canals, and even set trade tariffs among each other. They were obsessed with their own state interests and enacted a large number of county and state laws, making any one unified.

The establishment of a judicial system became impossible, hampering concerted action on foreign policy.

This road from Chicago to Philadelphia is not a road at all. It is a dagger stuck in the vital point. The person who proposed this plan was a member of the House of Commons, but behind him there were many creditors of the United States, and the gains of ten years were in their hands.

It seems to be quite a few.

However, Napoleon's term is 10 years. Maybe he can be re-elected. If he is not re-elected, who knows whether the next French leader will still like Georgiana so much?

As long as Britain and France maintain peace, then the grain-carrying merchant ships from Rouen can safely reach Antwerp, Belgium. This interest drive is much more binding than a contract.

Lucius Malfoy also has shares in British Petroleum Company, which is part of the American Petroleum Company. For people like Lucius Malfoy, he prefers to play this kind of game, which is why he joined the Food Company.

Dead Apostle. If Severus was still the one who could betray Slytherin for love, then Lucius would not invest in Severus. However, Voldemort was indeed crazy at that time, and he was leading

Slytherin and the purebloods went to hell. Severus prevented him from gaining fame, and because of his love for Lily, he gained popularity. Fortunately, he died. Even so, the Anti-Dark Magic Alliance did not

Give him the Order of Merlin he deserves.

In the past, goblins and werewolves were afraid of wizards because they were afraid of dark wizards who said "magic is power". They were not afraid of these soft-hearted, tender-faced young wizards. They rebelled. What would the wizards do?

A country needs deterrence. Egypt has become rich and stable because of the power of the Scorpion King. The same is true for the magical world. Prussia is in two states. People in contact with Europe, such as diplomats and dignitaries, know that the newly rising France has already

France is no longer the country it was before. Its diplomatic attitude is more pliable, and many people in Prussia are still immersed in the glory brought by Frederick the Great.

A war can make them wake up or wake them up. Whether to fight or not depends entirely on Napoleon's will. Wherever his baton points, the soldiers will go. This is probably what people call him a magician on the battlefield.

Even if you want to form an anti-French alliance, you still need military expenditures. The previous military expenditures were all paid by Britain. The money paid by Britain was given to Austria, and Austria in turn gave Belgium to pay off its national debt.

Many British prime ministers have served as finance ministers. Other European countries use indirect taxes, but French taxes are direct and rough, and civilians can see it clearly at a glance.

When the new government came to power, it tried its best to reduce taxes and evenly distribute the wealth of the nobility and the church to win people's hearts. However, this method was not a long-term solution. The income tax designed by the British reduced taxes on the poor and increased taxes on the rich. This is also the British rule.

Almost single-handedly paid for the anti-French alliance's military expenses, but his own finances did not collapse.

The tax collectors in France took away all their wealth from the hands of the poor and peasants. Rich businessmen also had to pay taxes, but the nobles were exempted from taxes because of their immunity. All those without immunity were in the third level. Waiting for the new

After the political system came to power, some people forced the nobles to pay back the taxes they owed. It was an ugly scene.

The French Revolution was an almost perfect chaos. Municipal officials would sign their resignation letters under the threat of a bayonet. To avoid a full-scale civil war, the city's barricades had to be dismantled. The intimidation bastion of absolutism rested on the workers' shovels.

Dust will return to dust, and dust will return to dust.

This mainly involves urban residents who make up a minority of the population, and the rural population is larger. The wheat riots and peasant uprisings during the feudal system were all the results of using "hunger" to promote civilians' "hard work and progress". The military is in a special situation

, they have to face many extreme environments. Can the kind of gentleman trained in the Louis XV Military Academy conquer deserts and mountains?

The Napoleon of this world hated Snape not only because of emotional issues, but also because he destroyed the granary and caused a lot of wheat to sprout and become inedible. He then asked Gabriel Houvral to go to Spain to buy grain. Originally, this matter was

Interior Minister Chaptal did it, but this minister was a chemist and he couldn't do speculative business.

Later, Houvral went to Spain and became the "Minister of Finance", and persuaded the King of Spain to issue a blank charter. The charter in the 19th century was very much like a contract. Franchise rights for trade such as mining, tobacco, and slaves would be

Granted to private individuals or companies, Spain had a large amount of silver coins left in Mexico, and Britain, which was severely short of hard currency, agreed and sent warships to escort it. Later, it got out of hand.

By tearing up the peace treaty and becoming hostile to France, you can directly deal with France's ally, but you can also use subtle inducements to bring Spain to your side. No matter which method, no one will be happy, Godoy is so good.

Being good-looking doesn't stop people from wanting to kick his ass.

With the suspension of charters, companies such as the East India Company will face competition from private companies. The cake used to be theirs alone, but now everyone can share it.

When the charter is restored, what will happen if the Spaniards continue to bill randomly? Yes, the British Parliament also accepted bribes when issuing the charter, but...

Although Spain is no longer the invincible armada of the past, their navy is still powerful, not to mention that they have marriages everywhere like the Habsburg family. Maria Theresa of Naples and Sicily is the niece of Marie Antoinette of Austria.

, her father was Carlos III of Spain, and her husband was her double cousin, Francis II, Emperor of the Holy Roman Empire.

Switzerland independently occupies a large amount of the territory of the Grand Duchy of Austria in the Alps, which is a transportation hub. The French have been restricted at sea, and they must also be restricted on land?

Swiss independence was not bound by the Campo Formio Treaty, even if the territory of the Holy Roman Empire changed again.

The Corsican dwarf who was often slapped in the face by Georgiana seemed to be easy to deal with. What could a dwarf who was beaten by a woman be capable of?

Madison was also almost 5 feet 4 inches tall and a short man. There was also a specter at the United States Constitutional Convention - slavery. If the Declaration of Independence was promulgated according to its original version, Georgia and South Carolina would cease to exist.

Not only did the "Founding Fathers" delete the Declaration of Independence, they also used ambiguous language in the Constitution, making it easier for representatives to compromise by turning slavery from a moral issue into a political issue, by omitting the word "slavery"

It is a cover-up in the history of the founding of the United States that the "Father of the Founding" was ashamed of.

Later, when Jefferson wrote his own epitaph, he asked that not a single word be changed. Hamilton, the founder of the New York Emancipation Society, did not stand up and speak out at the meeting. He knew very well what the consequences would be if he opposed it at this time.

Sometimes Americans are as good at compromise as the British. For those who have nothing, they dare to do anything. However, Louis XVI did not choose to compromise at this time. All the documents he signed at the Constitutional Convention before

It was all canceled because of the statement he left on the table before leaving.

As a constitutional principle, separation of powers and checks and balances was implemented in the British Chartist Movement. However, the British representative system will produce new aristocrats, and a country needs a super strong leader. For the freedom of the people, the king needs to hold the veto power.

If the king has ulterior motives and abuses his veto power, Parliament can choose a last resort weapon and refuse to pay taxes.

American designers strive to maintain and improve this legacy. The president also has the power of veto. From the founding of the United States to 1998, the president used the veto power a total of 2,500 times. Roosevelt used it the most when he was in power, 635 times, followed by

It was Truman, used 250 times.

Some laws are like women's pants. The law does not allow women to wear them without permission, but some people still wear them without permission. When everyone is having a good time, she can wear them however she wants and no one will criticize her. But once someone

If you investigate carefully, you will be punished if you can't come up with a note.

What does it care about such a "trivial" thing?

The first thing Napoleon did when he returned to France was to order public toilets to be built in Paris.

There is an urban legend that a student who got up early as usual opened the window and poured out the chamber pot, which happened to rain on Louis XIV's head.

He was not punished and was even rewarded for his diligence and studiousness.

For centuries, kings have been working hard to solve this problem. When Bonaparte proposed this proposal, someone asked again, what style should it be built? Is it like Rome?

After drinking, you have to go to the toilet. There is no toilet in such a big garden, and even if they had, Severus and Lucius would not have the courage to use it.

The Queen of England does not have veto power, but she has a privilege, that is, she cannot accept slights and insults, whether in words or actions.

The French do not have this restriction, and both the queen and the first lady will be reviled.

So compared to being loved by the people, it would be nice to not be scolded to death.

With the signing of the Treaty of Paris, Washington disbanded his army and gave a formal farewell speech to the army. Later, he invited him back when the Confederate Conference was held. There were too many contradictions, including that veterans did not receive pensions.

When King Washington emerged, veterans lamented that their sacrifices had been forgotten by state-based institutions.

This newly formed country is like a premature baby that needs an incubator to keep it alive.

Then Washington risked losing his reputation to participate in the Constitutional Convention, which had an uncertain future but was the most important in American history.

The Feuillants such as Mipolla, Lafayette, and Sieyes advocated that the king should be emptied out and become a complete puppet. However, they were still better than those who were bent on regicide.

On August 10, citizens from Marseille and some Parisians demanded that the Girondin Roland be reinstated. The king withdrew his veto power, that is, he withdrew his veto of the statement in the Marseille Parliament calling for the king to abdicate. They clamored for two hours.

, but received no response. Danton shouted, "Toll the death knell, let the king die. This is the time for the people's revenge and the time for the people's freedom. Take up arms and take action!"

When no shooting was allowed, Swiss mercenaries and the people fought for several rounds before being outnumbered and losing the palace. Louis XVI was forced to put on his cap of liberty and stand on the balcony of the Tuileries Palace.

Monroe gave Georgiana a beautiful fur suit, and later Bonaparte lit the suit she was wearing with kerosene and threw it out of the window of the Tuileries Palace. What did he mean? If there was a breakup,

How could American food be used to support the expeditionary force stationed on Martinique?

A republic is not a federal system. Its power cannot be divided, and its territory cannot be divided. It is impossible for Saint-Domingue to be as independent as the United States. However, Toussaint Louverture issued a constitution, declaring himself to be in power for life, and recognizing France's right to rule.

The atrocities committed by the French army in Saint-Domingue were brought back to Europe by a group of Swedish businessmen, and public opinion was in an uproar. At that time, the French people were furious. On Napoleon's birthday, someone posted a note on the door of the Tuileries Palace: "The silence of the people is an injustice."

A Lesson from the King".

It was quickly torn off. According to the rules of the "French game", when the demands for public order or the protection of freedom are in conflict, silence is veto.

The calm on the surface often represents a turbulent undercurrent. Georgiana's harmless "little pendant" was almost assassinated, not to mention Bonaparte Fouche was dismissed due to falling out of favor and the Christmas bombing of 1801. The Paris police force was at its peak.

State, the "jackpot" is Severus' head.

The Pope wanted to apologize to the priests who took the oath of the constitution, and the Bishop of Orleans tried to make it vague, so he was just a bishop.

There is a sentence in the "Revelation" written by King James of England, "I saw a woman riding on a scarlet beast." Shakespeare also used scarlet to represent hypocrisy and rage. The Puritans used this to argue that cardinals are all devils.
