Chapter 1993 The Kind Manager Enters

 Chapter 1995 Kind Manager (Part 2)

During the old system, in order to confirm whether salt was added to the pickled food at ordinary people's homes, tax collectors would taste other people's food, and even go to wineries, measure other people's wine barrels, and ask to see other people's drinking records.

50,000 customs inspectors or farm clerks and 23,000 civilian soldiers were deployed along the 12,000-mile domestic defense line, like a chaotic and complex network, surrounding every province, city, district or town, targeting twenty or thirty species.

Nearly 1,600 types of tolls are levied on different commodities and are subject to provincial or municipal taxes.

After the revolution, human rights came first. Without an arrest warrant, the police could not just enter civilians' homes, let alone taste the salt in other people's food.

The main thing is to make people far away from Paris feel the new ideas and progress, otherwise some people will still confuse the French Revolution with enlightened despotism and the American Revolutionary War.

The idea of ​​the French Revolution is the theory of social contract. The Declaration of Human Rights states that "the purpose of society is to benefit the public." Under the first requirement of the common interest, individual free initiative must not interfere with the order and conditions of any social life.

, that is, Article 1 of the Declaration of Human Rights, that all human beings are born and always free, and are all equal in rights, and social differences can only be based on common interests.

France does not allow joint stock companies, but it allows partners in the Civil Code. Partners are equal and there is no large shareholder bullying small shareholders. That is to say, if there is a debt, each must bear the amount according to the number of partners or equal.

Part of the debt, even if one of the partners has a smaller share in the partnership, unless the contract stipulates that the liability of the partner will be determined in proportion to the share.

A debt contract entered into for the calculation of a partnership only binds the parties to the agreement and does not bind other partners, except when authorized by other partners or when the event is changed in favor of the partnership. This does not apply.

For example, a opens a piece of wasteland, he owns the land, and then uses the land to get a bank loan to buy cows, but he does not know how to raise cows himself, so he leases the cows to b. B can be an individual,

It can also be a legal person who regularly pays the rent of the leased cattle to a according to the contract. a does not care about raising cattle at all. At the same time, the fertilizer income from cow dung and the income from milk are not obtained by a. b through its own internal contract,

Share the income equally with the partners, or distribute it according to the shares. This is negotiated by the individual or legal person represented by b. Similarly, if rinderpest occurs on the farm and all the cattle die, b will also be responsible for compensating a. The amount of compensation is according to

b Calculation specified in the contract, or shared equally by all.

With the current land prices in Brittany and the discounts brought by the state's purchase of Dutch cows, the loan can be easily repaid, but the prerequisite is to eliminate discrimination against herdsmen and eliminate inequality.

Partnerships are inevitable. The British "Bubble Act" prevented joint ventures, but businessmen found investment trusts. Good managers must be based on trust. Trustees must manage finances for others and must take the interests of the beneficiaries as the purpose and handle them with caution.

Trust matters.

Some women bring a dowry to their husband, which is equivalent to finding someone to help her manage her finances. No one would find a Ponzi schemer to handle the trust.

A good manager is cautious and takes legal responsibility for all his actions, including actions and inactions, such as cleaning the cowshed, treating livestock, etc. He does not have to do anything, which will cause the livestock to get sick, and the animals will get sick and die.

He will be legally responsible for paying for renting other people's cows.

Raising cattle also requires breeding just like raising grapes. There is a kind of Cotenton cattle in Normandy. Each cow can produce 100 kilograms of butter. To improve livestock breeds, it is necessary to establish a pedigree to ensure "pure breeding". Dutch dairy cows have been selected for many years.

, now the focus is on milk production, not on meat quality. And the young bulls that supply Paris with meat are also Normandy bulls. The growth period is only 6 weeks, and after this period they start to eat grass.

Last year, in order to provide meat to Paris, not only this kind of calves were killed, but also some cows with poor health. In short, the price of meat in Paris will definitely rise this year. No one thought that France would encounter food shortages for two consecutive years.

Cut production.

Shepherds are mostly lazy, farmers have little foresight, and those who grow grapes are full of energy. This is related to the unattainable status of grapes and wine. In the new era, horsemen transporting wine no longer have to travel to 20 places to pay taxes and suffer the ridicule and insults of tax collectors.

, there is no need to delay for ten days and a half for no reason, waiting for the clerks to sign documents and passes lazily. Maybe only the innkeeper will see those officials in green uniforms.

Generally speaking, agriculture has a long cycle and low profits, but in the eyes of bankers, it is better to have land mortgage than to lend money to factory owners who want to live a pastoral life, and then wait for them to liquidate their assets and walk away.

Farron said that you can raise sheep, but raising sheep is more complicated. The lessor of the wool can only receive half of it. There are also profits from raising calves and lambs. These are not clearly written in the Civil Code.

The Italians can sell their twisting machines and give them a resident engineer to repair the machines. If there is no problem with the machine, he will drink coffee. If there is a problem, he will repair it, and he will receive his monthly salary. This solves the problem of textile problems.

This solves the problem of low industrial efficiency and solves the shortage of manpower in agriculture. It can raise more "vegetable cattle" dedicated to meat.

The cotton textile industry in Normandy only accounts for a small part of France's total demand for cotton cloth, and the Far East also provides one-third of the cotton cloth demand.

But Georgiana still heard other meanings in Ludrell's words.

In September of the 8th year of the Republic, Napoleon was still in Egypt. How could he go to Victory Square to listen to Gala read the 107-page manuscript? It was also impossible in September of the 9th year of the Republic. He was in Marengo at that time.

However, it is true that there was originally an equestrian statue of Louis XIV on Victory Square to celebrate the Treaty of Nijmegen that ended the Franco-Dutch War. The equestrian statue of Louis XIV was destroyed during the Revolution, and the statue was later replaced.

It is a wooden pyramid, and originally a sculpture by Desai or Kleber was to stand there instead of the pyramid.

Later, Kléber's copper pillar was erected near the Botanical Garden, and Desaix's was in Dijon.

The seemingly shiny golden Kleber sculpture is actually carved from wood and painted with gold paint, making it look like metal.

These are not the main point. The main point is that Luederer talked about Louis XIV several times just now. She didn't remember much about the Treaty of Nijmegen, but she remembered a little bit. The Netherlands regained all its land on the condition of remaining neutral, and France

To reduce tariffs to the Netherlands.

Since steel is exempt from tariffs, of course it cannot be reduced any further, so what needs to be reduced is textile tariffs.

She didn't know that she had understood it wrong. Luederer didn't mean it at all, but just reminded her to find a good master of ceremonies.

She had to think carefully, after all, history proved that Napoleon was right, because his policies provided a "nursery" for France's later industrialization. Some fragile lives need to be carefully cared for, and if they are allowed to go through the wind and rain too early, they will die young.

However, she also remembered what Perrier said, that some new small businesses with mixed quality will cause manufacturers that have survived in this industry for decades to go bankrupt. They do not understand the rules of the industry and do not know that some things are prohibited, and these are

It is a lesson learned from previous generations.

Anyway, the French didn't seem to let her touch the sand sluice chamber. Maybe it involved their internal interests.

But she remembered one thing. The British judge Stowell and the Supreme Judge of the United States of America John Marshall established a system of Anglo-Saxon fishing laws. Once Britain and France returned to a state of war, the grain shipped to Belgium would not be able to go to the sea with confidence.

Shipped by sea.

Profitable war or unprofitable peace, everyone knows which one to choose.

Although it was annoying, she still learned something from it.

Whether it is Stowell or Robert Peel Sr., no matter what their personal character is, they will make "helpless choices" when faced with changes in their stance.

Therefore, it is not enough for wizards to only look at the character of individual Muggles. Just like Newton, his personal intelligence has no effect at all in the South Sea Bubble.

Albus said that what determines who we become is not what abilities we have, but what choices we make.

He is indeed a smart man, but unfortunately he seldom goes to social situations outside except for entertainment in school.

Georgiana looked at the road ahead, where was her path?
