Make France Great Again

Chapter 722 The Dilemma of Toulon’s Shipbuilding Industry

Looking at the child gradually moving away, Jérôme Bonaparte's smile gradually disappeared, and he slowly stood up and continued to move forward.

Minister Dico and Mayor Jacob, who were standing behind Jérôme Bonaparte on both sides, felt a little uneasy after seeing this scene.

Although Jérôme Bonaparte didn't say anything, they knew in their hearts that they were dissatisfied with the program just now.

As for why the emperor was dissatisfied, only he himself knew clearly.

Jérôme Bonaparte, who was walking from the port terminal to the main city of Toulon, looked at the group of imperial citizens holding high banners "Long live Bonaparte, long live the Empire" who were divided by soldiers on the left and right sides of the road in the main city. His face A bright smile bloomed again.

He took off the wreath on his head, gently threw it into the crowd, and then said with dignity: "Citizens of the Empire, your emperor is back!"

In an instant, the citizens on both sides of the street were all excited. They "spontaneously" shouted the slogan "Long live Napoleon III, long live the Empire"!

Jérôme Bonaparte looked at the group of fanatical citizens in front of him quietly, the corners of his mouth rising slightly involuntarily.

Think about why he insisted on going to the Crimean Peninsula to take command despite the fact that the empire was not yet stable.

Because of this scene in front of him, as the nephew of Emperor Napoleon, he would not be able to live on his uncle's merit list for the rest of his life.

He must write his own legend before Napoleon's shelter is exhausted.

Only in this way can he truly escape the shadow of Emperor Napoleon and become a true legend.

Now, having defeated the Russian Imperial Army and forced the Russian Empire to sign a humiliating treaty, he has embarked on the first step on this legendary road.

"Long live Napoleon III" is the best response to him from the citizens of the empire.

As the whole atmosphere went from high to low, the officers surrounding the residents also shouted hysterically: "Salute!"

All the soldiers will raise their guns in salute almost at the same time, and the bright bayonets are particularly dazzling in the sunlight.

Looking at the energetic and high-spirited soldiers in front of him, Jérôme Bonaparte smiled proudly on his face.

It was with the help of tens of thousands of soldiers like them that Jerome Bonaparte was able to defeat the Russian Empire in a short time.

Without the continued victories of the French Empire in the Crimean battlefield, which reduced the Tsar's prestige in the Russian Empire, Duke Golitsyn in the hinterland of St. Petersburg would not have launched a successful rebellion.

He may go down as unknown as in history, or he may die quietly on any street in St. Petersburg.

Thinking of this, Jérôme Bonaparte waved his hand gently, "Soldiers of the Empire, you have worked hard! I am very grateful to you for being able to maintain law and order here! It is because of you that our country, our country Only then can the nation be able to live safely on this land.

Peace in Europe requires not only flowers and salutes, but also spears and shields. "

Faced with this sudden compliment, almost all the soldiers cheered enthusiastically with the slogan "Long Live the Emperor".

The finally depressed atmosphere once again reached a new climax amidst the continuous cheers of the soldiers.

As Jerome Bonaparte continued to walk forward, the cheers he received became louder and louder. A small group of fanatical citizens even began to attack the human wall formed by the army, just to fight with Jerome Bonaparte. Ba met face to face.

Simply, every soldier can stick to their profession without letting them break through the human wall.

When Jerome Bonaparte arrived at the Toulon Port City Hall, the bureaucrats of the city hall stood in front of Jerome Bonaparte.

"Thank you!" Jérôme Bonaparte nodded slightly and said to the bureaucrats in the city hall.

Led by the city hall bureaucrats, Jérôme Bonaparte once again visited various offices.

The ceremony ended with Jerome Bonaparte entering the city hall. Then Jerome Bonaparte, under the arrangement of Minister Dicko, entered a heavily guarded castle on the edge of Toulon and settled temporarily.

"Dico!" Jérôme Bonaparte said to Minister Dicko.

"Your Majesty!" Minister Dicko responded quickly to Jérôme Bonaparte.

"Send a message to the business magnates of Toulon for me!" Jérôme Bonaparte responded to Minister Dicko.

"Your Majesty, please speak!" Minister Dico immediately said to Jérôme Bonaparte.

"Just say that I will invite them to dine with me at the best hotel in Toulon tonight. I hope they will not disappoint my good intentions!" Jérôme Bonnet said to Minister Dicko.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Dicko nodded, and then asked Jerome Bonaparte if he needed to make a reservation at the hotel.

"I don't need to trouble you with this!" Jerome Bonaparte shook his head and responded to Dico, then turned his attention to Valewski and said: "I believe Walewski can make arrangements! "

"Yes! Your Majesty!" Dicko immediately said goodbye to Jérôme Bonaparte.

Subsequently, Jerome Bonaparte sent Valewski to the hotel to book a banquet in advance.

Walewski also encountered some trouble while booking the banquet.

Since Jérôme Bonaparte was going to invite business giants from the entire city of Toulon, he needed to occupy the entire hotel.

However, that night, several nobles also invited friends to have dinner, and several guests were already staying at the hotel.

Therefore, the hotel rejected Valewski's request. If Valewski had not revealed his identity as Foreign Minister and quietly told the hotel owner that the person responsible for renting the hotel was Emperor Jérôme Bonaparte, Then they won't be determined to evict all the guests from the hotel.

After all, everyone who can enter the hotel has a big name, and expelling anyone at will may cause a big negative impact on the hotel.

Sure enough, after learning that he had been expelled, the guest angrily sought explanation from the hotel manager. The hotel manager had no choice but to smile and refund the accommodation fee tenfold.

When a few guests were reluctant to ask for an explanation, the hotel manufacturer took up the banner of Minister Walewski.

Those reluctant guests had no choice but to leave angrily, and the person in charge of the hotel started preparing the food for the banquet with all their strength.

As time went by, it soon came to around 6 p.m. At this time, the sky gradually dimmed, and stars also appeared in the sky.

Under the starry sky, a carriage stopped at the entrance of the hotel.

A pair of guests who looked like a couple got off the carriage and entered the hotel arm in arm.

When the hotel manager saw the couple, he subconsciously wanted to evict them.

When he took a closer look at the appearance of the man in the couple, he hurriedly ran to him and bowed and said: "Your Majesty, welcome!"

Yes, this couple is none other than Emperor Jérôme Bonaparte and Vernia.

"Well!" Jerome Bonaparte glanced at the hotel manager and said with a smile: "I haven't seen you for half a year, you have gained a lot of weight!"

"This is all your Majesty's blessing!" the hotel manager responded flatteringly.

"This is all the result of your own efforts!" Jérôme Bonaparte waved his hand and said, and then he seemed to have thought of something, and then said: "By the way, the bill this time should not be the same as the last time. It must be sent to the Tuileries! Do you hear me?"

"Your Majesty, we are lucky to be able to receive such a noble person as you!" The hotel manager hurriedly said to Jerome Bonaparte, he was not willing to send the bill to the Tuileries Palace.

"I can't eat and drink for free!" Jérôme Bonaparte responded to the hotel manager.

"Your Majesty, actually your coming here can already bring enough popularity to our hotel!" the hotel manager explained to Jérôme Bonaparte.

"Well? Tell me, how did you do it?" Jerome Bonaparte asked curiously.

The hotel manager told Jérôme Bonaparte that after Jérôme Bonaparte invited the Toulon Port giant for dinner for the first time, the hotel used Jerome Bonaparte's name to launch the Emperor's Package, which attracted a lot of attention. Many nobles and big entrepreneurs (bourgeoisie) came to taste it.

After hearing what the hotel managers said, Jérôme Bonaparte realized that they were using the "celebrity effect".

Although the current information exchange is extremely underdeveloped, it does not prevent Jerome Bonaparte from becoming a "national Internet celebrity".

And when he went to this hotel to eat, he had the same principle of "bringing goods" as some anchors in later generations.

After thinking about this, Jerome Bonaparte laughed and cursed: "You deserve to make money!"

The hotel manager bowed and smiled, then took Jérôme Bonaparte into the room to wait for the invited industrial and commercial giants to arrive.

As carriages approached the hotel's entrance, many industrial and commercial giants from Toulon Port gathered together once again to chat with each other.

The industrial and commercial giants who had not put the brakes on the war complained that the war ended too quickly; while the giants who had put the brakes on the war were contemplating mergers in their minds.

At 8 o'clock in the evening, the banquet started.

Under everyone's gaze, Jérôme Bonaparte and Vernia appeared before them.

As the host, Jerome Bonaparte expressed a warm welcome to them for arriving at the hotel, and then Jerome Bonaparte began to discuss the problems that might arise from the armistice.

"The purpose of calling you here this time is to see how many of you are continuing to expand your factories!" Jerome Bonaparte asked the industrial and commercial giants present.

Several industrial and commercial giants slowly raised their hands, and then more and more industrial and commercial giants began to raise their hands. Find the book garden www.zhaoshuyuan.com

To put it into detail, about 70% of the entire hall has not stopped expanding.

If industrial subsidies are suddenly stopped for these people, then the factories of a large number of them will be shut down and unemployed.

The shipbuilding industry of the entire Toulon port will also suffer a certain degree of heavy damage due to their suspension.

"Okay! I understand! You can put it down!" Jerome Bonaparte nodded and waved to everyone present.

Afterwards, Jérôme Bonaparte and everyone present began to exchange cups and drink and have fun.

The entire banquet lasted until early in the morning. After everyone left, Jerome Bonaparte ordered Valewski to call Dicko over with a gloomy face.
