Make France Great Again

Chapter 164 Increase Steel Production Capacity

Pessini described to Jérôme Bonaparte Bonaparte his "contributions" in Auxerre, which included, but were not limited to, the widening of streets, the dredging of rivers, the establishment of a unified water supply system, and the renovation of old houses.

Through Pessini's dictation of Georges Eugene Haussmann, Jerome Bonaparte can be sure that Georges Eugene Haussmann in Pessini's mouth should be the same person as Baron Haussmann, the founder of the modernization of Paris in the Second Empire in history.

The modern Parisian structure by the hands of Baron Haussmann has not been changed on a large scale until nearly the 21st century. It is the product of the perfect combination of classical aesthetics and modern industry.

This is exactly what I'm looking for!

Jerome Bonaparte secretly made up his mind that he must find an opportunity to "invite" the founder of Paris modernization to Paris and let him be the "designer" of Paris modernization.

"Pesini, do you think that the senior official George Eugene Ottoman can serve as the senior official of the Seine Province?" Jerome Bonaparte asked Pesini.

Pessini froze for a moment, Jérôme Bonaparte's sudden inquiry made him a little confused about what the president meant. Did the president take a fancy to Osman's talent, or did he take the opportunity to beat himself.

"I think reckless promotion may arouse Paris' resentment!" Pessini carefully put forward his own opinion to Jerome Bonaparte: "You can let Eugene Haussmann practice for a while, and then use him!"

"So which department do you think Eugene Haussmann should go to?" Jerome Bonaparte asked Persini again.

"Your Majesty, in my humble opinion, Eugene Osman should serve as a high-ranking Gironde official for a period of time to see the results!" After hesitating for a moment, Persini replied cautiously.

"Gironde!" Jerome Bonaparte turned his attention to Persini: "I remember that it belongs to the Provence region, the traditional vote warehouse of the royalist party."

"Your Majesty, this is the ability to reveal Eugene Ottoman's ability!" Pessini dumped the person who "taught" the people of Gironde to love Bonaparte to Eugene Ottoman without any psychological burden: "If Eugene Ottoman is in Under your appointment, if you obey the management of the Gironde province, it means that he has the corresponding ability. A person who can control the royalist city is fully capable of controlling the Seine province. This also proves that the president your vision

Conversely, if it is a person who has no ability, we can also turn him into a pawn to enter the Provence region. "

If Eugene Osman was in the Elysee Palace, he would be stunned at Pessini's behavior of "torturing" himself without hesitation in order to preserve his position in the heart of the president.

"I have no grievances or enmity with your Excellency, and your Excellency has fallen into trouble like this", may become the true portrayal of Eugene Ottoman's heart.

【After Eugene Haussmann received the transfer order from Paris, he vented his determination to go to the Gironde in his office. 】

"Yeah!" Jerome Bonaparte nodded and said to Pessini: "You have a good idea! I will order the cabinet to handle it after the Legislative Assembly begins!"

"Yes!" Pessini nodded in response, and then took out another title deed and handed it to Jerome Bonaparte.

Jérôme Bonaparte glanced at the deed that Pessini was holding in both hands, the one he had rejected.

"Pissini, haven't I already refused? Why are you still taking it!" Jerome Bonaparte frowned slightly and looked at Pessini.

"Your Majesty, Mayor De Reina said that this is the kindness of him and the entire city hall, and it is not worth the money. If you don't need it, they will tear down the house on the title deed and rebuild it." Pesini said to Jerome Po Nabal responded.

"Demolition and reconstruction? Can't be demolished! The things in the castle are all precious treasures." Jerome Bonaparte quickly replied to Persini.

"Your Majesty!" Pessini continued to hold the title deed in both hands without speaking.

"Alas!" exclaimed Jérôme Bonaparte,

"I reluctantly accepted it! By the way, how much is this castle, we have to pay them truthfully!"

"Your Majesty, I have already paid!" Pescini responded to Jerome Bonaparte.

"Just pay it!" Jerome Bonaparte nodded. He certainly understood that the difference between the "paid" price mentioned by Pessini and the real value on the title deed was at least 10 times smaller.

Sometimes you can't be too harsh on your opponents.

Corruption is a common problem even in the period of the Third Republic.

Even scandals such as the Panama Canal Company broke out. From the president to the prime minister to the officials below, a company can be eaten into an empty shell, and all the company's money is used to honor those bureaucrats. It is simply appalling.

Afterwards, the management and cabinet of the Panama Canal Company all resigned.

Those "conscientious" civil servants continued to fix their eyes on the next "sacrifice".

"By the way, have you brought the person I asked you to find?" Jerome Bonaparte asked Persini.

Pescini remembered in an instant that he seemed to let that guy wait for him in the living room to report first.

Talking with the president, he almost forgot the existence of the "guest".

"I almost forgot!" Pescini patted his forehead: "Your Majesty, the person you are looking for is in the living room right now, do you need me to call him over!"

"Go!" Jerome Bonaparte nodded to Persini.

Jérôme Bonaparte, who was in his study, ordered his servants to bring three cups of coffee.

It didn't take long before Persini brought the distinguished guests he had invited from Le Clézot to Jerome Bonaparte.

He has fluffy and messy brown-yellow curly hair, two pearl-like eyes inlaid on his unkempt face, and a brown-yellow coat with beige trousers is like a man who just returned from a construction site. Worker.

He was pinching his beige trousers with both hands, and his eyes were filled with the perseverance of a scientific worker.

Jerome Bonaparte stepped forward and stretched out his hand to the honored guest in front of him, saying: "Welcome to the Elysee Palace, Mr. Eugene Schneider!"

That's right, the guy in front of him is Eugene Schneider.

If you are a military fan, you must have heard of the "Miss 75" produced by Schneider Artillery Company. The rate of fire of "Polar" made it famous in the French army during World War I.

The so-called "Italian Cannon" in Bright Sword is "Miss 75".

If you are not a military fan, then you should definitely know about the famous Schneider Electric Company.

The founder of Schneider Electric, which has survived for nearly 100 years, is Eugene Schneider.

"Mr. President, hello!" Eugene Schneider bowed his head and saluted Jerome Bonaparte. His eyes have been looking at the president in front of him curiously.

Although he had heard about the president in front of him from his elder brother Adolf Schneider, he obviously had a deeper understanding of the president after seeing the president with his own eyes.

It's a little friendlier than the big brother said.

thought Eugene Schneider.

Still, he didn't understand why the president had taken him all the way to Paris.

In terms of value, the eldest brother who is in charge of all the banking business of the Schneider family is obviously more valuable than himself.

Far fewer invest in industry than in financial speculators in France.

In addition to the fact that the profits of industrial capitalists are lower than those of finance, there is also the fact that the entire French atmosphere is moving in the direction of speculation.

This has also led to the fact that most French industrial capitalists have a strong sense of self-protection. They would rather rely on the profits earned by their own industries to expand slowly than financial capitalists to inject capital.

This has led to many financial capitalists having nowhere to invest, and they are afraid that they will not be able to compare with professionals if they end up in person.

Adolf Schneider and Eugene Schneider, a pair of brothers, one is deeply involved in the banking industry and expanded his relationship network in Paris, and the other is rooted in industry and expanding its scale.

The two complement each other and achieve each other, so that Schneider has continued to be brilliant.

But Jérôme Bonaparte also knew that the Schneider brothers had historically invested a large amount of money in their cousins, and that their political speculations almost lost their money after the fall of the Second Empire.

"Mr. Schneider, I can call you that!" Jerome Bonaparte said kindly. He respected every industrial capitalist and scientist, because they are the ones who really create value.

"Your Excellency, of course!" Eugene Schneider responded with trepidation.

"Mr. Schneider, I called you here today to ask you some questions! You should know that the Ministry of Public Works is building a railway!" Jerome Bonaparte said to Eugene Schneider.

"Of course!" Eugène Schneider certainly knew, because part of the iron plates for the construction of the railway were provided by their company. His brother Adolf Schneider also said to himself, and the Minister of Public Works Morny said that the locomotive of the future railway It is also supplied by their company.

"That's right! I think the current steel production in France is too low, we need to increase steel production! What do you think?" Jerome Bonaparte asked Eugene Schneider.

"Of course! Your Excellency, do you mean that you want our company to increase production?" Eugene Schneider asked tentatively.

"No, no, no! What I mean is that the existing equipment can no longer meet our needs, can we update the equipment!" Jerome Bonaparte asked, spreading his hands.

"Your Excellency, please forgive me!" Eugene Schneider said in a low voice, trying not to offend Jerome Bonaparte: "I also know that the existing steelmaking methods cannot meet the needs, but I want to invent A whole new steelmaking method is too difficult. Sometimes it takes a little luck!"

"It seems that God still cares for me!" Jerome Bonaparte stood up with a smile, and Eugène Schneider and Persini quickly got up too, "You don't need to sit down!"

After speaking, Jérôme Bonaparte came to the desk alone and bent down to open the bottom drawer to take out a rolled-up drawing.
