Chapter 1534 faux frais

 Chapter 1535 "Bear Son"

"If new coins are to be minted to replace the old currency, and as the First Consul hopes, the gold and silver content of the new coins are higher than the old currency, then we will need more precious metals." The supervisor of the Bank of France

Mr. Long said in an old and tired voice, "There are a lot of coins in French banks. They are like sleeping. They must be awakened and flowed into the market before we can recycle and recast them. Your agricultural loans can make those conservative bankers

Are you willing to lend these coins? Countries around the world are now short of precious metals, which is why so many foreign banks wanted to join last year."

Georgiana then remembered that it was almost time to plant seeds again, and the weather this year was indeed much warmer.

"What's there to discuss?" asked Georgiana.

"The First Consul hopes that this money will be raised in the form of fund-raising rather than national debt, and that the Ministry of the Interior, the Ministry of Finance, local governments and the Paris Agricultural Association will be jointly responsible for lending, so that the 'South China Sea Incident' can be prevented from happening again.

"Mr. Talon said, "You will be the main person in charge."

All Georgiana could think about was the 1.2 billion that Lan Zhi said.

"The lending area includes Lorraine?" Georgiana asked.

Talon said nothing.

"I don't know how much money I can raise," she said without confidence, "and I have to make sure there is no corruption in the operation, my God."

"You don't have to worry about this." Talon said with a smile, "We will appoint the most honest and upright people to handle it."

Peasants had to use "cash money" for transactions. During the monarchy period, farmers used finger coupons to pay land rent, and they also received finger coupons from selling grain. Loans would also be issued in coins instead of money orders.

After two consecutive years of losses, some small farmers probably couldn't bear it anymore. Georgiana thought about it and agreed.

In fact, she is more like an image spokesperson, just like King George of England guaranteed for the South China Sea Company. However, if the money is lost, she may really be guillotined, and she will not be as safe and sound as King George.

This is the advantage of hereditary kingship. Even if the common people were deceived into bankruptcy and their wives and children were separated, they would never think of overthrowing George II.

Things in the world are unpredictable. Even a genius like Newton who could calculate the trajectories of celestial bodies did not escape the storm that swept across the country. Besides, she was the one who started it.

With Georgiana's approval, Talon did not leave.

"I heard that M. Monge and M. Laplace asked their daughters to be your companions?"

"That's what happened."

"My daughter Leah used to stay in the palace." Mr. Talon said, "I remember that the queen usually had four female companions around her."

Georgiana smiled and shook her head.

This dream is getting more and more outrageous.

"Do you think it's funny because I'm an exile?" asked Mr. Tallon.

"That's not the reason."

"Can you tell me the reason?" Mr. Tallon asked again.

"I'm not a queen." She said seriously.

Mr. Tallon looked into her eyes as if to determine whether she was telling the truth.

"You don't seem to like opera, but do you know the story of the raped Sabine women?" Mr. Talon asked.

"How could I not know?" Georgiana smiled sarcastically. This subject is also one of the artistic inspirations for artists.

"Because a Sabine woman was so brave that she left the Roman city-state and came between the warring Romans and Sabines. She begged them hard that if a war broke out, which side would die. These abducted Sabine women would all lose their lives.

With her husband and family, this Sabine woman successfully moved the Sabines and Romans. The Sabines were also willing to join the Roman family and become Roman citizens. In terms of military strength, the Sabines could never defeat the Romans, and they had already

Being in defeat, the Romans looked much more honorable in putting victory at the end of the Sabine women's affair."

"You think I am a Sabine woman?" Georgiana said in disbelief.

"Some people also say that you are Helen of Troy, who brought disaster to Troy." Talon said softly, "Although you and Josephine both lost their virginity, you are different."

Georgiana almost laughed.

"In addition, of the 30 million we raised last time as condolence payments to the bereaved families of the soldiers who died during the Revolution, 20 million have already been paid. Will the remaining 10 million be turned over to the national treasury?" Talon asked again.

What else could she say?

"I want to open a cannery to solve employment problems for some women." Georgiana said.

"I think this money can be broadcast." Talon said, "Is 2 million enough?"

She nodded.

Talon stood up, bowed politely to Georgiana, and left her drawing room.

After he left, Matilda came in.

"Miss……"

"Who else is coming?" she said listlessly.

"If you become the queen, will I become your chief maid?" Matilda asked softly.

"The future of France is still in the hands of Josephine." Georgiana said coldly, "This is what the prophecy said."

Matilda pouted.

Georgiana could not explain more to the little girl.

Who would have thought that there was also a prophecy in the Muggle world 200 years ago, about a prince who would save Europe, but the royalists added "Bourbon" without permission.

This "prince" can come from Qianmo, because he may be drafted into the battlefield, and then create brilliant achievements like Napoleon, and eventually become the Emperor of France.

This is of course a dream, but it still arouses the ambitions of many people. When Napoleon was preparing for the founding of the Italian Republic in Lyon, Miss Talma and Rocoul performed Voltaire's "Merobe" at the Lyon Opera House.

There was a line at that time: The first soldier to become a king is lucky.

It is said that Napoleon was very unhappy about this, and looked very cold when receiving the actors. When he returned to his residence, he scolded the Minister of the Interior, and then the play was banned.

Napoleon felt that the person who sat on the throne of the king was of course the best person at the time, rather than relying on luck, and he was very disgusted with the lines that satirized Polyfonte. He felt that Polyfonte was an honest man and should not be killed. Other talents

It's the murderer.

Polyfonte was once a beautiful woman. She joined the virgin hunting group of the goddess of hunting and swore to remain a virgin for life. This incident aroused the anger of the goddess of love. Polyfonte did not fulfill her responsibilities as a woman.

The reason made her fall in love with a bear, and later she gave birth to a pair of bear-like sons.

Because their wild nature caused them to attack passers-by, Zeus sent Hermes to punish them and wanted the goddess of revenge to cut off their hands and feet, but Ares, the god of war, intervened in the hope that Hermes could commute their sentences.

After discussion, they decided to turn the brothers, Polyfonte and her maids into birds. One of the two brothers would turn into an eagle owl, which brought bad luck to people, and the other would turn into a vulture, which would be hated by gods and humans.

, Polyfonte turned into a giant-headed monster bird with dull eyes, greed, and gray wings. It was later killed, but what did it do wrong?

Voltaire once said that the secret to being a boring person is to tell people everything.

Polyfonte joined the virgin hunting group, but Cupid said she did not fulfill her duties as a woman. Cupid herself had a reputation for being unchaste, so why didn't the Hunting Goddess help her members?

Napoleoni was a Muggle who could speak for monsters. He saw Georgiana turning into a monster and did not kill her, but accepted her.

He forgave Josephine, but still separated from her because he could not accept an unfaithful woman.

He accepted her because she was a monster and it didn't matter if she couldn't have children, right?

Which normal person would accept a monster as queen.

If one day they met in the forest, she thought the little man in shabby clothes wouldn't be afraid of her.

It's a pity that their time and space are two hundred years apart.

She listened to a song. The man sang, "If one day I have nothing, will you still love me?" The woman sang, "If one day, I am no longer young and beautiful, will you still love me?"

She believes that there are women who will still love a man when he has nothing, just like Irene did to Tobia, even if she changed from a noble lady to a woman living in the slums.

But how many men can be like Arthur and still tell her that Jasmine is shaking when her waistline becomes thicker due to multiple childbirths?

She couldn't help but use a quill to copy the lyrics of the song onto the paper, and then left the living room with Matilda.

He still looked like a human, but didn't turn into a swan and fly away.
