Chapter 1430 Trojan Horse
When the maids came back from vacation, many things changed.
For example, Sophie, the former headmaid, left, and the new headmaid, Earl Billis, took her place. However, she was not responsible for the work of "serving", but only served as Georgiana's secretary and collected novels.
So Georgiana dismantled the bed in the lounge, and placed a table and a row of cabinets for Mrs. Billis. Mrs. Billis liked the Indian-style curtains very much.
The first guest to come here is Coquebert de Montbray, who will be sent to London as a French business representative after the signing of the Peace Treaty of Amiens, and Napoleon's classmate Colonel Lauriston will also go with him , they very much hope to meet with representatives of the British business community in France.
Georgiana intends to borrow the Sevres ceramic factory, which is built in a style similar to that of the royal palace, and then she asks Mrs. Billis to write the invitation letter, and also asks her to find the gardener of Malmaison. The roses are here, and some deep purple ribbons are to be ordered.
Mrs. Billis agreed to her request very docilely. She didn't know how to use a typewriter, but wrote by hand. Aristocrats like her from the old days often wrote very gorgeous cursive characters, plus roses and purples. Ribbon, an ordinary but gorgeous letter is written.
Under Albus' "rule," Georgiana would only be restrained and frugal.Napoleon taught her that if rich people don't spend money, workers in other industries such as furniture, ceramics, high-end fabrics, perfume, construction, etc. will have no work.
Even the gardener who cultivates roses will face unemployment, and no one will buy the flowers he grows. Is it a hobby for him to cultivate these roses?
Tulip bubbles are also caused by a small number of people, but even without tulips, there are other things that can cause bubbles, such as blue cloth and grain.
Georgiana remembered that William Pitt Jr. and his allies had repeatedly reminded her that they had given up the protection of Portugal by force, and that the best way to reduce costs was to reduce intermediate suppliers, and the port of Lisbon in Portugal could still be used by British ships.
Currency is usually made of metal, and iron is also a kind of metal. In "The Wealth of Nations", it is mentioned that there is a village in Scotland that still uses iron nails as currency.
She doesn't know much about the French smelting industry, but the British steel company wants to do business in France. There are only two ways to ship goods from the UK to France or build a steel factory in France. Before the canals in Bruges are cleared out, British merchant ships need Find somewhere else to dock.
The best way is of course to persuade Napoleon to open the ports of France. This is of course "feasible". Land transportation is still not as cheap as canal transportation, especially for such heavy cargo.
So Georgiana asked Mrs. Beliss to write an invitation to Gaston Martin, asking him to come to the party.
In addition, the Marley brothers from the General Administration of Grain were also coming. She thought about who to invite one by one, and Mrs. Billys wrote down the names of those people. Later, she remembered that the director of Sevres seemed to be unable to hold a reception. Mrs. Billis added that she knew how to deal with it, having attended quite a few court receptions before.
Georgiana believed that there were many people who wished to attend this reception, and those who did not would definitely feel it was unfair. Then she thought of those celebrities who were willing to pay high prices for Sevres porcelain dealt with by Bernadotte, and she asked Billy Mrs. Si asked for the list.
The reception was not held right away, because Mrs. Billis began to write letters at her desk because she was not in a hurry. At this time, Georgiana fell into deep thought. She felt that she had to remind Napoleon that international futures cannot be controlled by France alone. Yes, it would be better for him to seldom touch such things as securities, no matter how much he pleases the bourgeoisie now.
Lang Zhi built a lot of granaries, and these granaries are waiting to be filled. This will have a certain impact on the futures market, but it cannot play a decisive role. It is a very complicated game. He is a military genius, but he may not be equally talented in this aspect , For example, he lacks talent in learning English.
God knows how difficult it is for a person who does not give in to life to "accept fate", but the fate of speculation failure is obvious. Lucian's wife is the widow of a speculator.
The warships of the French Navy are worse than those of the British Navy, but the French Navy is not as good as the British Navy. The problem of people is more serious than that of equipment.
People don't know how to be grateful when many things are obtained for free. Napoleon thought that if he built a canal and a water supply system, the citizens would have free and clean water to drink. This is actually harmful.
Some people will definitely waste water. People who have never been to the desert or the sea don’t know what it feels like to be short of water. She can calculate the unit price very cheap, but she has to limit the amount of water used. The total price will go up if you want to save money. , Water according to one's ability.
She needs to design a water meter. If everyone has the habit of consciously saving water, this thing may not be needed. The question is, is this possible?
Georgiana was going to write the letter herself on a typewriter, when she suddenly remembered that she did not know whom to write to, except M. Bronniard, the director of the factory in Sèvres.
She simply asked Michel to invite him, and Michel came back not long after he left. Mr. Brunnier sent him an equestrian statue of Napoleon, and now they are all in the Mars Hall.
Georgiana's first thought was David's painting of him riding a white horse across the Alps. He may not have realized that David had made a "joke" with him.
"Come on," said Georgiana to Michel, and then to Mrs. Billis. "If you need anything, you can speak to Matilda and Phyllis."
"Thank you for your concern." Mrs. Billis smiled politely, she didn't look like the kind of rebellious royalist at all.
If you plan to know everything about the situation in the palace, then arrange more eyeliners.
Matilda's habit of inquiring made her meet many people in the court, and the etiquette she learned in the noble school came in handy again, and she looked like a noble lady again.
Phyllis hated and envied this, and took the time to learn etiquette. On the contrary, Georgiana is still the same as before. Will she learn the damn etiquette?no way!
When Georgiana came to the exhibition hall where the artworks were placed in the Mars Hall, Napoleon was breaking the leg of the ceramic equestrian sculpture, and the people around him unconsciously opened their eyes wide.
She had heard from Josephine that if Napoleon didn't like a certain dress she was wearing, he would just stain it with anything he saw, ink, coffee, and force her to change it. .
He was more violent with Georgiana. He used a sword to slash the men's clothing on her body.
Napoleon had this attitude towards things he didn't like—destruction.
"General, if the artist who made this sculpture saw his work treated like this, he would die of grief," Brunnier said.
"It can be repaired with a little mud." Napoleon said coldly.
"I think it's best to smash it," Georgiana said at the door, and everyone in the gallery looked at her. "I prefer the Trojan horse and the horse designed by Leonardo da Vinci to the ceramic horse." .”
"They are all destroyed." Napoleon said with some joy.
"Are you going to reproduce them?" Georgiana said lightly.
"It's hard to say, what do you think?" Napoleon asked the officials around him.
No one answered this question.
"The land soaked in blood will become more fertile, and more ears of wheat will grow in the coming year." Georgiana looked at this sculpture, which is the same shape as him riding a white horse across the Alps. "How can there be rebirth without destruction."
After she finished speaking, she kicked the sculpture down, and it fell into several knots on the ground, making a deafening muffled sound.
Napoleon laughed, and said to Brunnier, "You heard what she said."
"There should be a sculpture at the entrance of an industrial exhibition, how about a moving horse sculpture?" adds Georgiana.
"Agreed, this is an unparalleled idea." An official applauded immediately.
"agreed, agreed……"
Then there were cheers and applause one after another.
Shaputal didn't speak, he looked on and seemed a little disapproving.
"Come with me, Mr. Factory Manager, I have something to talk to you about."
"Didn't you come to see me?" said Napoleoni in amazement.
She twisted his Grecian nose, smiled and left, followed by a shocked Bronniard.
When she got to a place where no one was around, Georgiana turned her head and asked, "Are you, like those people, wanting to enter the Senate?"
Brunnier was still dazed, as if he hadn't accepted a certain fact.
"If you really have this idea, then you should go to the church to receive communion first, instead of doing the sculpture just now."
"What... what?" Bronniard said frantically.
"Come and have a cup of tea with me." Georgiana patted him on the back and said kindly, "Or do you want coffee?"
Michelle glanced back at the hall just now, and then trotted up to follow.
