Harry Potter Morning Light
Chapter 1371
Napoleon hoped that Paulina would take her son Delmid and go to Santo Domingo with Le Kebeier, who would serve as the governor of Santo Domingo.
The literati who came with Napoleon and Granit was named Raleigh, and he was a military doctor. He came this time to vaccinate Paulina and Delmid.
Vaccination wasn't Raleigh's specialty, he was better at surgery, but how hard could it be?
Perhaps it was Napoleon who remembered the experience of his coup d'état when he had just returned from Egypt, and he didn't want Leclerc to experience it, so he installed Pauline in the Grand Trianon Palace.
He thought that outsiders would not make him look bad in Polina. In fact, he underestimated this sister. At the beginning of the lunch, he was quite polite. Later, Napoleon said, "If you are afraid that you will not get used to the life in Santo Domingo, you can ask for it." Then Polina got angry and quarreled with Napoleon directly, and the lunch broke up unhappy, wasting a table of food prepared by Georgiana.
After Paulina left, Napoleon told Granit that he could ban all imports of raw and cooked goods within 48 hours after the signing of the peace treaty, and issue a shipping order to allow only French ships to enter French ports, and then He also left.
Leclerc, like a taciturn German, left shortly after Pauline and Napoleon left.
Laleigh and Mrs. Talian looked at each other after they left, and left in a tacit understanding. When Granit was the only one left at the table, he began to explain the cause of this "family dispute" to Georgiana.
The territory of Orange was annexed by France in 1713, and the Netherlands became a republic in 1795. The original rulers, the Orange family, were overthrown and members of the family fled to England. In the draft agreement signed by Hawkesbury in October, there was no mention of compensation to the Orange family, and of course there was no signing of trade relations.
In peacetime, each suzerain country will monopolize the trade with its own colonies, and the vassal country is not allowed to engage in commodities that compete with the suzerain country, trade with other countries, or use ships other than the suzerain country in foreign trade. This kind of power is called "exclusive trade". right".
According to the "Rule of 1756", since the French navy is at a disadvantage, it cannot use its own merchant ships to maintain the trade of its colonies, and the suzerain country cannot guarantee the colonial trade of its own merchant ships, and does not allow the vassal countries to use ships other than the suzerain country, so the business cannot be done. Therefore, France opened the trade usually reserved for itself to the neutral country Holland.
After the Netherlands opened its mouth, dependent countries such as Spain and Italy also gave up their "exclusive trading rights", which led to neutral countries being able to load goods in these colonies. After 1793, Britain, just like in 1756, banned the power of neutral countries, and other neutral countries in Europe could only submit to Britain.
However, in order to appease the Americans, Britain allowed these neutral merchant ships to load goods in the West Indies to trade for the neutral country itself, or the United Kingdom, and the British Navy provided protection for these cargo ships. In this way, the United Kingdom almost completely monopolized the colonial commodities, and regarded the neutral countries as its own helpers. The United Kingdom also issued some neutral country charters according to its own needs. The Scandinavians, Prussians, Hanseatics, and Americans reaped huge profits despite their discontent. After the Netherlands was occupied by France, Hamburg then became a transit point between Britain and Germany, and became the largest banking center in Europe. It was through the Parish Bank in Hamburg that the Anti-French Alliance received British subsidies.
The system of issuing trade orders has already become a system in the United Kingdom, and the system of issuing trade charters has not yet been fixed in France. If Britain can issue special trade certificates to neutral countries, then France can also issue special trade certificates to its vassal states, such as Spain. The blank trade certificate issued by Uvral can save American companies from loading goods in the West Indies, allowing Atlantic shipping is booming.
The maritime rights and interests of various countries are almost all trading rights, that is, freight rights and interests. The ocean is like a plain with many roads passing through it, which can provide countries with a wide range of transportation and transportation methods. Affinity is negligible.
The Duke of Orange lost the legal rights of the Netherlands, but still had the legal rights of the colonies. It was reasonable for the Duke of Orange to propose compensation.
After the War of Independence, the United Kingdom once banned American ships from docking. Later, because of the demand for cotton, this ban was gradually lifted. After Napoleon’s order was issued, even if the peace treaty was signed, the relationship between the two countries would still return to the state of war.
Granite transported Spanish silver coins to the West Indies to avoid intensification of conflicts. For Napoleon, Spanish money was his own money, and the British cruisers transported away his reduced Spanish war compensation. At present, the focus of public opinion in the UK Still on the Corn Law, the landlords strongly urged the British government to strengthen the Corn Law. It seemed that they thought that with the British Navy and the English Channel, they would not have to worry about French invasion and could live a "normal life".
Even with enough supplies, fresh water still needs to be replenished on shore.
If Napoleon is said to be invincible, then the fortress of the Hospitallers is also indestructible. When occupying Malta, Napoleon did not directly choose to attack by force, but used the supply of fresh water as an excuse. For this "reasonable request", the Grand Master of Malta expressed that he would follow the principle of neutrality. In principle, at most 4 ships can enter the port at a time, and it is impossible to let Napoleon's fleet in at one time.
He made the plan to attack Malta a year ago. He sent spies in and instigated the members of the Knights. The fortifications built by the hospital knights spent a lot of money and energy did not work at all, and they surrendered after a little resistance.
"The Leclerc family will set sail in Brest, and Leclerc can rest in Paris for a few days, provided that Pauline can really clean him up." Granit rubbed the bridge of his nose, and said a little tiredly, "This is a disaster." .”
Georgiana also couldn't find what to say to Granit for a while.
She thought it must be a coincidence that no matter how smart Napoleon was, he would never be so smart as a monster.
"The solution that London came up with is to ask the Duke of Orange to demand compensation?" Georgiana asked.
"The detour is good for cheating," Granit said, "just like he's cheating on you."
"Don't do that." Georgiana shook her head.
"Don't do anything?" Granit asked with a smile.
Georgiana took a sip of her soda.
"I heard that you wrote to Mr. Jenner, hoping that he would adopt you as an adopted daughter. Is this what you thought or what he asked?" Granit asked.
"His idea." Georgiana said coldly, "I told him that if Mr. Jenner disagrees, he can't force it."
"Tell me, how did you do it?" Granit asked.
"Do what?"
"Turn an angry man into a tame lion," Granit said.
"I don't know what you're talking about." She looked at the unfinished food on the table, "What a waste."
"The development of shipping in the United States has made many people jealous. The Navy has never made clear regulations on 'neutralization'. Some ships have not collected tariffs in accordance with US regulations. Even the capture court is accelerating the confiscation of goods. Retaliation." Granit sighed, "But I don't think it would be a good idea to be an ally with the United States."
"He likes land more than gold coins. I guess his goal is to join forces with Quebec to attack the United States from the south to the north. Will Britain help the United States fight the French?" Georgiana asked with a smile.
Thomas Granit laughed. "Do you think the French navy can hold off pirates?"
"You mean pirates in the uniform of the British Navy?"
Granit smiled without saying a word.
"I went to see the child." Georgiana also put down the napkin, "I hope his parents remember to take him away."
"Do you think he will make your child his heir?" Granit asked again.
"I can't have a baby, you forget?" said Georgiana calmly.
"How do you know it's not his problem?" Granit said again, "I heard you were pregnant."
Georgiana didn't want to continue discussing this issue. This kind of attack was too vulgar.
"Do you think he's a man of promise?" Granit asked before she left.
"What does that matter?"
Granit watched her silently.
"Let him control Ufral, or we will take the necessary measures." Granit said after a moment.
"Just like Ulm, when he was negligent, he couldn't control the Spaniard." Georgiana smiled wryly, "He signed an agreement with Ulfral, or you will also sign an agreement with Ulfral. share?"
"What is the content of the agreement?"
"He is very clingy, and we are always together, sometimes even in the office." Georgiana said, "But he has been avoiding me recently, and he is also working in the King's Botanic Garden when he comes back."
"He also has an office in Versailles, why doesn't he go there?"
"He said he didn't like the tacky decoration inside, and the smell that seeped into the cracks in the wall, and the smell was so bad. Tell me, how did he arrange the office?"
"I thought I was in Egypt," Granit said. "There were African plants everywhere, and there were a lot of Egyptian sculptures."
She suddenly became curious about his new office.
"Cecilia, let him focus on other things." Granit whispered, "For example, on church issues."
"Have some morals, Diamond Kid," said Georgiana dryly. "I hope this is the last time I hear you say that."
Then she also left, leaving the guest alone at the table. Fortunately, Mrs. Talian and Lalei came over immediately. They entertained him with courtesy and thoughtfulness instead of her. Not good looking.
Both the 1756 rule and the 1793 rule are well-documented. The trade friction between Britain and the United States can be seen from the prohibition of importing British goods issued by Congress in 1806. It was almost at the time of the embargo by the US Congress that Napoleon’s continental blockade also began. , India, the Baltic Sea and the Adriatic Sea have become the "battlefields" of Britain, and the "bureau" is probably like this
