[Comprehensive] Reincarnation Thousand Years

There is a kind of beauty that can be piled up with jewelry and temperament.This kind of beauty overwhelms the country and the city, causing tens of thousands of warships to launch together. --Inscription.

When she opened her eyes again, she had become a baby girl waiting to be fed.

Her name in this life is Eugenie Grandet.Her father was the richest businessman in Sommer, France, and synonymous with miserliness.

She could endure a poor life when she was powerless, but she couldn't bear to live like this for a lifetime.

Even though he has a lot of money, he still lives in a dilapidated house.

She and her father had very different ideas about the concept of money.

Monsieur Grandet kept hugging her and saying, "Eugenie, you're so good at spending money."

While looking at the money she spent with distress, at the same time watching with great interest the investments made by her daughter with the money have succeeded one after another.

In Mr. Grandet's opinion, once he has money, as long as it is in his hands, he must hold on to the money tightly. Even the boatman of the ferry boat to the underworld cannot take half of it from him. gold.

She is willing to invest in various industries, large and small, with a unique vision and a keen sense of smell. Although it is a trivial matter at the beginning, when the time comes to lend public loans, she is extremely willing to give all her property to her father for public loans.

Since she will get all the property of this family in the future, why bother to fight for such a small amount of money with her father at this time?

She went to church and read a book when she got home.

She has a shelf of books.

Every time Mr. Grandet saw the books on that shelf, he would have an expression of fainting, and he yelled: "My good daughter, dear, you must be able to remember what is written in the book after reading it, I know A decent used books dealer who will pay a fair price for these books."

So she replied: "I heard that the book has been stored for more than ten years. As long as it is well preserved, the value can be doubled several times."

M. Grandet only replied: "My dear, the income is much slower than the public debt."

She kissed her father's cheek and persuaded him to forget about it, instead it would be better to think about happy things.

For example, how much money has been earned in public bonds.

When the news of Paris Grandet's bankruptcy came, she realized that she actually had a relative in Paris.

Come on.

She rolled her eyes.

Although it's nothing for relatives to help each other, she has never heard of such a relative in her family since she was born. Relatives who don't even hear about Christmas, she thinks their family is dead. the difference.

For her, the old house of the Grandet family was her territory. Except for her family and Nanon, who had been working as a maid at home before her father got married, she was wary of all visitors.

After Grandet found that his daughter showed an excessive indifference to the attention of any guest who came to the door, after careful observation, he found that she was wary regardless of the severity.

Mr. Grandet felt extremely happy about his daughter's vigilance and territorial awareness, and he even took the time to tell her: "My little boy, you have to keep this vigilance all the time, those people..."

Mr. Grandet's hand drew an exaggerated circle in the air, and there was nothing in the circle.

She understood the gesture and giggled at her father.

Seeing this smile, Mr. Grandet said to her: "This is too frivolous."

She was thinking boredly in her heart, if I had enough money, who would care how I laughed?People regardless of gender and status, regardless of color and race, they have to kneel at my feet, kiss my robes, beg for my return, and fight for the gold coins and gems that slip through my fingers.

Under Grandet's education, she not only failed to become a stingy and qualified miser, but learned the essence of money and how to earn wealth at the same time, but she was unwilling to be wronged just to save money. own half.

Her thought at the beginning was "Since I can earn so much money, why can't I spend half of the money to satisfy myself?", and although Mr. Grandet was aware of this idea, he was only interested in himself. The youngest daughter has to boil water to take a bath every other day, and eat a roast chicken every week. It's a bit of a criticism, but since she doesn't spend half of the money she earns—especially because she doesn't like the new season Her clothes and jewelry, she wears a few sets of clothes back and forth every year, and changes them when they don't fit well. This is the only comforting thing for Mr. Grandet.

Mr. Grandet is even more gratified that his only daughter has inherited his sensitive sense of money and the outstanding talent for making money.

It's a pity that his nephew Charlie brought the news of Grandet's bankruptcy in Paris and the death of his parents, which made Grandet frowned.

And she put her arms around her mother's wrist, quietly around the fire together, watching Nanon spinning yarn.But she was thinking in her heart that if that Charlie wanted her father to help him pay off his debts, she would not give him half a franc.

Even if it is a relative, she has no idea that there is such a family in this world. In her opinion, the best way to help a relative is to give him a room for a while at this time. If she still wants to help her pay off the debt Or let him live for a long time, then this kind of person is really shameless.

Mrs. Grandet is a person who has no opinion. Before she gets married, she obeys her father's arrangement in everything, and after she gets married, she obeys all the family rules of Mr. Grandet. She doesn't even know how much her own dowry is.

Even though Mr. Grandet held his mother's dowry firmly in his hands, she still estimated a similar number by herself.

Although she was a little helpless to her mother's submissive temperament, she liked her very much. The two of them spun yarn together in their free time, learning how to draw beautiful lace, and how to weave shawls and sleeves.

This kind of saving is still within the acceptable range in her opinion.

But when her fingers were pricked several times by needles for making a cloak for her mother, she managed to finish this winter cloak, and swore angrily that she would never make a dress by herself again in this life.

This opportunity was realized a few years later.

But at this moment, she was guarding her relatives like a thief.

Of course, Mr. Grandet didn't have the slightest idea of ​​paying off his brother's debts. He liquidated the property behind Grandet in Paris. After the debt of 400 million yuan was repaid to 300 million yuan, he threw the remaining troubles to himself nephew.

She watched Charles Grandet cry for the debt with cold eyes, and the goodness in her heart because of her mother's existence made her take out [-] francs from her small treasury and lend it to Charles.

She asked Charles to write an IOU, which stated that she lent him 300 francs in order to help her cousin who was in debt of [-] million to make a comeback. As collateral for the [-] francs, Charles had to take out his mother Relic - a beautifully crafted and valuable dressing box as collateral.

She is kind-hearted, and the interest on this loan is calculated according to the bank's annual interest.

Charles still had some doubts about the interest, but Eugenie immediately withdrew the IOU.

"Oh, my dear Charles, you must know that there is no banker in the world except his own relatives who would lend money to a young man with three million in debt."

Charles immediately regretted it, and he wanted to sign the IOU immediately.

After getting Charles' signature and his fingerprint, she gave Charles the small purse worth six thousand francs.

Eugenie had made up her mind that she could hide this dressing-case well.

As soon as she borrowed the six thousand francs, she felt less money in her hands, and she naturally felt uneasy, and she would not feel at ease if she did not immediately try to make up for the loss from other places.

As soon as Charlie left, Mr. Grandet returned with the proceeds of the public debt released by his and his daughter's money.

She doubled it several times at once, she settled down a little, and said her other ideas for raising money. Mr. Grandet felt that although the idea did not earn much, but fortunately the cost was low, so he agreed to his daughter's idea. .

She ran a chicken farm and used scientific breeding methods to breed chickens.

The chicken tasted no different from chickens raised by ordinary methods, and she immediately made it possible for her family to eat a whole chicken in three days.She tried her best to replenish her mother's body.Let her live a long and happy life.

Even Nanon can eat a whole chicken every month.

When Nanon saw the whole chicken appear on his meal list, his eyes widened in fright.

She persuaded: "Oh Nanon, eat."

Now that she has earned a lot of money, she naturally can't be stingy with Nanon who has served her family loyally for so many years.

Mr. Grandet felt that his authority at home had been challenged after his initial outrage over a whole chicken that he saw every three days on the dining table at home.

But under the persuasion of his daughter, he had no choice but to acquiesce to such a rule.

Except for the youngest son of the notary Crocher's family and Mr. Pompon, the head of the junior court, there is no one who pursues Eugenie Grandet, the only daughter of the richest merchant in the city. Others dared to court her.

Who doesn't know that these two top families in the city want to marry the only daughter who is destined to inherit all the property of the Grandet family in the future?

No matter how fiercely they fought against each other internally, once anyone dared to get their hands on Eugenie, they would immediately unanimously fight to the outside, and strangle those delusional ideas before breaking ground.

The courtesies of the two families seemed to her amusing, almost like a drama performed by real people.But after watching this kind of live-action performance for many years, sooner or later she got tired of it.

If she had a child, the child must not have half the genes provided by either of these two families.

There is no reason.

These two families can't even see the contempt in their own and father's eyes, so stupid to be so virtuous, how can she let her children have half of the genes of such a person?

Even though he was stupid about it, his father had a good relationship with them.There is no other reason, it is easy to use.

When her mother passed away, she got all her mother's inheritance, but she knelt by her mother's death bed, thinking in her heart, if she could exchange the money for her mother, she would naturally be willing to do so without hesitation .

If the money is gone, you can earn it again, but if you don’t have people——

She put a white rose with no thorns in her mother's hand, which seemed even more emaciated against the rose.

Mother couldn't hold the rose in her hand, so she stretched out her hand and let her mother hold the rose.

Tears burst down like a bank.

When she wiped away her tears and listened to Mr. Grandet with red eyes asking her to hand over the custody of her mother's estate to him again, she felt very calm.

This is naturally the best way.

After all, women in this fucking era can’t even keep their dowry. When they marry into the man’s family, the right to use the dowry is in the hands of their husband. The third-party escrow agency receives interest every month.

She is not willing to marry anyone casually. How happy is life before marriage?

She is rich and beautiful, young and beautiful, and a lot of men racked their brains to fight each other in order to get her, the million-dollar furniture behind her.

Sitting on the high platform, she watched the ugly men below who thought they were cool and unrestrained arguing, just like in the animal world watching males fight to the death for the right to mate with females.

How beautiful, how ugly, how good, how dark.

This era is too good to die for, and it's so ugly that it makes people cast aside.

There are opportunities to get gold everywhere, as long as you get the opportunity, you can multiply your money up.

So what if the nouveau riche are despised by the nobles of the upper class?

If her memories of the past are not wrong, not long ago, France was in turmoil a few years before she was born, and more than half of the heads of the nobles were cut off. Even the king of a country could be guillotined. What else can I do? arrived?

If she hadn't been born late, if she hadn't been in Paris, she must have kissed the Saint-Just who said, "He who has not committed a crime cannot be a king."

This guy is an absolute genius!

After the death of Mr. Grandet, her madness and ferocity finally showed their heads.

As soon as Mr. Grandet passed away, she calculated that she had an inheritance of more than 3000 million francs and an annual net income of more than 150 million.

This huge amount of furniture is enough to make anyone crazy, even princes and nobles will chase after her skirt.

After holding the funeral for Mr. Grandet, she left "this sad place" and went to England to relax.

Along the way, she sorted out the messages and contacts left by her father, spent a lot of money, hired maids and servants, and entrusted a trustworthy lawyer to work in a certain place in England that is not too close or too far from London. bought a manor there.

When Mademoiselle Grandet got off the ship and came to the land of England, she had brought six maids, twelve servants, and twenty rough servants to help carry her luggage.

She spent enough money on the way to make people jealous, and not long after that, when she fell asleep with the dressing box left by her mother, Nanon was guarding her door.She murmured under the quilt: "It's also interesting to have a title? The Duchess of Grandet..."

When she said the word, she giggled, but there would no longer be a mother stroking her hair, looking at her lovingly, and no father telling her "you can't laugh like that".

The name of the country of England is so long that Miss Grandet has never heard of the full name of the country, but she thinks one of the advantages of this country is that at this time, as long as you spend a lot of money on the title of this country, can buy.

Under the guidance of caring people, she first bought a few pieces of land, and then donated a large sum of money, making herself an aristocrat in the feudal society—the noble title of Duchess is really her own laughing at the mirror in private for a while.

Nanon, who has a face without salt, followed Mr. Grandet loyally like a hound. Now she followed Miss Grandet loyally, like the incarnation of the three-headed dog in hell, guarding the door behind the gate. Duchess.

If she is willing, none of the royal relatives will refuse to form a friendship with her.

She said that she didn't understand politics, and she didn't have the slightest business acumen, but her wealth snowballed more and more, and her hands were loose, willing to invest in art.

Painter, poet, musician... She even owned a troupe and bought a theater.

When she wore the latest light blue dress in Paris and walked in the ball with pearl jewelry, the thumb-sized pearl necklace made her look beautiful.

In this world, as long as there is a beautiful woman, with gorgeous clothes and beautiful accessories, and backed by money, it is enough for all the men to bow down under their skirts and chase after her desperately.

Miss Grandet lives in seclusion, but once she appears, she must be the focus of the ball.

Nobles, ladies in gentlemen's families, the golden bachelors they yearn for, their eyes light up when they see her.

But she didn't know that the fat in their eyes was a crazy monster. What she was thinking about was not musical operas or the satisfaction of handsome men courting her, but far away on the American continent in the near future. A Civil War would ensue.

There is nothing in this world that is more lucrative than war money.

Tobacco, drugs, weapons.

The profits of these three items are astonishingly high, but if you don’t mention the profits of other things, you won’t know how high their value is.

Even after more than 200 years, there are still women who are willing to undergo the operation of embedding gold threads under the skin in order to retain their youth. In order to retain fair skin, even the shrouds from the thousand-year-old mummies are smashed and applied to their own skin according to the formula. Apply to face.

For the sake of beauty, what can't women do?

The Duchess of Grandet, who owns the artificial pearl cultivation method, said that after she ground the pearls into powder and mixed them with egg white, the whitening effect applied on the face was simply crazy.

In the eyes of ordinary people, such a large and valuable pearl was ground into powder and used by the Duchess to apply to her face.

This kind of luxury, in the eyes of ordinary people, simply smells like money.

But the Duchess is a lover of art.

The money she spends on art and the artists she supports are all not far behind this muse, if not fascinated.

She has earned so much money anyway, what else can she not spend if she wants to spend it?

But the money is getting more and more.

The paintings of living painters are worthless, but the flowers of dead painters are valuable.

Since she can no longer sponsor Mozart, she can sponsor Beethoven as well—

Great musician, she likes music.

Berlioz, Mendelssohn, Chopin, Liszt, Rossini, Bellini, Donizetti, Verdi, Schumann...all famous musicians, she sent money to their door to sponsor them and sent someone to pick them up , invited them to perform in London.

In her last life, she had heard the music performances of the works left by these musicians, but no matter how good the performance was, it couldn't compare to real people, right?

She is also fond of opera.

Mr. Grandet was stingy and never let the duchess enjoy music, and her concept of opera was only what was recorded in the book.

Now that her parents are both dead, no one can control her anymore, so she simply spends money recklessly.

Her opera troupe is the best in Europe. Every time before a new opera is staged, the troupe will set aside a day in her theater to go on stage in full dress for rehearsal.

This rehearsal is more important than the official performance.

Because during the rehearsal, the Duchess Grandet will be there, and she will sit in the middle of her favorite third row, from the beginning to the end.
