I Am the Crown Prince in France

Chapter 50 Come to my bowl

DuBois, in particular, is older and knows that the organization, management, training and logistics of the army are the foundation for improving combat effectiveness. He has taken out a pen and paper, repeating in a low voice the content of the military reforms that the Crown Prince just said, and Copy it down quickly.

Develop a recruitment system for the whole of France, complete recruitment and pension regulations, and formulate regulations...

Establish the French Ministry of Military Affairs, gradually eliminate local garrison troops, and unify the selection, assessment, and promotion systems of the French army...

Improving the status of meritorious soldiers and making supreme honor the highest pursuit of the military...

Build a national-level ordnance production and equipment system, encourage the research of new weapons, and accelerate the use of new weapons...

Opening a military hospital...

The more he wrote, the more excited he became. If these measures could be implemented, France would surely have an invincible army capable of defeating all enemies. The shame of being forced to sign the Paris Peace Treaty will be completely wiped away, and everything France lost will be regained!

His father died on the battlefield in Lignitz during the Seven Years' War, when he was only 8 years old.

He only remembered that France was defeated in the war and the whole country was shrouded in gloom. His father's death did not win him any honor. On the contrary, there were mean people who laughed at the incompetence of the French soldiers in front of him.

He also knew that he, a small major, could not influence France's military reform at all, but he could hand over these precious ideas to experts like Berthier for further research!

From the corner of his eye, Joseph saw Dubois' serious and excited look while transcribing. He felt that the fire was almost ready. He smiled like a little fox stealing chickens: Mr. Major seems to agree with this military reform plan. I don't know. Would you be interested in assisting me in moving this forward?”

I am willing to do it for Your Highness... Dubois said half-way before he hesitated, It's just that I'm not very good at this, so I'm afraid I will disappoint His Highness.

Joseph thought to himself, then find me people who are good at it, such as Mr. Chief of General Staff, but he still smiled and said: You have rich practical experience, which is exactly what is needed to improve the military reform plan. To be honest, You said that I am organizing people to conduct research on military theory, and I hope you can help me.

Dubois immediately raised his head and stood at attention and said: It is my lifelong honor to follow you!

Joseph nodded happily, looked at Andre with a smile, and said in a friendly tone: Mr. Lieutenant, why didn't you inherit the glory of your father's generation and continue to serve in the Forbidden Army?

Reluctance and loneliness flashed in Andre's eyes: Your Highness, I have always had a great flame called love in my chest. Back then, because of my pursuit and persistence of this flame, I burned some people... In the end, I went Soissons Cavalry Battalion.”

Joseph said: Then are you willing to serve here?

Of course! Andre said loudly, unable to conceal his surprise and surprise, The title of the Davout family was awarded by His Majesty the old King, and loyalty to the royal family is the Davout family's oath! I will become His Highness's most loyal soldier!

Joseph also looked at the two people in front of him with great joy. With their two lines, the two great players Berthier and Davout would come to his bowl sooner or later.

The focus of all Parisian talk these days is the new Paris Angels stores.

They couldn't help but pay attention to this - three new stores were being prepared at the same time, like three whirlpools on the sea, continuously sucking in wood, glass, paint, copperware, etc. from all over Paris.

The top craftsmen in Paris are also gathered in Paris Angel's shop. They are all exhausted, but their faces are full of fanatical excitement.

In this week, they made more money than in the usual three months!

Every day, the stewards of Paris Angels would prepare four meals a day, deliver them to them on time, wait for them to finish eating attentively, and then politely ask them to continue working.

As for the meals, there are fried meats, corn mixed with butter, white bread, and tomato and vegetable soup. The taste is so fragrant and tempting that you can eat as much as you want.

None of the craftsmen complained that they were tired, and no one wanted to take a rest. If anyone asked them to take a break at this time, they would scold him without hesitation. That was four times the remuneration! Stopping for even a second is an insult to your wallet!

At night, a large number of oil lamps will be lit inside and outside the store, illuminating it as bright as day, and the shift craftsmen will take over and continue working.

There were even people in good health who set a record of working three days and two nights in a row and received a full 28 livres in overtime pay.

Oh, there are extra fees for overtime work! It's incredible! When the craftsmen heard that this was the crown prince's request, they prayed for him almost every day.

Some people in later generations always like to say that Westerners advocate freedom and enjoy life, and have not liked to work overtime since ancient times. In fact, France in the 18th century was very busy. It was normal to work 14 hours a day in the factory. As long as you were paid, you could work 20 hours. Hours don’t matter.

What Joseph didn't expect at the beginning was that his efforts to catch up with the opening of the franchise store would bring unexpected gains - those Parisian citizens who had nothing to do would regard watching the construction of the new store as a form of entertainment, causing the popularity of Paris Angels to continue to rise. If there were hot searches in this era, the topic of Paris Angels would occupy the top ten.

It's no wonder that there are too few entertainment projects in this era. Such a luxurious store decorated 24 hours a day is a rare novelty.

The little boy who was begging in the alley behind the Angel store in Paris, with his sister and four other homeless children, was busy among the crowd with several piles of chairs.

He listened to Joseph's advice and started a chair rental business. During this time, he made a lot of silver coins and his team expanded to six people.

He now rents a house, and he and his sister no longer have to go hungry. He even plans to save some money and spend a few hours every day learning to read.

time flies.

Brent, general manager of Paris Angel Company, stood on the Boulevard Saint-Denis and looked at the luxurious and elegant new Paris Angel store in front of him, feeling a sense of infinite pride and accomplishment in his heart.

In seven days, only seven days, the new store was decorated. He led the company's employees and countless craftsmen to create this miracle!

Of course, the renovation cost of 20,000 livres also played an important role.

There are two more similar stores in the West and North districts of Paris, which will be completed today.

At the same time, there is also a franchise store waiting to open in Reims, 30 miles away. However, due to some accidents, the company's new store there still needs two days to complete.

In other words, Paris Angel currently has five stores that are open for business, even stores as far away as Marseille and Bordeaux. According to the news sent back by his men yesterday, the renovations will be completed by the end of the month at most.

At the same time, there was a huge crowd in front of the Paris City Hall, with four to five hundred people stretching their necks, anxiously waiting for the moment when the shares of Paris Angel Company were officially launched.

Well, because of the Bubble Act, this was the temporary stock exchange chosen by Joseph.
