Make France Great Again

Chapter 664: Marshal Saint Arnault returns to the west

After Mocar returned to the room, Queen Augusta asked Mocar if a guest from the Banque de France had arrived.

Mocar's face was slightly stunned, then nodded and told the Queen Augusta that the Count of Bemini, the president of the Bank of France, had been waiting for a long time at the Duinleuri Palace and was now being arranged by him at the Duinle. In a room in the Ligong, Her Majesty the Queen, do you want to meet him!

"Then invite President Bemini over here!" Queen Augusta replied to Mokar.

"Yes!" Mokar bowed to Queen Augusta and left the room.

Queen Augusta, who was alone in the room, yawned and muttered to herself, "I didn't expect that a small Luxembourg bank could affect so many people!"

After a while, Count Bemini, president of the Banque de France, and Mokar appeared in the room.

"Count Bemini, please forgive me for not being able to get up to meet you!" Queen Augusta, who was sitting on the sofa, pointed to her stomach and said to Earl Bemini.

"It is a great honor for Your Majesty to take the time to meet with me!" Count Bemini hurriedly bowed and saluted to Queen Augusta.

At the invitation of Queen Augusta, Count Bemini sat on the sofa opposite Augusta.

Empress Augusta pretended not to know the Count of Beminis, if there was a thorny problem in the Bank of France that he could not handle, so that he was so busy that he made time to go to the Tuinlerey Palace.

"Thanks to the grace of the two majesties, I was ordered to take charge of the Banque de France! Now the Banque de France is following the direction of His Majesty Emperor Jerome Bonaparte to precisely regulate the issuance of bank notes, so that every bank note can be issued in the Circulating in the market...Although there were some unsatisfactory small twists and turns during the issuance of bank notes, the overall situation was relatively stable!" Count Bemini responded to Queen Augusta in a standard official tone.

"Since the Banque de France is fine, then Mr. Bemini, why are you suddenly visiting the Tuinlery Palace today?" Queen Augusta asked in a calm tone.

"Your Majesty, the purpose of my trip is for the Bank of Luxembourg!" Count Bemini responded to Queen Augusta with a serious face.

"The Bank of Luxembourg?" Queen Augusta pretended not to understand what Count Bemini said. "What happened to the Bank of Luxembourg? Could it be that it has a business dispute with the Bank of France?"

Queen Augusta's speech made the Count of Bemini smell a dangerous breath. He remembered that the manager Mokar secretly told him that Queen Augusta was talking with the Perel brothers.

Could it be that the Perel brothers have succeeded now!

Thinking of this, Count Bemini couldn't help but get nervous.

If the Perel brothers really want to take the Bank of Luxembourg, then the Banque de France is likely to usher in a formidable enemy.

Don't look at the fact that the Perel brothers are also a member of the board of directors of the Banque de France and a member of the interest group, but the interest groups are not necessarily united. There may be two banks sitting on the board of the Banque de France, Outside the Banque de France are mortal enemies, not to mention the vastly different status between members.

The Perel brothers' status at the Banque de France was merely higher than that of ordinary board members, far less than that of Fuld and the others.

Once the Perel brothers win the Bank of Luxembourg, they can get rid of the Bank of France alone. The reason why the Bank of France is above many banks is because the Bank of France itself has a monopoly on the issuance and redemption of bank notes in France. right back.

Without these two monopolies, the Banque de France would be nothing more than a slightly larger bank.

To make matters worse, if the Perel brothers did take over the Bank of Luxembourg, it would inevitably cause a tear within the Banque de France.

Some bankers with only voting rights will surely rally around the Perel brothers and cheer for the Bank of Luxembourg.

At that time, the entire Banque de France team will not be easy to lead.

This is absolutely bad news for Count Bemini, who has been president of the Banque de France for less than a year.

After briefly weighing the pros and cons, Count Bemini decided to have a straight-to-the-point talk with Her Majesty the Queen. He asked with a solemn expression: "Your Majesty, please forgive my boldness! If the issue of the Bank of Luxembourg is not handled properly, it may cause the entire French financial community to become aroused. turmoil!"

"Mr. Bemini, are you threatening me?" Queen Augusta also showed a very serious face and asked Count Bemini coldly.

"Your Majesty, I'm not threatening you! As long as you want, you can immediately dismiss me as president of the Bank of France!" Facing Augusta's hostility, Count Bemini remained calm and calm towards Queen Augusta. Said: "But I implore you, don't let the Bank of Luxembourg become the culprit for tearing the Bank of France!"

"Mr. Bemini, the Bank of Luxembourg is nothing but a bank worth millions of francs! I am curious how it can tear apart the behemoth of the Bank of France!" Queen Augusta said to Count Bemini.

"Your Majesty, although the Bank of Luxembourg is small, it has all the functions of the Bank of France! It can be said that the Bank of Luxembourg itself is a small French bank! What the Bank of Luxembourg lacks is only a large-scale capital injection, capital It's not a problem for France now!" Count Bemini explained to Queen Augusta.

"So, what does the Bank of Luxembourg do to tear the Bank of France apart?" Queen Augusta asked the Count of Bemini.

“The Luxembourg Bank doesn’t need to do anything, she just needs to open a branch in Paris and then find some bigger banks to endorse the Luxembourg Bank! That way those big banks can do what they want with Luxembourg Bank What it can't do!" Bemini said to Queen Augusta, "The Bank of Luxembourg can sell bank notes on its own, and it also has the right to redeem discounted notes! Many banks can bypass the Banque de France and sell bank notes. .

Two banks and two different bank notes are bound to cause confusion in the entire French financial market, and those bankers who originally only had voting rights on the board of directors will flock to the Bank of Luxembourg!

At that time, the entire French financial world will be torn in two parts.

Once the French financial system is shaken, then the whole of France..."

Speaking of which, Bemini remained silent.

After all, the reason why His Majesty the Emperor was able to sit in this position was because of the large-scale financial turmoil that occurred at that time.

Now that the emperor is sitting on this issue, he will never allow financial problems like the ones before.

Sure enough, after Count Bemini explained the harm caused by the Bank of Luxembourg, Queen Augusta's face turned slightly pale.

"Mr. Bemini, I will tell Your Majesty exactly what you said! Everything will be decided by Your Majesty!" Queen Augusta replied to Count Bemini.

"Yes!" Count Beminis left the Tuinlely Palace immediately.

Not long after the departure of Count Bemini, Queen Augusta once again issued an order to Mocar, asking him to immediately go to the French Academy of Sciences to find several academicians majoring in economics.

After receiving the order, Mokar quickly found several academicians for Queen Augusta. Queen Augusta asked the academicians some questions about banking and finance, and asked whether the issuance of two bank notes would be correct. social impact

Although the answers of the academicians are different, their core point is that the two kinds of bank notes will not have much impact, but the two kinds of over-issued bank notes will have a great impact, and the over-issuance of bank notes will lead to Bank notes depreciated rapidly, causing inflation.

French finance can also cause massive turmoil.

After listening to the academician's elaboration, Augusta had some ideas, and then she thanked the academy and ordered Mokar to send the academician back safely.

At the same time, the French military hospital in Constantinople, thousands of miles away from Paris.

Since Virnia led a medical team to Sevastopol and established the Sevastopol Military District Hospital together with Nightingale.

There are also fewer and fewer patients in the hospital of the Constantinople Military District. Except for a few patients with relatively bad conditions (mainly psychological problems, they need to go to Constantinople to change their mood), most of the patients The patients are treated directly in Sevastopol.

Gradually, the hospital of Constantinople Military Region, which originally assumed the task of medical treatment, became a "psychological rehabilitation center for middle and senior officers" (jokingly called), UU Reading www. uukanshu.comMany medical staff were also seconded to Sevastopol Hospital.

There were more than 600-700 medical staff in the entire Constantinople Military District Hospital at its peak, but it has been reduced to more than 100 now.

However, even though the number of people in the Constantinople Military District Hospital has been greatly reduced, the basic functions it undertakes have remained largely unchanged.

Because in this group of hospitals, there is still a big man who is dying.

He is the Marshal of the French Empire and the Marshal of Saint Arnault, Count of Sevastopol.

At this time, he has long been tortured by the pain, with a bloated and hot body, haggard face, sunken and dull eyes... The once majestic commander has disappeared, and only a weak one is left, as if a gust of wind can blow it down of patients.

And the reason why he is still here to hold on and not fall down is that in order to be able to witness the final victory with his own eyes, he wants to accept it as the commander-in-chief.

However, now he obviously can't hold it anymore, the pain in his abdomen has crushed all his will, and now he doesn't want to support it anymore.

so tired! So be it! Then take a break! Leave the rest to His Majesty!

Marshal Saint Arno gradually closed his eyes.
