Chapter Ninety-Eight: The Debt of Human Affection Must Be Collected
New books, ask for collections, ask for recommendations, ask for Sanjiang tickets, and the third is more present
The brand new year of 1845 came in a blink of an eye, and Zhu Jishi had come to this time and space for more than two years. He made a lot of money, amassed a lot of fame, and got in touch with a few European awesomes, and Zuihou slept with a lot of Europa beauties who could be called the best - and counted his long-cherished wish a hundred and seventy years later.
However, it was not a fate to be dashing in Europa for a lifetime, and from the end of 1844, the strange dream that had plagued Zhu Jishi for many years began to come again frequently.
"Jason ......"
"Jason ......"
A sweet, fragrant voice called his English name.
Zhu Jishi woke up again, his back was covered with cold sweat, the morning sun had already spilled into the room, he looked around, the room was extremely spacious, surrounded by extremely exquisite French furniture.
Almost naked Maria. Clementina was kneeling on the bed, looking at Zhu Jishi with bright sky-blue eyes.
"Jason, you've been having nightmares lately...... What's going on? β
Zhu Jishi smiled, took the beautiful woman into his arms, and kissed her smooth and delicate cheek. "I think it's time for me to leave."
"Leave?" Maria hesitated for a moment and asked, "Are you leaving Europe?" β
Zhu Jishi nodded, groaning and not speaking.
This trip to Hong Kong can be described as unpredictable. From now on, I will not take the business road, not do learning, but join the politics and the army, and embark on a road to save the country that I am completely unfamiliar with.
How many catties and taels he has, Zhu Jishi is very clear, he can mix well in Europe, except for some luck, he has mastered the knowledge of medicine and chemistry that is more than 170 years ahead of this era. His status and wealth are all earned by the knowledge of natural sciences. Politics and the military, rebellion and rebellion are all studies in the field of social sciences, and the degree of danger is far greater than that of business and study.
"Maria, before I leave Europe, I want to see Charles. Bonaparte said goodbye to him. Zhu Jishi said.
Shire. Bonaparte made a cameo appearance as Zhu Jishi's secretary for a while, but he was more like Zhu Jishi's teacher, teaching him the fallacy of "Bonapartism", the core of which is to rely on the army to establish a nation-state, implement a constitutional monarchy, and use the state's liliang to promote the development of capitalist industry and commerce, while also taking into account the interests of the working people -- if Zhu Jishi studied politics and history in later generations, he would know that this "Bonapartism" and Prussia's "dynastic socialism" (Bismarck's policy, It is the precursor of National Socialism), all of which are "concession policies" implemented by the inevitable bourgeoisie in order to reconcile social contradictions, and are also a transitional stage in the development of capitalist constitutionalism in countries with strong feudal traditions......
After spending some time with Zhu Jishi, Charles. Napoleon suddenly disappeared one day, and Isabel. Countess Deneuve together. The public statement is that the countess fell in love, fell in love with a poor boy from France, and then both went to the United States to start a new life. However, Zhu Jishi knew about Charles. It was impossible for Napoleon to leave Europe, not even England, but to hide somewhere and secretly carry out the cause of overthrowing the Orleans dynasty in France.
"Yes, Charles. Bonaparte also wants to meet you before you leave Europe, and he wants to pay back the favors he owes you. β
"Owe me a favor? He's not the emperor of France yet, is he? Zhu Jishi was slightly stunned, and said in his heart: "Is it a little too early for Napoleon III to return the favor now?" If you wait for him to become the emperor of France......"
"Jason, you are not the emperor of China now, if you want to sit in this position, it is best to accept his help."
Maria paused for a moment, looked at Zhu Jishi seriously, and said, "Jason, you and Charles. Bonaparte was now in the opposition, and did not have to consider the national interests of the Qing and France. Bonaparte can help you as much as he can. But once you ascend to the throne of China and France, the interests of the country must take precedence over personal friendship, and whether he can help you or not depends entirely on the interests of the French Empire! β
"Well, I know, when the time comes, I will also put China's national interests first." Zhu Jishi took a breath and looked at Maria with a complicated gaze, "Maria, what are your plans?" β
"I'm French, and I always will be." Maria. Clementina lowered her voice, "I will not go to Asia with you now, I may be your princess in the future - but I will always be French, please do not forget." β
"Good! If possible, I would like to be with you in Guangzhou zaijian. Zhu Jishi sincerely admires this politician in bed, although Maria's private life is too extravagant, but she is a heroine among women, and she has indeed fulfilled her promise during this time and is "loyal" to herself.
"Me too." Maria didn't act like a little daughter, she just kissed Zhu Jishi on the cheek and got out of bed, opened the dresser drawer, took out a check that had been filled in the numbers a long time ago, and handed it to Zhu Jishi. "This is the Β£50,000 I promised you for saving Louie. The life of Bonaparte Bixia. β
Zhu Jishi took the check and said in his heart: "This favor, Maria repaid it for the Bonaparte family." β
Maria said solemnly: "If you and Charles in the future. At the same time as Napoleon ascended the throne, I could accompany you in Asia - enter your **, like a princess of the Eastern Empire, and I would bring a dowry of at least Β£1,000,000. β
Earn a top French lady ** and Β£1 million to get! However, Zhu Jishi just smiled faintly, there is no free lunch on Shijie, let alone Maria. Clementina such a "lunch"! This slut has just said it herself - she will always be a Frenchman! In other words, she can come to her side for the benefit of the French Empire and give herself 1 million pounds, but she must give the French Empire a corresponding return!
And the reason why she adopted this method may also be related to the current national strength of France, France does not have Liliang to openly dig into the corner of the British wall, but a French woman who is carried away by Aiqing wants to throw herself into Zhu Jishi's arms, and she has to stick Zhu Jishi upside down, and the British Empire is not easy to ask......
"Β£1 million, uh, I'm tempted to say it." Zhu Jishi's tone changed to frivolity again, "It's just that compared to your body, what is the million pounds?" β
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and pulled a smooth beautiful woman down on the bed, and then pounced on it.
β¦β¦
"Jason, that's what I'm giving you in return."
In the afternoon of the same day, Zhu Jishi was arrested by Maria. Clementina was led to a secluded villa on the outskirts of London, where she met the secluded Charles. Bonaparte.
"It's ......" took Charles. When Bonaparte handed him the piece of paper, it was not a check, but a list of lists, and Zhu Jishi whispered: "JΓ©rΓ΄me. Peel, Henry. Reye, Joseph. Daerlon, Louis. Mercer, Henry. Dvikne...... Louie, who are they? β
"They were all great soldiers, and each of them had followed Emperor Bixia on his expeditions to the east and west, and after 1815 he had served as a military adviser to Ali Pasha in Egypt." Shire. Bonaparte said solemnly, "They will all go to Hong Kong with you, each of them is the material to be a general, if they are willing to work for the Orleans dynasty, they are already generals now!" β
"Haode, I'll use them well." Zhu Jishixin said that Napoleon III repaid his favor with 5 old guys? It's better to be Maria, this girl!
Shire. Bonaparte seemed to see Zhu Jishi's doubt, sneered, and continued: "JΓ©rΓ΄me. Peel used to be the battalion commander of the Old Guard, and the line infantry he trained was the most haode in the whole shijie! Henry. Reye was an artillery expert, and the emperor's artillery was the strongest; Joseph. Daeron and Louis. Mercer was a cavalryman, a light cavalryman, a cuirassiers, and as for Henry. De Vikine, who was the commander of the light infantry, was also extremely good. When it's time to leave England, Maria will bring them to join you. β
Shire. Bonaparte raised his head and said thoughtfully: "The British will only help you train lieutenants, but ensigns, lieutenants and captains cannot support a truly strong army, you need generals!" And until your own generals are produced, you can only rely on the five of them. β
