In order to serve His Majesty the Emperor, Marshal Arshir Baraj Dilier and others, in light of the fact that the British Government had just heard that the Imperial "Glory" armored ship had entered the substantive stage of design and manufacture, the British immediately mobilized all the technical personnel of the seven naval factories and eight civilian shipyards to intensify their discussions on the fact that they were planning to design and build armored frigates with 36 guns. biquge.info starters, of course, they came prepared, and at the same time, they have not forgotten to solve problems for the emperor's majesty's policy of "stimulating domestic demand". After all, the French people, who are eager to live a stable life, have pinned all their hopes on his nephew, just like Napoleon the Great, who supported them back then.

As a result, the military minister Saint Arnaud first mentioned the unspeakable heart of the emperor's majesty. Last year, in order to get rid of the dilemma of having to rely on imports for new guns and shells, Napoleon III promised to encourage French explosives experts and enthusiasts to start research on new gunpowders. In Q846, the Italian chemist Sobre used half of glycerin to drop into a mixture of q parts nitric acid and two parts of concentrated sulfuric acid to produce nitroglycerin for the first time, and it was picked up by French ammunition experts and a wide range of enthusiasts.

Knowing that things backfired, the in-depth research work on the vigorous nitroglycerin explosives not only made no progress. There were also frequent accidents, which directly led to the deaths of many valuable French ammunition experts, and also caused many innocent people. What's more, in pursuit of the coveted bounty, the Valadin brothers, the owners of the chemical factory in Lyon's Q family, did not know what means they used, not only to bring the nitroglycerin explosives they produced to Paris safely at the slightest vibration, which would produce a violent explosion at the slightest vibration. They also proudly demonstrated how safe and reliable the nitroglycerin explosives they produced in front of the military inspection team. How and how to absolutely meet the requirements of the military for mass production.

Just when the military was so excited by the Valadin brothers that they almost jumped to their feet, a big explosion occurred in Leon. The Valadin brothers' chemical plant was reduced to rubble in an instant. Dozens of workers were spared, and hundreds of surrounding residents were also affected. The Valadin brothers, "villains who plotted to extract money", were sent to the gallows. In desperation, Napoleon III, in the melancholy of "for the sake of the science and honor of the fatherland", had no choice but to take back the former decree at the same time, and also issued a strict decree prohibiting the production of nitroglycerin explosives in France. \\23hh.cc\\

The lesson is cruel, and the tuition fees that should be paid have been paid. The French Empire can't just immerse itself in this kind of quagmire and not be able to pull its legs, right? Isn't it just q explosives, why buy it. The most important thing is that we buy this thing in order to ensure that our scientists and people are no longer in danger of counterfeit and shoddy products. Compared with Q bullets and shells, after all, the weight of explosives does not occupy an absolute position, and the rise of Q ammunition factories drives the large-scale demand for steel and non-ferrous metals, which is a big problem directly related to the employment and livelihood of a large number of Q. Of course, this view is also applicable to the development of torpedo boats and large warships. In terms of the development of cutting-edge technology, we have a big gap with the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. No one can admit it.

Saint-Arnault thinks. In the face of advanced technology, the French Empire should and must have the courage to admit its own shortcomings. Gan middle school student. The current cooperation is just a good opportunity for learning, and if you don't cooperate, I'm afraid you won't even have a chance to learn. Don't be afraid of suffering losses now, who can guarantee that we will not get the true meaning from it after a period of time, and then completely turn what we have learned into localization?

Saint-Arnault was completely unimpressed by Chancellor of the Exchequer's ensuing cry of poverty. First of all, he accused the empire of being too conservative in its fiscal policy, and in order to engage in steady economic development, the empire's banks strictly controlled external credit on the grounds of fear of risks, completely forgetting the basic principle that money can make money, which led to the current emptiness of the treasury. But this is absolutely not an excuse for the military to be prosecuted for this. There are many troubles in Europe that need to be taken care of by His Majesty the Emperor of France, and there are Q friends on the other side of the Strait, and the empire will never be able to do without Q strong armed forces.

Just when the opinions for and against were evenly matched, Bourblon also spoke, and in response to the various worries about the future raised by the opponents, Burbulon QQ patiently cracked it for everyone. He used his many years of personal experience and what he had seen and heard, so that those opponents who were not familiar with the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom government at all knew the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom government, and he asserted that the French Empire could strictly abide by the alliance agreement and truly achieve "friends and brothers" with the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom government, and the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom government would not only not make any halfway moves, but also the kind of beautiful future that the empire would get would be unimaginable to anyone.

Listening to the fierce arguments of his ministers over the past few days, Napoleon III could not make up his mind. It's no wonder that after all, it's better to put something in someone else's pocket than to hold it in your own pocket.

In the end, the Minister of the Interior, Morni, is close to his Emperor Xià, and he can better understand the emperor's mentality of being afraid of beating wolves at this time. He has long since discovered the great economic value contained in the Q-series of large warships, torpedo boats, and guns and shells. According to the information he had, the new type of explosives produced by the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom were now well-known all over the world, and merchants engaged in mining and road construction industries in various countries would rather break their heads than rush to buy them, thus causing the export of explosives from the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom to be in short supply, and the price of explosives to rise sharply. Not to mention the mouth-watering ships and guns. Even the fools who wander around the streets of Paris know that there is no one in this world who can make more money than the resale of arms, except for the sale of medicines.

Therefore, while the Chancellor of the Exchequer Fuld was shaking his empty hands again and claiming with a sad face that he was short of money, Morni gave his Emperor His Majesty a Q antidote. At the moment, the common people are too poor. It was clearly not a wise move to increase the tax burden, as it would only make people who were already a little sad about the empire complain even more. The only solution is to fully mobilize the power of patriotic businessmen. They pay for it.

The idea of Mornidi had been in Napoleon III's mind for a long time. The idea is good. But it is difficult to do, and now the major conglomerates are eyeing the vigorous railroads of the United States. If you don't get into the tide of stocks and bonds in the UK and your country, and there are so many great opportunities to make easy money, who would be willing to do this kind of trading that requires both strength and fear?

But Molney's idea came out, and Chancellor of the Exchequer Fuld immediately abandoned his original sad face. Immediately picked up Mornidi's stubble. He first expressed Napoleon III's worries directly, believing that there are only a few consortia left in France at the moment that really have living money in hand. In addition, the projects we are talking about now are highly classified national defense projects, so we cannot arbitrarily give them to others. In this way, there are even fewer consortia that are worthy of this important task. It wasn't until he had a nervous breakdown on Napoleon III's poor story that Fulder turned his tone and suggested that he thought he was the absolute best candidate - the Schneider family.

Fuld spoke Q out. Molney understood the true intention of this Q who was crying poor and crying endlessly. Hey. This hasn't gotten anywhere yet, and you're in a hurry to share the fat, aren't you? As Home Secretary. He was all too familiar with the so-called Schneider family, the brothers Adolf Schneider and Eugène Schneider.

These two fellows were devout believers in the utopian socialism advocated by the Frenchman Fourier and the Englishman Owen, who advocated the abolition of private property, the establishment of public ownership of property, equal rights and common labor, and the experimentation in various places, and finally the bloody blood. In accordance with their grandfather's so-called "enlightened reform" program, Eugène-Schneider reduced the working hours of workers to 12 in their own Krosser factory, and it was reported that the workers had eight days of paid vacation each year, and their wages were appropriately higher than in other factories. In order to buy people's hearts, they also set up factory shops to sell consumer goods cheaper than ordinary market prices to workers, opened factory children's schools, kindergartens and nurseries, and established workers' mutual aid savings associations.

Morney still vividly remembers that a Parisian journalist who had probably received a bribe from the Schneider brothers wrote after visiting the factory in Croso, "God, here I don't quarrel or fight, the factory is like a philanthropist, and the workers are like his favorite children." They were full of admiration for their father and had no complaints. This is absolutely not possible anywhere else in France. ”

While Eugène Schneider was engaged in these middle names, that Adolf Schneider was desperately trying to make enough connections in both the banking and political circles. Adolf Schneider not only does business with almost all the big banks in Europe, but this Fuld in front of him is the biggest prey in the political world that Adolf Schneider has already hunted. The relationship between the two is so close that it is difficult to describe, so that the Schneider brothers have begun to control the supply of raw materials for the French team.

"The Schneider family can't do it," Morney would not have made such a big bargain fall into the hands of Fulder. In order to break Fulder's dream in Q Xiazi, Molney simply played a fatal "trump card": "Everyone knows that the Schneider family has a deep relationship with the British banking community, and the news of our construction of the Glorious armored ship can be learned by the British so quickly, and according to the information I have, it involves their Schneider family." ”

"Slander! Completely baseless slander! Fulder's face flushed, as if Morni had written something other than himself.

Molney didn't go on arguing with Fuld because that was enough. He just glanced at the annoyed and angry Fulder, and bowed respectfully to Napoleon III, "Your Majesty, the real reliable and powerful company is Citroën." ”
