To get the support of the Banque de France, a Marit family is not enough.

Napoleon also needed more hole cards.

The Marit family is followed by the Hottinger family, a Swiss banking family. In the second half of the 18th century, Conrad Hottinger came to Paris to act as the French agent of the Swiss bankers in Zurich, where his main business was to provide debt solutions and financing services to the French royal family. Hottinger had close ties with the early leaders of the French Revolution, including the later power-wielding Congressman Talleyrand. During the Jacobin Reign of Terror, Hottinger fled to the United States with Talleyrand, returning to Paris in 1798 to reorganize his banking business. He was made a baron for his work in financing Napoleon's coup d'état, and was appointed to the Board of Directors of the Banque de France.

Conrad's grandson, William Hottinger, is now second only to Guérôme Maritte in the Banque de France.

In the articles of association of the Banque de France, only the 200 largest shareholders have voting rights. The entire Banque de France issued 182,500 shares, each with a par value of 1,000 francs. Of its more than 30,000 shareholders, 200 shareholders with voting rights are eligible to elect 12 members of the board of directors. Among the 200 largest shareholders, there are 78 corporate or institutional shareholders and 122 individual shareholders. These 200 shareholders basically belong to the same group of people, that is, the 44 main families that control the Banque de France. And the seats held by these families can be continued.

Hottinger is joined by Rothschild and the Rice Wax family, but as Maritt said, if he enlists the support of two of the big families, the board will pass unanimously.

No one in the conference room had a gloomy face, and cigarettes rising from the cigarette holders filled the office.

They are all worried about the future of the bank.

However, the Marit family was unexpectedly absent from the meeting.

However, William Hottinger ignored it and signaled that the meeting would proceed as scheduled.

He was about to speak, but the door to the conference room was unexpectedly opened.

This meeting, which originally belonged to the top management of the Banque de France, was made wonderful by the accidental intrusion of one person. Everyone looked at the door, looking at the man in front of them, who was less than 1.7 meters tall.

Hottinger glanced at it and said dissatisfiedly, "Your Excellency Marit, you should know how important this board meeting is to the Banque de France, right?" ”

Maritt, who was in a wheelchair, said in a hoarse voice, "Ahem...... Of course I know, otherwise why I'm here. ”

Hottinger frowned and said, "So who is this person?" Why did you bring him in. This meeting involves the future fate of the Banque de France, and no one is qualified to stand here. ”

Napoleon stood up from behind Marit, bent down slightly respectfully, and said directly, "I am Napoleon Bonaparte, Your Excellency Hottinger. ”

Hearing the name Napoleon, all eyes were focused on the man in front of them. Someone in the seat remembered the rumors that had been boiling in Paris lately, and let out a small exclamation.

Hottinger spread his hands and asked the other party, "So what?" This is not your meeting Your Excellency Napoleon, your First Reich is long gone. ”

Napoleon sneered, "I stand here today, and I have no interest in the future of the Banque de France. Because while you're still thinking about how to keep your poor possessions, I'm thinking about how to keep the country. France should not be smashed into the hands of a bunch of mediocrities, especially the republicans you are prepared to support. ”

When James Rothschild heard Napoleon's words, he couldn't help but look puzzled. These are the contents of the board's secret discussions, why would he, an outsider, know.

"Do you really think that you look like Napoleon and that you are the savior of France? I don't want to think about how ridiculous this lie is, how long has the emperor been dead? The bones are rotten! Not all short people are called Napoleon. ”

A snickerer erupted in the conference room, but Rothschild's rudeness was seen by Rothschild. A good businessman will not rashly offend a challenger who does not know the depths, but there is a deep relationship of interest between the Hottinger family and the Shelid family, and the other party must have already known the details of the other party, so he dares to show toughness and unscrupulousness.

He watched the scene in silence.

"It doesn't matter if I'm Napoleon or not, but I want to tell you something. The republicans had no will to resist, and even though nearly 300,000 French troops were in the hands of the other side, they still chose to surrender. What is the price of surrender? It was the payment of war reparations, and the money was taken out of the pockets of everyone here. Let's not forget that the current Interim Defense Government has no money. If you think that supporting a government that is destined to make you pay high war reparations, but if you think that it is easy for the Banque de France to pay five billion francs in reparations, you can forget what I just said today, even if I have not been to the Banque de France. ”

Napoleon concludes by adding, "A group of short-sighted capitalists think that a bill will kill them? Nor do you look at the rebellion of a group of Parisian mobs, who go for more than just a little profit, and maybe even like the Jacobins in Paris, where the capitalists hang their whole heads on the door panels. ”

After saying that, turn around and leave, never drag mud and water.

Marit tried to reach out and grab Napoleon's sleeve, but did not expect to give him a hint of a look.

As if he understood something, Maritt's hand naturally drooped. Waiting for Napoleon's next step.

No matter where he is, he will always be the constant protagonist.

No matter how arrogant the capitalists at the beginning were, they are now in a state of being speechless.

Then he stood up in the eyes of everyone and walked in the direction of the door of the conference room. Napoleon did not look back, just threw a word.

"When the Prussian wolf bit the Titan's toe, he foolishly thought he could swallow the giant. But they hadn't really felt the wrath of the gods yet. ”

When Napoleon reached the gate, he paused slightly, but did not look back.

Behind him, William Hottinger already showed hesitation, but he really didn't want to bear the price of this high venture investment, and the Shellier family couldn't explain it to them.

"France is not a 'gnome' like me, he is a giant of imperial wars."

"Wait, Your Excellency Napoleon."

As soon as Napoleon finished speaking, the members of the board of directors of James Rothschild stood up and stopped him as he was about to go out.

Both Hottinger and Mi Wax's eyes were focused on Rothschild's.

The other party said to Napoleon in a sincere tone, "Perhaps we in the Rothschilds can talk to you about this deal, Your Excellency Napoleon." ”
