Downstream along the banks of the Seine, on a hill with a flattened roof of willow trees, there is a stately villa, all white marble and red brick on three sides, with a tall roof and a fireplace with slender smoke windows that stand out on the wide lawn that extends to the meadow in the distance, which is connected with the rolling hills.

This extravagant villa reveals a noble and elegant temperament, especially the exquisitely decorated carriage parked at the door, which reveals the noble status of the owner and guests of this villa.

In response to the Interim Government's nine-hour work bill, the Sherids adopted a form of non-violent non-cooperation, refusing to recognize the new government and likewise not contributing a penny to the Provisional Government.

The capitalists' pursuit of profit is always more important than the safety of the country, and even if the iron hooves of Prussia are about to reach Paris, they can use the interests of one franc to live or die.

With the exception of large families such as Rothschild and Beheyer, the rest of the aristocracy relied on land income. From Napoleon's Second Empire, however, the industrial bourgeoisie gradually amassed a great deal of wealth, and this year the Sheridd family earned 1.5 million francs a year, twice as much as the Duke of La Rocheffoucault, now the richest landowner in France.

A representative of the industrial bourgeoisie came forward and tried to unite with the forces of the old landlord aristocracy against the regime of the French Provisional Government.

In the lavishly decorated conference room, the old aristocracy did not feel much pressure, they were at most a swarm of flies looking for the smell of money, trying to get a piece of the Provisional Government's bad luck. As for the nine-hour work system, it is not them who suffer the most anyway.

The Sheridd family, on the other hand, used weapons against the new government of national defense, refused to buy the war bonds that the Provisional Government was preparing to issue, because in addition to the war loans provided by the Banque de France, the Provisional Government needed to obtain funds to sustain the long-term struggle in various ways.

Napoleon actually wanted to use the war bond to shear the wool of the industrial capitalists, so he used the nine-hour day to force compromise. However, the Sheridd family took a fierce attitude of resistance to the Provisional Government by believing that the Bank of France was standing behind them.

Whoever succumbs first will admit defeat.

During the Second French Empire, Napilon III adopted various policies to support the rapid development of industry, and Shelid was also a beneficiary of the French Industrial Revolution.

Why should my private property be used to support the Provisional Government? If the war is lost, it is enough to change the government, as long as it does not hinder the primitive bloody accumulation of capital, the life of the capitalist is the same.

"Ladies and gentlemen, now we have to come together closely to deal with the pressure that the Interim Government is putting on us. Both the aristocracy and the up-and-coming factory owners should be aware that we are facing a terrible situation. Under the banner of the War of Resistance, the government is trying to bring us together with war bonds. and blackmailed all of us with the nine-hour workday, forcing us to be bound to their war game with Prussia. ”

Although Prussia was closing in on Paris, this did not cause panic among the capitalists. After all, it was not uncommon for France to change governments, and as long as their business did not suffer any losses, it didn't matter if the Germans ruled Paris.

The Duke of La Rochefoucauld sat diagonally across from him and waited for the performance to be over before he spoke, "Your Excellency, although I sympathize with your plight, I have come all the way to your mansion not to listen to your complaints. I just want to know what are the benefits of working with you? You should know that going against the Provisional Government is easy to settle accounts with. ”

"yes, yes."

The others chimed in, and Duke Wojia said, "If there is no interest, we will not fool you." As you should know, we have not recovered from the agricultural crisis that broke out two years ago. Now what the aristocracy needed was land, to annex the land assets of the peasants, and to encircle more farms. ”

"Do you really think that there is unity within the Provisional Government? The contradictions between the republicans and the Trochu governors had become white-hot, and both sides were seeking external support. ”

Shridd smiled and said proudly, "Your Excellency Favre has already said that as long as our opposition can interrupt the government from enacting a nine-hour working day, the new bill drafted by the Provisional Government will protect the land interests of the emerging nobles to ensure your gains. As for the peasants who have lost their land, of course, they will become a constant source of labor for the factories, and we can get a win-win situation at a small cost. ”

A greedy look flashed in Duke La Rochefoucauld's eyes, and after listening to Sherid's story, he keenly smelled a business opportunity. Anyway, the nine-hour working day system did not affect the land income of the nobles, and Shelly could still get the benefits by pulling himself along, which was the best of both worlds.

The nobles did not have a vision, they just wanted to protect their immediate interests, "I can promise you, but when the time comes, the revised bill to protect the land interests of the nobles needs to be audited." ”

"These problems will be solved by Favre, as simple as hunting rabbits."

Shelid smiled slightly, he didn't expect to easily convince these nobles that it would be better to hold a hunt in his own land that was talked about by the upper class, rather than discussing and solving problems in a serious conference room.

"I wish it was as easy as hunting rabbits."

Although the assets were not as good as those of the Sherids, the Duke of La Rochefoucauld still showed the arrogance of an aristocracy.

"Our patience is also limited, and if we know that the Republicans are backsliding, he will lose the support of the nobles forever. But if you blatantly resist the Provisional Government, are you not afraid of their forceful means? ”

Shriad sneered and said, "How dare they? What capital does the Provisional Government have, but behind me is the Banque de France, and the Provisional Government's hard work is tantamount to being denied the legitimacy of their regime. A government's finances are the lifeblood, and Napoleon and Trochu, who lost their support, will only end up stepping down in denunciation, and we contain their lifeblood! ”

Sheridd thought that Napoleon would not dare to mess around, but he forgot one thing.

Napoleon never reasoned with anyone else, and Jehovah could not stop him from doing anything.

"Deal."

The others looked at each other and agreed.

Shelid was about to say that the cooperation was a pleasure, but there was a loud noise outside the window.

"What's going on? Macri, butler, tell the servants downstairs to shut up. ”

He frowned dissatisfiedly, and went to the window to reprimand the uneducated servant, only to see the scene that stunned him.

A crowd of Parisians surrounded the walls of the farm, and the servants were trying to close the gate to prevent the people from entering, but they were outnumbered, and the crowd quickly broke through the gate and rushed towards the manor house.

There was a loud bang, the door of the conference room shook back and forth, and the butler ran up panting, and Sheridd turned his head and asked sharply, "What the hell is going on?" ”

The servant looked panicked and said to Shellid, "Oh no, master, the Parisian mob wants to rush in and arrest you!" And said to cut off everyone's heads! ”

"What?"

The expressions of the others present changed suddenly.
