"Next, we quietly wait for the struggle between Prime Minister Barrow and the Constituent Assembly, and this struggle must be wonderful!!"

In his heart, he wished that the Party of Order and the Republican Mountain Party would fight to defeat both sides. Bonaparte showed a gloating expression, two tigers will fight for one death, as long as the sick tiger of the Party of Order drives out the two little tigers of the Republicans and the Mountain Party, Jérôme. Bonaparte turned into a tiger hero and put an end to the sick tiger of the Party of Order.

When the time comes, tear some "meat" from the body of the Party of Order and a part of the Republicans and feed it to the Bonapartists, the milk tiger, and the Bonapartists will thrive and become a sharp blade in his hands.

Watching the play is watching the play, Jérôme. Bonaparte did not forget the series of problems he would face in the future, and the coup d'état did not mean the end, but a new beginning.

Now he has to prepare for this new beginning, such as......

Jérôme. Bonaparte turned his gaze to Morny and said, "Monsieur Morni, I wonder what you think about the railway?" ”

"Railroad?" For Jérôme. Bonaparte's sudden questioning Morny was stunned for the first time, and waited for a long time before he reacted and said step by step: "I think the railway is a huge project, and it takes a lot of money to build!" The maintenance cost after construction will be astronomical......"

Morni gushed about his negative view of the railway, Jérôme. A flash of disappointment flashed in Bonaparte's eyes.

Of course Jérôme. Bonaparte did not intend to criticize Morny's negative railway policy, which, judging from the experience of later generations, was undoubtedly a powerful tool for promoting a favorable circulation between the countryside and the cities in the various regions of France, in popular terms, expanding the internal circulation of France.

In the 19th century, France was still a closed environment of urban-rural duality, and the industrial products of the cities could not be transported to the countryside for the use of the rural peasants, and the rural peasants were also unable to transport grain to the big cities, which led to the drastically different effects of food prices in the entire French region.

Especially in 1847, when there was a serious shortage of bread in Paris, flour from the Seine region remained below the French price level.

Unable to transfer flour from other provinces to Paris in large quantities, Guizot tried to buy the Tsar's bread, which in turn frustrated the workers of Paris and led to the February Revolution.

If we put aside the railway experience of later generations and look at the present, it is not difficult to understand Morni's negative railway policy.

Speculation that began in Britain in 1845 infected the entire European continent like a plague, the stock exchanges of London, Paris, Frankfurt, and Brussels, railway debts hit new highs day by day, and as soon as the trunk lines were planned, they were put into the exchanges as stocks, and many people rushed to snap up the bonds in the securities market, and the booming railway bubble blew bigger and bigger in the frenzied speculation, and finally in 1847, the Irish potato crisis broke out, which became the fuse that detonated the railway bubble. Railway-related bonds fell by about 40 percent overnight, and the Great Western Bank, which holds the largest number of railway claims, is on the verge of bankruptcy.

The explosion of the British Railway bubble was like the collapse of the first card of the dominoes, and the Prussian, Austrian, and French railway companies also went bankrupt, and many planned routes were forced to suspend operations.

If it weren't for the good government of France since ancient times, the entire French railway company would have been wailing.

Last year, the railroad companies, which had barely survived, faced the crisis of nationalization, and if it had not been for the sudden outbreak of the June Revolution, the railways would have needed the government to continue to support them.

Given the gloomy outlook for the entire rail industry, Morni's negative remarks are understandable.

Understanding to understanding, Jérôme. Bonaparte still had to continue with his plan.

After Morney had racked his brains to recount all the negative railway policies he had known about, Jérôme. Bonaparte spoke: "Monsieur Morni, you have said so much from the point of view of economics! From an economic point of view, building a railway is indeed a thankless task! What if we look at it from the point of view of political science? ”

"From a political point of view?" Molny's eyes widened, he didn't seem to understand Jérôme. Bonaparte meaning.

"That's what I'll tell you!" Jérôme. Bonaparte took out a green crystal dipping pen placed on the mahogany table and drew a coordinate system on the paper, the x-axis marked the degree of stability, the y-axis marked the employment rate, and drew a 45-degree diagonal line from 0, "The stability of Paris depends on its employment rate, our government has just gone through two civil wars and is in a stage of extreme instability!" If we want Paris to be stable, we have to give the workers of Paris something to do! The railway is a project that can not only increase the employment rate, drive the cooperation of the upstream and downstream industrial chains, but also make profits! ”

"But we ......" Morni still has concerns, and the crisis of '47 has left Morni with lingering fears.

Jérôme. Bonaparte saw Molny's concerns, he patted Molney on the shoulder and said: "The incident in Britain is, in the final analysis, only caused by all the companies rushing into the railroad and then planning the route indiscriminately!" As long as we can standardize the route of the railway, we can completely eliminate these difficulties by carefully screening each company! Don't forget, our Public Works Department also has a secret army! ”

Morni suddenly remembered that the Ministry of Public Works also had a road and bridge army known as the Emperor of the Railway, and these national engineers who were mainly responsible for the approval of the railways were not only excellent railway planners, but also a daring interest group.

From 1823 when the first French railway was built, the Roads and Bridges Force had been in a-for-tat confrontation with the private operating companies on the issue of nationalizing the French railway.

Although they were defeated in 1845, they did not suffer any losses.

"We can design a railway commission at the Ministry of Public Works, delineate a number of qualified companies to license hair-style stocks, and we can consult with the Ministry of Finance on the issue of railway transport prices...... "Jérôme. Bonaparte put out the French railway plan 40 years later, "We can also declare to the public that all railways are in the form of public-private partnerships, so that the hearts of the citizens are also protected!" ”
