For Jérôme. For Bonaparte, the early completion of the main lines of the French railway network, especially the construction of the Paris-Strasbourg and Paris-Marseille railways, was a complete priority.

The former is Jérôme. Bonaparte was an important factor in the future attack on Germany, which was preparing for the Crimean War a few years later, and he did not want to rely on Britain's transport capabilities like his cousin in history.

The establishment of his own perfect army logistics support system was his first move to reform the army, and opening up the railway network in Marseille was also the first step in leveraging the army's logistics support. In that case, he is no different from his cousin in history.

"Please rest assured, Your Excellency, I promise to build it in four years!" As a technical advisor and member of the Railroad Commission, Alfred . Picard patted his chest at Jérôme. Bonaparte assured.

Although he is still a little worried about whether the Ministry of Finance will approve the project, since Mr. President has repeatedly assured himself that the funds will be in place, if he continues to pour cold water, I am afraid that he will have to leave.

As a technocrat, Picard only needs to complete the tasks assigned to him by the president and the state.

"That's right, Mr. Picard!" Jérôme. Bonaparte continued to look through the information sent by Picard and said, "What if...... I mean, if ......"

Jérôme. Bonaparte repeatedly emphasized: "If a contingent of about 100,000 men assembles in Paris and arrives in Marseille by train in batches, will you not be able to deliver them all in twenty days?" ”

"Mr. President, we ......" heard Jérôme. Bonaparte assumes Alfred. Pierka stared blankly at Jérôme. Bonaparte, he understood Jérôme. The subtext of Bonaparte was that he really couldn't find anything but the army to transport 100,000 people at once.

What does Mr. President want to do?

Alfred. Picard's heart shuddered, and for a moment he didn't know how to answer Jérôme. Bonaparte, or rather, he knew the answer, was a little afraid to answer.

For Alfred. For Picard, some things are still hard to be confused.

He was only a middle-level bureaucrat in the state system, and it was all the more important for Minister Morni to stand with him as a member of the Railroad Commission.

Jérôme. Bonaparte saw Alfred. Picard's mood fluctuated, and he hurriedly added: "Mr. Picard, I'm just asking you from the perspective of national defense!" After all, France also needs some autonomous defense capabilities, and we can't wait for others to invade us before fighting back. It doesn't matter if you can't answer it, just treat it as a lubricant! ”

"Mr. President, based on the current system in France, there are still some difficulties in transporting 100,000 people in 20 days! Unless ...... "Alfred. Picard paused.

"Unless what?" Jérôme. Bonaparte immediately asked.

Alfred. Picard glanced at Molney and gritted his teeth to come to his conclusion: "Unless the ability to increase the weight of the Railroad Committee, and the Road and Bridge troops need to keep a certain pace with the army!" ”

Alfred. Picard's plan made Jérôme. Bonaparte remembered the Ministry of Railways and the railway sappers in his previous life.

However, it is clear that this is not a good time to take the Railroad Commission out of the control of the Ministry of Public Works.

Leaving aside the approval required to add a ministry to France's political system, the issue of the Ministry of Public Works bonds is a problem.

If the Railroad Committee were to be separated, the approval of the railways, the issuance of shares by the railway companies, and the issuance of the railways included in the bonds of the Ministry of Public Works would have to be severed from the Ministry of Public Works.

The Ministry of Public Works, whose interests have been damaged, will definitely not give up, and it does not have the courage to openly resist, but it still has the courage to secretly resist.

If you slow down your progress, Jérôme. Bonaparte really became a chicken stealer.

Not to mention the establishment of the Ministry of Railways, who will become the Minister of Railways is another big question.

"You can discuss the issue of the weight ratio of the railway committee with Minister Morny, and the road and bridge troops and the army should also maintain constant communication." Jérôme who does not have enough authority. Bonaparte could only choose to play haha and avoid the question.

Alfred. There was a hint of loss in Picard's eyes, but he quickly picked himself up.

"Minister Morni, railways are an important part of our country's transportation, national defense, and even the prosperity and stability of commodity trade! I hope you can strictly control the gates, and you must not let the railway become the laughing stock of other countries! I also often visit the Ministry of Public Works and the railway site to investigate! "Jérôme. Bona looked at Morni and said in an accentuated tone.

For a bureaucratic France, the quality of the project often depends on the importance that the leadership attaches to the project.

"Yes!" Molny also knew Jérôme. Bonaparte attached great importance to the railway, otherwise he would not have "insisted on going his own way" to pursue his railway policy.

Through contact in the last half month, Morni learned about Jérôme. Bonaparte allowed those close to him to do some proper transgression, but only if you can do your job well.

Otherwise, he will reprimand you mercilessly.

A cursory look at half of the information Jérôme. Bonaparte put the information on the table again to Alfred. "Mr. Picard and Morni hope that you will be able to complete the preparations for the railway commission as soon as possible, and I hope to see the construction of the railway start in the second half of this year!" No problem! ”

"No problem!" Morni immediately responded that there were still nearly five months before the second half of the year, which was enough for him to start construction and issue a first phase of bonds.

"If there's nothing to do, please!" Jérôme. Bonaparte tactfully ordered the two to be evicted.

Molney with Alfred. Picard is gone, leaving only Jérôme in the living room. Bonaparte with the Marquise of Alai.

"Madam, you just heard the state secret word for word!" Jérôme. Bonaparte said in an exaggerated tone, the Marquise d'Alai.

"So is Mr. President going to detain me for treason?" The Marquise d'Arley's voice was soft, like a marshmallow.

"Then it depends on Madame's wishes!" Jérôme. Bonaparte replied with a serious expression.

The Marquise of Alai "giggled".

As Jérôme. Bonaparte's old lover of her, of course, understood what it meant, and the white arms were wrapped around Jérôme. Bonaparte sat on the back of his neck and body also left the seat in Jérôme. Bonaparte's right leg.

Just as the two of them were about to make their next move, Persini burst into the room.

Seeing this, the Marquise of Alai wanted to separate Jérôme. Bonaparte held her firmly in his arms and motioned with his eyes for Pesini to continue.

For this scene is not strange Pesini, go to Jérôme. Bonaparte said, "Your Majesty, Victor. Monsieur Hugo is here! ”
