Chapter 185: Discipline-abiding Baron Faro
"Mr. Count, why does the president treat us like this! My son is a law-abiding French citizen! ”
Even though James, who understands that money is more important than power. Rothschild still couldn't get his first impression of the Bonaparte, who in his eyes were the dirt buns who stole the throne.
"Law-abiding?" Count Algu's face showed a touch of disdain and said, "Come on! Baron James, who of our profession doesn't have hundreds or thousands of lives in their hands! As far as I know, there was a landslide in your mine in Lorraine some time ago, and it was more than 50 lives! ”
"It was just an accident!" James. Baron Rothschild bit the accident, not the mine itself, which caused the structural instability of the mine.
"How did you deal with more than 50 miners? How are their compensation issues handled? Was the mine closed for rectification due to an accident? "The Earl of Argu asked James in succession. Rothschild.
A series of inquiries from the Earl of Argud made James. Rothschild's anger, which he had managed to suppress, rose again.
As a banker, James . Rothschild is also a man after all, not an indifferent political machine, and he also has the right to anger.
"Count Argu, if you're just here to talk cool things, you don't have to! We lose! "James. Baron Rothschild coldly responded to Count Argoo.
"No, no, no!" Count Argu shook his head and said with a frank expression: "Mr. Baron, I am not here to see your jokes!" I just hope that you and Your Excellency the President will stop the internal strife, why can't you shake hands and make peace, one of you is in control of the administration of Paris, and the other is in charge of the finance of Paris? The past is as if he was gone! ”
Count Argoo's seemingly careless appearance of Rothschild concealed evil intentions, and his surrender was nothing more than James. Rothschild Bank unilaterally to Jérôme. Bonaparte surrendered.
James. Rothschild, of course, understood what Count Algoo meant by "the past".
The reason why the Rothschilds were able to take root and prosper in Paris was not only because they had strong capital that could act as a white glove for the national debt of Paris, but also because they were very interested in the king of Orleans, Louis. Philip's investment.
James. During the Rothschild administration, France ushered in the "vigorous" June Revolution, the old Bourbon branch fell, and the new Bourbon branch came to power. Rothschild keenly seized the opportunity to stabilize the prices of the Orleans Kingdom through his own financial means, and at the same time contacted the Rothschild branches in Vienna, Frankfurt, and London to force the debt-ridden countries (except Britain) to recognize the existence of the Orleans Kingdom.
James. Rothschild thus gained Louis. Philip's esteem became a guest of honor, and his assets also doubled or tripled in the eighteen years since the establishment of the Kingdom of Orleans, becoming the second largest Rothschild bank in Britain after the existence of the Rothschild Bank.
It was precisely because of this that the Rothschild banks were so deeply tied to the Kingdom of Orleans that they could not easily change their course against Jérôme. Bonaparte invested, so they were more inclined to survive Jérôme. Bonaparte's term of office was followed by people from the House of Orleans as president, and then they were able to continue the French service.
"Mr. Count, this conflict itself was imposed on us by the president! If the president is willing to continue to pursue their policies, we are willing to follow them to the end! "James. Rothschild also took a tough stance against Jérôme. Bonaparte, who understood that if he surrendered to the president, the prestige of the Rothschilds in the French banking world would be reduced.
In the long run, the prestige of Rothschild Bank will be ruined.
Based on the attitude of the previous French rulers towards the banks, James. Rothschild believed in Jérôme. Bonaparte would have relented to him.
"Mr. Baron, I will tell your Lord the President in full!" The Earl of Argyu knew James. Baron Rothschild is probably "not crying when he sees the coffin", and the president's means can ask him to Louis. Philip was much tougher.
This time the scheming James. Rothschild miscalculated.
"Sending off!" James. Rothschild said coldly.
Count of Argour in James. Rothschild servants escorted away.
Looking at the departing figure of the Earl of Argou, James. Rothschild could no longer suppress his anger, he picked up the porcelain in the living room and threw it directly to the ground.
The blue and white enamel porcelain worth hundreds of thousands of francs was directly shattered, and James felt that it was not enjoyable. Baron Rothschild fell a few more.
The stalls in the living room were littered with broken porcelain, as if it had been swept away by a typhoon, and the servants bowed their heads tremblingly, lest the baron's wrath be implicated in their heads.
James who broke several pieces of porcelain in a row. Rothschild finally calmed some of his anger and pointed to one of his minions and ordered him to clean up the "battlefield".
Calm down a little James. Rothschild couldn't help but regret what he had just done, he was usually cautious and would be carried away, and now he had to fight with the president.
Regaining his composure, he found his personal butler and said, "Now you immediately go to Councilor Thiers's house, find Councilor Thiers and tell him that no matter what the cost, I will let Jérôme. Bonaparte, that guy get down! ”
"Master......" The butler swallowed his saliva and said cautiously: "I think it's difficult!" There's a good chance that that guy in Thiers ......"
"All you have to do is pass my word on to Thiers! Leave the rest alone! "James. Rothschild rudely interrupted the butler's reply and forcibly ordered.
"Yes!" The butler had to obey James. Rothschild's order.
Next, James. Rothschild returned to his study, and while sitting on a gold-trimmed red velvet cushion, he pulled out the letterhead in a drawer and asked Leonel in London. Rothschild, Amslow of Vienna. Rothschild, Frankfurt's Meyer. Cal. Rothschild wrote separate letters, hoping that they would use their financial power to pressure France, just as they had done with the Holy League in 1830.
But, James. Rothschild forgot that it was not 1830 anymore, and Leonel of Britain. Rothschild already had the "rebel" French James . Rothschild's Wish, Karl of Austria. Meyer. The Rothschild banks were tied up by Austrian foreign policy.
[PS: Before the February Revolution, James. Rothschild had been satirizing the Vienna Rothschild Bank for being led by the Vienna policy, so much so that several times he did not want to peddle Austrian junk bonds. During Schwarzenberg's reign, the Rothschild banks in Vienna were more tightly controlled, leaving them to follow the Austrian diplomatic baton. 】
James who finished writing the letter. Rothschild handed the letter to several trusted servants, instructing them to deliver the letter to them through the Rothschilds' secret communication channels.
The servants who took the letter said they understood, and several servants hurried away from James in the night. Rothschild's mansion.
However, they did not know that the moment they left the mansion, they were targeted by several special police officers hiding in the shadows of the Rothschild mansion.
"Captain, do you want to report to the director!" One of the special police officers questioned the captain next to him.
"There's no hurry!" The questioned special police captain shook his head, and he named 3 special police officers to be in charge of stalking, and he led the team to keep an eye on James. Rothschild servants.
On the other hand, the Count of Algoo, who left the Rothschild mansion by car, will be James . Rothschild to Jérôme. Bonaparte's "declaration of war" informed Jérôme. Bonaparte listened.
Face James. Rothschild's almost ridiculous declaration, Jérôme. Bonaparte gave a contemptuous expression: "Who does he think he is?" The Emperor of Paris? Declare war? Is he worthy? ”
"Your Majesty, James. Baron Rothschild did speak with some hubris! "Count Argour affirmed Jérôme. Bonaparte's words then responded: "I suggest that he should be taught a proper lesson!" ”
"Count Argou, are you interceding for him?" Jérôme. Bonaparte said to Count Argoo.
"Not really!" Count Argu shook his head and said, "I think that rushing to the Rothschild Bank will bring unnecessary trouble to the financial industry in Paris, and will also have an adverse impact on His Majesty's rule!" ”
In order to maintain stability in Paris, Jérôme. Bonaparte nodded and assured Count Algouse, "Don't worry! I'm just teaching Rothschild a lesson! ”
"Hmm!" Count Argua breathed a sigh of relief, as long as the president did not want to forcibly strangle the Rothschild bank.
"However, you have to make sure that the Banque de France will always support me in this matter!" Jérôme. Bonaparte replied to the Count of Argou.
"The members of the Board of Directors of the Banque de France will certainly support the decision of His Excellency the President!" The Count of Argaux immediately sent a message to Jérôme. Bonaparte assured.
"And I hope Manie can be a member of the board!" Jérôme. Bonaparte spoke again to the Count of Argoo.
Now he is anxious to expand his influence in the Banque de France and dilute James. Rothschild's influence at the Banque de France.
After thinking for a moment, Count Argyu agreed with Jérôme. Bonaparte's "opinion".
"I could think of the board recommending Mane, but it needs the unanimous approval of the board!"
