Face Jérôme. Bonaparte's inquiry, Franz. Joseph nodded without hesitation.

"Jérôme, you should know what we need right now in the Austrian Empire, so I hope you will give us a chance!" Franz. Joseph pleaded with Jérôme. Bonaparte gave him an opportunity to earn foreign exchange.

The Austrian Empire now has investments from the French Empire in various industries, and most of the funds invested by banks in the Austrian Empire are raised in the form of bonds.

It can be said that the economy of the Austrian Empire was linked to the fluctuations of stocks and bonds on the Paris Stock Exchange.

In the event of fluctuations on the Paris Stock Exchange, the economy of the Austrian Empire could be hit to a certain extent.

Stand in Jérôme. From Bonaparte's point of view, such a bundled economy was indeed conducive to the control of the French Empire over the Austrian Empire.

However, now Franz. From Joseph's point of view, the situation was very detrimental to the Austrian Empire.

This is equivalent to sending his own lifeblood to someone else's hands, although this teammate said that there is no sign of turning his face yet, but no one dares to guarantee whether it will always be peaceful and friendly in the future.

Hence Franz. Joseph, like Cavour, hoped to take advantage of Jérôme. Bonaparte needed the opportunity of labor to save a sum of foreign currency for the Austrian Empire in case of a possible eventuality.

Of course, Jérôme. Bonaparte could be sure of Franz. Joseph couldn't have imagined such a thing, most likely that the old fellow from Metternich encouraged him to speak to himself.

And the reason why Metternich knew about this was probably related to the little Prince Metternich in Paris.

However, Jérôme. Bonaparte was not interested in "debunking" hiding in Franz. Prince Metternich behind Joseph.

He smiled at Franz. Joseph responded: "Of course I myself am willing to cooperate with the Austrian Empire!" ”

"How much labor do you need! I'll arrange it for you right away! "Franz. Joseph asked Jérôme again. Bonaparte said.

"At the moment, Algeria doesn't need much labor!" Jérôme. "We have already signed a labor agreement with Cavour that about tens of thousands of Sardinian laborers will go to Algeria in batches!"

These laborers are more than enough to meet the needs of the Algerian region! ”

"Then forget it!" Franz. Joseph replied to Jérôme with a hint of frustration. Bonaparte said.

"But ......" Jérôme. Bonaparte turned to Franz. Joseph continued, "There is still a huge labor gap in some of the companies I have opened in Senegal and in the Holy Land!

If the Austrian Empire wishes, I can also persuade the domestic enterprises to sign a labor agreement with you! ”

"Absolutely!" Franz. Joseph hurried to respond to Jérôme. Bonaparte said: "When can we sign an agreement!" ”

"There's no need to rush this!" Jérôme. Bonaparte replied with a steady, and then gave Franz a message to him. Joseph received a dose of vaccination in advance: "Say in advance, I only want Croatian laborers!" ”

"Huh? Why? "Franz. Joseph asked curiously.

"Because the Croats are loyal!" Jérôme. Bonaparte casually said perfunctorily.

"They? Loyal? "Franz. Joseph's expression was slightly strange, and he really couldn't think of how Croatia and loyalty could be equated.

During the European Revolution, the current high-ranking Croatian official, Josip Brown. Jelačić took the lead in disobeying the orders of the Austrian Empire.

Although later Josipp. Jelačić obeyed the orders of the Austrian Empire, but that was also after the Hungarian rebellion.

Franz. Joseph had always believed that Croatia also wanted to oppose the Austrian Empire, but Hungary at that time, under the influence of the thief Kossuth, was unwilling to accept them.

Yosipp. Jerakic returned to the side of the Austrian Empire, and after his accession to the throne, he was forced to reluctantly recognize Josip. Jelačić's position as a senior Croatian official.

"That's right! Loyal! "Jérôme. Bonaparte nodded again to Franz. Joseph responded.

"Good! I will single out Croatian laborers! "Jérôme. Bonaparte also simply no longer struggled with Croatia's loyalty.

"By the way, those laborers will all be incorporated into the sequence of the French Foreign Legion!" Jérôme. Bonaparte reminded Franz again. Joseph.

"The French Foreign Legion?" Franz. Joseph's face was even more confused.

"It's too dangerous on the Senegalese side, and people who go to Croatia have to undergo months of militarized training in Lyon! After receiving militarized training, don't you become a part of the Foreign Legion! "Jérôme. Bonaparte asked in a heartfelt manner.

"If a soldier of the Foreign Legion dies, how should the compensation be calculated!" Franz. Joseph asked Jérôme again. Bonaparte said.

"Multiply the number of francs earned by the laborer for his work each year by two as compensation for the death of the laborer!" Jérôme. Bonaparte responded decisively to Franz. Joseph, "This money will be handed over directly to you, and it is up to you how to distribute it!" ”

"Good! I agreed! "Franz. Joseph vs. Jérôme. Bonaparte replied.

Immediately afterwards, Franz. Joseph and Jérôme. Bonaparte discussed the annual wages of Croatian laborers.

"1,000-1,200 francs!" Jérôme. Bonaparte vs. Franz. Joseph replied, "about a little less than the wages of the average Parisian worker!" ”

"Yes!" Franz. Joseph nodded again.

1,000-1,200 francs is equivalent to the basic wage of an ordinary worker in a third-tier city in France, but in the Austrian Empire it was the highest paid area outside of Vienna and Prague.

The life of a laborer is twice the annual wage of a laborer, which is equivalent to 2,000-2,400 francs, and this is all Jérôme. Bonaparte was kind-hearted and gave the price.

If this group of workers is sent to the UK, not to mention compensation, it is already very good not to pay the wages of entrepreneurs in London.

And Jérôme. Bonaparte was willing to pay this price to recruit Croats because he did not see them as normal laborers at all.

Rather, it is a militia armed group with militarized training, and the purpose of their trip to Senegal and the Holy Land is naturally to let them make trouble.

Senegal, in particular, is now Jérôme. Bonaparte had already developed a strategy for the expansion of its colonies in Africa, and Senegal, as one of the few lands occupied by the Second Reich in West Africa, was naturally used as an outpost.

Jérôme. Bonaparte's value was not Croatia's so-called loyalty, but the culture of loyalty that is unique to the Balkan people.

Jérôme. Bonaparte clearly remembered that more than 90 years later, the "Ustasha" organization of the Independent State of Croatia caused hundreds of thousands of deaths on the territory of Yugoslavia.

The current Croatian high-ranking official, Josip. The Croatian army, led by Jelačić, also caused a certain degree of massacre in Hungary.

Although the imperialism of the 19th century was not a good thing, Croatia, which inherited the simple "folk customs" of the Balkans, is even more exemplary.

Hence Jérôme. Bonaparte especially needed these "loyal, capable" Croats to wipe out a part of the West African population for him.

After the price was negotiated, Franz. Joseph and Jérôme. Bonaparte chatted for a moment again, and then left the study.

Return to the bedroom of Jérôme. Bonaparte saw Augusta sitting on the couch, and he slowly came to him and sat down.

"What did Franz tell you to do?" Empress Augusta asked Jérôme. Bonaparte said.

"Discuss with me how to solve the financial constraints imposed on them by France!" Jérôme. Bonaparte replied lightly, "Franz was afraid of being controlled by our money, so he wanted to be able to use labor to earn foreign exchange!" ”

"You promised him!" Empress Augusta asked again.

"Of course!" Jérôme. Bonaparte whispered: "Anyway, now we need labor to fill the population of our African soil!" ”

Just then there was a knock at the door, and Empress Augusta hurriedly got up and opened the door.

Elisabeth Yin and Countess Rafalte appeared at the door, "Sister Augusta, I didn't bother you!" ”

"Nope! What's wrong? Augusta asked curiously.

"It's been a long night, should we play for a while!" Yin Lizabeth spread out her hand and said to Augusta with a stack of cards in her hand.

"Yes!" Augusta invited Elizabeth and the Countess of Rafalte in.

Elisabeth Yoon with the Countess of Rafalte in Jérôme. At Bonaparte's invitation, he sat down on the other two sofas.

Elizabeth Yoon told Jérôme. Bonaparte and Augusta played, they were playing the Whist card.

The four of them split into two groups to confront each other.

"Then I'll be in a group with Augusta, and you and Madame Lafalte in a group!" Jérôme. Bonaparte immediately said to Elizabeth.

"No! We should leave this to God! "Elizabeth handed it to Jérôme. Bonaparte three people a piece, therefore.

The four people present immediately threw out the silver coins, and after a few rounds, the group was finally decided.

Jérôme. Bonaparte was in a group with Elisabeth Yin, and Rafalte was in a group with Augusta.

"Don't hold me back!" Jérôme. Bonaparte said to Elisabeth.

"You're the one who doesn't drag me back!" Yin Lizabeth retorted.

After the game officially began, Jérôme. Bonaparte and Elisabeth had no tacit understanding at all, and were defeated by Augusta and Rafalte.

After a few rounds, the two began to attack each other, and changed their methods to block each other.

Augusta and Lafalte's cooperation gradually became tacit, and Jérôme. Bonaparte and Elizabeth lost even worse.
