Harry Potter Morning Light

Since Queen Catherine II came to the throne, she has been trying to open the door to the west and export grain, hemp, timber and other goods.

The name of the Russian Consul in Marseilles is Pescier. He is a Swiss businessman. Under his activities, Ukrainian wheat began to be exported to Marseilles from the port of the Black Sea, and because of the special needs of France, timber also passed through this country. Consul imports to Russia.

Napoleoni now wants to build a good relationship with the Russians. Even if he knows that railways are more durable than wooden roads, he still has to import a large amount of wood from Russia, not to mention that wood does not have to be used for rails, but can also be used for masts and charcoal .

In exchange, the Russians would buy French-made cloth.

This business started in the 17th century. By the end of the 18th century, Marseilles could no longer sell large quantities of Languedoc wool to the Turkish market, because Turkey's national financial resources began to dry up, and Languedoc suffered bad luck.

After Alexander I came to the throne, he first changed most of the decrees of Paul I, restored the privileges of the nobility, announced amnesty for the fugitive serfs, and pardoned or rehabilitated those sentenced in Paul’s era from exile. domestic economic problems.

It is undeniable that the French military uniforms are really good-looking. Even if these woolens are made into Russian military uniforms, it doesn’t matter, as long as the silver coins spent by the French on buying wood can be returned to their pockets.

In the past 500 years, Westerners have loved to use spices because of their preference for heavy tastes, as long as the ancient recipes are restored, and it is for this reason that pepper and other spices occupy an important position in the Mediterranean trade. However, Napoleon, who stayed in Cairo, discovered that the spice bazaar was not as prosperous as the legend said. On the contrary, the business of coffee, raw silk, wool, leather, cotton and cotton yarn resold through Egypt was better.

This is the case with people's hobbies. Do people who like coffee really like the bitter and sour taste? Most people, especially women, will add milk and sugar to their coffee, and what they prefer is the atmosphere in the cafe.

Napoleon's hobby is the "Orient", especially things from Egypt and ancient Rome, and now Constantinople is added. The bronze horse he robbed from St. Mark's Church in Venice is still looking for a place to put it.

Woolen used to replace silk as a material for decorating walls. If it is made luxuriously enough, it can also be used to decorate the reception room for state guests.

What's more, the reception room decorated as a cafe is in the Mars Hall of St. Luke's Palace, which is also the Hall of God of War. As for the patterns on the flannel, she decided to use plants. There are also many plant patterns in the mosque. This room has become very luxurious.

The St. Luke's Palace is relatively small, and the rooms are not big. This kind of small living room is more suitable for meeting intimate friends. She plans to use Moroccan leather for the sofa, and the carpet depends on whether the sultan of the Ottoman Empire will send it. She plans to use granite or marble for the coffee table.

Napoleon dropped the teapot that Ekaterina gave to Count Coltz, so she will send him a whole set of Sevres porcelain as compensation, and at the same time she will send him a whole set of French perfumes, hopefully fragrant spices Can soothe his wounded heart.

Before Napoleon came back, the second ruling Cambaceres had dismissed the 26 congressmen and tribunes who had troubled with Siyes, and now everyone is waiting for Napoleon to appoint new officials to fill those vacancies.

As a woman, if she is not busy arranging the room, is she going to participate in such a "big event" like Queen Catherine?

The republican Georgiana introduced by Lucien did not recommend it, and it is not for her to participate in the decision whether France will adopt a monarchy or a republic in the future.

According to the food consumption of 3 quintals per person per year, the 1 million quintals raised by Napoleon and the 2 million quintals provided by Godoy, as well as the 55,000 quintals shipped from England and the Netherlands every month, are completely enough for 100 quintals in Paris. The needs of all people. Provided no one takes the opportunity to hoard.

When the Girondins were in power, they did not care about the soaring domestic food prices and firmly opposed the establishment of a price ceiling. The civilians rushed into the National Committee because they could not afford bread. In a sense, these civilians could be disbanded at that time parliamentary.

After disbanding, it is difficult to re-elect a new ruling party. On May 31, 1793, the civilians who broke into the National Convention patronized the protest. Later, the Jacobins led the same civilians to break into the National Assembly. Jacobin The Binns replaced the Girondins, and the "spring" that Napoleon thought had arrived.

He has changed a lot. After all, he is no longer the hot-blooded young man in his 20s. He is ruthless and calculating when talking about the captives, but he will definitely not cede Tobago to the British in exchange for captives.

Portugal and Spain have a lot of gold and silver, which they brought back from their South American colonies, and because of this, the gold and silver of Spain and Portugal are much cheaper than other European countries.

Because gold and silver are small in size and high in value, shipping costs are actually not a problem, let alone insurance. Who would dare to snatch the gold ship escorted by four British cruisers?

The real headache is Ufral's blank special trade bill. The trade bills sent by France are all signed by Napoleon himself. His signature is 1,000 francs, and the signature of Charles IV of Spain is the same as the printed one. After all He wants to save the Spanish economy.

Britain's trade bills are made by Parliament, just like the French Senate, although they have no legislative power, they hold the power to approve commercial loans.

For example, the construction of the Saint-Martin Canal has a budget of 30 million francs. The French government will not really pay that much at one time. Instead, it will seek financing from hundreds of banks in Paris. Tolls earn steady interest. Banks still prefer to lend rather than invest in industry.

Financing is very difficult for French SME owners, and banks are almost useless. They rely on their connections in the past to borrow money from friends, relatives, partners, suppliers, etc.

If money is compared to blood, then once the blood does not flow, what effect will it have?

It was just some dormant capital, and when the blood stopped flowing, something went wrong with France's body.

Private savings hidden in socks is an obstacle to the development of enterprises. The disadvantage of coins is that they can be put into jars and buried deep in the ground. If the money encounters a disaster, it can be dug out for emergency. Whenever a natural disaster occurs in a certain area Disasters, and money emerges from hidden places.

There are 100 banks in Paris, but only 4 in Rouen, not to mention the other provinces.

Last time the farming loan made those bankers go crazy. The general loan interest rate is about 5%, and 7% is already very high. The interest rate of 1% is doing a good deed. The bakery owner dares to embezzle the money to lend I'm going to be jailed.

The advantage of water transportation is that it is cheap and can carry heavy goods. The wood can float on the water. The unit of measurement is not based on volume and weight, but on "trips". However, the annual flood and dry season also make the use of the canal Time is reduced, and water transportation cannot completely replace land transportation.

Big business must grasp luck, France and Russia will not coexist so peacefully forever, Georgiana also wants to learn from Ufral to open a timber factory and earn some "pocket money".

This is not the first time she has done this. She has also secretly sold the herbs she grew before, but those plants were originally grown by herself.

This matter can be handed over to Ge Dan, which is more legal than smuggling, and it will not be a problem.

Gabriel Ufral and Julien Ufral are two different types of speculators, but they are always risk-takers, which is better than those who just want to make sure money and have local protectionism The bankers are much better.

A kind of gravity is constantly pushing capital, flowing out of the capital pool like water.

If the French bankers do not plan to take action, Georgiana intends to find Italian bankers to occupy the French provincial banking industry.

Sometimes it takes a catfish to get a sardine back to port alive.

But before launching this grand blueprint, she needs engineers. Before that, she has to copy the "homework" of the people of Liverpool, who said that Britain is a top student in terms of industry.
