I Am the Crown Prince in France

Completely different from when he met with the Admiralty Minister, Joseph met the Marquis of St. Priest in his study, and sent all the servants away, and the guards outside the door also stepped back ten meters.

After Joseph finished explaining his plan in detail, the Minister of War suddenly said in shock: "How do you know she is in Nijmegen?!"

Joseph thought to himself that of course he had watched it in the documentary, but he could only pretend to be mysterious and said: "Ah, this is a secret, but the news is absolutely reliable."

St. Priest frowned, and after a while he finally nodded with difficulty: "Although this is feasible, it is also very risky. You know, even the best spy may make a mistake. If you are not careful, you will... Cause war.”

Joseph smiled and said: "Don't worry, even if the matter is leaked, as long as Wilhelmina is fine, Prussia will announce it according to our words. Because their economic situation is also very poor and they are absolutely unwilling to go to war with France."

The Minister of War pondered for a while, then stood up and said: "This matter is too important. I have to report it to Her Majesty the Queen before I can make a final decision."

"Of course." Joseph sent him to the door and suddenly said, "Marquis Saint Priest, do you have to thank me for this matter?"

The Minister of War was slightly startled. It was the Crown Prince who helped get the budget from the Netherlands and formulated an action plan. He only focused on implementing it and forgot to thank the Crown Prince.

He nodded in shame and said, "You should really thank Your Highness."

Joseph smiled and said: "Then give me some gifts."

"Your Highness, please feel free to speak."

"Well, give me 20 of your top spies."

Saint Priest almost cried, thinking to himself, Your Highness, you are so young, how come you are more ruthless than the robbers? 20 spies, and they have to be top-notch! Do you think all my spies were picked up on the roadside?

He said with a grimace: "Your Highness, the entire army does not have 20 top spies."

"18."

"Maximum 2 people."

"15."

"Three, there are really no more!"

"Twelve people, no more!"

The two of you "asked for a price", and I "repaid the money". In the end, Joseph obtained 3 top spies and 8 ordinary spies from the Minister of War. Although the number was not large, this would be the basis for his establishment of the "French CIA" The first block of the building turns.

Today was destined to be a busy day. As soon as Saint Priest left, two people recommended by Queen Mary came to see him one after another.

Joseph had an in-depth exchange with the two, and gained a general understanding of their character and abilities, combined with their own wishes, and finally decided to let Besancon serve as the Paris Police Director. After all, this is a position that requires management skills.

Friant was also a good talent, and Joseph would not waste it, so he appointed him as the dean of the Paris Police Academy under preparation - the principal was naturally appointed by Joseph himself.

Friant has extensive experience training new recruits, which will be helpful in training police officers.

"So, the most important task after you take office is to promote the police reform to all of Paris." Joseph said to Besançon, "I have asked people to compile all the rules, regulations and reorganization plans into a book. You can follow them and implement them." good.

"Oh, the security pressure in St. Anthony District has been relatively low recently. You can allocate some manpower from there to evaluate other districts. If there are not enough, I can call on the guards to help you."

Kesoud's eyelids twitched on the side. He felt that since the Crown Prince carried out police reforms, the guards have become more and more like handymen...

Nathanson took notes carefully and thought: "Your Highness, I have some understanding of police reform before. If the entire Paris police force is reorganized, the salary alone will cost about 50,000 livres per month. In addition to uniforms, equipment, etc. The city hall will definitely not be able to afford the cost.”

The police funding of the Paris City Hall is only 8,000 livres per month.

Joseph said: "Don't worry about money. I will allocate you 50,000 livres later, and will allocate it monthly in the future."

"Yes, Your Highness!"

Joseph looked at Friant again: "The workload on your side will be relatively large. The first task is to select a location for the police academy. It can be more remote, and the land price is mainly cheap.

"Another issue is the issue of teachers. Currently, the only ones available are the experienced police officers from St. Anthony District, but they are not enough."

Friant immediately said: "Your Highness, I have many retired veterans and even military officers that I know well. They should be able to do the training in formation and combat."

"Very good." Joseph nodded happily. The military's training standards are much higher than those of the police. "You should contact them as soon as possible, and the salary will be based on the standards of municipal officials, plus 30%."

"Yes, Your Highness."

"In addition, we need to recruit teachers in finance, trade, journalism, and law. The police academy will offer these courses."

Friant wondered: "Why do they teach this in police training schools?"

Nathanson was more flexible and immediately said: "I think what Your Highness means is that only by being familiar with the criminal's modus operandi can we catch them. I remember when I first started chasing smuggling, I didn't even know how to calculate tariffs and what kind of goods. I didn’t even know how easy it was to carry and transport, so I found nothing for several months. Then I seriously studied how to smuggle, and it took more than half a year to finally catch the first batch of smugglers.”

"That's right." Joseph nodded approvingly, "The police are more professional than criminals in order to effectively deter and combat crime."

Friant had never heard of these advanced concepts, and he was greatly shocked. He kept nodding his head and quickly recorded it in his notebook.

Joseph gave them many more details, allocated 20,000 livres of start-up funds to Friant, and sent the two of them away.

Returning to the palace, the exclusive accountant immediately took two expenditure receipts and asked Joseph to sign.

Joseph looked at the total expenditure of 70,000 livres and couldn't help but sigh. His private property totaled more than 200,000 livres. He used to pay 20,000 livres to the police and 10,000 to Lamarck to buy necessities for the pharmaceutical factory. Now he only has Over 100,000.

Spending money is really like running water. We must increase our income as soon as possible, otherwise we will be left with nothing in a short time.

He immediately thought of his plan to make cosmetics with salicin. Unexpectedly, making some antipyretics at random would now become the fastest way to make money.

He sent the accountant away and said to Eman: "Please order a batch of things for me."

The attendant immediately took out a pen and paper and began to record: "Please give me your instructions."

"50 kilograms of glycerin, 1 kilogram of rose essential oil, 500 7-ounce glass bottles, and the same number of small wooden boxes that can fit the size of the glass bottles. Hot stamping on the boxes..."

As a person with difficulty in naming, Joseph was stunned for a few seconds, and suddenly remembered the birthday gift "SK2 Fairy Water" that his roommate bought for his girlfriend in his previous life. He felt that the name was quite catchy, so he said: "Hot stamp 'Angel Water'."

“All these things need to be of the best quality, so don’t worry too much about price.”

"Yes, Your Highness, I will do it right away."
