Make France Great Again

"Your Excellency, we have discovered that the Rothschild Family Bank has some credit problems! A group of stock exchange officials took bribes from them privately and shoddy the bonds! Destabilizing the French market!"

As soon as he entered the door, Carlier, the Paris police chief, quickly came to Jerome Bonaparte and reported to Jerome Bonaparte.

"I'm not...I didn't!" Alphonse de Rothschild looked at Carlier and the others who broke in suddenly, and quickly understood Jerome Bonaparte's thoughts.

Now he instantly understood that what he was facing was not the gentle and refined Louis Philippe, but a cold and ruthless Dick Tudou.

Financial means can work against a man like Louis-Philippe, but not against Dick Tudor.

"Your Majesty, the Rothschild Bank also used bribes to corrupt a group of officials from the Ministry of Public Works, and with their help, obtained a large amount of railway bonds!" Minister of Justice Rouai called Jerome Bonaparte without hesitation. "His Majesty".

"Mr. Alphonse, do you have any excuses? Corrupting state officials, selling inferior bonds... I think you are quite courageous!" Jerome Bonaparte was angry with Alphonse de Rothschild road.

The bankers who just cried poor all bowed their heads in silence. In this day and age, isn't everyone doing this kind of thing? Hasn't the president done it? No wonder!

Although the bankers have their own hearts and minds about the president, they are afraid to speak out to the president.

Not to mention that there are hordes of corruption in France now, even in the Third Republic, the Fourth Republic, and even the Fifth Republic, corruption has not decreased at all! How many presidents and prime ministers of the Fifth Republic have been accused of corruption and have been investigated. However, the investigation belongs to the investigation, and which one of them has actually been sanctioned.

Corruption in the capitalist world is nothing more than a knife for those in power to use it to bring down political opponents.

Not to mention that the United States has even turned government-business collusion into so-called political contributions. Turning corruption into a legitimate source of income is also a subtle operation in the capitalist world.

Based on power factors, Jerome Bonaparte could accuse Alphonse de Rothschild of using bribes to corrupt French bureaucrats, but Alfonse de Rothschild refuted Jerome Bonaparte in front of everyone. Everyone is corrupt.

Otherwise, what awaits him will not be imprisonment, and a very severe punishment.

Alphonse de Rothschild tactfully ordered everyone present to breathe a sigh of relief. If he bites randomly, everyone present may be finished.

"Mr. Alphonse, you actually violated the laws of the country!" Jerome Bonaparte showed a surprised expression, then shook his head and said, "It's really a pity, I didn't expect such a thing to happen!"

"Director Carlier!" Jerome Bonaparte turned his gaze to Director Carlier.

"Yes!" Director Carlière responded to Jerome Bonaparte with his head down.

"Is my friend really going to jail?" Jerome Bonaparte asked Carlier "choked up".

"I'm afraid it must be so!" Carlier responded "uprightly".

"In that case, Mr. Alphonse! I trouble you to accompany the police!" said Alphonse de Rothschild, who was ashamed opposite Jerome Bonaparte: "Please rest assured! After they find out the truth, they will definitely will let you out!"

"Thank you, Mr. President!" Alphonse de Rothschild thanked Jerome Bonaparte with a smile uglier than crying.

If there is regret medicine in the world, Alphonse de Rothschild will definitely take one.

A mere 10 million francs is nothing compared to the safety of the Rothschild Bank.

Who would have thought that Dick Tudor would really dare to arrest people!

"Come on, Mister Rothschild,

We don't want to put you in chains! "

In full view of the bankers, Alphonse de Rothschild could only leave the room with the police.

The door of the room was closed again, and the bankers who were in shock turned their gazes back.

"Don't worry, everyone. Mr. Alphonse is just cooperating with the investigation! Even if he is guilty, the charge is at most bribery!" Jerome Bonaparte "relieved" the bankers present.

It doesn't matter if you don't feel relieved, the bankers who cried to Jerome Bonaparte before saying that they have no money will become rich in an instant.

"Your Excellency, I am willing to serve the defense of France!"

"Your Excellency, I am willing too!"

Bankers have expressed to Jerome Bonaparte that they must be obliged to do their part for the future of France.

"You are all French elites, I really can't bear to reach out to you!" Jerome Bonaparte looked at the bankers with a tangled expression.

The bankers all said that the president does not need to be polite to them, and must allow them to contribute to France's national defense.

Jerome Bonaparte had to reluctantly agree to the desire of the bankers to serve the country.

"Okay! Since everyone is so enthusiastic, I hope you can continue to serve the future of France!" Jerome Bonaparte said to everyone present with a smile.

After Jerome Bonaparte's "profound" education, the bankers finally realized the importance of national defense, and they enthusiastically donated money to Jerome Bonaparte.

Jerome Bonaparte, who originally planned to raise 10 million francs, raised 15 million francs.

This method turned out to be more violent than robbery.

"I remember everyone's patriotic enthusiasm in my heart!" Jerome Bonaparte said immediately, knowing that he would hit a big stick and give a sweet date: "The next railway bond will be sold in January next year! Every time Those who have participated in the donation can obtain the qualification to subscribe for the bond first. I can assure you that the next railway bond will be more than this time!"

Jerome Bonaparte's assurances made the bankers ecstatic, and the steady rate of return on the railway bonds was enough to make the bankers forget the pain they had just cut.

If the president had told them the "good news" earlier, they would have happily donated money to the army.

Why bother to dance with knives and guns.

In Jerome Bonaparte's mind, only by making the bankers feel afraid can they obey his orders.

At the end of the 20th century, Roh Tae-woo, the leader of a certain universe country, often dragged the chaebol to Cheong Wa Dae to reprimand him during his rule.

Even after Roh Tae-woo steps down, the chaebol leaders who are afraid of Roh Tae-woo still have to donate some money to Prince Charming regularly every year.

If you can't command their respect, try to earn their fear.

Fear will prevent them from having any room to resist your administrative orders.

After the fundraising was over, the banker walked out of the room tremblingly.

Only Earl Argou, Magne, Emile Perel, Isaac Perel, Achilfold, and Adolf Schneider were left in the room.

"Monsieur Arcourt!" Jerome Bonaparte nodded slightly at the president of the Bank of France, who was already in his seventies.

"Mr. President, you really taught me a lesson!" Earl Algou couldn't help but sighed, "I seem to see the shadow of the original emperor in you!"

The eyes of this old man who has experienced the imperial period, the restoration of Bourbon, and the Kingdom of Orleans are full of memories.

"Hmm! My uncle?" Jerome Bonaparte asked Count Arcourt curiously.

"The emperor back then was just like you. He gave us the Bank of France to raise military expenses for him. In the end, the Bank of France used him as a cash machine that he could ask for at will!" Earl Argou said with emotion, When he said something wrong, he quickly responded: "Please forgive my nonsense as an old man!"

"A cash machine? No, Mr. Count Arcourt, I am different from my uncle, and the Bank of France will never become a cash machine!" Jerome Bonaparte said firmly to Count Arcourt.

"That couldn't be better!" A smile appeared on Earl Argut's face. He knew never to believe anything a politician said, but now what else could they do besides trusting him.

Hey! Algu had personally witnessed the emperor's dissolution of the Council of Five Hundred People. As long as the president had one tenth of his uncle's courage, how could those members of the Legislative Assembly be his opponents.

"However, I hope that the Bank of France can adjust the policy appropriately!" Jerome Bonaparte put forward his opinion to the president of ICBC in front of him.

"Say it!" Count Argou asked Jérôme Bonaparte with a stern expression.

"I know that you and your colleagues at the Bank of France are complacent about the profits of the Bank of France!" Jerome Bonaparte said to Count Argou, "But have you ever thought that the more you make! The more the French business community will lose!"

"Your Excellency, with all due respect! Banks exist for profit!" Earl Argut, who held a conservative view, immediately retorted.

"I admit that in terms of long-term goals, banks are for profit!" Jerome Bonaparte took out a Napoleon gold coin and said: "I once read a book that said that the value of gold does not lie in its In itself, its value lies in serving as a general equivalent. This is the mission given to it by its rarity, if gold cannot be exchanged as a general equivalent, it will be useless!"

In the 19th century, when the medieval idea of ​​precious metals still remained, it seriously hindered the development of the European financial system.

Although the Saint-Simonians proposed the link between industry and finance as early as the early 19th century, the only country that really understood and practiced it was the future Second Empire, and the rest of the countries did not gradually develop it until the 1860s and 1870s. Understand the link between industry and finance.
