Make France Great Again Chapter 196

For Jerome Bonaparte, who would let others share the gold mine with him if he could mine it independently and ship it back.

As the United States of America was still in its infancy, entrenched protectionism at the local level made it difficult for Jerome Bonaparte to get the gold out without resorting to official force.

If official power is used, it will inevitably lead to strong rejection from the United States of America itself.

The reason is that California was the spoils of last year's Mexican-American War. Once the official identity is used for mining, it will inevitably make American politicians think that France will act as a **** stick like before, which is even more unfavorable to capital plunder.

[From 1846 to 1849, the French fleet intervened in the Argentine Civil War, and before that in the South-Central Pacific in what is now French Polynia. If Dae Ying is the number one scumbag, France can be rated as the second scumbag. 】

"Pure" capital must be allowed to enter California, and Jerome Bonaparte thought of Count Argoux and the others.

"Your Majesty, did you really discover gold mines in California?"

The Count of Argoux asked Jerome Bonaparte again, and then realized that he was offended and added: "I didn't question what you meant, I was afraid that you would be deceived by some irresponsible survey team! I have heard it before! Many fraudulent survey teams, under the guise of mining gold mines, ask their employers for follow-up start-up funds, and then when the employers can't get enough funds for subsequent mining, these survey teams disappear in a blink of an eye!”

"They dare not!" Jerome Bonaparte sneered, as if to himself: "If they dare, I don't mind sending their families to America!"

Jerome Bonaparte made a gesture of raising his hand and dropping the knife.

In order to prevent the survey team from deceiving him, he chose some family surveyors, whose wives and daughters were controlled by Jerome Bonaparte in Paris.

Of course, this is only the first layer of insurance for Jerome Bonaparte.

In order to prevent the "danger" of the survey team, Jerome Bonaparte also stuffed a group of loyal guards into the survey team. In the name of "protecting" their safety, he was actually monitoring them.

Most of these guards are the descendants of the empire's fall. They are loyal to the Bonaparte family. In addition to Jerome Bonaparte's unmasked eldest nephew, he believes that it is difficult for these three forces to be linked together to deceive him.

Hearing Jérôme Bonaparte's unwavering response, Count Argoux decided to trust the president's integrity, and his usually turbid and yellowish pale blue eyes burst out with fiery enthusiasm.

A qualified banker can package worthless things (eg: emeralds, diamonds) into high-value items, and then attract a large number of people to pay for them.

A shrewd banker can even create something out of nothing, turning non-existent assets into tangible assets in the form of stocks. In the end, the tangible assets will go bankrupt due to business problems or poor debt problems, and the banker will stand on the shore unscathed and laugh. Looking at the people who were struggling in the bankruptcy of Sea King, they sneered: "You are not poor because you don't work hard!"

The banker who has achieved great success can even harvest leeks while instilling some chicken soup for the soul like the people.

Of course, after the tide of the times receded, people who woke up from chicken soup looked at themselves "naked swimming" on the beach, and the chicken soup lost its effect.

After confirming that the Jerome Bonaparte news is true. Count Argu had already thought of "100 ways to hype gold mines".

As long as the president's mines can produce gold, he can use capital to leverage the finances in France and even Europe, and countless investors pay for their stocks.

As for how much gold the mine owns, it's not what they say.

Whoops! Where will those gold diggers in the west be their opponents, as long as the stock price can continue to rise, then they will have enough shells to attack those gold diggers.

"Your Majesty, how much money do you need!" Count Argoux immediately told Jerome Bonaparte that his bank could fully meet Jerome Bonaparte's needs.

"Monsieur Count, please don't worry!" Jerome Bonaparte, who brought the atmosphere into the climax, glanced at his pocket watch calmly.

After a while, a knock came from outside the door.

Jerome Bonaparte cleared his throat and said, "Come in!"

The door opened, and Emile Perel, Magne, and Adolf Schneider appeared at the door.

Count Argu's expression condensed, and he understood that there might be a few more people at his table.

"Look! Our friend is coming soon!" Jerome Bonaparte showed a sly smile, and he had already seen the solemnity of Count Argoux.

For Jerome Bonaparte, the more people who plan to join, the better.

In this way he can win over a large number of bankers to serve his plan.

Once on the ship of Jerome Bonaparte, there is no possibility of disembarking.

Jerome Bonaparte and the Count of Argoux moved from the desk to the sofa.

Jerome Bonaparte smiled and repeated to them what he had said to the Count of Argoux.

The expressions of several people present were different. Emile Perel and Manie were serious and excited, while Adolf Schneider showed a shocked look.

"Your Majesty, what do you want us to do?" Emile Perel asked immediately.

Jerome Bonaparte, who raised his legs, said calmly: "I want you to accompany me to do a big job!"

Although Jérôme Bonaparte's tone was very peaceful, several people present felt the restless heart of His Excellency the President from the tone of his speech.

"Your Majesty, can you explain in detail?" The cautious Adolf Schneider looked at Jerome Bonaparte.

“I plan to invite you to join me in investing in a company and mining the gold mines in California!” Jerome Bonaparte wanted to explain to several people present: “We can turn gold mines into stocks, and in Sell ​​our stocks all over Europe! As long as we can have enough gold, we are not afraid that they will not have confidence in our stocks, many countries have already had enough of the Russian Empire!"

Having said that, Jerome Bonaparte paused and looked at the group of "pioneers of the times" in front of him.

Since half of the world's gold mines come from the Russian Empire, Nicholas I, who owns the gold mines, has the right to price gold, so European countries have to put up with this guy.

Of course, the Tokugawa shogunate has not yet established a country, and European countries have always been in a hazy state for Japan.

Companies with gold mines are often expected by investors. In the hearts of investors, a stock that owns gold is guaranteed, no matter how bad it is.

In general, Jerome Bonaparte's thinking in the first half is not much different from that of the Count of Argoux.

For Jérôme Bonaparte, the next step is the key, he looked at the bankers present and continued: "According to my survey team report, the gold mines in California may exceed the existing world. (referring to Europe) more gold combined, you should know what that means!"

The expressions of everyone present changed greatly.

If the president's words are true, the influx of gold is bound to impact the market value of gold in Europe.

Due to the delay of information in the European market and the American market, coupled with the speed of information circulation.

The gold price in the European market will not fluctuate due to the discovery of a large amount of gold in California in a short period of time.

"We need to acquire a batch of gold before the market has reacted! When the time is right, we will be selling this batch of gold!" Jerome Bonaparte said to several "pioneers of the times" present: "Just need With the help of this thing, we will be able to push the price of gold down again! Gold will inevitably suffer large fluctuations, will the banks of European countries accept this fluctuation calmly?”

The Count of Argoux shook his head subconsciously. Of course, the Bank of France would not like to see such fluctuations, which would affect the Bank of France's financial regulation~www.mtlnovel.com~ Jerome Bonaparte continued: "No, They won't! European banks will work together to suppress this volatility to stabilize the price of gold, but those "groundhogs" in California can't wait for European banks to act, I will put them all The gold in our hands is gathered and then slowly sold out. Every fluctuation can make the European banks pay for our actions!”

Jerome Bonaparte's blueprint made several people in the room swallowed.

If Jérôme Bonaparte's plan was to succeed, more than 100,000 miners across California would have to serve them.

Of course, this is also a method that takes into account the local self-government conditions of the federal government of the United States.

In this era, the power of the central government in the United States cannot be compared with that of later generations. The power of the states rests in the hands of the state governments, that is, the members of their choice.

It is many times easier to bribe the price of a parliamentarian than it is to bribe a country.

If the United States can be as centralized as France, then Jerome Bonaparte's plans will be hit hard as soon as they appear.

"Your Majesty, I am willing to obey your orders!" Manet immediately joined Jerome Bonaparte's plan.

Emile Perel, Adolf Schneider, and Count Argoux also joined them.

In order to complete Jerome Bonaparte's plan, Magnet contributed 8 million francs, Adolf Schneider contributed 6 million francs, Emile Perel contributed 10 million francs, Count Argoux contributed 10 million francs, and Gerrault contributed 10 million francs. Mbonabas used the gold mine as collateral to "contribute" a discount of 10 million francs.
