For Jérôme Bonaparte, the second mention of supervisors, Baroche is the first two.

In the high society of Paris, who does not know about the **** of Prince Monfort.

Back then, when Jerome Bonaparte was not yet president, many politicians were still making fun of Jerome Bonaparte's family.

As Jérôme Bonaparte has been in office for longer and longer, few people are making fun of these issues.

Especially after the emperor launched a coup to establish the Third Republic, many people kept silent about his family problems, for fear of causing unnecessary trouble for themselves.

Now that the emperor himself took the initiative to talk about this with him, Baros didn't understand the meaning behind the emperor for a while, was it to let him...

Jerome Bonaparte saw through Barroche's concerns at a glance, and he let Barroche relax with a chuckle: "Don't worry! There's no other meaning! I just arranged an errand for the unmasked nephew that I had. That's all! Otherwise, my old man might not be happy."

Jérôme Bonaparte's frank eyes and sincere words kept Baroche from thinking wildly.

"Whether it is Lucien Murat or Jerome Patterson, they are all laymen in finance! I hope you can teach them some financial knowledge so that they can gain more knowledge! Especially me That nephew..."

Jerome Bonaparte mentioned his nephew many times to Baroche, and the implication was to let Baroche give his nephew more opportunities to exercise.

Baroche, who had been up and down for many years, immediately understood what Jerome Bonaparte meant, and he hurriedly assured Jerome Bonapart that he would help Jerome Paterson well.

"Okay! I told you what I had to say! Just pass on what I said to those guys!" Jerome Bonaparte said to Baroche with a smile.

"Don't worry! I will definitely convey your will to them!" Baroche assured Jerome Bonaparte.

Then, Jerome Bonaparte invited Baroche to dinner.

After dinner, Baros left the Tuileries Palace.

On May 30, the railway minister, Baroche, sent an invitation to his semi-official committee, inviting all the bankers on the committee to a party.

Bankers including Alphonse Rothschild and Isaac Perel attended Baroche's party.

The venue for the meeting was set in the newly built Louvre Hotel. It is said that one of the shareholders behind the two hotels is Baros.

Of course, this is what the benevolent sees the benevolent and the wise sees the wisdom. How could the "clean and honest" Baros be the owner of this hotel!

The reason why Baros chose this hotel is purely because of the better service and attitude of this hotel, not for other reasons at all.

As for why the Louvre Hotel implements preferential policies for officials of the Ministry of Railways, this is of course to promote candid communication between the hotel management and government officials.

Absolutely no prerogatives!

The bankers who knew the insider of the hotel for a long time were naturally not too talkative. They were just wondering why the Minister of Railways asked them to come here at this time. It was impossible for them to really have a meal!

The bankers who were standing in the hall waiting for Baroche's summons gathered together in groups of three and five to whisper, discussing why Minister Baroche called them here, and Alphonse Rothschild was no exception. , Compared to these guys gathering together and guessing randomly, Alphonse prefers to focus on the guy who is very likely to know the inside story.

Looking around, Alphonse Rothschild quickly set his sights on banker Isaac Perel.

Since Jerome Bonaparte became president, the two brothers of the Perel family began to send money to the emperor in a different way, so the two brothers were deeply loved by the emperor and made a lot of money these years.

Alphonse also found out that Isaac Perel's brother, Emile Perel, was helping the emperor run the Societe Generale. In theory, he should be the most well-informed among their group.

So, Alphonse Rothschild approached Isaac Perel and asked in a low voice, "Mr. Isaac, what do you think Minister Baros is looking for us?"

Isaac Perel glanced at the son of his patron, shook his head and said, "I don't know more than you!"

Alphonse Rothschild, who had no clue from Isaac Perel's words, gave up asking Isaac Perel.

Think about it, if the Perel brothers really knew about the government's actions, they could not wait to send money to the emperor.

Now it seems that the banquet is not a good banquet!

Alphonse Rothschild, who had the mentality of taking one step at a time, did not speak, but quietly waited for Baros' summons.

Not long after, a squire appeared in front of the bankers and said respectfully to the bankers present: "The leaders of Bank Street, please come with me! Your Excellency Barroche has been waiting for you for a long time!"

After speaking, the attendant bowed and made an inviting gesture, then walked in front of the group to lead the way.

The banker also followed the footsteps of the attendants, stepping on the stairs with a Persian red carpet, and the attendants led the banker to the banquet hall on the third floor of the Louvre Hotel.

Pushing open the copper-plated door carved with the gods of ancient Greek mythology, the figure of the railway minister Baros appeared in front of everyone.

At this time, Baros was sitting at the main seat of a long dining table. There were selfie pear wood seats on both sides of the dining table, and two bronze candlesticks were placed on the white tablecloth. There is a burning candle, and around the candlestick is also the delicacy that Baros specially designed for today's party, including steak, French snails, foie gras, caviar and so on.

Although it can't be compared with the court banquet, it also cost Baros a lot of money.

"Everyone, please sit down!" Baros, who was sitting in the main seat, stretched out his hand and invited everyone present to sit down.

The bankers present sat down according to the names corresponding to the seats, and the one sitting next to Baroche was naturally the most powerful and youngest Alphonse Rothschild, and the younger and relatively old Baron Jean-Henri Houttinger (50).

One controlled all the operations of the French Rothschild family branch, and the other, through his wife, annexed the old man who was also the founding director of the Bank of France in 1848.

It can be said that they are the two oldest families among all the bankers present.

However, even the oldest Rothschild is only the third generation.

However, after three generations, the wealth owned by the Rothschild family has exceeded the wealth accumulated by the family in the previous tens or even hundreds of years.

With its open and hanging productivity, capital has completed the wealth accumulated for thousands of years in the feudal period.

Although the wealth of the bankers present could completely crush Baros, they did not dare to make trouble in front of Baros.

Just like just now, even if Baros wanted to hang them, they didn't dare to have a trace of complaints on their faces.

After everyone was seated, Baroche smiled and invited the bankers present to start. Most of the bankers did not come for their appetite at all. They simply cut a piece of steak from the plate, and then After stuffing it into his mouth, he put down the aluminum knife and fork in his hand.

The whole restaurant seemed to fall into a silent and awkward atmosphere.

"Eat it! Why don't you eat it! Isn't today's dish to your taste?" While enjoying the steak on the plate, Baroche invited the banker to continue enjoying the food.

"No, Your Excellency Minister, today's food is very delicious! We are very satisfied with your hospitality!" Jean-Henri Hoting and the baron immediately complimented Baroche, and then asked cautiously: "It's just that we don't Do you know what you want us to do for you and for the Empire?"

"Yes! Your Excellency Minister, as long as you speak, we are willing to do anything for the sake of the empire!"

"Your Excellency Minister, please tell us what we need to do!"

After having a successful career, the banker talked to Barosh in order to no longer worry about them, during which they did not forget to express their love for the empire.

As if no one loves the Empire more than they do!

Seeing the banker who was eager to throw his head and blood for the empire, Barosh didn't continue to sell, he put down the tableware in his hand, wiped his mouth and said calmly:

"Since you all can't wait to serve the empire, then I won't hide it! I do have an important thing to call you this time, and I want to announce it to you!"

The bankers listened intently to Barosh's next speech~www.novelhall.com~ for fear of missing out on the institution that made the fortune.

"The Empire will strengthen the supervision of railway bonds from June..." Baroche told Jérôme Bonaparte's strategy to all the bankers present.

Sure enough, the banker who heard the news that the Ministry of Railways asked to stop exchanging railway bonds immediately changed his face, and the atmosphere in the whole hall became abnormally depressed.

"What's the matter? Everyone, why are you all looking like this! Didn't you just say that you want to serve the empire?" Baros sternly reprimanded the banker, and he wanted to send all the grievances he suffered under the emperor. To them: "Is it true that what you said just now is a lie? Ask yourself, how much wealth it has brought to you after the establishment of the empire, and now the empire wants you to take out a few big sons, is it so difficult? Or? Say, you don't have an empire in your heart at all!"

"No! Your Excellency, we are very grateful for everything the Empire has done! They have created an environment suitable for investment, a stable government! It has enabled us to end the chaos and steadily expand our business! We should do something for the Empire. What we can do!"

The person who spoke was not Isaac Perel, but...
