"Your Majesty, you really hurt me!"

As soon as Jerome Bonaparte and Minister Dicko met, Minister Dicko complained to Jerome Bonaparte with a bitter face.

"Oh?" Jerome Bonaparte asked with a smile on his lips, "The distance between the two of us is nearly 60 to 70 miles, how can I influence you, the "Father of the Imperial Navy"? ?"

"Your Majesty, may I ask you a question?" Minister Dicko asked.

"Tell me!" Jerome Bonaparte asked, dropping his hands on the seat.

"Is my wife obeying your orders, Marseilles!" said the Chancellor Dicourt to Jérôme Bonaparte, unhurriedly.

"That's right! It's really me!" Jerome Bonaparte nodded and admitted, "Isn't the purpose of sending her there to take care of you!"

"However, she stopped all my work a few days ago!" Minister Dicko replied to Jerome Bonaparte in a slightly complaining tone: "And she also said that she was following your instructions. to do it!"

After listening to Minister Dicko's "complaint", Jerome Bonaparte's expression also became extraordinarily serious. Minister Dicko, who had been with Jerome Bonaparte for a long time, saw Jerome Bonaparte. After Bonaparte's expression, he immediately realized that Jerome Bonaparte's next words were likely to criticize his own remarks.

Otherwise, the emperor would not use such an expression to converse with him.

"Minister Dick, do you remember what you promised me before I left Marseille?" Jerome Bonaparte said solemnly.

"Your Majesty, do you mean to find orders for the Toulon shipyard?" Minister Dicko asked Jerome Bonaparte tentatively.

"No! No!" Jerome Bonaparte shook his head and responded to Minister Dicko.

"Or a cut to the Navy budget?" Minister Dicko guessed again.

"No!" Jerome Bonaparte shook his head again and responded to Minister Dicko.

"Your Majesty, I'm afraid I can't remember what I promised at the beginning! Please forgive me!" Minister Dicko apologized to Jerome Bonaparte.

"You don't remember, I remember it clearly!" Jerome Bonaparte said coldly to Minister Dicko: "When you were in Marseille, you promised me that I would cherish my body!

As a result, you cherish it in this way! Theodore Dicko, you're not too young anymore. You still think you're a young man in your 20s or 30s!

If you haven't slept for three or four days in a row, you're really not afraid of sudden death! "

Jerome Bonaparte's face-covering reprimand did not make Minister Dicko feel any humiliation, but made Minister Dicko feel a warmth.

After all, leaders who care about your life prove that they see you as their own.

If you are not your own, who will care about a stranger's work and rest.

"Your Majesty, I'm sorry for not abiding by what I agreed with you!" Minister Dick said sincerely to Jerome Bonaparte.

"Theodore Dicko, I'm warning you once! If you want to abuse your body, please tell me after you leave the Navy! I don't want to see an article "The Office of the Imperial Navy Minister Sudden Death" is published in the newspaper one day. , the reason is actually the news of staying up late"!

At that time, those opposition parties lurking in the dark will not know how to arrange us! "Jérôme Bonaparte, still furious, then rebuked Minister Dicko.

"Yes! Your Majesty, I will definitely abide by the agreement from now on!" Minister Dicko hurriedly assured Jerome Bonaparte, and then tentatively asked: "Your Majesty, can you ask my wife not to follow me? Back to Marseille together!"

"Impossible!" Jerome Bonaparte decisively refused Minister Dicko, "Your wife will continue to supervise your daily life on my behalf in the future, I hope you can be prepared!"

"Yes!" Dicko, who couldn't resist Jerome Bonaparte, had no choice but to obey.

"Really! Not only do I have to deal with a large number of documents every day, but I also have to ask you about those stupid things!" Jerome Bonaparte complained again.

"Your Majesty, you are in charge of every day, and you have worked hard!" Minister Dicko replied with a bow to Jerome Bonaparte.

"By the way, how are you preparing the materials for the Admiralty! Next Monday will be the imperial meeting, so don't give me the chain!

"Jérôme Bonaparte once again urged Minister Dicko to prepare materials in advance.

"Your Majesty, please rest assured! I will definitely list all the expenditures for the past year!" Minister Dicko responded to Jerome Bonaparte: "I assure you that every money you put into the Navy It's all worth it!"

"I hope so!" Jerome Bonaparte said sternly, and then asked: "Right! How do you see the progress of the latest ships?"

"It is expected to take nearly half a year to complete! However, if you want to launch, you have to wait until the end of this year!" Minister Dicko replied to Jerome Bonaparte.

Then he paused, and then responded to Jerome Bonaparte: "However, I already have data on new ships here!

Although it is only the preliminary estimated data of the designers of the design institute, it is almost the same as the actual data! "

After speaking, Minister Dicko took out the folded data and drawings from his pocket and handed it to Jerome Bonaparte.

The overall hull is designed with a wooden hull and iron armor, but the armor thickness is increased compared to the Friendship, so the protection performance has been improved. ..." Minister Dicko explained with all his might for Jérôme Bonaparte.

Jerome Bonaparte looked at the Corson-class ironclads with a few fewer single-column guns than the Friendship-class artillery, and asked Minister Dick if such a design would weaken the ironclads' attack capabilities.

"No, Your Majesty!" Minister Dicko responded confidently to Jerome Bonaparte, "After careful calculations, we finally concluded that the reduction in artillery will not affect the power of the ship!"

"That's good!" Jerome Bonaparte nodded and responded to Minister Dicko: "I am very satisfied with the design of the new ironclad ship! I hope you can make persistent efforts and continue!"

"Please rest assured! Our navy will definitely design better warships for the Empire!" Minister Dicko saluted Jerome Bonaparte with a solemn look on his face. Trident!"

"Cough...cough, just keep the last sentence in your heart!" Jerome Bonaparte cleared his throat and said to Minister Dicko, "The goal of our generation is to lay a solid foundation and strive to catch up with Britain. In the footsteps of , surpassing Britain is left to the next generation to complete!

There is a generation of work for a generation, and you can't be too hasty! "

"Yes! Your Majesty!" Minister Dicko responded in a sonorous tone.

Jerome Bonaparte raised his hand and said to the Chancellor of the Exchequer Manet, who was sitting in the second seat on her right: "Minister Manet, as the Minister of Finance of the Empire, it is up to you. Let's start! No problem!"

Magnet hurriedly got up with a serious face and responded to Jerome Bonaparte: "Your Majesty, I'm ready!"

Jerome Bonaparte patted the table lightly with his hand and responded with a stern expression: "Let's begin then!"

As Minister of Finance, Magnet first reported to Jerome Bonaparte the overall financial situation of the French Empire in 1855: as of December 1855, the total income of the French Empire was about 2.38 billion francs.
