Make France Great Again

The party hosted by Baron Achille Fuld officially started with the arrival of two heavyweight guests, Jerome Bonaparte and Mathilde.

In the living room, all the "upper class" invited by Ahir Fuld gathered together in twos and threes to form one relatively independent circle after another. Of course, the people in each small circle are not static. If some of them get bored with this circle, they will take wine glasses from the trays of the hall attendants and go from one small circle to another small circle. The slogan (for example: Long Live the Republic, Long Live Napoleon, etc.) caused the other small circle to also hold up the wine glass and drank the wine in the glass, and the cups and chips would blend into it quietly.

Jerome Bonaparte and Mathilde, led by Achille Foulder, came before General Opper.

"His Royal Highness, this once served as the commander of the city defense of Paris, General Opel. Now he is serving as a member of the French National Assembly!" Ariel Fuld warmly introduced General Opple to Jerome Bonaparte.

"Your Highness!" General Opper looked a little nervously at Jerome Bonaparte as he extended his hand respectfully.

Jerome Bonaparte stretched out his hand and shook it with General Auper, and looked at General Auper.

From General Opper's beer belly figure and his non-standard stance, Jerome Bonaparte can confirm that the so-called general in front of him has probably not been on the front line for a long time to direct the battle, and then look at his smooth handling. With a professional smirk whose expression and standard can no longer be standard, it is not so much that he is a general, it is better to say that he used to be an excellent general, but now he has transformed into a pure politician.

Although Jerome Bonaparte was a little disappointed in his heart, he still looked at General Opper with a smile on his face.

"His Royal Highness, I once served as an officer under the emperor's command and followed His Majesty to participate in the Battle of Leipzig..." Eager to express himself, Opper eloquently discussed his series of great achievements under the command of his uncle, Emperor Napoleon. Major of the Bonaparte Guard.

Of course, there was no mention of how he joined the Bourbon dynasty after that, and how he was promoted to general. Jerome Bonaparte was also too lazy to ask about the promotion process after Opper.

In current France, more than half of the leaders at the general level have something to do with the First French Empire, and they more or less betrayed the empire on the eve of its demise.

Jerome Bonaparte did not intend to pursue their faults, because he knew that once they were investigated, the entire French army, especially the upper echelons of the army, could be characterized as betraying the emperor.

When a person is betrayed, Jerome Bonaparte throws them away like trash.

If a class betrays, Jerome Bonaparte can only negotiate terms with them in a soft voice and win their support.

After Jerome Bonaparte listened to Opuld's bragging, his face showed a regretful expression, he spread his hands and said: "A man like a general cannot continue to fight for the Republic, but is trapped in the National Assembly. It's really overkill. If it were me, I would definitely invite you, General, to be the French Minister of War!"

General Opper showed an excited expression and said to Jerome Bonaparte: "If your highness needs me one day, I will do my best for your highness!"

"I look forward to cooperating with you, General!" Jerome Bonaparte nodded slightly to General Opper in front of him.

Upon seeing this, Ariel Fuld, who was standing beside Jerome Bonaparte, waved to the attendants standing behind the pillars in the living room, and two servants with trays appeared in front of Ariel Fuld.

Arhir Fuld handed the glasses of wine on the two trays to the people in the circle. He raised the glasses and said, "I propose to have a drink for the Empire!"

"Long live the Empire!" General Opper, who raised his glass, finally showed the heroic attitude of a soldier, and he drank the Bordeaux wine in the glass.

"Long live the Empire!" Jerome Bonaparte also drank the red wine in the glass.

"General Opper, I will take His Excellency the Prince for a walk elsewhere! I hope you can have fun!" Arshil Fuld said to General Opper.

"I wish His Excellency the Prince have a good time!" General Opper once again expressed his blessing to Jerome Bona, and decisively ignored Ahir Fuld, who was the initiator of the party.

Ahir Fuld, who has been trained to be calm on weekdays, still kept smiling.

Under his leadership, Jerome Bonaparte was integrated into dozens of small circles.

Most of these small circles are newspapers and some industrial factory owners, and only a few are composed of bankers and famous writers in Paris.

No matter which circle he is in, Jerome Bonaparte always faces with a smile~www.readwn.com~ Jerome Bonaparte's attitude has successfully made all the people in the small circle feel good about him , several newspaper reporters blushed and promised to vigorously publicize Jerome Bonaparte.

Looking at their flushed faces, Jerome Bonaparte was convinced that their assurances were nothing but drunken gaffes.

Fortunately, however, he was granted interest-free loans from several bankers.

Compared with those eloquent editors, bankers who value their own credibility are more welcomed by Jerome Bonaparte.

The party did not end until 2:00 in the morning. After nearly two or three hours of staggering, Jerome Bonaparte did not fall down. The stimulation of alcohol made his brain more flexible.

Jerome Bonaparte and Mathilde got into the carriage again under the "escort" of General Ariel Fuld and General Opper.

On the carriage, Jerome Bonaparte and Mathilde once again talked about General Opel just now.

"What do you think of that fellow Opper?" Mathilde asked Jerome Bonaparte.

"A botched general who wants to be a high-ranking politician!" Jerome Bonaparte responded without hesitation.

"So, he has no value to win over?" Mathilde asked again.

"Whether a person is worth wooing depends on whether he can create value for us at the right time!" Jerome Bonaparte explained: "I just said that Opper was a poor general who wanted to be a high-ranking politician, not Say he has no value! A politician like this can only be used as a temporary excessive figure! If there is no candidate for the Secretary of War after I become president! Opper is a good military mascot! From this face to face , Opper played a bigger role than everyone else today!"
