Make France Great Again

Chapter 165 Concern Steel Company

Jerome Bonaparte took the drawing in his hand, and took a pencil from the dark red oak pen holder engraved with Napoleon crossing the Alps.

Although the pencils of this era are the embryonic form of pencils of later generations, there are still some differences between the two.

Pencils in the 19th century were not only expensive, but also far less rigid than later generations. With a little effort, the tip of the pen was easily broken.

In addition, the main material of pencils in this era is graphite, and France is a country where graphite is scarce. Even pencils with greatly reduced graphite content after Comte’s improvement are not difficult to meet the huge demand of France. It also has to rely on imported graphite, and most of the pens made of imported graphite are used to satisfy the French army and engineering.

Pessini and Eugene Schneider looked at the busy Jerome Bonaparte curiously, fidgeting on the sofa, they didn't understand what Jerome Bonaparte wanted to do.

Jerome Bonaparte, holding a drawing in his left hand and a pencil in his right, returned to the sofa and spread the drawing on the square table in front of Persini and Eugene Schneider.

Along with the unfolding of the blueprint, a thing that looks like a stove and its function is unknown leaps above the blueprint.

The furnace on the drawing is a half-section structure, and every place is marked in French in detail.

"Your Majesty, this is..." Pessini pointed to the stove on the drawing and asked in bewilderment.

"Guess!" Jerome Bonaparte threw his pen on the table and fell down on the sofa.

"This..." Pesini, who knew nothing about mechanics, obviously didn't know the usefulness of this stove, so he could only turn his attention to the "technical house" Eugene Schneider.

Eugene Schneider, who was standing aside, pressed his hands on the table as if possessed at the moment, as if his whole body was about to merge with the table.

"The pen is there!" Jerome Bonaparte reminded him "kindly".

Eugene Schneider raised his head slightly, stretched out his hand to hold the pencil in front of the drawing, and kept drawing on the drawing.

"Your Majesty, he..." Pessini pointed at Eugene Schneider, he was worried that Eugene Schneider's recklessness would leave a bad impression on Jerome Bonaparte.

Although Eugene Schneider was ordered by the president to look for him, in the communication with Eugene Schneider, Pessini has gradually been "convinced" by Qian Jing who understands Eugene Schneider, not to mention that his brother is still a little powerful As a banker, Persini felt that he should help him.

"It's okay!" Jerome Bonaparte waved his hand generously, and said nonchalantly, "An inventor! There are always some weird hobbies! Sit down too, Persini!"

"Yes!" Under Jerome Bonaparte's order, Persini also nodded and sat down.

The two quietly watched Eugene Schneider's personal performance, and neither of them thought of interrupting this "interesting" inventor.

Eugene Schneider didn't put down his pencil until the servant outside the door brought three steaming cups of coffee and a pot of coffee pot on an aluminum tray.

At this time, the drawings are already covered with dense lines, and there are basically no mistakes in the direction of the lines. In some places, the direction of ventilation is specially marked.

As expected of the founder of Schneider, he really should not be underestimated.

Jerome Bonaparte, who originally thought that Eugene Schneider would take a while to fully understand the drawings, did not expect that Eugene Schneider could completely understand the drawings in such a short period of time.

You must know that the original self (previous life) took nearly a week to figure out the principle of this thing.

"Your Excellency the President!" Eugene Schneider asked excitedly with his bright eyes, "Where did you get this picture?"

After all, Eugene Schneider rubbed his hands, and Jerome Bonaparte and Persini had a panoramic view of the little girl in his heart.

Compared with his brother Adolf Schneider, Eugene Schneider still needs a long way to go.

"Sit down! Sit down and talk!" Jerome Bonaparte raised his hand to signal Eugene Schneider to sit down.

Eugène Schneider listened to Jerome Bonaparte and sat on the sofa, still staring at the drawings on the table from time to time.

"Put it away!" Jerome Bonaparte turned to Persini and said.

"Yes!" Pessini nodded and stood up to put away the drawings spread out on the square table.

Eugène Schneider's expression reveals longing and entanglement, just like a wanderer who accidentally sees the object of his heart, but is rejected by the object of his heart.

Great! I just want to see your unattainable expression!

Jerome Bonaparte cheered inwardly. It was also a kind of enjoyment to watch the "famous" historical figures deflate.

"Let's drink coffee!" Jerome Bonaparte hooked his hand to signal the attendant to come in.

The attendant carefully passed through the gap between the two red velvet sofas and placed the tray on the table, then blocked three cups of coffee in front of the three of them, put the coffee pot in the middle, and finally took the tray away.

Jerome Bonaparte picked up the coffee and took a leisurely sip, then made a gesture of invitation.

The anxious Eugene Schneider didn't mean to drink coffee. He knew that once this technology spread, then cheap steel would definitely destroy his company.

No matter how much he reduces the cost, he can't stop it!

Eugene Schneider took a sip of coffee, and Eugene Schneider drank half of the coffee cup directly. The scorching heat from his throat and the urging made Eugene Schneider's expression slightly distorted.

"Mr. President, can you tell me the owner of the drawing now?" Eugene Schneider asked Jerome Bonaparte impatiently.

"Mr. Schneider, if it were your brother, he would never speak to me in this tone!" Jerome Bonaparte said coldly.

Eugene Schneider's fiery heart seemed to be frozen by a burst of ice. He suddenly remembered that this was the president's office, and sitting opposite him was the most powerful person in France. How could he speak to him in such a tone!

"President... Mr. President, I... I'm sorry..." Eugene Schneider apologized to Jerome Bonaparte in order not to bring disaster to the Schneider family, but because of the influence of the just hot coffee, Eugene Schneider's The tongue is a little fuzzy.

"Nothing! Be more careful next time!" Jerome Bonaparte said with a relaxed attitude.

"Mr. President, that... that... May I ask the owner of the drawings..." Eugene Schneider asked Jerome Bonaparte cautiously, resisting the pain on the tip of his tongue.

"It's me!" said Jerome Bonaparte frankly.

Pessini and Eugene Schneider gave Jerome Bonaparte a surprised look at the same time. They seemed a little unwilling to believe this fact?

"Why don't you believe it?" Jerome Bonaparte took another sip of his coffee.

"Believe it! Believe it!" Eugene Schneider nodded quickly.

The drawing itself has no signature, as long as no one claims it, it belongs to the president. (American Kelly :p)

"Mr. President, I wonder if this drawing of yours can..." Eugene Schneider asked Jerome Bonaparte more carefully.

"I have already applied for a patent for this drawing, and I will not accept it once!" Jerome Bonaparte said firmly, which also cut off Eugene Schneider's luck.

yes! As the most powerful person in France, Mr. President will not bother about money at all. As long as he wants to, patents can make him a lot of money.

"Then Mr. President, what do you want?" Eugene Schneider knew that Jerome Bonaparte must want something.

"I will provide the technology, and you will provide the people. How about some of us in the United Nations jointly establish a steel company?" Jerome Bonaparte proposed.

"This..." Eugene Schneider hesitated. He didn't want the kingdom he worked so hard to mix with other forces, even if he gave more money than the Iron Kingdom itself!

Eugene Schneider also understands that once he rejects the president's olive branch, the Schneider family behind him may suffer disaster.

The Schneider family, which had already been crushed by the collapsed ruins of the July Dynasty, could not withstand the suppression of the president. As for the "friends" that the Schneider family had painstakingly managed, they would turn into shameless robbers and loot them all in the first place.

Friends are the most unreliable thing these days.

"Your Excellency, how many shares do you want!" Eugene Schneider yielded.

After thinking for a long time, Jerome Bonaparte stretched out three fingers and said, "How about 30% of the shares? Don't worry, I will not interfere with Schneider's operations!"

Eugene Schneider, who was already planning to bleed, was relieved when he heard Jérôme Bonaparte's quotation. The order from the Ministry of Public Works plus new technology can be regarded as a "reasonable" quotation.

"Welcome to join, Your Excellency the President!" Eugene Schneider said to Jerome Bonaparte.

"Mr. Schneider, you should call Your Majesty!" Pessini booed from the side.

"Yes! Your Majesty!" Eugene Schneider responded.

"How about opening a new company in Lorraine? The iron mines there can meet our needs!" Rather than saying that Jerome Bonaparte asked Eugene Schneider, it would be better to say that Jérôme Bonaparte gave Eugene Schneider a strong order.

"Of course, Your Majesty! It's just that I'm worried that the people there will..." Eugene Schneider was a little worried about the influence of local snakes.

"Humph! Those guys!" Jerome Bonaparte snorted coldly and said, "If they are willing to join in, we will let them drink soup! If they intend to obstruct, I don't mind uprooting them!"
