"Find out the bottom line of your opponents, my friend may be able to give you some help."

"Your friend?" Aigron finally became interested again when he heard this. "who is it?"

"A very shrewd and capable man, now a banker to be precise." Lucien Bonaparte replied.

"Banker?" Aigron was puzzled, so he looked at his uncle, waiting for his further explanation.

Lucien Bonaparte stopped suddenly. He looked at the wine glass in front of him, his eyes seemed to be full of emotion.

"Let me tell you a story—"

He picked up the glass, took a sip of the wine, and continued talking.

"You all know that in 1799 I followed my brother in the Brumaire coup and seized France. As a due return, my brother appointed me Minister of the Interior. At that time, I was really high-spirited and only wanted to do something big. .But you need money to do big things, and I happen to be short of money—so I want to find a reliable agent who can save me enough capital.

Fortunately, as long as I have the power, all these troubles will be nothing after all. Soon, many people in Paris came to me, hoping to establish a good relationship with me and my brother in exchange for economic benefits.

However, I look down on this group of well-dressed guys. They are all hypocritical and cunning. Besides, these bankers have been in the market for so many years, and their relationship network is very complicated. I don't want my secrets to be in their hands. I want to find someone who is reliable and easy to control, and let him handle this matter for me.

I am French, but I am also a Corsican, so I put all these calculations in my heart, and then silently observed the surroundings, patiently looking for suitable candidates..."

"It looks like you found it." Aigron probably understood what he meant.

"Yes, I found it, but the process was a bit unexpected." Prince Lucien Bonaparte nodded slightly, and then continued, "You know, as the Minister of the Interior at that time, I had the right to appoint Senior officials also have the right to manage the country’s roads and ports, and they have to deal with petition letters from all over the country. One day I received a petition letter written by a small local bank manager. He sadly told us about the revolutionary era The chaotic financial policy and monetary policy have caused harm to the local area, and begged my brother and I to reform as soon as possible in order to solve the chaos of the French economy and relieve the suffering of the people; in this petition he also listed a lot of data, and Some suggestions, although I don't know much about finance, I think what he said makes sense."

"So you passed on these suggestions to my father?" Aigron asked back.

"Yes, I conveyed this petition letter to him, and he was also very interested. At that time, there were general voices in the financial circles, hoping that we, who had just seized power, would make due decisions to stabilize the national economy." Lu Xi'an Bonaparte replied in a low voice, "So after a while, after careful consideration, Napoleon complied with these appeals, created the Bank of France, and then issued a new franc currency, which finally brought chaos to the financial and currency world. The market has stabilized."
