Holy Roman Empire

Snow flew down, white as jade, like a messenger sent by God, waving blessings to believers.

The dwelling Parisian people walked out of the house one after another, frolicking in the snow with the children and enjoying the wonderful time.

"Snow" is rare for the people of Paris.In the memory of Medicis, the last snow in Paris was many years ago.

How many years has it been, Medicis can't remember.For people who are hungry and cold, "snow" is not a good thing, and there is no need to commemorate it.

This year is an exception. The dividend brought by the Russo-Prussian War is not only enjoyed by Austria, but also by France.

Against the backdrop of great economic prosperity, the social contradictions in France tended to ease. The most obvious is that the lives of the people in Paris are better off.

In this regard, Medicis is the most deeply touched. As a small newsstand owner, he has a unique method of discrimination.

Most French people are keen on politics, and as long as economic conditions permit, they will order several newspapers.The sales of newspapers also reflect the French economy to some extent.

In this respect, the people of Paris are proud.French newspaper sales rank first in the world all year round, and the Parisian people contribute half of its sales.

If you rank global newspaper sales, you will come to an interesting conclusion: France, Austria, Britain, and Paris.

This is not a joke, but it really happened.

The political sensitivity of the Parisian people can be said to be the highest in the world. It is right to distinguish between Parisians and countrymen and see if he commented on political news.

"Medicis, I'll fetch the newspaper."

A familiar voice rang out, pulling out Medicis, obsessed with reading the newspaper.

If there is a business coming home, it is natural to receive it.Putting down the newspaper in his hand, Medicis smiled slightly: "Rules, is it still the same?"

During the talk, Medicis had taken out a stack of newspapers that had been prepared and placed it on top.

The middle-aged man frowned and said angrily: "Of course. Medicis, don't you know me yet?"

Medicis was also not annoyed, and still said with a smile: "Rules, be patient. You are so grumpy, you are all old, can't you change it?"

Rules shook his head: "Forget it, I'm a lot of age, what else should I change!"

Judging from the average life expectancy in France, Rules, who is over forty, is indeed an old man.However, the average thing is often the most biased.

Those with real short life expectancy are mainly workers at the bottom.The lifespan of nobles and wealthy people is not short at all.

Medicis shook his head without continuing to persuade.Read a little in the newspaper and say, "Well, Ruhrs. This is the newspaper you want, get it yourself."

What seemed to come to mind, Medicis added: "By the way, the international edition of the Paris News today is good, you should be interested."

A glance at the headline was awesome that "The Anglo-French League of Three Nations is about to disintegrate."

Rules' face changed dramatically. As a qualified Parisian, the importance of the three-nation alliance was clear.Quickly asked: "What happened?"

Medicis replied calmly: "Don't make a fuss, things are not so serious, just a little friction has occurred in South America, I believe the government can handle it."

It is concise and concise, but the specific content is never mentioned.This is the experience summed up by Medicis in his many years of selling newspapers. If he made things clear, why would he buy newspapers?

Rolls rolled his eyes: "Give me a copy and settle it together on the weekend."

No way, since Napoleon III opened the retirement pension system, the avant-garde Rules has become the Zhou Guang tribe.

In addition to leaving the necessary family expenses, the rest of the money has been spent early, it is now Saturday, naturally no money in his pocket.

Regardless of whether this consumption pattern is good or bad, stimulating economic development is true.

In the case of slightly lower income, the French people can have per capita consumption that is not weaker than Austria, and stimulating the economy is also an important factor.

Of course, in this era, there is no credit card, and advance consumption is not popular.Even the most avant-garde Paris is just moving in and out.

"As you wish!" After that, after looking at the snow outside, Medicis added: "But I think now you need another cup of coffee, preferably with a piece of bread, and even solve it with dinner. "

"This proposal is great. However, Medicis, it's really awkward for you to open a newsstand. If you do anything else, it's your business acumen that makes you rich." Rules sighed.

The combination of "newsstand + coffee shop + bakery" is difficult to be unobtrusive. Many people think that Medicis is the guardian of the small shop.

Obviously, Medicis is a wise man, knowing that he has some patience.

"Newsstand + Cafe + Bakery" looks very creative. In fact, there is no combination of technical content, and the core selling point is "cheap".

Medicis never thought he was a genius, but he was better at observing than others and chose a suitable location to open a store.

Otherwise, this kind of business model that anyone can imitate without any difficulty, why not fill the streets?

If you really enter into other industries, ordinary people like him might have been swallowed up.

Medicis replied with a smile: "Thank you for the compliment, but I think it's good to open a newsstand. Nothing else can be done."

Ruhrs did not continue this topic, the relationship between the two has not yet reached that point, a joke is OK, if really persuaded Medicis to switch, he would not be willing.

There are not many such convenient and cheap places even in Paris.If Medicis changed his course, he would run more roads every day.

After receiving the newspaper from Medicis, he entered the backyard directly, found a seat, and sat down quietly, reading the newspaper.

The changes in South America are not something that a newspaper company can figure out. The above content is naturally based on limited data analysis and a large number of brain supplements to draw conclusions.

The original diplomatic wars between Chile, Bolivia and Peru were lifted to the diplomatic wars between Britain and France and Austria, as if the three countries were about to turn against the British.

No, Britain and France are inherently feuds and do not need to look back.

Newspapers in this era still have a certain temperament. Since they dare to publish it, there are certain grounds and they will not make fun of their credibility.

After reading the newspaper in one breath, Ruls took a breath.

The newspaper detailed the conflicts of interest between the three countries of Britain, France and Austria in South America, and clearly pointed out that in the "Bird War", the British supported Chile and Fau supported Peru and Bolivia.

With so much evidence, it is easy to draw conclusions about problems in the relationship between the three countries.In this context, the dissolution of the three-nation alliance also seems not impossible.

"Damn Briton, still so greedy, dare to ignore our interests!"

Someone took the lead in scolding and instantly aroused everyone's agreement. Scolding the British is also one of the daily entertainments of the Parisian people.

"What's so strange, the Britons have always been so shameless. To be an ally with them is to dance with the devil ..."

"Yes, this group of damn John Bulls should all go to hell ..."

...

Looking at the hot conversation that everyone is talking about, Ruls also joined in to comment: "Peru is too ruined, it is ashamed of us, and even Chileans can't beat it."

A young man responded: "Not only is Peruvian waste, but Bolivia supported by Austria is also a pig teammate, actually letting soldiers carry bows and arrows to the battlefield. Ah, God! Do they think this is the Middle Ages?

It is really unimaginable, is it possible that the Vienna government is a group of idiots?Even the rifle was reluctant to equip them.It's too bad to have such a group of idiots as allies."

"There is even worse, it is said that after the war, the Chileans seized the two regiments of army equipment in the hands of the Bolivian army. It has been more than a month, and the officers have not been delivered to the soldiers ..."

...

Gossip news is flying everywhere, and the topic is inevitable.In this era of no entertainment, groups of three to five bragging together have become a unique landscape.

...

At the Palace of Versailles, Napoleon IV threw away the newspaper in his hand.When did the "British-French-Austrian League collapse"?Why didn't he know this, is this a joke?

The alliance has not reached the point of collapse, but the situation in South America still gives Napoleon IV a headache.The advantage of the British is too great, even if the two countries are on the same front, they can only barely compete with it.

It is almost impossible to replace the British and gain hegemony in South America.

Unless this South American war, Peru and Bolivia can counterattack Chile and knock off the flag that the British controlled South America.

Foreign Minister Dumbledore: "Your Majesty, the Austrians' position is very clear. They hope we can work together to keep Colombia neutral and preserve the final lifeline of the Secret League."

There is no need to say this question. If you want the Mystic Alliance to win the war, you must help them keep this lifeline.

Without hesitation, Napoleon IV nodded immediately: "This is not a problem. Stabilizing Colombia itself is one of our tasks. However, this alone may not be enough.

The Chileans have gained the upper hand on the South American battlefield, and Peru and Bolivia are both idiots. I have absolutely no confidence in them."

No wonder that Napoleon IV was pessimistic. There are really too many jokes on the battlefield.In many cases, the Secret Wave Alliance Road has an advantage, and the possibility of winning the war is very high, and they all end in failure.

In addition to the military combat garbage of the two countries, the IQ of the government's bureaucrats is also worrying.The neighbors were drawn by the enemy, and he knew nothing about it in advance.
