The Sun Never Sets In Spain

Chapter 54: developing

The news that the Pope had sent people to see Alfonso was not kept secret, and soon spread throughout Paris.

Although the Pope’s authority is declining day after day, it still maintains a strong influence in Catholic countries such as Western France, especially among the people.

If the Pope can express his support for Alfonso in a clear-cut manner, then the probability of his return to the throne is greatly increased.

So many people are paying attention to Andrew's every move.

But Andrew was much safer than they thought. He neither made any remarks nor participated in social interactions. He just devoted himself to counseling Alfonso's practice and occasionally participated in the work of the Red Cross.

Gradually, everyone no longer cared about it, because there were more important things that attracted their attention.

The parliamentary elections that have lasted for several months finally come to an end. This election changed half of the seats in the parliament.

The Liberal Party became the largest party, occupying 120 of the 283 seats, and the Republican Party also accounted for 30.

The rapid growth of the left has disturbed many in the government.

As the workers' protests intensified, France became more active in preparing for a war with Prussia in order to divert internal conflicts. After all, no matter which faction it is, it likes to fight the Germans.

But at this moment, a bad news came.

The old marshal who had been actively promoting the reform of the military system, preparing to build the Mobile Guard, and the minister of war trusted by Napoleon III, Neil, failed the operation and died on the spot.

Marshal Neal is dead, and it is difficult to find another war minister in the army who is extremely prestigious and willing to support the reform.

The room leaked in the evening rain, and I was in a bad mood because of the parliamentary election. These days, I became very haggard and even a little moody.

I didn’t dare to say what was inconvenient to say. Now I will open my mouth. It is said that His Majesty the Emperor has spoken in private on many occasions: "I knew this would happen. We should go to war with Prussia three years ago!"

But no matter how upset it is to take three, the failure of military reform is already inevitable.

While the French political arena and the military were in violent turmoil, Wal-Mart's business was flourishing.

With hundreds of thousands of pounds of funds and official support from the government, there is no one enemy wherever he goes.

Although the first private supermarkets in other parts of France will not be squeezed into bankruptcy, there is no comparable volume to Wal-Mart.

Marseille, Lyon, Toulouse and other big cities in southern France have branches. The profitability and scale are naturally far less than Paris, but the most important thing for a company to go public is volume.

Since taking the third to power, the increasingly prosperous French financial sector is eagerly looking forward to the listing of Wal-Mart.

Zana plans to go public before the end of the year. If they can complete this feat as scheduled, they will set the record for the fastest emerging company to go public.

Wal-Mart's triumphant journey in France was hindered when it entered the markets of other countries.

The pot may have to be given to Alfonso. He went to Catalonia for a while, which delayed the injection of funds and also delayed the development of Wal-Mart and the speed of transnationalization.

Countries have followed the example of Wal-Mart and established their own supermarkets.

Although Wal-Mart has stated that it will share benefits with the country where it is located, including giving priority to hiring domestic employees, accepting domestic investment and so on.

But all countries want to eat it in one bite, so why do they share it with Wal-Mart.

Wal-Mart has nothing to do with this. As the first person to eat crabs, he will naturally get a generous benefit, but if you want more, it depends on your own ability.

Since supermarkets have no technical content and can be opened with money, Wal-Mart, which has no core competitiveness, will have to compete with supermarkets in other countries in the future.

This is a long job, and it may take Zana to fight for it all his life...

Andrew has been here for two months, during which time the Red Cross added a lot of religious attributes under his guidance.

This includes, but is not limited to, saying a prayer to God and reverence for the Roman Church when distributing free bread and free newspapers.

As for the teams in Protestant countries such as Prussia, just pray.

The effect is still good. With the endorsement of the church, the social acceptance has become stronger.

After learning that participating in medical training, volunteers can get a gold-plated medal jointly issued by the church and the Red Cross Committee, and get some gifts and cash rewards.

The public's attitude has become a lot more positive. After all, doing good deeds still has money, and everyone likes it very much.

Caroline’s father, although he loved his daughter, couldn’t help but was treated enthusiastically by the priest every time he went to church to pray. He praised Caroline for participating actively in volunteer activities.

Pious, he is also seriously considering, obeying his daughter's wishes, let her really apply for the position of field nurse.

But he had only this one offspring, and he couldn't make up his mind.

The turning point of the matter was on August 1, 69, when the Catholic Church and several countries participating in the Geneva Convention concluded another agreement.

The venue of this conference is in Rome, which is regarded as the 2.0 version of the Geneva Convention.

The terms that originally only protected the field rescue team have been expanded to also protect the wounded soldiers who receive rescue within the team.

This greatly reduces the possibility that when an enemy country attacks a wounded soldier, it will easily raise the group of doctors who are against it.

The security of field nurses has been greatly improved. After dispelling her father's concerns, Caroline finally became an honorable field nurse as she wished.

In his spare time, he can receive a meager salary on a monthly basis, in exchange for the need to be called up in wartime.

The Rome Convention has greatly strengthened the prestige of the church. The Pope is very satisfied with this and once again invites Alfonso to visit Rome as a guest.
