The carnival on the Paris Stock Exchange did not subside until two days later.

Investors with insufficient capital were forced to turn their attention to other companies in the stock market, because the shares of National Silver Company had risen to twice the issue price in the past two days.

And those holders of major funds are still tirelessly devouring the remaining stocks of all national silver companies.

As for the stocks of other companies on the market, they have also generally risen, driven by the strength of the National Silver Company.

Especially those mining companies, many hedge funds poured large sums of money into these companies in order to avoid the small risks of the national silver companies, causing their stocks to rise by nearly 30%.

No matter whether they make more or less, almost every investor who steps into the stock exchange has gained a lot, and the entire financial market is booming.

Everyone walking in the Exchange Square is filled with confident and joyful smiles, and the wallets around their waists are much richer than in the past few days, even the investors with the lowest abilities.

Even in the shabby bistros and cafes in Paris, there are many working class people talking loudly about the changes in the financial market in the past few days.

Although they know nothing about the illusory and complex financial market, the news that someone has become rich overnight has been reported in the newspapers these days and they can't help but feel itchy.

Many workers and ordinary citizens even got together and pooled their modest wealth to jointly invest in the securities industry, hoping to make a fortune in this wave.

However, for Lawrence, the architect of this boom, he is no longer so concerned about the subsequent changes in financial markets.

After all, the cash flow of ten million livres has been obtained.

Moreover, Lawrence will not have the idea of ​​issuing new shares or selling his shares in the short term.

That would only undermine the positive market sentiment and make it appear that Lawrence is here to make money in the financial markets.

...

Although the financial carnival gradually subsided, Prince Louis was still very excited about it.

"Hey, Lawrence, look, I was also mentioned in today's newspaper."

In the Palace of Tuyinlery, Crown Prince Louis walked into Lawrence's room early in the morning with today's morning newspaper, pointed to the report above excitedly and said:

"They say I am the savior of the financial market, and some people have proposed erecting a statue of me in the Exchange Square. I think this is a good idea."

Lawrence casually took the newspaper and read it twice. Many newspapers attributed this financial boom to Prince Louis's press conference.

In particular, those financial newspapers directly called Prince Louis a savior and praised his support for the liberal economy in their reports. The flattery alone took up half of the page.

This is not surprising. Although these bourgeois-dominated newspapers often ridicule and ridicule the royal family, this time they benefited greatly from Crown Prince Louis's statement, and naturally they did not hesitate to praise it.

As long as they can make profits, it is commonplace for capitalists to flip through books and change their faces.

"Very reasonable, Your Highness, your outstanding work has conquered those reporters."

Lawrence handed the newspaper back to Prince Louis and affirmed with a smile.

"Hahaha, maybe a little bit, but these newspapers are really weird."

Crown Prince Louis laughed smugly twice and said:

"A few days ago they attacked me, saying that I came to Paris to destroy the entire financial world and to drag the French economy into the quagmire. But today I became the savior, and some people even said that my press conference

The results are more significant than those of the Minister of Finance in ten years of work.”

"To a certain extent, they are right, Your Highness." Lawrence narrowed his eyes, clapped loudly a few times, and flattered in a non-flattering manner.

Prince Louis smiled proudly for a while, then remembered something and said quickly:

"Ah, of course, Lawrence,

You planned this press conference, and your contribution is greater than mine. I should notify these newspapers, and I can't let them miss your contribution."

"Oh! Your Highness."

After hearing this, Lawrence shook his head repeatedly and said sincerely:

"I just did a small job. If there is any credit, it should be credited to you. After all, I am your loyal and humble servant. I must not overwhelm you."

"My dear Lawrence, you are truly my best friend, my most loyal attendant, and my most capable right-hand man."

Prince Louis, who was new to the world, thought that Lawrence had deliberately given all the credit to himself. He immediately grabbed Lawrence's right hand excitedly and said from the bottom of his heart:

"I really don't know what I would do without you!"

Although Crown Prince Louis was a little carried away by the complimentary words in the newspapers, he still knew very well who was behind the dramatic turnaround in his reputation.

Especially since Lawrence now attributes all the prosperity of the financial market to himself, Prince Louis was even more moved.

Of course, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will never know in his lifetime that the bad reputation he had when he first arrived in Paris was the result of Lawrence's promotion.

"You have said so, Your Highness."

Lawrence smiled and shook his head and said, he knew that after this incident, his position in the heart of Prince Louis was almost irreplaceable.

At this time, Prince Louis suddenly noticed that Lawrence was also wearing a grand tuxedo in the room, so he asked curiously:

"Huh? Are you ready to go out?"

"Yes, Your Highness, the Duke of Choiseul invited me to his mansion to discuss something."

Lawrence nodded, and after thinking for a while, he decided to tell Prince Louis about Count Falcone's attack on him:

"As you may know, I was attacked on my way to Versailles a few days ago."

"Oh yes, I have heard of it." Prince Louis' face became serious and he said with his jaw:

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "My grandfather was particularly angry because of this incident. Have you found out who instigated it now?"

Lawrence spread his hands, made a very helpless expression, sighed and said:

"Unfortunately, the Royal Guards' investigation yielded almost nothing."

Prince Louis said very puzzledly:

"Still no results? My grandfather is so angry. Are the Royal Guards too incompetent?!"

"Oh Your Highness, it's not that they can't find out, they just can't find out." Lawrence shook his head and whispered.

Crown Prince Louis was stunned for a moment and asked urgently:

"Can't check? What do you mean...?"

Lawrence raised his head, stared directly into Prince Louis' eyes, and said in a deep voice:

"Although there is no evidence yet, this matter is inseparable from Duke Richelieu. And the person who directly ordered the attack... is not surprisingly Count Falcone."

"What?!"

Crown Prince Louis glared. Although he was very slow about politics, he immediately reacted when he heard the name Count Falcone. This must be Count Falcone having a grudge against Lawrence, which is why he did such an unpleasant thing.

A rational decision to attack.

And Prince Louis will never forget that the reason why Lawrence became enemies with Count Falcone was to stand up for himself.

In other words, in order to stand up for himself, Lawrence not only engaged in a dangerous pistol duel, but also suffered a brutal and bloody attack.

When he thought of this, Crown Prince Louis suddenly felt a sense of guilt in his heart.

"That bastard! It's so lawless. How dare he do this!"

Prince Louis glanced at Lawrence guiltily, and then shouted angrily:

"I am going to write a letter to my grandfather now, and I must check it carefully!"

Lawrence quickly patted Prince Louis on the shoulder, shook his head and said:

"Don't worry, Your Highness, such a letter will only make me more disadvantaged.

That’s all.”

After Louis XV received the letter from the Crown Prince, he would most likely think that Lawrence had instigated the Crown Prince to write this letter. This would only leave a bad impression on Louis XV that Lawrence was taking advantage of the Crown Prince.

Even if Louis XV ordered a thorough investigation of Duke Richelieu, Lawrence was very doubtful that the investigation would have a final result.

After all, after these days, Duke Richelieu must have eliminated all the evidence, leaving no trace that can be easily caught.

This is why Lawrence and the Duke of Choiseul have no hope of collecting evidence and can only try to fabricate evidence to frame the Duke of Richelieu.

Moreover, once the investigation yields no results, it will be confirmed that Lawrence used the crown prince to slander the Duke of Richelieu.

"More disadvantageous? That's... okay, but is that bastard going to get away with it like this?"

Although Crown Prince Louis didn't know why Lawrence said this, he still chose to believe it unconditionally, but he gritted his teeth reluctantly.

"No, Your Highness, the Duke of Choiseul and I will find evidence of his evil deeds."

Lawrence said softly:

"And only then can you personally push Count Falcone to the guillotine."

"I understand." Crown Prince Louis nodded seriously twice and said seriously.

Lawrence was slightly relieved when he saw this. With the assistance of Crown Prince Louis, it would be much easier to deal the final blow to Count Falcone and Duke Richelieu.

After all, the investigation between himself and Duke Choiseul was not an official investigation. If he wanted the evidence to be convinced by Louis XV, he would need a suitable person to present the evidence to Louis XV.

In addition, Lawrence also had his own selfish motives for choosing to reveal the matter to Prince Louis in advance.

Because in this way, Crown Prince Louis can use his guilt to bind him more closely to himself.

Although this method of moral kidnapping is very disgraceful, politics itself is not a glorious thing, and Lawrence doesn't care.
