Vol 3 Chapter 619 Queen, I want New Zealand, can you agree

Princess Louis seems to like these topics very much, not only attracting Queen Victoria, Queen Sophie and other women, but even William III, brother Crown Prince Edward, and fiance Crown Prince Frederick look over with curiosity, even if it is William IV. The world was also surprised.

Princess Louise seemed to be envious and said:

“British aristocratic ladies, including myself, are like many European ladies, clients of such Dutch luxury goods as Alexandra-Royal Cologne and Alexandra-Royal Louis Vuitton, and the British , the French royal family and the nobles of the two countries are also the largest consumer market for these luxury goods groups.

What many people don’t even know is that Queen Eugenie, who is currently the Regent of France, is also a major customer of Card (D) Asia Jewelry under the Alexandra Luxury Group. Except for Queen Alexandra’s own use, Queen Eugenie was also the first royal client of other European countries for these luxury goods, and the largest individual clientele. ”

When Queen Victoria heard the words, it was difficult to keep calm on her face. For the first time, she showed a panic that should not appear with the monarch of the most powerful country in the world. Obviously, she seemed to have guessed something incredible.

Several other people also thought of many things. Therefore, these people couldn’t help but think that William IV emphasized that the ruler of Paris was Queen Eugenie, not Napoleon III, who was defending in Randy on the front line.

Princess Louise didn’t seem to know a few short words, which caused a huge wave in the hearts of several people.

She continued: “It took four years from 1863 to 1866 for these brands to truly become famous.

Because I am also a senior member of these brands, I know that 90% of the British royal family and aristocrats plan to be wiped out. Brother, the perfume you are wearing now is also one of a series of royal cologne perfumes. ”

Ignoring Prince Edward’s discoloration, she continued: “It is said that King Luis I of Portugal liked the Alexandra-Cartier jewelry brand very much, and before the 5th anniversary of his accession in November 1866, he was at a gala dinner in Lisbon. At that time, he specially ordered 27 Mianzhuang headdresses from this brand for the celebration ceremony, which caused a sensation in Europe at that time, and then the commissions of royal jewelers from more than a dozen countries flocked to this brand continuously. It is precisely because of the orders from various royal families that nobles from all over the world follow the trend, and this brand has been called ‘the emperor’s jeweler, the jeweler’s emperor’ all over the world after four years of high-profile moments.”

Finally, Princess Louise said to William IV: “In just 7 years, Queen Alexandra became the Director General of the World Organization International Women’s Union, and at the same time she has created the world’s largest jeweler, perfume and luxury bag. The Alexandra Group, a luxury brand that integrates bags and other items, is terrifying.

It has to be said that Queen Alexandra became an icon for many of our young European women. ”

With the various “truths” that Princess Louise “confided”, the others present, except William IV, couldn’t help but feel cold.

Queen Sophie, who was a little dissatisfied under the guidance of Queen Victoria just now, heard the appearance of these sets of data, and she already realized that she had been underestimating her eldest daughter-in-law before.

Especially when she heard the envious tone of Princess Louise, the second daughter-in-law after tomorrow, she actually felt a little pride.

Alexandra is my daughter-in-law!

If there is any prospect, she is also the wife of my eldest son.

Thinking of this, when she looked at Queen Victoria again, she showed a little self-satisfaction.

This makes Queen Victoria a little weird.

Seeing the change in his mother’s attitude, William IV smiled. If they knew, these brands now sell goods worth more than 10 million pounds a year, second only to the East India Company and the second largest company in the Netherlands. Far East Group, the third largest company in the Netherlands.

Even in terms of profit, it almost goes hand in hand with the two major companies, which is amazing.

And recently Alexandra Group is also trying to enter the clothing industry.

At present, the Krinoline-style long dress, which is popular in European courts, has become a new highlight of the clothing company under the Alexandra Group.

In the previous life, it was designed by Voss, the court designer who was very fond of Queen Eugenie of the French Empire.

In 1866, a group bracing made of a ponytail for the steps woven by the warp, the conical “crinoline”, for commercialization, William IV also reminded Alexandra that it could be used when expanding production. Starched wool, silk, and cotton are used as an alternative to limit the number of horsetails, and ropes can also be used to tie iron wire and whalebone.

As soon as it came out in 1866, the Kronolin-style long skirt caused a sensation among the European nobles. It was considered by Europeans to be the most beautiful skirt in history.

At present, almost all European ladies wear drop-shoulder sleeveless tops, tower-sleeved shirts and trousers. This is also the most perfect style of romantic long skirts in the future.

Not only that, but the current European hair style and headwear have also changed with the popularity of the Crinoline dress launched by the Alexandra Group. With flowers, the hairstyle is relatively simple, and the exposed neck and **** are more prominent, because it is coordinated with the puffy skirt.

Wilhelm IV this is to lay the Netherlands to become the pinnacle of trends in Europe for the next few hundred years.

The appearance of the Kronolin long skirt has made the European royal family and aristocrats unknowingly penetrated by the cultural influence of the Netherlands without knowing it.

Take Queen Eugenie this time. In fact, before she came, he knew that passing through the Principality of Luxembourg and Prussia would definitely arouse the anger of the French, but he still dared to do it, because he knew that in this 19th century European high society, the anger of ordinary people , In fact, it can allow the upper management to exchange for more benefits that are better for herself. Queen Eugenie is a person who likes to compromise. Of course, because many people forget that Queen Eugenie belonged to the Spaniards when she was young.

And Queen Eugenie’s mother, the Countess of Montijo, was still the attendant of Isabella II when she was young, and it can also be said to be a nursing mother. Therefore, although the relationship between Isabella II of Spain and Napoleon III was strained, Queen Eugenie and Isabelle II were still sisters in private.

Isabella II has long been the one who threaded the needle for him and Queen Eugenie. I have to say that William IV had a different experience when he came to this world, because he found that many women in Europe at this time were actually The ambitions are very strong. Isabella II, Queen Eugenie, and the two mothers and daughters of Queen Victoria and Princess Louise in front of them, etc., are all calculated one by one.

It is precisely because of this that after he married Alexandra in 1863, he began to assist Alexandra in setting up a relationship network linking the upper-class nobles and royal women in various European countries.

Jewelry, perfume, bags, Krinoline-style dresses, etc. can attract upper-class ladies, become the intelligence network in charge of Alexandra, and slowly grasp the European royal palaces and aristocratic ladies. Every move.

It can be said that although it is only a few years in the beginning, it has achieved remarkable results.

Queen Victoria suddenly asked: “Her Majesty William IV is really good at economics, and the British Empire hopes to have people like this. But then again, if Queen Alexandra is willing to transfer these brands to us, we will I can give her a good price.”

William IV shook his head, “This is just a joke by Alexandra, and it can be considered a surprise, but if Her Majesty agrees, we have no objection to the transaction. I wonder if the Queen is interested?”

“How to deal?” Queen Victoria didn’t expect William IV to agree, and the others couldn’t help but look at him curiously.

Anyone with a discerning eye knows that these brands are all high-value brands, and they are still on the rise. William IV should also know that, they don’t think this transaction will be so cheap. Because of this, along with Queen Victoria, they were all interested in how William IV offered the price.

Queen Sophie was afraid that her son would suffer, and immediately gave a wink, but William IV’s unshakable appearance made her feel powerless. This guy grew up, but he was much more stubborn than before. .

William IV the lion said: “The Queen should have some idea of ​​the value of these brands. If the Queen agrees, I am willing to transfer the Royal Cologne to Her Majesty~www.readmtl.com~ It sold 50 million last year. Guilders, well, £2 million worth of perfume”

With the appearance of this data, although the people present had guessed that the number would not be small, they were still breathed for 5 seconds by the 2 million pounds.

What can £2 million buy in this era?

A steam battleship sold by the Netherlands to the Commonwealth of Millikin for £200,000.

The next 1st class European sailing battleship costs £100,000.

At present, the Netherlands, which has the highest GDP per capita in the world per year, is 150 pounds.

The second UK is only £120.

The Confederate States of America are now only £70

The Tsarist Empire is currently 20 pounds per capita.

Looking at the figures, don’t you know what the £2 million is worth?

Just because they knew, a few people couldn’t help but take a deep breath and try to keep themselves more gentleman.

£2 million! Queen Victoria was also taken aback by the number.

It’s not that she has never experienced such a big data. She has dealt with more than this before, but she did not expect that a small perfume business could become such a big industry, and it seems that the European perfume business is concentrated in the Netherlands. In her hands, as far as she knows, the Netherlands accounts for more than 90% of the business.

William IV actually took 2 million pounds of business to deal with her. Even she couldn’t help thinking about what William IV was thinking.

Fortunately, William IV didn’t have to wait long for her.

“If the Queen agrees and the British Parliament agrees, I am willing to buy the New Zealand Islands of the British Empire through sales channels, patented formulas, production processes, etc. I don’t know, what does the Queen think?”
