Chapter 30 The beginning of the turmoil

In the early morning of May 5, 1848, the Polar Star published "On Bonaparte Thought and the British Democratic Movement" written by editor-in-chief Harney on May 4 as front-page news, in order to make it easier for readers to understand the news content (or

It is a shady and troubling criticism of the British government). The "Polar Star" thoughtfully printed an eye-catching ink painting in the lower right corner of the news. In the painting, a person is wearing a leif uniform, with a scimitar hanging on his waist and a headband.

The "little chubby guy" with a two-cornered hat (also known as a Napoleon hat) who looked very arrogant and arrogant pointed at the map in the painting at a pair of shivering men and women in the corner.

An image of bullying men and women, but on the right side of "Little Fatty" is a string of text, which reads: "I want to spread French ideas here, let your subjects resist you, let universal suffrage

Start by lighting up.”

That's all. The key is that the shape of the map in the painting is basically the same as the shape of the British Isles. The pair of men and women standing on the "Little Fatty", the man has a mustache, and the woman is short and tall.

Fat, you don’t need to explain in detail to understand that the man and woman are Victoria and Albert.

If someone looks more carefully, they will find that the structure of the so-called "lectern" is roughly the same as that of the parliament.

This painting alone is worth a thousand words. If it is paired with the content of an article, it will produce a magical chemical reaction, thus achieving the goal of spreading it to ten and hundreds of people, and then detonating the entire London public opinion circle.

Harney, who had published 70,000 newspapers in one breath, decisively pushed all the newspapers into the London market. He believed that London gentlemen who loved novelty would not refuse the "gift" that Harney prepared for them.

This country needs a reform to improve the existing system.

Sure enough, after the "North Star" was launched into the market, it only took one morning to capture nearly one-third of the London market, leaving less than 3,000 copies of the 70,000 newspapers.

"Editor-in-Chief, we succeeded! We succeeded!" A reporter staggered into the door and shouted at Hani, who was still revising the manuscript and translating with the school team in the editorial office.

At the same time, all the reporters in the Polar Star News raised their heads and looked at the reporter.

Facing the gazes of many colleagues in the office, the reporter who delivered the news reported to Hanihui without fear: "Editor-in-Chief, our newspaper sold nearly 70,000 copies in just one morning, and in some areas there was a shortage of copies.

Case!"

At this moment, almost all eyes were on Editor-in-Chief Hani. Some of their eyes were happy, some were puzzled, and some were worried.

As the chief writer of this issue of the newspaper, Editor-in-Chief Hani was also trembling with excitement. The sales volume of 70,000 newspapers meant that at least tens of thousands of celebrities with small assets would work for their newspaper. As long as these 10,000

If some people among many people can lean towards Chartism, then all Harney's hard work will be in vain.

Of course, this is just a bold estimate. The real target of "Northern Star" is the middle and lower class people of the working class. There are more of them than the elite class. It cannot be ruled out that several workers join forces to purchase a newspaper.

In any case, Editor-in-Chief Hani's "first shot" against the United Kingdom was in a very successful way. Next, he needs to thoroughly consolidate the existing results and make steady progress. If necessary, he can continue to instigate a petition movement to force the United Kingdom to accept them.

conditions of.

"How is the printing and scheduling situation? Can we continue to deliver in the future?" Hani asked about the follow-up delivery.

"No problem! I have made all the follow-up arrangements when I come back!" The reporter raised five fingers and said proudly: "Five printing presses are running at the same time. Even if the entire London area subscribes to our newspaper, it will be more than enough!"

Hani nodded with satisfaction and stood up.

Now that the first shot has been fired, there is absolutely no reason to retreat. For this reason, he needs to find some "allies".

…………………………………………

On the other hand, Jerome Bonaparte, who had sorted out all his cousin's belongings and paid the last month's rent, was quietly waiting for news from France.

The article on May 4th did not seem to stir up much ripples in the British public opinion circle. It was like a pebble submerged in water that only made a small splash and then disappeared without a trace.

This made Jérôme Bonaparte, who was confidently anticipating the tide of public opinion, start to doubt himself.

Is it because my writing style is not good? Or is my method wrong?

Seeing that British public opinion did not develop according to his expectations, Jérôme Bonaparte couldn't help but feel a little upset.

The defeat of British public opinion seemed certain.

If French public opinion is as lifeless as British public opinion, it is obvious that his plan will fail.

At that time, what method he should use to get his cousin to return to France became Jerome's number one problem.

"I'm going for a walk!" The impatient Jérôme Bonaparte decided to take Ham (a pet dog adopted by Louis Napoleon in Britain) for a walk.

"Your Highness, I will ask Fleury to go out with you!" Pesigny, who was worried about Jerome Bonaparte going out alone, suggested to Jerome Bonaparte.

"No! I'm just going out for a walk!" Jérôme Bonaparte decisively rejected Pesini's suggestion. He didn't want to lose his freedom in life before he became president.

"Your Highness, please be sure to bring this with you!" Pesini returned to the room and took out a fine-quality revolver and a cane, with a sword hidden inside the cane.

Jérôme Bonaparte took the cane and revolver handed over by Pesini and led Hamm along the Schafferitz Street until he arrived at St. Martin's Church.

At the junction of the slums and the wealthy areas, Jérôme Bonaparte found that there were significantly more police forces around than on Piccadil Street. Many vigilantes were holding canes and revolvers just like Jérôme Bonaparte.

Watching the distance warily.

Jérôme Bonaparte followed the vigilante's gaze and looked into the distance. There were many people in the cafe not far from St. Martin's Church. Some of them were brightly dressed, some were in rags, and they were all gathered together.

In front of the cafe.

Because Jerome's place was too far away from the cafe, he could only vaguely hear words such as "Napoleon" and "Equality".

This aroused Jerome's strong curiosity, and he decided to go and find out.
