Life of Being a Crown Prince in France

In France, just entered Versailles, with the identity of the Crown Prince. The only problem was that the reigning king was Louis XVI, and in two years, he'd be "snapped"... Since I couldn't rely on dear old dad and the ministers, I had to take matters into my own hands to reform France! First, make a bit of easy money to solve the financial crisis that had plagued the nation for hundreds of years. Then give a harsh lesson to those nobles harboring treacherous intentions and plotting to seize power. Next, confiscate the Church's abundant lands, acquired without lifting a finger. Industry, technology, agriculture, commerce—I will all advance side by side, I, the greatest Crown Prince in France! That year, when the little British struggled with the allied forces at his borders, I simply took over his little island. That year, my sword pointed at all of Europe, the magnificent feat Napoleon didn't accomplish, I will achieve!!!

Chapter 155: Two Prince Trading Companies

```

"Hmm, grilled lamb chops, beet truffle thick soup, roasted bread."

Alexei casually ordered a few dishes from the waiter beside him, then turned to Joseph and said, "I'm quite curious, what do you mean by 'business unrelated to politics'?"

"Bring me a cup of black tea, no milk, spices, or sugar."

Having dismissed the waiter, Joseph smiled and said, "For instance, engaging in some business. If you had your own trade in Paris, then the Empress would not recall you back to Russia for fear of your conduct—oh, please excuse my choice of words."

Business? Alexei blinked, sensing some logic in the proposal. No one would associate a busy merchant with a position in the line of succession to Saint Petersburg. It was indeed a good way to stay away from politics and to some extent shed the image of a wastrel.

In fact, that was exactly what Alexei's descendants did. To stay away from politics, they started doing business and eventually established Russia's largest sugar company.
