Chapter 242: Chapter 199: The Development of Industry and Finance_2

Elonc Mirabeau, as a capitalist, naturally had frequent dealings with banks, and knew this man was Necker's steward, whose death was likely linked to the Marquis of Ludo.

Mirabeau heaved a sigh and thought wistfully, "This steward is truly a loyal servant who values deep relationships..."

Before long, the carriage stopped outside the University of Paris.

Mirabeau and his servants and guards alighted, to be greeted by a large group of the school's senior officials, who bowed and greeted him attentively.

Now a Minister of Industry, he was a senior official who could speak before the King; naturally, the school authorities did not dare to neglect him.

Like stars circling the moon, the group escorted Mirabeau to the main building engraved with the word "Sorbonne," where colourful ribbons were everywhere, bands played in unison, and the wooden sign at the entrance bore gold-embossed letters — The French Standards Committee Measurement Standards Release Conference.
