Chapter 294: , Decoration

Early the next morning, Robson, the manager of the Lufthansa Trading Company in Paris, just got on the chaise to the company when he heard a newsboy shout: "Come on, come on, come and see, the Moulin Rouge is renovated. Business will be closed for two weeks. There was an earthquake in Turkey and numerous casualties. The first ruling party received the messenger of Santo Domingo..."
Robson doesn’t care about the earthquake in Turkey. Maybe the earthquake in Turkey will kill a lot of Turks, Arabs, or other people, but it has nothing to do with Robson. He and Lufthansa Trading, the current tentacles can't reach that far, they and Turkey, a Finney business did not care about them!
As for Santo Domingo, it has something to do with him. The kind of coffee he likes to drink comes from Santo Domingo. However, the trading of coffee and cane sugar is basically controlled by French, Spanish, or British companies, and the Lufthansa Trading Company simply cannot get in, so this matter actually has little to do with him. However, since the first ruling was able to receive the messenger of Santo Domingo, it indicated that the two sides would not break for the time being, so it seemed that he could continue to drink his coffee. This is more or less a good thing.
But "Moulin Rouge" will be closed for two weeks, which really has something to do with him. He has already planned, a few days later, he will entertain a few business "friends" there, but now it seems that he has to make separate arrangements.
Thinking about this, Robson yelled: "Newsboy, newsboy, bring me a newspaper with news that the'Moulin Rouge' will be closed for renovation..."
The news that the "Moulin Rouge" will be closed for renovation for a week immediately attracted widespread attention. Many people are even worried. They are not worried about whether the "Moulin Rouge" will be like some unscrupulous clubs, under the guise of "closing business for renovation", and then rolling up the membership money, a guy ran to the New World. If something like this happened to the "Moulin Rouge", they would be really happy because they are all people who do the same business as the "Moulin Rouge". However, they know very well how much money the "Moulin Rouge" makes, it will do that stupid thing if it is stupid.
What they worry about is what the "Moulin Rouge" will look like, and whether they will follow after the decoration. "Moulin Rouge" is now the whole of Paris. No, it is the fashion pioneer of the whole France and even the whole Europa. Although the Austrian royal family, the British royal family, and the Russian royal family sneered at the "Moulin Rouge" style on the surface, describing it as "vanity and depravity and depravity," it is said that whenever something new appears in the "Moulin Rouge" Style clothes, after a week, you will be able to see similar styles in Austrian and British courts, and three weeks later, you will be able to find exactly the same authentic ones in the Turkish sultan’s palace. After five to six weeks, You can also see almost the same costumes in Petersburg.
In addition to clothing, the architectural decoration style of the "Moulin Rouge" is also the object of imitation throughout Europe. Although the upper class in Europe mentions the decoration of the "Moulin Rouge", it is still a "vanity and degeneration", but if you pay attention Take a look at their newly built buildings and their new decorations to the old palaces, and you will find that the smell of the "Moulin Rouge" should not be too strong.
It's just that the "Moulin Rouge" is too expensive, not rich people, or even real rich people, and it is very difficult to enter the "Moulin Rouge", which gives people who do similar businesses a way to survive. The "Moulin Rouge" is naturally the target of imitation by those who do similar transactions. Although no matter how they imitate, they can't shake the Moulin Rouge, but if they can imitate it a little bit, they can at least suppress other competitors.
"The renovation of the'Moulin Rouge' I don't know how much it will cost. I originally made a little money, but originally wanted to... Now I am afraid that it may not be enough to throw it all in! A dog-day'Moulin Rouge', Just make good money for you. What tricks are you playing? Isn’t this a cheating!
Caderousse, who was also seeking development in the Montmartre Heights, read the news in the newspaper and immediately He threw the newspaper under his feet viciously and cursed.
Under his name, there is also a nightclub called Royal Gems. Of course, the popularity of the business cannot be compared with the "Moulin Rouge", but the monthly income is also good. In addition to paying for daily operating expenses, there is also the cost of balancing the characters in black and white. A lot of money. Caderousse calculated that by this fall, he would be able to buy a small manor in his Italian hometown, and then slam a 13 in front of his acquaintances. However, it now seems that this good wish can only be postponed a little further.
Like Caderousse, the owners of other nightclubs are also watching the actions of the "Moulin Rouge" nervously, relying on various relationships to find out what the "Moulin Rouge" is doing, and think of ways to quickly pool their funds. In order to quickly keep up with the "Moulin Rouge" rhythm.
"We are a group of hapless people who have encountered tigers in the forest. The'Moulin Rouge' is the terrible big tiger. Every time, as long as the big tiger moves, we have to fly up and run. Will die. Our way of survival is to run faster than others. Therefore, opening a nightclub on the Montmartre hill is very profitable, but it is also very hard. Are you going to sleep? With one eye, staring at the'Moulin Rouge', this is how I survived for so many years." It is said that when a guy who also runs a nightclub handed over his own business to his son, he said to him This is the case.
However, before the "Moulin Rouge" reopens, it is not easy to find out how the "Moulin Rouge" is going to be decorated. This is not because there is no news, but because there are too many news.
In fact, before every move of the "Moulin Rouge", all kinds of news are flying in the sky. Some news is naturally unreliable at first glance, but some news really sounds decent. However, if anyone really ran away according to this news, it was often discovered after the rush that they weren't on the same track with the "Moulin Rouge".
But it doesn't work if you don't care about the news at all, because some of the news in there is really true. Prepare in advance, at least, when you start, you can run faster.
This time, rumors or predictions about the decoration of the "Moulin Rouge" are also flying in the sky. Some people say that the "Moulin Rouge" has covered the entire performance hall with gold foil. Some people say that the "Moulin Rouge" has improved the lamps and lanterns. Every lamp is equipped with a crystal lampshade. Some people say that the "Moulin Rouge" has built a room with mirrors from the ceiling to the four walls to the floor. Others say...
This time, almost no one rushed away, but everyone was also busy contacting manufacturers of gold leaf, crystal products, and mirrors. As a result, the prices of these products have risen to a certain extent in the futures market.
Some people even tried to get into the "Moulin Rouge" that was being renovated. Of course, they failed shamefully. After all, the "Moulin Rouge" was not just an ordinary gold-selling cave, but also a secret stronghold of the "Ministry of Truth". . If this kind of place is casually mixed in to inquire into secrets, then the "Ministry of Truth" will really be laughed at by the "Ministry of Public Security".
But there is one thing that cannot be kept secret at all, that is, people noticed that a thick cable was drawn into the "Moulin Rouge." Therefore, the decoration of the "Moulin Rouge" must be closely related to electricity.
So new legends have appeared again. Some people say that the "Moulin Rouge" will build a large fountain, others say that the "Moulin Rouge" will prepare a huge electric stage that can be lifted and rotated, and others say that the "Moulin Rouge" There will be electric robotic dancers, and some people say...
Although most of these legends should be unreliable, there is absolutely no doubt that the installation and modification of the "Moulin Rouge" must be closely related to electricity.
Some people also noticed that the "Elysium Palace" has also begun to be closed for decoration, and a very thick cable has also been pulled in. However, to know the intelligence of the "Elysium Palace", I am afraid it is more difficult to obtain the intelligence of the "Moulin Rouge".
Just in everyone’s guess, time gradually passed. The tall cloth curtains surrounding the "Moulin Rouge" were removed, and the newly decorated "Moulin Rouge" finally reappeared in front of everyone.
"It doesn't seem to have changed much?" Many people asked suspiciously.
Indeed ~EbookFREE.me~The appearance of the Moulin Rouge has not changed much. The most conspicuous thing is still the huge red windmill, but the edge of the red windmill is decorated with some glass decorations. These decorations The product reflects a reddish light in the evening sunlight.
In the small square in front of the "Moulin Rouge", there is really as much fountain as the legend. In the middle of the fountain is a marble sculpture of a tryst between the prince Paris of Troy and the queen of Sparta, Helen, surrounded by a small fountain.
Except that the water sprayed from the small fountain did not spread out, but sprayed into a small bubble. There seems to be nothing special about this fountain.
In addition, on the ground near the main building of the "Moulin Rouge" and the red windmill, there is a stone-like thing, but they are facing the direction of the "Moulin Rouge" and the red windmill. A piece of thick transparent glass, when you look carefully inside, you can find something like a glass bottle inside. Then people discovered that the outer shell of these stones is actually iron, just painted with a color similar to the stone. And there are many holes in these "stones", and I don't know what they are doing.
But at this time, there is no need to rush to inquire, because the "Moulin Rouge" will reopen in an hour.
