"Baron Trudeun has done an excellent job." Joseph nodded and instructed Lavallette, "Then please accelerate the follow-up plan."
"Yes, Your Highness."
The Director of Security responded, then hesitated, "Your Highness, however, the Minette Ironworks and Gregoire Brothers Steel Company have some complaints about reducing sales to Northern Germany. I'm concerned they might not strictly comply."
According to the plan, France's ironworks need to cede part of the market to Prussia's "steel industry boom."
But these two companies have significant sales in the North German Countries, and the French Government cannot openly issue a ban. If they continue to sell secretly, there is nothing anyone can do.
Joseph sighed, "Tell them not to focus solely on low-end markets. Also, the Ministry of Finance will provide them with part of the subsidy funds."
