Faced with Jerome Bonaparte's sudden inquiry, Bemini felt at a loss and instinctively glanced at Achille Fuld.
"Mr. Bemini, you're one of France's finest bankers!
Do you really need to consult others on such a simple question?" Jerome Bonaparte's stern reprimand reached Bemini's ears, prompting Bemini to quickly avert his gaze from Achille Fuld.
Unable to seek Achille Fuld's assistance, Bemini was forced to muster the courage to answer Jerome Bonaparte's questions.
"Your Majesty, please allow me to ask Chief Steward Bashirio a few questions!" Bemini respectfully said to Jerome Bonaparte.
"Go ahead!" Jerome Bonaparte nodded in response.
Subsequently, Bemini asked Bashirio in detail about the Northern Industrial Group, including the group's subsidiaries, its cooperating enterprises, and its annual profits.
Even though Bashirio had left the Northern Industrial Group for some time, he still tried his best to resolve Bemini's doubts.
