Chapter 626: Trade Dispute

Wisgen Street in Munich was already crowded with four to five hundred people, mostly workshop owners, craftsmen, and workers from Munich, as well as a few shop owners.

They were holding wooden signs that read "Kick out French goods" and "Raise tariffs," along with a straw man labeled "Kayetan Dietrich."

Dietrich was the diplomat who represented Bavaria in signing the Rhine-Saone Treaty.

Bertrand and his sons joined the crowd, chanting slogans of protest against French goods together with those around them.

Soon, the sound of a horn erupted from the front of the procession. Gabriel, a senior director of the Munich Chamber of Commerce, stood atop a carriage, waving his hands and shouting, "Follow me to that damn department store!"

He had come as an individual, but such a large-scale protest could not have been organized without the participation of the Munich Chamber of Commerce.
