A successful trader - and a woman's profession
Lovely girls, market The 21st century favors you!
In 1724, the Royal Council of State of France composed a decree that established a ban on the appearance of ladies on the premises exchanges. What prompted the politicians of the time to take such harsh measures against women traffickers is hard to say.
