Chapter 75 The Bavarian Son-in-Law
When the Earl and the Duchess returned to Senhofen Castle for about half an hour as scheduled, Max, who lived up to the name of a madman, ran away in the Smart that had just learned, before leaving, and said, "Don't wait for me!"
It seems that it is not enough not to give the prototype car to the Duke's house. It has been stolen. You can't go to the king to sue your father-in-law, right?
Princess Ludovika also thought that Tangning was going to give Shamatt, but now it was their turn to return the gift. His Royal Highness took out a diamond-inlaid platinum bag watch, which was produced by Patek Philippe. Due to the manufacturing process, the clocks of this era were relatively large in size, and all watches were bag watches in their pockets, also known as pocket watches.
Downing's current bag watch is an unknown brand bought in India. He was too lazy to change it after he had money. He has been carrying it for almost five years. He is really a nostalgic person. Downing knew that Queen Victoria and Prince Albert seemed to have a Patek Philippe, and he bought it at the World Industrial Expo. Now he can show off himself. It is not only a good watch, but also a bag watch that represents love, commitment and honor, and three representatives.
The little duke, who looks innocent and cute, but has good observation skills, has long discovered that Tangning has an inconspicuous broken watch. Madman Max does not hold any position except for receiving the duke's pension. He knows that he travels around the country all day long. The duke's family is really poor and rich, and he spends a lot of money on the dowry of Princess Helen, who has become the queen of Austria. Now there are not many treasures to show off, so he has this Patek Philippe.
The matter of earning shares of the phonograph company given to my mother-in-law's house is now very tangled, because the physical object used to explain what the phonograph is was placed on the car and Max drove away before he could take it down.
Princess Ludovika invited him to stay in Senhofen Castle. Look, your parents are no longer there, Senhofen will be your home in the future.
What a heartwarming mother-in-law, Tangning's first home was with the Faradays and his wife. Now he has a home in Munich. He decided to live in Senhofen for a while. Anyway, he also has a car family. It is very convenient to go to the University of Munich for academic exchanges, Li Bixi's house to discuss water training without soil, or to the car factory.
The Germans estimated that their preference for cars was more than their love for music. In this case, Tangning, in a good mood, decided to give 5% of the car factory shares to Xixi as a betrothal gift. This betrothal gift looked nothing great at first, and when the world was running cars all over the world, they should know how heavy this gift was.
Moreover, Tangning decided to name the car factory Steinbel Automobile Factory, which not only represents the geographical location of the factory, but also commemorates the Steinbel Lake where he and his wife kissed each other.
After obtaining the consent of his fiancée, Tangning wanted to launch the news of his engagement with Smart. The Telegraph only titled "The Earl of Cambridge and Elizabeth, the Duke of Bavaria, entered into marriage contract". The most eye-catching one is the big photo. The white elf Smart stood Elizabeth, Xiao Note: The Earl's Little Gift.
The article has a brief introduction to Smart, keywords: hydrogen fuel cell powered, dust-free exhaust gas and noise-free, 10 horsepower, a maximum speed of 40 kilometers per hour, and a range of 600 kilometers. It is produced by the factory by the Lake Steinberg, and the price is to be determined. The car manufacturer is sorting out the production line and is expected to be launched in Munich in two months.
Duke Elizabeth became a car model for Smart, the beautiful and noble princess, a good thing that a certain third generation wanted to marry a princess was blinded, and she was such a young and beautiful fiancée. The bride and the new car became the big news in the European gossip and technology circles at the same time.
This is not only gossip and technology, but also political news. Such a shocking means of transportation was born in Bavaria. How glorious its king is, it has the power to compete with the British Empire.
The beauty plan worked! Messimilan II was as happy as if he had removed Dong Zhuo, so he ran to Fengxian Windsor, who moved to Senhofen, to inspect the Smart factory. Alas, the big boss is here, and Fengxian can only nod.
The strength of the Kingdom of Bavaria in the German Confederacy is ranked behind the Austrian Empire and the Kingdom of Prussia. Austria is the only "imperial" in the Confederacy, and its area is larger than that of Prussia and Bavaria. Needless to say, the Kingdom of Prussia has heavy industry support led by the Krupp family. To be honest, its industrial strength is far above the Kingdom of Bavaria. Bavaria attaches importance to science and technology, but it is not as strong as Prussia in heavy industry. The emergence of Smart symbolically reversed this situation. Bavaria has the world's first land transportation tool to kill a carriage, which is too important for a state with land rights.
There is no doubt that the king wanted to drive the Shamatt himself to see if it was magical like a legend. The German nation's love for cars is... Anyway, the king also learned from his father-in-law and snatched away a prototype car regardless of his shame. Where can I reason?
After several days of test drive and showing off in front of the ministers, the king sought the ministers' opinions: "I want to give our Bavarian son-in-law a nobleman. What do you think?"
The Prime Minister said: "This is what we should do, and we cannot lose the majesty of Bavaria, we must make someone more advanced than the earl."
The king wanted to give Duke a duke so that Downing deserved their Bavarian duchess, but the biggest title of "Bavaria" has been used, how about it?
The Prime Minister suggested: "It is not necessary to be granted a duke at once. It is not a military achievement. I am afraid that the subjects will have some opinions. It is better to be more casual than... Marquis of Munich? It is also majestic."
As soon as the Prime Minister and Tang Ning communicated with him, a powerful marquis was born. From now on, Tang Ning's full name will be Tang Ning Feng Windsor, haha, it is indeed awesome.
Tangning joined Bavarian nationality and became a great nobleman. A three-native slave with the nationality of the Three Kingdoms was born, which was the most suitable for Fengxian.
The fact that Downing took root in Munich is of great significance. Many big-mouthed celebrities predicted that Bavaria would become the leader of the German Confederacy. However, Downing himself knew that as long as Bavaria was a royal society, he would not make the Bavarian kingdom too powerful. Automobile factories could not be established only in Munich. In the future, there will be automobile factories no less than Munich in the UK and Switzerland. At most, they will be designed in Munich and produced in various factories.
Feng Windsor's reputation is getting stronger and stronger, and one person becomes more and more lost - Eugenie. It was better to marry into the Windsor family at the beginning to be the most important thing to regret the marriage of the French Emperor. Alas! Who would have thought that the dignified French Emperor would be so trashed by a big capitalist? Even the severely regulated public opinion has a very slight remark to their Emperor. Eugenie, who is politically sensitive, even felt that the couple had the most serious crisis. Hugo was not a vegetarian, so he would not be sure that he would propose that.
Is it too much? As for her plan to crack the secrets of wireless telegraphs, it is even more unfavorable. Even the people from the British Telegraph Company cannot handle it. Faraday, the first in contemporary electromagnetics, can do it. How can France, a country with a relatively small margin of strength, not a little worse than the United Kingdom? Diodes and transistors are mysterious things that start electronics. Even electronics have not been discovered. If you want to understand its principles, you may have to knock off a few teeth from the engineers of the entire era.
The French queen publicly announced that she must talk to the Marquis and actually left her child to go to Munich. The Marquis was shocked by her firm attitude. Should she continue to "escape from the city"? Is this too embarrassing? Others are afraid of their wife, but they are afraid of their ex-girlfriends, alas!
