industrial lord

Chapter 267
Manuel's private money was soon dug out, and Frederick asked Tony to restore the garden, gave the grandmother some Wessen specialties as gifts, and then left with Dragases.

They returned to the palace and came to the drawing room, where there were only the two of them, and a clerk who recorded the conversation.

Dragases personally poured Frederick a glass of wine for him, and asked with a smirk, "Did you have a good time during this time?"

His Majesty the Emperor had heard about Frederick in Wien, so he thought the same was true for him here.

Unexpectedly, Frederick shook his head after taking a sip of wine: "During the time you left, I didn't go out at all, and I didn't receive guests."

Dragases sat down on the sofa and said, "Don't be so careful, I still can't trust you."

"Who knows." Frederick smiled. "Being the emperor is not a matter of one person. Maybe one day when I am sleeping, a group of people suddenly ask me to wear an extra purple robe for fear that I will catch a cold, and put me in another purple robe." Capture the palace and press it on the throne, and then I will be the emperor."

Dragases could only smile wryly after hearing this. It is not impossible for this kind of thing to happen, and political investment will never be short of people.

"You still have a long way to go." Frederick said after drinking some more wine, "You haven't shown your strength, and you can't make people believe that you are a good emperor, and I am already famous. It's normal to choose me."

"Yes." Dragases nodded, "Actually, I was ready to be taken over by you from the very beginning."

Frederick rolled his eyes at him after hearing this, and the clerk also recorded it.

"I want to introduce some factories." Dragases said to Frederick seriously, "I plan to learn from Wessen State to carry out reforms, but I can't do without money. Only by building factories can I make money."

Frederick nodded and said: "That's a good thing. You can ask someone to talk to Ogilvy, and the Ministry of Industry can take the lead. I also plan to build an industrial park in the Galata district. It happens to be together at that time, so that the construction company will not run away. Come and run."

"Do you want a steam tractor? I can sell it to you at a lower price."

Dragases had seen the efficiency of the steam tractor, so he wanted it, and he also wanted other steam engines.

Frederick agreed without saying a word, and now Wessen State is planning to carry out an industrial upgrade in the third five-year plan, replacing the small-horsepower steam engine with a light and efficient gas explosion engine. Those second-hand goods are just sold to Dragases.

With the slow pace of this world, the two sides have to talk about it, and then choose a site and build a factory here. A few years have passed, and the time is just right.

At this time, the fangs of the Friedrich capitalist bared: "Managing a factory is not easy. You also know that there have been many accidents in the factory in Wessen these years, so I suggest you send some trustworthy people to the factory before the factory is built. Come and study with us."

"It takes time to cultivate the factory director, finance, and material management in the office, to the technicians and skilled workers next to the machine."

"You can recruit some second sons and daughters who have no inheritance rights from your family to study with me, starting from technical schools. I charge tuition fees according to local standards, and the wages for internship work are just a little less. When the factory is built As soon as they come back, they can go into normal production immediately.”

Dragases was fooled by him, especially the selection of second sons and daughters who had no inheritance rights.

If these people were not pulled into marriage, they would usually get a manor and marry other similar people casually for the rest of their lives, with pitifully little income.

If they are allowed to manage the factory, have a decent income, and have a decent status as the emperor's subordinates, they will become a support for the emperor.

After talking about this matter, the next thing made Dragaces a little shy: "There is one thing, I will marry the queen at the end of the year."

"Oh?!" Frederick laughed, "Congratulations, which family is it from?"

Dragases blushed and replied, "It's a girl from an ancient family in the city of Acropolis in the west."

Frederick nodded. The one in Athens, although nominally the territory of the Eastern Pulan Empire, is not very obedient. If the emperor marries the family there, the relationship between the two parties can be strengthened.

He had guessed that Dragaces was going to get married a long time ago, so the gift was already prepared, and he immediately asked someone to go back to get it.

Frederick handed a booklet to Dragases, and said with a smirk, "Your most important task now is actually to hurry up and give birth to an heir with the queen. This can help you."

After taking the brochure, Dragases asked curiously: "What is this?"

Frederick said "hey" twice, and said: "This is the secret art brought back by Madam Sophie of the Kush Kingdom when she sent a fleet to Peach Blossom Stone two years ago. The author is from a manor called 'Baihuazhuang' Master, nicknamed 'Pig Emperor', has made countless powerful female warriors surrender over there, I have translated it for you."

Dragases turned a few pages, with a smile that all men could understand, and immediately put the booklet in his arms.

"So that's how it is." He smiled and said to Frederick, "It turns out that you are so good in Wayne because you learned this."

Frederick smiled and said nothing.

At the beginning, I wanted Psyche to translate this cheat book, but in the end, she thought that she had unreasonable thoughts about her, and beat herself like a pig's head.

"Okay." Frederick stood up, "You are busy now, and I should leave too."

Dragase was taken aback, and hurriedly said: "Not staying for a few more days? I haven't had time to hold a special banquet for you yet."

Frederick shook his head and said: "No need, Constantbul has returned to the embrace of the emperor, my reputation is big enough now, and the reputation of Wessen State has also begun to resound, the task is completed, and it is time to leave .”

"In a country, the most famous person is not the emperor, but a powder keg that can explode at any time."

Back then, Dragases promised to use the restoration funds collected by the Royal Library as a reward. Now he is too busy to take it out, so Frederick has to run away immediately, so as not to find that the gold and silver are gone. Very embarrassing.

Frederick left the next day, wearing ordinary clothes, carrying ordinary weapons and luggage, a circle of gold coins and some small gems sewn in the belt of his underwear, without a ring, and left the residence after saying goodbye to Dawn. Jumped on a sea ship bound for the Kingdom of Kush.

It's just that he was unlucky, the boat encountered a storm halfway, was blown off course, and was blown by the wind to Wanjing City of the Ghazi Empire, hundreds of kilometers away from the Kush Kingdom.

Frederick thought to himself that he was originally out to travel, so he could go wherever he went, so he disembarked here.
