Chapter 141 Promise (please subscribe!!!)
  Cannes is very quiet at night, and you can still hear the sound of waves and beaches in the bay while lying in bed.

Shi Jintang was lying on the large, fluffy bed, holding a cigarette in one hand and gently rubbing Alice's smooth and tender back with the other.

Alice was completely lazy at the moment, with her fluffy red hair and small head lying on Shi Jintang's chest.

"Henry, I want a child."

Alice Underwood felt a little uneasy when she said this. She was afraid that she would be rejected by the man who controls her own destiny.

If she was rejected, she probably wouldn't have the courage to ask this question again.

Shi Jintang put out the cigarette in his hand and exhaled all the smoke in his mouth.

He stretched out his hand to hold up the little-faced beauty in front of him, "Yes, my beauty!"

When Alice heard this answer, tears of excitement welled up in her blue eyes.

"Thank you, Henry!"

After saying that, she bravely offered her fragrant lips. Naturally, Shi Jintang would not refuse the delicious food delivered to her door.

The two fell onto the soft bed again.

……

The next day, when the accompanying people went out to have breakfast, Shi Ming noticed that the two female doctors had dark circles under their eyes, but he said nothing.

Mr. Shi made a lot of noise last night, and not many people in the whole villa could sleep well.

On the other hand, Lawen Schneider and Robin Trudeau were in good spirits. They seemed to be fine and greeted everyone as usual.

There was nothing unusual about Lucas, his smile was bright and warm.

Let the two female doctors who were traveling with him pay more attention to him than others.

It was almost ten o'clock before Shi Jintang and Alice got up and walked out of the room slowly.

The two casually ate some bacon rolls, and then Shi Jintang began to ask about Prince Leopold next door.

"Prince Leopold rarely goes out. He spends most of his time at home sunbathing."

Alice replied softly that she came here early, so she followed Shi Jintang's instructions to closely monitor the movements next door.

Prince Leopold was diagnosed with the "royal disease" (hemophilia) as soon as he was born, so he was closely cared for throughout his childhood.

But there are exceptions. Queen Victoria's lover John Brown and his brother often bullied the poor prince.

But there was nothing he could do because the queen did not believe in her son.

Queen Victoria had a bad childhood, so her control of her children reached a perverted level.

She did not allow her youngest son and daughter to leave her sight.

Prince Leopold resisted bravely and finally broke away from his mother's control, went to university abroad, and finally obtained a degree.

The prince was very accomplished in literature, art and chess. He sponsored the London Chess Championship last year (1883).

According to normal history, the prince would die of hemophilia at the end of March.

It was still early March, and Shi Jintang was thinking about how to get close to the other party so that the other party would not doubt him.

At this time, Shi Ming suddenly came in from outside, "Mr. Shi, there is someone coming to visit outside.

The other party asked if Ms. Underwood, the general manager of Chanel clothing, lived here? "

"Chanel clothing" is the name Shi Jintang got for the clothing produced by the Lyon clothing factory.

This garment factory has earned nearly one million francs in profit over the past two years.

Because of the popularity of jackets, zippers have also become popular.

Therefore, "Chanel Clothing" became a brand. Through the creativity provided by Shi Jintang, Alice took the lead in launching a series of women's underwear, focusing on high-end luxury people.

"Chanel" underwear has become a hot topic among French ladies. Because of the unremitting efforts of French ladies to recommend and promote it, the brand influence of Chanel clothing is also growing.

Alice took advantage of the situation and established a branch factory in the UK to promote short men's and women's suits, jackets and women's underwear.

Slowly, information about Alice slowly spread, and people began to become familiar with this low-key rich woman.

…    Two of the three factories established in France have achieved substantial profits, with only the electric iron and the Institute of Physics making limited profits.

The main reason is that electricity was not widely available at this time.

In addition, the "Henry Brothers Transportation Machinery Factory" in Stuttgart, Germany, has now achieved an annual production capacity of 5 new bicycles.

The production line assembly method advocated by Shi Jintang has greatly improved the production efficiency of bicycles.

The Muller brothers also proposed setting up new factories in the UK and France to continue to expand production capacity.

Shi Jintang naturally agrees with this. As for the Benz Gasoline Internal Combustion Engine Research Institute, it made a breakthrough last year.

The new internal combustion engine is being installed and tested, and the new engine is much more powerful than it was in the original time and space.

The Muller brothers and Benz had already tried to build the first motorcycle, and Benz had not forgotten to put his new internal combustion engine into four-wheeled transportation that he dreamed of day and night.

Rudolf Diesel learned a lot of new knowledge in the institute, but he had not yet come up with the idea of ​​​​making a new internal combustion engine.

Shi Jintang does not have too many restrictions on these technical experts. It is very supportive of their scientific research needs and has never blocked them in terms of funding.

They naturally like bosses like Shi Jintang, and their spirit of inquiry is even stronger.

Shi Jintang planned to go to Stuttgart after finishing his work in the UK, meet with them, and help solve some practical problems.

As for Heinrich Rudolf Hertz's electromagnetic wave research, it is still in the critical stage and there are no results yet.

……

"Did the other party say who he was?"

Alice put down the bread in her hand and asked softly.

"They should be the servants of the prince's family next door. I think they are dressed like servants."

Shi Jintang nodded, "Go and reply to them. Ms. Alice is the general manager of Chanel Clothing."

Shi Ming nodded and left. Not long after, he brought an invitation.

The invitation was very elegant and luxurious, and the text on it was actually gilded. Shi Jintang opened it, looked at it, and handed it to Alice.

The content was to invite Alice to their villa for afternoon tea in the afternoon, and it was signed as the wife of Prince Leopold.

"This saves trouble."

After saying that, Shi Jintang looked at Alice again and found that the woman was staring at him.

"what happened?"

"I'm thinking about how to introduce my relationship with you."

Shi Jintang burst into laughter, "Is it difficult to introduce our relationship?"

Alice nodded, then shook her head, "Well, you are my savior, but it pains me to think that I can't always be by your side.

You let me have many things that I could not imagine before, and my greed makes me want to have more.

Sorry, it's my fault. "

After saying that, Alice stood up and walked into the room.

Shi Jintang sighed and continued with his unfinished breakfast.

At noon, Alice packed up, appeared in front of Shi Jintang, took his arm affectionately and walked to the next door.

On the way, Shi Jintang pretended not to care and asked, "Are you still sad?"

"Don't be sad anymore. When I have our child, I should learn to be content."

After listening to the woman's words, Shi Jintang smiled and touched her cheek.

"Wait a little longer and I'll give you an explanation."
