MTL - Restart Spain-Chapter 24 Daimler and Benz
Far away in Spain, Alfonso of the Royal Palace of Madrid was unaware of what was happening in the Royal Palace of Portugal.
Alfonso was pleasantly surprised by the three guests who came from afar.
"Mr. Benz, Mr. Daimler, welcome you to Spain, I welcome you on behalf of the people of the whole country."
Alfonso personally received two famous men of later generations, although they were not yet.
"I'm very grateful, Your Majesty. We are just ordinary people. It's our luck to get His Majesty's love."
Benz said that Carl Benz was a down-and-out entrepreneur during this period, so poor that he couldn't even repay a friend's loan.
"I invited the two to come to Spain, mainly because I hope they will help my country's mechanical and internal combustion engine business, and they are the most suitable candidates in my opinion."
Alfonso looked at Daimler and Benz, who created the future Mercedes-Benz car company.
"Your Majesty, in fact, I designed a four-way engine in 1872, and my friend Otto is studying it, and there has been obvious progress."
Daimler said that the engines of this period did not use gasoline or diesel, but gas.
"Actually, we found two fuels that can replace gas. I don't think the horsepower of the gas engine is enough, so we need two people to make a diesel engine and a gasoline engine for us."
Alfonso replied that if you want to create tanks, planes, and cannons, these two engines are essential conditions, and then he looked like the two and continued:
"So the goal of the first step is to hope that the two of you will create an engine fueled by gasoline and diesel, and the Spanish government will provide you with everything you need."
"Your Majesty!" Daimler and Benz bowed slightly.
"Your laboratory will be located near the state-owned manufacturing plant in Spain, where two Chinese military inventors, Maxim and Vielli, also invented and created. I think you can exchange and learn from each other."
Alfonso deliberately arranged their residences together, expecting them to bring inspiration to each other.
Vieri's chemistry may not have much in common, but Maxim is a mechanic, so the three of them should have a common language.
If more and more high-end talents come to Spain in the later period, Alfonso will even designate the suburbs of Madrid as a new area.
"Howard, please take the two gentlemen to the villa arranged for them, and then arrange for someone to pick up their families."
Alfonso instructed him to use the most convenient Howard. Alfonso hopes that these foreigners can regard Spain as their home.
"Your Majesty!" Howard lowered his head and turned to look at the two: "Please come with me."
The two bowed slightly and said goodbye to Alfonso, and followed Howard.
The cornerstone of modern warfare has been determined. After their research is completed, all kinds of high-end weapons that exist in Alfonso's mind can be built with common sense.
The arrival of the two came to an end, and his sister Isabel received a telegram from Portugal.
It was handed over to Isabel by the Portuguese ambassador in person.
"Dear Isabelle, King Alfonso XII of your country is now 18 years old, the age for marriage.
I have a daughter, Hepburn, who has been fascinated by His Majesty Alfonso XII of your country for a long time. As a mother, I can only do my best to help her. Please, Her Majesty the Queen, take care of your brother's marriage.
This is my daughter, please help me to make this happen. This is a request from a mother.
Isabella herself. "
This is a letter from Queen Maria Pia of Portugal to Alfonso XII's sister. The general meaning of the letter is as above. It can be regarded as a marriage proposal letter.
Behind the letter is a photo of Hepburn. In the photo, she has a beautiful face and a refined temperament.
"Wow!" Isabel looked at the angel-like person in the photo and immediately fell in love.
"This girl is really good-looking, and she's a Portuguese princess. Alfonso is a perfect match." Isabella said to herself.
The experience of bereavement seems to be still yesterday, and the painful experience has made her a little sensitive.
She didn't want to hastily help his younger siblings decide their life-long affairs. Compared with the identity of the female prince, Alfonso's sister made her more recognized.
"Arrange the carriage, I will go to the palace to meet His Majesty Alfonso." So Isabel ordered the carriage to go to the Royal Palace of Madrid.
The sound of the rumbling and rumbling carriage sounded. Isabel grabbed Hepburn's photo and was a little excited. For the first time, she felt the sense of responsibility of her eldest sister as a mother.
Alfonso, who had just dealt with Carl Benz's affairs, was exercising in the palace. This was the advice given to him by the palace doctor.
Since the last time Alfonso felt uncomfortable, the doctor did a general examination for Alfonso and was told not to be overly stressed and tired.
Alfonso exercised and relaxed at the Royal Palace of Madrid from time to time, and he did not want to receive a box lunch at the age of 28 like in history.
"Your Majesty, Princess Isabel is here, looking for you, Your Majesty." The guard came in and reported.
Before Alfonso could react, Isabelle arrived in a hurry.
"Alfonso, I'm here to see you."
Isabelle gasped a little, UU reading www. uukanshu.com looked anxious, but opened his mouth to visit.
"Come to see me? Sister, what's the matter with you?"
Alfonso looked at Isabel suspiciously, her sister who has always been calm is not such a rash person.
"Hahahaha, you saw it out, Alfonso, then I won't hide it from you. In fact, my sister is here for your marriage this time."
Isabel didn't hide it at all, and said directly to Alfonso, it seemed that she was really in a hurry.
"Marriage, sister, you know, I don't have this idea now." Alfonso's tone was a little helpless.
"Don't worry, this girl is the daughter of King Louis I of Portugal. She is very good-looking. I think she is a good match for you."
Isabelle said that she was really satisfied with this Hepburn, and then she handed over the photo,
"Look, this is what she looks like. She is a perfect match for her appearance and identity. I think you should grab it when you meet the right one."
After speaking, Isabelle stared at Alfonso.
But Alfonso, who took the photo, was instantly shocked, because the person in the photo was Audrey Hepburn, who was hailed as "the most elegant figure" by later generations.
"This person, is the princess of Portugal?"
Alfonso quickly asked, isn't Hepburn from the 20th century?
"Of course, it seems that you are also very satisfied. I will go to Portugal to help you implement this matter, so relax."
Isabel thought that Alfonso was shocked by Hepburn's beauty, and said to Alfonso with a smile.
"Then I'll ask my sister," Alfonso said he didn't want to explain.
The second traverser that Alfonso was worried about was really just his worry, and Hepburn was really just an accident...
