Lord of Industrialization

We have more prey than you!

Frederick did not expect that Sforza, the envoy from the Helvetia Federation, would jump out and step on him.

In the current situation, face is profit. If you don't slap him back, you will have a cowardly reputation.

If you ferment it for a while, your previous achievements will be questioned, and people will come up with all kinds of evidence that you are just trying to gain fame, and your reputation will plummet.

Frederick took a look at the Helvetic prey. The stacking technique was good. The pile was 1 meter higher than his own, but the base was smaller, so the visual difference was not as big as the height.

Moreover, they also hunted magical beasts, several adult rock bears, and tied with the hell wolves.

Therefore, the Archduke of Mainz and the Archduke Byrne remained silent and chose to believe in Frederick's wisdom.

Frederick visually measured the size of the two piles of prey, then shook his head and asked Sforza: Do you really think your prey is more than mine?

Sforza replied matter-of-factly: That's natural. My prey is so much higher than yours.

Arranging seats was originally an important activity today. There were many people watching the excitement, but I didn't expect to encounter such a big excitement.

Frederick made a look like he was sighing and asked him again: Are you really sure that your prey is more than mine?

That's natural. Sforza said with certainty. Of course, if you stand on it yourself and are a bit taller than my prey, I will definitely give in.

After saying that, he laughed to himself, as if he was very proud of himself.

Frederick said helplessly: If you were a student at Wesson, I would punish you by cleaning the toilets for a month.

Before Sforza could speak, he said to the Grand Duke of Mainz: Please also ask someone to measure the bottom circumference and height of these two piles of prey.

The Grand Duke of Mainz saw that he had a way to deal with it, and immediately arranged for someone to measure it.

Sforza's heart skipped a beat. He thought Frederick would ask people to weigh them, so he filled the stomachs of many prey with wet sand, not expecting to measure the volume.

He glanced at the two piles of prey. His pile was obviously much higher, and he felt a little more at ease.

The data of the two piles of prey were quickly measured. The bottom circumference of Frederick's pile was 15.7 meters and 2 meters high, and the bottom circumference of Sforza's pile was 12.6 meters and 3 meters high.

Frederick did not give Sforza a chance to speak. He stretched out his hand to gather the light elements and drew a circle and a cone in the air. At the same time, he said to him: Given the circumference of the circle, two piles of prey can be calculated. The bottom radii are 2.5 meters and 2 meters respectively.

So through the volume formula πrh of a cone, we can get that the volume of my prey is 13 cubic meters, and the volume of your prey is 12.6 cubic meters, which is obviously more than mine.

Sforza suddenly didn't know how to refute. His mathematics level was as miserable as that of many noble lords, and he didn't know what to say if he wanted to refute.

The Grand Duke of Mainz did not give him a chance to speak, and said with a smile: It seems that Wesson has more prey.

Then he said to Sforza: Oh, it's not surprising that you saw it wrong. Next time, just keep your eyes open and look more.

Come here, bring the gift.

The master made the final decision, and Sforza had nothing to say now.

Soon someone put a large iron cage covered with colorful cloth on the car and pushed it over. Frederick slowly backed away with a smile on his face.

The Archduke of Mainz went over to uncover the colorful cloth and said to Archduke Byrne: Old man, you are number one today, so this is for you.

The guests present immediately started talking with a buzz, this is a three-headed dog, this gift is indeed valuable.

Frederick noticed that all the people in the Principality of Mainz were suppressing laughter, while Archduke Byrne's face suddenly turned pale, so he quickened his pace of running away.

I accept your kindness. Archduke Byrne obviously knew his business and gave the Archduke of Mainz a hard look.

But this gift has to be accepted. Everyone is ready to become relatives. Rejecting the gift will affect the overall situation.

The Grand Duke of Mainz was a little uneasy at first, but after hearing that he accepted it, a heartfelt smile appeared on his face.

Unexpectedly, Archduke Byrne looked at Frederick who could not run far, and said as kindly as his grandfather: Frederick, come here quickly, you and Maria are engaged and I don't even have a gift to give you. It just so happens that Maria has a three-headed dog, so I’ll give you this one, and it happens to be a pair.”

Frederick twitched his face and meowed. These three-headed huskies were really so easy to raise. The Grand Duke of Mainz would not give them away.

The reason given by Archduke Byrne seems very reasonable and cannot be refuted.

Frederick turned his eyes and looked at Sforza.

Unexpectedly, after seeing his gaze, Sforza took the initiative to walk towards the three-headed husky and said: Oh, this is an incredible treasure...ah...oh...my foot is twisted, go back and put some medicine on it !”

It's just that his right foot was twisted just now, and it was his left foot that was lame when he ran.

Frederick looked around at the people around him. Baron Wesson looked envious, but after all, he was a relative of his own, so it was not easy to trick him.

At this moment, a high-ranking little transparent person appeared in Frederick's eyes.

The royal family naturally wanted to congratulate the Archduke of Mainz on his 80th birthday, so His Royal Highness Crown Prince Rudolf came on behalf of the royal family.

However, he has not yet come out of the shadow of half a year ago, and Frederick is here again, so he behaves very low-key.

An aunt-like smile appeared on Frederick's face. He went over to pull up Rudolf's sleeve and said: Hey, Rudolf, uncle, I haven't given you a gift for so long. Our family seems to be divided. ”

It's a good day. This monster seems to be quite valuable, so I'll give it to you as a gift. You have to accept it.

Many people at the scene wanted to laugh when they saw the young Frederick calling himself uncle in front of the adult Rudolf, but now was not the time to laugh, so they held it back.

There was no problem for Frederick to call himself that, because in the Treaty of Wesson, Frederick called King William his brother, so there was no problem for him to call himself uncle in front of the prince, and it seemed that the two families had put aside their old grudges.

Rudolf was glared at by Frederick, and then said subconsciously: Thank you, uncle, for the gift.

The two grand dukes present kept smiles on their faces, but sighed in their hearts. I don't know whether it is a blessing or a curse for such a person to inherit the throne.

At this time, the sky was getting dark, and the Grand Duke of Mainz waved his hand, and the banquet began!

Hunters and cooks from various families worked together to select the best prey to slaughter and roast, and then served it to the master, wife, young master and ladies.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, everyone presented gifts to the Grand Duke of Mainz.

The first person to give a gift was Rudolph. On behalf of the royal family, he gave a scepter with a diamond as big as a walnut, and he gave a purple cloak.

The Grand Duke of Mainz accepted the gift with a smile. He understood the political significance of the scepter and said a lot of words of loyalty to the royal family. The atmosphere was extremely harmonious for a while.

Next was Archduke Byrne. His gift was a sword used by a certain hero in his ancestors. Swords would not be given in normal friendly relations. This showed the world that the relationship between the two families had reached a new level.

Then came Frederick, who presented a gold box as big as a microwave but inlaid with gems, and said with a smile: The things in the box are more precious than the box.

Oh? The Grand Duke of Mainz put the heavy box in front of him and replied with a smile: If it's not precious, I'll beat you up.

It was obvious at first glance that this box was expensive, and everyone was full of curiosity and expectation to find out what was inside.

When the Grand Duke of Mainz opened the box, he was stunned for a moment, and his expression became more solemn than ever.

He asked a servant to bring him water, washed his hands and dried them before carefully taking out the gifts inside.

The people around him had already been full of expectations because of his performance. Unexpectedly, there was a large and thick book in the box. Many people thought that this was the legendary magic book?

The Grand Duke of Mainz opened the pages of the book very gently and began to read it carefully, leaving everyone in the audience stunned.

After a while, his old friend, Burning God of Magic Becher stood up and said: If you were so serious about learning magic before, you would be more or less a God of Magic now.

The Grand Duke of Mainz finally came to his senses, closed the page of the book, and said to his old friend with emotion: If you fall into the water with this book, I will save this book first.

Becher was used to joking with him, so he naturally didn't care. Instead, he walked over from his seat and said at the same time: Let me see what kind of book it is. If it's not a good book, I'll beat you up.

He walked behind the Grand Duke of Mainz, glanced at the cover of the book, patted his old friend on the shoulder, and sighed: Indeed, if you save me first, I won't agree.

The Grand Duke of Mainz gently touched the cover of the book, raised his head and said to Frederick: Thank you, this German Dictionary is the best gift I have ever received in my life.

Frederick smiled and said: This is only the first volume. It contains daily vocabulary, which is enough for ordinary people to use. There will be more vocabulary collections in the future, and it is estimated that there will be fifteen to twenty volumes.

The efficiency of the work of the Translation Court has been greatly improved under the leadership of Celsus. The identity and profound knowledge of the former director of the Royal Library of Constantbul allowed those scholars to reduce unnecessary wrangling.

So Frederick asked the Translation Court to first publish the first volume of commonly used words in daily life, and the more difficult professional words to be published slowly later.

Okay, okay! The Grand Duke of Mainz kept nodding, Don't be too hasty, take your time. When will this volume be available for sale?

This German Dictionary Volume 1 is about the size of A4 paper, with 1,500 pages, double-sided printing, anti-moth ink and parchment cover. Including the editor's cost, each copy sells for 3 florins.

Frederick mentioned the selling price, and then said: Now the printing factory has started printing and binding, and the first batch of 500 volumes will be sold next spring. The Translation Court plans to edit a concise version next, and the price will be lower.

The Grand Duke of Mainz nodded with satisfaction. Most people would not use such a book. Those who do use it are those who are not short of money. This price is fine.
