Lord of Industrialization

When the sun went down, it was time for dinner. Valchoire took four fully loaded tricycles back to the residence of the Fellows Association, and Frederick also returned to the castle for dinner.

At the dinner table, Frederick noticed that Maria looked at him from time to time, looking down at him and smiling evilly.

Frederick asked her strangely: What's wrong?

Maria just smiled hehehe and didn't answer.

Now they have their own work and study during the day, and only have time to spend time together at night.

After dinner, the two of them had just walked out of the restaurant when Frederick suddenly took action and picked Maria up in his arms.

Maria was so frightened that she screamed and said hurriedly: Put me down, someone is watching.

Frederick coughed twice, and the maids and guards in the corridor suppressed their laughter and turned to face the wall.

Maria was ashamed and angry, and raised her fist to hit Frederick.

Frederick didn't care, carried her into the recreation room, and closed the door with his feet.

This is where they usually rest and play. There is a table tennis table and a pool table. There are various chess pieces in the cupboard next to the chess table. There is a disassembled fourth-order Rubik's Cube on the coffee table in front of the sofa. The bookshelves are filled with novels, Leisure reading such as travel notes and poetry.

Frederick held Maria and sat on the sofa. Maria stretched out her hands to squeeze his cheeks hard, and her red lips puckered up enough to hang a keychain.

I don't know when it started, but the lips of the two young people began to connect, and their tongues kept moving.

Because of Maria's insistence, the two of them were just talking now, and they sat back down again after an unknown amount of time.

Maria moved Frederick to rest on her lap, pinched his nose and asked with a wicked smile: Hmph, hey, are you really going to sleep with Baron Ivan von Cattfield and Yvonne? Baron von Caterfeld, shall we sleep together?

Frederick asked helplessly: How do you know?

Maria now participates in the activities of the lady's intelligence circle from time to time. The information in this circle is transmitted quickly, sometimes accurate, sometimes extremely nonsense.

They mainly deliver news, and the accuracy of the news needs to be confirmed with family members.

Frederick's sexy news is often hotly searched in the circle. Most of it is nonsense, but it does not prevent everyone from using it as conversation material and Maria to make fun of the person involved.

The matter was quite big this time, and there were political factors involved, so many people asked Maria about it.

Maria pinched Frederick's nose again and asked, Answer quickly, is it true?

Frederick said depressedly: Those three guys have such big mouths.

I only told Fatih, Kosdorf and Little Louis this morning that I wanted both of them. I didn't expect it to spread so quickly.

He said thoughtfully: If they both wash their hands and wait for me on the same bed, I will not let down their efforts.

Maria punched Frederick on the stomach and said, Who cares how many times you sleep at a time? Now everyone wants to know who you support and why.

She had known since she was a child that Frederick would have lovers, and one of them, Susan, came to live with everyone a few years ago. The social atmosphere was such that she would not care about it unless there was an heir crisis.

Frederick raised his hand and gently stroked her black hair, and said seriously: I am willing to work with all friendly countries and nobles on the basis of 'mutual respect for power and territorial integrity, mutual non-aggression, non-interference in each other's internal affairs, equality and mutual benefit, exchange and do business under the principle of peaceful coexistence.

Now we seem to be strong, but our strength has been diluted by the newly annexed territory. We need to concentrate on rectifying internal affairs. In the past, many bandits in the Principality of Franconia and the Alliance of Legens still had to be cleaned up, and we did not have the energy to take care of external political affairs. ”

“I have an idea to establish an ‘Elbe River Convention Organization’ focusing on business on both sides of the Elbe River next year to strengthen business and construction cooperation in various places and work together to achieve common development and prosperity.”

Well... one more thing, the children of nobles who join this organization can come to the pre-examination education class of our Civil Service Technical College here. If they pass the civil service examination, they can serve here, or they can join the military. service.

That's all for now.

After listening to this, Maria asked: Are you trying to recruit their second son?

As the future First Lady of the Principality of Wesson, she had received some political education. Psyche taught soul magic from time to time and reminded her of it. At this time, she relied on her keen political sense to discover something different from the past.

Second sons and daughters in the nobility who did not have the right to inherit had always been a problem. These people had received an education for this era and were a talent pool. Frederick took up their mind.

In addition to attracting talents, this approach can also deepen the relationship between Frederick and other nobles, which may be useful in the future.

Frederick nodded, reached out and pinched Maria's nose, confirming her statement.

Maria thought about it and said, Everyone knows that our public employees and soldiers here are well-paid, and there are many people in the Principality of Mainz who have this idea.

Her intention was obvious, she wanted Frederick to open this policy to the nobles in her hometown.

Frederick thought for a while and said with a smile: Let the news out first and let them tell you, and then you tell me.

Maria leaned down and kissed him gently. This was to increase her voice in the circle. Some things were originally planned to be done and how they were done after she said it were two different things in the eyes of others.

How to resolve that matter? Maria pinched his nose again, Even if you sleep with them together, the territory inheritance matter must be concluded. Everyone is concerned about your decision.

Frederick said nonchalantly: Let them quickly find someone to marry, one will give birth to a boy, and the other will give birth to a girl. If the children get married again, their descendants will inherit that territory.

What he said was pure and muddy, and he mainly used the word procrastination to show his attitude of not interfering in other people's internal affairs.

Maria said with some worry: What you do is likely to stop those families who want to seek refuge with us.

People look for big-headed brothers to help settle things. Even if Frederick turned both of them into puffs and said which one helped her because it was moister, everyone would accept the rules of the game he set. In the future, if you ask for help, just play within the rules.

Now that he has made it clear that you can settle the matter on your own, without any help, who else will come to worship the mountaintop?

Frederick's lips curled up slightly and he whispered: For families that have a good relationship with us, weapons may grow on the trees in front of their homes.

Don't reveal this matter yet, it's not the time yet.

Maria covered her mouth and said with a bad smile: How bad you are!

After saying this, Maria pinched Frederick's face and asked, Are you going to let Valkyrie become your lover?

Frederick blinked and asked in confusion: Who told you?

Walqiulei just arrived yesterday and first asked Psyche for a recommendation.

As the plenipotentiary envoy of the Church of Nature and the key figure in opening the door to the northern market, Frederick naturally treated her with courtesy and only thought about making money, not people.

Maria poked his face and said, You went shopping with her today and bought her a lot of things.

Frederick remembered that he had bought four carts of things for Valkyrie today. Since he did not conceal his identity, he must have been seen by someone who wanted to do something bad and spread the word.

That's what you said. He smiled, I'm asking Walqiulei for help.

The Northern Dark Land is a huge market, but the unique climate and geographical conditions mean that the industrial products we can use here may not be suitable there, so targeted improvements are needed.

I approached Kosdorf, but this guy thought I was trying to sell, and he kept finding faults in an attempt to lower the price. According to his standards, the down jacket can be worn to the moon.

So I asked Hua Qiulei for help to see if those things are suitable for them. The samples will be considered as payment.

This matter is not a big deal. Frederick thought about it and said to Maria: There is something. When you went to see your godfather recently, you told him that I planned to build a railway directly to the Helvetic Federation. , making it more convenient for the mountain people who come to work here.”

Maria agreed, and now the Grand Duke of Mainz still works at the cathedral's construction site every day. Among other things, he is a competent supervisor who looks at the drawings to find construction quality problems and strictly enforces safe and civilized construction.

Frederick was still worried that he was tired, but as a result, he became more energetic as he worked. He even had the energy to find a lover in his thirties when he was over eighty years old. His family was speechless.

After the two of them finished talking about the business, they started discussing the clothes they would wear at the Golden Durian Award Ceremony the night after tomorrow.
