Chapter 175: Francis. Bahrain
"This is vulcanized rubber? Have you solved the problem of temperature suitability of rubber? George IV pinched the vulcanized rubber in his hand and walked around the house excitedly.
"My friend, this is a big deal, I think, I think, vulcanized rubber can be used for a lot of things, especially for water pipes, I think all over Europe must use it, and this alone will make tens of thousands of pounds a year!"
"Not only that, Frederick, we can also use him to make all kinds of waterproof gloves, shoes.
I don't think Britain needs to have expensive leather shoes for every soldier, vulcanized rubber can be replaced, it has the waterproof ability that leather shoes don't have, and we can make this thing into such a large, closed cover. Ye Kai said as he compared it with his hand.
"Covers? What does a condom mean? What's the use of doing this? But you're right, we can use it to make shoes, and the purchase of the army alone is a lot of money! George IV glanced at Ye Kai suspiciously, and then became excited again.
"This sleeve, he used it to put on a man's thing!" Ye Kai gestured at Qiao Si's crotch, and then showed an expression that you understand.
In this era, condoms already existed, which were made of the film in the small intestine of sheep, but the materials were scarce, the price was not cheap, and there was not much guarantee of comfort and safety, which also led to the illegitimate children everywhere in this era.
It is said that in Paris and London, there are almost always several children standing behind every older prostitute.
"Putting it on this?" George looked at his crotch and gestured, and suddenly he understood.
"You're saying we can use this thing to make condoms? Ye, you are such a genius! How did you come up with these things? ”
"Think about it, my friend, you should know how much profit there is, every European prostitute, every time she receives a customer, she needs to spend once, even the high-end courtesans and noblewomen.
Moreover, this is not only a money-making invention, but also a noble invention, as soon as the product comes out, the courtesans of all Europe will be grateful to you! ”
"You're right! Leaf! Let's get started! I can't wait to see these products on the market now! ”
George IV, who has been considered a playboy and a waste second generation for many years, is still very excited that he may come up with a shocking invention, and he can't wait for the others, especially his father George III, to lose his big teeth!
"But I don't have the ability to commercialize this, and neither can you, Frederick, we need a few professionals who can mature the operation of vulcanized rubber!"
Ye Kaiyan reminded that he didn't even dare to apply for a vulcanized rubber patent now, because he dared to guarantee that he would apply for it in the morning, and those who were interested would know that by the time he got the vulcanized rubber products out, others would have already started selling them, and if they wanted to make money from this, obtaining a patent was only the first step.
"Don't worry! I'm the Crown Prince of Britain, the future King, and I'm ready, and we'll set off to meet a big man at once!" ”
。。。。
In the suburbs of London, Charles. James. At Fawkes' family castle, Ye Kai finally met the most famous British politician of the eighteenth century.
For the current Whigs, Charles. James. Fox was a great figure, and the Whigs even had a name called the Fox Party at this time, because many people in the Whigs considered themselves to be Fox's disciples.
This political figure who is on the same page as King George III is a very good friend of George III's son George IV, and it was Fawkes who wanted Fox to pass a resolution to finance the redemption of Carlton House for him.
Because Fox, as an aspiring political strongman, the playboy Qiao Si, who is unwilling to take care of things, is of course the best king in his mind.
As for King George III, who wants to meddle in everything, it must be a symbol of a tyrannical and stupid king.
"Rubber gloves, rubber shoes, rubber hoses, uh, and condoms, Lord Marquis, I would like to know what kind of family can raise a wise nobleman like you? Are you really just from an exiled Ceris royal family? ”
Falk smiled in surprise, and then he nodded at Ye Kai.
"It's a nice invention, but I'm a politician and I'm not good at business stuff, so I'd like to invite a professional business person to come and if you allow it, how about it?"
Ye Kai also nodded, "Of course you can!" ”
Francis. Bahrain, the son of a small Lutheran merchant from Bremen who ran a wool shop, and was the founder of the prestigious Bank of Bahrain.
But in the past few years, forty-six-year-old Francis. Bahrain suffered the biggest setback of his life, Britain's defeat in North America, which nearly destroyed the Bank of Bahrain, which he had founded.
It was not good that he married a wealthy and talented wife, the daughter of the former Archbishop of Canterbury.
With the help of his wife, Francis. Bahrain avoided outright bankruptcy, and it was this year that Bahrain's banks began to gradually recover.
"Oh! Your Royal Highness, Your Excellency the Marquis, Mr. Fox, please forgive me for my gaffes! Bahrain, who was not tall and had a cold beef complexion of German standards, exclaimed softly.
"It's an amazing invention, indeed, it can be made into a lot of things, gloves, shoes, plumbing, condoms, I think these are the products that make tens of thousands of pounds a year!"
"It's just tens of thousands!" Qiao Si muttered with some disappointment.
Francis. Bahrain smiled bitterly, people really can't be compared, this lord's annual Huaguang money can buy a Bahrain bank, and the profit of tens of thousands of pounds a year is still too low.
"But this is just the beginning, it will continue to increase as the product matures more and more, this is not an invention that can only make ten thousand pounds a year, but an invention that can build a rubber business empire that will stand tall!"
Although the heart is complaining, Francis. Bahrain explained respectfully.
George IV, who was originally a little disappointed, was interested again when he heard the words "a business empire that stood tall"!
What business is the best to do, of course, is the only monopoly business is the best to do, the so-called free monopoly, the freedom of monopoly, that is the eternal truth!
"Your Excellency, such a shocking invention is indeed exciting, but the asking price of two third-class warships is too staggering!
It's not about money, it's much easier if you just take the money and leave, I think Mr. Balin will be willing to pay you a lot of money for this patent, but the sail warship is different, this is the foundation of Great Britain! ”
Listened to Francis. Bahrain's analysis, Fox was also moved, but even for someone like him, two third-class warships would require a lot of energy to promote.
What's more, Ye Kai also needs the corresponding crew and naval soldiers, and even naval officers, teaching apprentices that he still understands this kind of thing when he starves his master to death.
"In that case!" Ye Kai stood up and sighed.
