The moonlight outside the castle shone through the wide glass-mosaic window, and shone like a soft curtain on Eugène, who was lying on the bed, and he turned over with great difficulty, and found that he could not sleep peacefully, remembering what Garion had said to him during the day, and his heart could not be at peace for a long time. He turned his head to look out the window at the bright moonlight, the originally gloomy sky was illuminated by the moonlight, and he couldn't help but crawl out of the bed and light the candlestick next to the pillow.

The firelight shone on the gray hair, reflecting it into a glittering gold.

Now Eugène's mind is full of what Gallian called the "Krupp cannon", and Napoleon's bronze cannon is like a toy in the hands of a child in front of this weapon, which is simply a joke. The enemy could have cleared the position completely out of range of French artillery fire.

"How did he know Krupp's secret?"

With uneasy curiosity, Eugène could not wait for the moment when the morning sun rose tomorrow, he grasped the candlestick in one hand, slowly groped his way to the door, and pushed open the heavy and solemn wooden door of the bedroom, and there was a low sound of the wooden door turning in the corridor, like a man stepping on a rotten wooden bridge, making a strange sound.

The hallway was silent, and he walked slowly in the direction of Garion's room, insisting that it was the right choice to leave him behind, and Eugène even felt that this person was a turning point in the fate of the Schneider family.

He stood at the door of Garion's room, and in the darkness except for the faint flames of the candle flames, only the sound of his heavy breathing echoed in his fingers, like a beast marching in the night, surveying the prey in front of him. Eugène took a deep breath and knocked on the door.

Wow.

In the silence, the knock on the door was like a bell, and Eugène even felt that he had woken up his sleeping family in the castle, but after waiting for a moment, he did not wait for the expected sound of the door opening. Eugène finally sighed and prepared to turn away. Unexpectedly, just as he was about to turn around, the door suddenly opened.

Behind him, the light of the candle flame illuminated a small dark hallway, shrouding Eugène in a soft dusk, and he turned in surprise to see Garion standing in the doorway, looking at the slightly hunched old man in front of him.

"Your Excellency Eugène, is there anything going on at such a late hour?"

Garion rubbed his eyes and yawned, his right hand still holding a quill with a stain of ink on his fingertips.

Eugène smiled and said, "Didn't bother Lord Garion, did you?" ”

"Of course not."

Looking at Eugène, who was wearing a coat in front of him, he respectfully stepped out of the way and said, "Why don't you come in and talk about it?" ”

"It's a pleasure."

Eugène blew out the candlestick and walked into Garion's bedroom, Garion, who was standing behind him, closed the door, he walked to the desk, put down the quill in his hand, stretched his waist, and said slowly, "Your Excellency Eugène came to the door so late, I'm afraid there is an urgent matter, right?" ”

"It's about the Krupp cannon......"

Eugène's eyes inadvertently swept to the table, but he was suddenly attracted by the scattered manuscript paper. The sketch above showed a rough drawing of a novel cannon, and to his surprise, it still had various detailed data on it.

"Wait, this is drawn by Lord Garion?"

"Huh? Well. ”

Glancing at the manuscript paper in the other party's hand, Garion honestly admitted, "Yes, I'm trying to draw what I remember, but it's just a little rough. ”

Garion can only remember some general data and patterns.

"I didn't expect His Excellency Garion to be able to draw, it was an eye-opener for me."

Eugène picked up the pattern on the table, and after looking at it a few more times, the doubts between his eyebrows gradually became solemn, he turned his head to look at Garion behind him, his expression was mixed with a hint of doubt, and he asked, "How did Lord Garion get this data, I mean, is this data accurate?" ”

The distance between the two was less than a meter, and it was Garion who spoke first, "The source of the data is correct, is it true that Your Excellency Eugène can't believe that they have created this weapon?" ”

"Yes...... It's incredible, it's incredible. ”

Endless frustration and chagrin came rushing towards him, and finally the old man in front of him sighed and sat down in his chair dejectedly, the manuscript in his hand scattered all over the ground.

"The Schneider family just didn't see the form."

Garion picked up a few pieces of manuscript paper from the ground and placed them neatly on the table, he looked at Eugène behind him, and said in a firm tone, "Do you know what the most profitable business will be in the future?" Not to make steam engines, not to make trains, the most profitable thing is to make munitions! ”

"Munitions?"

Ougène's mind was haunted by ominous words, and he looked at Garion in front of him for some unknown reason, repeating, "Why?" ”

"Because the German nation is about to rise, and the next thing is bound to increase the tension and conflict in Europe, Your Excellency Eugène, in the face of this situation, what do you say can best create profits?"

"Weapons!"

Eugène looked at the young man in front of him in amazement, as if he was Satan from hell, bewitching himself to create a tool for bloody killing. However, Gary Anxin, who was standing in front of him, had already seen through the capitalists' thoughts.

As long as there is a profit of 400 percent, they are willing to risk hanging.

The evening breeze blew through the candlesticks, the flames faltered, and the shadows cast by the two on the walls began to become erratic.

And Garion saw a greedy look in Eugène's dodgy eyes.

"By the way, a little secret for Your Excellency Eugène, the war between France and Prussia may start in the next two or three years, His Majesty Napoleon already has the idea of actively preparing for war, if the Schneider family can develop a weapon comparable to the Krupp cannon, you should know that this will give you a special honor, right? Or maybe get a Legion of Honor? ”

Eugène seemed to see a steady stream of francs coming towards him, and was driven by greed to no longer see the production of weapons as a political task.

The time is almost ripe, and Garion also lays out his own plan.

"Your Excellency Eugène, if you can reproduce the Krupp cannon in two years......"

"One year."

Eugène stood up suddenly, and said with a beaming expression, "Your Excellency Galian, let Paris give me a year, and I can make the same steel behemoth for France, swear in the name of the Schneider family!" ”
