Chapter 123: Super Dura Aluminum
On the bus to Hanover, Halis? Eugene? Adrian broke free from his mother's embrace, happily leaned in front of the car window and sniffed the wildflowers in the valley, his little hands clasped to the beat, and sang loudly the nursery rhymes that his grandmother had taught him. In contrast, the Hansafelt Palace is like a huge cage, he is like a bird that has been released, full of novelty and yearning for the wildness of nature.
The little proud car sped quickly, getting farther and farther away from Berlin, and he was gradually unable to see the shadow of the castle in the west of Berlin, and Helis suddenly found that the situation was a little wrong, the road was not like the direction that his parents usually took him out for outings, and it was not so far.
Helis suddenly lost interest, and turned back to Dinah and asked, "Mom, where are we going?" How come we never came? ”
Dinah touched her son's head and said, "I came, you don't remember, we used to come from this road in a big truck, and then we found my father in Berlin, but now it's in the opposite direction." ”
Little Helis frightened Dinah with wide stunned eyes and said, "Mommy, let's go home quickly, wait until the uncle who is driving gets lost, we won't be able to find home, and Dad will cry when he is alone at home." ”
Dinah didn't know what to say, so she quickly pulled the topic away: "Helis, have you missed grandpa and grandma?" Maybe grandparents are thinking about Halis, believe it or not? ”
Helis blinked and said, "Of course I do, but I miss Dad more now, I want to go home, I don't want to go on an outing, Mom, we should be going home." ”
Seeing that her son's attitude was very resolute, Dinah had to say, "But I miss my mom and dad too, Halis, what do you say?" ”
Helis was silent for a moment and said, "We can bring them to Berlin so you don't have to think about them every day, oh mother, do you mean we're going to Marienburg now?" ”
Dinah pinched little Halis's nose and said, "Yes, we're on our way to Marienburgh now, and we'll probably have to live there for a few days, and then mom will come back to help dad." As soon as the words came out, Dinah immediately found herself speaking with her mouth exposed.
"Parking! Uncle parking! Finding out that he would be able to live in Marienburg away from his parents and grandparents for a long time, Helis was very anxious: "Mom, let's go back to Berlin, I don't want to go to Marienburg!" Damn Marienburg, it's full of hillsides and cows and sheep, there's no Berlin city, and there's no mom and dad......"
The son began to make noise, and Dinah hurriedly coaxed: "Marienburg is very good, grandpa can take you to the valley to hunt every day, grandma can teach you to sing a lot of foreign nursery rhymes at night, there are herds of cows, sheep and flowers around Marienburg, didn't you often make noise to go to the hillside to pick wild flowers?" That's a great idea, and you might even see a lot of honey peaks. Oh, by the way, there's a big apiary over there, and the honey is so sweet. Mom still wants to stay in Marienburg every day, but Mom is not this blessing, because Dad is too busy alone, and so much work in Germany is on his shoulders alone, Mom wants to go back to Berlin to help him, oh! Yes, mom doesn't help him, who helps him? Are you right? ”
Helis looked out the car window, the peaks were left behind, knowing that it was getting farther and farther away from Berlin, and suddenly burst into tears: "I don't want to leave Berlin, I don't want to leave my parents, I hate Marienburg......"
Dinah's heart is actually very conflicted, she never thought of sending the child away before, and it is still so far away from Hanover, but the construction of the country is in the ascendant, Eric works day and night, in case he is tired, this family will be finished. Besides, Berlin is so political, with fierce partisanship and power struggles, that Eric could get involved in the whirlpool of strife at any moment, and she really fears that her son's body and mind will be accidentally hurt.
Helis thought that his mother was just trying to take him out on an outing, but instead of thinking about sending him to his grandfather's house in Maryenburgh, he kept making noise on the way. Dinah tried to calm him down, and after a while, perhaps because the car was too bumpy, Helis fell asleep on top of his mother.
Seeing Helis sleeping soundly, Dinah finally breathed a sigh of relief, found a dress on the seat of the car and gently covered her son, and then put her head out the window, watching the changes in the scenery along the way for more than a year. She was tired and dozed off unconsciously as the car jolted.
Sent Earhart away? Mirch, Eric was much more at ease, and if this timid Social Democrat had been a genius as Stresemann had said, things would have been very easy in Siam. However, Eric's concern now is not so much about how much rubber raw material Siam can send to the German Confederation, because the United States is meddling everywhere, and if the treaty is not completed sooner, I am afraid that there will be many dreams. The more Eric thought about it, the more he felt that this work was urgent, and hurriedly called Anata: "You hurry up and inform the Ministry of Justice, it is best to find Minister William directly?" Mr. Max, ask him to call me in the shortest possible time. Also, notify Earhart immediately? Milch went to the Ministry of Justice to go through the formalities of leaving the country, without asking why, and at the same time told him that his family was arranged by the state and paid for living expenses, and from now on, his salary could be retropaid from the beginning of this year. ”
As soon as Ananta left, Eric called Chancellor Stresemann: "Oh! Dear Mr. Prime Minister, can you answer the phone a little faster, oh! I'm sorry, you're fast enough, but I'm in too much of a hurry. ”
Stresemann on the other end of the phone was confused, laughed and said, "What is the matter with our great President of the German Confederation today?" ”
Eric gently soothed his emotions and said, "Is it like this Stresemann, Earhart?" Milch needs to urgently visit Siam and re-establish diplomatic relations between the two countries, you immediately draft credentials, bypass the cabinet vote, and I will go over and sign them in the evening. ”
Foreign Minister Miller is now in the United States, and he even forgot to let Ananta put Cabinet Secretary Hans? Luther's signed copy was sent by the way. If Dinah had been at home, there would have been no such mistake, and Eric suddenly thought of Dinah with her son, maybe they were on their way to Hanover, maybe they were thinking about themselves, and he said to himself: "Alas! This woman is really, such a big matter has not been discussed in advance, it seems that she can only be alone tonight. ”
Eric looked out the window, it was not too early, he still had an important matter to do before the formalities of the Ministry of Justice were completed, if it weren't for Dinah's reminder in the evening, he would have really forgotten about this person.
Friedrich? Feng? Mullah, a native of Munich, moved his family to England for academic reasons before the start of World War I, and shortly before the start of World War I, the Eric Group learned about him from the country's special talent channel, and then hired him back to China with a high salary. Time flies, and the mullah's work in the UK is not smooth, and he has no way to return home, so he has to live in a foreign country all the time. Could it be that the god of luck hit himself with a colored ball? Until now, the mullah was puzzled as to how a poor worm who had been exiled in a foreign country could be favored by the Eric group.
After returning home, the mullah was assigned to the Eric Arsenal on the outskirts of Dresden, where he was initially involved in the development of some common materials, and after submitting a chromium alloy, he was rewarded by the company, which was enough for him and his family to live comfortably in Munich for the rest of their lives, and the company also applied for a patent for him personally.
When the material for the alloy development was submitted, the mullah was not confident, and could even be said to have an indifferent attitude, because the material was limited in use, at least the barrel could not be made, because it was not wear-resistant.
However, he never expected that the Eric Group would attach so much importance to this alloy material, which was quickly mass-produced by the group according to the patent requirements, and gradually penetrated into many domestic production fields. The alloy was first named mulled steel, and slowly, people became more and more fond of this material and began to change its name because of its properties, which was later stainless steel.
With the mass production of stainless steel, the use is becoming more and more extensive, and the civilian enterprises under the Eric Group have also grabbed a large market at home and abroad because of the use of such materials.
Friedrich? Feng? Not only did the mullah gain wealth but also a major turning point in his life, but he didn't stop there. The courage to explore, never-ending is the slogan of Eric company, but also the internal atmosphere of the enterprise, everyone to technical exchanges, technological innovation as a talking point, rather than envy the wealth of others.
With the outbreak of the First World War, civilian resources were greatly reduced, and military materials began to become the main way for the survival of major enterprises.
Friedrich, who made a major breakthrough in alloy materials? Feng? Mullahs, once again entrusted with the important task of provoking the research and development of aerospace materials, which requires alloy materials to have sufficient strength while being lighter and more durable. This material is actually not difficult to solve, people can use aluminum instead, however, Eric company arsenal has an unwritten rule, everyone commonly uses, the company may not use, do not disdain to use, to use better, to use to use others can not obtain.
Soon, the mullah finally met with another metallurgist, Alfred? This aluminum alloy is another progress in the proportion of components after the manufacture of Dula aluminum in Wilm, which once again made a big step forward in the process of aluminum alloy materials, leaving the existing aluminum alloy industry far behind, however, the next need for a large-scale production system, which is also a very nerve-wracking problem for President Eric.
Dinah knew what her husband was thinking, if she couldn't solve the problem of mass production, and always stayed in a small batch of laboratories to copy, once the research results were leaked, or even mastered by foreign spies, it would be no less than a major war failure, and it might also lose the opportunity to compete in the international market. That's another reason why Dinah had to send her son to Hanover, freeing up her hands to help Eric refine this innovation.
