The prophecy of the little prophet Alice Phil came true, and after three days of suffering, Eugenie decided to accept the marriage proposal of the Emperor of France, and it seems that the glory of being the queen still exceeds that of being a tyrant's wife. Before parting, Miss Montiruo also came to the Situo Garden alone to say goodbye to the local tyrant.

I have to give the little baron some explanation, otherwise my mother's desire to be Leica's agent in France will definitely be frustrated, in fact, Miss Montiruo is not sure if her decision will annoy Downing, in any case, it is better to annoy the big tyrant than to annoy the emperor of **Lancy.

In this era, there is social pressure for young single girls to visit men alone, but Eugenie is a heroine, and this is the daylight of the lively Situ Garden, the headquarters of the International School Park, Faraday Power Company, Lego Company, Knights of the Round Table Company are nearby, and the number of employees and students adds up to more than 1,000 people, and they often go in and out of the Situ Palace, so Eugenie This is a business visit, and the pressure is a little less.

When Eugenie met Downing, he was playing with Lego bricks with four children. One of the four children was a guest of honor, Princess Louise. The other three are two Zhengtai and a Lolita of the International School Park.,That Lolita is 6-year-old Linfeier.。

Some people are puzzled, isn't 4-year-old Princess Louise angry because she didn't receive a gift from Downing for her bicycle? Why do you still want to come to Uncle Downing's place to play? This one...... Because Downing found that once the news in the Telegraph was related to the royal family, it was particularly popular, such as the case of the Knights of the Round Table bicycles sent to Queen Victoria's family. Downing, who has a talent for hype, planned a news related to the royal family, built a stroller and gave it to Princess Louise Jr., with the headline "Uncle Downing apologizes to Princess Louise and gives away a special children's bicycle". Children also have their own bicycles, and "it seems" that the entire stroller product line is built for little Princess Louise, under the fanning of the queen and his wife, little Princess Louise fell in love with Uncle Downing completely, and today she followed her 12-year-old sister Princess Victoria to Downing's house to play. However, the eldest princess Victoria loves to study and reads books in Downing's library, and the four children play together.

The beautiful and moving countess came, and Linfield looked at this "great rival" with round eyes, and heard Tangning's voice in his ears: "You guys play by yourself, I'm going to entertain distinguished guests." ”

Linfil was distracted and was criticized by Princess Louise: "Why don't you move?" Put it here! In desperation, she had to return to the world of Lego, and of course, no matter how talented a precocious child was, she would forget about her rival after three minutes.

When the two arrived at the empty marble salon, Tangning smiled calmly and said in French, "Congratulations, Your Majesty the Empress." "In English, queen is both queen and queen, and in French, reine is both queen and queen, so it is appropriate to call her majesty.

Eugenie: "...... How do you know? ”

Tang Ning was cooking Tieguanyin from Fujian with his own hands, entertaining the future Empress of France with the tea ceremony of the Great Qing Dynasty, and said lightly: "I can see from the wording of the telegram you sent and your current expression, if you come to agree to my proposal, it should be a shy look, but I regret to see the shameful look, alas......"

Fortunately, he didn't have a deep relationship with Eugenie, and he wasn't sure that she was the lady he was going to marry, so the sadness was faint, and the rationalist couldn't have made any vigorous moves.

Eugenie was amazed: "So, can we still be friends?" ”

Tang Ning first scooped the tea dumplings from the jar with a spoon, and said gracefully: "Look at what you said, it is an honor to be friends with the Queen of France, and it is too late to be happy." ”

Eugenie doesn't have a queen's style now, a queen's style, and speaks like a little girl: "I take what you say seriously, then I'm going to say a serious thing - my mother said that she wants to be Leica's general agent in France, and with our family's influence in France in the future, it will greatly promote Leica's sales in France. ”

Downing didn't answer her immediately, and seemed to be preoccupied with boiling water.

Electricity is different, the way Downing now uses boiling water is also electricity, of course, it is a very rudimentary electric stove, the heat and luminescence can be seen by the naked eye, there is no optimization for boiling water at all, Downing has instructed his men to develop a special electric kettle for boiling water, but it has not yet succeeded, not to mention automatic functions such as automatic timing. This thing is a heating element, made of resistive wire with high resistivity and high melting point wound around an insulating material, which is very simple, but Eugenie has seen it for the first time, and her business sense is not much worse than that of her mother, and she is very interested in asking if this thing is his new invention.

Downing: "Yes, but this needs to be used after electricity is popularized, and France can't do it for the time being." The City of London will be the first place to have electricity universal. ”

The boiling water was quickly boiled, but he still did not answer Eugenie's question about Leica, and concentrated on introducing the purple clay pot he used to make tea. This is an old friend Xu Rongcun from Beijing brought from Beijing to the contemporary famous Hanlin Academy to edit the stone scoop pot made by Huang Pengnian, but unfortunately the local tyrant tea family did not even recognize the words of the poem above, just blindly boasted that this is a famous product, focusing on the introduction of purple sand This material has a good thermal insulation effect, this tea set is not hot.

Europeans have the habit of putting sugar in tea, and Eugenie also asked: "Do Chinese drink tea without sugar?" ”

Tang Ning: "Of course I don't add it, in fact, the unsweetened tea tastes better, this is a kind of elegant charm, although it is not as enjoyable as adding sugar when drinking, but it is comfortable in the mouth after drinking." Sugar has two sins, one is to make people fat, the other is to make people's teeth sick, neither of them is a good thing, so I would like to ask your majesty to develop the habit of not eating sugar. ”

Eugenie corrected him in embarrassment: "Don't call me Queen, it sounds weird, call ...... Call it when you get to Paris. ”

Tang Ning was as good as a stream: "Okay, then I will still call you Eugenie, alas, it's a pity, what a good girl, to marry a fake Napoleon...... This impostor Napoleon, I guess he will hate me, because I robbed him of his marriage, Leica France agent, I thought, or forget it, it's not that I don't give it to you, but I don't want to start this business in France, I heard that the French are very fond of Leica, well, just do it, just right, in this way, I am qualified to bargain with Napoleon III, he must agree that my telegraph and telegraph company operate in France, otherwise Leica and all my products in the future will not enter France, including the great electricity, Lamp. Please help me convey this to Louis. ”

Eugenie frowned: "You still say it's a friend, aren't you taking revenge on me?" ”

Tang Ning rolled his eyes: "How is it revenge...... Okay, I'll give you a gift, wait for ......" He left the café, and after a while, came out with a cardboard box. The carton is beautifully packaged, and at first glance it is a new invention that he wants to commoditize.

Eugénie pronounces the above words: "Toothpaste & Toothbrush Set......"

The handle of the toothbrush in this era is generally made of animal bones, which has a strange shape, while the bristles are made of animal hair, using pig bristles at the low end and badger hair at the high end, which not only has bacteria remaining, but also is easy to fall off. The new invention of Downing is a white and white fine-haired soft-bristled toothbrush, neat and uniform, beautiful and abnormal, the handle is an old friend acetate, and the material of the hair is the newly invented nylon, which is a particularly wear-resistant material, suitable for making brushes, and its raw materials are cotton and wood.

With the inventor is a surprise every day, and every day there is a new love, and Eugenie can't put down the beautiful little toothbrush with high elasticity and consistency, and it is obvious that she loves this gift.

Compared with small toothbrushes, toothpaste is super high-tech, not extremely high, but super high. Eugenie was very knowledgeable, but she was unlikely to know the ultra-high-tech content of this toothpaste, which was filled in an extraordinary container of metal hose - aluminum.

Just being able to use aluminium is a breakthrough in the industry. Aluminum, a metal that does not have a natural presence in nature like iron, was discovered very late, and by 1808, Faraday's teacher, known as the father of inorganic chemistry, Humphrey? David named it and tried to produce it, and the actual production was not until 1825, when the Danish chemist Hans ? Oster successfully used potassium to reduce aluminium from aluminium chloride. In 1827, the German chemist Friedrich Friedrich, who synthesized urea from inorganic substances, shocked the world? Wühler uses potassium to reduce molten anhydrous aluminum chloride to obtain a purer elemental metallic aluminum. Due to the hard-won income, the price of aluminum was higher than that of gold at that time. In order to show off, Napoleon the Great entertained his guests with gold and himself with more expensive aluminum tableware. Although the price of aluminum has dropped a lot because of Wüler's invention, it is still a precious metal.

Downing was able to treat precious metals as containers for daily necessities, of course, because he had a technological breakthrough in aluminum-making, and because of the widespread deployment of electricity in his own factories, he was able to use electrolytic methods that no one else could use to make aluminum. Aluminum is another metal that is used on a large scale after steel, and it has many advantages that steel does not have. It is lighter and easier to shape, and everyone has more or less seen how pottery is shaped by rotation and shape, and aluminum is soft and highly malleable, and it can be molded like pottery by replacing the potter's hand with steel tools, and can be molded into various utensils. One of the major disadvantages of steel is rust, and the oxidation of aluminum in the air will produce a layer of dense alumina, which wraps the container tightly and impermeable, thereby preventing further oxidation of aluminum, and naturally has the function of anti-oxidation and anti-corrosion.

Of course, the current production of aluminium in the UK is not enough to make aluminium cheap enough to be used on a large scale, so aluminium hose toothpaste is also a luxury, although toothpaste cannot be sold on a "rental" basis, but the toothpaste skin still needs to be recycled, and this gift to the Queen of France is an exception.

The thing people used to brush their teeth in this era is powdered calcium carbonate, small particles are insoluble in water, and it is a "friction agent" used to clean teeth, which can be called tooth cleaning powder. Of course, the powder cannot be applied to the toothbrush, so people use their hands to scoop up the powder and apply it to their teeth, and then brush their teeth with a flutter. Downing's invention of toothpaste is to add a wetting agent to keep the paste for a long time, when a milky white toothpaste is squeezed out of the aluminum tube, Eugenie feels an unprecedented joy, this is the charm of technology.

When Eugenie squeezed out the toothpaste and stuck it to the toothbrush to worship and watch, Downing knew that he had created another era and changed the habits of life in this era.

Downing encouraged her to give it a try: "This toothpaste has mint and sweetener in it, it tastes very good, you can give it a try." ”

Do ladies brush their teeth in front of men? Of course, it was embarrassing, but her curiosity about high technology had made her forget who she was as a lady and the future queen, and she did go to Downing's bathroom to brush her teeth, and someone was still watching her.

Tang Ning solemnly introduced: "The toothpaste is added with active agents to produce rich foam, and now it feels like the whole mouth is full of happy foam?" ”

The lady who brushed her teeth couldn't speak, blinking her big eyes and nodding, Tang Ning looked funny.

In order to teach the lady the advanced way of brushing her teeth, Tang Ning also picked up a toothbrush and squeezed the toothpaste, demonstrating it to her.

The two of them brushed their teeth together with fun, and before the time passed unconsciously, Eugenie finally vomited all the dreams of happiness, and laughed confidently like Downing.

Tang Ning: "Isn't the toothpaste with mint refreshing?" ”

Eugénie nodded vigorously, adoring the inventor to the point of no return, and used "amazing" to describe her mood at this moment. （http:／/.)。

Downing said triumphantly, "fresh breath, extremely confident", seeing Eugenie's shocked appearance, how cute and beautiful, he opened his mouth and spewed at the future queen, teasing her.

What a faux pas, fortunately no one saw it here, and after arriving in Paris, he would not see this young and handsome little baron for a long time, and Eugenie also spat a sweet breath at him, and responded to his teasing.

If Eugenie had reprimanded the frivolous little baron, her journey to becoming queen would have been smooth sailing, but she responded to the other party in such a way. There was no doubt that his heart was beating faster and the blood of the beast was boiling when her moist scent blew on his face.

Eugenie was also like a deer, hung her head, and did not flee immediately, giving the predators in the love field the feeling of "the queen loses her deer, and the world chases her".

When Tang Ning took her hand, she felt shocked and said "no". Her "no" was worse than not saying it, because her tone was so weak and delicate.

Tang Ning, who was about to attack with all his might, had already grabbed her small waist, pulled her plump breasts closer, and pressed them against his chest, making the two beating hearts resonate and make the flame of love burn more fiercely.

Downing whispered softly in her ear: "Paris, a wild place with no electricity, no electric lights, no electric stoves, no personal telegraphs, no bicycles, no washing machines, no toothpaste, stay in London, marry me, Countess Tewa." ”
