Ten years ago

I don't know you, you don't belong to me

We're still the same

Stay with a stranger

Walk through the familiar streets

Ten years later

We are friends and can also say hello

Just that kind of gentleness

No more reasons to hug

……

From the third floor of the main building of the Villa Evant, a hoarse singing can be heard from the crimson mansion that is so remarkable in Triestria, because of its owner, Lee Haydon, Grand Duke of Istria, Tyrolean Governor and Deputy Commander-in-Chief of the Imperial Navy. Although since the beginning of the eighteenth. Ninety-four to eighteen. After that crazy round the world tour in '95, he lived in seclusion and rarely set foot on the soil of any other country except Germany.

But that didn't stop him from becoming a high-profile legend across Europe.

In just ten years, the Habsburg family, who had always been mediocre, quickly amassed a fortune of hundreds of millions of pounds around the world. Of course, this is just speculation, and the specific amount of money that the young Grand Duke has, may not even be clear to his chief butler.

His industry has spread throughout the Austro-Hungarian Empire and all corners of Germany, including the Imperial Standard Electrical Company and the Steyr Power Machinery Company in Vienna, the Machine-Building Company and the Arsenal, the Oil Refinery and Shipyard in Trieste, the Oil Company and the Oil Refinery in Bukovina, the Coal Mine and Chemical Industry Company in Cechin, the Iron and Steel Company and the Automobile Tractor Manufacturing Company in Linz, the North Sea Shipyard in Lübeck, Germany, the Maybach-Daimler Power and Automobile Manufacturing Company in Dortmund, the Chemical Company in Silesia... … He also has significant investments in the Far East, South America and Mexico, where his shipping lines account for 13 percent of the annual Europe-Far East route......

It is enviable and even envious, but it is undeniable that this man has an incomparable talent and extremely keen foresight in the field of industry and commerce, and the industries involved in this young Austro-Celestial royal family are without exception, extremely rapid development and promising industries...... This cannot be reproduced.

"Haydn, what are you singing?" Chogula's figure appeared at the door of the study, she was wearing a pale cyan silk dress, revealing her plump shoulders, and the dazzling twin peaks of half white on her chest were still round and straight. Although she is nearly forty years old, her skin still looks very delicate, but there are already a few faint wrinkles at the corners of her eyes, which adds a bit of mature and charming temperament.

"Oh, you're back, you rarely come to the cliff villa now, I really miss you." Lechelton stood up, gently hugged his ** into his arms, and kissed her bright red lips.

"I miss you too, but your refinery is turning the seaside sky black, and the air here is terrible." Chogula walked over to the piano and sat down, "The song is very good, I hear your thoughts, but not necessarily for me." By the way, is the Grand Duchess okay? She said not without jealousy, referring to Heldon's wife.

LeHaydon in 18. In 96, according to Emperor Franz's intentions, he married the eighteen-year-old Irene, a German princess from the Hohenzollern family. Heldon did not fantasize about any free marriage, the marriages of the Habsburgs were always in line with interests, and Irene was chosen by herself at a royal court ball.

He and Chogura certainly couldn't get together, and though he liked her too, unless they renounced their Austrian citizenship, which is a strictly Catholic country, and divorce was not allowed.

He didn't want to allow himself to be blamed by the emperor for his marriage like Ferdinand, and although Archduke Ferdinand and Sophie had always been affectionate, Emperor Franz didn't. He believed that Sophie's identity was not worthy of the Habsburgs, and he had refused to give Sophie the title of Grand Duchess of Sophie.

Li Haidon was very obedient to the family's arrangement, and the old emperor was also very satisfied with this marriage, which gave him a certain say in imperial affairs.

However, Chogula was full of jealousy, and sometimes deliberately stayed in Vienna for long periods of time, leaving Lehedon alone in Trieste.

"It's good that Erin is in the Palazzo San Ferenti, living with her parents." "She's pregnant, and though she's a little headstrong at times, she's still a child. ”

"Oh my God, that's a great event." "Shouldn't we celebrate?" ”

"How can I hear you say this, there is no congratulation in the slightest." Lechelton said, "Are you jealous? ”

Jogura stood up and wrapped her arms around his neck tightly, "Yes, yes, I'm jealous, why haven't I had a baby for you in so many years. She whispered in his ear, her body trembling a little, and her moist lips made Lechelton horny.

"That's because we're not working hard enough, so let's start now." Leherdon picked up Jogula's plump and elastic delicate body and strode towards the bedroom.

……

Colonel Rozner strode through the rattling work area of the Isterian shipyard to the outfitting dock north of the shipyard, where three almost identical cruisers were docked in a single column, and one such warship was placed on the slipway. These are four armored cruisers of the same class built by the shipyard for the Argentines, the "Four Generals", the "General Garibaldi", which has almost finished outfitting, the "General San Martín" and "General Pelleton", which are being outfitted, and the "General Belgrano", which has not yet been launched.

However, these 7,300-ton giants have nothing to do with his work now, and his target is the Zanta, an experimental light protection cruiser with a steam turbine engine at only 2,350 tons.

Rotzner even somewhat regretted if it weren't for in the eighteen. In '97, if Helton had to put the first test of a marine steam turbine on the 390-ton "Mercury" and choose a smaller ship, then the great honor brought by the British "Turbonia" might have belonged to him. Since the Mercury was almost ten times heavier than the Turbonya and had many more difficulties in building the turbines, the first successful sea trials were less than two months behind the British.

Of course, the speed was not as fast as the British, only just 30 knots.

The Steyr steam turbine uses the principle of impulse work, which is different from the reactionary turbine used in the Parsons type in England, and it has been patented in Europe and the United States.

Vice Admiral Popel, the technical director of the Imperial Navy, was very interested in this new technology, and with the support of Lee Haydn and him, the Imperial Admiralty successively tested the two 780-ton destroyers "Neptune" and "Meteor" and Lee Haydon's own 2,300-ton "Theater Royal" private yacht. Steam turbines have shown great promise, with high power and high speed performance that is almost impossible to achieve with traditional piston steam engines, and they run smoothly, generating much less vibration at high speeds than cylinder steam engines.

The only drawback is that at low speeds the coal consumption is nearly twice as high as that of a piston reciprocating steam engine.

After more than three years of testing, of course, the trials of Israia Shipyard and Steyr Power Company were as early as 18. Ninety-five years began, Steyr. Mann Dynamics' turbine-building technology matured, and General Popper finally agreed to begin this new experiment on the Empire's newest light cruiser.

Ever since the design of the armored cruiser presided over by Lee Haydon won the Argentine's order for four armored cruisers by beating out the Italians in the bidding, the legend has gained enough prestige and voice in the technical committee of the Imperial Navy, and every one of his projects has been given enough attention.

It was thanks to the support and promotion of the Grand Duke that turbine technology was rapidly applied in the Imperial Navy.

It is said that Crown Prince Ferdinand, who is interested in the navy, is going to take part in the first sea trials of the "Zanta", and Rotsk needs to carefully check the test operation of the equipment himself, and he does not want to mess up such an important performance.
