"Your Majesty, you have overdone it! This is just a preliminary design, and it's far from what you're specifying! ”

The corners of the old Mauser's mouth showed a shy smile, and he modestly said to Jérôme. Bonaparte responded.

"That's right! If I had to equip this rifle into the army in advance, would the improved version be able to do it directly on this rifle! "Jérôme. Bonaparte then asked old Mauser.

Old Mauser was silent for a moment, and then tactfully addressed Jérôme. Bonaparte replied, "Your Majesty, I can't answer this either!" For any firearm, there is still some gap between the preliminary design product and the final product!

If there is not much difference, it is still easy to improve!

If the difference is large, then there may be some difficulties in improving it! ”

The words of the elder Mauser made Jérôme. Bonaparte remembered the historical Chasebo rifle, which was born at the wrong time and was sent straight to the cold after only a few wars.

Although the later Grasse rifle was said to be modified on the basis of the Chasebo rifle, the cost of improvement was not low at all.

However, the performance is still inferior to the Mauser rifle of the period.

"Then ...... Wait! "Jérôme. Bonaparte abandoned the idea of mass equipment, and then asked the old Mauser if there was a possibility of small-scale mass production of rifles.

Old Mauser told Jérôme. As long as Bonaparte's factories in the industrial park are willing to cooperate, then small-scale mass production is not a problem.

"I will ask the factories in the park to cooperate with you as much as possible!" Jérôme. Bonaparte said to old Mauser, "You only need to make more than 1,000 rifles for the first batch!" ”

Jérôme. Bonaparte was going to use these more than 1,000 rifles to arm an expedition and then infiltrate West and Central Africa in the name of scientific expeditions.

This would not only satisfy the test of the performance of new weapons, but also justify the colonization of Central and West Africa.

He believed that with breech-loading guns and quinine, France would be able to conquer the lands of West and Central Africa as history has done.

"Yes! Your Majesty! Old Mauser nodded to Jérôme. Bonaparte said.

"And! Rifles and metal cartridges can't be slackened at all, and I'll let Basilio continue to invest more in you! "Jérôme. Bonaparte admonished again, and then added: "And in view of your performance this time, I will award you the Order of the Legion of Glory of the Fourth Class (equivalent to a knighthood), and I hope you will continue to do your best!" ”

Old Mauser immediately smiled when he heard that he had been canonized as a member of the aristocracy, he did not expect that he would become a member of the nobility so quickly.

Although the knighthood of France is not too precious, it is still a symbol of honor.

As long as he can continue to work hard, there is no possibility of being canonized as a baron.

Subsequently, Jérôme. Bonaparte and Mauser Sr. returned to the gunsmith company.

On the way back, Jérôme. Bonaparte asked the old Mauser if he would like to give him this rifle, numbered 0001.

The old Mauser was very up-to-date if Jérôme. Bonaparte, if he liked, could have taken the rifle away.

"Then I'll take it!" Jérôme. Bonaparte unceremoniously said a word to the old Mauser, and then asked the old Mauser about the progress of his work on the multi-barreled machine gun.

"During this time, Mr. Chasebo has been following me to design the rifle, so the multi-barreled machine gun is still being designed!" Old Mauser hurriedly played a round for Xia Sebo.

"No wonder!" Jérôme. Bonaparte muttered in a low voice, he said why there was still rubber on the Mauser rear-loading gun, it turned out to be Chasebo's idea!

"Your Majesty, do you want me to call him over to you!" Old Mauser vs. Jérôme. Bonaparte asked.

"That's not necessary!" Jérôme. Bonaparte shook his head and rejected the old Mauser's suggestion, then took out his pocket watch and glanced at the time.

It was already around 11:30 p.m., and before he knew it, two and a half hours had passed since he got off the train.

"Valeves, Vilnia, it's time for us to go!" Jérôme. Bonaparte hurriedly beckoned Valevsky and Vilnia to leave.

If I don't leave, I'm afraid I'll have to go back and accept Augusta's "scolding".

"Your Majesty, I'll send you!" The elder Mauser will Jérôme. Bonaparte was sent to the crossroads.

Jérôme. The Bonaparte trio went to the office where Basilio was.

And Basilio, who had been waiting in the office for a long time, received Jérôme. Immediately after the news of Bonaparte's arrival, he personally went to meet Jérôme. Bonaparte.

Jérôme. Bonaparte quickly gave Basilio the task: "1. Immediately open a dye company in the park, and grant it to William in the Umbrella Institute. 150,000 francs plus 17% stake in the Parkin Institute! By the way, you also have to draft a patent contract, which is not a single patent, but for William. All patents for the next 30 years of Parkin. 2. A reward of 150,000 francs each for the Umbrella Institute and the Old Mauser Gun Company...... Do you understand? ”

"Yes! Your Majesty! I'll do it right away! "Basilio hurried to Jérôme. Bonaparte replied, "By the way, Your Majesty, that William. Parkin ......"

"William. Parkin made a synthetic purple dye in the laboratory, which could act on silk. "Jérôme. Bonaparte said to Basilio.

Basilio instantly smelled the smell of money, "If this dye is put on the market, it will definitely sell well!" ”

"That's right!" Jérôme. Bonaparte nodded, "After the signing is completed, you will quickly go to Britain and Germany to apply for a patent!" If I apply late, I'm afraid something will happen. ”

Jérôme. Bonaparte's change refers to the fact that during this time, the same dye was also developed.

After all, there are too many bloody battles for patents on the European continent.

As far as the current steelmaking method is concerned, NORINCO is working with William. Kelly filed a lawsuit in Britain over the issue.

William. Kelly has been calling for the new steelmaking method to be stopped in Britain on the grounds that it was his first creation.

Despite the fact that Jérôme. William Bonaparte. Kelly is just some of the steel giants in Britain who have been pushed out to fight in the ring, but he can't directly strangle him through official power.

Like William. Kelly, a guy like you, can't hurt you, but he can bore you like a fly.

Jérôme. Bonaparte didn't want to appear too much like William. Guy like Kelly.

"Your Majesty, do you still need to apply for a patent on the side of the United States of America?" Basilio asked again.

"Apply! Why not apply! "Jérôme. Bonaparte gritted his teeth and said to Barcirio: "Tell us that in the United States of America, if anyone dares to steal technology without the permission of the company!" It doesn't matter who we are, no matter how small the scale, one sues the other! Sue them until they go bankrupt! ”

"Your Majesty, if you sue one company after another, I am afraid that our interests in the United States of America will be fully invested in a long lawsuit!!" Basilio vs Jérôme. Bonaparte reminded.

As the United States of America, which started with piracy, there were still all kinds of small factories left at this time, and they had no fear of patent law and carried out piracy work with impunity.

It's not particularly easy to take these guys down!

"No amount of investment is worth it!" Jérôme. Bonaparte said steadfastly, "Only if we are unwavering about piracy can we make more profits!" ”

Basilio eventually obeyed Jérôme. Bonaparte's suggestion.

"Alright, that's all I have to say!" Jérôme. Bonaparte shrugged his shoulders and said to Basilio: "Now you can find a car and send me back!" ”

Basilio quickly for Jérôme. Bonaparte arranged a carriage, and not only that, but he also arranged for Jérôme. Bonaparte was equipped with several veterans who were in charge of escorting him back.

"Forget it!" Jérôme. Bonaparte shook his head and said to Bajirio, "If too many men are sent, anyone with a discerning eye will see that there is a heavyweight in the carriage." Aren't you increasing my danger in disguise! ”

"I was negligent!" Basilio hurried to Jérôme. Bonaparte apologized and revoked the original escort Jérôme. Bonaparte's returning soldiers.

That's it Jérôme. Bonaparte and Vilna returned to the Tuileries Palace in a carriage, while Valewski returned to the Quai d'Orsay in another carriage.

When Jérôme. When Bonaparte's carriage arrived at the gardens of the Tuileries, the guards guarding the gardens immediately stopped the carriage in its path.

"Please show your invitation!"

"I don't have an invitation!"

"I'm sorry! You can't go in! ”

Jérôme sitting in the carriage. Bonaparte, hearing the conversation between the coachman and the patrol guards, opened the curtains, put his head close to the windowsill, and half-jokingly said: "Can I get in with this face!" ”

When the guards heard the sound, they immediately looked into the carriage and saw Jérôme. Bonaparte's face immediately changed dramatically, and then they turned to Jérôme in the carriage. Bonaparte saluted: "Your Majesty! ”

"That's it! Get out of the way! "Jérôme in the carriage. Bonaparte waved his hand to the patrol guards.

The patrol guards hurriedly made way for the carriage, which arrived at the gate of the Tuileries Palace.

Jérôme. Bonaparte pushed open the door and went straight into the courtyard of the Tuileries Palace, where Mocal, who was instructing the servants of the Tuileries Palace on the first floor, saw Jérôme. Immediately after Bonaparte, a smile of joy appeared on his face: "Your Majesty! ”

"Mocal, where is my lovely son Friedrich now? Bring it over! "Jérôme. Bonaparte asked Mocal straight to the point.

"Please follow me!"
