My Italian

Chapter 62: frightened?

After arranging Maxim to the Beretta Arms Company in Brescia, Carlo plans to make persistent efforts to find several famous people to bring him to Italy.

However, his poor knowledge reserve limited Carlo's play. After racking his brains, all he thought of were world-famous scientists. Now these people are the treasures of their respective countries, and their research is basically theoretical, which is of little use to Italy, so he finally chose to give up. After all, I didn't carry Baidu with me, so I had everything I wanted to know. People like Maxim and Tesla are mostly too famous and still in their infancy. Such talent is too rare and too rare.

Since he gave up the idea of ​​collecting scientists, Carlo can only continue to go to school. That's right, Carlo is still a student, and he is in a good school time. Although there are several teachers, he is the only student.

In addition to going to school, when Carlo has time, he and the little maid will hold hands with the little maid, hug and feel the fragrance of the girl's body, and then go to Marino to see Tesla, who is busy as a dog, and Mark Qin, who is working quickly. boring again.

But compared to Carlo's boredom, DePretis, the prime minister, is much more tired. As Prime Minister, he is busier now than before. On the one hand, after the signing of the three-nation military alliance, there has been more capital from Germany.

In addition, as one of the terms, Germany will provide Italy with some military technology. Although some of this needs to be taken over by the military, he always needs to ask, so the people in the Prime Minister's Office are now walking fast and busy with their own work.

"How did the military accept it?"

Prime Minister DePretis, who had just finished processing a document, looked up and saw the secretary standing beside him and immediately asked.

"General Saragate, Minister of the Army, sent a message that many of the military technologies provided by Germany are outdated, and the military is somewhat dissatisfied with this."

After hearing the news, the Prime Minister rubbed his temples with his hands and gave an order. "Tell Admiral Saragate to pick something that works and don't complain that we all need to build trust in the beginning."

"OK."

"Anything else, just say it."

"In addition, the National Railway Company sent a telegram, they said that the railway from Palermo to Messina was more difficult than expected due to the terrain, and the budget was estimated to be insufficient, and they hoped that the government could allocate another 6 million liras for their construction. "

Hearing this, Depretis looked over. "How is this going?"

Secretary Usopp, who was glanced at by the Prime Minister, scolded the railway company inwardly and continued. "According to the report of the railway company, there is a section of railway that has to pass through the collapsed area, which they did not expect before, so the subgrade and mountain body of this section need to be reinforced."

Saying that, he took out another document. "It's a list of extra budgets for the railroads."

Depretis took the list, read it carefully, and signed it. "Give it to the Ministry of Finance and let them allocate money, but you need to send someone to monitor the use of this money."

"clear."

After answering, Secretary Usopp turned around and prepared to leave.

"Wait a minute."

The secretary who was stopped by the Prime Minister immediately asked. "Your Excellency, is there anything else?"

"What is your majesty doing recently?"

The Prime Minister's topic made the secretary tremble, but he still answered truthfully. "According to what I know, His Majesty recently went to Marino and Brescia outside of class."

"It seems that our majesty attaches great importance to the two he recruited."

At this time, Secretary Usopp only hated why he had ears, but fortunately then the Prime Minister let him go, and the secretary disappeared with a swoosh like a rabbit.

Seeing the frightened secretary slipping away, the Prime Minister smiled and said nothing. My secretary is good at everything, but he is too timid. But it is precisely because of his timidity that he was chosen.

Of course, he didn't have any ideas when he asked King Carlo's movements, but it was a normal inquiry. After all, he was the prime minister, so he always needed to know the king's movements.

Carlo, who was inquired by the Prime Minister, returned to Rome just after his trip to Brescia. However, as soon as he arrived in Rome, he was immediately attracted by a piece of intelligence from the Far East.

This information was sent by the Italian Minister in Qing Dynasty. Although the Minister did not know why His Majesty paid so much attention to the information of the Far East, he was still responsible for sending back the events in the Far East to China, so that the embassy in Qing only wanted to pass it on. The news cost more than 100,000 liras of additional funds.

In this telegram, it was written that the Chinese and French businessmen had signed the terms of Vietnam. There are three main ones: 1. Vietnam pays tribute to China, China withdraws its troops, and France declares that it has no intention of occupying Vietnam’s land and violating Vietnam’s sovereignty; 2. Vietnam’s opening up to ensure victory (the Black Flag Army base); 3. China and Vietnam are bounded by the Red River, allowing The Red River is navigable.

This information surprised Carlo. He remembered that two years later, the Sino-French war started because of Vietnam~www.wuxiaspot.com~ But what happened to this clause, it was obvious that an agreement was reached. You must know that you made a bet in advance and prepared two cruise ships to surprise the French. Now the surprise is gone, but the shock is here.

That's right, Carlo intends to intervene in the upcoming Sino-French war. It's not because he has feelings for me in Qing Dynasty. He has hated braid drama since he was a child. Ghosts have feelings for Qing, and he covets the market of Qing.

However, it is a pity that Italy is not strong enough and has no foothold in the Far East, so the British and French gunboat diplomacy cannot be achieved by Italy.

Since you can't get hard, you need to get soft. If you want to be soft, then you must make it have enough goodwill towards Italy. Unlike Germany, which established itself as the first army in Europe with the Franco-Prussian War, it has a natural advantage.

Then the upcoming Sino-French war is the opportunity that Carlo thinks. This is the most beautiful war fought in the Qing Dynasty. As long as Italy plays a sufficient role in it, then the bosses who follow the strategy of using the barbarians to control the barbarians will definitely not let them. Friends suffer. At that time, take the opportunity to open up the market, and rely on the shareholder wind of the Westernization Movement to find a way for Italian products.

It turned out that Carlo had everything ready, but Dongfeng said that it would not come. Isn't this funny.

"There must be something wrong."

Facing this sudden information from the Far East, Carlo was at a loss for a long time.

"Don't worry, there will be a way, you can wait and see."

Carlo is very patient and intends to observe it first. And the following news made him put his heart in his stomach. The French government did not approve this clause and withdrew Bao Hai, the minister in Qing Dynasty.

It seemed that the Sino-French war was unavoidable, so Carlo was relieved.
