Corcovado Mountain, with an altitude of 2,310 feet and a height of 709 meters, is not far from the bay and close to the main city. It is the most ideal place for sightseeing in Rio de Janeiro.
This mountain was later called Monte Cristo because of the huge statue of Christ. It is a famous landmark in Brazil and the world.
But there is no statue of Christ here now, and the history of the statue no longer exists.
In 1922, the 100th anniversary of Brazil's independence, the Brazilian Catholic Church and the nuns jointly signed a petition asking President Pessoa to build a statue of Jesus. This statue was the work of the famous Brazilian sculptor Val Costa and his companions, who spent a full 5 years.
After years of careful design and collaborative sculpture, it was an architectural feat completed in 1931.
The Christ Statue in Rio de Janeiro is 38 meters high, 28 meters wide, and weighs more than a thousand tons. The statue faces the rippling blue Atlantic Ocean, with its open arms looking from a distance, like a huge cross, looking solemn and majestic.
The huge Jesus statue is built on the top of this mountain. It can be seen from most areas of the city no matter day or night, becoming the most famous symbol of the famous Brazilian city of Rio de Janeiro.
Tangning would never let such a good place pass.
On the top of this mountain, Tang Ning will build a large statue of the current king. By then, in many places in Rio de Janeiro, people in the capital will be able to see it only by raising their heads, and foreign ships entering the port of Rio de Janeiro will also be the first to see it when they arrive in Rio de Janeiro.<

Idol worship is unacceptable in many countries.
But Brazil has its own national conditions!
The Kingdom of Brazil will soon become the Empire of Brazil.
If everything goes well and Portugal is ruled again, the United Kingdom of Portugal-Brazil-Algarve will reappear, and the Great Portuguese Empire will return gloriously.
The great Portuguese Empire could become a famous country in the world, and once again dreamed of returning to the pinnacle of great navigation.
As the king, Tang Ning believes that his contribution to Brazil is infinite and great. Even now, his contribution to Brazil is immeasurable.
At this moment, in this country, in this situation, the statue of the king in Corcovado Mountain was built at the right time.
The First Kingdom of Brazil was overthrown due to the weakness of the royal power. As the monarch who founded the Second Kingdom of Brazil, Tang Ning infinitely elevated the royal power.
Public opinion must be controlled, propaganda must be done well, political power must be firmly held, laws must be determined, and the monarchy and constitution must be clear. Learn from the great German Empire.
Although it is a constitutional monarchy, as for how to legislate, Tang Ning, as the de facto monarch, directly learns from De Er.
Of course, Tangning couldn't control everything, control everything, and do everything by herself, which would exhaust herself to death sooner or later.
Administrative officers, administrative officers, and justices should separate the three powers and control the military, public opinion, supervision, review, and appointment.
For national affairs, let professional people handle it. If something goes wrong, someone will take the blame. If it is done well, doesn’t the king have a lot of credit?
Once the ten-year transitional period is up, Tang Ning will retire from behind the scenes.
In the past ten years, what we need to do now is to bring Brazil into the formal fold, and at the same time shape the authority of the royal power during this period, so that the people will remember who has helped this country.
Idol worship is the most important thing for the king, and the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.
The shape of the king's statue was determined by Tang Ning early on, and it was directly based on the statue of Christ in Rio de Janeiro.
The entire statue weighs 1,145 tons, 38 meters high and 28 meters wide. The king faces the rippling Atlantic Ocean with his arms outstretched. From a distance, it looks like a huge cross, looking solemn and majestic.
.
The huge statue of the king has been built on the top of the mountain since January, and the project took three years.
After it was completed, the king's statue was on the top of this mountain and could be seen from most areas of the capital city, day or night.
On April 1, Tangning took a group of people to Corcovado Mountain to personally observe the construction progress.
Helen, panting a little out of breath.
"Brother, don't you feel tired? You were walking so fast just now, and what's so good about this broken foundation?"
The workers had already left because of the arrival of the royal family. Helen looked at the foundation slowly being cast in the big pit in front of her and felt very boring.
When I came here, I just saw this. This mountain climb was so tiring that Helen felt it was not worth it.
Although Corcovado Mountain is not high, less than a thousand meters, it is still a quite big mountain. It is a long distance to climb from the foot of the mountain to the mountain.
Although a small railway has been built to reach the middle of the mountain, after the train reaches the end, people still need to climb 222 steps to reach the top of the mountain, which is not good for some weak people.
"This time, it's actually just a hike to experience the fun of mountain climbing. From here, you can see Rio de Janeiro in a unique way.
Helen, you're complaining not because you couldn't keep up with us just now.
Your body is too weak. Eat more dates, papaya, bananas, and chocolate. Of course, the best thing is to improve your diet.
The reason why you are so weak is because you are picky about food, eat too many sweets, and have unhealthy nutrition.
Me, Mary, Charlotte, we are not out of breath, we are very relaxed. I think that even if Aunt Isabel comes, she will not be like you."
Now Tangning is not afraid of Helen at all.
After Mary arrived, Tangning had a good wife, and Charlotte no longer colluded with Helen. Facing her sister, Tangning had the upper hand before, but now she is overwhelming her.
"Ha! So you know a lot about medicine.
If I remember correctly, brother, you have never gone to college or even high school, and yet you still teach me medical knowledge.
I was born weak, what does it have to do with nutritional deficiencies?"
Helen, you don’t know that your brother only received private education, and he hasn’t finished private education, nor has he attended an elite university, but you don’t know why you know so much.
Although her brother knew a lot, Helen didn't believe that he even knew that much about medicine. She didn't know when her brother had studied medicine, so she regarded Tangning's persuasion as a lie.

"I can still lie to you. I am a naturally gifted person, naturally precocious, and highly capable of self-learning. Don't you know that?
It's just a little bit of medicine. Although I'm not proficient in it, I'm gifted, so I'm still a bit knowledgeable. You're weak because you've eaten too much sugar."
With a bachelor's degree in biology and a master's degree in health sciences, Tang Ning still knows nothing about medicine. Of course, she can't be said to be proficient, but with this amount of knowledge in this era, she can still be a half-hearted doctor.
"Charlotte, my physical condition was similar to yours when I was a child.
But she has been following me, eating reasonably like me, doing aerobics in the morning, and occasionally doing Tai Chi. Can Charlotte’s body be the same as yours now?
Charlotte, is it because of my existence that you are so healthy?"
"Well, well, it's just because of my brother."
Charlotte is extremely well-behaved and nods like a tadpole.
"Sister Helen, eating porridge with sugar added must be harmful to the body. My brother is right, and sister Helen always eats sugar secretly."
"Look, Helen knows about your bad habit of eating too much sugar."
In the past, you always added sugar to your porridge, and I don’t know who learned this from you. Eating too much sugar will not only cause tooth decay, but also make you gain weight, and cause other diseases, which is also harmful to the body."
"Lie! I'm neither fat nor have cavities. I just catch a cold occasionally."
Helen didn't realize she had cavities or gained weight. She was very confident in her figure and her teeth were extremely white.
"You just brush your teeth regularly. You don't gain weight because you eat less. You often catch colds because your diet is unreasonable."
Tangning didn't have any good solutions for her stubborn sister. He was usually very tight on time.
"Brazil is a kingdom of sugar, but you didn't lack sugar when you were a kid. Could it be that the candies I developed are so delicious?
You can't just use sugar anymore, can't you change some other fruits? Jujubes aren't sweet, and I don't know why you don't like eating them.
After you go back this time, your meals must be synchronized with mine. I will ask Charlotte and Mary to confiscate your candies and powdered sugar. From now on, they will control you not to eat too much sugar."
As an older brother, Tangning is too busy and has no time to take care of her, so she can only ask her girlfriend to take care of her sister.
"Mary, Charlotte, I will ask you to supervise her from now on. This is for her own good. You must not indulge Helen."
