Although it is pleasant to watch the maid Nia cleaning, it is not good to watch too much. It will make his heart beat faster and his breathing speed up, which makes him feel like having a nosebleed.
Sometimes I wonder, since nylon was not invented in this era, why does it have such great charm that it makes me retreat?
Forget it, don’t think about it so much, let’s go to another place to calm down.
Carlo, who was forced to leave his room, planned to play chess with his brother.
I forgot to mention one more thing, Carlo's brother Prince Vittorio is two years younger than him and is currently in a state of rebellion. Carlo, as a person who has been there, naturally understands this very well. Regarding the second one, Vittorio, who is gradually spreading his aura
Oh, Carlo is so easy to get.
Sure enough, Carlo's arrival was warmly welcomed by his younger brother.
"Carlo, it's you."
Vittorio, whose breath of greenery could not be concealed, greeted his brother cordially. However, his fighting eyes did not reveal much of family affection. This is not to blame Vittorio, who else took away his pocket money one after another
The money is the same. Although he took it out himself, how could he do it willingly?
Yes, Carlo even defrauded his younger brother of his pocket money. But this is not his fault. His younger brother Vittorio was a little rich man. At that time, he was fascinated by money and couldn't help but transfer it to himself.
Although he regretted it afterwards, he couldn't help but go there several times later.
In fact, this can't be entirely his fault. Vittorio's monthly pocket money is 20,000 lire. In addition, he currently uses it sparingly, so he has naturally accumulated a lot of money. Carlo happened to have a plan to spend money.
Naturally, he set his sights on his cute brother.
"Vittorio, did you miss me?"
Carlo went up and killed him with a slap on the head, completely ignoring the anger in Victor's eyes.
"You are not allowed to touch my head again."
"Okay, I won't touch it anymore."
Looking at Vittorio who was about to explode, Carlo put down his hand with a victorious smile, which naturally caused Vittorio's anger level to rise sharply.
Once this person gets angry, his rationality plummets, and taking advantage of this opportunity, Carlo naturally strikes while the iron is hot.
"How about we play a game with a chance of winning something?"
"Come just come."
Faced with Carlo's invitation to fight, Vittorio agreed without hesitation.
After a while, Carlo left with a victorious smile, leaving only his brother's frustrated expression.
Carlo put the trophies he won back into his small vault and looked at the neatly stacked banknotes. Carlo was very satisfied. Now the first fund required for the plan is enough. As long as the results are produced, people will see them.
Once you get the benefits, follow-up funds will be easy to handle.
Today is really a perfect day. With such a good mood, Carlo waited until the arrival of a piece of news, which immediately made his mood not perfect.
"You said Tesla is unwilling to come to Italy?"
Seeing Carlo's unbelieving expression, Domingo, the newly appointed confidant, could only bite the bullet and nod.
It's hard to do now.
Yes, this news disrupted Carlo's plan. Tesla was a key figure in his plan. For the inventor of alternating current, Carlo never thought that he would have a reason to refuse.
Yes, what Carlo wants to start is electrification, and Tesla is its core figure. The second industrial revolution is very important to Italy, and it is also one of the few opportunities for Italy to overtake in corners.
And Domingo actually brought him such news, and he threw the water glass in his hand at him on the spot. It was Carlo's good self-cultivation.
Seeing Carlo's expression of wanting to eat someone, Domingo felt a little regretful. This was not because he regretted the next task, but because he regretted not kneeling down to beg Mr. Tesla. He never expected that the other party would get what he wanted.
The prince values this much. And the previous experience did not find anything unique about this person that made the prince value him so much.
But now the regret medicine is no longer available, so I can only wait for His Highness's punishment.
Looking at Domingo who looked like a dead father, Carlock controlled his impulse, calmed down and asked.
"Then tell me how this Tesla rejected you."
Carlo's mind was now filled with questions about why Tesla would say no, so he wanted to know why.
"Your Highness, Mr. Tesla couldn't believe it when he heard that His Highness invited him to come to Italy to serve as the director of the Electric Power Research Institute. He said that he was not knowledgeable enough to take on such an important task, so he planned to study for a while before coming back.
"
After hearing Domingo's explanation, Carlo didn't know what to say.
But since Tesla has now refused, he needs new candidates. But this thing is not like cabbage, he can choose as he likes. Although Carlo knows about alternating current, alternating current is just a term here, and he does not have it.
actual manufacturing capacity.
And he didn't know that he would travel through time, and he didn't prepare any information.
So now that he is blind, what should he do with the electric power research institute he prepared?
Thinking of this, the money I took from my brother today is no longer good. What should I do next?
Carlo, who was full of worries, sent the frustrated Domingo away, but he thought for an entire afternoon and still couldn't figure it out. Even the little maid didn't smell good. With this mood, he waited until dinner came.
In Christian teachings, the dinner is sacred, and Jesus ascended to heaven after eating the Last Supper. Therefore, Europe attaches great importance to the dinner, and the Italian royal family is no exception.
When dinner came, the family sat neatly at the dining table. The servants served a sumptuous dinner, and his father, Umberto I, sat in the main seat. However, it could be seen from his slightly tired eyes that he had been very tired recently.
light.
There is no way, after all, he has only been on the throne for a year, and there are many government affairs that need to be handled by him. It is normal for him to be a little confused at the beginning.
Sitting next to him was his mother, Queen Margarita. The passion between the two of them had been tempered by their many years of life. It was impossible to treat each other as if they were guests, but it did not reach the point where they were inseparable.
Below are the two princes Carlo and Vittorio. Although Carlo was very upset about being rejected by Tesla, how could he show it at this time? Of course he looked very happy.
However, compared with Carlo, Vittorio was far behind. He stared at Carlo with an expression of bitterness and hatred. Facing his brother who couldn't cultivate enough, Carlo couldn't help but think again.
Use your eyes to tease someone, just to vent your depressed mood today.
"What are you looking at me for?"
"Give me the money!"
"Why should you pay back what you won based on your own ability?"
"You still haven't paid it back?"
"Don't even think about it."
"Wait for me!"
Bypassing the two princes who were eye-to-eye contact, next came the two younger sisters Princess Yolanda and Princess Mafalda. However, compared to the two princes who were "communicating cordially", they were much simpler and were sitting quietly.
Sit in the chair with your eyes wide open and wait for your meal.
Taking advantage of the time before dinner, Umberto, a father, said, "I'm going to Sicily for an inspection next. Carlo, Vittorio, you must listen to your mother and don't cause trouble."
Obviously, the eye contact between the two made his father notice.
"Umberto, are you going to Sicily for an inspection?"
Before the two of them could answer, Queen Margarita, the wife, spoke.
"Yes, this is a common thought between the Prime Minister and I. At present, I have never been to Sicily and Sardinia in the whole country. I cannot favor one over the other."
Facing his wife's inquiry, his father Umberto sounded a little apologetic. Over the past year, he had spent too much time on military and political affairs, and in order to better understand the actual situation in various places, he visited everywhere and stayed.
There is much less time for family.
"Father, how long do you need to inspect this time?"
At this time, his brother Vittorio couldn't help but interrupt and asked.
"It will probably take about ten days."
Father Umberto's words gave Vittorio a different look in his eyes.
"Vittorio, don't hear anything bad about you when I come back."
After his father saw the signs on the spot, he immediately gave a warning and his thoughts disappeared.
Seeing his brother being scolded, Carlo hurriedly stepped forward and added, "Father, please don't worry, I will watch over my brother."
"Yeah, very good, Carlo."
Carlo's words successfully attracted his father's attention.
But this made Vittorio's flames rise again, for which he secretly glared at Carlo.
Of course Carlo, who was in a better mood and didn't have the knowledge of a little kid, wouldn't take this to heart.
This is where the life-filled dinner begins.
The next day, my father left Rome for Sicily under the protection of the captain of the guard, Felicius.
