Courage cannot be eaten. This group of young British aristocrats paid the price for their contempt. The direct consequence is that the choices of aristocratic ladies have been greatly reduced.

Gao Bin's conditions were originally above average, and now he has become one of the best. Except for the princess who may be worried about family issues and is still hesitating, the other girls don't care about blood and family. As long as they can embrace this rich son-in-law, their future will be

There is hope.

As a result, all kinds of letters coming to Downton as guests came like pieces of paper.

But Gao Bin's purpose is very clear. In this life, he will not marry anyone who is not a princess.

What kind of woman has he never married? Only a serious princess has never been married, and he has to make a difference in his life.

Less than a month after Robert returned home, he took Cora and Bates and set off for London.

News has come from the royal family that his position as marquis is almost certain.

In this way, if Gao Bin can inherit the title, he will start as a marquis, and the duke is in sight.

However, there are many examples of people who can inherit a title before dying after a lifetime, so Gao Bin is not looking forward to it too much. Marrying the princess home is the first priority.

This time Robert went to London, and Gao Bin asked him to help bring some gifts to the princess, including desserts and handwritten love letters.

In this era where vx cannot be sent, love letters are definitely a powerful tool for picking up girls.

Before the princess replied, Gao Bin began to integrate his resources and prepare for a big game.

He asked his military colleagues to help find someone, who should be a captain in the Royal Naval Air Service named Walter Owen Bentley.

With a clear title and name, it is not difficult to find someone.

In fact, the Military Invention Award Committee is also under the influence of Gao Bin.

Previously, in recognition of Mr. Bentley's contribution during the war, the Invention Award Committee awarded him a special award of 8,500 pounds.

During the war, Mr. Bentley built a fighter engine from aluminum pistons that was more powerful and reliable than previous versions, replacing older engines that were prone to failure due to overheating in combat.

The first Bentley rotary engine BR.1 made the Sopwith Camel the most successful British fighter in World War I.

Therefore, with little effort, Gao Bin quickly contacted this person and invited him to come to Downton as a guest.

Walter Bentley was very surprised why a lieutenant colonel from the Logistics Department invited him to his home.

After much hesitation, I decided to come and take a look. Connections are very important. The other party is the eldest son of an earl with real power. You should come here for both business and private purposes.

In this way, Walter Bentley embarked on a journey that would change his life.

When he entered Downton Abbey, Carson, who was entrusted by Gao Bin, showed the enthusiasm from Downton to this man who was about to turn 30.

Seeing the servants of Downton lining up at the gate, Walter Bentley was flattered.

"Excuse me, where is Lieutenant Colonel Crowley?"

Carson smiled and nodded:

"The young master is inspecting the factory and will be back soon. You go to the study and sit for a while. It has been a hard journey. I have prepared refreshments for you. You can enjoy it slowly."

The Walter Bentley family is considered a high-producing family, but it is not inferior to the real aristocrats. At least their family cannot afford to support more than 30 servants.

A study room with an area of ​​more than 100 square meters is enough to make him look sideways.

Drinking the sweet black tea and eating the sweet but not greasy and refreshing matcha cake, Walter Irving's blood was boiling. He also wanted to live such a life.

Looking at the upright manservant waiting at the door of the study, Walter Irving only felt that the life of aristocrats was too luxurious, but this was enjoyment.

After waiting for about a quarter of an hour, the study door was pushed open:

"Let me see, where is the great Mr. Walter Bentley?"

Upon hearing this title, Walter Bentley was flattered. He quickly stood up and wiped the cake crumbs from the corner of his mouth. He looked slightly panicked, but he quickly calmed down.

"Lieutenant Colonel, thank you for your invitation."

Carson reminder:

"In Downton, you should call him Master."

Embarrassed, Walter Bentley was ashamed of his impoliteness.

"I'm sorry, I don't know, Master."

"It's okay, we are all our own people, no need to be polite, just sit down."

Gao Bin's kind smile made Walter Bentley relax a lot:

"Thank you, thank you for your invitation. This is the first time I have seen such a magnificent manor. It is so beautiful here."

"Haha, if you like, come here often. Did Carson take you to visit the garden at the back? It's even more beautiful there."

"Master, I haven't had time yet. After you finish talking to Mr. Bingley, I will personally take him to visit the manor." Carson apologized.

"No, no, no, how dare you." Walter Bentley was at a loss.

"Haha, friends who come here as guests will be invited to visit the manor. Don't be nervous. Just sit down and let's chat casually."

Glancing at the handicaps on the table, Gao Bin waved his hand:

"Tea is boring, let's drink whiskey. What do you think, Mr. Bentley?"

"You can call me Owen, that's my middle name."

"Okay Owen, would you like a drink?"

"Of course, if it's not troublesome."

Carson went to pour the wine, and Gao Bin randomly found a topic:

"Your inventions in the military are so great that they directly affect the performance of a generation of fighter planes."

"This is what I should do."

"I wonder if you have ever thought about a question: If this engine is transplanted to four wheels, will it produce a different speed?"

Just by saying this, Walter Bentley felt that his time was not in vain.

"To tell you the truth, I do have this plan. In fact, after receiving the invention award, I plan to set up my own car company and develop a car of my own!"

Gao Bin smiled happily and was waiting for this sentence:

"That's great. To be honest, I also have plans to set up a car company, but I lack talents in this area."

Walter Bentley finally understood Gao Bin's intention of calling him here, but it was consistent with his appeal and he did not resist it.

"Really? What do you mean?"

"Yes, Owen, as you thought, I want to cooperate with you. How about using your last name Bentley as the brand of this car?"

Walter Bentley was not a pedantic genius, he understood the world:

"No, I think the name Crowley sounds more grand and aristocratic."

Gao Bin raised his hand:

"How about calling it Bentley Motors, a brand owned by Crowley Automotive Industry Group?"

"I agree."

"Haha, I didn't expect to reach an agreement so quickly. I really should have a drink. Carson, where is our wine?"

"Here you go, Master." Carson brought the wine with a tray in one hand.

Gao Bin poured two glasses himself and handed one of them to Bentley.

"Come on, Owen, I wish our business success. I hope that one day, Bentley cars will be on every road on earth."

"That must be a wonderful sight, I'm looking forward to it very much."

Afterwards, the two communicated on the issue of share distribution and the direction of brand development.

The two have coincident ideas. Bentley serves as the brand CEO and is responsible for all research and development of Bentley cars, while Gao Bin is responsible for setting up a sales team to sell Bentley cars.

As for the positioning of this car, Gao Bin gave two keywords: nobility; speed!

"I hope Bentley has an aristocratic temperament. On this basis, the pursuit of speed will never have an upper limit. To ensure that luxury and passion coexist, this is my only requirement for this brand."

And Bentley’s answer is also very capable:

"As you wish, my young master, I will install a fighter jet engine on the Bentley and let it fly close to the ground."

Speaking of which, Gao Bin found a notebook and drew a logo with a pen.

A capital letter B with a pair of angel wings outside the circle.

"What do you think of this logo?"

"Perfect, young master, I didn't expect you to have such a talent."

"I hope that the company will be set up in Downton and the future factory will be set up here. This is my return to the local residents."

"I have no objection. Anyway, I am alone and can go anywhere."

"Well, due to wartime logistics and transportation, Downton has a complete railway network, from which it can lead to any large port in the UK."

As for the issue of shares, neither of them was too obsessed with their shares, and finally agreed that Crowley Automotive Industries, which is wholly owned by Gao Bin, would account for 90% of Bentley's shares and be responsible for providing R&D funds and space.

Walter Bentley alone owns 10%, serves as CEO, and is responsible for automobile research and development.
