Frederick stayed awake for half the night, and his lover's plump body did not allow him to relax and think.
He was thinking of the happiness of the French 40 years ago.
In 1666, the French ambassador to Venice accepted secret orders from the country and found a way to bribe several Venetian craftsmen, thus bringing the secret of glass mirrors to Europe.
Later, although the mirror began to depreciate, it still maintained huge profits, and the French government also made a fortune. It is said that most of the money to build the Palace of Versailles came from here, and it is still generating revenue.
Augustus II struggled to make porcelain. Apart from his own liking, he still had a somewhat utilitarian mentality.
Now, although Betege claims that he can make porcelain like China's in three or four years, the Chinese's promise is only five days.
The powerful king thinks with his most powerful things and knows how to decide.
The German, who had just been kicked off the throne of Poland by the King of Sweden and returned to the throne from Peter the Great, did not sleep as well as Huang Xuan. At best, the latter was disturbed by some erotic images in his mind, while Frederick had to think over and over again about the pros and cons.
With the same opportunity, whether it is placed in France, England or further afield in Denmark or Russia, their kings will not be as sleepless at night as the lovely Augustus II. However, in the eyes of the Elector of Saxony, tens of thousands of talers was already a huge profit. He was just a larger prince in Germany, and his net worth was far from being comparable to that of the major powers in Europe.
Early the next morning, Augustus II hurriedly got up and let his maid help him put on his clothes. At the same time, he ordered his guards to urge the Chinese to get up.
The woman next to him pulled him sleepily and said, "Frederick, can you sleep a little longer?"
"Not today, I want to see a guy who doesn't know how to live or die."
"Isn't it okay to just kill him?"
Augustus said with a stiff neck: "The maid he brought is very powerful."
"Maids?" The woman giggled, her breasts resting on Augustus's body, and while moving her body, she said, "What can the maids do no matter how powerful they are? Or can I lend them to you?"
The two maids who dressed Augustus covered their mouths and laughed.
Frederick's face turned red and he couldn't say a word. If the woman hadn't threatened his life yesterday, he would probably have Huang Xuan tied up and then promise him some benefits after taking advantage...
Everyone has the same mentality, and travelers are used to negotiating after gaining an advantage. The difference lies in who really has the advantage.
…
Huang Xuan slept soundly, which was a very strange thing. Now, he has almost no force to support him, and he has offended the owner of the room, but he is more at ease than the owner of the room.
Perhaps, the sense of oppression brought by the Space-Time Administration will turn into a sense of security here. Chu Yining, who has no energy, seems to have the courage to do anything...
The servants didn't know what Frederick was thinking, so they only dared to call Huang Xuan softly in front of the door, still using not-so-pure German. They didn't wake Huang Xuan up, but they woke up Chu Yining.
Miss Chu waved people away, and stood in front of the bed. Seeing Huang Xuan sleeping, drooling, she couldn't help but kick his feet, then she took them back like a lady, and said: "Without energy, how can you sleep?" of?"
"Aren't we protected by you?" Huang Xuan squinted to avoid the sunlight and said, "If you can't protect me, then we have no hope of going back."
Miss Chu was stunned. She didn't expect Huang Xuan to be so confident about her. But then she thought about it. This man's physique seemed to be that of a second- and third-level mercenary. He was probably made from various immunity potions. He was relieved immediately. He didn't want to worry about it. Can not be done.
Huang Xuan chuckled, lifted the quilt and said, "Miss Chu, I'm used to sleeping naked at night."
Chu Yining walked out expressionlessly.
Huang Xuan actually doesn't sleep naked, but this sentence is so useful that he can't help but use it. He didn't know that this was just being used on Chu Yi Ning, replacing it with a little beauty from another plane. Maybe he wanted to see it.
Frederick ate breakfast slowly at his dining table, and politely asked Huang Xuan and Chu Yining to come together. Otherwise, the Germans are European countrymen, and they are ridiculed as barbarians by the British who are also countrymen. In the royal family that attaches great importance to etiquette, Frederick just started chewing on his own. If he was not prepared to treat Huang Xuan The two of them were just guests, so he invited them to sit down while eating.
Speaking of which, Huang Xuan had seen himself do such a thing before.
In fact, Huang Xuan must not want to know that the arrogant Germans during World War II are now much more advanced than the Middle Ages. At least they do not connect the sewers of the toilets to the restaurants. It is said that there was once an elector and his general. When they were discussing the military situation, the floor unfortunately collapsed and everyone in the living room was soaked in feces.
It’s hard to imagine how these monarchs and ministers could stand on a cesspit to discuss military matters without good ventilation and odor-blocking conditions. The most likely reason is that they took advantage of the human nose’s ability to be “assimilated.”
Huang Xuan was lucky. In 1709, although the Germans' rooms were still infested with flies and did not have perfect drainage systems, especially excrement disposal systems, they no longer hollowed out the bottom of their rooms to use as cesspits, because they simply did not There is no toilet prepared.
Surrounding the living room is a row of more than twenty guards with knives. They are probably the German version of Zhan Zhao. They are all tall and tall, staring at Huang Xuan's bowl of red sausage soup.
Chu Yining just glanced at the breakfast on the table, watching Huang Xuan slurping down the soup and waiting for him to speak with wide eyes.
Huang Xuan touched his mouth deliberately, and waited until Frederick had eaten to his heart's content before saying, "Mr. Augustus, shall we go to your mine now?"
Now he no longer talks about remuneration.
Frederick glanced at the few remaining vegetable leaves in the bowl with regret, fished them out with a fork, but without success, he stood up and said magnanimously: "Let's go."
The carriage at the door was also made according to the French luxury style. It was big enough for a rhinoceros to sleep sideways. Huang Xuan had no hope of bumping into Chu Yining. He just looked at the energy screen for himself. He had to learn and sell now. , teaching alchemists how to make porcelain.
Fortunately, Lorraine had entrusted Li Shenggang to find a professional yesterday to connect him on the phone seriously. Except for a slight delay in the sound, it had no major impact.
The great alchemist Betteger was originally studying porcelain in Berlin, but he ran out of money. Frederick the Great of Prussia recruited him. After working for a while, he failed to achieve results. He was afraid of being beheaded, so he fled to Under Mr. Frederick of Saxony, the name confusion throughout Europe lasted for a long time. It seems that historians have no choice but to use nicknames. The same goes for Frederick and the father of Frederick the Great, Frederick Lieutenant William I was known as the "Soldier King", and the earliest remembered Frederick I belonged to the "Red Beard" Frederick of the Holy Roman Empire. That was already 1,000 years ago. In addition, the Elector of Brandenburg had another Frederick I, who was the son of Frederick V of the Luxembourg family. In the family, he was Frederick I, just like Augustus I was his son in Saxony. When he went to Poland, he was called Augustus II. Also called Frederick I were the King of Denmark, the Duke of Austria, the Duke of Tuwabia... and there were quite a few other fifth and sixth generations left. Naturally, these were not ordinary nobles.
European historians are a miserable bunch!
Of course, Frederick the Great belonged exclusively to Frederick William II of Prussia. As a great emperor, he naturally had to have a big weapon. It was reasonable for Bettger to be afraid of him. He brought half of the researched Technology came to find the powerful king who loved porcelain the most, and was lucky enough to be protected.
Frederick was extremely impressed by Chu Yining's speed and strength last night, and continued to show his courtesy today. He didn't care much about the rudeness of the two people who broke into his palace late at night. Such things happened almost every day in Europe in the 18th century. occur.
If he had stayed at night for two more years, this Betegue would probably be able to fool the simplest hard porcelain, and then earn large boxes of silver coins. European monarchs are still relatively good at dealing with their subordinates. The subordinates mentioned here are of course free people and serfs. It's not included.
The carriage rumbled for more than two hours and arrived at a small town near Dresden. Augustus II understood the principle of confidentiality very well. The job-hopping of the Venetian glassmaker fully demonstrated the value of industrial espionage. , when the porcelain is successfully developed, he will move the factory to the farther town of Meissen. The Meissen brand was already the most famous porcelain brand in Europe in the 1st century.
Betegue was a tall and strong guy, and he greeted Augustus II and his party at the gate of the town with dissatisfaction. He had already developed techniques such as glaze firing, so he was quite dissatisfied with Huang Xuan's arrival, thinking that he would deprive himself of the title of the first porcelain maker - in the eyes of Europe at that time, Chinese porcelain makers could not be counted among them. .
Augustus II supported Huang Xuan and said: "This Chinese is the imperial master of China, Kangxi's."
During this period, the porcelain most commonly seen by Europeans was the porcelain of the Kangxi Dynasty. The porcelain Augustus exchanged for 600 cavalry was also the porcelain of the Kangxi Dynasty. This is obviously different from the porcelain of the Song Dynasty official kiln in China. -The reason is also very simple. When porcelain is sent from Quanzhou to Europe, the price increases by about 20,000 to 30,000 times. If the price of official kiln porcelain increases by 20,000 to 30,000 times, how can Europeans buy it? They also couldn't understand why official kiln porcelain was thousands of times more expensive than Kangxi porcelain.
Perhaps it was because there were too many royal families in Europe. Berteg raised his neck and said, "I am also the royal porcelain master of Saxony."
Huang Xuan smiled. (To be continued. If you want to know what happened, please log in to .qidian. There are more chapters. Support the author and genuine reading!) (To be continued)
