Chapter 661 Send a Wonder
The city of Le Havre has a branch of the Chamber of Commerce, which can provide Frederick with intelligence support.
After the banquet was a dance party. After a long time of the dance, an intelligence officer from the Chamber of Commerce of Dawn came to Frederick's residence in a carriage.
"Ruler?" Frederick was a little interested when he heard the other party's code name. "The rudder is the most important part of the ship. It seems that you are very good."
This intelligence officer, code name "Ruler", is very young and seems to be a genius.
Frederick is the more talented people, and he intends to pull him into the intelligence system of the Principal of Wesson.
Who knew that the rudder said embarrassedly: "Sir, our code name is decided by drawing lots."
Frederick was speechless.
The rudder continues to report the latest information: "The latest information: Charles, Prince of the Kingdom of Angland, formed an army mainly equipped with foreign trade weapons from the Duchy of Wesson, with 5,000 officers and soldiers and 6,000 logistics personnel. He is currently gathering at the port, waiting for supplies, and is very likely to board the ship and sail, and the destination is unknown."
Frederick now understood why Armand reacted like that.
If the army of the Kingdom of Angles landed in Le Havre, it would be easy to conquer the battle between the inside and outside.
Then the Rhine Alliance army in Hanma City landed in Le Havre by ship, including the main force such as the Wesson Army's Northern Line Corps, so you can fight all the way to Barris City.
Frederick thought for a while and said, "You can strengthen the outside world to inquire about the news, and you can notify you quickly if there is any news."
The army of the Kingdom of Angland did not have much impact anywhere, and the reaction could not attack the Duchy of Wesson.
The rudder said he would report to the upper level, and then he wanted to speak but stopped.
Frederick asked him, "Is there anything else?"
The rudder whispered, "It's a private matter."
Frederick frowned and asked, "What's the matter?"
The rudder took out a necklace from his pocket and handed it to Frederick, and asked, "Sir, this is what I picked up on the carriage just now. How much do you think it's worth?"
Frederick took it and looked at it, and smiled when he handed it back, "This glass necklace looks worth dozens or hundreds of gold coins. In Wesenburg City, it's only three canned ducks. It's better to keep it to coax the girl than to sell it."
The rudder was a little disappointed, and I thought I had picked up the treasure just now.
Frederick didn't take this matter to heart. After sending the rudder away, he began to think about the relationship with the Kingdom of Gaul.
At present, the direction of the Principality of Wesson and the Rhine Alliance is in the east, which is not convenient for conflict with the Kingdom of Gaul in the west, and we must live in harmony for a long time.
In the bedroom, Frederick asked Mary: "Do you think we will give a gift to the Kingdom of Gaul?"
Maria knew his intention to give the gift, and after thinking about it, "If you want to make the Kingdom of Gaul happy, according to their personality, this gift needs to be unprecedented and particularly flaunting, so that you can show sincerity."
"It's the wonder you said."
"Do you know that because the friendship bonds give the highest share of the Kingdom of Gaul, their merchants are proud of it because it was an unprecedented loan."
This was the first time Frederick heard about it.
"Can you show off a wonder?" he began to think about it.
"First of all, this is too expensive."
Maria nodded. The palace's themed building costs nothing, but the decoration inside is simply a bottomless pit.
She said again, "The church is not good either." Maria is waiting to hold a wedding in the world's largest and highest church, and this glory will not be given to others.
"Is the statue?" Frederick thought about it and rejected it.
The people in Wesenburg City were angry and made a large number of bronze statues in a short time. Now they are famous attractions and spiritual symbols. Stamps and postcards with them are only sold next to the corresponding bronze statues.
If a particularly large bronze statue is given to the Kingdom of Gaul, it will reduce the attractiveness of the bronze statues related to the city of Wesenburg.
Maria thought for a while and said, "Would you like to build a simple tall and large building that can climb high and visit?"
Frederick thought for a while and said, "You can't build a lonely 'Emperor' for them. There is nothing else to do except exercise. It's better to climb a scaffolding."
He remembered the scaffolding outside the cathedral, which was particularly spectacular, but it seemed a bit wrong to just build a scaffolding there.
Maria had climbed the scaffolding several times by herself, and thought for a while and said, "What if it was made of steel?"
Frederick was silent.
Building a tall scaffolding tower with steel looks very imposing, but it is not a technical problem if it is simply piled up materials.
No mistakes, one poem, one post, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one read!
At present level of mechanics, like a pyramid, the bottom layer is large, the smaller the upward, and the stress is shared layer by layer through the structure.
The problem is that the cost is definitely not cheap, and you can't get four or five tons of gold without a single one.
But this time I am going to go to the southern continent to make gold. If I gain a lot of money and don’t give it to my friends, how do they know that they are very powerful?
Send them a wonder, which can deepen friendship, secondly, it can also give some intimidation, and thirdly, it can also promote themselves.
Frederick told Mary his thoughts.
Maria counted his fingers and said, "This is a problem. If you only give wonders to the Kingdom of Gaul, your Lady Meyer would definitely be unhappy."
"If you only give these two houses, the Kingdom of Sardinia, Constantinople, and Kush might have some ideas."
"If you send the Kingdom of Kush, then the church naturally needs to consider it."
"You have such a big business in the Kingdom of Angland, it's not reasonable to give me anything."
Frederick thought it was true. This diplomacy is sometimes like interactions between people. Not to mention a bowl of water, at least everyone needs to have a share.
He said to Maria, "During the time I went to the south for business trip, you will be the subject of researching this matter."
"When encountering technical problems, go to Teacher Psyke. She loves you very much, and it is more convenient for you to call her."
Maria covered her mouth and smiled, then looked like "If you don't give me good, I'll complain."
Frederick looks like a dead pig is not afraid of boiling water.
"By the way." Maria remembered something, "Have you offended Teacher Psyke before? I heard that she sometimes said to take revenge on you."
Frederick scratched his head and said, "I don't even have time to offer her, so how dare I offend her."
"Maybe it's someone else. Four out of ten boys in elementary school are called Frederick. Maybe she was bullied by children when she was giving lectures at some school."
Maria thought so. Frederick respects Psyche very much on weekdays, so there should be a child of the same name that is naughty.
Frederick brought Maria over, patted her on the back and said, "Go to bed early. We will go to Prince Darfranche's brother's house tomorrow. I don't know what good food will be."
