"Your Majesty, you are overrated! This is only a preliminary design, and it is far from your regulations!"

A shy smile appeared on the corner of old Mauser's mouth, and he humbly responded to Jerome Bonaparte.

"By the way! If I equip this rifle into the army in advance, can the improved version be directly carried out on this rifle!" Jerome Bonaparte then asked old Mauser.

After being silent for a while, old Mauser replied tactfully to Jerome Bonaparte: "Your Majesty, I'm not good at answering this! For any firearm, there is still some gap between the preliminary design and the final product!

If the difference is not too big, it is very easy to improve!

If the difference is large, then there may be some difficulties in improving it! "

Old Mauser's words reminded Jerome Bonaparte of the Chassepo rifle in history. It was born at the wrong time and only went through a few wars before it was directly thrown into the cold palace.

Although the later Grass rifles were modified on the basis of the Xia Saibo rifles, the cost of improvement was not low at all.

However, the performance is still not as good as the Mauser rifles of the period.

"Then... just wait!" Jerome Bonaparte gave up the idea of ​​large-scale equipment, and then asked the old Mauser rifle if there was a possibility of small-scale mass production.

Old Mauser told Jerome Bonaparte that as long as the factories in the industrial park are willing to cooperate, small-scale mass production is not a problem at all.

"I will let the factories in the park cooperate with you as much as possible!" Jerome Bonaparte said to old Mauser, "You only need to manufacture more than 1,000 rifles for the first batch!"

Jerome Bonaparte is going to use these more than a thousand rifles to arm an expedition, and then infiltrate West and Central Africa in the name of scientific investigation.

This can not only meet the performance test of new weapons, but also can justifiably colonize Central and West Africa.

He believed that with breech guns and quinine, France would be able to conquer the lands of Central and West Africa like history.

"Yes! Your Majesty!" Old Mauser nodded and said to Jerome Bonaparte.

"Also! Rifles and metal fixed-loading ammunition must not be slack in the slightest. I will let Basilio continue to increase investment for you!" Jerome Bonaparte once again warned, and then added In a sentence: "And in view of your performance this time, I will award you the fourth-class Glory Legion Medal (equivalent to being a knight), I hope you can make persistent efforts!"

Old Mauser, who heard that he was canonized as a member of the nobility, immediately smiled. He didn't expect that he would become a member of the nobility so quickly.

Although the French knighthood is not too precious, it is still a symbol of honor.

As long as he can make persistent efforts, there is no possibility that he will be canonized as a baron.

Subsequently, Jerome Bonaparte and old Mauser returned to the firearms manufacturing company.

On the way back, Jerome Bonaparte asked old Mauser if he would give him the rifle numbered 0001.

Old Mauser said very politely that if Jerome Bonaparte likes it, he can take this rifle away.

"Then I'll accept it!" Jerome Bonaparte said unceremoniously to old Mauser, and then asked old Mauser the progress of his work on the multi-barrel cannon.

"During this time, Mr. Xia Saibo has been following me in designing a rifle, so the multi-barrel cannon is still being designed!" Old Mauser hurriedly smoothed out Xia Saibo's way.

"No wonder!" Jerome Bonaparte murmured in a low voice. He said why there was rubber on Mauser's rear-mounted gun, it turned out to be Xia Saipo's idea!

"Your Majesty, do you want me to call him here!" Old Mauser asked Jerome Bonaparte.

"There's no need for that!" Jerome Bonaparte shook his head and rejected old Mauser's suggestion, then took out his pocket watch and glanced at the time.

It was already around 11:30 noon, and before he knew it, two and a half hours had passed since he got off the train.

"Wallevs, Vernia, we should go!" Jerome Bonaparte hurriedly greeted Wallevsky and Vernia to leave.

If I don't leave, I'm afraid I will go back to accept Augusta's "scolding".

"Your Majesty, I will send you off!" Old Mauser sent Jerome Bonaparte to the crossroads.

The trio of Jerome Bonaparte went to Basilio's office.

Basilio, who had been waiting in the office for a long time, immediately went to meet Jerome Bonaparte in person after receiving the news of Jerome Bonaparte's arrival.

Jerome Bonaparte quickly explained the task to Basilio: "1. Immediately open a dye company in the park and grant 150,000 francs plus 17% of the shares to the William Parkin Institute of the Umbrella Institute! Yes! Now, you have to draw up a patent contract, which is not a single patent, but all the patents of William Parkin in the next 30 years. 2. Give 150,000 francs to the Umbrella Research Institute and the Old Mauser Firearms Company respectively The reward... do you understand?"

"Yes! Your Majesty! I will execute it immediately!" Basilio hurriedly replied to Jerome Bonaparte, "By the way, Your Majesty, that William Parkin..."

"William Parkin has created a synthetic purple dye in the laboratory that works on silk," said Jérôme Bonaparte to Basilio.

Basilio instantly smelled the scent of money, "If this dye is put on the market, it will definitely sell!"

"That's right!" Jerome Bonaparte nodded. "After the signing is completed, you can go to Britain and Germany to apply for a patent! If the application is late, I am afraid that something will change."

The change in Jerome Bonaparte's mouth refers to the fact that during this time, someone also developed the same dye.

After all, there are too many **** things on the European continent for patents.

As far as the current steelmaking law is concerned, NORINCO is arguing with William Kelly in Britain over this issue.

William. Kelly has always demanded that the new steel-making method should be stopped from profiting in Britain on the grounds that the steel-making method was his first.

Although Jérôme Bonaparte William Kelly was just someone who was pushed out by some steel giants in Britain to fight in the ring, he could not directly strangle him through official force.

Guys like William Kelly, while they can't get you in the way, will keep boring you like flies.

Jerome Bonaparte doesn't want too many guys like William Kelly.

"Your Majesty, does the United States of America still need to apply for a patent!" Basilio asked again.

"Apply! Why don't you apply!" Jerome Bonaparte said to Basilio through gritted teeth: "Tell us the lawyers in the United States of America, if anyone dares to steal technology without the permission of the company! We don't care who it is. , no matter how small the scale, one will sue the other! Until they go bankrupt!"

"Your Majesty, if we sue company by company, I am afraid that all our interests in the United States of America will be invested in a long lawsuit!

' Basilio reminded Jerome Bonaparte.

As relying on piracy to start the United States of America, there are still all kinds of small factories left at this time. They have no fear of patent law and carry out piracy work recklessly.

It's not an easy task to knock all these guys down!

"It's worth the investment!" Jerome Bonaparte said unswervingly, "We can only make more profits if we are unswervingly clear about piracy!"

Basilio finally followed Jerome Bonaparte's advice.

"Okay, that's all I have to say!" Jerome Bonaparte shrugged and said to Basilio: "Now you can find a car and take me back!

"

Basilio quickly arranged a carriage for Jerome Bonaparte, not only that, but he also equipped Jerome Bonaparte with several veterans who were responsible for escorting him back.

"Forget it!" Jerome Bonaparte shook his head and said to Basilio, "If you send too many people, anyone with a discerning eye will see that there is a heavyweight in the carriage. You are not increasing my danger in disguise!"

"I was negligent!" Basilio hurriedly apologized to Jerome Bonaparte and dismissed the soldiers who had escorted Jerome Bonaparte back.

In this way, Jerome Bonaparte and Virnia took a carriage back to the Tuinlery Palace, while Wallevsky returned to the Orsay Pier in another carriage.

When Jerome Bonaparte's carriage arrived in the garden of the Tuinlely Palace, the patrolling guards who were in charge of guarding the garden immediately blocked the carriage's way forward.

"Please show your invitation!"

"I don't have an invitation letter!"

"I'm sorry! You can't go in!"

Jérôme Bonaparte, who was sitting in the carriage, heard the conversation between the driver and the patrolling guards. He opened the curtains, put his head close to the windowsill, and said half-jokingly, "Can I get in with this image?"

The guards immediately looked towards the carriage when they heard the sound, and when they saw Jerome Bonaparte's face, their expressions changed greatly, and then they saluted Jerome Bonaparte in the carriage, "Your Majesty!"

"Okay! Get out of the way!" Jerome Bonaparte in the carriage waved his hand to the patrolling guards.

The patrolling guards hurriedly made way for the carriage, and the carriage arrived at the gate of the Tuinlery Palace.

Jerome Bonaparte pushed open the car door and went straight into the courtyard of the Duinlery Palace. On the first floor, Mocart, who was instructing the servants of the Duinlery Palace, saw Jerome Bonaparte, his face immediately showed A happy smile: "Your Majesty!"

"Mocar, where is my lovely son Frederick now? Take him there!" Jerome Bonaparte asked Mocar straight to the point.

"plz follow me!"
