Greece to roman road

Seeing Crown Princess Sophie who suddenly joined the chat, Nobel sighed and replied: "I have this plan in the near future."

"I'm tired of it"

"The greatest achievement of my life is gunpowder. As you can see, I also made a fortune from the production of gunpowder."

"I don't have much time left, and I don't have any heirs. These bloody wealth make me feel more and more guilty."

Having said this, Nobel looked at Constantine and said, "So, Your Highness, don't take my share of the credit for your victory, that way I might be happier."

Obviously, Nobel felt moral pressure because his invention, dynamite, was widely used in wars and killed tens of thousands of his kind.

Especially in France, French public opinion misunderstood Nobel and his brother Ludwig. When his brother Ludwig died, he actually published in the newspaper "the invention of a war weapon (dynamite). This stuff brought a lot of death and destruction,” read the scathing obituary.

This greatly touched and shocked Nobel.

Nobel himself was not married, had no heirs, and had no direct heirs to his wealth. All these factors made Nobel think about quitting.

"As Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess said, I plan to use most of my property, approximately US$9.2 million, to establish a prize to inspire those who have made outstanding contributions to science."

"Maybe this can save me?" Nobel sighed.

After that, he looked at Sophie and joked: "If this award is successfully established, I plan to personally award you the title of "The Greatest Woman in the World""

Nobel's recent decision to donate most of his fortune to establish the prize was also inspired by the Royal Hellenic Educational Foundation.

Nobel had been in Greece for a few years, and his impression of Greece was ordinary, but there was only one thing about Greece that truly shocked him - the Royal Greek Educational Foundation spent huge sums of money every year to fund tens of thousands of students, a great act of completing primary education.

The wide scope of its funding, the large number of recipients, and the amount of money spent every year made Nobel sincerely admire the president of the foundation, Crown Princess Sophie.

It can be said that, looking at human history, such kind deeds to benefit the people are very few.

Since Sophie took over the management of the Royal Education Foundation and became the president of the foundation, she has loved this work from the bottom of her heart - sponsoring thousands of children, especially children from poor families, to come to schools to receive education.

So far, the number of students in Greece who have received sponsorship from the foundation and completed preliminary studies has exceeded 180,000, and there are still 120,000 students who are receiving primary education in primary schools.

The sense of self-satisfaction and achievement brought by this job allows Crown Princess Sophie to always devote herself to the work of the foundation with great energy even if she does not receive wages (Sophie, there is no salary for working at the foundation) .

Due to her years of education, Sophie had an outstanding reputation in Greek society, and she had a tendency to surpass Constantine, even though he personally led the army to defeat the army of his old enemy Ottoman on the battlefield.

In Greek newspapers, there are many words of praise for Crown Princess Sophie, such as "a woman like the Virgin Mary" and "the light of wisdom".

What made Constantine even more disgusted was that there were newspaper comments that the Greek army led by Crown Prince Constantine was able to defeat the Ottomans on the battlefield because of Crown Princess Sophie.

Obviously, this statement is influenced by Greek folktales: Greek folklore legends-when a Greek king named Constantine married a queen named Sophie, he would rule the city again. His namesake city (referring to Constantinople).

(Sophy means "wisdom" and "sage" in Greek)

The main goal of the foundation work that Sophie is engaged in is to help students complete their studies, so that the Greeks will associate Sophie with the meaning of sophy in Greek.

Nobel's determination to use his own property to establish prizes was partly inspired by the foundation's actions.

Nobel himself also had great respect for Crown Princess Sophie, who was engaged in education.

After seeing the charitable deeds of the foundation, Nobel believed that it would be very meaningful to use his "bloody" wealth to do some causes that benefit the entire human race.

Although his wealth pales in comparison to that of the foundation, it can also play a unique role in rewarding and helping the brightest minds in human society.

Since he has been engaged in education and culture for a long time, Nobel's plan naturally fell into Sophie's ears.

After hearing the affirmative answer from Nobel, Sophie said happily: "Mr. Nobel, this is really a generous act."

"If you were determined to do that, could the award be given in Greece?"

"I think there is no more suitable place for such an award than Greece, which is known as the "source of Western civilization."

Constantine was stunned when he heard, Nobel, Nobel Prize, located in Greece?

Isn’t this a cross-section of Sweden’s Hu?

After stroking it, and looking at Nobel who was deep in thought next to him, Constantine thought about it and felt that it was not impossible.

After Crown Princess Sophie became the president of the foundation, she was influenced by Ikios, one of the executive members of the foundation and the president of the University of Athens, and she also regarded the great goal of reviving the status of the center of Greek culture as one of her work goals. .

When Sophie heard the news that Nobel had set up awards to reward scientific workers, she became interested.

If the awards can be awarded in Greece, think about it. Every year, the award-winning scientists and scholars gather in Athens, Greece, during the awards ceremony. This will be of great benefit to Greece's restoration of its status as a cultural center.

Maybe Greece can poach some less-regarded scientists and hire them to work in Greek universities to enrich Greece's scientific and technical faculty.

"Yes, Mr. Nobel, if you agree to set the award location in Greece, our foundation will fully help you to get the establishment and evaluation of the awards back on track as soon as possible," Constantine also took the opportunity to say.

Although the Nobel family is originally from Sweden, the Nobel family made its fortune in Russia, and most of the family members currently live in Russia.

Nobel's own experience was even more complicated.

Nobel moved to Russia with his family when he was nine years old. He has been in the United States, Germany, the United Kingdom, France, and now Greece.

I probably don’t have particularly deep feelings for my hometown.

Therefore, it does seem feasible to set the award in Greece.

"If you can agree, Mr. Nobel, the Royal Educational Foundation can provide part of the funds and use it together with your wealth as a bonus." Sophie looked at Nobel who was thinking and continued.

Nobel considered the two people's suggestions. If the award is set in Greece, there is no doubt that with the help of these two people, whether it is the work of lawyers, the publicity of the award, or even legal permission, the progress will be very fast.

There is no need to worry about political matters at all.

In this way, I, who is already 63 years old and has a serious decline in energy, can indeed save worry and effort.
