I Am the Crown Prince in France

My sister’s vitality is so tenacious! Joseph was so impressed that he was suffering from anemia and had to have blood transfusions twice a month, but he could still live until now...

Therese asked in confusion: "Why is this? What did Mr. Baptiste do wrong?"

"He didn't do anything right..."

Joseph suddenly remembered the news that Dr. Lamarck had sent two days ago, saying that tocopherol had been successfully extracted, and he couldn't help but feel moved.

He originally planned to use vitamin E, which is tocopherol, to make cosmetics. However, this thing seems to have the effect of treating pathological anemia, and it can also improve immunity.

Just right for Thérèse.

Coupled with some iron supplements, her anemia should be greatly improved.

As for iron supplementation, you can ask Dr. Lamarck to help synthesize some ferrous sulfate.

This thing is very simple to make by heating iron and dilute sulfuric acid together, then precipitating and filtering.

He warned Thérèse seriously:

"Absolutely don't bleed in the future. It will seriously damage your health. In addition, I have made a medicine that should help alleviate your condition. I will have it delivered to you tomorrow."

"Really? Do you really have this potion?" Therese looked surprised.

In fact, she no longer wanted to bleed. No girl wants to have a few scars on her arms.

Joseph nodded.

"Oh, dear Joseph, you are such a genius!"

As Thérèse was speaking, she suddenly felt dizzy. She hurriedly said goodbye to everyone, left the ball hall with the help of the maid, and went back to rest.

Joseph was thinking about the dosage of vitamin E and ferrous sulfate for his sister, and suddenly thought, why not sell these things as health care products in Paris Angel's store?

Vitamin E also has the effect of anti-aging and regulating women’s menstrual periods. Together with ferrous sulfate to replenish blood, it is a perfect “friend of women”!

This stuff is sure to drive ladies crazy.

He thought of a certain famous oral liquid in later generations, with the light of River dancing in his eyes, and said to himself:

"Let's call it 'Guifeile Oral Liquid'!"

The aristocratic ladies who were all around were gearing up and could no longer hold themselves back. Seeing that Her Royal Highness the Princess had finally left, they immediately gathered around the Crown Prince, either posing eagerly or looking shyly, trying their best to attract his attention.

Joseph had a headache and was about to ask Perna for help when he saw a lady in her thirties coming over with wine and snacks.

He picked up a glass of wine. The noble lady took advantage of the situation and bowed to him, smiling and saying:

"Your Highness, may I have a few minutes of your time?"

On the side, Eman quickly reminded in a low voice:

"Your Highness, this is Mrs. Eric."

Joseph then realized that she was not a maid, so he bowed to her and signaled:

"What do you want?"

The surrounding Yingying Yanyans saw that the "old aunt" reacted so quickly and got there first, and they all glared at her.

Mrs. Eric turned a blind eye and said to Joseph:

"Your Highness, you know that my husband had a business partner during his lifetime. He admired you very much."

Mrs. Eric handed an envelope to Joseph:

"This is a bit presumptuous. He wants to talk to you about something. Oh, of course, it is up to you to decide whether to see him. However, he also said that you will not regret meeting him."

Joseph opened the envelope and saw a theater ticket inside.

Mrs. Eric leaned forward and whispered:

"Your Highness, this is given to you by Mr. Hartley, the British Ambassador."

British ambassador? Joseph narrowed his eyes slightly, what is he looking for me for?

He suddenly remembered the "Treaty of Eden" between Britain and France mentioned by Dupont before, and thought to himself: No matter what the British want to do, it would be good to contact them and get a feel for it.

So he raised the envelope in his hand to Mrs. Eric and said with a smile:

"Please tell him that I will be there."

After finally staying up until the ball was over, Joseph returned to the palace tiredly and saw the king's attendants waiting at the door of his palace.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince," the king's attendant bowed, "His Majesty the King invited you to his workshop and said he had a surprise for you."

Joseph immediately followed him to the royal workshop. Before he could salute Louis XVI before entering, he was happily dragged to an iron-black machine by the latter.

Joseph could tell it was a printing press.

Louis XVI motioned to the panel maker next to him. The craftsman nodded immediately, fixed the painted slate in the middle of the printing press, took a few pieces of paper and placed them on the iron frame at the top, then brushed on the ink, pulled the long handle hard, and compacted it.

When the handle is lifted, the piece of paper has turned into a landscape painting of the Palace of Versailles.

The craftsman had no intention of stopping. He took away the printed painting and pulled the handle again, and another painting appeared.

In this way, he printed 5 pages in a row before stopping to apply ink and add paper. The whole process only took a little more than a minute!

Louis XVI looked at Joseph proudly, as if waiting for his storm of praise.

"Dear father, you completed the transformation of the lithographic printing press so quickly?" Joseph said in surprise, "It only took three days..."

The craftsman next to him noticed that the crown prince did not know the goods, and quickly reminded him carefully:

"Your Majesty, His Majesty the King invented the automatic feeder."

He pointed to the rake-like lever on the iron stand where the paper was placed:

"In the past, I had to rearrange the paper and align it every time I printed. Now I can print 5 consecutive pages at a time, which is several times faster!"

Joseph looked at Louis XVI with wide eyes, thinking that he was indeed the patent holder of the new guillotine, and he really lived up to his reputation!

Not only did this allow the printing machine to adapt to the stone base plate, it was also greatly improved!

In this way, the time and cost of printing can be reduced a lot.

"I can't think of any other words except praise and admiration for you." Joseph exaggeratedly saluted Louis XVI with his chest caressed, "You are definitely the most powerful king I have ever seen!"

He added in his mind: It is limited to machinery manufacturing.

Louis XVI rubbed his hands proudly and said with a smile:

"If the spring is improved, 10 to 20 sheets can be printed each time."

He began to introduce his invention in detail:

"Look here, when you pull down the pressure lever, it will move the paper and then push it forward..."

Joseph looked at those exquisite mechanical devices and couldn't help but think. Perhaps he could start developing the next generation of rifles now without waiting for the craftsmen at the Charleville Arsenal.

The king is the best craftsman, it would be a waste not to make good use of it!

He asked about the situation of the board-making craftsmen and learned that they were already proficient in making stone printing plates. He immediately asked Eman to summon the bodyguards prepared for several people and ordered them to escort the craftsmen back to the Paris Merchant newspaper office immediately.

Louis XVI asked his assistant, the famous lockmaker Mr. Ferroland, to go to the newspaper office to help with the renovation of the printing press.

After all the craftsmen left, Joseph immediately approached Louis XVI and said in a seductive tone:

"Dear Father, I have a very ingenious design for a rifle that only a very skilled man could make.

"I wonder if you'd be interested in giving it a try?"

Louis XVI's eyes suddenly lit up...

This book will be on the shelves soon. I hope it will achieve good results in the future. It will not be in vain for me to stay up late every day to check the information.
