The Rise of the European Emperor

It is not easy to put a steam engine on a locomotive, because the volume of the carriage is limited, and the layout of the steam engine and the boiler must be taken into account when designing the locomotive. Moreover, it is also easy to operate and maintain.

Therefore, Da Vinci suffered a lot during this period of time, and his hair fell out a lot, and he was almost bald. Although he is 61 years old, Marin lacks scientists and can only use Da Vinci as a mule.

In order to lure Leonardo da Vinci, a scientific mule, to work hard for himself, Leonardo da Vinci's 5-year-old son Picasso (a name given by the nasty Marin) has been canonized as a baron by Marin. Moreover, Marin made it clear that if Da Vinci had another son, the name would be Van Gogh, and he would also give a baron and a large barony...

As for the pay for the train? Marin said that once the train is successfully developed, he will add a county-level fief to Picasso...

Leonardo da Vinci had been to North America for a long time and knew that the land there was fertile. Therefore, in order to get a county fief for his son, he also worked hard. During this period, he did not forget to go back and create a villain with his wife Lisa, strive to create the Van Gogh promised by Marin, and let Marin give him a large fief...

So, Da Vinci is very busy now. While he has to study trains, he has to go home and make villains, and he has to take into account the training of science students in Beihai. It can be said that he has no skills.

But Marin couldn't do anything either. He was too lacking in scientific talents, so he could only catch Da Vinci's sheep and scramble for its wool...

Fortunately, the young Dürer was also very interested in science. This fellow is a copycat version of Da Vinci, or Da Vinci as his idol. Marin simply sent Dürer to da Vinci as assistants, both of whom were gifted in mathematics and mechanics. The difference is that Da Vinci's scientific foundation is much deeper through Marin's on-demand broadcast. To give Dürer to Da Vinci as an assistant also means to let Dürer be the successor of Da Vinci's mantle. After all, Leonardo da Vinci is 61 years old and God knows how many years to live. Well, Marin, the next target to be squeezed, has already been selected, and that is Mr. Durer, who is only 42 years old... At his age, he can still be squeezed for more than 20 years... To tell the truth, according to the retirement age of 65, Durer also It can still be squeezed for 23 years...

...

Since Caesar learned about the importance of Leonardo da Vinci to the development of trains, he often pestered Marin to teach him the principles of steam engines. At the same time, in order to appease Leonardo da Vinci, Caesar especially likes to take a 5-year-old Picasso to hang out in front of Leonardo da Vinci these days. In order to let Da Vinci try his best, Caesar took great care of Picasso and expressed to Da Vinci the attitude of "I will cover your son in the future", which really made Da Vinci very happy.

In fact, Picasso, who was 5 years old, was at the age of hating ghosts and was very naughty. Therefore, Caesar actually took care of the naughty Picasso with a smile on the surface and MMP in his heart. But he already understood the monarch's way to win over his subjects. Although he was a little impatient, he still pretended to love Picasso, the arrogant child.

Made a few kids from other families who were going to be Caesar's servants very jealous.

For example, Kahn's eldest son, Tyson, who is also 5 years old (also named by Marin, the younger son is Holyfield, but only 1 year old), was so jealous that he wanted to go to Picasso to fight. This bear child is as aggressive as his father, and his strength is so strong that he beat Picasso to tears. But Marin personally caught him, beat him, and frightened him again, so the kid didn't dare to mess with Picasso...

As for Kohler's son Kobe, and Schwartz's son Rommel (you don't need to think about who helped to choose the name), the two children are still young, only about 3 years old, and their walking is still unstable, unable to participate in the big brothers' competition for hegemony .

Haider gave birth to a little girl, but unfortunately Caesar was already engaged. Therefore, Haider simply did not send the girl into the palace. After all, there was no chance, it would be better to learn to be a lady at home, so as not to carry a few bear children crooked after entering the palace. You know, little girls who often play with boys can easily become tomboys... Marin has seen second-hand little girls who want to compete with a few little boys in his life. weeping sadly...

...

Just when Marin was busy with William's affairs and the research and development of the train, news came from Lithuania-Simon had been to Vilnius and swore allegiance to the Grand Sejm (Parliament) of Lithuania, officially becoming Ukraine, the Grand Duchy of Lithuania. count.

Now, since Simon has officially become an earl. Then, the next step is the wedding with Princess Anna of the Lamarck family.

Then, the entire Hoffman family moved to prepare for Simon's wedding.

Fortunately, Marin brought back a lot of satin and porcelain from the Ming Dynasty last time. These things are not very valuable in Daming, but very valuable in Europe. It is very honorable to take these satins and china as dowry gifts.

Even, Marin also prepared a 50-meter-long red carpet for Simon for the wedding. The wedding ceremony was on the red carpet, followed by a few beautiful little girls holding their skirts, which was very ceremonial.

...

After Simon returned from Vilnius, the countdown to the wedding began. After negotiation between the two parties, the two rejected the previous plan to hold the wedding in Kyiv. Because it is so far away, it is not convenient for relatives and friends to participate.

Therefore, the venue of the wedding was adjusted to the hometown of the Hoffmann family - Bochum...

As the "Long Xing Land" of the Hoffmann family, Bochum is relatively close to Cliff City, where the Lamarck family is located, so it is very convenient for the family to attend the wedding. Moreover, this was once the site of the Earl of Mark, which was ruled by the Lamarck family, and was considered half the home of the Lamarck family.

Although Bochum is only a small town, Simon had been stationed here for a period of time before and had repaired the City Lord's Mansion. And Marin thought the City Lord's Mansion was too small and imposing. Therefore, an engineering team was urgently dispatched, and a large amount of cement was brought back, and a new building was planned to be built with cement. Don't ask for more luxury, just ask to make do. After all, after the wedding, Simon went to Ukraine. Therefore, the newly built building is a bit like an illegal construction, and the workmanship is a bit rough. As for the carvings that the nobles pay attention to, there is absolutely no...

Fortunately, the feature of cement is that it is fast to repair the house. As long as the main body is built, the outside is smeared with cement. In a few days, it will be ready to use. Unlike the stone buildings of this era, which required a lot of manpower, masons piled finely polished stones into houses, which was very labor-intensive and time-consuming...

By the end of October, in just a few months, the city lord's mansion in Bochum City had a new look, its area had expanded fivefold, and there was a square that could accommodate several thousand people.

Then, on November 11, the Singles' Day of later generations, Simon's wedding was officially held in the Bochum City Lord's Mansion...
