The Sun Never Sets In Spain

After sending Henry away, Alfonso sat back on the sofa.

When it comes to the Red Cross newspaper, he wants to do it himself. If he can have a newspaper of his own, everything will be much more convenient.

But after careful consideration, he reluctantly gave up the idea.

Newspapers are highly regional. Basically, newspapers in various countries are run by people from all countries, and only local people will subscribe.

As the mouthpiece of the government, it is impossible for him to be controlled by a foreigner, even if he has a good relationship with the highest level.

The matter of running the newspaper can only be carried out after he returns to the country, but at that time he does not need to care too much. The government has instructed to run the newspaper.

He sorted it out carefully and found that he didn't have much money. The investment money of the supermarket had to wait at least 3-4 months after the supermarket opened, and the license fee for the lottery would also be 2-3 months.

Of course, Isabella still has more than 3 million pounds in her hand (not much cash), as long as she wants to ask for as much as she wants, but forget it, it's not enough.

Apart from the £60,000 reserved for the supermarket and his own life, and £20,000 for Henry, he still has £20,000 of working capital in his hands. What can you do?

He was a liberal arts student in his previous life. He didn't know anything about science and technology. After thinking about it, he decided to start with luxury goods.

Nowadays, people use pocket watches, not to mention expensive, mainly because of inconvenience.

It is better to make two watches, one of which has a higher price as a substitute for pocket watches.

Rich people should like it. After all, it is not natural to use a pocket watch to show off the need to take it out of the clothes from time to time.

Everyone can see the watch at any time, and the invisible outfit is much more rounded.

The price can only be higher than the pocket watch, not lower than the pocket watch, otherwise it will form the concept that the rich use pocket watches and the poor use watches, which will affect sales.

The other one is positioned as a military watch. It is more sturdy. In the age when there was no walkie-talkie, the advantage of allowing soldiers to accurately know the time is self-evident.

The Franco-Prussian war is about to begin, and as long as you perform well in this war, you will never worry about sales.

Of course, you still need to apply for a patent in advance, after all, the watch is not technically content.

Just do it when you think of it. During this time, Diaz and Domingo often ran errands between him and Zana, and they have successfully transformed from a guard to a secretary.

"Domingo, please contact Zana for me and ask him to find two well-crafted watchmakers."

There were many watchmakers in Paris, and within a few hours, an old man and a middle-aged man stood in front of Alfonso.

At this time, both of them had a blank look on their faces. They both thought that Alfonso had asked him to make a watch, but why did he call two people at a time?

Alfonso handed them two pieces of paper, and said solemnly: "Two people, what I'm going to talk about next, please sign the confidentiality agreement first.

If this can be done, I guarantee that your respective rewards will not be less than 5000 francs! "

Both of them were very worried, and the middle-aged man hurriedly lowered his head, picked up the contract and looked at it.

The old man was a little embarrassed: "My lord...I can't read."

"Diaz, read it to him." The literacy rate in France is around 60% these years, and it's no surprise that you are illiterate.

"Party A: Wal-Mart Commercial Co., Ltd., Party B............"

After listening, both of them signed their names. The old man was illiterate but could write his own name (in a sense, it was literate). After all, watchmakers often have to engrave their names on their works.

"Okay." Alfonso clapped his hands. "Since I have signed a non-disclosure agreement, I'll just say it straight.

You need to make a smaller watch, and design pinholes on both sides of the watch to hold a leather or metal watch strap to fix the watch on your wrist. "

The two of them were surprised: "Isn't this a watch? You can do this!"

"Huh?" Alfonso thought: "Has anyone done it? But I haven't seen it in the market, nor have I heard of it."

He hurriedly asked: "What? Has anyone proposed the idea of ​​a watch?"

"No, no, no." The two shook their heads together.

After two people explained it, Alfonso realized that as early as 20 or 30 years ago, a group of people wanted to put the watch in their hands.

But there was a mistake in their thinking. They wanted to put the watch on the bracelet, but in the end they tried their best but failed. They had no choice but to give up the idea.

"There is no difficulty in adding a pinhole to a belt, but if you can come up with this idea, it means that you have creativity beyond ordinary people, and this design will surely be a great success!" The middle-aged man admired.

Alfonso breathed a sigh of relief and said, "No one has made it yet. I have two different positionings for this watch.

One is luxury goods, inlaid with precious stones, how gorgeous the appearance can be.

The other is military products. The strap and dial must be strong. In addition to the timing function, it must also have a pointing function. I know that it may be difficult to soak in water, but at least it should not break when it is exposed to water. "

The old man replied: "I will design a military watch. I was a soldier when I was young. I must design it well."

"Okay, but you must draw a good design drawing. If you have any difficulties, talk to Dias. He will arrange for someone to help you. Within half a month, he will hand me a sample." Alfonso stood up and said seriously.

Watching the two watchmakers leave, Alfonso instructed Domingo: "Prepare the carriage and set off."

Domingo didn't bother to ask where he was going. It was 4 o'clock in the afternoon. Where else to go, he knew with his feet that it must be the West Paris Racecourse.

But he still said: "Aren't you called Your Royal Highness Edward?"

Alfonso smiled, "Edward must have arrived. You don't need to contact him, let's go!"
