The War Court and Lap Pillow, Austria’s Mandate of Heaven
Vol 2 Chapter 9: Franz
Vienna, Schönbrunn Palace.
Franz was forced to receive an education and could no longer point the country on the map.
The gentleman who came today wore a top hat, a brown turtleneck coat, and a pair of riding boots on his feet.
When he saw Franz, he took off his top hat and saluted.
"Hello, Dear Grand Duke Franz, I am Aaron Aberdeen. It is a great honor to be invited by the Habsburg royal family. From today, I will teach you."
Franz nodded in response. This is not Franz's arrogance, but the court etiquette requirement. High-ranking people are not allowed to speak to low-ranking people first, unless it is an order or request.
In fact, European-style education in this era has nothing to do with so-called happy education.
Every priest will hold a teaching stick or a pointer in his hand. If a student makes a mistake or fails to answer a question, he will "enjoy" the treatment of severe beating.
Although they won't greet Franz, Thalia on the side will suffer.
Who made her Franz's tutor.
Originally, Talia was full of confidence. After all, she was one of the few female college graduates in this era, and she once won the first place in the examination for the secretary of the Prime Minister's Office.
During the several years of teaching Franz, Talia felt that she had already handed over everything to Franz.
But Talia never imagined that these face-saving university professors would give a university question directly to a child who just started school because of evil people's hearts.
What made Talia even more unexpected was that Franz actually gave the wrong answer on purpose.
This Mr. Aberdeen was no exception. When he found that addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division could not trouble the child in front of him, he couldn't help but secretly scolded the female teacher for being perverted. She was simply inhuman for teaching a child so much.
But he couldn't lose face as a professor, and he didn't want to deliberately create some weird problems, so suddenly he had an idea.
This trick can not only save his face, but also allow him to leave work early.
"Grand Duke Franz, you have worked very hard, now I want to give you a new topic:
Please calculate the sum from 1 plus 2 plus 3 to 1000. We will dismiss the get out of class when you figure it out. Of course, if you haven’t figured it out today, you can continue to calculate it tomorrow. "
Aberdeen with a foxy grin.
Talia was a little displeased, who are these people, do they have no morals at all? Was this intended to use Franz as a coolie?
Franz took out a scrap of paper and looked at Thalia.
Thalia immediately covered her mouth and whispered, "You can't figure it out, can you?"
Franz asked with a smile, "Do you think I can figure it out?"
Talia clasped her hands above her head.
"If you figure it out, I'll tell you good news."
"How good is it?"
Thalia was about to speak, and Professor Aberdeen slammed the pointer on the table.
"Shut up, don't disturb Archduke Franz's calculations."
Thalia had to shut up, and then looked at Franz.
Franz wrote a row of crooked numbers on his own paper.
Franz looked at Professor Aberdeen, who was a little surprised.
"finished?"
"Yes, Professor Aberdeen."
Professor Aberdeen walked to Franz and saw "500500" written on the paper
"My God, what a genius!" Aberdeen exclaimed, and then felt that it was unlikely that this woman was playing tricks.
So Aberdeen thought of another problem.
"There is a piece of grass in the pasture that grows equally fast every day. If you feed 10 cows, you can eat the grass for 22 days, or if you feed 16 cows, you can eat it for 10 days, and the grass grows all the time. If you feed 25 cows How many days can a cow eat?"
"5 days." Franz replied without hesitation. This is not because Franz really has any amazing mathematical talent, but because he has heard the story.
As long as Aberdeen changed the number at will, Franz would have to recalculate, and Aberdeen moved the problem back as it was, and Franz naturally knew the answer.
Now Aberdeen was so shocked that he couldn't be more shocked. He knelt on the ground and wept.
"You are such a genius, as long as you follow me to study, I guarantee that you will become a great mathematician in the future..."
Thalia clapped her hands to signal the guards to come.
"Another crazy one, take it away."
The guards were no stranger to it. Madam Sophie had ordered that those who wanted Franz to specialize in a certain technology or join a certain organization could be thrown out without asking for instructions.
After all, what Mrs. Sophie wants is a king, not an expert in a certain field. In fact, what Mrs. Sophie is more afraid of is that Franz will become a master craftsman like Louis XVI.
The guillotine or something, it's horrible....
The guards grabbed Professor Aberdeen and dragged him out, but he still did not forget to speak to Franz.
"Austrian mathematics needs you, Archduke Franz..."
Franz shrugged, and Talia was already laughing.
"I thought you only had those beautiful aunts in your mind!"
One of the few pastimes that Franz came to this world for was looking at beautiful women.
However, due to the backwardness of makeup technology and the difference in aesthetics, the vast majority of beauties in this era have only a sense of horror in Franz's view.
Among the women Franz met, only Madame Sophie, Thalia, and Aunt Ludvika (the mother of Sissi and Nana) could be considered beautiful.
This has something to do with the emperor. Franz II was very old before, and the ladies and maids in the palace had followed him for decades.
Later Ferdinand I... I don't think he has this need, after all, her wife, Queen Anna, has to find a lover to solve the problem.
Ever since, it resulted in the tragic situation of nuns everywhere in Schönbrunn Palace.
"Talia, what's the good news you said?"
Franz swung twice, the whip he had just stolen from Professor Aberdeen. UU reading www. uukanshu.com
"Okay, okay. The seeds of the rubber tree have been brought back. Is this good news?"
Franz nodded, he can finally plant rubber trees in Chenla, which is an important raw material for future industries.
Historically, Brazil has monopolized the rubber trade for a long period of time, resulting in the inability of many industries to expand on a large scale due to cost issues.
"Excellent, I will ask my mother for a delicious meal tonight. If you have spare time, please mail these seeds to Grand Duke Ambrosius, and let him find a way to promote planting in Chenla."
Franz suddenly noticed that Thalia was lowering her head and rubbing her fingers, so he asked.
"What's the matter, what else do you want to say?"
Talia smiled sheepishly.
"Frantz, I have some bad news for you..."
Franz's expression froze.
"Say."
"I got the seeds, but Mr. Costa said that I have to pay more."
Franz was speechless for a while, he didn't expect that the royal family could also be ripped off. But after thinking about it, Talia would definitely not reveal her identity.
Seeing that Talia was spending a lot of money and she was a woman, the other party decided to raise the price on the spur of the moment.
But thinking about it, it's not right. She was asked to pay it twice, and there is a contract. Could it be that Costa is crazy?
Then he looked at Talia up and down again. Talia was tall and tall, with long blond hair hanging freely, coupled with exquisite facial features and fair skin, plus a special temperament of noble scholars of this era, As long as she doesn't smile, it really gives people a sense of arrogance and surprise.
If I had to say points were deducted, it would be her shoulder width comparable to a man's and those two small canine teeth.
"Have you been harassed?"
