The War Court and Lap Pillow, Austria’s Mandate of Heaven

Schönbrunn Palace, small classroom.

Thalia nodded subconsciously and said.

"I can't help it either."

Franz's face darkened, and it was not a problem to do Talia a small favor and solve the man who harassed her.

But Talia is very problematic if she hides from Franz and uses Franz's hands to do things for herself.

This is intolerable as a superior, Franz must let Talia know that he was wrong.

Thalia was not a stupid woman, she immediately realized that she was wrong, that she had deceived a sensitive superior, and she regretted being smart, because she had betrayed Franz's trust in her, and lost trust is not so easy to replace came back.

Acting like a baby is a woman's natural weapon, and Talia never thought that she would act like a baby to a child.

"I don't want to be pursued by that kind of bearded man at all. I'm only 22 years old. I don't want to get married. I still want to take care of you."

In fact, the 22-year-old Thalia, in this era when 16-year-olds have babies, can definitely be regarded as an old girl among old girls.

"Hmph! Lie to me!" Franz also pretended to be very angry, and he couldn't coax him well.

.....

Thalia pestered Franz for a while, and seeing that he was almost coaxed, she changed the subject.

"Mr. Costa proposed a new deal. He didn't find the legendary Golden City, but he found a kind of wheat that he had never seen before, and he brought back a batch of seeds."

"Wheat seeds? Isn't the Amazon a tropical rainforest?" Franz asked with some doubts.

"Yes, when Mr. Costa was looking for the remains of the Golden City, he accidentally discovered a village that had been abandoned for many years. This kind of crop was planted in the open space of the village." Thalia explained.

"Talia, you've seen that kind of wheat already. Have you?

"Yes, it seems to be taller and bigger than the common wheat. My family used to grow a lot of wheat. Even the plumpest wheat is not as good as the sample brought back by Mr. Costa. Maybe it can really improve The yield of wheat. But he hopes to get 100,000 florins as his payment."

One hundred thousand florins is not an unbearable figure for Franz now. However, for Costa's expedition, Franz had already paid 50,000 florins before, plus the final payment was exactly 100,000 florins.

But now no one can be sure whether the seed brought by Costa is real or not, maybe it is just a single individual.

Maybe Franz could use artificial pollination to cross it with local wheat to create a brand new variety.

Franz knew the theory, but never practiced it.

Speaking of these wheat seeds that may increase production, the risks contained in them are too great, and it is really not worth Franz's 100,000 florins.

And according to the contract, no matter what Costa finds and brings back, half of it should be given to the patron.

In other words, if Franz wants to buy all the seeds, he should pay Costa another 50,000 florins.

"Talia, you didn't explain, should we take half of his income?"

"Costa said he was free to price these things as he wished. Unless I would spend the night with him, he sold me those wheat seeds for fifty thousand florins."

Thalia gritted her teeth in hatred, she seemed really upset.

Franz wanted to tease her at first, but now it seems that he should not make fun of himself.

"Talia, do you think someone will pay 100,000 florins to buy the wheat seeds in his hand just based on his few words?"

Thalia was not surprised, but answered slowly.

"If it is an ordinary nobleman, even a big landowner would not accept this price, because the gain outweighs the loss."

"Indeed, even if these seeds are as he said, it will take a year to get enough seeds for sowing. And with the current grain prices in Austria, even if there are 10,000 mu of land, it will take nearly ten years to recover the cost .Besides, it is impossible to hide the matter of high-quality breeds for ten years. It is indeed not worth the loss." Franz said.

Seeing what Franz said, Talia knew that Franz had made up his mind, because she knew that Franz was not some little nobleman, and he was thinking about the whole country.

"Then let's continue planting rubber. I heard that the seeds of rubber trees are difficult to survive. You know that, so I bought so many." Talia deliberately changed the subject.

"Rubber needs to be planted, and this wheat should also be tried." Franz said quickly, "Talia, how much do you think we can get these seeds?"

"I don't think money is the most appropriate."

Obviously Thalia wanted to do a no-cost business.

"Talia, how did that man pursue you and make you hate him so much?"

Talia didn't answer, just gave a cruel smile.

It seems that creatures like women are extremely cruel to men they don't like.

"Well, just try not to kill anyone," Franz said.

Thalia patted her chest, indicating that everything was on her, but she needed someone to help.

"Who's that guy?" asked Franz.

"Colonel Hussel."

Colonel Husser is Madam Sophie's attendant. He is from Bavaria. He has always fulfilled Madam Sophie's orders by any means, so he is deeply trusted by Madam Sophie.

Moreover, this Colonel Huesel also had close contacts with a gang composed of Bavarians in Vienna.

This gang is not big, but no gang dares to challenge it~www.wuxiahere.com~ A large part of the reason comes from a legend: the real mastermind behind this gang is Madam Sophie, and Xussel is the messenger By.

As the eldest son of Mrs. Sophie, Franz asked Colonel Hussel for help, so he naturally had no reason to refuse.

It's just that Xussel is very shrewd and not easy to deceive. If Franz did something strange, I'm afraid Xussel would report to Madam Sophie immediately.

But because of this, Xussel would not tell the secret, only Madam Sophie.

Vienna, Thunstrasse, Hotel Grizzly.

This is the edge of Vienna, the legendary slums.

Because Costa did not find the legendary Golden City, half of his manpower was lost during the expedition.

The dangers are self-evident, not only facing bad weather, but also countless poisonous insects and beasts and terrible diseases.

Costa knew that his good fortune could not last forever, he was tired of this life, and he wanted to go ashore.

Although Costa can get three times the reward as the expedition leader, the income from this expedition is not enough to pay for the rest of his life.

But now he has an opportunity in front of him, to be close to this rich young lady in front of him, then he will not have to worry about food and clothing for the rest of his life.

Although he had only met this lady a few times, he knew that a family that required women to show their faces frequently would most likely not have a male heir, and he might be able to inherit a noble title in the future.

Of course, Costa could also see that the lady was not interested in him, but fortunately, he got a magical drug from a primitive tribe in the Amazon rainforest, which can make people have strong hallucinations... .
