My Italian

Chapter 375: Kaiser apologizes

"Your Majesty, this is the diesel fueled internal combustion engine I invented, with a power of 25 horsepower..."

As the inventor of the diesel engine, Rudolf Diesel is explaining his invention to Carlo, explaining its excellence from various indicators.

In fact, without Diesel's explanation, how could Carlo not understand the excellence of diesel engines? Otherwise, he wouldn't have come here in such a hurry. You must know that it would take half a day to travel from Rome to Milan by train, let alone go back, which would be a day's delay.

It's just that Carlo rushed to this real diesel engine, which was a little different from what he had imagined. Instead, it looked like a vertical steam engine.

Of course, no matter how this first-generation diesel engine is, its broad space in the future is visible. But now, we still need to consider practical issues.

"Can I say a few things about this diesel engine?"

Facing Carlo's words, who would dare to say no without long eyes?

"Your Majesty, please speak."

Under the attention of everyone including inventor Rudolf Diesel, Carlo spoke. "As for the characteristics of diesel engines, I think Professor Diesel has made it very clear, so combined with its characteristics, I think that diesel engines need to be researched in two directions. Compared with the steam engines currently used in various countries, the advantages of diesel engines are obvious.

The second is miniaturization. The diesel engine has the characteristics of strong horsepower, and it can also be used as vehicle power. Of course, this needs to be further studied. At present, this is definitely not possible. "

Carlo is referring to the first-generation diesel engine in operation. The diesel engine fixed on the steel frame can vibrate with a large range of motion with the naked eye, and it must not be used as a vehicle power.

Carlo's words embarrassed the inventor Diesel, although he knew that it might be the king's inadvertent mistake.

Carlo also observed that his own words made the inventor embarrassed, so he quickly remedied, "This is just my humble opinion. How to determine the research direction depends on you, the inventor, to decide."

Carlo's words made Diesel feel much better, how could Carlo not be moved with such respect as a monarch.

"Thank you Your Majesty for your attention, I will try my best to produce satisfactory results."

"Don't worry, if you achieve outstanding results, Baron Tesla will be your role model."

Carlo's words surprised everyone. You must know that Tesla is a legend. This Serbian-born inventor, electrician, physicist, mechanical engineer, electrical engineer, and chemist is recognized as a master of electric power business and the first person in the practical application of Italian science. .

In recognition of this world-class master, various Italian certificates and medals were awarded to him free of charge. In addition, King Carlo even rewarded him with a knighthood. It can be said that in terms of reputation, Tesla has reached the peak of its fame. As for money, Tesla has no shortage. The whole world can see the benefits of alternating current. Westinghouse Electric Company has never been short of orders. And Tesla, which owns part of the shares, will not be short of money.

Of course, it can’t be said that there is no shortage. This guy has recently started to think about sending power to the device in a wireless way. It required a lot of money. He had approached the person in charge of the Marino Electric Power Laboratory, but he hadn't gotten the desired result, so he wanted to talk to his friend Carlo for some support.

Kahlo compares Diesel to Tesla, even if it is touted, it can be said to be quite important.

Facing Carlo's attention, what else could Diesel say, he could only hold Carlo's hand and answer vigorously. "Please rest assured, Your Majesty, I will definitely, definitely!"

That's right, in this era of nobles, even if they are declining, this identity is full of temptation for most people. Scientists are also human beings with emotions and desires.

Carlo made such a promise to Diesel because he also valued the use of diesel engines. Diesel engines are widely used. At present, they can be used in mines, docks, and ship power. Especially for inland ships, the huge steam engine is really not suitable. The use of diesel engines on inland watercraft is indeed unique.

After visiting the diesel engine, Carlo did not leave immediately. Instead, under the leadership of the person in charge, he looked at some other departments, such as the gasoline engine, which has always been popular. Compared with the newly born diesel engine, there are more people and types of gasoline engine researchers. In addition to the development of gasoline engines for automobiles, any large-scale, high-standard models, etc., let Carlo feel that the research on gasoline engines is definitely ahead of Italy. to the front.

Of course, how to transform the technical advantages of the gasoline engine into other advantages requires serious consideration by Carlo.

Visiting various products in the power laboratory opened Carlo's eyes, and time slipped away under such circumstances. By the time Carlo came out of the power laboratory, it was already late.

"Your Majesty, do you want to rest in Milan for the night?"

The newly-appointed chief guard, McLenne, stepped forward to ask Carlo what he meant.

Baron Felicić was over sixty years old, and he was already unable to handle the job of head of guards due to his aging body. I proposed to Carlo many times before to resign, but was rejected by Carlo who had no suitable candidates for the time being. The position of chief guard is very important, and it is impossible to get it without Carlo's approval, and McLenne is the person Carlo has gradually been able to trust over the years.

"Let's rest for the night."

Carlo thought for a while and answered, after all, it was not appropriate to go back tonight.

"Alright Your Majesty, let's go to Milan Palace now."

The most indispensable thing in Italy is palace architecture ~lightnovelpub.net~ can be found everywhere, and it is also available in Milan. This is a palace built in the Middle Ages, owned by the Italian royal family, and it can be used as a place to stay.

And just as Carlo boarded the carriage and was about to set off, he saw the head of the guard, Mike Lun, knocking on the door. "Your Majesty, there is an urgent telegram from Rome."

Upon hearing the urgent call, Carlo immediately opened the car door to pick it up. It's not an important matter, and there is no need to send an emergency call, so Carlo is also curious.

After opening the telegram, Carlo breathed a sigh of relief. This is not a domestic matter. In fact, this matter has little to do with Italy, that is, William II apologized for the previous telegram incident. The Kaiser, who was overwhelmed with British anger, had to write to Queen Victoria to defend himself: "It never occurred to me to use this telegram against Britain or your government..."

Listen, is this an apology? No matter how you look at it, it seems that the wronged person is complaining about the other party's over-excitement.

Well, according to Carlo's cognition, the Kaiser has been wronged, so he must make up for it, so the German Navy's First Act is a very powerful response. I just don’t know, what goodies will the German Navy, which is supported by Italian technology, come up with?
