To Four Thousand Years Later

v4 Chapter 62: i'm just a normal person

Staring at Leonardo in a daze, Floros sighed with emotion.

He gave a relieved smile.

"As expected of you, Your Majesty.

He whispered: "I haven't seen you for so many years that I almost forgot what your noble and flawless soul looks like.

"It's no use flattering me, Floros. I'm not going to be king."

"Very well, Your Majesty.

Floros shrugged: Then I have another news for you

"yes."

"It's expected," Leonardo thought for a moment, "then let Lielakin take a look first. He's quick to act and far-sighted. The most important thing is that he's free... just give him some work.

"Yes, Your Majesty.

"In addition, I plan to summon Yastaru Baimon and Barr. I will give them a month to deal with the things around them and then come to Florence.

Seeing Floros' expression, Leonardo said calmly: "I don't like refueling tactics, Floros. When I decide to do it, I don't want any accidents.

"But I remember that Sardinia was just one of their strongholds

"Prudence is the best thing, Floros... not only them, but I will also go.

Leonardo replied in a low voice: It is also my mission to rebuild the Rosicrucian.

Your Majesty, there is no need for you to go.

Hearing that Leonardo would also be dispatched, Froulos, who originally thought the lineup was too luxurious, suddenly felt that there might not be enough people. He rubbed his hands, and said with some concern: "Why don't I call Amon, Agares, Eliog, and Furneus? They should be free.

"Don't be so exaggerated, Floros... It's not like I'm incapable of fighting, so I don't need to act like the emperor is on patrol. Except for Baal, Yastaru and my lovely son, there are not many of you who can defeat me.

Leonardo smiled lightly, and rolled up the drawings on the table: "Instead of worrying about me, why don't you take care of Francis and Michelot, and teach him a few more psionic spells, even if it's to relieve Francis of my worries." And Michellot was taken to Alexandria by Phoenix who received a letter from the Episcopal Church and left last month. He studied psychic power at the headquarters of the Episcopal Church. By the way, Phoenix also invited Leonardo to go too Take a look at the Anglican Church in the past few hundred years, and invented the technology of increasing spiritual power. It can further expand the spiritual power potential of the awakened. Although it may not be useful for Leonardo, it is harmless anyway. But Leon Nado decided to stay here because he was busy inventing. This is why Leonardo will live in Lorenzo's house and have the opportunity to chat with Floros.

One is because in Verrocchio's studio, apart from the old man, Leonardo really doesn't know anyone else.

He is not the only one in Verrocchio's studio—it's not that Leonardo is afraid of loneliness. He has been locked up for more than ten years, and he will not miss these few years. It's just that Master Verrocchio has more than a dozen other students, too many people. The large patent fees earned by Leonardo may also cause him some hesitation. It's not that Leonardo is worried about his own safety... he is worried about the safety of those students. Because of his patent fee, it can already be said to be a huge sum of money. As the sole designer of the drawings and the designated partner of Chairman Lawrence, he can enjoy a high 40% profit share. This share ratio once made the businessmen think that the president's mind was flooded.

But later, the hot sales market immediately made the businessmen who did not invest in this project feel extremely regretful. In the past three months alone, the Transnational Chamber of Commerce sold forty-five Leonardo machines. Leonardo collected 3600 from it, and this is the sales share of most of Tuscany.

As the market continues to expand, even involving foreign markets, today's earnings will be less than a fraction.

Of course, with the popularity of Leonardo machines, the value of jacquard fabrics will also drop rapidly due to flooding. But after all, it is not a cheap and easy-to-obtain commodity, and the price cannot drop too much. The bigger problem will only be the saturation of the market. But even so... It can be predicted that in the next long period of time, Leonardo will be able to make a fortune from this invention that other inventors will never be able to match in their lifetime. Will be jealous of the problem.

This is enough wealth to attract thieves, crooks, robbers and even mercenaries—especially the owner of this wealth, Leonardo da Vinci, is just a fifteen-year-old boy with no power to restrain a chicken . Leonardo was still worried about his difference engine, and other inventions... diagrams... such as flying machines, vacuum steam engines, several different types of fuel engines, analytical engines, etc.

And he was invited by Lorenzo's father for a good sum of money.

However, Your Majesty. Floros thought for a moment: "What are you going to do with the money?" "

"What, are you useful.

"No... I just thought, if you are not in a hurry to use it for the time being. I can take it to An Luoxian, and ask him to invest in some projects in the International Chamber of Commerce in his name, and use money to make money.

Fraulos replied calmly: "He will definitely choose the ones that make the most money for you. You can also let him bear the risk by himself." Leonardo was slightly startled, and raised his head with interest : "I'm determined...you actually have financial awareness, Floros.

He couldn't help but marvel at it. Thinking of the prophet Nathan who was by King David's side back then, Leonardo felt a little dazed for a while. Leonardo came back to his senses, shook his head and rejected Floros' kindness: "But I will not use this money to invest in you, I have other uses.

"Are you going to use it for the rest of your invention? But I don't think so much.

"This was one of my original plans." Leonardo shrugged. He reached out and grabbed a cup of black tea in the distance with spiritual energy, pulled it over and warmed it: "But I changed my mind now—I want to take the money to Lorenzo, let him use the new engine I invented, I Make some giant airships. For this purpose. I need a lot of cow casings."

"It just so happens that there are quite a few herdsmen in Saj. We don't have a lot of cattle shortages. When Floros said this, he suddenly paused: "Do you think that the Teutonic people are talking about Teutonic wheat? I don't think it's because of this." Leonardo thought about it when he heard the words. The Teutons dumped Teutonic wheat and forced neighboring countries to farm... Is it because they wanted to hide their intention to manufacture airships? For example, to first lower the neighboring countries’ The price of cattle and sheep, and then buy it... But isn't it taking off your pants and farting? They also have a lot of arable land, so they can find a way to get cattle intestines...

…Unless, besides the purpose of getting beef intestines, they also plan to stockpile some grain.

"Just in case... I'll figure out how to get some new legislation. Just assume they're preparing for war."

Leonardo replied. "So, are you going to spend all your money on airships?"

"Any questions?"

"Not currently, but...Froulos paused: "When your difference machine starts to sell, I'm afraid the money to produce airships...is inexhaustible.

"It's better if you can't use it up. Donate the rest to repair the slums and build welfare homes." Leonardo said casually: "Of course, I don't expect this to get them out of poverty, but the subway farce is always Need to make up...why are you looking at me?"

Don't you plan to save some for building a palace or something? "

"I've said it all, I'm not a king.

Leonardo sighed, and said earnestly: "I'm just an ordinary person now, Floros. I can eat, drink, and spend a lot of money on weekdays. I can design clothes by myself, I can invent travel tools, and I can make decorations. If I do it myself, it is even more important to do the painting myself. If I really want to build a palace, I will draw the design drawings myself... Then you can just help me build it and it will be over.

"Except for the material problem, I don't have much need for money. Because I really can't think of anything else I want to buy with money.

Leonardo replied seriously: "I'm an ordinary person who knows everything, Floros.
