Marion suddenly remembered Elizabeth's family motto
,"Make friends with people who are better than you."”
Then she looked at her own father, the king of inventions, Thomas Eden.
He had never admitted that others were better than him. Moreover, when his mother told him that Bruce had saved them,
he even blamed his mother for donating 50,000 dollars.
At the same time, he warned Marion not to contact that Chinese kid.
With this comparison, she finally understood why Elizabeth's father looked down on the father of the king of inventions.
"Elizabeth, let's write back to Bruce and say that we'll go to Chicago together during the National Rifle Shooting Competition, okay?!”
Marion glanced over and grabbed Elizabeth's shoulders.
Elizabeth, who was the same age as Marion, thought for a moment and then nodded.
"Then we have to prepare now. My father said that if you plan ahead, even if you fail later, you will be more successful than those who didn't plan, because you will realize your shortcomings and gain valuable experience. So, I'm going to save up 50 dollars before we leave.”
"Is that so?" Marion pinched her chin with her fingers and thought for a moment
.”
"Alright, let's prepare together, Marion!”
"Yes, Elizabeth!"
Thus, the two little lolis made up their minds and began to discuss how to reply to Li Zixuan.
After writing the letter, the little lolis were filled with anticipation. They drank tea in the library while reading seriously.
It was not until the afternoon that Marion got into the carriage that came to pick Elizabeth up reluctantly and waved goodbye.
From this day on, the two little lolis had their own secrets.
"Dad, I've already cleaned the hall. It's twenty cents," Elizabeth said to her father who had just returned home.
"Dad, let me massage your back. Fifteen cents!”
.....
"En, Sean!" At first, his father didn't think much of it.
After all, the rule he set for the family was that they would be rewarded with money for doing things and to cultivate their children's ability to be independent.
However, he gradually discovered that his younger daughter was abnormal. Her younger daughter had stopped many of the family's work.
Even the butler and maids would complain that Miss Elizabeth had stolen their jobs.
Therefore, the father began to send people to investigate
until one day, the butler reported to him. If it was an ordinary parent, they would immediately persuade their daughter, who was not even ten years old, to give up on going to a strange place alone.
However, Elizabeth's father smiled.
"Since Sean wants to go to Chicago with Eddie's daughter, don't stop her. This is a good thing for her. Just send someone to follow her secretly!"”
"Yes, I understand, sir!”
After saying that, the butler left the study.
The father walked to a bookshelf that was tidied up. There were all kinds of newspapers neatly arranged on it.
The New York Times, the Washington Post, the Los Angeles Times, the Daily Chronicle…
He would ask the butler to collect all the influential newspapers because he could get a lot of information by referring to these newspapers.
He casually picked up a copy of The New York Times, which had a photo of a Chinese boy printed on it.
"En, let Sean take my place to inspect you first. Don't disappoint me, kid from China!”
At this moment, Li Zixuan, who had no idea that he had already caught the attention of the top figures in the Eaglesauce Nation, was still in a daze.
He was receiving a person from the Hans Kingdom.
Baden van Ascania, a noble from Hansjunker.
This time, he was actually representing Paul Mauser, the owner of the Mauser Company in Württemberg, to discuss the authorization of smokeless gunpowder.
However, Li Zixuan did not believe that the Hance Empire had no intention of sending a Junker noble here.
The current Emperor Hans, who would be known as Emperor William in the future, was a true martial artist.
During his reign, he unified Hans after three Dynasty Wars. He even pressed the Gallic Chicken, who thought he was the best in the army, to the ground.
If such a person could not see the true value of the smokeless gunpowder, Li Zixuan would never believe it.
In fact, after Li Zixuan applied for a patent for smokeless gunpowder in various countries, because smokeless gunpowder could greatly increase the initial speed and effective range of rifle bullets,
countries all over the world were now scrambling for smokeless gunpowder technology.
However, the arrogant John Bull and Gaul Chicken seemed to be more shameless.
After obtaining some of Li Zixuan's patent technology, they seemed to be planning to develop their own smokeless gunpowder on this basis.
So far, he had no intention of discussing the patent authorization with Li Zixuan.
Li Zixuan was helpless about this. Even if he wanted to file an international patent lawsuit, according to Lawyer Bob, he would have to pay the patent fee.
Going to court with those bandit countries was also a long and difficult process.
In comparison, Hans was the first capitalist country to come to negotiate patents.
Therefore, Li Zixuan instantly had a favorable impression of this Junker noble from the Hans Empire.
