Chapter 912: London

London, Tulip Palace. ＊WWW.suimeng.lā
This is the palace where Queen Victoria lives and works. Prime Minister Murphy arrived here early in the morning.
"Ms. Millie, please tell the queen that the guests from the country of Da Yu have arrived, and now the members are waiting for her." When the palace housekeeper appeared, Murphy couldn't wait to say, because in his opinion, this matter is very important.
Without waiting for Millie to speak, at this time a graceful woman dressed in costume came out of the room. She was Queen Vidomija who inherited the throne at the age of sixteen.
"Viscount Murphy, I haven't forgotten this important thing, let's go, let us see what the scientific level of the country is like?"
Vidomija has pure golden hair, her white face is like winter snow, and her red lips are like flames. Every time Murphy sees her, she can't help but wonder.
"Yes, Your Majesty." Murphy retracted his eyes, he now has a family, otherwise he has no doubt that he would surrender under this beautiful queen's skirt, just like many young nobles in London now.
The white dome carriage belonging to the Queen had stopped in front of the castle. Murphy got on his horse and followed the Queen's car to the House of Lords on Benjamin Avenue, where the British royal family, nobles and parliamentarians were waiting for them.
"Viscount Murphy, are all the scholars who belong to France really dead?" Entering the clean bluestone streets of London, Vidomia remembered the news she had just received.
Britain is too far away from the country of Da Yu. When she learned of this, more than half a year had passed.
"I can't be sure. It's hard to believe what the Frenchman said. After all, our relationship is not harmonious at all." Murphy frowned.
After the French Revolution, French capital merchants ruled the country. They used steam engine technology stolen from Britain. French industry developed rapidly and its national power became stronger day by day.
For the United Kingdom, this is definitely not good news. Therefore, the friction between the two countries has continued. During this period of time, France’s intervention in the war in North America has caused the two countries to freeze. If it were not for their common interests in Asia, they would Will not choose to cooperate.
"That said, the scholar from Great Yu country may be alive. This is really bad news." Vidomija lifted her chin and looked at the black plume of smoke outside London, which is produced by factories using steam engines.
After concealing it for seven or eight years, the steam engine is no longer a secret to Europe. In particular, the Dutch bought the reciprocating steam engine from Da Yuguo, which made their hard-to-secure technology cheap.
So in order to earn the surplus value of the steam engine, the House decisively decided to sell the steam engine to other European countries. Anyway, they can get it from the country sooner or later. Instead of doing this, it is better to earn it by themselves.
In response to the threat from Great Chongqing, those who originally opposed the use of steam engines also shut up, because for the first time Europe has encountered a real enemy in the world, and this country is already using steam engines to build an industrial country.
So how can the noble Anglo-Saxons lose to the natives of Asia? They have a solid industrial foundation, more talents, and a more open academic atmosphere.
Therefore, in this atmosphere, the use of steam engines is unimpeded, and factories with black plumes of smoke appear in every city in the UK, and their industrial products are also increasing day by day.
The only regret is that they found that this was not enough, because the Dutch's knowledge in the country really surprised them.
As we passed the Thames, Murphy looked at the bustling streets. Today's Britain is as vibrant as the sun at the beginning of the day. Everyone in the UK will be confident in the future until they are defeated in Asia.
"This is indeed a helpless thing, but at least we got a living scholar." Murphy smiled.
While talking, the two arrived at the House of Lords.
At this time, the British royal family, nobles, and parliamentarians have fallen, and two people from Great Chongqing are standing in the middle of the House of Lords. At this time, a dozen famous British scientists are surrounding them and asking about something.
"Your Majesty, today is a really good day."
An older nobleman with white hair stood up. He is the Duke of Paston and is now the Minister of Foreign Affairs.
"It's really a good day." Vidomija smiled. She took her seat. After years of fighting with the Conservative Party after her ascension, she now holds the real power of Britain through the Liberal Party.
The Duke of Paston is her uncle, he occupies an important position in the Liberal Party, and she has always valued him.
"Your Majesty, we figured out the artillery shells and rifles of Dayu a month ago. I have to say that their design is amazing. Just a change in the shape of the bullet makes the gun more powerful, and this kind of shell is even more powerful. It's subtle."
After Paston, a middle-aged man stood up. He came from the British Association for the Advancement of Science. They were responsible for cracking the technology from the country.
"Baron Cordial, I think bullets are a problem, but rifling is also another problem." Murphy shrugged. Cordial has a high status in British academia. The scientist known as the all-rounder designed a Series machinery.
"Of course, this was difficult before, but with the steam engine, rifling is no longer a problem. I think we should replace the old flintlocks." said Kodia.
"We can't be left behind by France and the Netherlands. It is said that the Netherlands has purchased a large number of muskets from the country. The most embarrassing thing is ~EbookFREE.me~ the battleship of the country is escorted by the country. Arrived in Europe in name, and returned in a majestic manner. Shouldn't the ocean be the backyard of our Royal Navy?" Vidomija looked serious.
He looked at Kodia, "I'm afraid we have fallen behind the country in science and technology, but now we still have a chance to catch up. It all depends on you, for the benefit of the British Empire."
"For the benefit of the empire," everyone said in unison.
Now they are facing a very obvious problem, that is, an Eastern power is rising, and the most deadly thing is that they have the ability to sail to Europe.
Vidomija nodded slightly. She looked at the two traitors of the Great Yu Kingdom in front of her and said: "As long as you can teach us the technology, I am willing to give you titles, castles and manors in the name of the Queen of England. The more changes it brings to the UK, the more it will get."
"Thank your Majesty the Queen." The students, one tall and one short, said gratefully. For their own benefit, they betrayed their own country, they have seen Britain become prosperous and powerful, and their shame is gradually leaving them. Now they desperately want to integrate into this new country.
For them, the price of betrayal is enough.
