Count of Wizards

Chapter 22 Emperor Raul (Part 2)

"Three hundred years ago, there was a steam engine, but at that time, the steam engine consumed a lot of energy and had low efficiency. In that era, the steam engine before it was improved, according to the emperor, was like a tasteless existence. It was tasteless to eat and discarded. It's a pity. But after the improvement of the genius general emperor, the shortcomings of the steam engine, such as high consumption and low efficiency, have been completely improved. The work that can only be done with one ton of coal before, can be completed by the improved steam engine with a quarter of a ton of coal! What is rare is that Emperor Raul, who is so great and extremely humble, did not name the improved steam engine after himself, but named it the Watt steam engine!"

"Watt steam engine? It's a real hammer, it's a real hammer! Emperor Raul must be the senior traveler!" The improved steam engine was named after Watt, and such a thing instantly confirmed Connor Ferguson's bold guess just now.

Not paying attention to Connor's mental activities, the thin Professor Ferdinand continued to talk about his courses eloquently,

After improving the steam engine, Emperor Raul also historically created a musket that changed the traditional way of warfare. Under the impact of the musket, the strength of the nobles with knights as the main body was greatly damaged. The knights organically combined to form a new type of army, and led this army that had never appeared before in history. They conquered the north and the south, pacified the Odin barbarians on the Saxon Plain in three years, and made the stormy seas big and small in five years. Thousands of pirates lowered their rebellious heads and learned to obey the laws set by the empire.

Under the support of nobles, merchants, farmers, and all social classes, the humble Emperor Raul declined the Florentino family's nine abdication requests before abdicating for the tenth time. Sixty years, crowned emperor!

After proclaiming himself emperor, Emperor Raul began a series of political and economic reforms. These reforms are called "Raul's Reforms" in history. In politics, Raul's reforms broke the tradition of kings strengthening their power since ancient times. The form of the constitution of the Kaman Empire limited its own royal power and established a parliamentary party system. The aristocracy entered the upper house, while the lower house was democratically elected. In this way, power was further locked in a cage.

In terms of economy, Emperor Raul first measured the land of the entire Kaman Empire and severely cracked down on land mergers. Secondly, he vigorously supported the development of industry, commerce, and ocean trade in the form of tax relief. Now the modern city construction of our empire, the railway A series of infrastructure such as construction were laid during that period.

Listening to Professor Ferdinand's crazy boasting about Emperor Raul on the podium, Connor Ferguson, who was sitting below, had a wry smile on his face.

"There is no doubt that this senior traveler named Raul is definitely a man of heaven! Otherwise, how can you imitate Zhu Chongba and use the method of nine retreats and nine concessions to show off and prove the legitimacy of his rights? Pity these aliens People really think this is humility!"

Suddenly, the voice of Professor Ferdinand, who had been emotionally agitated, became low. In the 217th year of the Fourth Era, the great revivalist of the Kaman Empire, the founder of the Thorn Flower Dynasty, the conqueror of Odin, the godfather of the political party, Lao Emperor Er fell in Didan Palace at the age of seventy-three.

"Damn it, such an awesome character just died like this?" Connor felt a little unbelievable.

Professor Ferdinand seemed to be still immersed in his own world, and he didn't notice the doubts of Connor who was sitting in the first row close at hand. Regarding the death of Emperor Raul, he only mentioned it briefly and didn't say much. Next In the lecture, Ferdinand mainly focused on the political reform of Emperor Raul.

"Chip, retrieve the content about Emperor Raul from memory!" Connor said silently in his heart:

"Drip! The mission begins..."

Ten seconds later, everything about Emperor Raul in his memory immediately appeared in Connor's mind.

These materials are almost the same as what Ferdinand said just now, and they are basically consistent. However, Connor knew a gossip that was wildly spread among the nobles about the death of Emperor Raul, and that was Emperor Raul. In fact, he didn't die, but in that way, he gave up the throne to pursue extraordinary power!

"Hi!"

Connor, who was thinking about Emperor Raul, suddenly felt someone appearing beside him, and immediately recovered from the state of checking his memory. Only then did he realize that the class had ended, and only himself and himself were left in the classroom. George standing next to him.

"Huh? My dear friend George, tell me to wait, you won't ask me to be your wingman again, and go to the bar to meet those courtesans?" Connor jokingly looked at the well-dressed and dog-like George in front of him.

"Ahem, cough, what are you talking about!" With a few coughs, George rolled his eyes at Connor, then found an invitation card from his pocket and handed it to Connor.

"My father will celebrate his birthday on the 15th of next month. We will hold a birthday party at home. As my friend, Connor, I hope you can come and celebrate this moment together!" George said solemnly:

"Uncle's birthday? This is a happy event. Mr. Harvey is an elder I admire very much. Don't worry! I will definitely be there!" Connor smiled and accepted the invitation with both hands.

Seeing that Connor didn't refuse, he accepted the invitation very readily, and George also showed a happy smile on his face, "Because the birthday party is going to be held, there are a lot of things at home, and I have to go back to help. Believe me, you will not attend the birthday party, Connor." Disappointed, there will be a super beautiful woman coming that day..."

Hearing George's words, Connor couldn't help laughing, but he nodded and said, "I'm looking forward to it."

Saying goodbye to George and returning to his apartment, Connor's eyes sparkled with excitement. Today is his seventh day back from the castle!

"My progress is faster than I imagined. I touched the mental barrier of a junior apprentice yesterday, and I will definitely be able to break through to become a junior apprentice today!"

Sitting cross-legged on the soft bed, Connor began today's meditation.

In the luxuriously decorated apartment, only the "da da da da" of the clock can be heard. Connor is like a statue, surprisingly quiet, only the slightly agitated temples still prove that Connor is still alive.

"Boom!"

Accompanied by the chime of the hour on the clock hanging on the wall, a strange wave appeared on Connor's body.
