King of German Mercenaries

Chapter three hundred and first fulfillment

Leonardo da Vinci and Lisa Jiaocondo, worried all day long, engaged in underground activities and generally fell in love. Every day, they used Marin's oil painting as an excuse to meet in a villa in the east of Aurich. Said to be drawing comics, but in fact, most of the time I was flirting with each other.

In the end, Da Vinci couldn't stand this covert situation and decided to ask Marin for help...

In fact, Marin originally intended to give Da Vinci a knighthood. However, it turned out that Da Vinci was a courtier of the Principality of Milan and was kidnapped. Therefore, although Marin rewarded Da Vinci with a house and a lot of money, he did not have a title for the time being.

Because, the canonization of the title must be made public. Before, the Principality of Milan was still a first-class power in the territory of Shinra, so Marin was naturally inconvenient to make it public.

However, now that the Principality of Milan has been destroyed by France, and Ludovico Sforza has become the monarch of the subjugated country, Marin can actually reveal the identity of Da Vinci, but there is only a lack of opportunity. After all, the design and manufacture of a clockwork musket by Leonardo da Vinci is enough for a knighthood.

It's just that Europeans in this era don't think so. Although Europeans in this era paid more attention to technology than Huaxia, they have not yet reached the level of canonizing aristocrats because of an invention.

Europe during this period was still in the late Middle Ages. Although more and more attention was paid to technology, it was not yet to the point where it was rewarded with titles because of technology. At most, those who invent great technologies are rewarded with money.

Only after the rise of religion, science and technology will be more and more valued by people, and scientists will be knighted for their inventions. For example, Newton in the 17th century would be knighted by Queen Anne for his great contributions in life (including his contribution as the director of the Mint). In the following years, Britain has successively awarded the title of knight to 21 great scientists. Of course, after the 19th century, the title of jazz was actually very worthless, because at that time the commoners had risen, and the title of jazz had more knowledge and glory.

But in the 15th century, jazz, knights and so on, but very social status. Therefore, even if Marin didn't award Da Vinci a knighthood, Da Vinci didn't think there was any problem.

...

Marin was playing checkers with Angela when Da Vinci ran into the palace to ask for help. After the bearded middle-aged uncle said the reason, Angela, who was drinking water, directly sprayed the hot water in her mouth and sprayed the opposite Marin's face...

Marin is also confused - I asked you to paint the Mona Lisa, but you actually kidnapped the Mona Lisa?

You know, Lisa Giocondo is the daughter of Da Vinci's friend... If Marin was the old Giocondo, he would definitely be so angry that he would use a kitchen knife to hunt down Da Vinci, the shy old man...

Moreover, for the beautiful Mona Lisa, Marin actually has such a little idea in his heart. After all, that is a world-class beauty who has been popular for more than 500 years. You know, Lisa Giocondo is not the aunt of the French Louvre, but a more beautiful British version of "Mona Lisa", with white skin and beautiful skin. If it hadn't been busy with foreign wars before, maybe Marin would have attacked the "Mona Lisa". Although it is impossible to marry her, it is still possible to have a mistress. It's not that Lisa Giocondo is so beautiful that Marin is fascinated. However, "Mona Lisa" is a beauty through the ages, after all, being taken care of by herself is very fulfilling...

Of course, Marin's thoughts weren't that strong, he just had a little bit of evil thoughts. Now, Da Vinci is not ashamed to start first. Although Marin regrets, he will not really hinder. After all, Ada is a great scientist he values ​​very much. In order to win over the Great God, a beautiful woman is nothing.

Facing Marin's stunned expression, Angela on the opposite side felt uncomfortable...

Angela had met Lisa Giocondo and knew that she was a beautiful woman. Before, she had no other opinion about Lisa, she just thought she was a model.

But,

At this moment, seeing some regret in Marin's face, Angela was jealous...

As a girl from an archbishop's family, Angela is not a fool. She knew that it was a common thing for a big man to have a few lovers outside.

However, until now, she herself has not reached the final step of breaking through with Marin. Although Marin told her that it was to protect her body, Angela was still not at ease.

This time, Giocondo seemed a little reluctant to see Marin compared to Lisa, who was one year older than her. So, her vinegar jar was overturned...

Originally, Angela also felt that 48-year-old Da Vinci and 19-year-old Lisa Giocondo were not a good match. However, in order to make Marin give up on Lisa Giocondo, Angela decided to complete Da Vinci and Lisa... So...

"Honey, their love is so touching, can we help them?" Angela looked at Marin pitifully and said.

In fact, Marin had already planned to help Ada in his heart, but he couldn't say it all at once. First of all, he wants to make the illusion that "this is difficult to do", so that Ada thinks it is not easy to do. Then, Marin worked it out again. In this way, Da Vinci will be very sincere.

Thinking of this, Marin first wiped the face that had been sprayed with water by Angela, pretending to be embarrassed:

"Ada, it's not that I don't want to help you. It's just..."

"Just what? Lord Earl?" Ada looked at Marin nervously, be careful with the thumping of his liver...

"Mr. Giocondo's family is not a serf under my name. Even if it is a lord, I can't forcefully arrange marriage for them, right? I am a very kind lord!" Marin said righteously.

"This..." Da Vinci was also speechless. However, he was thinking in his heart - what are you pretending to be? If you were a good person, would you have kidnapped me like a robber?

"Dear, just help them! Look, how much contribution Mr. Da Vinci has made to you? Didn't that clockwork musket also help you a lot?" At this time, Angela was in the Persuaded aside. She wished Leonardo da Vinci took Lisa away quickly, so as not to be missed by Marin.

Da Vinci also came to his senses - yes, doesn't Marin value his scientific talent? If you are willing to make more useful things for him, you can make Marin "slay his face", right?

So Da Vinci gritted his teeth:

"Lord Count, if you are willing to help me this time, Da Vinci is willing to be loyal to you for the rest of my life, and to study all useful technologies for you wholeheartedly!"

Marin curled his lips in his heart-feelings, did you, Ada, fool me before?

In fact, the previous Da Vinci was really fooling Marin a bit. Although he began to serve Marin, there was still resentment in his heart. For example, this clockwork gun, if Da Vinci did his best and hurry up, he would be able to develop it successfully in two or three months. However, because of dissatisfaction with Marin's kidnapping of himself, it took more than a year to develop it slowly. Although the process is also considered responsible, but the time-consuming is still a bit too long. You know, this is just research on a clockwork musket, and it will be a toy level in later generations, and it doesn't take that long at all.

Now, for the sake of love and a happy life in the future, Da Vinci has decided that if Marin is willing to help him marry Lisa, he will serve Marin wholeheartedly...

"Lord Count, I can swear allegiance!" Da Vinci said with a serious face.

The so-called oath of allegiance means to kneel in front of Marin, caress the Bible, and swear allegiance to Marin in the name of God. This is the highest etiquette of allegiance in Europe at present. In this era when theocracy is so powerful, this kind of allegiance ceremony is generally irreversible, otherwise it will be spurned and despised by the whole of Europe.

Seeing that Da Vinci was on the road, Marin pretended to be embarrassed and said:

"Well, I can try it... By the way, Ada, I 'designed' a sextant here, which is used to measure latitude in navigation, you see..."

Marin suddenly remembered that he hadn't done a sextant yet. Although, Amerigo is also an astronomer, and he can calculate the position with the naked eye.

However, with the naked eye, the error is very large. If you measure it with a sextant, it will be much better. You know, the latitude of the earth, the error of one degree angle, the distance is more than 100 kilometers away. The error of the naked eye is too large, or the sextant is more accurate.

In addition, Marin expressed his desire to develop a more precise clockwork clock...

Da Vinci knew that Marin was giving him a quiz, so he took on both tasks without hesitation. He knew that as long as these two tasks or the first one was completed, Marin would come forward as a matchmaker for him...

Then, with great creative enthusiasm, Leonardo da Vinci pulled a group of Italian watch craftsmen and started the process of developing a sextant and a clockwork clock (nautical clock)...

On Marin's side, he also began to send people to Giocondo's house to help Da Vinci speak without a trace, paving the way for Marin's final appearance... Even, many times, Angela personally went out to help Da Vinci. Vinci said good things - the couple plan to grow old together, and complete Da Vinci and "Mona Lisa"...
