My Italian

New York is the largest city in the United States and the most prosperous city in the United States. Since it is the most prosperous metropolis, various new technologies will also be used first.

For example, in the use of electric lamps, the New York City government is very foresight. They chose Edison's electric lamps as the lighting choice in the municipal lighting bidding meeting in 1880.

This also made Edison famous, and also let the electric light enter the eyes of more people. Since there are winners, there are also losers. Among them, Mark Qin was the most unsuccessful. The gas lighting lamp invented by him was originally in the bidding of the municipal government, but was defeated by Edison in various ways. Not only that, after Maxim's bid failed, Edison also used various methods to force him to sell the company and threatened him to leave the United States (this is a historical fact).

Edison's clean killing method was extremely uncomfortable for Maxim. You must know that Maxim is not an unknown person. His family is a descendant of the Hugo family in France. After being deported from France to the United Kingdom, he moved to Plymouth in the United Kingdom and Massachusetts in the United States.

But even so, it is still not Edison's or Morgan's opponent. So after selling his company, Mark Qin thought about his own way out. A friend of his jokingly pointed him the way. "Put your chemistry and electricity aside, and if you want to make a fortune, invent weapons that can make you a fortune."

The friend's words were a joke, but Mark Qin listened. You must know that he has researched automation since he was a child. When he first started a grinding mill (he was both the manager and the only employee), he succeeded in creating an automatic mousetrap. Later, he invented the automatic fire extinguisher in the Olympus company. More to say, the current automatic fire extinguisher still adopts the principle of Maxim.

During this time, Maxim locked himself at home and used his talent in automation to design drawings of various automatic rifles and automatic pistols. However, these designs did not bring him any profit, because they have not been commercially produced (lack of money).

Taking this into consideration, Mark Qin planned to develop a fully automatic weapon mechanism as a stepping stone to his own weapon research and development, and to make his name famous all over the world.

That's right, Edison's actions stimulated Mark Qin, and he also wanted to attract the attention of those big men.

"Bang Bang Bang."

There was a knock on the door, disturbing Mark Qin, who was working hard in the room.

"What's the matter, can't you let me be quiet for a while?"

Facing Mark Qin's complaint, his wife's voice came from the door. "Okay, don't complain about Hiram. It's Hudson, don't you want to meet?"

Hudson, whose full name is Hudson Maxim, was the younger brother of the owner of the house, Hiram Stevens Maxim. He is also an inventor, but his research direction is in explosives, and he is also well-known in the research of explosives.

Hearing the arrival of his younger brother, Mark Qin opened the door and walked out. However, his image is not very good. The clothes that have not been taken for a long time, the beard that has not been taken care of for a long time, and the red eyes, no matter how you look at it, the word sloppy is put aside.

"What is Hudson doing now?"

Facing his wife looking at him with disgust, Hiram Maxim asked curiously. My brother is not clear about his own situation. He had warned Hudson before that he needed to concentrate on his own research.

And the younger brother came in a hurry at this time, why exactly?

Hiram Maxim, who was sorting his clothes, was thinking about the arrival of his younger brother.

And then his wife gave him a message. "By the way, your brother also brought two friends."

"Okay, I know."

After replying to his wife, Hiram Maxim went downstairs.

"Hudson, long time no see, why did you come to visit this time, and brought two friends here."

After Hiram Maxim hugged his brother, he asked what he wanted.

"Let me introduce you. These two are from Italy. They made a special trip to invite you to Italy."

Under the introduction of their younger brother Hudson Maxim, the two visitors stood up and introduced themselves.

"Hello, Mr. Hiram Maxim, my name is Doran Pavon."

"My name is Rob Lista."

"We are from Italy."

"what's going on?"

Hiram Maxim, who was a little confused by the two guests, couldn't help but ask.

One of the thin visitors said. "Let me tell you."

"That's right, Mr. Hiram Maxim. We were originally here to find your Excellency, but unfortunately we didn't know your address, and then we found your brother, who led us here."

"Oh, that's right." Hiram Maxim continued to ask after hearing his explanation. "I don't know what the two of you have to do with me?"

"Mr. Hiram Maxim, we heard that your Excellency is researching automatic weapons. We in Italy are very interested in this, so we want to invite Your Excellency to Italy. Of course, this is also what King Carlo of our country means. He thinks that people like your Excellency Talents should not be buried. For this reason, our country is willing to give you, whether it is financial or other support."

Speaking of which, he also glanced at the house where Mark Qin lived, UU reading www.uukanshu.com continued. "In addition, our country is also willing to pay you a monthly salary of 2,000 lire. Of course, we also know that this salary does not reflect your ability. For this reason, we have also prepared an agreement. As long as the automated weapons developed by you are sold, Whether it is physical or technical licensing, you can get 20% of the profit."

This condition must not be ungenerous. It can be said that it is a reward for a top weapon designer. Many weapon designers dare not think like this.

Of course, this is not the panic of Carlo Qianduo, because although Maxim is very embarrassed now, he was considered a rich man in the end, and Italy is not in his choice to go to Europe. If you want to win this epoch-making weapon designer, it is difficult to make him tempted without offering an irresistible reward.

I didn't see Hudson Maxim standing beside him open his mouth wide, showing a surprised expression after he finished talking about the reward.

But he was rich before, Hiram Maxim said after listening to the reward. "Thanks to the Italian side for valuing me, but please allow me to think about such a major event for two days."

"It doesn't matter, we live in the Waffle Hotel not far from here. If you think about it, you can tell us at any time."

After sending off the two guests, the younger brother Hudson Maxim couldn't help but said. "Brother, no one in the United States can offer such conditions."

"I know." Hiram Maxim continued after replying to his younger brother. "At least let me know who these people are. You can't believe what they say."

Compared with his younger brother, Hiram Maxim is more rational. At least he needs to find out if the two are really representatives of the Italian government.
