[Infrastructure] Rose kissed Barcelona

Although Antonio offered to be very interested in the project of renovating Montjuic Castle, Joey still sternly rejected him and asked the construction team to take charge of the repair work. After seeing his ability to skip classes and procrastinate, she just wanted to hurry up Watch him finish building his own house.

At the end of the summer of 1873, work began on the renovation of the Casa Fernández.

On the day when the construction started, the neighbors in the neighborhood were shocked to find that Mr. Dani, who haunted the underground world of Barcelona, ​​came to the door of the house with a group of helpers.

The group of tall and burly men in black went there, frightened the children who were playing football nearby to watch from the back of other houses, and the postman who was driving the carriage slammed the rope and strangled the horse. With a long hiss, the milkman accidentally smashed several bottles of milk, and the white puddle seeped into the ground, attracting flies.

There were rumors among the people that the owner of this house owed an unknown amount of usury, and he even alarmed the big bosses in the underground world.

It's really terrible, usury is the representative of Satan in the world!

As a result, when they found that the notorious Mr. Dani took off his hat and nodded to the smiling young girl, he happily accepted a pair of expensive oriental porcelain vases and dozens of cups of chocolate milk tea from her, I finally realized that I had guessed the wrong direction at all——

How could the owner of this house have offended the boss.

She is clearly a woman covered by a boss!

Afterwards, neighbors in the neighborhood gradually discovered that there were no more robbers and thieves in this area.

Those gangs with superb methods of committing crimes and roaming around the city seem to avoid this area by coincidence, just like clever mice avoiding the tempting cheese on the mousetrap.

In this regard, the neighbors lamented that the most important thing to buy a house is not to pick the location, but to pick the neighbors.

Work has started on the house, but the architect in charge is still a student and has now started school.

So, Antonio began to run at both ends regularly, and every time he was caught by Joey, he said that he was actually skipping a class, and put on a posture that I made a mistake and dared to do it next time.

After arranging all the affairs related to Montjuic Mountain, Joey was temporarily free.So her daily life became an occasional supervisor, mostly with Alfonso, watching him process messages from Madrid and other parties, read and study, and go about his own business at the same time.

She is researching improved fountain pens.

To tell the truth, she was really fed up with the pen that had to be dipped in ink every few words and still leaked ink at every turn.

Shouldn't the ink be used for a long time after it is full once?It should not be difficult to realize this function through a piston and a vacuum - the Magdeburg hemispheric experiment has been in the past for more than 200 years.

In fact, capillary tubes might work too.Due to the surface tension of the liquid, when the ink infiltrates the thin tube, it will automatically climb up slowly along the gap inside, just like automatically replenishing ink.

Although this kind of small invention is a bit too delicate for Joy, who has no relevant experience, she invited a pen maker, coupled with her experience in doing various design tasks in her previous life, and started trying again and again.

Here she is tinkering with pens, while Alfonso is reading and learning to deal with political affairs.

"Carlos occupied two more towns in the north," the boy said worriedly. "He accepted the support of Portugal and bought weapons imported from England. The local army couldn't resist effectively at all."

Maybe it's because of his specialization in art. Usually, Joey always felt that the young boy who was too immature turned into a mature politician every time he talked about serious matters.

He sullenly said: "It's been almost 200 years since the Glorious Revolution in England, and Carlos still wants to restore the monarchy. He even built the Inquisition in Estalia! Queen Victoria of England has to pass Technology has led Europe, but he is still daydreaming about medieval times, trying to control the people's minds through religion."

"Buy foreign weapons and organize the Spaniards to fight the Spaniards!" The little prince said coldly, "Regardless of whether I can become king in the end, at least I know that this guy must not be made king—otherwise our The country and the nation are finished."

Joy looked at the few books at his brother's hand, "The Spirit of Law", "Social Contract Theory", and even the thin "Bill of Rights" and "Constitution" - the version of the United States in 1787.

She was actually a little surprised.

Princess Rose is not interested in politics at all, and she was not raised as a crown prince.Therefore, she didn't understand at all the educational content that the little prince Alfonso received originally aimed at cultivating the prince.

However, Joy at least has some common sense-although these books are classics, many of them are popular in countries that overthrew the monarchy.The Spanish royal family will not teach the prince these things.This is what he learned when he was studying abroad?

"So what are you going to do?" Joey asked.

During the time she lived, Spain was one of the few countries that still had a royal family.If nothing else interferes, this is the future trajectory of the country.

"A constitutional monarchy." Alfonso said without hesitation, "The era of 'I am the country' has long passed. I have to push the parliament to promulgate the constitution as soon as possible. Spain is too chaotic now, and the various factions are fighting endlessly based on politics. Too many resources were wasted. If conservatives and liberals don't budge, sooner or later we will follow in the footsteps of France and Poland. Our country deserves a better future."

Joey was in a complicated mood.She knows the general trend of historical development, agrees with this general trend from the bottom of her heart, and is even willing to add fire to this general trend.

But she has the memory of Princess Rose and her true blood affection for her only brother.Facing this young idealist, she is not only a bystander, but also a person caught in this era.

"Alfonso," she said, considering, "I'll ask you a question."

"What's the question?" The little prince's black eyes sparkled.

"As you said, everything is chaotic now, and the situation in Madrid is very unclear. It is actually very dangerous for you to go back. It is even more dangerous if you want to promote your own political views among different factions-like going to the city with your own hands. Cut the oxhide rope on which the sword of Damocles hangs."

"If, I mean if, something like what happened in France 100 years ago may happen..." Joey thought of his brother's head being hanged on the guillotine, and his heart trembled suddenly, "Aren't you afraid?"

The 15-year-old fell silent suddenly.

He swallowed.

"I'm scared, sister," said Alfonso in a low voice, "very scared."

The candle flickered for a bit, and a drop of candle tear "popped" onto the table.

Joey felt sour, and stroked his soft black hair.

The boy lowered his head meekly, and said in a low voice: "But I know, this is what I have to do."

"I was born to be the crown prince of this country, and one day the crown will be worn on my head, so I must take responsibility for the crown."

"If one day my motherland ceases to exist, I will no longer have the meaning of existence."

"Now this country needs one party to make concessions in order to achieve better development, so I will make concessions."

The young man took Joey's hand with a soft hand, and his palm was cold: "...but sister, if there is such a day, will you save me?"

Joey stared at him for a while, then lowered his head, and pressed a kiss on the little prince's forehead, "I will, Alfonso."

This is a promise made for Princess Rose.

Joy originally thought that she came here miraculously, and maybe Princess Rose miraculously changed into her body in the 21st century.

She hoped that little Rose would not let those who love her find out and treat them kindly, so she would also treat those who cherished her around the princess kindly.

It has been a long time since she traveled, but she has been observing all kinds of people around her with a spectator attitude—from the point of view of later generations, they are like actors who have been assigned a script, but they are walking The ending is already preordained.

But she didn't find out until recently that they were never the group of people she imagined to be as static as specimens in history books.

They have their own troubles and joys, enjoy the life in front of them, and work hard for their ideal life.

They never expect others to save them. The legend of God has been shattered, and only they can save themselves.

They are going all out to create their own future.

In the autumn of this year, several things that the streets and alleys are talking about happened in Barcelona.

The city's first power plant opened on Parallel Street.

According to reports, this wonderful energy can replace both steam engines and kerosene lamps. This miraculous phenomenon is puzzling.

Montjuïc was bought by someone with a lot of money, and the military fortress was repaired.

Tracks and cables have been erected on Montjuic Mountain, and it is said that trams are planned-will those things be better than horse-drawn carriages?

It should be, after all, horses are like people, they don't like to climb mountains.

However, the news that sounds great but actually has little to do with people's daily life is over.

No piece of news has garnered more discussion than September's explosive headline—"Welcome to Ghost Tours!"

Ghost tour? !Everyone who saw it widened their eyes in surprise.

In fact, front-page reporters from various gossip tabloids, the most popular storytellers in bars, and circus performers have already been invited to participate in this event.

"Although the public-operated cable car on Montjuic Mountain has not yet officially opened, I was lucky enough to get the first passenger experience. This wonderful machine carried dozens of our experience guests and wobbled all the way to the top of the mountain. The top of Montjuic—I swear it's more comfortable than a buggy."

"It was evening when I arrived at the gate. The sunset on the top of the mountain was so beautiful that it dyed the bricks and stones of the castle blood red. Accompanied by the whistling wind and the shrill cries of seagulls, I saw the black-colored sea by the cliff, and it was swaying nearby. On the thicket of pennisetum, two rows of torches guided us, approaching the cursed castle."

"A staff greeted us at the gate of the castle, brought us into the front hall and divided us into several groups, and then someone took the groups to different places."

"After our group was taken to the living room in the east, everyone was given a script. Everyone's script was titled—"The Night Dracula Came."

"My identity is a detective. According to the script, I used to have a very high rate of solving crimes, so I was well-known in the city, and many serious noble ladies would hire me to investigate their husband's extramarital affairs. But with last year's studio A fire in the sky, and my youngest daughter fell off a cliff. A year after my slump, a friend of mine invited me to his daughter’s birthday party at his castle.”

"Other guests also got their own identities, such as the owner of the castle, the newspaper tycoon-I like this character, the lost traveler, the magician invited to add atmosphere, and the friend's wife and daughter, etc."

"The castle has been decorated in a brand new look. The huge candle lamp holders are shining with faint yellow light, and the shadows spread like spiders are crookedly reflected on the mottled brick walls. There are secrets in every corner, and every person They all carry an unspeakable past.”

"As the bell strikes nine o'clock in the evening, the birthday party officially begins—"

"Then, the horror in the castle began overnight."

The storyteller stopped here and took a sip from the glass next to him.

"And then?" shouted the people in the bar, "what happened?"

"And then, I swear to God, that was the most bizarre, weird and shocking night of my life; and, I must keep my secrets about that night." The storyteller said with a smile.

"However, now that the castle is open to all the public," he explained kindly, "not just "The Night Dracula Came", but "The Woman Who Walked Out the Window After Midnight" and "The Day the Full Moon Comes, One more person in the club" and many other stories. I think you will see other people described in various newspapers and magazines soon."

"Now the 'Ghost Tour' project has just been launched. From the round-trip cable car to the experience of the castle, it only costs [-] pesetas after the discount."

"Do you have someone you love but dare not confess? Do you have friends who love to experience new and exciting things together? Go with them. Believe me, you will get unexpected surprises."
