The Sun Never Sets In Spain

Chapter 52: Pope Representative

Hearing Alfonso's refusal, Napoleon didn't take it seriously. As he said, France, with an army of 1.2 million, is not as good as Catalonia.

But since he has refused, there is not much to talk about. Catalan is like a toddler in front of France, and really can't find anything interesting for Nasan.

After knowing that Alfonso was blocked in the basement, but did not open Wushuang, he was even more disappointed.

After dealing with a few words casually, she said goodbye to Alfonso on the excuse of being unwell. Eugenie also left afterwards. Only Nasi and Alfonso were left in the lounge.

"Dad is too busy, in fact, he still cares about you." Seeing that everyone else had left, he leaned forward to Alfonso's sofa and was next to him, comforted, he also saw the attitude of taking the three. Somewhat perfunctory.

Alfonso pushed him away vigorously, and he was a little dissatisfied: "Don't say it as if I am a child who longs for father's love. Nasan is not my dad. He doesn't care about me, I don't care at all."

"But the emperor is the little dad of the people." Take Si blinked: "You are French."

"Did you read too much Czarist Russian literature?" Alfonso questioned:

"Can aristocrats count their nationality by blood? Then His Majesty Alexander is still Germanic, is His Majesty William his father, the grandfather of Tsarist Russia."

"..." Nasi was speechless. Recently, he was reading Russian literature under the guidance of court teachers. He was very envious of the infinite power of the tsar, and often imagined that the emperor had the ability to talk about it.

"Well, I don't have any comments. I know that His Majesty Napoleon has been very busy recently." Alfonso's tone eased.

He was just a little speechless by the behavior of using the four forces to cling to relationships, but he didn't have any thoughts in his heart.

He benefited a lot from the talks. Because he allowed the royal family to postpone the payment of funds and vote for money, the Bonaparte royal family made some promises.

Foremost among them, several fertilizer companies privately controlled by the royal family will give priority to the supply of fertilizers to Catalonia, but Alfonso has no idea what this is precious.

Chemical fertilizers are truly rare these days. Nitrogen fertilizers, urea, which are commonly used in later generations, can be synthesized in laboratories, but factory production is still in the foreseeable future.

And another nitrogen fertilizer technology, synthetic ammonia, even has no shadow.

The main raw material of chemical fertilizers is struvite, which is a fine-particle mixture of seabird, bat or seal excrement and animal and plant residues. It is rich in nitrogen and phosphorus.

Not only can it produce fertilizer, but it can also produce gunpowder. A country's people's livelihood and military account for all.

So at this stage struvite is an important strategic material. Ten years later, the saltpetre war in South America, also known as the struvite war, is to grab this stuff.

In history, one of the main methods used by the United Kingdom to block Germany was to restrict the export of struvite. Germany also developed synthetic ammonia technology. Only after bypassing the blockade, did they dare to start a war.

The main producing areas of struvite are South America and the islands, all of which are independent from Spain. Because of the issue of nationalism, they don't like Spain very much.

In this case, Catalonia should not try to obtain too much struvite to produce fertilizer.

So when Alfonso and Fidel discussed agriculture, they didn't mention this-this matter could not be solved by themselves.

However, France still has a lot of struvite stones. Britain and France divide the world, and no one can lack them.

A little exposure of the French fingers is enough for Cathay to eat, and Cathay’s agricultural report for the next quarter should be very impressive.

In addition to chemical fertilizers, there are also mutual tariffs and most-favored-nation treatment, and so on.

In short, although taking three is a bit of a tendency to treat Catalan and even Spain as a younger brother, it is really good for the younger brother.

Nasan is very busy these days, and Alfonso is also very busy.

As the representative of Catalonia, I have just finished talking with France, and there are private affairs that he needs to deal with.

The foreshadowing that was laid a few months ago has finally come to fruition, and the Red Cross has grown stronger in various countries.

The first training center for field doctors in Paris has also opened.

The reason why it is a training center rather than a Red Cross hospital is because the Red Cross has not yet completed the transition from wartime assistance to normal assistance.

We temporarily set up a training center. Those who aspire to become doctors in the field can come here to receive training in their free time, and there are specialized instructors to teach for free.

It's actually a tutorial class.

As anyone can see now, the Franco-Prussian War is inevitable.

Henry and the Red Cross took this war as an opportunity for them to take off and prepared for it very carefully.

They are very active in the international arena, while making comments everywhere, calling on both sides to restrain themselves and avoid causing a humanitarian crisis.

On the one hand, the medical team has been expanded to create a momentum to let people know that they will be the savior of all wounded soldiers.

In this case, Alfonso, the permanent honorary chairman, has also been noticed by many people.

In line with his previous deeds, some people now call him the contemporary paladin Roland, with a perfect face, a holy heart, and a powerful force.

The esteemed Pope was one of the people who noticed him. He not only sent a representative to see him in Paris, but also invited him to Rome if he had time.
