บท 68: Chapter 68: Meeting with the Father of Cars

December 26, 1900, the first day after the Christmas vacation.

As the time to return to Australia drew closer, the entire diplomatic visiting group began to busy themselves, packing their luggage for the journey home.

The crew of the fleet were also taking inventory of the supplies, stockpiling in preparation for the maritime consumption.

In the midst of such busyness, Foreign Minister Andrews and Minister of Industry Pierre jointly headed to Ladenburg to meet Carl Benton, whom Arthur had specifically instructed to win over and befriend.

Although the two ministers didn't know much about Carl Benton and the company he belonged to. However, because it was Arthur who personally instructed this, the two regarded it as important and did not underestimate Mr. Benton at all.

In a small restaurant in Ladenburg, the two ministers successfully met "the father of cars" Carl Benton.
