Chapter 524 Happiness
101 General Hospital of the First Town National Defense Force.
The 101 General Hospital of the National Defense Forces is the medical institution with the most complete medical facilities and personnel in East Africa. Just hearing the name may not make you realize how serious it is. After all, in the military environment like East Africa, the military is well-paid, and a hospital linked to the military is naturally quite reassuring.
In fact, the 101 General Hospital of the National Defense Forces also assumes the functions of the Royal Hospital. Ernst did not directly establish a Royal (Royal) Hospital, just like the East African Defense Force is not called the Royal (Royal) Army. Of course, the Royal Army also has it, that is, the Royal (Royal) Hospital. Guards Division, but still nominally belongs to the National Defense Forces.
It is worth mentioning that since the reconstruction of the Little Rhine and the opening of the canal, the Royal Guards Division also has its own naval sequence, but it is essentially a river and lake force. Several quite advanced river ships were imported from the Austro-Hungarian Empire to serve as a ranking.
If the gap between the Austro-Hungarian Empire's naval capabilities and the British Royal Navy's strength is quite large, then the opposite is true for the inland river forces. The Austro-Hungarian Empire's mainland area is much larger than that of the United Kingdom, and it is located in the center of Europe, with the Rhine, Danube, and Rivers such as the Letania River have extremely high shipping value, so the demand for inland naval forces is quite high.
The Danube and the Rhine are both cross-border rivers. There are many rivers like this in the European and Hungarian Empire, so the inland navy is naturally indispensable. It occupies an important position in national defense and has considerable funding.
These inland river ships introduced in East Africa are also at an advanced level internationally. They are used in conjunction with East Africa's own inland river ships and coastal defenses. In addition, the outlet of the Little Rhine River is located at Bagamoyo Port, the headquarters of the East African Navy. , so the water power from Bagamoyo to the first town is quite strong and it can be said to be impregnable.
The 101 General Hospital of the National Defense Forces is responsible for the important affairs of the royal family and the army. Naturally, it will not let people enter easily. Therefore, there is also the First People's Hospital of the First Town in the first town to serve "civilians", but this How to define civilians is a matter of opinion, but the medical level of the First People's Hospital is no worse than that of the 101st General Hospital of the National Defense Forces. It can be regarded as the twin stars of East African medical institutions.
Responsible for the medical services of the royal family, the 101 General Hospital of the National Defense Force is naturally not something that people within the military can enter. However, after all, it has the name of the National Defense Force, so there are several branches under the general hospital specifically to serve the military.
Today is an important day for the 101 General Hospital of the National Defense Forces. In addition to the personal visit of the Crown Prince and His Royal Highnesses, the results of an important experiment will be carried out at the 101 General Hospital of the National Defense Forces, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is also very concerned about it.
On the third floor of the hospital, the Ernst family of three are waiting for the little prince's physical examination report in the service room specially reserved for the royal family of Hechingen.
"Look at this little guy, he must have inherited your beauty, he is so cute!" Ernst teased, hugging the sleepy Prince Friedrich.
Carina said shyly: "I didn't expect you to be so glib."
Women are always praised. Looking at Karina, she expressed disgust on her lips. In fact, the corners of her lips were harder to suppress than a Kalashnikov rifle.
This makes Ernst feel very strange. Karina has been with the Queen Mother Sophie since she was a child, so she has a more serious personality. When she first arrived in East Africa, she mostly used fake smiles. According to Karina, that was the manner of an aristocrat.
At first, Ernst was not very comfortable with it. After all, he was someone close to him. Although Constantine was a great nobleman, because he only had Ernst as his son, he doted on him and did not have high demands on him. Therefore, since Ernst's awakening Still as free and easy as before.
Looking at Ernst staring at her, Karina blushed and said angrily: "Why are you laughing?"
"No, I just find her lively and cute." Ernst was self-taught after marriage and learned how to coax his wife.
"So skilled, have you said this to other girls before?"
"No way, don't you understand me? I'm so busy every day, so how can I have any spare time?"
Speaking of being busy, Karina understood her husband. After all, such a large family business in East Africa was mainly created by Ernst himself. In the past, Ernst was the founding king of the country, but Ernst had no pursuit of fame in this regard, so he might as well let his old father be happy.
"You have been busy with water conservancy construction recently, are you too tired?" Karina said with some distress.
Although it was a political marriage, Ernst and Karina had already met each other, and they were consensual, so their married life was still very happy, and a relationship quickly developed.
"I do pay more attention to water conservancy construction. After all, no country can avoid this problem, especially agricultural countries. But don't worry, after a while, when the people below get on the right track, I won't have to keep an eye on it every day. "
Ernst is telling the truth. He was a civil engineer in Africa in his previous life, so he has a lot of experience in engineering construction. Ernst is no stranger to urban construction, roads, bridges, water conservancy, and other infrastructure in East Africa. This can be said to be Ernst's. Special's area of expertise.
It is precisely because Ernst traveled to Africa for a long time in his previous life that he knew the situation in Africa well and played a huge role in the development of East Africa.
East African projects attach great importance to quality, which is similar to that of the Soviet Union. After all, East Africa is also a planned economy.
With the addition of Ernst, a civil engineering guy, he is more attentive to the construction of East African projects. Many of them are century-old plans for East Africa in the future, so he keeps a close eye on them.
Ernst looked at his worried wife and said, "When I have some free time, we will add some more brothers and sisters to Friedrich."
Karina, who was concerned about Ernst just now, suddenly showed a surprised expression: "Ah! Why does it involve me again?"
Ernst looked a little distressed. He took out one hand to hold Karina and explained: "I know this is a bit embarrassing, but this is our responsibility. Heixinggen has only three generations of seedlings, so in such a big family in East Africa, I don't want to take advantage of others in the future."
It's not that Karina is averse to giving birth to children, it's just that it's a bit sudden, but she also thinks that Ernst is right. East Africa has definitely developed into a big country now, and of course it is best to pass it on to her own descendants.
She said shyly: "I listen to you."
Ernst looked at his considerate wife, put poor Friedrich aside, and hugged his wife sweetly. He felt extremely grateful for the education given by Queen Mother Sophie. As for independent women, Ernst was not too If you like each other and are independent, then it's too clear. Someone has to make compromises in a family's relationship. After all, the relationship is mutual, and worrying about it can lead to misfortune. Franz and Princess Sissi are examples.
Ernst and Karina are both relatively traditional people, so they get along well. This is the same as Karina's parents. However, Karina's parents are both very tolerant. Now both of them have calmed down, so they are still getting along. They are very happy. The word happiness is the most difficult word for aristocratic families.
Princess Charlotte, Karina's mother, is a lover. Although she is a little vain, her love for Archduke Ferdinand is unwavering. Although Archduke Ferdinand was a little indecisive when he was young, he has a strong sense of responsibility and is dedicated to his work. , also has great respect for Princess Charlotte.
As for Constantine, he is definitely an infatuated person. He raised his son alone and never married again. Now he is devoted to helping his son build East Africa. Ernst is also a relatively filial person, and the relationship between father and son is harmonious.
So although the Ernst family has a distinguished status, it is not much different from an ordinary family. Ernst enjoys this kind of family atmosphere.
