The Arrival Of The First Car In Iran
Muzaffar al-Din Shah went to Belgium on his first trip to Europe in 1279 AD, where he became acquainted with cars. He could not ignore this device, but on the other hand, he could not afford to buy it in the treasury. Eventually, he drove to a Belgian countess named Corman, and he could not ignore her charms. Eventually, he was persuaded to bring a car to Iran anyway. It is not bad to take a look at the conversation between the king and the manager of Renault regarding the deal of these cars: The king first asks: How much do you count the two devices with us? The director of the company, after bowing and politely addressing the king of Iran, says: The first car is free and the second car is 16,000 francs and the next cars are 15,000 French francs each. The king continues: Are the next cars working? The company manager answers: We have planned about 100 cars to be exported to Iran because we know for sure that as soon as His Majesty returns to Iran, many Iranian princes, elders, politicians, and dignitaries will want to buy cars. The king says: We are not used to taking anything from strangers for free, they will say "we have taken bribes". The manager of the company said: No, sir, it is not possible. Please accept the first car as a gift.
