For example, the Hublot Big Bang with 1,282 diamonds is worth $5 million, the Patek Philippe Supercomplication mechanical pocket watch is worth $10 million, and the Chopard 201-carat diamond watch is estimated to be worth $30 million.

But these are the products of legends, generally speaking, million-yuan watches can become top luxury goods, so Mr. Han was taken aback by Lu Qiujian's words, so that he forgot the sentence he emphasized earlier, "It is a clock, not a watch".

Suddenly, he regarded Lu Qiujian as a god-level loser who spent his father's money and didn't feel distressed, but even if he was a loser, spending 30 million on a watch, there was only one in the world, right? Even those oil princes in the Middle East can't do this kind of thing, right?

It took a long time for Mr. Han to wake up from the shock, and his watch lover's attributes had the upper hand again, staring at Lu Qiujian with glowing eyes and asking, "What kind of clock did you order?

"I'm afraid this won't work, we are a secret unit, and outsiders are not allowed to enter!" Lu Qiujian replied with a smile, the change in his expression just now was really funny.

"Confidential unit?" Mr. Han didn't have time to think about the relationship between the confidential unit and the clock, and continued to ask pitifully, "Can't you let me see that you can always tell me what model it is and what material it uses, right?"

"I just bought an atomic clock! You want to buy one on the market! It's just that my requirements are higher, that's why I spent so much money!" Lu Qiujian, who couldn't bear to tease him anymore, revealed the mystery, modern scientific research has higher and higher requirements for measurement accuracy, whether it is length, weight or time, and many special measurement tools have been born, and the atomic clock is one of them.

Of course, what the Xihe plan wants to use is the one with the highest accuracy that Huaguo technology can achieve, and it is reasonable to spend 30 million dollars, and this atomic clock is just a temporary item in the opening stage of the plan. He also placed a more demanding order, but this is not something that can be completed in a short time, otherwise the price will be even more scary.

Mr. Han almost spurted out a mouthful of blood, and said for a long time that it turned out to be this thing! A house as big as a clock is also called a clock? What is the point of not being able to take it out on your wrist to show off? He was so depressed that he couldn't speak at all now, he just stared at Lu Qiujian and rolled his eyes.

"Hehe, am I doing scientific research, and should I purchase some experimental facilities!" Lu Qiujian looked at him with a smile, and secretly complained in his heart, the most luxurious people in the world are not local tyrants and corrupt officials, but we scientists!

Diamonds are a very precious luxury to you, but Lavoisier sees them as nothing more than experimental consumables. He placed the diamond in a glass cover and used a magnifying glass to gather sunlight to burn the diamond and obtain a colorless gas. It was verified that the gas was carbon dioxide, thus proving that the diamond was made up of carbon. In this experiment, he consumed enough diamonds to make a hundred brides-to-be breathe.

Silver was an important material for them to make jewelry and decorate their rooms, but for scientists, it was just a raw material for wires, and in the Manhattan Project in the United States, in order to build a large cyclotron, a huge magnetic coil was needed, each of which Lorentz designed to be 80 meters high. A large amount of silver is required.

Lorenz approached Lieutenant General Groves, commander of the Manhattan Engineering District, and Lieutenant General Groves immediately arranged for his assistant Nicholas to consult with the Treasury Department. Just emphasize that this is a war need.

"How much?" Bell asked?

"6000 tons," Nicholas replied.

Bell knelt down directly when he heard this number, and at that time, the treasury of the United States only had a total of 47,000 tons of silver in storage, and he said in a slightly instructive tone, "Young man. You must know that the treasury uses ounces to calculate silver. ”

In the end, Bell agreed to the Manhattan Project's request and provided a total of 14,700 tons of silver for the Manhattan Project, which accounted for almost one-third of the total storage of the United States' treasury.

Fortunately, the coils can also be recycled. Otherwise, the U.S. treasury would have gone bankrupt for the materials that had been supplied to the Manhattan Project, and the fourteen,700 tons of silver would not be fully repaid until 1970.

Luvaglio's super-luxury laptops are worth millions of dollars using marble, leather and natural wood, as well as diamonds in diamonds and diamonds of rare colors, while the supercomputers used by scientists are often denominated in billions.

Open the list of the most expensive substances in the world, and the top ones are those rare elements that scientists play with, such as plutonium, tritium, californium, and so on, and just a few grams are enough to buy a bunch of gold! Not to mention that in CERN's plan, the production of 100 billion grams of antimatter will cost nearly $6 billion.

$6 billion is just the entire assets of Jack Taylor, who ranked 100th on the global Forbes list last year, that is to say, the entire family property of the world's 100th richest man is only enough to produce 100 billionths of a gram of antimatter;

Hit by this, Mr. Han left in a huff, Lu Qiujian took Xia Xiao back home, and when the two of them were watching TV on the sofa after eating, Xia Xiao was still thinking about what happened just now, "What kind of atomic clock is really so expensive?"

"Yes!" Lu Qiujian pinched her nose and told her how the atomic clock worked, "This small thrust will make the cesium atomic balloon lift up through a microwave cavity filled with microwaves, and then the cesium atomic ball absorbs enough energy to start falling downward, passing through the microwave cavity again, and releasing all the absorbed energy."

Lu Qiujian hugged her to his lap and sat down towards him, "Just repeat the up and down movements many times, and you can determine the exact time!"

Xia Xiao didn't know why his face began to become hot, Lu Qiujian wanted this effect, he took advantage of the situation to remove the cloth that hindered the accurate measurement of time, and began to stuff his own atomic ball into Xia Xiao's microwave cavity, simulating the operation of the atomic clock.
