The decision has been made, but it will take more time to implement. An institution is not something that can be conjured up with a breath. It took time to prepare all kinds of personnel and supplies, and many things to be arranged for the institute in Paris, so it was not until the middle of the rainy month that Joseph was able to prepare for Toulon.

If only research is concerned, Lavoisier would be in charge of the institute in Paris. However, taking into account Lavoisier's status as a "prisoner", and taking into account some of Lavoisier's minor problems, it is not possible to say that this idea could not have been passed by the "National Salvation Committee", even with Joseph himself.

In addition, Laplace also wanted to join the "Military Technical Research Institute", but considering that Laplace was very close to certain people, Joseph kept Mr. Laplace out of the Institute on the grounds that he was more suitable for theoretical research than specific technical research, and of course it was even more impossible for him to be in charge of the research institute.

So, the person who succeeded Joseph and temporarily took charge of the institute in Paris became Monge.

In terms of academic status alone, Monri naturally cannot be compared with the two in front of him. But Monge himself was a man of the army, loyal and reliable, and had a good relationship with Joseph. So Joseph didn't hesitate to recommend him to Kano.

Kano was also very pleased with the candidate, Monge was his teacher, and he knew that he was a very reliable person. Although it seems that he is not comparable to Joseph in terms of ability. But this also means that his ability to spend money is certainly not as good as Joseph's. Every day these days, he chased after Robespierre's ass for money, and then as soon as he returned, Joseph chased his ass for money. Now, perhaps, we can breathe a sigh of relief.

Kano breathed a sigh of relief, but in the south, another person, no, another group of people gasped together. This group were, of course, Joseph's unreliable brothers and sisters.

"Lucien, Lucien......" Napoleon shouted.

"What is it here?" Lucien ran in from outside, sweaty.

"What are you doing?" Napoleon asked.

"It's nothing, it's just to accompany Polina outside for a walk." Lucien hadn't realized that something didn't seem quite right.

"Ah, Lucien." Napoleon suddenly laughed, "I'm going to surprise you, want to know?" ”

At this time, Polina walked in with a small umbrella with an ivory handle, and just as she heard Napoleon's words, she quickly asked, "What is the surprise?" Napoleon, tell me quickly, what is the surprise? ”

Napoleon, however, did not go any further, but changed the subject and asked, "Lucien, how much did you do the stack of exercises that Joseph gave you when you came to the south?" ”

"I've done a lot," said Lucien, "and rest assured, we'll be able to do it before we return to Paris." What the hell are you talking about......"

Napoleon did not speak, but just stared at Lucien and smiled.

Lucien could tell from Napoleon's smile that something was wrong, and hesitated to ask, "What's wrong?" Napoleon, what do you mean? ”

"I'm going to surprise you." Napoleon said, "Joseph will soon come to Toulon." Can't think of it, right? Surprised, surprised? ”

"What?" Lucien was stunned for a moment, "How is it possible...... Joseph wasn't busy ......"

"Surprise, huh? Accidental, right? Napoleon smiled maliciously, "The army is going to build a naval technical institute in Toulon, and Joseph has come to take charge of this work for the time being." But it doesn't matter, you've already done a lot of exercises anyway, and although you're not done yet, it's enough to deal with it, right? ”

"Damn it!" Lucien said, "What's the surprise of TM called TM?" Napoleon, you explain, what is this tm called surprise? ”

"Why, you haven't even touched a pen yet, have you?" Napoleon smiled, "Lucien, you should thank me for providing you with the news in a timely manner." Otherwise...... Hehe...... Well, this news is still theoretically highly classified. In terms of secrecy alone, you shouldn't know at all. Come and thank me! ”

"Napoleon, Joseph him...... When will he arrive? Lucien forcibly suppressed the fear in his heart and hurriedly asked.

"Rainy Moon Hare Day, you still have three days to go." Napoleon replied.

"Hooray!" Lucien shouted, and quickly turned his head and ran upstairs.

Napoleon looked at Lucien's back and couldn't help but shake his head. This guy is so unreliable, why did he vouch for him in the first place?

"Napoleon......" said Polina.

"Well, what's wrong?" Napoleon asked.

Joseph ...... Joseph is really that terrible...... Our business, will not ...... It won't ......," Polina said intermittently, obviously nervous as well.

"Don't worry!" Napoleon couldn't help but reach out and rub Polina's head, "Joseph won't know about us." ”

The success in frightening Lucien made Napoleon a little happy, and at noon he ate an extra loaf of bread. As for Lucien, he didn't come downstairs to eat at all. As a result, Letizia had to take the bread and milk to him and send him to the study.

Lucien didn't come down for lunch at noon, and he didn't come down for dinner in the evening. At about ten o'clock in the evening, Napoleon was sleeping soundly, (in this era there is no glory of kings, and there is no turret to eat chicken, and there is not even an electric light.) Therefore, people in this era generally have a good habit of going to bed early and getting up early. Suddenly, he felt someone gently shaking his arm.

"Who?" Napoleon opened his eyes.

"Ah, it's me, Lucien."

"Hell, what time is it? What are you doing? "Napoleon was upset.

"Napoleon, there are several questions, I will not do ...... You're going to help me......"

"Hell of the day, can't you ask again tomorrow?"

"Tomorrow, tomorrow when it's dawn, maybe you don't know where you're going." Lucien said, "You're not like your mother, you can find someone at any time." ”

"Go, go! I'm going to sleep! I'll talk about it tomorrow night at dinner! Napoleon said.

"Napoleon, will you help......," said Lucien, "these questions are difficult, and you will read them tomorrow for dinner, and what shall I do if you cannot do them then?" You take a look at it first, and you have an impression in your heart, and think about it when you have time......"

"How can there be a question that I can't do?" Napoleon said this on his lips, but in his heart he thought: "Joseph, this guy is the most hateful when he comes up with the problem." You can't infer him from a normal person's way of thinking, maybe this guy will really leave Lucien with a really difficult question or two. ”

"Show it to me." Napoleon said.

"Okay, you wait, I'll help you light the candle first."

……

"Isn't that easy? Lucien, you are really ...... I really don't know, you are also my brother and Joseph, how can you be so stupid...... You see, you're making a secondary line here...... And then ...... And then ...... Well, you wait for me to think about it...... It doesn't make sense, it makes sense that Joseph should not need to use this kind of knowledge to give you the question...... Anyway, um, Lucien, let's take another approach, um, let's build a coordinate system here first...... Okay, do you understand? ”

"No, I didn't understand at all...... "Lucien's eyes were full of mosquito coils.

……

Three days later, Joseph came to Marseille. He first went home to see his mother and several other siblings. My mother is in good condition, although she is a little older, but her health is still great. Several brothers and sisters are also not bad, especially the younger sisters, who are getting more and more beautiful. It's just that maybe because I've grown up, and because I've been away from home for a longer time, my sisters seem to have some estrangement from me, and it's not as intimate as before. Even Polina, who used to like to cling to herself or Napoleon, seems to be a little recognized, and always seems to be a little hiding from herself.

"Girls grow up like this." Joseph said this to himself. Then he told Napoleon: "I cannot stay long in Marseille, and tomorrow morning I will leave for Toulon." I have also brought an order to Monsieur Fouché, and you will find someone to take me to visit him in a moment. ”

Joseph did not stay long at home and went out to find Fuche. The Naval Institute in Toulon needed his help on many matters, especially in matters of security and secrecy. Joseph knew that Fouché had recently fallen ill, but for the sake of the revolution, he could only barely support himself.

As soon as Joseph went out, several people let out a long breath.

"Lucien, what are you nervous about? Aren't your homework all done? Polina asked.

"Yes, it's done, but there are some topics that Napoleon did, and he didn't speak well, and I didn't understand it too well. If Joseph asked, it is estimated that he would have to go abroad to ......"

Fouché had been prepared for Joseph's visit, for he had been informed several days beforehand. Fouché was very satisfied with this task, because he did not have to worry about being called back to Paris at the most dangerous time. Although Fouché has been in the provinces, he has been keeping an eye on the movements in Paris, and in his opinion, Paris will be very dangerous in the next month or two.

Joseph was also pleased with the performance of Joseph, the other person who hosted him. Although Fouché only knew about the relevant things a few days in advance, within a few days, he came up with several sets of plans to discuss with himself, and these plans were very good, and it can be seen that Fouché is a very capable and meticulous person.

Joseph and another Joseph studied the plan seriously, and before they knew it, it was already dark.

"Ah, it's so late?" Coming out of Foucher's place, Joseph looked at the sky and thought, "I was going to go back and check on Lucien's schoolwork, but I'm afraid he was already asleep by this time, right?" I'm leaving early tomorrow morning...... Forget it, let's check it later, anyway, Toulon is so far away from Marseille, are you afraid that you won't have a chance......"
