Chapter 139: The Master's Meeting
Subtitle of this chapter: Mr. Einstein, how do you ......
………………………………………………
When our Master Yuan got out of the car, he met several old acquaintances in front of the Rosewood Hotel.
"Emma, why are you here?"
Miss Pulitzer, who had a big antique camera around her neck, was also slightly stunned and said, "Neo, why are you here too?" Oh......"
"I see." She clapped her hands and said, "You're here to see Mr. Einstein, too, aren't you?" ”
Yuan Yanqian showed a surprised expression and said, "Mr. Einstein? He also lives in rosewood? If you don't tell me, I don't know yet......"
He turned his head to another acquaintance and said, "Mr. Sanders, are you here too?" ”
"Yes, Mr. Yuan. So coincidentally, you also live here? The big reporter of the New York Times was a little suspicious.
Master Yuan said very calmly: "I have lived here for a long time, you can ask Miss Pulitzer to know." I've been living here since I came to Washington last month. Are you here to interview Mr. Einstein too? ”
"Yes, Mr. Yuan......" Mr. Sanders nodded, but his words were immediately interrupted by other reporters.
"Mr. Yuan, do you remember me? I'm a ...... from the New York Herald"
"Mr. Yuan, I'm a ...... from The Washington Post"
"Mr. Yuan......"
"I am ......"
In this way, a group of reporters surrounded Yuan Yan into the revolving door and walked into the lobby.
"Mr. Yuan!" The lobby manager trotted over attentively. HE GREETED IN A LOUD VOICE WHILE WINKING AT YUAN YAN AND SAID, "MR. YUAN, YOURS HANDED OVER MY MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!" ”
“ELL DONE!”
Our Master Yuan praised it with understanding, and took out the wallet with his hand......
The envelope that Frank handed to the archmage was certainly not mistaken, but he deliberately sent it to Einstein.
That card is actually "Card: Mrs. Barton's Friendliness". (See Chapter 119 of Volume II)
"Card: Mrs. Barton's Friendliness" provides a Level 0 Divine Skill: Water Formation.
With this card, he was able to create 2 gallons of clean water that was as drinkable as pure rain. It's really a supreme weapon for home travel, pretending to be a big force, and playing a god stick.
In fact, the card provided by the Master Ball system is a spell-casting prop, which can be used as a magic trap in addition to direct use. As long as the conditions set by Yuan Yanqi are met, the magic in the activated state will be cast.
And the condition he set this time is that the parchment card, as long as someone turns over and looks up again, then the head will be poured with cold water.
By the way, Einstein was very "lucky". Because Master Yuan's 10-point perception can only stimulate divine magic, and he is still a "civilian" who has not yet taken office, he has to make a big subtraction in calculating the effect of spellcasting.
So this water-making technique is a shrunken version, not 2 gallons, only 2 liters, about the pure water of a thermos.
A mere water-making technique is naturally nothing in the various worlds of DND, and the water of a mere thermos is not a big deal, but it is completely different if a thermos of water appears out of thin air in this demon-free world.
Albert Einstein is probably the most aware of how unscientific this kind of creation out of nothing is currently on the Blue Star.
Just by the hot water bottle he was drenched, all the physical theories in the history of mankind could be overturned...... No, this is not explained by physics at all, it can only be understood in a "non-physical" way.
So as soon as the Grand Magus heard the name of the Grey Knight, he jumped up from the couch and shouted, "Mr. Neo-Yuan! ”
Our Mr. Neo-Yuan saw a very familiar historical celebrity rush towards him in a very strange posture.
With a look of surprise on his face, he greeted him and said, "Mr. Albert Einstein, how are you ......?"
"Smack!"
This is naturally the sound of a flashing magnesium lamp.
Miss Emma Pulitzer is now an experienced photojournalist, and Her Excellency the Priestess has a premonition in her heart as soon as she sees "Lord Fool......
OF COURSE, THE MOST IMPORTANT THING IS THAT WHEN MASTER YUAN SAW ANOTHER MASTER JUST NOW, HE WHISPERED IN HER EAR: ARE YOU READY?
This time, she was prepared for a long time, and she really caught up again and took a photo of great historical significance!
"Lot 251 and the final lot in Southby's special 'Emma Pulitzer Photographs of Yuan Yanqi' is the original photograph of "When a Master Meets a Master."
"As you all know, this photo is the first time Albert Einstein and Mr. Yuan Yanqian met. It was April 16, 1921, a Saturday morning, in the lobby of the Washington Rosewood Hotel. ”
"And we all know that before they met, Mr. Einstein was already a big fan of Mr. Yuan."
"As you can see, Mr. Einstein was wearing a pajamas, because he waited for Mr. Yuan in the rosewood lobby all night, and he didn't even want to go back to his room to sleep."
Please see how excited he was when he saw his idol at that time, and he bent down and bowed to Mr. Yuan. And Mr. Yuan Yanqian was very gentlemanly and supported Mr. Einstein. ”
"Reserve price, $25,000."
Well, in fact, Albert Einstein was not so excited that he bowed to Yuan Yanqi, but he lay on the sofa all night, and the blood in his lower limbs was inevitably a little unsmooth. As a result, he limped and almost fell to the ground.
Fortunately, our Master Yuan pulled him.
So the first thing the Grey Knight said when he saw the Archmage was, "Mr. Einstein, how are you ...... Lame?! ”
He thought to himself, I'm not Yuan Shanben...... No, Yuan Benshan, why did you fool Feinstein lame.
The Grand Magus grabbed the Gray Knight's hand tightly and said, "Mr. Yuan, please tell me how exactly you did it?" ”
"Mr. Einstein, I don't understand what you're talking about. What is done how? Yuan Yanqian, who has outstanding acting skills, asked knowingly.
Einstein hurriedly raised the large envelope in his hand and said, "Mr. Yuan, this is it!" ”
"Oh, you said this...... Master Yuan, who finally "reacted", changed his face, his expression turned cold, and his attitude instantly came to a 180-degree reversal.
He let go of his hands, took a step back, and said in a detached tone, "Mr. Einstein, I don't understand what you're asking. But this is a public place, and we are all public figures, so it is better to maintain a public image. ”
The Grey Knight paused, stared into the Grand Magus's eyes, and said in an accentuated tone, "I think you should be able to understand what I mean!" ”
Yuan Yanqian bowed slightly and said, "Mr. Einstein, please be considerate." I spent last night in the car and am now very tired and hungry. So ......"
"Ladies and gentlemen...... I lost my company first. He raised his hat again, nodded to the reporters around him, and walked straight into the elevator with his secretary and driver.
"Mr. Yuan......"
When Einstein tried to follow, he was overwhelmed by the group of reporters around him.
"Mr. Einstein, how did you meet Mr. Yuan?"
"Mr. Einstein, may I ask Mr. Yuan how you did it, what is this doing?"
"Mr. Einstein, did you live in rosewood for Mr. Yuan?"
"Mr. Einstein, may I ask ......?"
The Great Demon Master also came back to his senses at this time, and understood the "meaning" of what Master Yuan said, how could last night's incident be discussed in such a large audience?
He sighed in his heart, no wonder people have that attitude, it turns out that I was really too impulsive, so now I have to say so......
"Actually, I only met Mr. Yuan through him. I had the pleasure of reading several of his science fiction books last night, and I deeply admired his literary attainments and scientific literacy. He should be one of the finest science fiction writers today...... Well, I personally think one of them can be removed!"
"Actually, when I asked Mr. Yuan how he did it, I asked him how he wrote so wonderfully. In particular, the prediction of the direction of technological development has inspired me greatly. I think if he were a scientist, he would be a very good scientist...... Well, maybe even better than me! ”
"Actually, it should be a coincidence that we all stayed in rosewood. Luckily I stayed in this hotel, otherwise how could I have read such a brilliant work? ”
Einstein is now also a veteran of dealing with the media, and after a few casual words, with the help of the hotel staff, he got rid of the reporters and entered another elevator.
However, the Archmagus did not expect that a few words he casually dealt with would take the Grey Knight's literary status from the stage of "a rising star in British and American literature" to become "a shining omen of the death of Western literature...... Well, Demon Star"!
"Tuk, tuk, tuk!"
Einstein was a little apprehensive at the moment, like a primary school student going to see his homeroom teacher, but he still mustered up the courage to knock on Yuan Yanqi's door.
The cute little brunette secretary opened the door and greeted him unsurprisingly, "Hello, Mr. Einstein." The boss said that he is going to rest now, and it is not convenient to meet with you, so please go back first. ”
The Archmage tried to fight for it, "But, ma'am. I have ......"
"By the way, you've got his stuff!" Miss Morman held out her hand and said, "Please give it to me." ”
Einstein looked down at the large envelope in his hand, hesitated for a moment before handing it to the female secretary with a little reluctance.
"Thank you, Mr. Einstein." The female secretary turned around and took out a sample book and said, "The boss said that if you don't dislike it, he has a new book to give you, please give him some valuable advice." ”
"Disliked? How is that possible! The Great Demon Master waved his hand again and again, "And how can I have the level to give advice to Mr. Yuan?" ”
"Hee-hee......" Miss Morman chuckled and handed over the book, "Mr. Einstein, here you go." ”
"Thank you." Albert Einstein took the book and looked at the cover, "All Quiet on the estern Front......"
"Isn't this science fiction?"
"Phew!"
"Well......" was a little disappointed that at the same time as the Grand Magister asked, the female secretary had already closed the door.
He had no choice but to shake his head and go upstairs to his room with the freshly baked copy of "All Quiet on the Western Front......
"Albert, where have you been? Elsa and I were going to look for you. ”
"Oh my God, dear, why did you run out in your pajamas? And why is your face so ugly, didn't you sleep last night? ”
"Albert, did you forget? You're going to give a lecture at the National Academy of Sciences in the afternoon! ”
Seeing him enter the house, Mrs. Einstein and Mr. Weizmann both asked with anxious expressions.
"I, I, I ......" Rao is Great Magister was as deep as the sea, and he didn't know how to tell his wife and traveling companions about it, so he had to change the subject and say, "I'd better go to sleep first!" ”
But the reporters downstairs have all decided how to tell their readers about it.
Mr. Sanders, who was a very professional journalist, was the first to turn around and walk to the phone in the lobby, and in just a few steps he had already prepared this article.
"Switchboard, please connect to The New York Times."
"Reception, please refer to the Department of Current Affairs."
"It's me, please record. The title is "The Master of Literature Gives Respect to the Master of Science......"
"By the way, don't forget that the editor-in-chief of Carl Van Anda put this article on the front page of today's evening newspaper!"
Miss Emma Pulitzer was even more straightforward, shoved the camera into her assistant's hand, and told very neatly: "You should train back to New York now, and try to get this picture on the front page of today's evening newspaper of Le Monde!" ”
The title is "German Physicists Bow Down in China...... No, it's in front of American writers. ”
Well, other journalists thought about it in a similar way.
And the key reason why they will automatically praise Yuan Yanqian is because these American journalists feel that "NY's NY" is their "own people".
Honestly, it's normal for them to think this way.
Except for the color of his skin, our Master Yuan looked a lot like the Americans at that time. More precisely, the Chinese in 2020 and the Americans in 1920 in many ways, especially in "indescribable, only by heart." "It's very similar in temperament.
For example, they were all regarded by old Europe as "rich hillbillies", "vulgar nouveau riche" and "worst travelers".
The last laurel was worn by the Americans for a full hundred years, until the Seris traveled abroad on a large scale. In fact, the performance of the devil stick and the bazi when they first set off the tide of traveling abroad was not much stronger than the competition, but they were few and did not receive so much attention.
For example, they all have some inferiority complex in their own culture, but they are a little proud of their own economy. At the same time, they all have a little admiration for the advanced powers, but also a little contempt. It's something like "you're so awesome that you can't borrow money from me".
That's right, a hundred years ago, the United States was a big creditor in the world, and a hundred years later, China became a big creditor of the United States.
As a time-traveler who knows the course of history, Yuan Yanqian still has a little awe of the United States, after all, the United States can still casually send three aircraft carrier fleets to beat the world police of the entire Blue Star a hundred years later.
But he looked down on the old Europe. Anyway, in his opinion, Europa will either be inserted by the US imperialists or the Soviet Union in the future, and in the end, it may be ......
Ahem, ahem, anyway, this attitude is very obvious in his articles and deeds.
So as long as Americans know a little about him, they will feel that this guy said what was in his heart, which made them subconsciously ignore Master Yuan's race.
Thus, the Seris man who has come since 2017 is about to become the pride of America in 1921!

Oh yes, finally recommending it again!
In order to thank the patients for their support, Murong assured...... Well, let's try to add it next week.
