Chapter 743: Professor Rutherford

Imperial University

The magnificent pavilion building is hidden between the green waters of the Tianshan Mountains, and at the school gate is a white marble sculpture of one left and one right, standing on the Sumeru seat, which is intended to facilitate the writing of admonitions, needle the disadvantages of the times, and lead the wind of open thinking.

At the back end of it is a tall two-storey Tang-style palace tower, with four powerful characters "Imperial University" written on it, which is written by King Li Fushou himself, which looks majestic and unique.

Walking into it, the famous trees transplanted in the college are everywhere, and the ancient plaques can be seen from time to time in the deep courtyard; "Sven Zaiz", "Confucianism", "Combination of Chinese and Western, Integration", "Ten Thousand Teachers" and so on, convey the wordless atmosphere of Confucianism and calligraphy, and the rich campus atmosphere is blowing in the face.

The president of the Imperial University is Wu Mozhou, who has just stepped down from the important post of governor of Africa, and Wu Mozhou, the earl of Fuyuan, is a very virtuous man with outstanding prestige in the political, business, and academic circles, and is the best choice to serve as the president.

Following his resignation, the Provisional Administrative Body of the Governor of Africa was abolished, and the Mozambican states were placed directly under the Cabinet, reducing unnecessary levels of leadership and further enhancing administrative efficiency once social development was on track.

King Li Fushou and his entourage entered the campus in three black crown cars, low-key and restrained, and quietly arrived near the laboratory building of the Department of Physics in the depths of the campus.

Principal Wu Mozhou was already waiting here, and beside him stood a tall intellectual, with a white face, this person was named Cai Tinggan, a native of Xiangshan, Guangdong, and was the second batch of young children to study in the United States.

In 1881, after the Qing court ordered the withdrawal of all the children studying in the United States, Cai Tinggan was transferred back to China and assigned to study in the "Dagu Mine School", and later participated in the "Sino-French War" and "First Sino-Japanese Naval Battle".

Dissatisfied with the corruption and incompetence of the Qing court, and the darkness of the officialdom, Cai Ting was angry and traveled south to Australia to seek a place to practice his life ideals, and his talent was deeply appreciated by Foreign Minister Tang Zhaoyi, who successively served as diplomatic representative in French Saigon and minister in Fuso.

After the establishment of Imperial University, he was recommended to the post of Director of Education.

The three black crown sedans stopped smoothly one after another, and several strong men in young clothes got out of the car, and their eyes were sharp to probe around, and then they saw Li Fushou get out of the car, and Wu Mozhou and Cai Tinggan hurriedly stepped forward to salute.

"Brother Mozhou doesn't need to be polite, Tinggan is also an old acquaintance, today I will be guided by the two of you, and I will take a look around the campus casually." Li Fushou's attitude is very modest, and he looks like a gentleman who is as gentle as jade.

To his current high status, he is regarded as a god-like figure by the citizens of the kingdom, and the leader of all the soldiers who unswervingly follow, every word and smile is the grace of rain and dew.

"The old minister is afraid, but he has not been in office for a long time, and the foreign teachers on the campus still don't know everything, and he is worried that it will hurt His Majesty's big things, so I ask the Minister of Education Cai Tinggan to accompany him and respectfully ask Your Majesty to take a look."

"Brother Mozhou is serious, then let's talk while walking."

Li Fushou talked and laughed, and took the lead in moving forward, Wu Mozhou and Cai Tinggan were half a position behind, and followed behind them step by step.

The laboratory building of the Department of Physics is a two-storey Tang-style building located on the shore of Xiangmi Lake, and the colonnade is made of thick teak, and the eaves of the corridor are decorated with colorful paintings, which is very oriental charm.

The ancient trees on both sides are towering to the sky, and the blue waves of a lake are rippling at the door, and the end is a good scenery.

As soon as a group of more than ten people walked to the front of the experimental building, they saw a blonde-haired and blue-eyed middle-aged man in a white coat walking out with a Chinese scientific research assistant.

Cai Tinggan hurriedly stepped forward to stop the visitor; "Professor Rutherford, please wait a minute, this ......"

"Your Majesty......"

At this moment, Professor Rutherford exclaimed in surprise and delight, even if he was a scholar who had been buried in the laboratory for many years, he recognized His Majesty's tall figure.

Without it, in the middle hall of the small living room of the gate of the kingdom, as well as the center of the auditorium of the Imperial University, the gold and silver oceans and the banknotes are printed with the portrait of His Majesty the King or wearing a military uniform or a crown, which can be said to be the most recognizable spiritual totem of the kingdom, and the noble temperament that stands out from the crowd is difficult to recognize.

"Hello Mr. Professor, I would like to welcome you to the Imperial University family to jointly research new technologies and disseminate knowledge, and I deeply appreciate your efforts." Li Fushou replied with a smile.

"It is my pleasure to serve you, Your Majesty."

The guess in his heart was confirmed, and Professor Rutherford seemed a little overwhelmed in the face of the great surprise, and only reacted when he was reminded by his assistant, respectfully touching his chest with one hand, and bowing deeply to show respect.

A few pleasantries

Professor Rutherford departed, dizzy with his feet on the cotton balls, and his heart was already filled with great glory.

This is a wise monarch who single-handedly built a vast empire, and the citizens of the Ocean Kingdom, including Professor Rutherford, have a deep respect for the monarch as a saint walking on earth.

Don't forget, this was a time of extreme feudal superstition.

Li Fushou was also very satisfied, but he didn't expect to meet a big man just after he arrived at the experimental building of the physics department, and now he was more interested in how many talents the Imperial University had recruited.

Cai Tinggan explained in a whisper beside him;

"Your Majesty;

Professor Rutherford, who was appointed as the deputy head of the Department of Physics, was born into a modest family in Nelson, New Zealand, to handicraft parents.

Rutherford grew up in New Zealand before attending Canterbury College in New Zealand and then the UK.

At the age of 23, he obtained three degrees, namely a Bachelor of Arts, a Master of Arts, and a Bachelor of Science.

Professor Rutherford caught our attention in his research on the electron nucleus, he was the physicist who first proposed the concept of radioactive half-life, and experimentally confirmed that radioactivity involves the transmutation from one element to another.

During his time at the university, Professor Rutherford classified radioactive materials into α rays and β rays according to their penetrating ability, and this scientific research confirmed that the former was helium ions, and because of its epoch-making achievements, it attracted the attention of the Imperial Academy of Sciences, and it is being considered to be absorbed as an academician. ”

Listening to Cai Tinggan's introduction, Li Fushou nodded slightly as he walked, he knew that the Professor Mu Ne who had just passed was far from that simple.

Known as the founder of atomic physics, Professor Rutherford is the father of nuclear physics, who has made many pioneering achievements and trained a large number of the world's top nuclear physicists.

The laboratory where he worked is known as the "Nobel Laureate Kindergarten", and this is where this man is so awesome.

This guy is a humanoid self-propelled little sun, wherever he goes, he will scatter the light, and those who get close will be ignited, thus becoming one of the world's top scientists.

Twenty years later, it was Professor Rutherford who found the right and only correct way to artificially fry, which was to bombard the nucleus with particles or γ rays to cause a nuclear reaction, and this method was soon popularized and eventually the "Little Boy" was born......

Dana is definitely not inferior to the Curie couple in the science and technology industry, and there is only one technology giant in that small place in New Zealand in a hundred years.

Li Fushou was in a good mood and thought about it;

How many people are there in this small part of New Zealand now, and are there more than 200,000?

Because of his secret commitment to Britain, Li Fushou has never been embarrassed to do anything to New Zealand, a small place that is more remote than Australia, almost forgotten by the world, with only about 100,000 people in its original history.

Today, about half of New Zealand's population is Chinese immigrants, a total of about 200,000 people, and Australia stipulates that immigrants to New Zealand must have a wealth of more than 1,000 gold oceans, which restricts the willingness of most Chinese immigrants.

But it is precisely because of this that it has attracted the attention of many wealthy groups.

New Zealand has natural beauty and fertile land that is not inferior to Australia, and it is also a world-class pasture, but it is a little smaller.

With a medium-sized woollen mill of 4,400 people in the region, Australian Wool Corporation is the largest enterprise in the region and half of New Zealand's finances.

Wealthy Chinese are very popular in New Zealand, where they can easily realize their dream of private ranching, and as long as they have the money, they can buy large tracts of land, with no restrictions.

But this is not the case in Australia, where New South Wales and Victoria have begun to restrict the development of private farms, and the only way to open private farms is in northern Queensland, or in more remote South Australia.

As far away as Western Australia, that place is arid and inhospitable, and no one wants to go even if they are killed.

In comparison, immigrating to New Zealand is quite attractive.

Because New Zealand and Australia's Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane and other big cities, there are two cruises a week, and it takes three days to get on the cruise, which is not much farther than in Australia.

If you think about it, it's three days north from Brisbane to Darwin, three days south to Melbourne and four days to Adelaide.

Count it this way

It feels like New Zealand is not far away, not to mention the fertile fields, pleasant climate in all seasons, beautiful scenery and simple people, it is a good place to live and work in peace and contentment.

In addition, there is another advantage, the white girls there have no resistance to marrying Chinese, because these Chinese immigrants are old and rich, and they came to buy the rancher's property, can they have no money?

In the face of the infinite charm of money, all people of all races and skin colors are a fart, and simple New Zealanders don't care about those.

There is no other industry in New Zealand except woollen mills, and Rutherford's parents are both handicraftsmen, that is, leather craftsmen and blacksmiths, so more than ninety percent of farmers and herdsmen are illiterate.

They only recognize one reason, and the girl has a good life when she marries.

So

After the high-end Chinese immigrants entered New Zealand, they vigorously picked local white girls to marry back home, and the problem came again after a long time.

There are only so many people in New Zealand, and 10,000 or 20,000 young women of school age have died, and if you have one more person, there will be one less, and the young white guys will have to be beaten up, so as to form a strong crowding out effect.

Ocean Kingdom has implemented visa-free and equal treatment for New Zealand, allowing it to come and go freely.

Therefore, many New Zealand Caucasian adult men will come to Australia in search of development opportunities, and Professor Rutherford is one of them, where he found a virtuous Chinese female student to marry and start a family, and live quite happily.

Ahem......

New Zealand's affairs are put on the table for the time being, anyway, this place is like ripe fruit, and it will still fall into the hands when the time comes, and now it is not possible to engage in friction with Britain for this matter, which is not conducive to the overall situation.

Li Fushou coughed lightly, raised his head and strode into the laboratory with high spirits......
