"Acquaintance in Weimo, I came to send my old friend on the last ......"

Emperor Richard's words hit the tears of the Countess Yin Lizabeth Hart Jarvis and Susanna's mother and daughter, and the tears broke down instantly.

After a few short words

Richard personally came to the family table in the first row, and comforted the Countess and her daughter, which made people feel warm and cordial.

In such close contact with His Majesty the Emperor, Brigadier General Fan Pengju was nervous and difficult to breathe, under the vigilant gaze of dozens of pairs of eyes around him, he did not dare to move, but just raised his hand and saluted with a solemn expression; "Humble Fan Peng raised an audience to His Majesty Sheng'an."

"Well, there's still a long way to go, let's mourn!"

Richard glanced at the excited young general, bowed slightly, and then hurried away.

"We send your majesty, long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

All the ladies and gentlemen of high society in the church bent down in unison, and waited until His Majesty's figure walked out of the church, and then they raised themselves and talked to each other excitedly.

I was so lucky to be able to meet His Majesty's face in the church, which was a boast to all of you!

Although His Majesty the Emperor often visited the provinces of the empire and went deep into the countryside to observe the people's feelings, the empire was so large and the population was so large that it was extremely difficult for ordinary upper-class nobles to have the opportunity to see it.

At most, you can only see the figure of Mohu Lake from a distance at the Great Dynasty Meeting, let alone so close.

This chance encounter is enough for everyone present to blow for a whole year.

This time, His Majesty traveled in a low-key manner, coming and going faster.

However, the officers and men of the Imperial Janissary Guard, who were in charge of the guards, remained on high alert until His Majesty the Emperor got into a special heavy bulletproof carriage, and Lieutenant General Li Wu breathed a long sigh of relief. With a wave of his hand, he ordered "close the team", and he got into an ordinary carriage without any signs, and quickly left the carriage in front of him.

The people in charge of His Majesty's close protection are all officers, and almost all of them have a unique job, and they are the masters of Ouchi who can only enter after many rounds of selection.

But times are different, and perhaps a heavy machine gun mounted at a distance of 300 meters can incur heavy casualties, which puts more pressure on the shoulders of the Royal Praetorian Guard, and every time His Majesty travels, they are like a great enemy, and they dare not neglect for a moment.

A convoy of horses and horses quickly headed in the direction of the University of California, alerted along the way.

Now that the emperor is out of the palace, it will not be just to mourn Colt, an old friend, and the next destination is the Nobel Laboratory at the University of California.

In the carriage

Director Zheng Yuan sat on the brocade bench opposite with half of his buttocks sideways, and respectfully reported on the inheritance of the Earl Samuel-Colt family, including the side branch bloodline intended to get involved in the title inheritance and the huge inheritance.

Richard listened to the report with his eyes slightly closed, and then did not say anything, but looked out the window with no interest.

This kind of trivial matter is too cheap to ask about it with the dignity of the emperor.

Director Zheng Yuan finished the introduction in a few words, and then led the topic to the many new inventions of the Nobel Laboratory, in his introduction;

Alfred Bernhard Nobel, a well-known professor in the Department of Chemistry at the University of California, was a prolific and energetic inventor who had 193 patents so far for 193 inventions related to the manufacture of military equipment, the improvement of textile machinery and diatomaceous earth explosives, and wrote a play and many poems.

During his tenure at the Colt Arms Company, Professor Nobel presided over and invented the nitroglycerin explosive, a revolutionary yellow high explosive that was based on which the Colt Chemical Industries Company was formed.

After that, Professor Nobel turned to the University of California, personally presided over the Nobel Laboratory, and trained more than 30 Chinese chemical experts as assistants, invented the detonator in 1857, and invented diatomaceous earth explosives in 1859, which further enhanced the stability of high explosives.

Diatomaceous earth explosives can absorb three times more nitroglycerin than itself, and can be made into "diatomaceous earth explosives" with moderate hardness and softness like clay, and this product has become the cornerstone of the newly established Nobel Chemical Company

Because of the excellent performance of this product, Nobel Chemical Company has grown rapidly and developed into a new star in the chemical field that can compete with Colt Chemical Company, and the future prospects are extremely promising.

Nobel Chemical Company is also a project invested by the Royal Ministry of Internal Affairs, which is at the top level of science and technology in the world today, and the detonators and diatomaceous earth explosives have obtained the invention patents of the Tang Empire, and have a broad market in the world.

The Royal Navy alone has an order of 7.5 million pounds, in addition to large orders from France, Italy, Prussia, the Netherlands, Belgium and other countries, indicating that the international market has widely accepted the excellent performance of diatomaceous earth explosives and is willing to pay for them.

"He also designed and produced a chicken and duck slaughtering production line?" Richard asked, surprised.

Director Zheng Yuan hurriedly flipped through the information in his hand, and after stopping on a certain page, he looked at it before replying;

"Back to Your Majesty's words, it is true.

Mr. Nobel likes to eat fried chicken wings and fried chicken legs very much, but he is dissatisfied with the low efficiency of the corresponding manual slaughtering of chickens and ducks, so he personally presided over a chicken and duck slaughtering production line, which greatly improved the production efficiency.

Besides

Mr. Nobel has a wide range of interests in literature, art and philosophy, and has written two books, "The Brightest Africa" and "Sisters".

He was very fascinated by the English poet Xuelai, and tried to create an autobiographical long poem "A Riddle", the specific level of which has been reviewed by literary scholars, and can only be said to be eye-catching, without any literary brilliance and eye-catching.

Nobel also liked philosophy closely related to literature, and preferred the positivist philosophy of the British philosopher Herbert Spencer, and tried to achieve something in this regard, but the specific progress is unknown.

Now it seems

Professor Nobel is very talented in invention, he obtained a patent at the end of last year for a glass press nozzle with fine holes, which has a great impact on promoting the production efficiency of the textile industry and makes domestic textile factories leap into the advanced ranks.

In addition, Professor Nobel also participated in the improvement of complete sets of equipment of the Coastal Fertilizer Company and the optimization of the reactor of key equipment in petrochemical plants, which played an important role in promoting scientific and technological innovation in the above fields.

The most remarkable result is that the production efficiency of the Coastal Fertilizer Company has increased by 72%, and the output of the key equipment reactor of the petrochemical plant has increased by more than 40% after the optimized design of the reactor, and the economic benefits are very significant......"

Listening to Director Zheng Yuan's introduction, Richard couldn't help but secretly speak, he never knew that Nobel was so bullish, and he had time to write a few books while inventing high-yielding inventions, and the inventions and creations also involved manufacturing and medical industries, and the results were remarkable.

The Nobel professor was also involved in the design of the last public transport solution solicited by the government, which also used electricity, but his design was more advanced and expensive, and the final plan was not adopted.

Professor Nobel's electric bus is a joint scheme of batteries and gasoline generators, eliminating the need for a tram with long pigtails on the top of the head, and is 100 years ahead of the world's technology.

As far as the current level of science and technology is concerned, the storage capacity of the battery, the number of charging and discharging, and the efficiency, reliability and maintainability of the gasoline engine driving the generator have great technical difficulties to be solved, which is too advanced.

Today, Professor Nobel is a member of the Royal Academy of Sciences, a permanent member of the Chang'an Federation of Scientists, the director of the Department of Chemistry at the University of California, the host of the Nobel Laboratory, a director and one of the major shareholders of the Nobel Chemical Company, and one of the most prominent names in the scientific community of the Tang Empire.

At the beginning, Count Colt was very optimistic about him, and even wanted to marry his baby daughter Suzanne to Nobel, which was really a unique vision, and he had already seen the unlimited potential of this young man, and he was the same kind of person as himself.

Unfortunately, Suzanne did not call the shy white researcher, but she fell in love with a Chinese Praetorian Guard officer......

Half an hour later

Nobel Laboratory

The Nobel Laboratory is located in a remote corner of the University of California, surrounded by greenery, elegant and quiet, next to a small pond about three acres in size, and is composed of more than a dozen buildings of high and low buildings.

In addition to the special chemical research and development building, the Nobel laboratory also has research laboratories in machinery, textiles, explosives, electric power, medicine, material mechanics, etc., as well as a welding workshop for the study of welding processes and material surface hardening technology, and even a small philosophical club.

Professor Nobel often discusses philosophical issues with his lab assistants here, debates on philosophical topics of interest, collides with sparks of ideas, and even enjoys it after dinner.

When His Majesty the Emperor arrived, Professor Nobel was in the welding workshop carefully observing a section of the welding surface of a water pipe with a microscope, and seeing his attentive expression, Richard waved his hand not to disturb others, and stood quietly and waited.

I waited for more than 10 minutes.

Professor Nobel was completely immersed in his own observation of the microcosm, and in his eyes, the welded water pipe workpiece showed a wonderful crystalline change, and the laws contained in it were fascinating.

"Oh God...... I don't know Your Majesty, Your Majesty ......" When Professor Nobel raised his head and found His Majesty the Emperor standing quietly beside him, he immediately jumped up in fright.

"It's okay, I respect Mr. Professor's rigorous attitude towards science, so it's okay to wait a while." Richard waved his hand kindly and said casually; "I saw two cars parked at the door, it seems that Mr. Professor has a wide range of hobbies?"

He likes these top scientists who have contributed their wisdom and wisdom to the Tang Empire from the bottom of his heart, and is willing to provide them with all conveniences to promote the development of science and technology in the empire, and more and more new technologies and inventions are born.

"Yes, Your Majesty, I quite appreciate this genius invention." As soon as he spoke of the car at the door, Professor Nobel's interest was aroused, and he bowed with one hand to his chest and said;

"Lately, I've been using a car to get back and forth from my home to the lab and to the classroom, and it's a great invention that has changed the way people get around and the way they live.

So during this time, I often think about how to improve the car so that it is faster and safer, runs more smoothly, is more labor-saving and has a certain economy, so that many people can afford to buy it.

After careful consideration

I think there are two aspects that should be the future development direction of automobiles.

The first is the lightening and downsizing of automobile power, and the diesel engine is still too bulky and the fuel conversion efficiency is not high, so it is not very suitable for the driving method of the car.

In my opinion, gasoline engines are easier to lighten and downsized, and the flammable and explosive characteristics of gasoline should be the general direction of the future development of automobile power.

The second is the comprehensive optimization of automobile performance, the solution should also start from the mechanical design, only the genius design can solve the problems I said, which involves the specific car body bearing structure, power transmission connection and disengagement, shock absorption and walking mechanism and a series of mechanical design, is indeed a fascinating research field! ”

Seeing Mr. Nobel's unstoppable interest as soon as he talked about it, Richard smiled tolerantly, smiling like an old fox who was about to sell the big fat sheep in front of him, and squeezed out the value of this genius of invention as much as possible.

The automotive industry is a very good entry point, and the resulting upgrading of the entire industrial chain and the huge social benefits are simply exciting.

If it is developed decades in advance, the Tang Empire will not worry about having no core pillar industries.

As far as the current level of science and technology is concerned, it has reached the period of explosive growth of invention and creation in the late stage of the first industrial revolution, and all kinds of new inventions that will affect the future life of human society have flourished in this stage.

Only by solving the mechanical problems, the development of the automobile industry can be more mature and reach a degree suitable for promotion.

"What you said is very good, Mr. Professor, although the car is now just a plaything of the aristocracy, its great convenience and low cost in travel, has a strong promotion value, and I want to be optimistic about this." The smile on Richard's face became more and more amiable, and he said step by step;

"Whenever I think that Chinese people can travel by car, the wide road is full of traffic, I have breakfast in Chang'an City in the morning, drive all the way south, and enjoy the beautiful night in Los Angeles in the evening, what a fascinating future scene it should be?

The people who created all this will surely be remembered forever in the annals of history because of their profound impact on the future life of mankind.

Mr. Professor, if you are interested enough, I will set up a joint research team of hundreds of experts for you to solve all the problems related to mechanical design in the development of automobiles.

How is it, are you willing to accompany me crazy? ”

If this is the case, Nobel will have no regrets about his wish to benefit mankind in this life. Thank you Your Majesty for this precious opportunity, and I am willing to dedicate all my wisdom and wisdom to accomplish it with all my life's strength. Sure enough, Professor Nobel, who was relatively simple-minded, took the bait as soon as he teased, and his eyes burned with a burning desire to invent and create, and that enthusiasm could not be suppressed.

It's done, and finally gave this genius a whole job for the inventor, he shouldn't have the spare time to write scripts and study philosophical problems, right?

It's a waste to use it in those fields!
