134 Invitation of the Duke of York

Plexiglass was made, but there were still many things that Chen Muwu needed to do after that.

Because it was his first time making it and he had little experience, he spent a few more days polishing the surface of the glass, then cutting it into several pieces of equal size, and packing them into the backpack he carried with him along with the remaining scraps.

In fact, these last few things can be handed over to skilled workers to do, but Chen Muwu is afraid that he will leak out at the last moment and fall short, so he does everything himself.

Old Prague was not very interested in what Chen Muwu had done, and was even a little disappointed.

In the Cavendish Laboratory, Dr. Chen tinkered with gamma-ray sources and X-ray sources every day, doing high-precision physics experiments.

How did he start studying beakers and flasks as soon as he arrived at David Faraday's lab?

Old Prague was still very interested before, and he couldn't figure out what Chen Muwu was going to do when he asked him to come forward to buy hydrocyanic acid.

He occasionally came to Chen Muwu's side to observe, but then he began to be gradually disappointed, and then he didn't even come back for a month.

As the director, he still has to rebuild this laboratory, since Rutherford has blown the bull and Chen Muwu can't get the money, old Prague has to think of some other way.

In David Faraday's laboratory, Chen Muwu was the only one who participated in the whole work.

Although Shi Ruwei and Chen Muwu came to London at the beginning of the year, after recognizing the poor environment of the laboratory and the current situation of zero funding, Chen Muwu finally decided to let him go back to Cambridge University to take classes first.

Thanks to this decision, plexiglass production was already late April, and the spring semester at Cambridge University was long over, and even the Easter semester had already begun.

It would have been a waste of time to stay in London.

Every day back and forth between the Legation and the Royal Research Institute, Chen Muwu has always been able to learn about some major events at home and abroad from Zhu Zhaoxin's mouth.

Mr. Sun, who went north with a sickness, finally failed to return to the south, but died in a foreign country, and the incident where Zhu Zhaoxin asked Chen Muwu to help with a few kind words also had a final result.

The good news is that Zhu Zhaoxin has finally gone one step further and has been promoted from a first-class secretary and chargΓ© d'affaires to a minister stationed abroad.

The bad news is that his country of residence is not the United Kingdom, but Italy.

The good news was that he was going to stay on the British side for the first time, and then go to Italy after handing over everything to the legation with the new minister to the United Kingdom.

And the new minister to Britain still doesn't know who it is, it is estimated that it should be because this is a fat shortage, and several forces on the side of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs are in open and secret battles, and they do not give in to each other.

Chen Muwu also regretted a little, he shouldn't have come forward to write the letter of recommendation for Zhu Zhaoxin in the first place.

Now that he was gone, wouldn't he have to go to the trouble of getting on good terms with the new minister?

Alas, let's take one step at a time.

Now that plexiglass has been made, the next step is to sell this strange item at a good price.

Since he figured out that selling to the second prince, who also served in the Air Force, should be more profitable than selling to the Brigadier General Daoding, Chen Muwu didn't think about contacting the latter anymore.

He dug out the address that the Duke of York had left him last year, wrote a letter and sent it.

In the letter, Chen Muwu did not explain the specific content, but said that he had a treasure and wanted to ask the Duke of York to take a look.

After writing the letter, Chen Muwu felt that he was very much like those ministers who played a trick on the emperor in ancient times, saying that the lotus flowers were juxtaposed in such and such a place, and the Ganoderma lucidum fairy grass appeared in such and such a place, in an attempt to use this to promote officials and make a fortune.

However, the Duke of York is not yet the emperor, and Chen Muwu is not his British subject.

can't talk about being promoted to an official, he just wants to get rich.

After writing a letter to the Duke of York, Chen Muwu also wrote a letter to Oppenheimer of Cambridge University.

After Oppenheimer received the letter, he was moved by himself again, and he felt that the teacher still remembered him.

At the beginning, Chen Muwu invited Shi Ruwei to go to London with him, although Oppenheimer did not hold a grudge, he was always a little unhappy in his heart.

Now the teacher wrote to him, and the first one invited him to London, and he asked again, and the remaining two people did not receive the teacher's call.

What does this mean? It shows that the teacher still ranks himself first in his heart!

After receiving the letter, Oppenheimer bought a ticket overnight and rushed from Cambridge University to London.

In fact, Chen Muwu wrote to Oppenheimer only because he was confident that after contacting the British Royal Air Force through the Duke of York, it would be a matter of time before they funded the plexiglass project and David Faraday Laboratories.

Therefore, Chen Muwu planned to call Oppenheimer to his side first, and as soon as the money arrived, he would immediately send him to Leiden University in the Netherlands to handle matters related to the purchase of experimental instruments.

As Sherlock's kindred and the son of a merchant, although he ended up in academic research instead of continuing to engage in business, his racial talent should have given him some bargaining power, right?

The letter to the Duke of York was quickly replied to.

Since the last time he said goodbye to the British Embassy in Paris, France, the second prince has not met him, Chen Muwu, a good alumnus of Trinity College.

After a long time, he forgot about the "emotional mentor" Chen Muwu's "three sentences that cost him 10,000 pounds".

He won the Nobel Prize, the Big Bang, was elected a fellow of the Royal Society, and fought with Albert Einstein in the dark.

The Duke of York increasingly felt that as an alumnus of Trinity College, Dr. Chan was becoming more and more unfathomable.

He had always wanted to return to Cambridge University as a private person to meet Chen Muwu.

But because the royal family was so busy with work, the Duke of York didn't even have time to play tennis, so it could only be reduced to twice a week, and he didn't have time to see Dr. Chan.

received a letter from Chen Muwu and learned that he was not in Cambridge, but in London.

And he also said in the letter that there was a treasure that he wanted the Duke of York to see, so he had to meet him.

The second prince just wanted to meet this outstanding and good alumnus who he hadn't seen for a long time, and he didn't want to see the baby of Rausch.

The Duke of York summoned his personal servant to study the nearest day when he had time.

He thought that not only to meet Chen Muwu alone, but since it was a treasure, he had to let his friends have a long insight, especially the group of Oxford University graduates represented by Huxley.

……

It was in David Faraday's laboratory that Chen Muwu met the royal servant sent by the Duke of York, who was the same one he had met at the Olympic Games in Paris last summer.

There is really no compulsion to write a reply letter through the post office, and the timeliness is not high, and it is easy to lose the mail, so Prince Albert directly sent someone to send the invitation letter and the ball ticket to the Royal Research Institute where Chen Muwu worked.

"Dr. Chen, long time no see. His Royal Highness The Duke of York invites you to watch this year's FA Cup final at Wembley Stadium at 3pm this Saturday and attend a private dinner hosted by His Royal Highness the Duke after the game. ”

FA Cup?

Chen Muwu felt that the dimensional wall had been broken again.

In his last life he was not Moroccan, so he was not a pure football lover.

And the football in his own country is not competitive, and his understanding of football is only at the level of cloud fans who occasionally play memes.

Three o'clock in the afternoon is the hottest time of the day.

Getting 90 minutes in the sun in the open air is not something to be enjoyed.

Chen Muwu estimated that the Duke of York thought he was an athlete, so he invited him to enjoy this annual sports event.

He glanced at the newspaper and wondered which two teams would play in this year's final.

If it is a famous team in the Premier League in the future, then you can also brag later, saying that you have already watched Arsenal's game or something.

By the way, I don't know what level of team Arsenal is now? Or is it in fourth place?

However, looking at the names of the two teams in the newspaper, Chen Muwu was a little dumbfounded.

Sheffield United vs. Cardiff City, he'd heard both names, but only at this stage.

Although he was resistant, in order to successfully sell plexiglass, Chen Muwu still appeared at the door of Wembley Stadium on time at noon on April 25.

Built in 1923, this magnificent stadium is probably the largest stadium in the world today, much more imposing than the Colombus Stadium where Chen Muwu attended the opening and closing ceremonies of the Olympic Games in Paris last year.

It's just that there is no VIP access to the stadium, and tickets are not sold in advance, but the window is only opened before the start of the game, allowing spectators to line up to buy.

So there was a lot of people outside the stadium, and the order was also very chaotic.

Although Chen Muwu has VIP tickets, there is no VIP access to this stadium, so he can only stand in the crowd and slowly surge forward with the flow of people.

After squeezing into the field, according to the guidance of the warning board in the field, Chen Muwu finally came to the box, where he also met the future British king nearly a year later.

"Your Highness, long time no see."

"Dr. Chen, long time no see, congratulations on winning the Nobel Prize in Physics! You are truly the pride of the University of Cambridge! ”

"Your Highness, you have praised it. I should thank you for your support of the Cavendish Laboratory, and with your funding, the laboratory has been getting better and better lately. ”

After taking his seat, Chen Muwu found that this box was located in the widest place of view in the stadium audience, and there was no one else in the box except Chen Muwu and the Duke of York, as well as some royal servants who provided services.

The royal servants set up some delicate refreshments on the table, as well as equally beautifully crafted teapots.

"Dr. Chan, please enjoy an authentic English afternoon tea. Today, because of your arrival, I deliberately asked them to choose Chinese tea instead of Indian tea. ”

Prince York is so caring, but Chen Muwu can't be happy.

When a normal person drinks tea, add milk and sugar to the tea water!

"Forget it, Your Highness, I don't like to drink black tea very much," he politely rejected the second prince's kindness, "I didn't expect that you would invite me to watch a football game." Are you a football lover? ”

"I like horseback riding, I like to play tennis, but I don't like watching football very much. I had to come here today because I was here on behalf of His Majesty the King and was going to present the prize to the winner.

"After I received your letter, I thought that you were an Olympic champion, so I decided to make an appointment for this occasion.

"I've been looking forward to hearing from you since I left France, why did it take so long to get such a letter!"

To put it mildly, whoever takes it seriously is a fool.

What can I, a flat-headed commoner, and you, a high-ranking prince, have in common?

Do I write to you about the latest advances in physics, or about the various astrological aspects in literature?

"Your Highness, I watched the sky at night and found that Mars had been hovering near the star Alpha Scorpio."

According to ancient Chinese astrology, Luminous Confusion is Mars, and Antares is the Alpha Scorpio.

Mars invades Alpha Scorpio, which is called Luminous Guard.

Glowing and guarding the heart, a great omen.

At least the crown prince lost his position, and at worst, the emperor died.

If Chen Muwu really wrote this in the letter, then it would be better to simply go one step further and continue to write that "the stars of Alpha and Sigma in Scorpio are dim, while the stars of Scorpio are unusually bright".

The two stars of Scorpio, Sigma and Set, like Alpha, belong to Antares and correspond to Antares and Antares.

In ancient astrology, Antares represents the emperor, Antares represents the prince, and Antares represents the concubine.

The subtext of that passage just now is that your father and your eldest brother will not be able to do it until the end, and there will be a day when you will sit on the throne of St. Edward's in England and the stone of destiny of Scotland!

Chen Muwu is now quite mysterious in the eyes of Doyle's ghost club.

If he really went to write such a letter to the Duke of York again, he would express the facts that would happen in the future in astrology more than ten years in advance.

Then when the Duke of York ascends the throne, savor what he wrote in his letter.

It is estimated that Chen Muwu will be able to get a treatment similar to Rasputin in front of George VI.

Chen Muwu fell into the state of thinking blindly regardless of the people present, and the corners of his mouth were still stupid.

Although the Duke of York felt that Chen Muwu's current behavior was a bit out of line, his good tutor did not let him show this dissatisfaction.

Maybe it's because I saw football, so I thought of some new academic discoveries, right?

"Dr. Chen, what are you thinking?"

The Duke of York kindly reminded.

"No, it's nothing, Your Highness, it's me who lost my temper," Chen Muwu hurriedly apologized, "I just heard from you that you don't like football, just because you want to attend the final award ceremony instead of His Majesty the King."

"It seems that as a member of the royal family, you also have your own difficulties. My only concern is that there will only be more opportunities for you to attend such occasions in the future. ”

No spoilers and uncomfortable, Chen Muwu still said what was in his heart very vaguely.
