Fox of France

"Then, my dear brother, since you have made such a judgment, you must have further plans, right? The French Revolution is a big event, and I don't believe you are going to sit on the sidelines. You must have further plans. Plan?" asked Napoleon.

"This is a French thing." Joseph said, "I don't want to interfere too deeply, I just want to take advantage of the situation. Do you know what revolution means?"

"Large civil war, like in England," said Napoleon.

"No, it's not just that. France's problems are much bigger than that of Britain, and its people are much more angry than the people of Britain." Joseph said, "Besides, France is a continental country. In a sense, it It is the core of the entire European continent. Any change in it will cause a chain reaction in Europe. If the crown of the French king falls, it will fall with many other crowns on the European continent. The war will last for a long time, and the war may It will burn all over Europe.

Countless people, no matter how noble or humble he was, will be crushed to pieces. Just like the little bug that stands in front of the wheels of the wagon, whether it is a little beetle or a praying mantis that eats a little beetle, they are all equally crushed to powder—death is a great equality, don't you think, Napoleon? As for me, I'll stay away from the wheel, and when it's over, I'll eat the carcasses of the crushed bugs, like vultures or hyenas. "

"Ah, my brother, this is really you!" Napoleon said contemptuously, "You have the eyelashes to pierce the dust of the times and the pupils to see through the fog of society, but you don't have a brave heart to ride the torrent of the times .I'm different, I'm going to jump on that tank, take control of it, and let it go as I want."

"Stupid son of Helios, my stupid brother!" Joseph said, "You want to drive your father's sun chariot burning with raging flames into the sky, but have you considered that you have such power? Poor bastard, son of impermanence and sorrow, you forgot the phrase 'Know yourself' in Delphi )? Ah, how unlucky I am to have a stupid brother like you, I must always be ready to catch you when you flip the solar car over and fall from the sky you."

Napoleon laughed happily when he heard this. Because Joseph, in the language just now, compared him to the hero Phaethon, the son of the ancient Greek sun god Helios. The hero lost his life in a serious crash while driving his father's sun car without a license. But in any case he is also an extraordinary, enterprising hero.

"My arrogant brother, you also need to 'Know yourself'. When the sun chariot fell, you actually thought you could catch it. Who do you think you are? Zeus?" Napoleon laughed, "But I Dear hyena, let me tell you more about your plan."

"No matter what we do in the future, we still need some material preparations. So I plan to make some money first when the revolution comes." Joseph said.

"Well, if you can judge the timing of revolutions and wars more accurately, you can indeed make a lot of money. Many things will become very scarce after the outbreak of war." Napoleon said, "But like Akimi If you want to move the earth, you need a long lever and a fulcrum. Before that opportunity comes, the more money you have in hand, the more you will gain. How do you plan to get your lever and fulcrum? ?”

"This is indeed a big problem." Joseph frowned. In France before the revolution, it was too difficult for a poor man to save money, even if he was a time traveler. Having said that, if a poor person can make money with his own ability as long as he has some ability, then he will go to revolution. Isn't there a revolution because the current French system blocks the way for everyone to live a good life?

"That's right, if it was easy to get rich, no one would want a revolution." Napoleon also nodded, "So you won't have a very long lever and a very strong fulcrum. You can only continue to eat honestly without butter black bread, and only one mutton chop in a month."

"It's not enough to rely on these alone." Joseph shook his head and said.

"Recently, the Academy of Sciences is offering rewards for papers." Napoleon suddenly said, "The rewards are very good. I plan to try writing one. Joseph, you can try it too."

The Royal Academy of Sciences in Paris was founded by Richelieu, Prime Minister of Louis XIII. Today it is located in the Louvre, the highest academic institution in France. The reward for the papers it collects is very generous, as high as six hundred francs. In addition, if you can win this bonus, you can also get great honor. For a person like Napoleon, the latter may be what fascinates him more. In his eyes, this thing may be like the laurel crown in the ancient Greek Olympic Games, a symbol of a hero. However, Joseph also felt that this was a good idea. As a time traveler, he knows a lot of scientific knowledge far beyond this era, and finding something out of it to cheat money, and to brush up his reputation by the way, is also very beneficial for the future.

"It's just that, considering the scientific basis of this era, how can we come up with something that will be explosive and not require too much pre-work?" Joseph couldn't help thinking, "How about I make the history of physics a reality?" Throw out the most terrifying double-slit diffraction experiment in advance to scare them to death?"

On the issue of the nature of light, there have always been two opposing views, that is, the wave theory represented by the British scientist Hooke and the particle theory represented by the British scientist Newton. Because of the influence of Sir Newton's great achievements, people are more willing to believe his point of view, so for a long time—until the "double peak diffraction" monster that shook the entire physics more than once was released So far—the theory of particles has an overwhelming advantage.

The first to release this monster and complete the double-slit diffraction experiment was British scientist Thomas Young. In 1801, he used this experiment as a weapon to challenge the particle theory that has always been dominant. However, he is British, and in England, although Sir Newton has been dead for more than 70 years, his prestige has been increasing day by day during these 70 years. Any approach to challenge Newton's theory will be regarded as "absurd" and "illogical". In addition, Thomas Young failed to give a complete explanation in mathematics, and because he mistakenly Treating light as a longitudinal wave led to a series of unexplainable problems, so the monster was ignored by the British physics community at that time.

Until more than ten years later, the French scientist Fresnel, based on Huygens' principle and interference principle, treated light as a transverse wave, and established Huygens' drive theory with a new quantitative form.

It’s not easy to recover.

"It is not difficult to realize this experiment in terms of conditions." Joseph thought, "In fact, in later generations, this experiment can be completed in a middle school laboratory. As for Fresnel's proof, the required prerequisite The work is also relatively limited. Of course, there are still some, but they are mainly mathematical preparations, and it is not impossible. I can even take out the Poisson spot experiment together to make them all dumbfounded."

Thinking of this, Joseph smiled and said, "My stupid brother, it's rare that you have a good idea. It seems that even a fool can produce a shining thought after a thousand times of thinking. "

"My proud brother, you know, I have been preparing for this for some time, and I think I have a much better chance of winning than you," Napoleon replied.

"Okay then, let's each prepare a thesis and see who has a higher level of thesis." Joseph said.

"Yes." Napoleon said, but he quickly reacted and said: "No, Joseph, there is a trap in your language. You are talking about who has a higher level of thesis, not who wins the prize. My brother , the level of the thesis can be completely disputed. In this way, even if you are the one who won the prize, you can still excuse that it is because those old things in the Academy of Sciences have no eyes, and the level of your thesis is far beyond Mine, and then you can renege on your debts, you can give up. Honestly, Joseph, is that what you're thinking of?"

After hearing this, Joseph took a step back, looked at Napoleon, shook his head, and said in a very sad tone: "Ah, Napoleon, how can you be so suspicious of me? You make me sad. And..." The tone was sad It is like Medea abandoned by Jason. But he suddenly changed his tone and said: "You know, the Academy of Sciences, or any other place, is full of idiots. The probability of them being blind is not low. Of course, to be honest, there are quite a few people who are not idiots in the Paris Academy of Sciences. My brother, therefore, it is very likely that they will fall in love with your idiot article, but they will not understand mine at all. Therefore, their judgment cannot be used as the criterion for judging.

But... My brother, it’s better to be like this. Whether my thesis is of a higher level than yours is up to you to judge. Although you are a stupid guy, you are also a proud guy. You don't bother to say something against your will on such a matter. "
