Chapter 413: , Scary

To say that Joseph hasn't had a big deal lately, and the technology tree that is easy to climb now has basically been climbed, and the technology tree that is not easy to climb is temporarily unable to climb. For example, in medicine, antibiotics have been discovered in the laboratory. This is not difficult, just get some penicillium. But the purification and production of antibiotics, well, I don’t know what year it was. Another example is the synthetic ammonia technology. At the beginning of the laboratory, it was a bit fruitful, but when it tried to industrialize it, it immediately caused a big explosion. In the explosion, more than 300 workers and more than 50 engineers died on the spot.
More than 300 workers died, and everyone did not feel distressed. Most of them were Germans. They died, except for their own relatives. As the saying goes, "relatives or sorrow, others have already sang". But if more than fifty engineers died, it really made the French feel distressed. Among these engineering personnel, even the lowest-level trainee engineers are college students who graduated from the Ecole Technical School in Paris, and they are also senior talents in France. As for the higher-level senior engineers, there are also several, and even the chief engineer is on the death list.
So this plan can only be postponed indefinitely. For this reason, Napoleon was very angry and severely criticized Joseph's non-customer view conditions.
So now, to tell the truth, Joseph has nothing too important. To say that recently, his most important thing is to inspire his assistant Gauss to deduce a certain he has already completed, but because it is too scary. , And the hidden things are thrown out to scare people.
However, in terms of mathematics, European countries are no longer French opponents at all. At this time, Joseph encouraged Gauss to throw this thing out. The main purpose is actually not to scare foreigners, but to suppress the gang of Paris Normal University. Guys. By the way, consolidate your academic dominance. Yes, Joseph is now an academic leader, and he is not an exam leader, but the academic leader.
Nowadays, in physics and medicine, there is no force that can fight against the Joseph School, but in mathematics, the Paris Normal University still has very strong strength. So Joseph targeted them. In particular, it can be seen how far the French scientific community has been involved under the leadership of Joseph.
Currently Joseph is working with Gauss to make final preparations for his groundbreaking, breakthrough, important and subversive theory. I intend to use this to dig a pit, to take a good blow to those guys from the Paris Normal University department.
But the main thing is that Gauss is doing this. Joseph only takes care of the general direction, so now he has a lot of time to teach his children what is worth playing in Italy.
Basically, we have already negotiated with Italy. Joseph also prepared an Italian boutique tour route for Mr. Lavoisier (in fact, more for his daughter). First go to Milan for a few days, then to the University of Padua, then to Venice for a few days, then to the University of Siena, then to the University of Bologna, and then to Rome for a week. Well, considering that Alice is still young and needs to rest more, then take a few more days of rest in Rome, even if half a month is better, then...
In addition, going to universities in other countries to pretend to be b. Such a thing is not necessary for Joseph. But it is still necessary to arrange for my students and assistants to go there...
Related matters were quickly arranged, but one day before the departure, there was suddenly news that Mr. Lavoisier was ill.
Mr. Lavoisier is already very old, so it is normal to have a headache suddenly. But Joseph hurried to visit Mr. Lavoisier.
Joseph saw Lavoisier, who was lying in bed, at his home in Lavoisier. Mr. Lavoisier seemed to have a cold, lying there, sneezing and running nose. The doctor has taken Lavoisier's body temperature with the newly invented mercury thermometer. Mr. Lavoisier has a slight fever, but he has no symptoms of coughing. This shows that there is no risk of turning to pneumonia at least temporarily.
"Mr. Lavoisier, how do you feel?" Joseph asked.
"Ah, my head is heavy, and my whole body hurts-hell, I was fine last night." Lavoisier was lying on the bed with a wet towel on his forehead.
"You should have a cold. It's okay." Joseph said.
"I know, the doctor said the same. The doctor said, in a week, I should be able to heal. But I guess it will not be better in two weeks-I am not a boy anymore. Fortunately, yours Research has completely overturned bloodletting therapy. Otherwise, let them bleed randomly, I don't think I will get better in a month."
"Ah, Mr. Lavoisier, I think you should be well soon. You can see from your very organized speech." Joseph said.
"Ah, Joseph, who will lead the delegation tomorrow?" Lavoisier said.
"Or, what do you think of Gauss?" Joseph knew that Lavoisier must be unable to lead the team.
"Gauss is still a bit young." Lavoisier said, "Besides, we promised them to be led by a dean. Gauss's level is not enough. Ah, Joseph, you should have nothing to do recently, right?"
"It's nothing, it's just reviewing a new paper by Gauss." Joseph replied.
"Well, Gauss is also going to Italy. Or you will lead the team. Anyway, if you have any problems, you can communicate with Gauss." Lavoisier said, "Besides, you can also take care of Little Alice. ."
Joseph thought for a while, and felt that this suggestion was indeed very good. Now he can be regarded as successful. In a short period of time, France does not seem to be in any special danger. Taking this opportunity to relax is actually quite good. But Mr. Lavoisier seemed to be a little too enthusiastic about things in Italy-he mostly took Italian money.
"But Fanny..." Joseph said.
"Fanny still takes care of you?" Mrs. Lavoisier said, "You went out, maybe she is more relaxed."
This is actually true, and Joseph himself felt so. But even though he was thinking this way in his heart, he said: "I can help a lot with family affairs. But Mr. Lavoisier can't go, let others take Alice, I am really worried, it seems It can only be so. It just happens that I have nothing to do now. Well, Mr. Lavoisier, do I need to bring you some souvenirs from Italy?
"Ah..." Lavoisier thought for a while, "What's in Italy? Ah, or Joseph, can you bring me back a set of Roman coins..."
When he got home, Joseph told Fanny about his decision to go to Italy for Lavoisier. Fanny has no objection to this.
"Whether you go, Mr. Lavoisier is old after all. Fortunately, he is sick in Paris. If he is sick in Milan, Padua or Siena, who will take care of Alice?"
So Joseph hurried to equip him, and the next day he took his daughter, a group of students and assistants, and embarked on the road to Italy.
Nowadays there is a railway from Paris to the south of France, but there is no direct railway connecting from France to Italy. Where France and Italy meet are steep mountains. The difficulty of building a railway in the Alps is still a bit too high, so nowadays the usual way of travel is to board a boat from Marseille and then land on the Italian side.
Napoleon and Lucien went to the train station to see Joseph and his party off in person. Watching Joseph and his party get on the train and get into the special carriage. Then he waved at them, and the train moved slowly.
Standing on the platform, Napoleon watched the train slowly go away. He couldn't help but waved his hand with excitement. He said to Lucien next to him: "Okay, it's more than half of the success! Now, let us proceed as planned. Right."
"Don't worry, at least we have to wait until Joseph arrives in Milan before we can really do something." Lucien said.
"Yes, yes, no rush, no rush." ​​Napoleon rubbed his hands, looking restless.
"Vanity!" Lucien couldn't help but shook his head.
In Joseph's box, Joseph handed a folder to Gauss.
"Gauss, what do you think of my proof?" Joseph smiled triumphantly.
Gauss took the folder, opened it, and saw a line like this: "An Explanation of Non-Euclidean Geometry."
"Teacher, this is..." Goss raised his eyes and looked at Joseph in surprise.
"Ah, it is a supplementary proof for your research. From the perspective of differential geometry, I proved your idea on a hyperboloid similar to a saddle. If my proof is okay, your new geometry and Euclidean geometry is equivalent under certain conditions. In addition, I think, I guess, starting from the projection, there may be another interesting way of proof. But I have a lot of work to do, so the proof in this direction , I’ll leave it to you to complete. Well, the content inside must be kept secret, at least for now." Joseph said.
Gauss did not speak, but began to read the paper page by page. Joseph turned his head and said to the little Alice on one side: "Alice, come here, Dad will teach you to play chess."
This is one of the games that Joseph and Alice played the most. Alice likes to play this game with Joseph. Of course, the result of her liking to play with her dad is that Joseph's current chess level has changed from being able to hang Lucien easily to being easily hanged by Lucien.
"Okay." Alice ran over, "but this time I don't want you to let me have a car, a queen, and a knight. I think if you make me a queen, I can win."
So Goss sat reading the paper, and Joseph and Alice played chess next to him. Little Alice was inattentive, and was enlisted by Joseph’s bishop. She wanted to move the king, but found that if the king was moved, she would lose a car in vain, so she became anxious. She pouted and held it down with her hand Bishop Haig of Joseph said: "No, father, your bishop is not allowed to go like this... not allowed to go like this."
"Well, Alice, I allow you to regret a move." Joseph said.
Little Alice looked at the chessboard carefully, and then said: "I regret two moves..."
Then the two went down for a while...
"No, I won't go like this, I want to regret the game..."
"My step, I want to go here..."
So it took more than an hour, and after repenting many times of chess, Alice finally got her wish and defeated Joseph. The little guy was jumping for joy.
At this time, Gauss has read this short paper and even completed the relevant calculations. At least for now, he has not found any loopholes.
He raised his eyes from the desk so that Joseph raised his hand to surrender to Alice, and said: "Teacher, I have finished reading this paper. It should be fine, at least I have not found a problem. With this proof, mine It seems that the new geometry can really be established. Well, the teacher, you said just now, you can consider it from the perspective of projection, maybe there is another way of proof?
"Why, what did you think of?" Joseph asked.
"Teacher, when I was reading this paper just now, I had some ideas, but I haven't thought about everything yet." Gauss said.
Gauss’s character is a bit too stable~EbookFREE.me~ is not something with full confidence, no matter how valuable it is, he always hides it for fear of being seen by others. For example, in the original history, after Lobachevsky derived Roche's geometry, he once sent the paper to Gauss for viewing.
Gauss watched it at the time and praised it in private. He told people that all wise mathematicians would have similar opinions. Lobachevsky's research and many of my researches have many similarities.
But in public, Gauss never commented on Rochevsky’s geometry, although according to what people found when he was sorting out his manuscripts after his death, he went even earlier than Lobachevsky in terms of non-Euclidean geometry. Many places have gone further, but because Gauss was too cautious, he kept pressing these things under the box in secret.
But this time, Joseph wouldn't let Gauss press these things under the box again.
"Well, then you can study it when you have time." Joseph nodded, "However, the research results must be kept confidential. Especially the research on these two types of proofs must be kept confidential. When we visit Italy this time When I come back, I will publish your new geometry directly in the journal of the French Academy of Sciences. The guys from the Paris Normal University will definitely come forward to oppose it. We will let them perform first, and then use these two proofs to give them They are..."
