Fox of France

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

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

　　 "A large-scale civil war, just like Britain." Napoleon said.

"No, it's not just that. The problem in France is much bigger than that in Britain, and its people are much more angry than the people in Britain." Joseph said, "Furthermore, France is a continental country. In a sense, it It is the core of the entire European continent. Any changes to it will cause a chain reaction in Europe. If the French king's crown 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 they were, will be crushed to pieces. Just like a small bug in front of a wagon wheel, whether it is a small beetle or one that can eat a small beetle The praying mantises are all crushed into powder equally-death is a great equality, don't you think, Napoleon? As for me, I want to stay away from the wheel, and wait for the wheel to run over, and then come and eat the crushed bugs Corpses, like vultures or hyenas."

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

"Stupid son of Helios, my stupid brother!" Joseph said, "You want to fly your father's sun cart with blazing flames into the sky, but have you ever considered having such power? Poor worm, the son of impermanence and worry, you forgot the phrase "Knowyourself" by Delphi (Delphi is a Greek place name, where there is the famous Temple of Apollo. The quotation means "know yourself") Oh? Ah, how unlucky I am, there is a stupid brother like you, I must always be prepared, fortunately, when you overturn the sun cart and then fall from high in the sky, you can catch you ."

　　 After hearing this, Napoleon laughed happily. Because Joseph compared him to the hero Phaeton, the son of the ancient Greek sun **** Helios, in the language just now. The hero drove his father's sun car without a license and caused a serious car accident and lost his life. But in any case, he is also an extraordinary and enterprising hero.

"My arrogant brother, you also need'Knowyourself'. When the sun cart fell, you thought you could catch it. Who do you think you are? Is it Zeus?" Napoleon laughed, "but my dear Hyena, let’s talk more about your plan."

　　 "No matter what we are going to 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 revolution and war more accurately, you can really make a lot of money. After the war breaks out, many things will become very scarce." Napoleon said, "but just like Archimedes To move the earth, Germany needs a long lever and a fulcrum. Before that opportunity comes, the more money you have, the more you gain. How do you plan to obtain your leverage and fulcrum? ?"

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

"Yes, if it is easy to get rich, no one will want to revolution." Napoleon also nodded, "So you won't have a long lever and a strong pivot. You can only continue to eat honestly without butter. I only ate a lamb chop in a month."

　　 "These alone are not enough." Joseph shook his head.

　　 "Recently, the Academy of Sciences is offering a reward for thesis." Napoleon suddenly said, "The bonus is very good. I plan to write an article and try it. You can also try Joseph."

　　 The Royal Academy of Sciences in Paris was founded by Richelieu, Prime Minister of Louis XIII. Now located in the Louvre, it is the highest academic institution in France. For the papers it collects, the bounty is very generous, up to six hundred francs. In addition, if you can win this bonus, you can get a huge honor. For people like Napoleon, the latter may be what makes him more tempting. In his eyes, this thing may be like the laurels in the ancient Greek Olympics, a symbol of heroes. However, Joseph also felt that this was a good idea. As a traverser, he knows a lot of scientific knowledge far beyond this era. Finding something out of it to swindle money, and brushing up his reputation by the way will be good for the future.

"It's just that, considering the scientific basis of this era, what should I do, which is explosive and does not require too much pre-work?" Joseph couldn't help but think, "Or, I will put physics in the history The most terrifying double-slit diffraction experiment was thrown out in advance, scaring them to death?"

　　 On the issue of the nature of light, there have always been two opposing views, namely the wave theory represented by the British scientist Hook 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 views, so for a long time-until the "double peak diffraction" more than once, the monster that has shaken the entire physics is released. So far-the particle theory 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 an Englishman, and in Britain, although Sir Newton has passed away for more than 70 years, his prestige has increased day by day during these more than 70 years. Any attempt to challenge Newton’s theory would be regarded as “ridiculous” and “illogical”. In addition, Thomas Young failed to give a complete mathematical explanation, and it was also because he wrongly assumed The treatment of light as a longitudinal wave caused a series of unexplainable problems, so at that time this monster was ignored by the British physics community. Until more than ten years later, the French scientist Fresnel based on the Huygens principle and the interference principle, treated light as a transverse wave, established the Huygens-Fresnel principle in a new quantitative form, and perfected the light Diffraction theory, which perfectly explained the double-slit diffraction experiment, did the wave theory turn against the object and prevailed in the battle with the particle theory. (Of course, this is also related to Fresnel being French. Basically, as long as the British opposed it, the French were always willing to support it. Although in the French Academy of Sciences, the supporters of the particle theory were still the majority at the time, But it won't make Fresnel silent.)

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

Thinking of this, Joseph smiled: "My stupid brother, it's rare that you have a good idea. It seems that even a fool can produce a flash of thought after a thousand thoughts. UU reading www.uukANAnshu.com"

　　 "My arrogant brother, you know what, I have been preparing for this for a while, and I think my chances of winning are much greater than you." Napoleon replied.

　　 "Well, we will prepare a paper each to see who has a higher level of paper." Joseph said.

"Yes." Napoleon said, but he quickly reacted: "No, Joseph, there are pitfalls in your language. You are talking about who has a higher level of thesis, not who wins. My brother , The level of the thesis can be completely controversial. In this way, even if you are the winner, you can still excuse that it is because the old people of the Academy of Sciences have no eyes, and the level of your thesis is far beyond Mine, then you can recklessly reckless, you don't have to admit defeat. Honestly, Joseph, are you making such an idea?"

Joseph listened, took a step back, looked at Napoleon, shook his head, and said in a very sad tone: "Ah, Napoleon, how can you suspect me like this? You make me so sad. And..." The tone was sad. It was like Medea abandoned by Jason. But he suddenly changed his tone and said: "You know, the Academy of Sciences, or anywhere else, is full of stupid hats. The probability of them having no eyes is not low. Of course, to be honest, there are still many people who are not stupid hats at the Paris Academy of Sciences. My brother, therefore, it is very likely that they will read your stupid article and simply cannot understand my article. So their judgment cannot be used as a criterion for judging. But... my brother, or else That’s it. You’re up to your judgment to see if my paper is higher than yours. Although you are a stupid guy, you are also a proud guy. You don’t bother to say something against your will. Words."
