Into Unscientific

  Chapter 237 started with a debt (4.8K)

  “.”

  As a student from a poor family, Stokes is actually quite disgusted with the situation of going through the back door.

   While he was in college, he had many conflicts with those students who came in through their relationship.

   He was even given the somewhat insulting nickname of 'the mason's son' in 1850.

   while following the normal trajectory.

  Stokes also continued this attitude of hostility to the back door into his later life.

  During his tenure as the president of the Royal Society, he strictly advocated academic integrity and resolutely opposed all kinds of backdoor behavior.

influenced by.

  The academic atmosphere of the entire British peninsula is extremely pure.

  This clean soil has produced a large number of well-known scientists, so Stokes was also considered a reformer in the later period, and made extremely outstanding contributions to the soil for cultivating talents.

  Therefore, Stokes wanted to reject the proposal made by William Whewell.

but

  The conditions given by the other party are really delicious.

   Trinity College's quota of courses, this one alone is enough to make him shake.

  Cambridge University’s course scheduling is valid for up to two years. Stokes is currently conducting a promising theoretical research, and results will be available in about a year.

  As long as the theoretical report is released, I will definitely become famous, and I don't need to worry about the source of students anymore.

  Thus, Trinity College's course quota can be regarded as a solid shell for him in his weakest period.

   Not to mention the teaching qualification of Mai Mai, a super fee-reduction student, this is also a big killer!

  Although since the Mavericks passed away, such evaluations of the "second Mavericks" have emerged one after another, flooding like the fifth-level writers of the starting point, and have no authority and reference value.

  But as far as Stokes knows, wheat is different. He seems to have some potential to grow into a second calf.

  So it's not that Stokes is not determined enough, but that William Whewell gave too much.

  Think here.

  Stokes sighed resignedly, and said to William Whewell:

   "Mr. Dean, you have won."

  William Whewell patted Stokes on the shoulder with a smile, a hint of Gao Yi's relief as if seeing Bai Jie submitting appeared on his face:

   "Mr. Stokes, please believe me, your choice is correct."

   "Although student Luo Feng is a little lacking in knowledge, maybe he is a good seedling. Will he cultivate a genius by then?"

  Stokes was a little reluctant at first, but after hearing this, he became even more angry.

  He glanced slightly at his own headmaster, and said in a blunt tone:

   "Mr. Dean, are your words convincing at all?"

   Then he pointed to the ax in Mai Mai's hand, regardless of Xu Yun's presence, and said directly:

   "Let me just say it directly, if he can have thirty, no, one-twentieth of Maxwell's achievements, I will eat that ax on the spot!"

  Wheat heard the words and glanced at the ax in his hand, and then at Thomson who was beside him:

  “.”

  Why do these people always like to chew axes?

   Then Stokes wiped his beard, took a deep breath, and calmed himself down:

   "Mr. Dean, let's do this first. You still need to spend some time on arranging courses. Don't forget your promise."

   "I still have something to do, so I won't bother you for now."

   After finishing speaking, he glanced at Xu Yun, felt a little sorry, and added:

   "Luo Feng, although I don't have much hope for your ability, I won't deliberately target or make things difficult for you."

   "If you don't believe me, you can inquire about my style review. Okay, remember to attend class on time and leave."

   After speaking, he nodded to Mai and Thomson, and left the office quickly.

  See this scenario.

  Wheat couldn't help but quietly moved to Xu Yun's side, muttering:

   "Mr. Luo Feng, this Professor Stokes seems a little irritable."

  Xu Yun listened to the sound of Stokes' distant footsteps, and shrugged indifferently.

  He can quite understand Stokes' thoughts, after all, things like Gasser are not very popular in ancient and modern China and abroad:

   "No way, who told me to come in through the back door? To put it bluntly, it is a burden."

  Wheat was taken aback when he heard the words, and then fell silent.

  William Whewell went back to his desk and rang a bell on the desk.

   After a while.

   Werner's voice soon came from outside the door:

   "Mr. Dean, are you looking for me?"

  William Whewell nodded and said to him:

   "Student Werner, please go and ask Avelyn to come over. She should be teaching on the third floor of the clock tower."

   Werner has the consciousness of a tool man, and immediately bowed neatly:

   "Understood, I will do it now."

   After Werner leaves.

  William Whewell looked at the three of Thomson again, opened his mouth, and was about to say something.

  In the end, Xiaomai suddenly raised his head, and said beforehand:

   "Mr. Dean, I have a request that I hope the school can approve."

  William Whewell's attitude towards wheat is quite gentle, and he immediately waved his hand boldly after hearing this:

   "Student Maxwell, just say what you want!"

  Wheat pointed to Xu Yun and said:

   "I hope to live in a dormitory with Mr. Luo Feng."

   Then, without waiting for William Whewell to say something, Mai Mai turned around and made a cheering gesture to Xu Yun:

   "Mr. Luo Feng, you will stay at Cambridge University for four years. I think if you work hard and persevere, you will be able to graduate successfully with your own ability."

  “Although our courses are different, as long as we live together, I can help you with knowledge after class.”

   "I heard that Mr. Fat Fish once said a word to Lord Newton, as long as you keep going, you can see the flowers of hope, so don't stop!"

  Xu Yun:

  “.”

have to say.

  While Xiaomai's tone was a bit sloppy, his actions were still heart-warming.

   After all, there are only so many students at Cambridge University.

  Xu Yun's identity as a "parallel importer" will inevitably spread to all colleges soon, it's nothing more than a matter of time.

   So predictably yes.

  In the future, Xu Yun will receive more and more malicious attention and discussions than Stokes.

   Almost no one communicates with him in a friendly manner.

in this case.

  Wheat is willing to stand firmly on his side, which will undoubtedly bring him a lot of criticism.

   But thinking about it carefully, this is also in line with Xiaomai's personality.

   After all, Mai is recognized as one of the few people with the best moral character in the history of science. In terms of morality, Mavericks really only deserves to carry shoes for Xiaomai.

  After discovering Cavendish's manuscript, instead of taking it as his own, Example Mai chose to make it public.

To know.

  The manuscript recorded Cavendish's lifelong theoretical achievements, a considerable part of which was still in the derivation stage during the wheat period.

  If Mai takes these manuscripts as his own and publishes them under his own name

   I am afraid that now it is not just two gods who are competing for the first throne in the history of science, but three.

In addition, Wheat has also funded dozens of middle school and college students. After the outbreak of the two crows, it even published an article criticizing the atrocities in the United Kingdom. upright.

   Later, when Wheat established the Cavendish Laboratory, the British royal family also proposed to donate a batch of instruments, and the funds were distributed from the indemnity.

  Wheat directly rejected the proposal in the reply letter, saying that he "does not want those filthy things stolen from other people's homes".

   There are actually two aspects to wheat's exclusion in his middle and later years, one is academic circles, and the other is political circles.

   Among them, the exclusion of academic circles is naturally due to conceptual issues.

  However, the rejection in the political circles is more or less related to his opposition to the invasion of China or the invasion of the East.

  Therefore, Mai Mai is undisputedly kind in terms of character, let alone Xu Yun saved his life, it is not difficult for him to make such a request.

  But Maimai's kind heart was kind, and William Whewell couldn't help frowning.

  Wheat wants to obtain postgraduate treatment, this requirement is not difficult.

   After all, it's a special matter.

   It didn't even need to be mentioned by Xiaomai, he was ready to arrange it according to the salary of a graduate student.

   But the problem is

  Now the postgraduate dormitories of Cambridge University, except for St. John's College, are standard double rooms.

   According to the original plan.

  The school will arrange for Thomson to be wheat's roommate - which is why Thomson can be wheat's receiver.

  But now with the emergence of the variable Xu Yun, the whole plan has been disrupted.

   But rejecting Mai is another troublesome thing, after all, they just want to choose a roommate

  Think here.

  William Whewell had no choice but to give up other ideas, and said to Mai:

   "No problem, Maxwell, I will take care of the dormitory."

"yeah!"

   Obtaining the dean's promise, Mai Mai immediately bowed excitedly:

   "Thank you, Mr. Dean!"

  William Whewell waved his hands pretending to be indifferent, but secretly sighed.

  Agree to agree.

  Now that his own arrangements have been completely disrupted, William Whewell is somewhat unhappy.

  Is there any method that will not have any real impact, but can vent your anger on yourself?

   Thinking and thinking.

  A flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in William Whewell's mind.

correct!

   That thing!

  I saw him walking quickly to the edge of the smashed window, lowered his head and rummaged a few times, and quickly found a piece of kraft paper.

  He took the kraft paper in his hand, came to Xu Yun, put on a very kind expression, and said to Xu Yun:

   "Student Luo Feng, I remember you said that Mr. Fat Yu is your ancestor, right?"

  Xu Yun nodded and replied:

   "Yes, one of my distant ancestors."

   Then just when Xu Yun thought that William Whewell was going to ask a few questions to verify his identity, the dean of Trinity College suddenly smiled brightly and clapped his hands heavily:

   "That would be great!"

   Without waiting for Xu Yun to reply, William Whewell spread out the kraft paper neatly, pointed to it and explained:

   "Student Luo Feng, Mr. Fat Yu once made a deal with Sir Newton."

   "The two parties invested in technology and capital to develop the famous ketchup. Do you remember this?"

  Xu Yun nodded:

"of course I remember."

  The smile on William Whewell's face became brighter again, and he continued:

   "Then you should also know that because Mr. Fat Fish couldn't be contacted later, Lord Newton kept Mr. Fat Fish's dividend by his side."

   "The two parties agreed that the storage fee is eight ten-thousandths of a day."

   "Mr. Fat Fish agreed to this storage method in his reply letter, and the original letter is in the museum of Cambridge University."

  Xu Yun:

  “.”

  Some kind of bad premonition faintly appeared in his heart.

  William Whewell looked at Xu Yun, who was sweating gradually on his forehead, and gently raised the kraft paper in his hand:

   "According to the bill statistics, the treasury kept by Lord Newton has distributed dividends five times."

   "The amounts are £67, £113, £279, £760, and £2,766."

   "The total is 3885 pounds."

   "Let's wipe out the previous interest and date, and start calculating directly from the last 2,766 deposits."

  William Whewell quickly wrote down a series of numbers on the paper. As the dean of Trinity College, his mathematical skills are still very strong:

   "The last dividend was put into the treasury in 1723, 4 years before the death of Lord Newton."

   "127 years between 1723 and 1850, 127X365X3885X0.08% is"

   "£144071.34!"

  Xu Yun:

   "??????"

  He suddenly wanted to ask William Whewell:

  Boss, can this money be the same as the Jiageng owed in the previous life, is it not considered interest?
