Into Unscientific

  Chapter 241 Cambridge life from scratch (Part 2) (6.6K)

  In the bedroom.

  Actually, when he heard Thomson’s sentence [.Fat Yu once called people like Sir Newton ‘this son’], Xu Yun remembered what was going on.

   That was something that happened early in the 1665 dungeon.

   At that time, in order to be able to gain the trust of the Mavericks.

  He deliberately linked Mavericks' experience with the protagonist in the novel, and derived the word "this son". (Chapter nine)

   It was precisely because of this one-handed operation that Xu Yun formally got closer to the Mavericks.

   Just didn't expect it to be.

   Such an event was recorded in the autobiography by Mavericks, and it even became a very grand ceremony at Cambridge University!

  In addition, when the selection of "this boy" was selected, everyone in the audience actually had to hold ice cubes in their mouths, and gasped?

  True took a breath. (After I typed out the gasp, the words "breath of air" appeared automatically.)

Of course.

   This also shows the status of the Mavericks from another aspect, and it can really be called holy in Cambridge.

   But soon.

  Xu Yun's attention was drawn back to reality by the screaming Mai Mai.

  He turned his head and looked.

  I saw Mai Mai standing by the bathroom door, taking off her clothes quickly, chanting 'I'm not clean' all the time.

  Xu Yun: "."

   Yes.

  This future electromagnetism master was just touched by a bunch of hands that took smelly socks

   Ignoring Mai Mai who stripped naked and rushed into the bathroom, Thomson pulled Xu Yun aside again, and ordered:

   "Luo Feng, although I live next door to you, I may be a little busy in the next few days, and may not always stay in the dormitory."

   "So Maxwell has to rely on you to pay more attention to matters in life and study."

   "As for your three meals, I will explain to the cafeteria. At that time, you can have your meals in the dormitory or in the cafeteria."

  Thomson's words were very serious, with an inexplicable meaning.

   On the way to Cambridge University, he has roughly figured out the characters of Mai Mai and Xu Yun.

  Wheat is actually very simple.

  He is not sociable but kind-hearted, with a wild beauty in the innocence of his eyes, and his eyes are true.

   As for Xu Yun, it's a bit more complicated.

He occasionally makes mistakes in some details of life or knowledge that can be regarded as common sense in this era, and he seems to be trying to adapt to some habits—this is mainly reflected in the diet. There are some delicacies that Thomson personally likes, but Xu Yun often Declined due to poor appetite.

   Such as white pudding made with sheep fat, oats and pork liver and lung.

   There are also haggis made with sheep’s heart, liver and lungs, with onions and sheep oil, etc. Xu Yun would refuse such delicious food

   I heard that those orientals like to eat animal offal, it seems that the name is not worthy of the name.

  It's a pity that Xu Yun didn't know what Thomson wanted, otherwise he would have at least thirty ellipses at the beginning.

  God, it’s true that white pudding and haggis in the UK use animal offal, but the problem is.

  The internal organs of tmd have never been smelly.

  For example, when we wash pig lungs in Huaxia, the more delicate ones will be soaked in alkali and vinegar first, and then the dirty blood will be washed repeatedly.

  It is not ready to cook until the lung lobes are white.

  How about British white pudding?

  Its method is to directly crush the freshly killed pork liver, and the more blood, the better—because the blood can be used to seal the edges.

   It's strange that Xu Yun can eat it.

  The topic is returning to the original place.

   Another point that is completely different from the performance of adaptation is Xu Yun's character.

  He is too mature.

  And Xu Yun's maturity is not a feigned gesture, but a maturity and stability that contains life experience. Sometimes Thomson is ashamed.

Therefore.

  He will hand over the wheat to Xu Yun.

  Because what I am going to do next is not life-threatening, but the game inside is equally complicated and abnormal.

   Even for a short moment, a special idea popped up in Thomson's mind.

  But after hesitating again and again, he still gave up the idea.

  Looking at Thomson with a serious face in front of him, Xu Yun pondered for a moment, then replied:

   "Mr. Thomson, Maxwell is my friend. Of course there is no problem in taking care of him."

   "However, may I take the liberty to ask, what are you planning to do next? You don't even have time to go back to the dormitory?"

  Thomson raised his head and looked at Xu Yun for a few seconds, and said frankly:

   "I plan to run for the president of the Cambridge University Student Union this year." (In fact, the Cambridge University Student Union only has the chairman, but although this word is not a masking word, it is said that too many chapters will be locked, so it is called the president)

  Xu Yun was taken aback when he heard the words, and immediately understood.

I see.

  He said how could Thomson look so lonely.

   It turned out that he was planning to run for the president of the Student Federation.

   Unlike other universities.

  Affected by the autonomy of the college, Cambridge University also allows student autonomy.

  So, student organizations have always had a very, very large say in Cambridge University.

   For example, Avelyn before.

  She is just the Minister of the Interior, so she can decide the dormitory allocation from the first year of undergraduates to doctoral students, without the need for school approval.

  This kind of power is actually a bit super-class for students, even if she is a descendant of Mavericks.

  If the Minister of Internal Affairs is like this, let alone the president of the Students' Federation.

   Said bluntly.

  Anyone who can become the president of the University of Cambridge Union, no matter whether he is in the scientific research circle or the political circle in the future, can become a director of the Royal Society or a member of the House of Commons.

  Today, Thomson is one of the few "angels" of the Cambridge Apostolic Society, and has completed the task of receiving wheat, and is indeed qualified to run for the president of the Student Union.

  In addition, it is not difficult to see from the frequent appearances on various occasions after Thomson changed his job to Kelvin in his previous life, this well-known physicist still has some official addictions.

  So it makes perfect sense that he would run for president.

  However, unlike the Minister of the Interior, the president of the Cambridge Students' Union has two special features.

   First of all, there are not all the presidents of the Cambridge University Student Union every year.

   This is not difficult to understand. After all, it is necessary to lead the student representatives of all colleges, so it is so easy to have them every year.

  According to the local timeline.

  The last president of the Student Union of Cambridge University was Tennyson, almost 20 years ago.

   Next.

  Cambridge University has a requirement for the president candidates:

  If you fail in the election, you must immediately graduate and leave the college, and your resume will be in accordance with the graduation rules.

   This is also a requirement that stops many students who would like to run for president.

  肄业, this word is often regarded by many people as Siye, but in fact it is pronounced "yi".

   It's a way of saying just above dropout, which doesn't count as respectable.

  Many companies in later generations refused to accept the jobs of graduates, let alone 1850 today.

   So for Thomson.

   Running for the president of the student union is indeed a game that one cannot afford to lose.

   In addition, if Xu Yun remembers correctly.

  Thomson in the local timeline has not been elected as the president of the Students' Union of Cambridge University.

  He went to work as a professor of natural philosophy at the University of Glasgow while studying for graduate school, so Xu Yun couldn't use the original history for reference or assistance.

   After explaining these.

  Thomson turned and left bedroom 302 without waiting for Mai to finish taking a shower.

I can tell.

  Even a face paralyzed like Thomson is still a bit out of control when it comes to running for the president of the Student Federation.

   After watching Thomson leave.

  Xu Yun walked to his bed and began to sort and check his luggage.

  Before entering the dungeon, he prepared about a dozen items, and the core technology basically covered various time periods.

  In the end, there were only four small boxes left with him in the 1850 copy:

  First is the steel sword. (Before some readers said that 304 is too rubbish, because no matter how good the steel is, it exceeds the productivity level)

   Followed by a small box containing gold.

  Xu Yun bought 240 grams of pure gold offline before entering the dungeon, which is much more than when he went to the dungeon in Northern Song Dynasty.

  After deducting the part that was stolen in London, there are about two hundred grams left.

  In 1717, Maverick or Lao Niu set the price of gold at 3 pounds 17 shillings and 10 pence per troy ounce.

  The pound has since been fixed in gold,

   This price continued until 1931, with only breaks between 1797-1819 and 1914-1925.

   Students who have studied mathematics should know it.

  1 constant balance ounce = 28.3495 grams.

  And 1 troy ounce is equal to 1.0971428 constant balance ounces, which is equal to 31.1034768 grams.

   To put it simply, 1 pound today contains about 7.32238 grams of pure gold.

   In other words.

  Xu Yun currently has about 27 or 28 pounds of gold on his body, which is almost equal to the eight-month income of ordinary people.

  The third one is the flashlight, there is nothing to say.

   As for the fourth

   is a small bottle with a height of four centimeters and a diameter of about 1.5 centimeters.

   There are a few words printed on the bottle:

Nitroglycerin.

  In his previous life, Xu Yun had a heart problem due to years of coding all the time, and he felt a little uncomfortable for a while.

  In addition, several colleagues died of heart problems one after another at that time, so he kept nitroglycerin all year round under the doctor's advice.

  Before this crossing, Xu Yun thought about the small size of this thing but it might have miraculous effects, so he brought it with him.

   Nitroglycerin was invented in 1847 by Sobrello, a chemist at the University of Turin, but it was initially unusable due to its chemical instability.

   This situation will last until 1866, when the Swedish chemist Nobel will solve its stability problem.

   As for its use in the treatment of heart disease, it was later, around 1875.

   So obvious.

   This is another thing that appeared due to the change of the timeline.

   After all, Mavericks is well known for his obsession with alchemy. It is not unusual for him to discover something during the alchemy process that prompts or even directly leads to the appearance of nitroglycerin.

all in all.

  The above four items were all Xu Yun’s possessions in 1850, at most he added a windbreaker and Anta shoes.

  Now he still owes Avelyn a debt of 140,000 pounds. In order to prevent that **** Halo from manifesting the debt in the form of Easter eggs, Xu Yun must consider making money to pay off the debt.

   "Steel Sword, Flashlight, Gold, and Nitroglycerin"

  Xu Yun played with the flashlight he brought with him, with a serious expression on his face.

  The material of the steel parts is obviously better than the weapons of this era, but now the mainstream weapons except the frontier are flintlock guns.

  The flashlight is another popular product, the only selling point is that the light intensity is much higher.

   As for nitroglycerin

  It is actually not easy to shoot in an emergency.

  Because this era is the real period of primitive accumulation, the levels and interests behind heart disease are enough to make many people take risks.

  So at present, if there is a special situation, the most that Xu Yun can get together should be around 100 pounds.

  If you are interested in knowing the goods, you can probably increase it to about 120.

   This should be the maximum amount he can raise at present under the circumstances of changing the bottom line of the seller.

   What can one hundred pounds do?

   "It's hard to handle"

   Just when Xu Yun was a little distressed, wheat's voice suddenly came from his ear:

   "Male top? What male top?"

  Xu Yun turned his head and found that Mai Mai was wearing a pair of big underpants at this time, and she came out of the bathroom while wiping herself.

  He shook his head slightly, and said vaguely:

   "It's okay, I'm thinking about class."

  Mait nodded in a naive manner as before, and plucked his already thin blond hair:

   "Huh? Where's Mr. Thomson? Is he gone?"

  Xu Yunjian pondered for a moment, but decided to tell Thomson that Mai Mai plans to run for the president of the student union:

   "That's right, Mr. Thomson is going to run for the President of the Students' Union of Cambridge University, so you have to be ready too."

  Wheat was stunned for a moment, and blurted out a sentence:

   "Am I ready? What's none of my business?"

  Xu Yun bent down and picked up a towel, raised his head and threw it at him:

   "Turn back to your Scottish accent, this is a serious novel?"

   Then he paused.

   Xin said that this idiot who looks somewhat similar to An Like in "School Boy" is really not politically sensitive:

   "You are stupid. You were introduced to Trinity College by Mr. Thomson. From the outside, you are Mr. Thomson's direct descendant. Oh, I guess it counts."

   "But compared to me, a good-for-nothing, you are the once-in-a-century fee-reduction student at Trinity School, and the second nickname of Maverick Newton has come out."

   "So if something happens to you, do you think it will hit Mr. Thomson's prestige?"

   As he spoke, he looked at the thoughtful Mai Mai again, sighed, and continued:

   "Don't think that you will be invincible if you are the second student who has reduced fees after Newton. At most, others dare not persecute you in terms of personal safety."

   "But if someone cheats you academically, the school may not be able to help you."

  After speaking, Xu Yun shook his head.

  Wheat's character naturally need not be questioned, but his experience is really too lacking.

  It is certainly a good thing to have a little heart, but it is not good to have no heart or lack of heart.

  Follow the original historical track.

  Wheat will have a serious turnaround because of this too 'simple' personality.

  1859.

  Wheat used statistical laws to obtain Maxwell's velocity distribution law for the first time, thus finding a more accurate way to find the statistical average value from the microcosm.

  One winter later, Wheat met Faraday and described his thinking in detail.

   This is also the only time the two meet in their lives.

   As a result, less than two months after Mai returned to Edinburgh, a director of the Royal Society came to the door.

  He told Wheat that Faraday was in poor health and could not reply, so he could only dictate some content to Wheat through the Royal Society.

  "Faraday" suggested that he start with Virta's unconventional transport theory to try to solve the derivation problems of heat conduction and internal friction of gases.

Then

  Wheat actually believed it.

   Well, no more questioning letters.

  So ever since.

  Wheat jumped directly to another pit before the molecular distribution function—that is, the velocity distribution function of later generations has not been derived.

   This trap took him two full years. It was not until a letter with Faraday in 1862 that Wheat knew that he had been tricked.

  So Xiaomai could only overthrow all his thinking in the past two years, reintroduce the concept of relaxation time, and only solve this problem four years later.

  So Xu Yun hopes that through Thomson's incident, Mai Mai can realize the reality that there is a dark side in academia as soon as possible-no matter how bad it is, we must establish some vigilance, right?

  After all, most of the courses for undergraduates and graduate students are different. Without Xu Yun by Mai Mai's side, God knows when he would have jumped into the pit.

Of course.

   Someone may ask.

   That’s not right, Fisherman, isn’t there something wrong with wheat in normal history? (Damn hammer.)

   That's right.

  Wheat in normal history did not have an accident, but Thomson in normal history didn’t run for president, did he?

  Xu Yun can guarantee that the wheat in this dungeon will definitely encounter Wu Zhi taking off his pants—an invisible target.

  He dared to gamble on this with five chapters plus more!

  After that, Xu Yun and Mai Mai mentioned some things that should be paid attention to, and the two had dinner with the leftover bread and potatoes on the road.

   Then he dragged his tired body to bed and rested.

   Nothing to say all night.

   Early the next morning.

  Xu Yun woke up amidst the singing of hymns.

"what"

  He yawned lazily, rubbed his eyes and crawled out of bed.

  Put on your clothes and go to the window, and look out of the window where the singing is coming from.

  Trinity College, as the seminary of the University of Cambridge, will organize a choir in each grade, and sing outside the dormitory building at a fixed time every morning, and serve as an alarm clock by the way.

  Back then, a filmmaker in Europe and the United States made a small movie, which was roughly the thing that was buzzing when the choir sang, but the platform was taken away by a wave that day.

   Then Xu Yun glanced at Mai Mai who was sleeping like a dead pig, and decided to go to the water room to get some hot water first.

  As a result, as soon as he went out, he saw Jones Bird who was also yawning—that is, the oily Snape from yesterday.

  The senior was quite enthusiastic when they met yesterday, so Xu Yun smiled and nodded to him:

   "Senior Jones, good morning."

   But what he didn't expect was.

  Yesterday, the senior who greeted him with a smile only gave him a faint glance when he saw him, and walked towards the other end of the corridor.

  Xu Yun:

  “.”

  The life of this 21st century science and technology university bully at Cambridge University in 1850, just opened the curtain with a blank eye.

Note:

   It’s still all-night codewords, typos or waking up to change, ask for a monthly pass!

  The data of this month is very important, and I can’t say too much about the specifics. In short, I’m begging for a monthly pass. There is no double monthly pass this month. If you have a monthly pass, please support it!

   Written at the top. Recently, there are many new readers who come to Qidian. I’m afraid that everyone is unclear, and the author’s words are free.

   free

   Free.

   Say it three times.

   Then talk about things.

   Some people feel that the foundation of Cambridge University is too long. Let me explain here.

   This is a very critical copy, because according to the practice of most scholars of Bawen, the protagonist with this word count is almost going to study abroad now.

But for me personally, I actually don’t like the main character going abroad, because there are too many plots of black hands in reality. I gave many examples in the chapter of Xiaomai, in fact, I want to tell everyone that it is not safe for talents to go abroad. .

   On the other hand, the level of top foreign universities is indeed higher than that in China, and various resources cannot be compensated by the protagonist having a system or halo.

   In the end, I set up such a 1850 after the magic reform, a blowout period of modern physics talents. The protagonist will also absorb and learn knowledge while guiding. As for other settings, I will not disclose it.

   Therefore, I will introduce the various situations in the current period in more detail, and at the same time avoid whitewashing some people who participated in the invasion of China. Tired
