In fact, Roland's words were not exaggerated at all, and even Nick secretly praised his precise vision.In the history that Nick knew in his previous life, penicillin was indeed the most valuable thing in Europe—penicillin.During World War II, the unprecedented large-scale war led to an unprecedented explosion of science and technology. The famous guns and radars came into being at that time, and penicillin, which was also called the three major inventions in World War II, also turned the tide of the war.At that time, in the black market of international smuggling, apart from dollars and gold, only cigarettes, alcohol and penicillin could serve as currencies.Aristocrats, dignitaries and wealthy merchants would spend hundreds of ounces of gold for a case of penicillin.

Under Nick's intervention, penicillin was produced in advance before the war. The relatively peaceful environment allowed people to pursue it only as a miracle drug for treating syphilis and pneumonia, giving him a relatively loose and free development space, but Nick Even Roland understood that once the war came, forces that realized the true value of penicillin would pounce on them like wolves, and this moment would never be far away.

The wheel of history is rolling forward, and the cloud of war hangs over mankind all the time.Just last year, the Nazi Party has become the second largest party in Germany, and Hitler's rise to power is imminent. With the connivance of Britain and France, Italy has also successfully invaded Ethiopia. Fascism is stretching out its tentacles of temptation and gradually revealing its greed side.

And what hurt him the most, in the near future, in the far east, on September [-]th...

"Nick?" Roland, who finished a glass of wine, interrupted Nick's thinking. He worried, "Is there something wrong? Your face is quite scary."

"No, I'm fine." Nick lowered his eyes, picked up the bottle to refill the empty glass, "I'm just thinking, war." He raised his glass to signal, and then drank it under Roland's surprised gaze do.

============

As an unaccustomed traveler, Nick was unable to integrate into his new life for a long time. He often joked that he was playing the main story of World War II, trying to separate his positions and feelings in the two lives from a bystander perspective.Fate made him reborn in real history. This is not a game of civilization, not a battle for hegemony, not a historical fan. Every peck and drink is clearly arranged, and it is definitely not something that can be transferred by personal will.Just as the "Treaty of Frankfurt" signed in 1871 to end the Franco-Prussian War set the cause for World War I, the "Treaty of Versailles" in 1919 also planted the seeds for World War II early.The contradictions between classes and between countries have already developed to the point of irreconcilability. The economic crisis that seems to have fallen from the sky has added fuel to the fire. World wars are inevitable. Under the general trend of history, everyone can only do their best. .

After drinking, watching the drunk Roland leave in the car, Nick estimated the distance from the tavern to his home and decided to walk home slowly.The fog is getting heavier, and all kinds of lights are blurred, turning the whole world into a watercolor painting.Halfway through the walk, it started to rain. Nick and other passers-by who were used to the weather in London unhurriedly held up umbrellas. He hadn't had such a leisurely time for a long time. Listening to the sound of the rain, looking at the street scene, he couldn't help guessing, which one is the Broken Pot Bar that he couldn't see, which street hides Diagon Alley behind it, which two houses are sandwiched between Blake, and which foggy Flying on a broomstick...

When he got home, Nick was surprised to find everyone in the living room.Anna ran over to take the umbrella that was still dripping and dried it with a towel. Tom sat on the sofa angrily and didn't speak. Su Yan, who only came to teach Tom Chinese on weekends since Anna became a teacher, was there. Nick said hello and continued to watch with Arnold, yes, the crowd, they were all watching Mr. Big Riddle repairing the piano.

"What's going on?" Nick asked Tom in a low voice, sitting on the sofa.

"I just started practicing the piano, and he came out and said that the pitch of the piano was unbearable..." Tom clenched his fists and gritted his teeth. "He also said that I am deaf, and I can say goodbye to music from now on."

After listening to Nick, he felt a sense of sympathy. His elder brother taught him the piano. The boring knowledge of music theory and endless practice almost made him give up from getting started. He originally wanted to practice and play. He usually relaxes and watches. As long as the spectrum can be played, it is fine, but this idea was criticized by the elder brother as useless.That period of history dominated by the Great Demon King is simply unforgettable!

"He said that to me back then," Nick spread his hands, telling Tom that he was helpless, "Maybe you should go learn it, and I learned it too." But I didn't learn it...

Not far away, Mr. Big Riddle, who was carefully correcting the sound, sneered sarcastically, making Nick shiver uncontrollably.Fortunately, even the Great Demon King himself couldn't be too distracted during the sound calibration process, so he didn't talk to the two on the sofa after that.He started from the middle C, and calibrated the three strings one by one. From time to time, he had to repair the small parts that he thought were faulty, and lubricate the slow ones...

Boring single notes or chords sounded repeatedly, Anna quickly lost interest and ran to wash clothes, Su Yan also felt bored and said goodbye to Nick, and Nick asked Arnold to send her away.Tom strained his ears at first to make out the difference between each tone, and after an hour his face became dull.In contrast, Nick, who had given up on himself a long time ago, seemed very happy. Seeing Thomson's loveless expression, he snickered and pulled him into the study to continue discussing school issues.

Nick put two stacks of materials with rich pictures and texts on the table: "The school materials are here. These are the schools that are close to home and you can go to school. These are the boarding schools I recommended before. Oh, okay, since you insist..." Seeing Tom's expression of extreme resistance when he heard the accommodation, Nick compromised and took the second stack down again.

Nick said: "Although it's elementary education, you still have to choose carefully. After all, you won't have the chance to go to public school." Then he saw Tom's surprised expression, and closed his eyes angrily, "God, I forgot to tell you this gone."

"Yes, you will not go to public school. After you are 11 years old, you will go to a magic school, and you will spend seven full years there."

Tom was stunned: "Magic school? Are there all wizards there?"

Nick smiled and said, "That's right, the teacher and the students are all wizards."

After hearing this, Tom didn't know whether to be excited or disappointed. He thought that there were very few wizards, but he didn't expect that there were so many wizards that he could open a school!

"You must cherish these six years. I hope you can systematically master the basic common sense before going to the magic school, because as far as I know, wizards are quite ignorant of some aspects. Although you can continue to study after graduating from the magic school Applying to college, but who knows what the future holds?"

After briefly introducing the advantages and disadvantages of several schools, Nick drove the distraught Tom to sleep: "You can study slowly tomorrow."

He let out a breath, and just about to go back to his room to sleep, he heard the big devil downstairs announcing the end of his work with a series of perfect octave slides.

A magnetic voice said the most terrifying words: "Come down, play me a song."

The author has something to say: I was wrong, I was guilty...
