Chapter 47 The review of the boss

The British were really crazy about money. Relying on the Qing Dynasty's basic duty-free import drugs, and their advocacy and fawning on foreign countries, they dared to sell them at high prices if they add some foreign goods.

Anyway, with Li Yu's limited knowledge, he would never believe that this kind of cure can be achieved.

Guo Wei took the two of them to a small room behind.

"Baiziye, the few cosmetics on the cabinets are those we have already launched in Shanghai, but Beijing does not allow them to be sold now."

Shanghai was indeed more open at this time. As for the current capital, there are many stubborn people, and there is indeed greater resistance. After all, even Cixi herself doesn't like to use cosmetics. If she could take the lead, it might be better.

Guo Wei pointed to several bottles and said, "This bottle of top-quality flower water is our best perfume product."

Li Yu took it over and looked at it. It was indeed not high-end enough for ordinary glass bottles. Fortunately, he saw that there were many other categories on the table, "I think there are still some bottles of rose water there!"

Guo Wei explained: "Rose water is used to wash your face, not perfume."

Li Yu was a little embarrassed. He really didn't know cosmetics.

The method of carrying the vibration is simple and crude: "No matter what kind of water it is, you can get a few bottles."

"Good solution!"

Li Yu suddenly figured it out. Since the grade was not enough, let’s make up the quantity.

It is completely possible for the queen to have a perfume bath by herself. Now no one dares to pour the perfume into the bathtub to take a bath. In this way, although it is a bit extravagant and wasteful, the perfume sold by Watsons is not expensive for her.

And if they knew that the reason why the perfume industry in Europe was prospering was because Europeans didn’t like bathing, and they didn’t know what they thought.

You don’t like taking a bath, so I spray perfume. I just poured it into the bathtub to bathe, and I’m not the leader in the concept.

As long as you explain this to Queen Longyu, although it is a bit logical, she will definitely be surrounded!

"Put it all! Pack it and take it away!"

Guo Yifu was so happy that he liked such a generous customer! But he still explained the uses of different products to them: "Baizi, this bottle of tender jade liquid is toner, and the bottles of acne, freckle, and white food potions are for removing freckles, and... "

"Okay, okay!" Li Yu couldn't listen to these names that made him feel ashamed. "The imperial concubine is not stupid, so she will definitely use it. Just take a few instructions."

The price of things is really not cheap for ordinary people. Li Yu saw that the price of the bottle of rose water costs more than three cents per Otaru. The instructions and the advertisements in the "Disclaimer" are also the most powerful: this is a product that Queen Victoria of the British Empire used!

Haha! I’m deceiving the people of the Qing Dynasty who don’t know the truth! The Watsons never left the country for more than a hundred years.

Anyway, take the things back first, and wait for the fourth princess to return home.

Royal Society of Science, London, UK.

Lord Kelvin opened the office door with a cigar in his mouth. Logically speaking, people of his status should not always smoke in official places, but he has surpassed ordinary people. With his status, no one dares to say anything.

"President Huggins, I'm calling me over so quickly. Is there any good tobacco leaves?"

Huggins, president of the Royal Society, came over with a manuscript, "There are no tobacco leaves, but I think you are more interested in this thing."

Lord Kelvin glanced at it, and the beautiful font with his hand was very familiar, "Is it sent by a Chinese named Li Yu?"

President Huggins nodded: "I have read the paper and write about the field of thermodynamics that you are best at."

"Thermodynamics?" Lord Kelvin would never have thought that after writing about rays in the first article, Li Yu immediately started writing a paper in a brand new field. Was he too bold? He wondered: "Is there any new meaning?"

President Huggins said: "There are still many new ideas, and his understanding of thermodynamics is really thorough."

"Oh?" Lord Kelvin put down the cigar in his hand, picked up the paper and sat aside and looked carefully.

About fifteen or sixteen minutes later, Lord Kelvin finished turning the last page and breathed a sigh of relief.

President Huggins asked, “How?”

Lord Kelvin looked forward and said, "As always rigorous, and it seems that he is a firm supporter of atomism, standing on Boltzman's side."

President Huggins said: "Yes, he was not only proficient in using Claucius' theory, but also used Boltzmann's equations to make many extended derivations. I couldn't see any problem at all, and I couldn't even understand many places, so I invited you."

Lord Kelvin picked up the cigar again, "The first half of the article summarized the entire foundation of thermodynamics. It can be seen that he is indeed proficient in thermodynamic theory, but these contents are obviously just a prelude to the foreshadowing. The most exciting thing is the double derivation of microscopic and macroscopic using the Boltzmann equation, which really amazed me."

"You think it's OK to write, too?" asked President Huggins.

"No problem, and it is very innovative. But I have not done any in-depth research on Boltzmann's theory. You know, this level of mathematics is not my strength."

President Huggins said: "Of course I know that although I am not proficient in thermodynamics, I know a little about it, but I really know very little about Boltzmann's theory."

Lord Kelvin sucked a cigar and asked, "Is Professor Boltzmann in Vienna now?"

President Huggins nodded: "I heard that he is not in good condition recently and is not very harmonious with Austrian scholars."

Lord Kelvin shook his head: "His personality! Although I am somewhat praised for his theory, this person is indeed difficult to get along with. So, let your editor copy a paper and send it to Boltzmann for a look. Professional issues need him to review."

President Huggins said in surprise: "You can't make the decision on this article? I originally thought I could publish it with your nod."

Lord Kelvin pointed to Li Yu's thesis and said with a smile: "I really can't make a decision today. The content he wrote is both breadth and depth. I can agree with most of it, but only Mr. Boltzmann's part involves derivation."

"I understand, I'll write to him today."

President Huggins could not have thought that even Lord Kelvin could not make a decision on the paper on thermodynamics. What did this Chinese named Li Yu write!

In fact, Lord Kelvin is still very humble. If he knew that 100 years later, the International Metering Conference used the Boltzmann constant to define the thermodynamic temperature unit, he would have been very pleased.

Of course, the formal use of the Kelvin unit was 50 years later.

Two people will still be connected in the world of science.
