...The cargo ship Earl slowly stopped at the dock.
The sailors with pipes in their mouths lazily leaned against the side of the ship, admiring the surrounding scenery.
Captain Spitz walked out of the cabin. The weather was really good today. Although he kept encountering British and French warships along the way, the "Earl" flying the American flag still arrived without any danger.
"Captain Spitz, thank you for your help." Deng Yong came over and shook his hand politely.
Spitz made a gesture of counting money: "My friend, although it is full of danger, you can get a lot of money. We Americans have a saying that the fruit that is half empty on the cliff is the most delicious."
Deng Yong laughed "haha": "I have deposited your reward in the designated bank." "OK!" Spitz whistled excitedly: "Hey, hey, you lazy guys, hurry up and help.
Unload the goods!”
Huge cargo boxes containing God knows what were brought down. They were very, very heavy. Some boxes were even difficult for more than a dozen people to lift.
Dozens of foreigners walked out of the cabin one after another. They had not seen the sun for so many days, and when they suddenly came out, their eyes seemed very uncomfortable.
"Gentlemen, the end of our voyage has arrived in China!" Deng Yong said with a smile.
These foreigners breathed a sigh of relief. God, we have finally arrived. It has been a long and dangerous voyage.
A large group of soldiers came over with an officer in their arms. As soon as they arrived in front of Deng Yong, the officer gave a military salute: "Mr. Deng?" Seeing Deng Yong nod, the officer hurriedly said: "Defender of the Revolution [Revolution]
Jiang Zhongzheng, director of the Generalissimo's Office of the Military Government, welcomes Mr. Deng back to the country as Generalissimo!" He lowered his voice and said: "The Generalissimo originally wanted to welcome him in person, but there are too many foreigners here and he is afraid of being too ostentatious.
So destiny is coming, and the Generalissimo is waiting for you sir!"
"Okay!" Deng Yong's voice also lowered: "These foreigners are specially invited by me. They must be escorted to Hengshuai safely without missing a hair!"
"yes!"
"Heng Shuai!"
"Hua Yong!"
Wang Hengyue, who had been waiting anxiously for a long time, saw Deng Yong finally appeared in front of him after a long absence. He hurriedly walked towards him, looked at Deng Yong up and down, and then said after a long time: "Okay, you are very good!" Wang Hengyue really looked for it.
There are no other words.
In Europe, his loyal subordinate has brought him huge profits. It is because of his efforts that a steady stream of money flows to China. It is because of his efforts that he can be in Europe.
When the battlefield is in full swing, Wang Hengyue can make a lot of money from it.
Without him, Wang Hengyue might not be in such a big situation today.
Although he is not as eye-catching as the officers on the battlefield, the role he plays is beyond the reach of those officers and can never be imagined.
"Heng Shuai, this matter is of great importance, so I personally escorted those people back." Deng Yong was no longer polite: "It is almost an open secret that Germany is about to be defeated. Some of them are pessimistic about Germany's future.
, I came here with me for fear of being punished after the war. Some of them I exchanged with the Germans for a large amount of strategic materials. I have signed a ten-year long-term work contract with them, and now they are all outside.
Waiting in the hall.
"Okay, okay!" Wang Hengyue said repeatedly: "No matter how high the price is, these people are worth it. Ten years is too short. I have to find a way to keep them in China for the rest of their lives. Let's go and see.
go!"
In the hall, the foreigners were sitting around, some curiously sipping Chinese tea, and some drinking coffee specially prepared for them.
Perhaps the only similarity is that the faces of these foreigners are all serious and nervous!
None of them had any idea of what they would encounter when they came from distant Germany to a completely unfamiliar capital city.
When Wang Hengyue, wearing a general marshal uniform, walked in, everyone stood up.
"This is Wang Hengyue, the Generalissimo of China's Protective Military Government!" Deng Yong introduced at the side.
"Sit, sit, please sit down." Wang Hengyue said with a smile on his face.
These foreigners did not expect to see the Generalissimo in Deng Yong's mouth so quickly. When they were bored on the boat, Deng Yong carefully told them many magical stories about the Generalissimo, which had fully mobilized them.
their curiosity.
When I actually met him, I found that the young Marshal was really enviable.
Deng Yong pointed to a bald middle-aged man and said: "This is the greatest chemist in Germany and even the world. He was awarded a doctorate by the Royal Technical University of Germany at the age of 19. He is the first person in the world to create chemical products from the air.
Ammonia scientist, Dr. Fritz Haber!”
Oh my goodness!
Although he was mentally prepared, Wang Hengyue was still shocked by the name!
Deng Yong actually brought this person to me?
Fritz Haber, the world-famous German physical chemist! Those who praised Haber said he was an angel, bringing harvest and joy to mankind, and a saint who made bread from air; those who cursed him said he was a devil, giving
Human beings have brought disaster, pain and death. The tit-for-tat and completely different evaluations, referring to the same person, are shocking: This is Fritz Haber!
He was the first scientist to create ammonia from the air. This freed mankind from the passive situation of relying on natural nitrogen fertilizers and accelerated the development of world agriculture. Haber has since become a world-famous scientist.
Soon, yes, this year, the Swedish Academy of Sciences will award this year’s Nobel Prize in Chemistry to Hubble!
What he is most famous for is probably not the creation of ammonia from the air, but the fact that during World War I, when he was the director of the chemical arsenal, Haber was responsible for the development and production of chlorine, mustard gas and other poisonous gases, and used them in the war.
, causing nearly one million casualties.
After the outbreak of World War I, the great enthusiasm for war triggered by the war made Haber, the director of the Wilhelm Institute of Physical Chemistry and Electrochemistry, devote himself to the development of poison gas. He turned his laboratory into a military institution serving the war.
, and served as the scientific director of Germany's poison gas warfare.
This great scientist not only dispatched scientific researchers to the troops, but also personally visited the front line to select the garrison location for the chlorine gas troops.
The following year, at Haber's suggestion, the German army used poison gas on the battlefield for the first time and effectively hit the enemy. However, when the poison gas warfare plan was conveyed to the German division commanders, it was rejected by all commanders. Only the troops
Duke Albrecht, who was besieged in the city of Ypres, supported it. More than three months later, the "gas war" was officially born in the Battle of Ypres, which poisoned about 15,000 people in the British and French coalition forces and took away the lives of more than 5,000 people.
destiny.
Harper's wife Clark is also a doctor of chemistry and is very aware of the dangers of poison gas. When she begged her husband to give up this inhumane weapon, he not only cursed her, but also claimed that poison gas is a "humane weapon to end the war as soon as possible." Harper believes that as a war,
The poison gas of the tool was no more cruel than the "flying projectiles". In anger and desperation, Clark committed suicide with Harper's pistol. But this did not prompt the fanatical patriot to calm down. On the contrary, he firmly believed that what he had done
Everything is "for the peace of mankind and the war for the motherland."
God, God! Wang Hengyue called God twice in his heart, a God he never believed in.
Genius, Deng Yong is such a genius, he really got this poisonous gas master for himself!
Deng Yong whispered in his ear: "After the Germans began to use poison gas on a large scale on the battlefield, I noticed this person. After the United States landed in Europe, I used strategic materials worth more than 110,000 British pounds to remove him.
Count Chinke is asking for it." "This 110,000-dollar list? More than 1.2 million oceans? It's worth, it's worth, it's so worth it, I want 10 million!" Wang Hengyue will not care about money at this time.
, couldn’t help but say with joy.
Deng Yong smiled and said: "But it is not easy to persuade this person to come to [China]. Except that Count Chinke almost gave an order in the name of the country, and I also promised him to come to [China]."
Open a special laboratory for him and design an equipment and plan for extracting gold from seawater to cope with the huge war compensation that Germany will encounter after its defeat in the future." "Extracting gold from seawater? That is unlikely to be realized.
It's better not to have such fantasies.
Wang Hengyue muttered, and then said: "Tell him, no matter what he wants, I will satisfy him, let alone refining gold from sea water, even if he wants to refining diamonds from the air, I will agree!" Deng Yong said to Haber with a smile.
After a few words, Haber bowed slightly in an unusually serious manner as a sign of gratitude.
Well, it’s a good thing you didn’t stay in Germany. Otherwise, as a Jew, after living for more than ten or twenty years, you would not be called Fritz Haber, but would be insultingly called Jew Haber.
Wang Pingyue thought in his heart.
Deng Yong then pointed at two more people and said: "Max Planck, president of the University of Berlin: Max von Laue, the discoverer of the crystal X-ray diffraction phenomenon, a great physicist." Wang Hengyue's head was dizzy.
Happiness, I don’t know anything else except happiness.
The concept of these two countries is not important. Science is their only god. Well, if you love science, I will give you all the conditions for studying science, no matter what!
"Max Planck's wife and daughter passed away successively, and his eldest son died on the battlefield not long ago. He was heartbroken and completely disappointed with the German war. Laue was one of the authorities in the German physics community and the German Physical Society
President. He is an upright man and had no intention of engaging in political activities, but politics happened to find him." Deng Yong introduced in a low voice: "So when I approached them to come to [China] to conduct their scientific research,
It didn’t take much effort.”
Wang Hengyue nodded.
It is much easier to invite these two people than to invite Haber!!.
