1890 King of Southeast Asia

Things involving the interests of multiple countries are always a mess, don't think about solving them in a short time.

In the past, the Qing Empire signed contracts quickly, and they often failed on the battlefield, so it didn't take much time. If the old witch doesn't interfere this time, it would be good to get results within half a year.

Liu Yiming didn't care too much, but received good news from Rutherford and came to the Institute of Atomic Research of South China Institute of Technology.

That is where the large particle accelerator is located.

"Your Majesty, your conjecture has been completely confirmed. After many verifications, some uranium atoms will be broken into metal barium and gas krypton, and the experiment has been a complete success. It's really... this is exciting news." Rutherford received Liu Yiming with a smile on his face.

There are still some problems, such as some mass loss, but they didn't find the reason.

"Congratulations, the transformation of the physics community will start with you. It is a great concept to study the mechanism of mutual transformation of matter and make use of it." Liu Yiming shook hands with Rutherford and looked at the huge laboratory.

"This is inseparable from your sponsorship, the honorable Emperor of the Empire. As for the transformation of the physics community, we think this has just begun." Rutherford smiled embarrassedly.

If there was no support from Nanhua, without this particle accelerator built with dozens of professionals at a high price, and the strong support from various industries, it would take a long time to carry out the experiment to this point.

After all... this experiment did not produce any output - at least Rutherford could not see it.

"Long-term experiments also bring us many problems. For example, we are sure that the experiment is correct, but the repeatability of the experiment is uncertain. Sometimes uranium does not change at all, and sometimes a metal that has never been seen before appears.

Combined with the more convincing hypotheses in recent years, we hope to conduct further experiments - to thoroughly understand the properties of atoms." As the instrument provider for the entire experiment, Tesla stood up with a ball of carefully groomed hair and said.

If Rutherford just likes Nanhua because of the sufficient funds, studious students, sufficient equipment and raw material support here.

Tesla loves Nanhua because of his wild ideas, unconventional academic circles, free research directions and atmosphere.

He left Europe because he couldn't stand the corruption of "authoritative experts". In the United States, the active scientific atmosphere made him extremely happy, but he still met "tech capitalists" like Edison.

But generally speaking, the scientific atmosphere in the United States is still far better than that in Europe. After all, to be a scientist here, you don't need to graduate from a prestigious school, you don't need aristocratic status, you don't need the title of university professor, you just need to be able to produce results, and of course, the most important thing is that the results can make money.

In Nanhua, a technological desert and backward place in the eyes of Europeans, he found something better.

For example, students who can provide a lot of inspiration can also take on a lot of work.

For example, they are not bound by traditional academic debates, especially here no one will use electricity to kill an elephant to prove that alternating current is harmful. The power grid that Nanhua is building is also transmitted in the form of alternating current.

This is undoubtedly another recognition of Tesla.

Tesla only went to college for one year, and the rest of the time he was self-taught. Americans did not look down on him for this, so he liked the United States.

But he was not good at financial management and often made himself very tight.

Later, he was suppressed by the consortium. In the United States, the consortium is larger than the government, so Tesla's name was deleted from the textbooks.

"Sir Tesla, if I remember correctly, you should be more focused on the research of electrical and mechanical engineering. Of course, I am not questioning your academic level, but I am just curious about when you got involved in the field of atomic nuclei?" Liu Yiming was stunned for a moment. He had never heard that Tesla was involved in atomic research?

It may be that Liu Yiming remembered it wrongly. In addition to those who have been assigned to Nanhua, he only remembered Fermi, Oppenheimer and Einstein. About Tesla, he only remembered alternating current, radar, radio and X-rays.

Of course, there are also wireless power transmission and the Tunguska explosion.

"Sir?" Tesla was stunned for a moment.

"Oh! In a few days, it will be the 10th anniversary of Nanhua University of Technology. In these years, Nanhua University of Technology has provided nearly 10,000 talents to the society.

The Ministry of Education has specially proposed to grant honorary titles to outstanding scholars and scientists. The government has approved it, and your names are on it." Liu Yiming explained with a smile.

This is not a proposal from the Ministry of Education. According to Chinese tradition, scholars and titles are not related, not to mention that most of these scientists are Westerners.

Although Nanhua advocates great integration, the inertia of thinking is very strong. In order to win over these people and let them serve Nanhua better, non-hereditary honorary titles are nothing.

"This... Wow... Thank you... Your Majesty." Tesla was shocked, and bowed with his fists at a loss, performing a strange ceremony.

"This is what you deserve. Now, let's talk about the new experiment. I'm not a professional, but you should tell me what you need and what you want." Liu Yiming nodded slightly and accepted this ceremony.

No wonder Tesla was so excited. He was born in a commoner family and dropped out of college for only one year due to financial reasons. Although he invented many things, he did not change these labels.

In Europe, commoners and nobles are two classes.

The nobility of the South China Empire is certainly not as valuable as that of Europe in the West. After all, it is just a new empire, but South China is also a member of the civilized world (it entered through Spain), and the title of nobility is recognized.

In order to protect their own rights and interests, the nobles will treat even the nobles of the enemy country as nobles. This is a matter of position and does not involve other things.

"Oh! You are too modest. We want..." Tesla forgot the words for a moment, not the purpose of the experiment, but the Chinese vocabulary.

"The same raw materials, the same process, but there are three different experimental results. We hope to conduct research based on this." Rutherford continued.

"Yes, Mr. Ernest has discovered some strange phenomena and believes that our understanding of uranium is not sufficient. We hope to conduct a new round of experiments to find out whether uranium contains a substance that is particularly similar to uranium." Tesla added.

"Similar substances?" Liu Yiming thought of the difference between 235 and 238. The former is what he wants, but it is difficult to separate it now.

"Yes, we think that uranium contains other substances, which in turn affects the results of the impact experiment." Rutherford nodded.

"Then what do you need?" Liu Yiming smiled. This is the process of finding isotopes.

At this time, the concept of isotopes has sprouted. Humans have discovered more than 30 radioactive elements. Some of them have the same chemical properties, but the radioactivity is completely different. Some people have noticed this situation, but have not dug deeper.

Liu Yiming doesn't understand. He only knows about isotopes and isotopes, and only knows that the relative masses are different, but there is no mass spectrometer at this time...

"We hope to get a site and more assistants..." Tesla took out a piece of paper and gave it to Liu Yiming.

"You haven't said yet, when did you get involved in the atomic field, and how long did you use it?" Liu Yiming asked while taking it.

"Since I designed this instrument..." Tesla pointed to the observation instrument and said something that Liu Yiming heard in the clouds.

"These are all very simple, but there is definitely not enough space in the school, so we can only change to another place." Liu Yiming nodded after reading the list.

Liu Yiming had never heard of many things, but there were prices at the back. The total price of equipment and materials was a little over 1.4 million, just the price of a laboratory.

Liu Yiming had to sigh that scientific research really burns money, and it takes several years or more than ten years, and it may not be shipped. No wonder big capital is either selling houses or selling skins - making money quickly and at low cost.

"Also, what do you want so much uranium for? It's not that I think too much, but uranium is not easy to store. Mr. Rutherford knows it." Liu Yiming looked at the number of raw materials at the end of the paper in confusion.

Metal uranium - 10 tons.

"The experiments we do require a lot of uranium. In fact, we will convert uranium into other forms to find these different substances and compare their chemical properties, etc." Rutherford nodded.

"After the laboratory is completed, the uranium from Australia will be directly transported to the new laboratory." Liu Yiming didn't know whether this method was correct, but trial and error was an important part of the scientific journey.

Most importantly, Nanhua has not been able to break through the 20,000-rpm centrifuge, which does not meet the minimum requirements of the gas centrifugal separation method.

In this case, why not let them try it themselves?

"We believe that this is the last concession, and Tsarist Russia will not make any more compromises." Mikhail still spoke passionately, as if he regarded this place as a podium.

"I can't see where your sincerity is. We have made concessions, but I don't see the sincerity of Tsarist Russia." Tang Shaochuan glared at Mikhail.

After a week of private communication, Japan chose to make small concessions and gave up many unrealistic rights, but still demanded trade, territory, and compensation.

It's just that the compensation was reduced to 150 million taels.

Tsarist Russia was even more single, saying that all territorial and sovereignty issues could be abandoned, but 500 million rubles could not be less, and autonomy in the Mongolian region was also necessary.

If that was all, Tieliang would have agreed. It was just money, and he didn't have to pay it anyway. But the Russian Empire proposed that the Russian-occupied area be used as collateral before the repayment was settled.

"Is this the final condition proposed by your country after the discussion?" Lin Pingzhi stared at Mikhail in surprise.

His peripheral vision was looking at the silent American.

"If that's the case, then I can only regretfully announce that this negotiation has come to an end." Lin Pingzhi shook his head regretfully.

"Wait a minute..."
