The mage in the late Qing Dynasty

Sure enough, the police began to collect the bodies.

There is no need to collect evidence, it was Zhao Chuanxin who did it.

He couldn't go to court, but there was no evidence to prove it, and the murderer didn't even deny it.

Just report it.

Nikola Tesla still couldn't remember who Zhao Chuanxian was.

But he had some ideas.

A person who is rich, willful, and looks down upon by no one is the best investor.

He said: "My invention can bring you wealth, as long as you are willing to invest."

Zhao Chuanxin asked him: "Why do you have no money? As an inventor, you are so poor that you can't even spend ten thousand dollars. What is your job as an inventor?"

Nikola Tesla watched the policemen busy and gave Zhao Chuanxin an overview of the situation.

It turned out that in 1901, J.P. Morgan funded Nikola Tesla to research radio technology and use it to build a transatlantic broadcasting system.

Nikola Tesla used the money to build Wardenclyffe Tower.

Before the tower was completed, Nikola Tesla hurriedly moved in to conduct experiments.

However, the inventor Marconi took the lead in 1901 and took the lead in completing the transatlantic radio transmission experiment.

At this time, J.P. Morgan had invested $150,000 in Nikola Tesla.

Originally, old Morgan could have persisted a little longer.

But later he learned that Nikola Tesla actually wanted to build five giant towers to enable wireless information exchange around the world.

Old Morgan looked at it and thought, this is not bad, how much fucking money does this cost?

He believed that Nikola Tesla's research had no commercial value and immediately withdrew his investment.

Nikola Tesla owed Morgan Sr. a huge debt.

Now he wants to borrow Zhao Chuanxin's Thor's Hammer on credit.

Zhao Chuanxin touched his chin: "Suppose, for $150,000 for one tower and $750,000 for five towers, you can achieve global wireless information exchange?"

Nikola Tesla shook his head. This time he chose to tell the truth: "It should require more money. The research and development has not been completed yet, and follow-up maintenance will be required. The investment is far greater than this amount. But once the technology matures, in the future It will only save more and more money.”

Zhao Chuanxin thought of something and looked at him sideways: "I haven't read much, so don't lie to me. As far as I know, investment in updating technology will only increase."

He thought of a well-known company in the 21st century that had a hard time with Europe and the United States and was subsequently sanctioned.

The annual investment in R\u0026D is astronomical.

My peers couldn't even think about it.

Technology is like a competitive game. The technology becomes more and more sophisticated. If you can't do it, you will be eliminated.

Nikola Tesla: "You actually know this?"

"Don't fool me, just tell me the truth."

Nikola Tesla was helpless: "Then let me be honest, as long as I am alive, money will continue to be invested, and I will not let technology stagnate."

After all, Zhao Chuanxin had witnessed many more miraculous things. He said something shocking: "Actually, radio is not limited to radios and telegraphs. Have you ever thought about inventing a mobile phone that has a The screen can display writing. Information is transmitted between phones through radio, and writing will appear on the screen.

For example, I sent you a message from China - Nicholas, have you eaten?

You answered in New York - Beef stew with potatoes is full and your stomach is bloated. "

Nikola Tesla, like Benjamin Goldberg, had an extremely realistic imagination.

Their abilities are exactly the same.

When it comes to imagination alone, Benjamin Goldberg is even better. But if you compare the hands-on ability of the two, Nikola Tesla is stronger.

After all, people can invent things, but Benjamin Goldberg relied on his master to help him with the other half.

After listening to Zhao Chuanxin's words, a person with such a rich imagination as Nikola Tesla became excited: "This... you are really different from others."

Zhao Chuanxin continued: "On a mobile phone, if you install a miniature typewriter, you can send messages at any time and put them in your pocket after sending them. On the mobile phone, install an energy storage module like the one in my Thor's Hammer, and the power can be It lasts for a day or more, and we can talk to others anytime, anywhere.”

Nikola Tesla's eyes widened: "This..."

Zhao Chuanxin said: "You can even incorporate a camera into it to make real-time video calls. There are close friends in the world, and we are like neighbors in the world!"

"This..." Nikola Tesla didn't know what he was thinking, and added: "You can also make the mobile phone discharge and use it as a weapon; you can spit fireballs and use it as an ignition device; you can add light bulbs to illuminate at night... …”

Zhao Chuanxin stopped: "Wouldn't that mean 'I'll kill you three thousand times'?"

A passing policeman heard the conversation between the two and couldn't help but laugh: These two lunatics are daydreaming.

Zhao Chuanxin remembered that later generations would praise this old man, saying that his IQ was astonishing and that he had all kinds of mysterious inventions.

"Old man, have you invented the navigation missile? Radio remote control technology? Do you have an amplifying transmitter? And..." At this point, Zhao Chuanxin's face suddenly became solemn: "Have you ever studied the use of anti-gravity effects? A flying aircraft?”

Nikola Tesla started scratching his hair: "I did have a breakthrough in radio remote control, but it was not very mature. Amplifying transmitters exist. Navigation missiles, what are they? Cannonballs with trajectories?

As for the anti-gravity effect flight, it all exists in my head. How do you know about it?

To do this experiment, the money spent would probably be countless times more than radio. "

Zhao Chuanxin suddenly became excited: "Zhuo, is your anti-gravity flying device shaped like a saucer?"

Damn it, is the case going to be solved?

Nikola Tesla thought for a while: "A cone shape is more reasonable, but for flying, a saucer shape is inevitable, and it can also be other shapes..."

Zhao Chuanxin perked up: Maybe other legends will become popular in the future.

Maybe the alien's flying saucer turned into a flying cigar, a flying cube, a flying barrel, or... a flying sword?

Nikola Tesla raised his hand and pointed to Thor's hammer on his wrist: "I was thinking, when I invented the rotating magnetic generator to charge the atmosphere, could it become a remote-controlled switch? What if If it can be realized, then many of my inventions can be connected together."

That was the original idea.

Zhao Chuanxin suddenly put away all his excited expressions, stood still, lit a cigarette, and his tone became calm: "Nicola, according to you, you have invented countless things in your life, but you are still poor. Do you care? What is it? Money? Honor? Or something else?"

Nikola Tesla made more than 1,000 inventions in his life, but he was still penniless when he died.

He has no spouse, no children, and has spent his whole life studying all kinds of weird things.

Not only did he owe old Morgan a huge debt, but J.P. Morgan even forced American textbooks to exclude Nikola Tesla, and the scientific community united to deny his identity as a scientist.

Thomas Edison, the greedy man, used Nikola Tesla to become rich, and then wanted to attack him again.

Nikola Tesla did not accept Einstein's theory of relativity because his dynamic theory of gravity contradicted the theory of relativity. Of course, Nikola Tesla may not be right, and he may be terribly wrong.

But no matter what, the mainstream scientific community pays attention to talking and singing...

It can be said that he is out of tune with this era, similar to Zhao Chuanxin.

Zhao Chuanxin felt that if his great disciple Benjamin Goldberg had not met him, he would have been squeezed by the times and become a mediocre person, or he would have been persecuted to death, so he would have become unknown.

But now the trajectory of fate has gone astray.

This kid's character has gone astray.

Zhao Chuanxin believed that Nikola Tesla loved nothing but invention.

He is the kind of pure person who dares to be poor, loves science, and is free from vulgar taste.

However,

Nikola Tesla was stunned: "Money? Fame? I want them all."

Blanch...

You don't play by the fucking rules.

Zhao Chuanxin was furious: "What do you want money for? You don't even have a wife."

"I..." Nikola Tesla frowned: "If you don't have a wife, you don't love money? Why? I used to like playing cards. Sometimes I could sit at the card table for 48 hours. How can I serve at the table without money? "

This is true. When he was young, Nikola Tesla was addicted to gambling. He slept very little and slept for two hours a day. It is said that when he was doing experiments, he stayed up for more than 80 hours.

Playing cards for 48 hours is nothing. Internet-addicted teenagers die suddenly after playing for a week in an Internet cafe.

It’s just that Nikola Truss always loses.

Maybe the tech tree didn't light up this area.

"..." Zhao Chuanxin took a deep breath: "Besides playing cards, what else do you want money for?"

"It costs money to have food, clothing, housing and transportation. Moreover, I have many inventions that cannot be funded, so I need money to complete experiments."

Zhao Chuanxin breathed a sigh of relief: "What about reputation?"

"Who doesn't love reputation?"

"You greedy thing!" Zhao Chuanxin was angry.

Nikola Tesla successfully shattered his mysterious image in Zhao Chuanxin's mind.

The two were relatively speechless.

Zhao Chuanxin stretched out his hand: "Give me the Thor's hammer."

Nikola Tesla hesitated and was unwilling to hand it over.

Zhao Chuanxin: "Don't force me to grab it, I'll hit someone - it hurts."

Nikola Tesla actually wanted money, but he was not good at talking and had no words.

He thought of Zhao Chuanxin's fighting power and reluctantly took off Thor's hammer.

Seeing Zhao Chuanxin turning around to leave, he became anxious: "Wait..."

Zhao Chuanxin turned around: "What are you doing?"

He finally saw why Nikola Tesla was so disliked.

Arrogant, crazy, too straightforward, bad-tempered, and some of his ideas are unrealistic.

For example, how to recharge the atmosphere... Even Zhao Chuanxin was speechless. This may be slightly less difficult than installing an engine on the earth to eject it out of the solar system.

Nikola Tesla said: "We can work together."

He actually felt that he was very close to Zhao Chuanxin. Others thought he was a madman and his words were as mysterious as witchcraft and others. But he found that Zhao Chuanxian was also this kind of person.

Can ordinary people say that a mobile phone has a screen?

Zhao Chuanxin flicked the cigarette butt away: "It's possible to cooperate. I can let you own money, beautiful women, mansions, yachts, and I can give you unlimited investment in your inventions. Your achievements can be fully deployed in your name. However, all achievements and patents belong to you." Me. I will keep some of my results secret, and will not even register a patent. They may only be used on a small scale, or even only by me.

Can you accept this? "

Nikola Tesla grabbed his hair and said, "I want to think about it."

Zhao Chuanxin shrugged: "Then you think about it, I'm leaving."

"Wait a minute." Nikola Tesla stopped him again: "Do you really know how to invest without an upper limit?"
