    "A good beginning is half the battle."

    Sun Yuanqi has always recognized this sentence.

    "Journal of Jingshi University" needs to be run well. In the first issue, there must be heavyweight papers or papers published by heavyweight figures in order to attract more people's attention.  There is no doubt that I will write one myself.  But just singing a one-man show would be too boring.  At this time, Sun Yuanqi thought of Einstein.

    After returning to China, Sun Yuanqi had already met this great man once. Perhaps it was his first time here, and there was a trace of rigor or caution in his poor English.  In addition to expressing his gratitude repeatedly, he implicitly expressed that he was not good at teaching and might not be able to hold a teaching position.  Sun Yuanqi naturally knew.  This big shot traveled across the ocean and traveled thousands of miles to the Far East just for the generous salary.  What he needs now is to sit down and think quietly about those mysterious physics problems.

    Sun Yuanqi satisfied him to the greatest extent: first, let him serve as a deputy in the IPRT (Institute of Physical Research and Teaching) where he was the director, with the title of associate professor.  Secondly, you don¡¯t have to go to class on weekdays. You only need to participate in the seminars held by all members of the institute twice a week. It is up to you whether you want to speak or not.  The rest of the time is free for you to spend time in the office or go home and take a nap.

    ?Obviously, Einstein was very satisfied with this arrangement.

    Taking advantage of the weekend afternoon, Sun Yuanqi and Vera visited Einstein¡¯s apartment in Mid-Levels with gifts.

    Before I entered the door, I heard the melodious sound of a violin coming from the room.  Sun Yuanqi knew nothing about music, especially Western classical music.  Although I don¡¯t understand it, I can feel that the music style is very lively and the violin plays at an exciting and fast pace.  But Vera was an expert, and she immediately recognized that this was "Brandenburg Concerto No. 4" by Bach, the "Father of Western Music".

    When Lao Zhao was about to call the door, the two people hurriedly stopped him.  Just stand outside and listen until the song ends.

    It was Einstein who came to open the door. His wife Mileva had some difficulty with her legs and feet.  After a while of greetings, the host and guest came to the living room.  When you enter the room, you can see the violin placed on the Eight Immortals table. It is obviously the violin that was used to play the music just now.

    "Mr. Einstein, it turns out you are an excellent violinist!" Sun Yuanqi praised.  In the history of science, Einstein's violin playing skills are as famous as his sexy news.

    "Thank you for the compliment. You know, one of my dreams when I was a boy was to become a performer like Paganini!" The young Einstein was not like the portraits hanging in schools in later generations, with long messy hair and full face.  Wrinkled face, holding a pipe.  On the contrary, he was very clean, wearing a German-style plaid suit, a white shirt, and a tie. Although his hair was fluffy, it was still neat.  Just a hint of beard on his mouth, which looks a little strange to him who is only twenty-three years old.

    While speaking, Mileva crookedly brought out tea and snacks.  Vera and Lao Zhao saw this and quickly went up to take over.  It is said that the school janitor is responsible for the daily laundry, cleaning and even meals in this mid-level residence.  It¡¯s just the daily life of each family, but they can¡¯t take care of it.  Especially these foreign teachers, who do not speak the same language as the school staff and have different living habits, have to do many things by themselves.  Sun Yuanqi also apologized: "I took the liberty to visit and caused trouble to you!"

    "No, no, no!" Einstein shook his head repeatedly, "We are very happy that you can come. If you don't come, Mileva and I will plan to visit you in the next few days!"

    "Oh? Are you having problems in life or work?" Sun Yuanqi asked hurriedly.

    "No, no, no, work and life are very good. For us, this place is simply Thoreau's Walden Pond, it couldn't be better!" Einstein replied, "It's an academic question. Excuse me, I'll go  Bring some information from the study room."

    After saying that, Einstein got up and went upstairs.

    At this time, Mileva explained: "Einstein has been very concerned about the problem of relative motion a long time ago. When he was in middle school cram school, he once thought that if a person chases light, he can see  What? According to his speculation, he should be able to see a wave field that does not change with time. What should a wave field that does not change with time look like? He then realized that light is moving for everyone and cannot be still. Haha,  At that time, your paper had not been published yet. We did not know that light has wave-particle duality. We only thought that light was an electromagnetic wave.

    "In college, Einstein and I were classmates, and I was very curious when he heard him talk about it. Over the years, we have been thinking about this topic of relative motion, until we saw your article in "Science"  The article "On the Electrodynamics of Moving Bodies and the Relationship between Mass and Energy"Before leaving, Sun Yuanqi made two requests to Einstein:

    First, of course, I would invite him to write a paper, either in German or in English.  Although "Journal of Jingshi University" is in Chinese, it doesn't matter if there are English papers. At worst, Sun Yuanqi would do it himself and add a Chinese abstract at the front.

    Second, we sincerely invite Mileva to work at the Institute of Physics Research (iprt).  This matter not only required Mileva's consent, but also her husband Einstein's consent. After all, this was a private matter for the young couple.

    Einstein agreed.

    The answer made Sun Yuanqi very happy: If this continues, Mileva's tragedy can be avoided, right?

    After leaving the door, Vera looked like she was hesitant to speak.  Sun Yuanqi thought about it and realized that Vera had heard him invite Mileva to come out to work, and Xiao Nizi was also moved.  Then he asked: "Vera, do you want to come out to work?"

    The arm held by Vera tightened suddenly. After taking a few steps, she tentatively said, "Yanke, doesn't China not allow women, especially married women, to come out to meet people?"

    "Haha." Sun Yuanqi smiled heartily, "That's someone else's house. Your husband is very open-minded. As long as you want to work, he will definitely allow it."

    "Well, thank you." Vera responded in a low voice.

    Sun Yuanqi pondered for a moment: "By the way, Vera, I remember you studied chemistry in college, right? Are you interested in doing me a favor?"

    "What are you doing?" Vera raised her head, her eyes shining.

    "Study fertilizer! Study the production process of chemical fertilizer!" Sun Yuanqi said a dream that he had always wanted to do but had not done. "China's land is vast, but after thousands of years of farming and soil erosion, the land is very barren.  Crop yields are low and farmers' lives are very difficult. So we must research cheap chemical fertilizers to improve the soil and thus improve people's lives."

    Vera was a little discouraged: "But I, I'm not very familiar with this"

    "Don't be afraid! No one is born with it. You can look at the corresponding information first, and then do research. If it doesn't work in five years, it will take ten years. If it doesn't work in ten years, it will take twenty years. If you don't succeed in your research,  Just leave the task to your son! If your son is not good enough, pass the task to your grandson!" Sun Yuanqi encouraged Vera, "Sooner or later, he will succeed!"

    Vera slapped him coquettishly.

    Sun Yuanqi continued: "Plants require various nutrients for normal development and growth. Among them, the issue of trace elements can be ignored for the time being. The most important ones are nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium. They are the amount required by plants and the amount taken away during harvesting.  There are more nutrients, but not a lot of them are returned to the soil in the form of residues and roots. So these nutrients often need to be replenished by applying fertilizers.¡±

    It was mentioned in middle school biology textbooks that the elements nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium, roughly speaking, correspond to the three parts of the plant: leaves, roots, and stems.

    "For example, nitrogen fertilizers are usually two types: ammonium bicarbonate and urea. Although we know these two types, we still need to know how to produce them on a large scale. If we can't produce them yet, we need to make them cheap enough to be accepted by ordinary farmers. This requires  Consider the production process." Sun Yuanqi explained in detail, "Of course, the Chinese have always been cautious. Farmyard fertilizers have been used for thousands of years. They are reluctant to accept chemical fertilizers and dare not accept them casually. This still needs publicity and promotion. But China  The territory is really vast, and the soil in each place is different: this place is deficient in phosphorus but not nitrogen, and that place is deficient in potassium but not phosphorus This requires relevant analysis and investigation. The development and production of chemical fertilizers is a big project.  It is a cause that benefits all people. It cannot be done by one person! Therefore, in your teaching and research process, you must involve students, mobilize everyone¡¯s wisdom and ability, and work together to achieve a great cause!¡±

    "Yeah!" Vera nodded heavily.

    "Old Zhao!" Sun Yuanqi turned around and shouted.

    Lao Zhao, who was following not far behind, immediately ran a few steps after hearing the sound: "Master, what are your orders?"

    Sun Yuanqi refused to be polite to him and said as he walked: "Whenever you have free time, find some people and open a few plots of land on the hillsides and riverbanks where they are not in the way. Each plot is half an acre in size and can grow crops."

    "Hit!" Lao Zhao said nothing.

    "One more thing!" Sun Yuanqi remembered one more thing, that is, OC Office has roughly planned the road and can start building the road soon.  Then he explained: "Isn't it a slack time for farming now? You go outside the school and recruit more people, preferably a hundred or eighty people, and pave the road to the back mountain! Food and drink will be provided, and wages will be paid as you see fit. Don't treat them badly."  I will tell you the specific start date when the time comes.¡±

    "Hmm." Lao Zhao thought for a moment, then punched his fist, "Master, I have an idea. Listen to it. Do you like it?"

    Sun Yuanqi rarely saw Lao Zhao coming up with ideas: "Oh? Tell me."

    Old Zhao cleared his throat: "I heard someone say that this summer, there was drought first in Zhili and Shanxi, and the crops were lost. During the wheat autumn season, the Yellow River burst its banks in Lijin County and Shouzhang County, Shandong Province, and many people floated away. There were several people around.  All counties were hit by disasters. I thought, it¡¯s almost winter, and there must be a lot of people fleeing famine in the city. When the weather gets cold, I don¡¯t know how many people will freeze to death. If we want to recruit workers, we might as well buy some people.  Firstly, the price is cheap; secondly, it can endure hardship and work well; thirdly, it can also help the young master accumulate some virtue."

    Sun Yuanqi naturally obeyed Lao Zhao's reasons, which were both public and private: "Okay! I'll do as you say in this matter." (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com)When Zhao came up with an idea: "Oh? Let's talk about it."
