"Jason, I'm glad you're interviewing me, I heard that you just received an invitation from the French Academy of Sciences, and they want you to be a member of the Academy of Sciences, right?" Engels asked the first question with a smile.

"It's just a candidate academician, and there are 11 other candidates, so it's hard to say whether they can be elected." Zhu Jishi replied modestly.

"Jason, you're sure you'll be elected an academician." Mrs. Duran, who came in with two cups of coffee, interjected, and after putting the coffee cup on a small round table in front of Engels and Zhu Jishi, she did not leave, but pulled a chair and sat behind Zhu Jishi.

"I think the same as Madame Durand, and you will be chosen, because the French will not miss an opportunity to show that they are smarter than the English." Engels said half-jokingly.

But that's a good point, if there was no trial on January 20, there would have been no conflict between Zhu Jishi and the Royal Society of Medicine. The French may not be so quick to invite Zhu Jishi, an Oriental, to elect as an academician of the Academy of Sciences, the problem is that in the past few hundred years, the grievances between Britain and France have been too deep, and they have long formed the habitual thinking that France must support whatever Britain opposes.

Now that the French want to use the "stupidity" of the British to highlight their cleverness, of course they will not let Zhu Jishi lose the election. What's more, Zhu Jishi's "achievements" in science have long been qualified to be honored as an academician of the Academy of Sciences.

And he himself is very willing to become an academician of the Academy of Sciences, to make an inappropriate analogy, at present, in Europe, the status of science is equivalent to Chinese Confucianism, and becoming an academician of the French Academy of Sciences is like becoming a great Confucianism recognized by the whole country in China, and the status is even higher. So as long as there is this aura protection, although Zhu Jishi is a yellow race, Europe in this era is not at the mercy of idle big men. If he had become a member of the French Academy of Sciences two months earlier, the Royal Society of Medicine would not have dared to revoke his license, let alone sue him for defamation.

In addition, most of the rulers of Europe in this era, whether they were kings, emperors, queens, archdukes, or tsars, liked to flaunt their zealous science and art, the former appearing to be more intelligent, and the latter showing refined taste. For example, the French Emperor Napoleon himself was elected a member of the French Academy of Sciences, and Prince Albert, the uncrowned King of the British Empire, was even more than happy to show his erudition (he also appointed himself Chancellor of Cambridge University in 1847). Therefore, with the status of an academician of the Academy of Sciences, Zhu Jishi has more opportunities to contact the top figures in Europe, which is also a good umbrella.

"Jason, let's get down to business and tell us what you think of the state of health in hospitals and workers' quarters in the UK?" Engels took a sip of coffee and asked with a smile.

"It's true that the health of hospitals in the UK is a bit bad, but that's all due to the ignorance of germs in the medical community, and I believe it will improve in the future."

Zhu Jishi pondered his words. The goal of becoming famous has been achieved, and it seems that he has also earned an academician of the French Academy of Sciences, and the next goal is to make a fortune, at least to earn back the 7 million pounds lost by the Manchu Dynasty in the Opium War, so he doesn't want to offend the British Empire authorities anymore.

Hearing Zhu Jishi's answer, a look of disappointment flashed on Engels' face.

"Jason, can you tell us about yourself?" Engels seemed to know that Zhu Jishi and his current self were not all the way, so he quickly changed the topic.

"Myself?"

"yes, where are you from? Where to get your medical education? And where are your loved ones? Engels smiled and said: "Jason, you are now a very famous celebrity, so everyone wants to know more about your past." ”

Hearing this, although Zhu Jishi still had a smile on his face, this expression slowly sank. Celebrities have no privacy! I just want to be famous and make a fortune, how can I forget this stubble? Who of those celebrities in later generations didn't dig up all the ridiculous things about the old eight shares for tabloid reporters? If these reporters found out that they were people with no past, I don't know how they would feel?

"yes, Jason, where are you from? I don't think I've ever heard you mention it. The next to her, Madame Duran, also asked with wide eyes, like a curious baby. She still has the past of Isabel that she knows, and she has already told Zhu Jishi about it, but Zhu Jishi has never said anything about her past, and it is really a bit mysterious.

Zhu Jishi put down the small coffee cup in his hand and smiled slightly, "Friedrich, I think you should be able to see some of my past from my appearance, right?" ”

"Looks? You're a Tatar, right? Engels said with a smile. Zhu Jishi was mistaken for a Tatar by him, Blomstein, Isabelle, and Qiu Fatzi from the beginning, and he did not deny it.

"No, I'm not a Tatar, I'm Chinese! My Chinese name is Zhu Jishi. ”

Now that the news of the end of the Opium War has spread throughout Europe, and Zhu Jishi now has a great reputation, he is not afraid of being accused of being accused of the Manchu underground party, so he can admit that he is an upright Chinese?

"Qingguo? Are you from Qingguo? Oh, my God! You came to Europe from the Qing Kingdom? How did you get here? Engels stared at Zhu Jishi as if he was looking at an alien. Mrs. Duran even stretched out her jade hand and touched the back of Zhu Jishi's head, "Huh! How did you not have braids and cut them off? ”

"Nope! I've never had braids! Thinking of that pig's tail, Zhu Jishi's face suddenly became a little gloomy, and he said in an aggravated tone: "I am Chinese, not Qingguo!" ”

Engels and Madame Duran both stared at Zhu Jishi blankly, not understanding what he meant.

Zhu Jishi was silent for a moment and explained: "The real China has actually perished a long time ago!" China's territory was ...... by the Manchus more than a hundred years ago That is, the Tatar regime that now rules China has been occupied, and these foreign invaders have turned the Chinese who have not fled China into slaves. And my ancestors were lucky that they left China in time, so I was not a slave of the Manchu dynasty! ”

When he said this, Zhu Jishi was very helpless in his heart. In later life, he did not have much interest in politics, and just wanted to be a good doctor. So he traveled to Europe in 1840, and he had no intention of going into trouble with the Qing Dynasty and the Daoguang Emperor - at least not until now. Using his knowledge of medicine and chemistry to make a fortune in this time and space is his current life ideal. As for what meaningful business you want to do after you get rich, we can only talk about it then.

However, not opposing the Qing Dynasty for the time being does not mean that Zhu Jishi loves the Qing Dynasty and is willing to leave a braid to the Manchu Dynasty as a slave! But he is also a new generation born in New China and grew up under the red flag, and of course he loves the motherland and the people. I also know that loving the country is loving the government, and according to this standard, by 1840, we should love the Manchu Qing and love Daoguang, or we should be unpatriotic traitors and traitors.

Therefore, Zhu Jishi, who was in the midst of the contradiction, simply chose to evade and directly denied that the Qing Dynasty represented China, but said that China was a country occupied and enslaved by the Manchu Dynasty.

"So, Jason, I want to know, what do you think of the trade war that just ended?"

Engels's question was really sharp, and Zhu Jishi showed a helpless expression on his face, he considered his words and said: "I don't understand that the Qing State, which has more than a million troops, will be defeated by more than 10,000 British troops?" This is really ridiculous! ”

Zhu Jishi understood this problem before crossing over, the Manchu court was corrupt, the army was corrupt and smoked, and the people of the Qing Dynasty were in dire straits, and so on, and a large number of reasons showed that the Manchu Qing Dynasty would inevitably fail. But after spending a few months in England in the 1840s, he found that there was corruption here in England, there were still people who bought and sold officials, their army smoked a lot, and the British people were also in dire straits!
