Chapter 1040 The mysterious project of the mathematics department

"I guess the British envoys will return in the beginning of spring. At that time, your princess, you should return to Britain with them." Salina sat down and said.

"I have been here for less than a year, and I am not very fluent in Chinese. I don't want to return to Britain so quickly. If the two countries open ports to trade in the future, I can return to Britain at any time, so why bother to hurry?" Princess Sophia was just familiar with life in the East and did not want to return to Britain together when the second group of envoys arrived.

"What if His Majesty the King does not intend to agree to the proposal of trade between the two countries?" Salina asked again.

"I know that even if my brother does not agree to trade, Mr. Li will lead the fleet to Europe this year. It is inevitable that the east and west will start trading." Princess Sophia said while tasting the delicious food made by Da Yuer and the others.

"Salina, what should you do if Li Jinde is preparing to lead the fleet to Europe at the beginning of this spring?" asked Xiao Xiuer, who is most familiar with Salina.

"I originally planned to go to Europe with him, but now it seems that I can only stay in the capital and wait until the child is born before seeing if I have a chance to return to my parents' home... It may be a few years later." Salina couldn't help but feel a little sad when she saw her parents. The distance between the East and the West was too far away in this era.

"Don't worry, this time I go to Britain, I will find time to visit my father-in-law. I heard that there is a magical place in the city called a photo studio that can draw people down, lifelike and more realistic than the most intelligent painter. I want to take you to take a painting called a photo before going to Europe, and I will bring it to your father myself." Li Jinde said.

Li Jinde felt a little guilty about snatching Sir Greenville's daughter. He wanted to lead the Western company's fleet to London City and talk to Sir Greenville.

"Photo studio? Where is that?" Princess Sophia said in surprise.

"There is a machine called a camera that can record people's impressions and can be imaged without the artist. Although it is a black and white painting, it is very real." Da Yuer said.

What they are discussing is the black and white camera technology that Chu Yun has enabled.

In addition to the Jiuzhou Army's dedicated photographers to record important moments in history, photographers also opened the first civilian photo studio in history in Beijing. However, the first civilian photo studio was expensive, and a black and white photo costs a lot. Only wealthy or wealthy families can afford to take black and white photos.

Many people also think that taking photos will cause the soul to be taken away, so they keep a distance from the photo studio. In addition, there is no demand for mass production of cameras at this time, and the photo studio is not very well-known in Beijing.

"Your relationship is really enviable. When will I find my prince charming?" said Princess Sophia.

"His Majesty the King has chosen many princes and dukes for the princess?" Salina knew that Charles I had looked for many princes and princes on the European continent for her sister, and even the Duke of Prussia was considering it.

"I don't like being regarded as a victim of marriage. I also want to find my own destiny. Most marriages in marriages are unhappy. The princess and the prince will not live a happy life from now on. They bear the mission of the family. Even if it is a broken marriage, they must maintain their status in front of the world. It is really sad." Princess Sophia made a generous speech.

"So is the same for our noble women." Salina felt a little.

"Ahem, why did I hear such a heavy topic as soon as I came."

A voice sounded outside the gate. Before Da Yu'er, Xiao Xiu'er and others could see who the person was, they stood up and identified each other's identity.

"Mr. Chu, why are you here?" Princess Sophia said in surprise.

The person who came was Chu Yun, and Aila holding Ling'er.

"Ling'er clamored to see you, so we came over. Your place is lively, and in comparison, our place is much more depressed." Chu Yun said.

Ling'er waved to Da Yu'er and the others in a whisper.

"Mr. Master!" Li Jinde did not expect to see Chu Yun here, and he was in awe.

"You happen to be here too. I wonder how you are preparing to lead the fleet to Europe for business?" Chu Yun asked when he saw Li Jinde accompanying Salina at Da Yuer's house.

"According to the plan, regardless of whether the two countries have reached a complete trade treaty, I will lead a fleet to London City in early March to trade. Several shipyards in Dalian have completed the production of some ocean-going sailboats, and we have given up the design of flat-bottomed ships. There are also various commodities and machines in preparation, and the procurement should be completed as scheduled. We plan to open a wool textile factory, iron smelting factory, and ceramic factory in London City." Li Jinde said.

"Brother Chu, I don't forget to talk about official duties during the New Year's Eve dinner." Chen Yuanyuan said from the side.

"Yuanyuan, you have become more and more naughty recently!" Liu Rushi felt a headache for this sister he recognized.

"It doesn't matter. Young people must have a rebellious spirit. They are the new force to break the tradition and constantly innovate." Chu Yun was not angry.

"I plan to let Yuanyuan go to the school recently. It seems that twelve new middle school schools are going to be established in Beijing. I wonder if Yuanyuan can pass the assessment." Liu Rushi said.

Chu Yun looked at Chen Yuanyuan, as if she was about twelve years old, and the middle school school system was six years, but it was still of the right age.

"The Department of Mathematics at the Jingshi University will probably carry out a very interesting project in two or three years, and the treatment of those participating in the project will be amazing..." Chu Yun was not very concerned about Chen Yuanyuan who had not yet grown up, but reminded Liu Rushi.

In his eyes, people who study basic science can also have a considerable income.

"A very interesting project?" Liu Rushi heard Chu Yun mention the project in the Department of Mathematics, and for the first time he had a goal to strive for the direction of his further study.

"A project to create something that has not yet existed in this world." Chu Yun only mentioned his ambitious plan a little.

"It seems that you have to work hard, sister. The military leader will only select the smartest group of people in the mathematics department to participate in this project. If you cannot become a top student in the mathematics department, you will not have the chance to enter. Even the subsidy for junior researchers exceeds one hundred taels of silver every year." Ella said.
