Make France Great Again

"For now, the artificial synthesis of quinine is still in the exploratory stage!" Louis Pasteur sighed softly and replied to Jérôme Bonaparte in a low tone.

It can be seen from his expression that Professor Pasteur is very dissatisfied with the current research progress.

Jerome Bonaparte, who knew that the road to malaria research was long and tortuous, did not blame Louis Pasteur at all. On the contrary, he admired Professor Pasteur.

To know the confirmation of the malaria transmission vector in history, we have to wait until more than 40 years later.

It is quite remarkable that Professor Louis Pasteur was able to identify the vector of malaria in Africa in the shortest possible time under the existing conditions. (Although this was under the premise that Jérôme Bonaparte provided ideas for Louis Pasteur.)

"Professor, there is no need to rush scientific research!" Jérôme Bonaparte gently patted Louis Pasteur's shoulder and said solemnly: "It is difficult to obtain any research without going through thousands of experiments. result!

Believe me, inspiration will suddenly appear in your mind after you have accumulated thousands of experiments! "

"Your Majesty, you gave me really high treatment and equipped me with so many assistants, but I failed you!" Louis Pasteur whispered to Jérôme Bonaparte.

"Professor Pasteur!" Jérôme Bonaparte responded to Louis Pasteur with a serious face: "You have failed no one! Everything you have now is the honor you deserve!"

I always believe that the strength of a country depends not only on those of us in high positions, but also on you.

Only a country that respects science and is willing to invest in science can truly have a better tomorrow! "

Under Jerome Bonaparte's chicken soup for the soul, Louis Pasteur, who had become depressed due to the inability to conquer malaria, immediately cheered up again.

Immediately afterwards, Louis Pasteur told Jerome Bonaparte.

Although they have not yet thoroughly researched artificial quinine, they have summarized the transmission routes of malaria and methods of preventing malaria.

I believe that with this method, the mortality rate will be reduced.

"On behalf of the French government, I thank you for your efforts!" Jerome Bonaparte said excitedly, holding Louis Pasteur's hand.

If Louis Pasteur's method proves effective, then Jérôme Bonaparte's colonization plan for Africa can be put on the agenda.

At this time, Louis Pasteur had no idea how much pain his research would bring to those living in Africa. He only thought that Jerome Bonaparte really wanted to bring suffering to those who were not yet civilized. Africans brought civilization.

"I'm just doing what I can!" Louis Pasteur said shyly.

"Say! What do you want!" Jérôme Bonaparte magnanimously said to Louis Pasteur and us! .

"Your Majesty, this is not just my contribution, but the contribution of everyone in this institute!" Louis Pasteur still retained the simple values ​​of sharing blessings and replied to Jérôme Bonaparte.

"Okay! I understand!" Jérôme Bonaparte nodded and said to Louis Pasteur: "I can assure you that you will receive another considerable bonus!"

Hearing Jérôme Bonaparte's words, everyone present smiled.

Jérôme Bonaparte has never been stingy when it comes to rewarding scientific researchers.

It is precisely because of this that they are willing to work harder for Jerome Bonaparte.

Any company that only likes to talk about ideals but is unwilling to discuss benefits will face collapse sooner or later.

The most annoying words of Jérôme Bonaparte in his previous life were "The narrower the mind, the narrower the treatment, the higher the level of dedication."

This kind of behavior that turns treatment and dedication into a binary opposition is either stupid or bad.

Later, Jerome Bonaparte talked with Louis Pasteur for a while and asked him if there was anything else he needed help with.

Louis Pasteur shook his head and said that there was no need to trouble Jerome Bonaparte at the moment.

Just when Jérôme Bonaparte was about to bid farewell to Louis Pasteur and head to the next inspection location, an institute employee wearing a mask hurriedly ran from the underground institute to the living room.

"Professor!" the researcher gasped and shouted to Louis Pasteur, and then bowed to Jerome Bonaparte.

Jérôme Bonaparte stopped and hurriedly asked the researcher: "What happened to the underground research institute? Was the sample leaked?"

The researcher shook his head and replied to Jérôme Bonaparte: "Your Majesty, when we were conducting experiments on artificial quinine just now, we accidentally produced something interesting!"

"What?" Jérôme Bonaparte asked curiously.

"Your Majesty, if you don't mind, why don't you go to the underground laboratory?" the researcher said to Jérôme Bonaparte.

"What are you showing off to?" Louis Pasteur frowned slightly and reprimanded the researchers, "Do you know that His Majesty's time is precious!"

After hearing Louis Pasteur's reprimand, the researcher lowered his head and said nothing.

"Professor, don't go on the line like this!" Jérôme Bonaparte quickly came to his rescue.

"But..." Professor Louis Pasteur responded.

"Give me..." Jerome Bonaparte glanced at Vernia and Valewski beside him. He stretched out his hand and said to the researcher, "Give me three masks!"

"Yes!" The researcher took out three cotton masks from his pocket and handed them to Jérôme Bonaparte.

Jérôme Bonaparte handed two masks to Vernia and Valewski respectively, and then put on another mask.

"Let's go, Professor Pasteur!" Jérôme Bonaparte said to Louis Pasteur: "Let's see what they are doing!"

Louis Pasteur had no choice but to put on a mask and follow Jérôme Bonaparte to the underground research institute.

Led by the staff of the institute, Jérôme Bonaparte and others came to a room in the institute.

The room was crowded with researchers in white coats.

Seeing that there was no way forward, the researcher shouted at the top of his lungs: "Make way! Make way! Your Majesty and Professor Pasteur are here!"

The researcher standing in the front row subconsciously looked back after hearing this.

Sure enough, Jérôme Bonaparte and Louis Pasteur were right behind them.

"Everyone, please give way!" Jérôme Bonaparte took a step forward and said to them in a gentle voice.

"You are gathered here, don't you have your own work to do?" Louis Pasteur reprimanded them with a hint of anger.

The vast majority of the institute's staff immediately turned around and left after hearing Louis Pasteur's reprimand.

Soon there were only a few people left in the whole room, and Jérôme Bonaparte and others also looked at the contents of the test tube on the test table.

"This is not..." Jérôme Bonaparte stared at the contents of the test tube with wide eyes, then quickly came to the test stand, pointed at the test tube and asked: "Who made this?"

Several researchers pointed at one of them at the same time, and the researcher said timidly: "Your Majesty, I made this! However, I made it unintentionally!"

"Do you still remember how this thing is made?" Jérôme Bonaparte asked with a slightly urgent tone.

"Remember!" The researcher nodded, and then described to Jérôme Bonaparte what he had just added when making it, "...I remember that I just added potassium dichromate to the solution containing quinine in order to extract quinine. aniline sulfate, and then a pitch-colored residue appeared in the flask, and I knew the experiment must have failed! So, in order to clean out that residue, I wanted to use alcohol.

Who knew that as soon as the alcohol was added, they would turn this purple color! "

"That's right! That's it!" Jerome Bonaparte said excitedly.

Unexpectedly, when I asked them to research and produce artificial quinine, they accidentally restored aniline purple.

This is mankind’s first artificial synthetic dye!

"Your Majesty, what exactly does this thing do?" Louis Pasteur looked at the aniline violet reagent in confusion.

"Quick! Take out all the white fabrics in the research room!" Jérôme Bonaparte immediately urged Louis Pasteur. He wanted to verify whether this was the real aniline purple.

Louis Pasteur hurriedly started to make plans, but the researcher who developed aniline violet was a little panicked. He did not expect that it would cause such a big fuss.

"What's your name?" Jérôme Bonaparte asked the naive-looking researcher in front of him with a kind smile on his face.

"William Henry Parkin!" the researcher responded timidly in half-baked French.

"He is a British man, recommended by the president of the Royal Academy of Chemistry!" Louis Pasteur explained quickly.

"I particularly admire Academician Liebig, so..." William Henry Parkin stammered to Jerome Bonaparte.

(After the deeply persecuted Julius von Liebig was expelled from the Kingdom of Prussia in 1852, he was immediately cordially invited by Jérôme Bonaparte to arrive in France to serve as the Dean of Academic Affairs of the Chemistry Department of the Ecole Polytechnique.)

"Are you interested in studying for a bachelor's degree from Ecole Polytechnique?" Jérôme Bonaparte asked with a smile. Find Shuyuan www.zhaoshuyuan. com

"Is it really possible?" William Henry Parkin asked excitedly.

"Of course!" Jerome Bonaparte nodded, "We welcome every scholar to come to France!"

After a while, the institute staff brought all the white fabrics over.

Jérôme Bonaparte dropped aniline violet reagent on cotton, wool and silk in sequence, and then let them dry for a while.

After the infection was completely infected, the institute staff were ordered to find several basins of water.

Jérôme Bonaparte put them into different basins respectively. Sure enough, except for the cotton, the wool and silk showed no signs of fading.

"Mr. Parkin, you're going to get rich!"
