《1855 American Tycoon》Chapter 62 : On board
Advertisement
Roy had heard that the famous chemist Mr. Scrooge McDonald was on this boat, and he also learned from the newspaper that this great man who made epoch-making contributions is still underage, but now he sees When it comes to himself, Roy, who loves chemistry, is still very excited.
As for Scrooge, he spent at least ten days floating on the sea. In addition to studying his various plans over and over again every day, preparing speeches at the Royal Academy of Sciences and the Royal Academy of France, and eating and sleeping, There is nothing to do. There is no radio communication technology in this era, so when a person is on a boat the sea, he is cut off from the whole world at once. For the first time since time travel, Scrooge was free. At this time, a young man who loves to learn, with a beautiful little loli, ran over to ask him about chemistry when he was bored sitting beside the boat fishing, which was a very interesting thing. The only trouble is that Scrooge's explanation will go beyond this era if he is not careful. Words that would not appear were spoken. So much so that he had to explain it as he was distracted by fishing and didn't know what he was talking about.
"Mr. Macdonald, you don't have to blame yourself. I should be the embarrassed one. I shouldn't bother you at this time." Roy said politely.
"Ah, I don't do anything serious. I can't do anything on this boat. I don't like playing cards. I don't even like fishing very much. It's just to pass the time. I think it's good that someone can chat with me now." Scrooge replied.
"Brother Scrooge doesn't like fishing? Dorothea thinks fishing is fun." Little Loli moved a small chair and sat on the side watching fishing, because the last time Scrooge mentioned that the sun was very strong at sea, It's easy to tan a white person like a black person. So now Dorothea not only held an umbrella beside her when she watched the fishing, but she wrapped herself up like an Arabian, with only her beautiful blue eyes showing.
These days, Little Lolita's father has also met Scrooge a few times, and he also admires Scrooge's achievements, so he agrees with his son and the frequent visits to Scrooge. And little Lori, who was bored on the boat, would often follow her brother to play with Scrooge.
Dorothea didn't understand what Scrooge and Roy were talking about, but brother Scrooge was so amazing that he could make brother Roy admire him so much. Brother Roy is quite remarkable, which of the boys nearby can compare to him? Can he get entry to Cambridge like him? Although little Lori doesn't know precisely what Cambridge is, and why it is exceptional to be able to enter Cambridge, this does not prevent her from seeing the excellence of her brother in the eyes of others, especially those older sisters. It doesn't stop her from being proud of her brother. "My brother is the best." This sentence became Dorothea's favorite phrase for a while.

Now, however, the belief that "brother is the best" has been shaken. Because, on this boat, a monster appeared. Well, yes, monsters, that's what Dad said. My brother would also sigh from time to time, how can a person be so smart?
"Could it be that brother Scrooge is more powerful than my brother?" Little Loli once asked her father and brother like this. As a result, both father and elder brother laughed wryly, and finally, the elder brother said: "Is it stupid to compare with your brother Scrooge? It will make everyone a fool." From this point of view, brother Scrooge is better than his brother. Little Loli felt a little frustrated, but the "your brother Scrooge" that her brother said somehow made Little Loli a little secretly happy.
"Mr. Macdonald, can you explain this problem to me?" Roy took out a small notebook, which contained a math problem that he had exhausted his brain and failed to solve.
"Oh, Roy, don't be so polite, you can just call me Scrooge, do you want me to call you Mr. Ord? Oh, show me that question." Scrooge, I stretched out my hand to tie the small notebook and looked at the question seriously.
This is a Fourier transform problem, and it is not an easy one, even for a college-educated person. And for a person who has not yet received higher education, it is already very powerful to try to do such a topic, even if he can't answer it.
Shi Gaozhi looked at the question seriously. Although he hasn't touched these things too much since time travel, such a question is not particularly difficult for him. So he straightened out his thoughts and began to explain this question to Roy...
"Dingling, Dingling." The fish bell hanging on the top of the fishing rod suddenly rang. Little Loli stood up immediately: "Brother! Brother Scrooge! Some fish are hooked! Some fish are hooked!"
It's just that the two elder brothers haven't reacted yet, they are still talking about the topic with their heads down. "Title topic, what topic can be more fun than fishing?" Little Loli simply stood up from the chair and reached out to grab the fishing rod.
"Hey, kids can't play with this, it's very dangerous." Just as little Lolita was about to take the fishing rod in her hand, a hand stretched out and grabbed the fishing rod first.
Dorothea saw that it was Scrooge who got the fishing rod before her, so she said, "Quickly, pull it up quickly, don't let it go away!" After saying this, she suddenly remembered something He pursed his mouth and said very unhappily: "What danger, children, don't play, Dorothea is no longer a child! If Dorothea is a child, Brother Scrooge, you are also a child, and you can't play with it." !"

At this time, the fish pulled violently, and the fishing rod immediately completed a bow. After all, Scrooge was still young and lacked strength, so he could no longer control the fishing rod.
"Roy, come help!" Scrooge yelled.
"Well, okay." Roy had also dropped his notebook and pencil and ran over, and the two of them grabbed the fishing rod together.
"Don't let it straighten the fishing rod, or it will break the fishing line in the blink of an eye," Scrooge said to Roy who was holding the fishing rod with him.
"I know that the elasticity of the fishing rod can relieve the explosive force of the fish only if the pulling force of the fishing rod and the fish are in a 90-degree direction. I understand this physical principle." Roy shouted while struggling to control the fishing rod road.
"The muscles of fish are very explosive, but their endurance is not very good... Hold on, we must be the winner..." Before Scrooge finished speaking, the fish pulled violently, and the fishing rod followed With a shake, Scrooge almost sat down on the deck. Fortunately, Roy was older and stronger. With his help, they successfully kissed the fishing rod.
"My naturalist teacher said that the stamina of fish is very poor, and it won't last long." Roy gritted his teeth, and the veins on his arms bulged.
"Sea fish are different! Maybe it's a fish with red muscles. They...they will have better stamina than those with white muscles." This is such a fish!"
"Why?"
"Because it's more fun to fight with such a fish!"
To say that Scrooge's wish was fulfilled, the fish tossed with them patiently for almost two hours, and then gradually gave up struggling exhaustedly. Little Lolita kept cheering them on, and even the old Mr. Ord was alarmed, and came to the deck with great interest, watching his son and Scrooge fight the fish together.
"Watching them wrestle with that fish reminds me of my youth," old Mr. Ord said to his wife.
"My dear, you are very young now," replied the wife.
At this time, the fish had exhausted its strength and floated to the surface. Scrooge and Roy pulled it to the side of the boat, and a sailor caught it with a large fishing net and threw it on the deck.
"A very nice salmon, at least forty pounds!" said the sailor.
The salmon was thrown on the deck, writhing feebly—it was exhausted. The two people who were as exhausted as they were also slumped on the chairs and panted. Only the little Lolita ran over curiously to observe the big fish.
"This fish is hideous! It's far less beautiful than the snapper you caught yesterday, brother Scrooge." Little Loli came to such a conclusion after studying the fish seriously.
"Hehe, Dorothea, this fish is much more beautiful than the snapper yesterday." Roy said to his sister, who had already caught his breath, "If you don't believe me, ask your brother Scrooge?"
Hearing "your brother Scrooge", little Loli blushed a little, so she lowered her head and looked at the fish seriously. The fish was silver-gray, with some brown spots on its body and small eyes. , the mouth is full of sharp teeth, and it looks fierce at first glance-how can there be any beauty in this? So, she raised her head and looked at Scrooge puzzled by her beautiful blue lake-like eyes.
"Yes, it is beautiful, because anything full of power is beautiful." Scrooge also replied affirmatively.
"That's right, Byron thinks so too," Roy added.
Little Lolita looked at the fierce and ugly big fish on the deck again, and then at Roy and Scrooge, but she still couldn't find out how beautiful this fish was. But she wasn't going to stick to her opinion, and since both her brother and Scrooge thought it was beautiful, it must be really beautiful. Little Lolita thought so.
