Into Unscientific Chapter 270

"What did you say?"

  Entrance to Hyde Park.

   Seeing Avelyn who left the room only two minutes later than the two of them, Xu Yun's pupils suddenly widened:

   "Student Avelyn, you also quit the Apostle Club?"

   is across from him.

  Aveline nodded calmly, her expression looked as casual as if she had given up a certain piece of clothing while shopping:

   "That's right, it doesn't make much sense to stay in the club anyway, and some people like to talk about my gender behind my back, so I just quit the club together."

   "Besides, when I left, I hit Clement's head."

   Between speaking.

  Aveline also made a gesture of smashing people, with a vaguely excited expression on her expression.

Do not know why.

   When seeing Aveline's action.

  Xu Yun subconsciously thought of the pile of cow dung that the girl threw on her face when she first met Lilani.

  The original Avelyn was too quiet, and it wasn't until this time that she could see some shadows of that brat jumping out.

   Could it be that the blood has awakened?

  No, no, now is not the time to think about this.

   Then Xu Yun shook his head, forcing himself to recover.

  He glanced at Laotang first, then at Avelyn, and slapped his forehead with a slap:

   "Troublesome"

   Originally, he was still troubled by Lao Tang's actions, but he didn't expect that before he left the park gate, the girl Avelyn also followed up with a wave of operations from above.

  This is tmd the Cambridge Apostolic Society.

  Although Lao Tang in the original history was not very happy in the agency, he has already completed his third year of graduate school this year, and he is only about a year and a half away from graduation.

  So in the end he passed the last period of time smoothly, and pushed the wheat into the agency.

  But right now, Lao Tang quit the company early and abstained himself, and Mai Mai will definitely not join next year.

   In this way.

   JJ Thomson, who discovered electronics, and Godfrey Hardy, a little fan of wheat, also have a high probability of cutting off the possibility of joining the club, and Hardy's friend Bertrand Russell will most likely choose to refuse

   Hiss.

   Suddenly, so many "ZTE" bosses are missing.

  Isn't it very possible that the Cambridge Apostolic Society will not reach its future heights?

To know.

  The influence of the Apostolic Society on modern history is not necessarily all negative.

  To be honest, Britain is actually a very complicated country.

  They have brutal and shameless aggressive butchers, dark and inferior backstabs, and international friends who can sacrifice themselves for righteousness.

  If you have paid attention to British history, you will find that they often have examples of descendants of the upper class sympathizing with the common people, and even giving their lives for the common people.

   For example, the famous Cambridge Five.

  These five were real redists, and even led IM6 to issue a decision not to recruit any personnel in Cambridge in the late period of the war.

  So there are bad people in the Apostolic Club, but there are also neutral people or international friends.

   Not to mention that the contribution of the Cambridge Apostles Society in scientific research is not low. With the gradual improvement of the status of natural sciences, the Apostles Society will pay more attention to the absorption of scientific research talents in the future.

  Although some members of the Apostolic Society belonged to vested interests during the invasion of China, it would be cheap for them to be shot 800 times individually.

  But these people together cannot reach the concept of 'behind the scenes'. At most, they are just a weight to influence the direction to a certain extent.

  So when the field of vision is expanded to the whole of the Apostles Society, and the past is looked down from the span of two hundred years in the future, the merits of the Apostles Society will still outweigh its mistakes.

  If there are some bad changes in this society.

no doubt.

  When the final deduction is settled, this part will definitely be negative, and the deducted points must not be low.

  What should I do?

   Pata—

  Xu Yun couldn't help kicking a stone away, feeling a little annoyed.

   Then he glanced at Lao Tang beside him, suddenly thought of something, and asked:

   "By the way, Mr. Thomson, what about that man named Clement?

   "You obviously didn't provoke him, why did you feel like you've taken gunpowder?"

   "You said Clement"

  Hearing this name, Lao Tang first put his hands in his trouser pockets, looked up at the sky, and then said slowly:

   "He is a very radical, extreme racist."

  Xu Yun was taken aback for a moment, and repeated:

   "Racist?"

  Lao Tang nodded and continued:

   "Remember the story about Scotland and England in Chapter 223? Clement is a descendant of a northerner."

   "He only recognizes the kinship of England and Wales, and is extremely hostile to Scotland and Northern Ireland, let alone the distant eastern continent."

   "At present, he is a member of the British House of Commons and belongs to the Whig Party. He has repeatedly proposed to conquer Scotland by force."

   As he spoke, Old Tang paused, glanced at Avelyn beside him, and said again:

   "In addition, he is also the third president of the Apostles Society, and his status allows him to come into contact with a lot of secrets."

   "The attack we encountered at the beginning seems to have the shadow of Clement's forces behind it, and the probability is very high."

  Xu Yun froze when he heard the words.

   Good guy.

  Extreme nationalists, violent madness, and suspected to be related to the wheat attack

   Now you have to be right if you don't want to.

   Then he rolled his eyes and suddenly understood something:

   "The Whig Party, the party of which Henry John Temple was?"

  Old Tang nodded again and said:

   "The Whig Party is also divided into several factions. The faction behind Clement has shown some decline due to the failure of the attack, so he hopes to find a new faction to shelter and develop."

  Xu Yun nodded thoughtfully, suddenly realized.

I see

  In this way, everything makes sense

   At the very beginning, Lao Tang was squeezed out in the Apostles Club, and he was in a difficult situation.

  These exclusions mainly come from two aspects:

   First, it was targeted by the current president, Rossetti. The two had conflicts because of running for the president.

  Secondly, it was the hostility of Clement, an old commune member—Old Tang was a genuine Scot.

  At that time, in order to break the situation, Lao Tang took the initiative to apply, hoping to go to Scotland to pick up wheat.

  The next thing is to dig Xu Yun from the grave, and the night attack on the outpost

  Actually, after the night attack, Xu Yun has always had a question in his heart:

   Logically speaking.

  Cambridge University has a large number of people coming in and out every day, Lao Tang's itinerary will not be too eye-catching, and the transfer of this specification should be highly confidential in theory.

  But why can we see the portraits of Lao Tang and Mai on the body of Kurtz who was captured at the beginning—that is, the informant hunter in Mendi Solo Village?

   Now that Lao Tang said this, the puzzle has been easily solved:

  Because there is an inner ghost in the Apostle Club!

  A third president of the Apostles Society and a member of the House of Commons, it is not difficult to get in touch with this secret.

   Maybe from another angle.

  Perhaps it was precisely because of this incident that Clement and the forces behind him were exposed.

   On the other hand.

  Henry John Temple was a pillar of the Whig Party, but he was not part of the faction behind Clement. The attack should have little to do with the Foreign Secretary.

  So when faced with the counterattack of William Whewell, the real main force of the Cambridge department, he can leisurely watch the fire from the other side.

  After the failed attack, Clement noticed the change in the situation, and contacted some members of the Apostolic Society.

  They set the interview question of the Apostles Club as singing carols for Temple, which was used as a testimonial.

  All the doubts are connected into a thread, which can be completely solved today.

  Grass snake gray line, foreshadowing thousands of miles.JPG.

be honest.

   This trick is indeed a very subtle idea, but why did I meet such an unexpected visitor as Xu Yun who didn't play cards according to common sense.

  After all, even if you let him figure out all the dog's brains, you can't guess that there are traversers in this world.

   In other words.

  Inadvertently, Xu Yun actually ruined two good things for Clement.

   Then Xu Yun raised his head, glanced at the seemingly leisurely Lao Tang, and asked:

   "Mr. Thomson, what are you going to do next?"

  Lao Tang lowered his eyes, and at this moment his heart was far less relaxed than it seemed on the surface:

   "Let's take one step at a time. Anyway, I will graduate in more than a year, and I don't plan to stay in Cambridge University after graduation."

   "It's Avelyn, you were a little impulsive tonight, and you provoked an enemy like Clement for no reason."

   Avelyn shrugged at him when she heard the words, and said indifferently:

   "If you provoke me, please provoke me. Ancestor Lilani once left behind a saying, 'Punch first, and then ask all the questions when you punch'—this was what Mr. Fat Fish told her."

  Xu Yun:

   After speaking, Avelyn glanced at Lao Tang again, her azure blue eyes were faintly reflecting in the dark night, and she only heard her meaningful words:

   "It's Mr. Thomson, you are the one who is under the most pressure."

   "Next you will participate in the election of the President of the Student Federation. If you lose the election, it will not be a question of where to go after graduation."

   Hearing Aveline's words.

  Before Lao Tang had time to say something, Xu Yun was stunned.

  Yes, President of the Student Union.

  How could I forget about this?

  Lao Tang has completely fallen out with the Apostle Society now, and Rossetti and Clement, the two enemies of Lao Tang, are staring at each other.

  Even if you can guess with your toes, the Apostle Society will definitely support Lao Tang's opponent!

   In this way.

  The pressure on Lao Tang will be infinitely greater.

   After all, Huashan is the only way to run for president. Once he fails, the only thing waiting for him is the result of graduating from school.

  Not to mention the problem of task scoring, just because of the friendship that Xu Yun and Lao Tang formed during this period, he couldn't just sit back and watch this happen.

  Think here.

  Xu Yun's mind suddenly seemed to be grinding, and an idea came out without warning.

   He was silent for a moment, looking at Lao Tang and Avelyn aside.

  With an extremely subtle emotion in his tone, he said:

   "Senior Thomson, you said that if we also form a new club... is this idea feasible?"

   "What, forming a new club?"

  Lao Tang was taken aback for a moment, but soon frowned:

   "Of course there is no problem in simply establishing a new society, but if you want to compete with the Apostles Society, it may be very difficult in terms of difficulty."

  From the perspective of school regulations.

  Cambridge University has no restrictions on the formation of clubs for students, at least in terms of Lao Tang's contacts, there is obviously no pressure.

  But if combined with the current background, the new association Xu Yun mentioned is undoubtedly a new organization built towards the Apostolic Society.

  Although the number of people in the Apostolic Society is not large, its particularity is there, and it can be called the highest-ranking society in Cambridge.

  In the eyes of the school leaders, the rest of the clubs may not be as important as the Apostles Club.

  In this case, Xu Yun wants to build a society and make it surpass the Apostle Society.

   The difficulty is a bit high, and it can even be said to be whimsical.

  But he was opposite, Xu Yun seemed a little excited at this time:

   "No, no, Mr. Thomson, you may be wrong."

   "Maybe our newly established club will not be able to surpass the Apostles Club in all aspects in the short term, but if the scope is located within the school, I think it is still feasible."

   Talking and talking.

  Xu Yun's face suddenly became cloudy and uncertain, as if hesitating about something.

after awhile.

  He seemed to have made a certain decision, gritted his teeth, and said to Lao Tang with the expression of an old Chinese doctor hiding medicine on TV:

   "Mr. Thomson, to tell you the truth,"

   "Actually, the ancestors of Fat Yu left a lot of manuscripts, but quite a few of them involve the inheritance of the Fenglingyue Shadow Sect, and they are required to keep it secret."

   "Although our family's ancestral precepts are not to show these manuscripts to others easily, but the current situation is special, and I have no choice but to make a decision that goes against my ancestors."

  Looking at Xu Yun who had an expression of 'I'm an unfilial son', Lao Tang was slightly taken aback for a moment.

   Immediately, light appeared in his eyes.

  Fat fish?

  Yes, there is a fat fish behind Xu Yun!

  If it is said that Xu Yun does have some inheritance left by Fat Yu in his hands, maybe

   Is there really a chance?

  Prince Albert, who is now in power, is an industrial madman. It is not difficult to see from the establishment of a natural science degree at Cambridge University that the importance of technology in the high-level vision is constantly increasing.

  If Xu Yun can really come up with something attractive, Cambridge University will definitely support it.

   At that time, it may still be unable to compete with the Apostles Society at a higher level, but it may really be able to overwhelm the Apostles Society in the school:

   Don't say anything else.

  Based on the information that Lao Tang himself learned, there are currently many students in the school who are very interested in technology.

   Besides, there is a good saying.

   Anyway, it doesn't cost money, so try a little bit.

  If this new association can bring a little bit of support to itself in the election of the President of the Student Federation, or slightly hedge the pressure of the Apostles Association, it can be regarded as an unexpected surprise.

  Think here.

  Lao Tang stopped involuntarily, and asked Avelyn beside him:

   "Student Avelyn, what do you think?"

   Avelyn quietly glanced at Xu Yun, until he got a little hairy, and then said:

   "I don't have any objections. If you build a society, count me in."

  See this scenario.

  Xu Yun just breathed a sigh of relief.

   Exactly.

  Starting a new society, that's what he just had the idea for.

   After all, the Apostle Society is destined to lower its own score, so why not create a society with a higher score!

  Anyway, looking at the history of the Apostles Club for more than 200 years, the members who participated in politics during the 1850-1900 period were basically nothing good.

  That being the case.

  Why not abandon these cancerous tumors and set up a society with a more intense scientific research color?

   As for the confidence that this new society can compete with the Apostles Society, there are two main points.

  One is Xu Yun's identity as a time traveler. He may be a younger brother when it comes to politics, but he talked about science in 1850

joke.

   If you tie up the group of people from the Apostles Club, I'm afraid you won't be able to win a single finger from him.

  The second reason

  The Apostle Club is still very young, and Xu Yun's personal safety cannot be threatened by external moves.

  The year when the Apostolic Society was established was the 1820s. Later generations have different opinions on the specific year, but one thing is certain:

  Tennyson entered Cambridge University in 1828.

  Even considering the fact that Tennyson got acquainted with F.D. Morris three years ago, the actual establishment of the Apostolic Society will not be earlier than 1825.

  1850-1825=25.

  Based on the calculation of 'angels', that is, graduate students who enroll at the age of 22, the oldest of the first batch of apostles is only 47 years old.

   Not to mention that this is just the most ideal situation.

  Among the information that can be found in later generations, the first member of the Apostolic Society to enter the political arena is called Felipe Villa, who is only 42 years old now.

  Even if an apostle of this age enters the House of Commons, he is at most an ordinary member. That is, one of the 650 seats in the House of Commons.

  The status of a member of parliament is definitely very honorable in terms of the current British society, but there is still at least 15 years to go before the real power center.

so.

  If you are facing the Apostles Society in 2022, which will be scattered and connected to countless industries, Xu Yun will definitely not say a word, go back to the hotel, wash and sleep, and get some points deducted when you pay.

   But the Apostolic Society of 1850.

  Xu Yun thinks that there is still some chance to break his wrist.

Of course.

  The intention to establish a community is well established, but there are still many steps to go in practice.

for example

  Accept new things.

   Coincidentally.

  Lao Tang and Avelyn happened to book the same hotel, so the three of them saved the trouble of arranging another place to talk.

   After returning to the hotel.

  They quickly reunited in Xu Yun's guest room.

  Lao Tang first bought some common British appetizers such as dried fruit, mustard peas, fried pigskin, Cornish pasty, etc. from the front desk of the hotel, and then asked Xu Yun to bring back a bucket of butter beer.

  The three of them chatted about club affairs while drinking in the room.

   "Mr. Thomson, I think so."

  Xu Yun picked up a piece of fried pork skin from the dinner plate, put it in his mouth and chewed Kazkazi:

   "Our new society does not participate in politics or literature, and its only purpose is to explore scientific truth."

   "As for the venue, I will rent it from Dean Whewell first. With the events of the past few days as a basis, it must not be a big problem."

  William Whewell proposed the word scientist more than 20 years ago, so Lao Tang easily understood his thoughts and asked:

   "You mean to form a group of natural science enthusiasts?"

  Xu Yun nodded, affirming:

   "Yes, but the subjects may be more biased towards physics, chemistry and biology. I will not consider classical subjects for the time being."

   After he finished speaking, he paused, leaned his left elbow on the chair, changed to a more comfortable position, and said:

   "Actually, I have observed some situations in the school these days. Although natural science is a new subject, there are many potential audiences in the school."

   "Not to mention anything else, just the open space where we conducted experiments a few days ago, there have been people around there these days doing something."

  Lao Tang nodded slightly.

   He also knows what Xu Yun said. After Xu Yun's three rounds of experiments were over, some students have been trying to reproduce related experiments.

  The school did not order to stop it, and generously provided some brand new equipment for the students to try to restore.

   It's night now.

  There will be more than a dozen students gathered in that area, plus varying numbers of onlookers.

  So it's like what Xu Yun said.

  Although the course of natural science has only been established in Cambridge University recently, the audience still has great potential.

   In fact, it is normal to think about it.

   After all, science and literature are the two major fields of later generations.

   There are many people wandering in the ocean of literature, but there are also many people who like to experiment, right?

   Not to mention that 1850 was still in the enlightenment stage of modern science, and many experiments could actually be carried out without too sophisticated equipment.

  This unknown phenomenon is conceptually very impactful.

  In addition, there is a piece of data from later generations that can also prove this point:

  In the original history.

  In 1850, the number of freshmen at Cambridge University who chose natural sciences was 107, accounting for 16.5% of the freshmen.

  In 1852, the number rose to 176, accounting for 23%.

  In 1855, the number reached 297, accounting for 35%.

  This is still the number of majors, and there will be more students including electives.

  Looking at Xu Yun who was quite confident, Lao Tang pondered for a moment and asked:

   "Xu Yun, if the club is successfully established, how do you plan to recruit new people?"

   "Should I go directly to the open space to attract people, or print and distribute leaflets? Or recruit members privately?"

   Friends who have done sales in future generations should know it.

  It is one thing to turn a potential customer into a real consumer group, which is another matter.

  At present, Cambridge University can only be regarded as the soil for the development of scientific societies, but it is obviously not something that can be done in a short while to make these soils grow fruit.

   In Lao Tang's opinion.

   Xu Yun's methods of attracting people should be as follows:

  Go to the open space at night to try to persuade the students who have repeated the experiment, or just spread the leaflets widely.

   If it is a little more outrageous, I will personally dress up as a PY or something

  For example, the Apostolic Society back then.

   That's right.

  The Apostle Club also encountered difficulties in recruitment at the beginning:

  In the early days of the establishment of the club, Tennyson and others fell in love with a freshman named Gianelli Cone majoring in classical literature, but the other party had some resistance to joining the club.

   So Tennyson and the others collected some money privately and invited the other party to come as a guest in the form of a tea party.

   After more than a month of hard work, Gianelli Kone finally succumbed to the dessert of the Apostle Society

  By the way, let me say another very interesting thing.

  Didn't Tennyson later publish a "Lyric Poetry" at his own expense-that is, the one that prompted Hallam to write "On the Characteristics of Modern Poetry and Tennyson's Lyric Poems", and became a pauper after publication.

  Adding that Hallam and another F.D. Morris are also poor, so the Apostle Society once had no money to buy desserts.

  So in desperation.

  Tennyson had no choice but to personally pursue the daughter of the owner of a cake shop in London. Since then, the Apostle Club has a new source of desserts.

   That girl's name was Tina Selwood, who became Tennyson's sister-in-law twenty years later.

   Well, sister-in-law—in 1850, Tennyson married Tina Selwood's sister, Emily Selwood, and Tina Selwood was the bridesmaid.

   It's a good thing that Tennyson didn't live in the world of Conan, otherwise one person would have died in this matter, and two people might have died in a big episode

all in all.

  The Apostles Club with Tennyson, who was called a youth idol at the time, had such a difficult development at the beginning, let alone the new club that Xu Yun planned to establish.

   To be able to recruit ten people within two months, and to be able to see initial results within half a year to help myself, this is the limit that Lao Tang can foresee.

   As for how fast?

   Absolutely impossible!

  If this kind of thing can really happen, he will go and eat the ax in the wheat dormitory on the spot!

  In the guest room.

   Facing Lao Tang's question, Xu Yun leisurely picked up a pea, stuffed it into his mouth, and said while chewing:

   "Mr. Thomson, I have some ideas about the recruitment plan. I am sure that after the establishment of the club, one... No, within two weeks, more than 20 members will be recruited."

  Lao Tang didn't notice the number Xu Yun said at first, so he vaccinated him according to his original idea:

   "Well, this goal is still a bit high. The underwear club I founded only recruited three people in a month. Wait?"

   While talking, Lao Tang suddenly realized.

  I saw him staring at Xu Yun in a daze, and after a while, his voice was raised a lot:

   "What are you talking about? 20 members in two weeks?"

  Looking at Lao Tang with the expression of "Do you know how many people there are at Cambridge University", Xu Yun nodded again:

   "That's right, 20 members in two weeks."

  Xu Yun's tone was very calm. In fact, if he hadn't considered the **** weather in England, he would have planned to talk about it for a week.

   is across from him.

"you"

  Old Tang opened his mouth, and subconsciously wanted to refute it.

  But immediately he thought of Xu Yun's previous operations, and his expression suddenly became uncertain.

  Since he knew Xu Yun, he has seen too many strange things from this oriental man.

   After a few seconds.

  He took a deep look at Xu Yun and asked:

   "Luo Feng, what are you going to do?"

  Xu Yun spread his hands when he heard the words, and said directly:

   "Confidential."

  Old Tang and Aveline:

  See this scenario.

  Xu Yun couldn't help but sighed, and explained aloud:

   "Mr. Thomson, I'm afraid you don't understand that we in the East have some special customs in this regard."

   "It's just that if I say something now, I won't subscribe in the future, bah, it won't work."

   "So please forgive me, I will tell you when the time is right."

  Old Tang Jian said that he and Avelyn looked at each other, and they both saw helplessness in each other's eyes.

   "Never mind."

   I don't know if Xu Yun's previous operation gave Lao Tang confidence. He really didn't ask Xu Yun about the plan, but asked:

   "In this case, you can get an application form from me when you go back, and go through the process as soon as possible."

   After speaking, he thought of something again, and continued to ask:

   "By the way, have you settled on the name of the club yet?"

  Xu Yun shook his head and asked:

   "Why, Mr. Thomson, do you have any good advice?"

  Old Tang picked up the beer and took a sip, wiped the corner of his mouth when he was done, and said:

   "It does have some ideas."

   Then he looked at Xu Yun and Avelyn, thought for a moment, and said:

   "Although natural science is an emerging subject, judging from the current trend, its barriers are actually higher than literature, right?"

  Xu Yun and Aviline nodded together.

   Well known.

  Although there are some villains in the scientific and literary circles, but from the perspective of horizontal comparison, the moisture in the literary world is obviously greater.

  In the scientific world, even the kind of people with mixed qualifications can pass the basic knowledge more or less, and the professional knowledge can even fool some laymen.

   But the literary world is different.

   There is a saying in later generations that you can write poetry as long as you know the space bar, which is enough to explain many things.

   For example, Jia, or Zhao Zhuzi.

  So from the concept of industry barriers.

  Science is indeed higher than literature.

  Seeing that Xu Yun and Avelyn agreed, Lao Tang became more talkative:

   "So the members we recruit in the future must be potential talents in related fields, so I think the name of our association, why not call it Shueisha"

  Xu Yun:

   "Not right not right."

  Xu Yun didn't say anything yet, Aveline shook her head:

   "The name Shueisha is a bit silly. Mr. Thomson, the ancestor of Newton once said that physics is to complement human cognition, so I think it can be called the Human Completion Committee."

   "Student Aveline, why don't we set a benchmark, which means surpassing the literature club, and call it the Yuewen Group."

   "It doesn't sound good, Mr. Thomson, isn't our club going to explore science to understand everything? Let's call it Know, which is Xiao Organization"

"Student Avelyn, what do you think of this? We are going to be wavers of the new era, singing and dancing on the top of the waves in the sea, taking the number seven that God created the world, and attaching respect to Her Royal Highness, which is called Under the king, seven dances in the sea."

  Xu Yun's scalp became more and more numb when he heard it, and finally couldn't help interrupting:

   "Enough, listen to me!"

  Lao Tang and Aviline looked at him together.

  Xu blinked, pondered for a moment, and said:

   "Ancestor Fat Yu met two people in the East, one was Mr. Sai and the other was Mr. De."

   "Later, the ancestors felt it and built a school to talk about academics on the spur of the moment."

   "It's called"

   "Gewushe!"

   Codewords all night, probably a lot of typos, wake up to correct.
