Due to the development of India by the East India Company, British nobles and wealthy people now like to hire an Indian chef, and even Queen Victoria is no exception. However... Downing hates the taste of curry. Facing Lionel's Indian dinner, Downing expressed helplessness and made up his mind that he would not go to other people's houses to have dinner at any time in the future, especially for families who think they are very fashionable. If you don't eat them all, they think you won't give face, alas!

Not only do you have to deal with the full table of curry rice, but also with the "spreading bricks and jade" of the master Rothschild. No matter what the other party throws over, Tangning thinks it is a brick. Can people from the information age know less than those from the Victorian era?

Sure enough, Lionel began to bring the topic to the radio: "Mr. Windsor, is it possible for your radio to cross a relatively long distance in the future? For example - the English Channel?"

Tangning: "This...my goal is to cross the Atlantic Ocean. There is a kind of radio wave with a wavelength of 100 kilometers and the radius of the earth is only more than 6,000 kilometers. Ultra-long waves can span quite a long distance."

There is a wavelength of 100 kilometers! Lionel frowned and said, "Where do you come from these astronomical figures? What is the sun 6 billion years later? This is really...sensational!"

Tang Ning smiled mysteriously and said, "You don't understand the world of science madmen. Some are mathematics, some are experiments, and some are intuition."

"Okay!" Lionel was a little dissatisfied. The excuse of "scientific maniac" can handle everything. "I want to invest in this business, so you should open a price. You can quote a price across the English Channel, and you can open a price across the Atlantic."

Seeing this financier's arrogant appearance, Tang Ning suddenly had an idea that it would be better to start a trans-foreign telegraph company independently without being controlled by anyone, and be responsible to any client, keep it as strictly as a Swiss financier, and treat all democratic countries, all upright businessmen, and just people equally. What an idealistic innovation. If you can create such a company, it seems that making money will become a disposable little thing. Is it better to be a person who changes the world or a nouveau riche?

Switzerland... Yes, why don't you go to Switzerland to develop! Of course, it's not now, after being famous, Switzerland... Unfortunately, Switzerland is a small landlocked country. In the era of sailing, Tangning had a brainless shipbuilding technology, and was really unwilling to accept it.

He was distracted, and Lionel was even more dissatisfied and snorted coldly.

Tang Ning had no choice but to offer: "Well, 100 million pounds...I can give you 10% of the shares of the Telegram Company."

Mr. Rothschild and Mrs. Rothschild both looked at this scientific madman with an idiot-looking look. No, he was a madman.

Downing laughed: "I'm sorry! Just kidding, I mean I don't know what the prospects of this technology are. I'm not a poor man, why should I covet tens of thousands of pounds? In fact, I yearn for my academic career. I solved a mathematical problem on a boat from India to London, but I don't know if Cambridge and Oxford would make me a professor because of this ability, Mr. Rothschild, Madam, do you have any mathematicians you know?"

If the Rothschilds were as warm as the Smiths, maybe Downing would have allowed them to gain a place in the telegraph company. Unfortunately, the Luo family regarded themselves very highly and believed that they could trample everything under their feet, just as he dared to challenge the religious habits of the British House of Representatives. So Downing had to leave Gennasbailey Garden with their cold expression on their back.

After returning to the East India Club, Tang Ning always felt restless, and he almost turned into Tang Bu Ning. He felt that he was too weak, wasn’t he just a rich man? So what if he offended me? Can I still be unable to stay in the free Greater London?

Maybe it was because the evil image of the Jewish financier created by the Nazis was too deeply rooted in people's hearts?

It shouldn't be that right? I am such a rational person, how could I influence my judgment because of a distorted promotional video? So what's the problem? Well... Maybe finance is not a good thing in my eyes. That's right, everyone cannot do without finance. From civilians to nobles, from entrepreneurship to infrastructure, from rich people to national wars, capital is the foundation. But capital is the power of a capitalist society, and it relies on the power and power to make profits. This is different from the sweat of scientists and engineers working, invention and creation.

Next, Tang Ning was surprised to find that he had become a kind idealist in this era. Maybe... maybe because he gained the mainstream status too quickly. He suddenly became an inventor and was recognized by the absolute upper class of this era. In just one year, he was able to go to the home of the richest man in the world for a meal. Although it was not very pleasant, this symbolic meaning was amazing. Since the life of "exile" was pretty good, his mentality naturally improved and he no longer regarded himself as a freak who was exiled to another world for "drug trafficking". Maybe when he had a certain status, he could join the anti-drug army and become a gravedigger of the East India Company.

Since I have an "ideal", I have to take responsibility. Let my first battle start with fighting against Rothschild. Tsk, it's really exciting. As soon as I came to England, I was ready to fight against the most powerful people in the City of London, the passionate Tang Ningjun.

Let's get started. Although I just came to London and wanted to take a good rest, there is one big event that is too late. The World Industrial Expo will be held in three months. At that time, 44 countries from Europe and America will show off their latest industrial achievements in the world. The host British Empire and its colonies are the protagonists of this feast that has been a masterpiece since the Industrial Revolution. As the actual manager of India, the most important colony of the British Empire, the East India Company has no choice but to take out its own specialty and add glory to Her Majesty the Queen. The Indian Governor firmly believes that the wireless telegraph technology "from India" will make people all over the world shudder. This is his greatest political achievement since taking office. What's more, even if he is not in office in the future, he will be one of the three major investors in the East India Company's Communications Laboratory, which can be said to be endless glory and wealth.

Tang Ning also hopes that he can use practical telegraph technology within three months, and not to use flashy goods with communication distances of more than ten meters to fool people.

Samuel Smith is the most sensible guy Downing has ever met. As a wealthy family, he actually made a fuss and took Downing around London, wandering around various chemical stores, blacksmith shops, woodworking houses, etc. This sincerity is really touching.

Finally, in the eastern suburbs of London, not far from the East India Company building, Downing rented a twelve-room double-storey villa as a laboratory. His accommodation was also moved to the second floor of the villa. The villa with a small garden was in a good environment, which forced him to pay attention to the emission of toxic wastewater and waste gas during the experiment to avoid poisoning this charming villa. The laboratory is not far from the Thames River, which allowed him to take a walk by the river frequently and imagine where to build a large shipyard.

All laboratory work is done by himself, because Tang Ning is not familiar with the various chemical and industrial products of this world. He often uses the black technology he brought from the future, so he is unwilling to hire an assistant. He is both a blacksmith, a carpenter, a potter, a scientist, and an engineer. This kind of life is really hard, but this is the difficult beginning of entrepreneurship. After he made a big splash at the World Industrial Expo, even if he wants to go back, he will not be able to come back. There will be countless pairs of eyes staring at this super inventor in this world. He often visits the London Library and slowly understands the technical level of this era. When radio theory is not established, no one can understand his invention even if he applies for a patent. This also means that the application process is likely to be unsuccessful. How can the guys in charge of approval understand?

During the days when he was preparing to work, Tang Ning was troubled by a problem. The dim oil lamp at work at night made him feel uncomfortable. He decided to create the electric lamp first. This invention was purely for his own use, so he did not consider industrialization, and just separated the key materials used with a molecular separator. The basic principle of the electric lamp is to heat a heat-resistant material, tungsten wire, to an incandescent state. At this time, the electric lamp is easy to oxidize, so an inert gas is also needed. Argon is a relatively ideal, because it is available in the air and can be separated, and tungsten is also a widely distributed element, almost everywhere in various rocks. After separation, it can be pulled into wire by violently. The glass cover outside is simple, and you can buy it at the glass workshop. There are many oil lamp workshops that produce glass lampshades. Although it is not an ideal shape, it can be used barely, which is enough.

The batteries are too weak now, and they can only use a large number of them to connect them in series to generate enough current. This is quite luxurious. When it is for scientific research, Tang Ning used a large number of batteries without hesitation, making his laboratory always brightly lit at night. Passers-by looked from afar and thought it had caught fire.

The invention of the electric lamp was also a very remarkable achievement, but Tang Ning devoted himself to making radio telegraphs, and even the things that made Edison and General Electric temporarily left aside until one night Rollinson came to visit and was stunned by the brightness in his laboratory.

Tang Ning said proudly: "This is nothing, it will be brighter after my own battery is made."

Luo Linsen once again saw the master's skills and exclaimed: "Excellent, amazing, this can already build a factory with unlimited prospects. I think the wireless telegram can be released, and the factory can be built to generate cash flow. You can do research and how long it takes to study it. Has anyone noticed this great invention? Do I want to invest too late?"

Tang Ning: "You have to be focused on doing things. Since I promised the Governor to try to display wireless telegraphs at the World Industrial Expo, then you should do it well. What's more, this kind of equipment that relies on batteries to generate lighting is too expensive and few families can afford it. In the future, I will build a power plant and use large-scale steam engines to generate electricity, and the era of electric lights will come."
