"Ladies and gentlemen! Please come and have a look!"

"We have surprises here! New technology here!"

"Our light bulbs are different! It's really different!"

The same is true for the World Expo in Vienna, and also outside Rotonada. It is also a stall, but there are too few people stopping at this stall.

The reason why there are few people is very simple, that is, the things exhibited in this stall are basically big goods, light bulbs, and many stalls have already displayed this thing.

You should know that although electricity has not been popularized in Europe, especially in Vienna, there are many power suppliers in this World Expo. To put it bluntly, merchants selling light bulbs come to show their products.

Because everyone has seen that this next era must be the electrical era. Among them, the most are the American Empire and Britain. As for others, there are very few. Germany has technology for displaying electricity, but there are fewer types and there are not enough varieties. This stall...

From France!

From France, this matter is a bit strange, because as far as France is concerned, there are really not many scientists in that place, and the French are too romantic, but, in terms of electricity, France is really awesome, the famous Ampere, which has played a great role in promoting the development of electricity. However, after all, it was something that happened decades ago!

Yes. Now all the electricity can be used, and everyone has created the light bulb. Although it is created this thing... hey. It seems that it is the emperor of the American Empire. I heard that this emperor doesn’t know much about electrical theory, but it is very useful in terms of application. If you say that this guy is a Chinese, Chinese, then there might be magic from the East.

Many Europeans, even white people in the United States, have made so many new things about the Emperor Li Mengyang. Most of them explain this, that is, magic and miracles are related to the East. Anyway, they don’t know much about the East.

But, when it comes to the electrical level in France, it’s really a mess!

Because of the French, they were born with the British, and they had a bad relationship with the American Empire before. In addition, they were also an old-fashioned power, so they had a proud temperament. So I heard that they built a power system themselves.

I heard that this power system was made by a guy named Thomas Edison from America.

Yes! It's Thomas Edison, but this guy now is quite down and out...

"Why do your light bulbs look like this?" After all, it was the World Expo, and it was impossible for no one to be left. At this time, Thomas Edison, who was in front of the French Electric Power booth, was licking the candied haws in hand, pointing at a flashing light bulb and asking questions.

Not bad, if a guest arrives, hello, so Edison, who had nothing to do, came in person.

"Ha! You said this light bulb, this is our latest product. How about it, it looks good, right?" Edison was really confident about his products. He dared to say that there would definitely be no light bulbs like us in other places!

Yes, Edison is so confident, but the kid licked the candied haws... Needless to say where this thing was bought, we can't come in vain... He just said:

"But why does this thing look so much like a little*?"

this……

That's right, the light bulb that the child pointed at is indeed very rare, because it is not a 'bubble', it is three bubbles, two are small and one is long, and the one is still in the middle... It is indeed a relatively image.

"Whose child is this?" Edison was so angry!

Edison has not been doing well recently. Although he came to France at the beginning and brought his own invention, that is, electric lights... Of course, he knew how this thing came about, but he never knew it. In fact, he was the original... But this thing was very good at the beginning, and Edison was also very popular in France.

The reason is also very simple. That is, the electric lights brought by Edison, that is, DC power lamps, just solved the problem of France. That is, the electric lights of the United Kingdom and the American Empire are all AC power lamps. So we French use DC power, so this is different. We can fight against the British again, okay!

This is really the reason, so Edison was regarded as a guest of honor by Thiers, but the good times did not last long.

In the past, when humans have not understood electricity well, they really don’t understand it. But when we can apply electricity and practice it, it is easy to see that there is actually not much difference. It is nothing but the voltage of the alternating current is higher and the voltage of the direct current is low.

In fact, these two currents have a wide range of applications. This is true. For example, AC power, the advantage is that the voltage is high, and the transmission is relatively easy. It can be transmitted far and far, and the voltage can be very high. DC power can also make the light bulb light up. Then some devices that emphasize safety can be used, especially computers in later generations, which require DC power.

However, the current situation is in the early stages of power application. During this period, the disadvantage of low DC voltage is particularly obvious!

Let’s talk about Edison now, he is the direct victim, because his set of things is all DC. So from the step of power generation, we have to do DC, so the voltage cannot be high. Since the voltage cannot be high, the transmission distance is naturally greatly limited!

Just imagine, if you generate electricity, you either burn coal or oil, or you have to build a hydropower station. But no matter what, you can't transmit DC power too far. So nowadays, if you want to enjoy the electric light, you have to move it to the edge of the dam?

It’s okay to talk about oil and coal, but now you use oil and coal generators to noise and pollution. There is such a person next to your house, so don’t even want to sleep!

So, something that seems pretty good was originally placed on the French people, "We work with the British and the American Empire, and we rely on you to Edison." But unfortunately, things went against our wishes.

After so many years of trouble, when Thier went to the American Empire, the empire's power equipment entered France, the French people all said it was OK!

If the transmission is far, more people can enjoy the benefits of electricity. Of course, everyone doesn’t have to move. In fact, they can’t move even if they want to, because after the steam industrial revolution, most of the riversides are factories and have been occupied.

In fact, the most important thing is the low cost!

Just imagine, how many light bulbs can a hydropower station make? Let’s build a small dam first, which is enough for Paris according to current needs!

Therefore, Edison's life is very difficult now, and it can be said that he has taken a sudden turn. The reason why he was able to come to this World Expo was decided early in the morning. Yes, the Austro-Hungarian Emperor had not even gone to the American Empire yet.

By the way, that old guy named Tier regretted it. If he had known this, he would not have supported Edison, the American, and the money for the Expo... was spent anyway. Wouldn't it be even more cost-effective if he didn't come.

So Edison was preparing to make a last try. He really thought of a lot of ideas, such as making the light bulb into a jj shape... This was really not intentional, but I didn't blow it well when I was blowing the glass, and then Edison liked it very much at first sight. This is also a creativity, right?

Edison, whose life is so difficult, has not yet fallen to the bottom. At least he lives like a fool than before. However, Edison who came to the World Expo in Vienna was a bit strange.

Of course, this has nothing to do with the naughty kid who eats candied haws, but after sending the naughty kid, Edison had nothing to do, and the guy was walking around until he returned to a small house behind his stall.

As soon as Edison entered the room, a voice sounded from his back. Obviously, the person who made the voice was just standing behind the door, and he was preparing. It seems that the person was wrong and he would take action?

"How about it?"

"No, nothing is going on."

Edison answered whispering, but the voice did not ask too much, but closed them.

"If you have nothing to do, don't go out! What do you care about that kind of child? Also, what news will be found? Will that person appear according to the plan? Are there any changes?"

The series of problems in this business seem to...

"No! Nothing! Sir, do I think we are..." Edison answered truthfully, but his tone now trembled, obviously scared.

However, at this time, the voice no longer hid by the door. He walked over and came to Edison in front of him. He revealed his true face, this person...

If it was George Lee here, he would definitely exclaim, isn't this General Forrest?!

That's right, the one who appeared in front of Edison was Nathan Forrest, the founder of the 3KKK party who had encouraged George Lee to assassinate the Emperor of the Empire in the South!

However, the current founder has a figure...slim, very thin, and thin!

Although Nathan Forrest was definitely not fat before, he was a brave general in combat, but his weight at this time could make people see a pathological situation. So what's going on?

"Mr. Forrest, let's not continue. I have heard before that man has many guards, and he seems..." What does Edison mean?

"Stop talking nonsense! Of course I know that he has a lot of guards! That evil guy, of course, he knows that his life is being remembered by many people! And... he used to be lucky, but now this guy is about to fall into my hands, hehe!" Forrest's face showed a hideous smile.

Who is the guy he is talking about?

Could it be...(To be continued)
