Chapter 2: Dr. Einstein

Chapter 2: Dr. Einstein

Wilhelm originally wanted to humbly appoint talents, but he didn't expect that the lecture went on for two hours.

As a result, since he didn't want to give up halfway, waiting for Dr. Einstein, his back was sore.

Seeing the students exiting the lecture theatre in an orderly manner and each person preparing for the next class, Wilhelm couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. He moved his stiff limbs and walked into the classroom.

Dr. Einstein, who was sorting out the lesson plans on the podium, noticed the two people who came by and asked. "Is there anything wrong with you two?"

Wilhelm gave a standard nobleman's courtesy. "Hello, Dr. Einstein, I am Wilhelm Hohenzollern. I am here to visit you."

"Hohenzollern?" Dr. Einstein didn't seem to react at all, he murmured twice before suddenly reacting. "His Royal Highness!"

Wilhelm looked around subconsciously and nodded after making sure that there was no one else. "Exactly." The source of this content nov(el)bi((n))

Dr. Einstein asked slightly cramped. "I don't know what your highness wants from me?"

Although Einstein opposed the monarchy, in the past ten years, he saw clearly the incompetence of the government and the incompetence of the common people, this made a little change in his concept. The German people are still living in dire straits, far worse than during the reign of William II. And recently there are rumors everywhere that if Germany restores the emperor system, the situation may be much better. Einstein was not disgusted with such rumors. He thought that if William II could completely abandon his crazy ambition to conquer the world and concentrate on governing Germany, the situation in Germany might really improve a lot.

Dr. Einstein shook his head somewhat puzzled. "But Your Highness, our earth is so big and energy is limited, but our population keeps growing."

Wilhelm couldn't help snapping his fingers. "You are right when you say that the population will continue to grow. You know that the world population has exceeded 1 billion and by 1830 it will reach the 2 billion mark. With the advancement of medicine, the birth rate will increase. , The death rate will drop. We can boldly predict that the world population will exceed 3 billion in 30 years and 6 billion in 50 years. How many people do you think our planet can bear?"

"..." Einstein never considered this issue.

Einstein seriously calculated it. Halfway through the calculation, he found another problem. "His Royal Highness Wilhelm, I don't think the number of people on the earth is a problem. The biggest problem is the scale and nature of the consumption of resources." The population may really continue to grow, but the earth will not become larger. All kinds of resources-food, water, and energy are limited. The number of people depends on their support. Once these resources are exhausted, the end of mankind will come.

Wilhem nodded. "Yes, so we need to find endless resources so that humans can continue to multiply and survive."

Wilhelm repeatedly emphasized the inexhaustible resources, and Einstein couldn't help but wonder. "Where are the endless resources you are talking about? Under the sea or underground?"

"You can see by just raising your head." Jannick smiled slightly and raised his fingers to the sky. "The endless resources I'm talking about are the starry sky above us. The universe will be the last frontier of mankind. Only by stepping into the universe can we avoid the fate of extinction."

Seeing Einstein's shocked expression, Wilhelm couldn't help but feel refreshed. "Humans have to leave the earth if they want to explore the universe. This is just the first step. The second is to land on the moon, then Mars, and then the entire solar system. In the future, our steps will eventually move beyond the solar system. Set foot on the sea of stars. And the super energy in your formula may be the driving force for us humans to explore the universe."

Wilhelm gradually became a little impatient and said with a dry tongue. "If Dr. Einstein wants to insist on your narrow and pedantic worldview, then I have nothing to say. But I have something to say to you. You and I are just a dust in the universe. If you want to be alone It would be a big mistake to think that you can change the course of history. It's like no one can change the direction of a big river. Perhaps some accidental factor may change the direction of the river, but in the end it will eventually return to its place. The direction to go. This is the law of nature, the inevitability of history! People who cannot keep up with the trend of history can only called pedantic!!"

After leaving these words, Wilhelm bowed to the stunned Dr. Einstein and turned to leave.
