The story transcends geographical boundaries and takes place during a time when intellectual and spiritual horizons were on the verge of expanding. Joseph, a jeweler, is in search of a suitable spouse for his beloved daughter, Sophie. Despite turning away 23 individuals driven by greed, hope shines with the arrival of the 24th suitor, Alan, who happens to be the heir to the Duke of Rohan. Although one might assume that being the eldest son of a noble family, Alan would not be interested in money, he surprises everyone by expressing a simple desire, “Please feed me!” His true passion lies in mathematics, and he plans to relinquish his family estate to his younger brother to dedicate himself fully to his studies. Joseph is skeptical but intrigued by this unique approach, wondering if there might be alternative ways for Alan to find a patron to support his research without staying at his parents’ house.
