For this conviction of his, he is willing to stake his entire property on a bet. However, his journey is full of adventures. Will his naive yet faithful servant, a bunch of dangerous thieves, a fatal acquaintance and a merciless Scotland Yard inspector manage to drag him off his goal? How easy will it be for him to travel by a steamboat, a hot-air baloon, a train, even an elephant, in a universe full of incidents, where nothing is considered unexpected?
