Chapter 824: Master Li's Plan to Add Fuel to the Fire

As the saying goes, an innocent man is guilty of possessing a treasure. Li Mingshen brought back so many books. As long as he can understand and master those knowledge theories, it is not difficult to imagine what kind of wave of the times he will set off.

That's not just Baidu Encyclopedia.

In the special historical environment of the early 19th century, the speed of human civilization progress can be said to be changing with each passing day.

Along with the development of productivity, various social and humanities disciplines have also experienced explosive leaps forward. Every now and then, a new theory, new technology, or new profession is born...

What ordinary people learn in history textbooks is only one percent of it... One percent is an exaggeration. It can be said that 99.9 percent of ordinary people have not even read the first page of the Marxist manifesto.

I believe everything the AI-synthesized articles on self-media public accounts say, and I feel like I am invincible.

What Li Mingshen brought back was a lot of useful information.

These include a large number of Western social science classics and documents that have been translated into Chinese, various reference books and textbooks... For scholars of this era, it is already very difficult to translate one or two of them in a lifetime.

People who have never done translation work cannot understand the difficulty of this job. In the eyes of some children, Chinese translation groups may have grown out of mobile phones for free.

In addition to these foreign documents, there are also various theoretical doctrines and practical discussions on the new government system published by domestic experts and scholars.

It all comes down to one sentence: why is it possible to do this but not that?

Li Mingshen himself is a teacher, and no one understands the value of these books better than him.

Although he is old, his students can save themselves a dozen or even decades of detours by learning this knowledge!
But the question is...will the court allow him to spread these theories?

When sending him back, Wang Yunxiao felt that something would happen to him sooner or later.

However, it will be sooner or later, at least a few years later, when this knowledge is truly spread and has a social impact, before it will attract the attention of conservatives.

By that time Wang Yunxiao had already withdrawn.

However, out of caution, Wang Yunxiao still asked Chen Yan to keep an eye on Li Mingshen's house.

This is an ability that Qi Zhao can use. He can leave a mark in a certain place, and then observe the mark anytime and anywhere and return to the location of the mark.

In the past, when they were training in the outer dimension, they asked Chen Yan to open the door and return to the real world. This principle was applied.

Just now, Chen Yan suddenly had a feeling and looked towards Li Mingshen's house. What she saw was a raging fire in the study.

Was it an accident? Or was it set on purpose?
Wang Yunxiao didn't have time to think about it, and immediately gave the order: "Everyone gather! Follow me!"

Han Bin, who was pretending to be dead, jumped up and said, "What happened? Do you need help?"

"To put out the fire."

"Let's go together!"

"Don't do that, Old Han, you should take the others to stay and look after the house!"

"What's there to see? You don't have any gold bars here. Let's go together!"

The main reason why Han Bin drank and pretended to be drunk before was that he was a little moved by the uncle's instigation.

Reason told him not to listen to the uncle, but he couldn't bear it emotionally. The Secret Service repeatedly emphasized not to be emotional, and the importance of protecting one's own barriers was far higher than helping others build houses. If you want to do something, there are a lot of things waiting for you at home. Even if there is shit and urine, you have to stay in your own field.

If not for this, with Han Bin's personality, he would have let himself go long ago.

How much sorrow can you have? It's like a eunuch going to a brothel.

There is no other way, we have to put Daju first.

By the time Wang Yunxiao and his men rushed over, it was actually a little late. The fire in the backyard of the Li Mansion had already illuminated half of the sky red.

All the family members in the back house had been evacuated, and young and old were sitting on the street in a daze.

Li Mingshen was squatting in the corner with his pipe in his mouth, smoking silently. After not seeing him for a few days, the old man's hair, which had already turned gray, had now turned completely white.

When Wang Yunxiao rushed to the door, the Water Dragon Team was already trying their best to save the situation, but it was just a drop in the bucket and better than nothing.

Youtiao narrowed his eyes, leaned toward the door, sniffed, and gave Wang Yunxiao a look.

Wang Yunxiao understood what he meant, walked up to Li Mingshen, squatted down and asked in a low voice: "Sir, what happened?"

Li Mingshen sighed, "I was a bad teacher, and one of my disciples betrayed his master and ancestors. The news leaked out, and the Japanese paid a large sum of money to buy the machine tool drawings. In order to achieve their goal, they even used the eunuchs in the palace to bully others. In the end, I took out a foreign gun to force them to retreat. I didn't expect..."

"I didn't expect they would dare to steal books? Not only stealing books, but also setting fire?"

Li Mingshen sighed heavily and nodded slowly.

"Sir, I'm not afraid to brag to you, but my brothers and I have some common sense about murder and arson in the past. With the momentum of the fire in your house, I'm afraid it would not have achieved this effect without 200 kilograms of kerosene. Did the Japanese come here with oil barrels on their backs?"

Li Mingshen looked up in surprise and met Wang Yunxiao's meaningful gaze.

"I am ashamed... I have been teaching for my whole life, but I really have no experience in this area. I am sorry to make you laugh, Lord Wang."

"Why is this so?"

Wang Yunxiao really couldn't understand it. Li Mingshen was a professor at the school, with many students under his tutelage. In this era when scholars still had a noble status, it was not something that anyone could do anything about. But he was so scared because a Japanese came to his door that he didn't hesitate to set fire to his own house?
Li Mingshen sighed and said, "Lord Wang is used to eating new rice and doesn't know the taste of old rice. It's not that I can't cook a mere Japanese, but the real problem is... Do you know how many scholars and nobles regard this new rice as a poisonous scorpion and a ferocious beast?"

Wang Yunxiao couldn't help but be surprised and said, "It's already this day and age, and they still can't recognize the reality?"

"Who says they can't recognize it? They recognize it too clearly. But what's in your mind is one thing, and the rice bowl in your hand is another."

Li Mingshen said coldly, "Since ancient times, there has been no first in literature and no second in martial arts. If a sage's classics are tampered with by three or five words, people will be killed. Not to mention these Western heresies that have nothing to do with the classics of the sages in their eyes. I originally planned to study with my students behind closed doors for a while, but I didn't expect the news to leak out so quickly. I can only make other plans."

"What are your plans?"

"Take advantage of the enemy's tactics and let them go in order to catch them!"

Li Mingshen raised his lips slightly, revealing a smile: "If you promote these new books openly, the government can cover up the publicity by saying that they are against books and banned books. But if the Japanese are so eager to set fire to these treasures, it will definitely arouse the curiosity of many people."

"You set your house on fire just for this. Is it worth it?"

"value!"
