Crimson Dawn

28 chapter

In the next few days, Chen Ke once again entered the time of almost no sleep.First of all, there is an endless stream of guests who come to visit.Many of these people have read books, or are small workshop owners.They either saw the poster, met by chance, or heard someone's introduction, in short, after watching You Gou's lecture.These are people who want to enroll their children in school.

Chen Ke privately referred to these people as "adding chaos".But this group of people is still very important to Chen Ke. Due to the lack of social connections, they must not offend their parents.Until Qi Hui told Chen Ke excitedly that an old gentleman named Ma Xiangbo wanted to meet Chen Ke.Chen Kexin said, how much face does it take to make Qi Huishen come and announce to him in person.

"Wen Qing, you must go!" Qi Huishen lost his composure in excitement.

"What's going on?" Chen Ke was very surprised.

After Qi Huishen's introduction, Chen Ke was dumbfounded.This Mr. Ma Xiangbo is actually the founder of Fudan University.

Chen Ke has never studied the history of Chinese schools, so he doesn't know.Ma Xiangbo founded Aurora University.In the spring of the 31st year of Guangxu, the Jesuits wanted to turn Zhendan into a missionary school. They appointed French priest Nan Congzhou (Perrin) as the head teacher on the grounds of letting Ma Xiangbo "recover from illness", changed the school's running policy, and established separate regulations. card, all drop out.When Ma Xiangbo saw the signature book of the dropout students, he burst into tears. He decided to stand by the students. September 1905, 9) officially started.Ma Xiangbo served as the principal and professor of French, and Li (Denghui)—not the one in Taiwan—was hired as the dean.In the 13th year of Guangxu, Aurora University, which was taken over by the Jesuits, planned to relocate to Lujiawan. Ma Xiangbo still focused on running the school, regardless of previous suspicions. He donated 34 yuan in cash and 4 foundations in the public concession and the French concession (valued at 8 yuan at the time) Diverse), to purchase 10 acres of land on Luban Road (now Chongqing South Road) to build a new school building (later Shanghai Second Medical University, which was merged with Shanghai Jiaotong University on July 100, 2005).

And this Ma Xiangbo was planning to build Aurora Women's College of Arts and Sciences in 1902, which was renamed Shanghai Xiangming Middle School in 1952.Chen Ke's lectures are well-known in Shanghai,

Chen Ke didn't know Aurora University, but when Qi Huishen mentioned Fudan Public School, no matter how stupid Chen Ke was, he would never forget Fudan University.It turns out that this big lecture held by Chen Ke is already well known in Shanghai.The debut of Mrs. Yu Gou is a highlight.As a result, even Mr. Ma Xiangbo was alarmed.He listened to the lectures given by the students, and read several Huangpu reviews distributed for free, and was extremely satisfied with this set of popular science lectures.Among the dropout students from Aurora University, some of them participated in the lectures given by the Huangpu Institute. Through the reports of the students, Mr. Ma heard that the host of this lecture was actually an overseas student who had never heard of it.There are also some rumors about Yougou.The old man was interested, so he asked someone to find Qi Huishen, a local, and invited Chen Ke to meet him later.

Chen Ke naturally had to go when such a respected old gentleman spoke.According to what the old man said, besides Chen Ke, he also wanted to meet Mr. You Gou Nv, who has been getting a lot of limelight recently.Chen Ke hurriedly asked Qi Huishen to inform You Gou. In addition, Chen Ke immediately sent He Zudao to repair the book.In the letter, he respectfully begged to see Mr. Ma.Then he sent He Zudao to take this letter to see Mr. Ma in person.

Chen Ke then sorted out You Gou's lecture notes, thought for a while, and then took out part of his own lecture notes.This is the script of "Tianyan Lun" that Chen Ke will give a lecture soon.In fact, this is not just a theory of evolution, Chen Ke also wrote related content including the solar system and the earth, natural ecology and so on.This is something that all party members should learn, and Chen Ke strives to enrich the knowledge.

Not long after Qi Huishen took Yougou back to the workshop, He Zudao came back.What I brought back was Mr. Ma Xiangbo's personal letter. Chen Ke's letter was very polite, saying that whenever Mr. Ma found it convenient, he would go to visit with You Gou and other friends.

Mr. Ma's reply was equally polite, saying in the letter that he had also heard about Chen Ke's lecture arrangement, there were classes during the day, and we agreed to meet tonight.Chen Ke made a simple arrangement, and ran to the bathroom to take a shower with the shower gel and shampoo.After changing his clothes, Chen Ke appeared in front of everyone fragrantly.

"Sissy!" You Gou gave an attributive jealously.

A group of four set off.

The street scene in Shanghai was very nonsense in 1905, and Chen Ke couldn't stand it no matter what.There were so many things going on recently, Chen Ke looked at all kinds of people, and suddenly had an idea. "Huishen, I'm going to conduct some social surveys after the Huangpu Publishing House is completed."

Qi Huishen and Chen Ke squeezed into a rickshaw, "Social investigation? What are you investigating?"

"Since we want to gather revolutionary comrades, if we don't understand the social situation, what kind of revolution is it? Therefore, social investigation is necessary. Through investigation and analysis of social dynamics, let the comrades participating in the social investigation come to the conclusion that revolution must be made."

"Then why do you want to investigate? You see so many people in Shanghai, where do they come from? Why can't the countryside survive? The purpose of my investigation is the disintegration of the traditional small-scale peasant economy under the impact of the industrial system."

"The disintegration of the small-scale peasant economy?" Qi Huishen heard Chen Ke mention the term "small-scale peasant economy", and he probably understood it. "How did the small-scale peasant economy disintegrate?"

"To put it simply, because rich people, such as your father, bought land in a big way. Hehe, the small peasant economy has disintegrated."

Qi Hui thought about it for a while, "Then Wen Qing means that the industrial system has quickly created a large number of rich people like my father, right?"

"You see the crux. Today, either foreign industrial systems are coming to completely crush China's small-scale peasant economy, or China's own industrial system is crushing the small-scale peasant economy. Anyway, the small-scale peasant economy is destined to go bankrupt."

"In the final analysis, the people's revolution is necessary." Qi Hui nodded deeply.In the past, Qi Huishen would have been excited that he could see the essence of society.But now, he has no emotional fluctuations.Chen Ke has lifted the fog that blinded Qi Huishen's eyes at first, and he can already search for clues and paths by himself, "I will arrange this matter."

The distance between the two places is not far, and the two have arrived before they finished discussing the detailed arrangements.The four stood in front of Mr. Ma's residence and arranged their clothes.You Gou raised his sleeve and sniffed it, then glared at Chen Ke.Without further ado, Chen Ke took out a small bottle of toilet water from his pocket and sprayed it on Yougou twice.Although You Gou might not like this smell, girls always prefer it.She grabbed the toilet water in Chen Ke's hand and stuffed it into her pocket.Everyone knows that Chen Ke has a lot of good things, and as long as possible, everyone will try their best to get one or two small things.Seeing You Gou's cleverness, Qi Hui stomped his feet and beat his chest, regretting that he was too slow.

After checking each other's attires for the last time, You Gou suddenly asked, "Wen Qing, how many watches do you have?" Chen Ke lent his watch to You Gou because of the lecture.When he came out this time, Chen Ke simply put on another piece.

"We'll talk about this matter when we go back." Chen Ke didn't want to get too entangled.If you continue to entangle, I'm afraid the watch will have to be taken away.

Mr. Ma Xiangbo is thin and handsome, with a hale and hearty spirit.He has a beard that is common to literati in the Republic of China, and the color is already close to pure white.After a few simple greetings, Mr. Ma directly cut to the topic. Fudan Public School will start soon, and he hopes that Chen Ke can give a lecture at the school before the school starts.The content is the course of the big lecture held by Chen Ke this time.

Chen Ke quickly handed over the two manuscripts.Mr. Ma didn't pay much attention to the chemistry part, so he browsed it casually and put it down.But on the cover of the second manuscript, He Zudao's handsome handwriting wrote five large characters, "A General Theory of Evolution".

The disastrous defeat in the Sino-Japanese War of Sino-Japanese War once again pushed the Chinese nation to a critical moment.At this time, Yan Fu, a famous person, translated Huxley's "Evolution of Heaven", and it was published in "Guowen Compilation" published in Tianjin in December 1897.The publication of the book produced huge social repercussions that Yan Fu did not expect. Kang Youwei, the leader of the Reformation School, praised the translation after seeing this translation, saying that Yan Fu had "translated "Tian Yan Lun" into Chinese Western learning. The first one also".Since then, Evolution Theory has become a famous book.It was unanimously recommended by scholars at that time.

Ma Xiangbo and Yan Fu had a very good relationship, and Yan Fu gave great support to the establishment of Fudan Public School.He knew that the author of "Evolution" claimed to be "Darwin's Fighting Dog", and Darwin's famous book was "Evolution".Seeing this name, the old man immediately became interested.Turning to the first page, it is not Yan Fu's famous sentence "Natural selection, survival of the fittest." It is Xunzi's words, "Heaven has permanence, it does not exist for Yao, and it does not perish for Jie. Praise from the sky So, which one is used to control the destiny?"

Yan Fu's Theory of Evolution was written in classical Chinese, but Chen Ke's speech on "A Great Evolution Theory" was written in vernacular.The lectures are divided into seven lectures, the first one is the universe and the solar system.The second one is the ocean.From the third chapter to the seventh chapter are Asia, Europe, Africa, America, and Australia.Describe the various biological characteristics and evolution processes in these areas.Interaction and development of various organisms.Yan Fu's Theory of Evolution is a political book, while Chen Ke's is a science book.

Chen Ke has read "Tianyanlun" and "Theory of Evolution".Although the Theory of Evolution was so popular, Chen Ke didn't want to talk about it. His lecture was originally a party class lecture to encourage progressive young people, so Chen Ke felt that the content of "Theory of Evolution" was meaningless.The real drama meat is the third part of Chen Ke's course, which is called "Chinese Cultural Inheritance and the Rise of Materialism".But the manuscript was not yet finished, and Chen Ke didn't dare to take it out to make a fool of himself.

Flipping through a few pages at random, he saw that "An Introduction to Evolution" was a science book, so Mr. Ma also put it down.

There is only the last day of You Gou's class, so Mr. Ma suggested that the class start the day after tomorrow.Chen Ke immediately climbed up. He asked the old gentleman to let him use the auditorium temporarily. Chen Ke originally planned to conduct the courses in Zhou Yuanxiao's workshop.Chen Ke said that when borrowing the place of Fudan Public School, Chen Ke will pay a special fee for the use of the venue.Chen Ke's lectures are open classes, free of charge.Mr. Ma will naturally not accept the money.After negotiating the matter, Chen Ke and the others stood up and said goodbye.

They were in a hurry when they went, so they took rickshaws. Naturally, they didn't need to be so extravagant when they came back, so they simply walked.

"Wen Qing, you really know how to climb along the pole." Qi Hui smiled deeply.

"A gentleman can bully him." Chen Ke also smiled, but his smile turned into a wry smile, "It's a pity that I don't have much time, otherwise I would like to go to this school to become a professor or something."

"Why is there not much time?" Qi Huishen was surprised.

"Young students have ideals and enthusiasm, which is a good place to train revolutionaries. However, there have been many civil riots in Anhui in the past two years. If you delay in Shanghai for a year or two, this opportunity will be missed." After finishing speaking, Chen Ketan Take a breath.

Qi Huishen did not respond, and Chen Ke talked to him about the details of going to Anhui.It also listed several required conditions, but none of these conditions have been met now, and Chen Ke must devote all his energy to the preparation work.And Qi Huishen had already made up his mind to go to Anhui with Chen Ke, so he naturally couldn't volunteer to host the student propaganda work at Fudan University.

Back at the workshop, these classes have long been over.But in the yard, Hua Xiongmao sat and chatted with the two of them.Seeing Chen Ke come back, Hua Xiongmao introduced: "Wen Qing, someone from the poster we put up is here, and it's these two gentlemen."

After hearing what Hua Xiongmao said, those two people got up quickly.The man on the left is in his 40s, he looks like a poor man, and his behavior is pretending.The 20-year-old on the right is wearing a dark blue cloth robe.The fabric looks familiar no matter how it looks, and how it looks like the cloth dyed by myself.Hua Xiongmao noticed Chen Ke's gaze and winked at Chen Ke.Chen Kehua Xiongmao must have noticed it.

Chen Ke invited the two to sit down, and the gentleman in his 40s boasted that he was familiar with 24 histories, which would definitely be of great help.While bragging, Chen Tianhua also came over and sat by the side to listen.Chen Ke asked casually, "Sir, what cases did Zhang Tingwei and Zhang Shizhi in the reign of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty have judged?"

Zhang Shizhi was not a figure in the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.After hearing this, Chen Tianhua knew that Chen Ke's heart was not good, so he almost laughed out loud.The poor man obviously couldn't answer.He hummed and wanted to say something, but he didn't dare to say it, his face turned red.Still can't tell.Chen Ke sent him away politely.

After returning, before Chen Ke could speak, the young man said frankly, "I saw what was written on the poster, and asked me to find the corresponding content in the book?"

"Yes."

"Someone tell me where to find it, right?"

"Yes."

"Sir, don't test me. I haven't read all 24 histories. Let me do what the poster says. I can do it. If you test me, I can't answer anything."

Both Chen Ke and Hua Xiongmao's eyes lit up, and Chen Ke asked, "Then what have you read?"

"Historical Records."

"Can you answer that question just now?"

"One is the startled horse, and the other is the stolen jade ring?"

"Then where did I go wrong?"

"It should be Emperor Wen of Han, not Emperor Wu of Han."

Both Chen Ke and Chen Tianhua smiled.Chen Ke then asked, "Can I start working today?"

"I read on the poster that accommodation and meals are provided here?"

"Correct."

"Can I eat first?"

After hearing this, Hua Xiongmao couldn't hold back anymore and burst out laughing.

"May I ask your surname."

"Miangui's surname is Xie, and his name is Mingxuan."

"Gui Geng."

"24."

"What fame?"

"Scholar."

"Then let's eat."

Even if there is only one more person, as long as it is useful, the overall efficiency will increase rapidly.Not to mention Xie Mingxuan's history book skills, but his ability to communicate with others is what everyone likes very much.There is no obstacle to the communication between the two parties, and it is really not a problem to work faster and slower.With Xie Mingxuan's help, Chen Tianhua was released for a while.Manuscripts are written much faster.

This "Chinese Cultural Inheritance and the Rise of Materialism" is Chen Ke's materialist view of history.Grandpa Mao said, "Without investigation, there is no right to speak."Marx knew almost nothing about China, so what he said about China in his works is a bit ridiculous.The process of slavery, feudalism, and capitalism in Europe is not suitable for China.In the Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties in China, slavery still existed on a large scale, and the feudal system of the enfeoffment model was also the main structure of the political situation.Since Qin Shihuang unified the six countries in 221 B.C., the era of centralization began.The feudal system occasionally appeared in history, but it is no longer the mainstream of China's political system.

If we take this change in the political system as a dividing line, China stepped out of the feudal era more than 2000 years ago.

In 605 A.D., the first year of Daye of the Sui Dynasty, the imperial examination system was implemented, and the existence of hereditary aristocratic groups was continuously weakened.The first real head of state in Europe who was born as a civilian is probably a mustache who came to power in 1933.In Europe, a commoner figured out how to get into the picture, he can wash and sleep.But in China, this is not a fantasy.No matter how unfair the imperial examination system is, this public unified examination is already the fairest of all injustices.The imperial examination system adhered to the bottom line of fairness.

Both the Song and Ming dynasties had an active capitalist system. The only difference from Europe is that the bourgeoisie did not come to power to form a political power.Moreover, the advantage of the capitalist system in Europe was completed only after the combination of the capitalist system and the industrial revolution.

Therefore, Chen Ke believes that Marx's comments on China are not realistic.Back then, those people in China followed suit indiscriminately and copied it mechanically.Chen Ke considers himself a believer in communism, so he believes that these people have historical limitations and are playing the piano indiscriminately based on the attitude of historical materialism.

If having an emperor is considered a feudal system, there are not a few kings in so many countries in Europe.Even after two world wars, Europe has only lost three crowns, Russia, Austria, and Germany.Chen Ke has never understood one thing, a country where there is still a king, a country where the reproductive system of the royal family is more noble than the votes of the people, dare to call itself a democratic country with a shy face.What kind of ridiculous is this.

"Chinese Cultural Inheritance and the Rise of Materialism", the summation of books derived from the historical materialism learned by Chen Ke in various periods, still needs to be combined with Chinese history.Chen Ke is also a lover of Chinese culture. Since he was three years old, he has studied Tang poetry and Song Ci, the Analects of Confucius and "Stories of Idioms".Before becoming familiar with modern Chinese, he was first familiar with classical Chinese.Before he learned to criticize others with the phrase "unbelievably stupid," Chen Ke already knew how Confucius used the word to praise the smooth politician.

Coupled with so many debates on the Internet and reading so many related articles and materials, Chen Ke is very optimistic about the prospects of this "masterpiece".This is not the 21st century, this is 1905, China in a cultural desert. Once this book is published, Chen Ke is very confident in its influence.

You Gou didn't pay much attention to Chen Ke's work, all her attention was occupied by public lectures these days.Giving lectures to hundreds of people is a great challenge and stimulation.You Gou never knew that a condescending perspective would make such a difference.It is physiologically impossible for one person to notice hundreds of people at the same time. You Jiu heard about this from Chen Ke, and she also thinks so.But when standing on the podium, You Gou felt that he could clearly see the reactions of hundreds of people below.In particular, the emotional changes of hundreds of people will vary with the content of You Gou's lectures.

When You Gou talks about knowledge that everyone doesn't understand, some people will pay more attention, others will be confused, and some people will simply give up.And as soon as those experiments start, everyone's attention will be attracted, whether they understand it or not.The lectures these days gave Yougou a feeling of being able to control others.This gave her a great satisfaction.

And the news about Yougou has already been published in the newspapers.Yougou didn't dare to let others read it, so she secretly took the newspaper home and locked it in the room to read it secretly.Every word about her gave You Gou such excitement.Those articles that praised her made You Gou laugh, and when she criticized her articles, You Gou sneered at them.Then resisted the urge to write to that newspaper, and put the article criticizing myself in the corner of the study.

This is the last day of lectures, You Gou tidies up his clothes so they are spotless.He lightly applied makeup and powder, and then took out the toilet water from Chen Ke and sprayed it on his body.Ms. You Gou went to give a lecture in a refreshed outfit.As soon as he walked out of his room, he ran into the second brother head-on, and the two brothers and sisters didn't speak for several days.It's the same today, everyone's nostrils are turned to the sky, and each walks to one side.In the lobby, I saw my mother sitting there.You Gou hurried up to say hello. "Hi mother."

"Going out." Mother asked helplessly.She had several newspapers by her hand, and You Gou could see clearly that two of them were actually "Huangpu Review".

"Yes. Does mother have any orders?"

"When was your school built?"

"This, it will be early next year."

"Hey..." You Gou's mother sighed, "Two days ago, a friend of your father said that a female school in Shanghai was recruiting teachers, and the salary was not low. I heard that you are famous, and they want to ask Ask if you want to go."

"Mom, our school is preparing for construction. There are so many things to do. I definitely won't be able to go."

"The headmaster of that women's school has a son. I heard what they mean, this child will inherit the women's school. But this child can't manage this school. They want to see if your father is willing to marry If you get married, if you get married, the school will let you manage the school."

After hearing this, You Gou felt dizzy. "The lecture time is coming soon. I will talk about this matter when I come back."

Seeing that Yougou was about to sneak away again, her mother waved her hand helplessly, "Your father has been in a foreign school for several years, and he talked about new ideas. This spoils you. Go away. You are 23 years old, I really don't care." You are gone."

This is the seventh day of class and the last day, and there are many people below.The difference from the previous few days is that the people in the front row came to stand in advance, and many people brought their own stools.After You Gou took the stage, everyone's eyes were on You Gou.This kind of intensive line-of-sight bombardment could no longer shake You Gou.She began to speak calmly.In the middle of the speech, there was a sudden commotion at the edge of the crowd, and the people there began to move to other places, like a school of frightened fish.Then exclamations and shouts began to sound.

There are a lot of people attending the class, and such a crowd immediately disrupts the order.Yougou stood tall and could see clearly.Not only were people pushing in, but there were also people pushing out, trying to see what happened.Then, after seeing the people in the center of the commotion, the countercurrent screamed.

The person in the center of the commotion was not tall, and You Gou could only see the woman's hair.The hair is messy and not clean.And the center of this commotion is moving to his side.After a while, You Gou was finally able to see the faces of those women.You Gou completely ignored what they looked like, she only saw the abscess on those faces.A few women who contracted the willow disease were walking towards Yougou at a fast pace.No, it should be said to run over.

"Miss Yougou! Help!" The leading woman suddenly screamed.

"Miss Yougou, save us." The other women cried out.

Such names have already explained the purpose of these women.Qi Huishen was also present, and He Zudao was also present. The contract of the foreign devils who were originally invited to suppress the place has been terminated.They were replaced by those brought by Wu Xingchen, but facing the abscess on their faces, the men also felt frightened. As revolutionary comrades, Qi Huishen and He Zudao were still worried about You Gou. A woman's arm, and then shouted: "Don't go up."

As soon as the man was grabbed, the two women who were blocked respectively hugged Qi Huishen and He Zu and said, "Master! Help!" After finishing speaking, they buried their faces full of abscesses into their chests .Neither of them had been to the Fengyue place, but Qi Huishen had posted flyers everywhere, and the woman's skillful movements made him feel familiar.It's like a brothel woman's style.

Qi Huishen and He Zudao failed to stop them, but were entangled instead.The two big men from Shandong who came to help occupy the field must have had great fists and feet.But they had no experience in beating women in public, and the large sores of the flower and willow disease really frightened them.Moreover, the leading woman rolled up her sleeves, revealing the large sores on her arms.The Shandong hero couldn't figure out what position to capture without hitting abscesses.In such a daze, the women had already rushed past the last line of defense.

You Gou was also frightened and couldn't move. After the three women got on the podium, one from the left and one from the right hugged You Gou's thigh, and the leader grabbed You Gou's arm.

"Miss You! Help!"

You Gou felt dizzy and dizzy, only to hear the woman shout: "Miss You, who in Shanghai knows that you have created a medicine to cure diseases of flowers and willows, but you can't be unkind to the rich!" The sound is very nice.Articulate clearly.The audience in the audience saw this lively drama, and heard that You Gou had created a medicine to cure the disease of flowers and willows, and heard that "the rich are not benevolent".Immediately came the interest.Although they didn't dare to go that far, none of them wanted to leave.Everyone stared at the stage intently, as if the lecture platform had become a stage.
