Crimson Dawn

Chapter 19

Looking at the speech script in front of him, Chen Ke was very dissatisfied.This is a manuscript that has been revised several times, and Chen Ke still wants to overthrow it and start over.Chen Ke knew why he was so dissatisfied, because in this manuscript, Chen Ke still didn't tell the "truth".

When he went to see Xu Xilin, Chen Ke wrote an eloquent masterpiece. In that manuscript, Chen Ke didn't need to say "truth", all he had to do was write something that Xu Xilin could understand. "Seeking truth from facts" does not require you to "tell the truth."Instead, you are required to be able to understand the needs of the other party and know the desires of the other party.To put it bluntly, Xu Xilin is a wealthy revolutionary whose wealth originated from the old system.Xu Xilin hoped to overthrow the Manchu Qing Dynasty, but it did not mean that Xu Xilin would agree to destroy the old system.

Chen Ke's purpose was to gain Xu Xilin's support, not to guide Xu Xilin on the real revolutionary road.So for this purpose, Chen Ke must speak in accordance with Xu Xilin's desired ideal, so that Xu Xilin considers himself a "like-minded" comrade.Of course, "Mr. Daoxue" can say that Chen Ke is a "liar", but such an evaluation is meaningless to Chen Ke himself. Chen Ke adheres to the theory of "seeking truth from facts" to do things.Judging from the results, Chen Ke achieved his goal.

Friends with Qiu Jin, friends with Cai Yuanpei and Tao Chengzhang, including friends with Hua Xiongmao, You Gou, Zhou Yuanxiao, and Qi Huishen.Chen Ke must be like a chameleon, showing everyone what they expect to see.This is also the attitude of seeking truth from facts.

Chen Ke felt very embarrassed by the speech in front of him.Knowledge is power, but power does not equal justice.A kitchen knife is a necessity for cooking delicate food, but it is also a sharp weapon for killing people.From a practical point of view, Chen Ke firmly believes that after learning the knowledge he imparted, someone will inevitably choose a different path from Chen Ke.

As a communist and an inheritor of Chinese culture, Chen Ke knew the story of Shang Yang's changes.Shang Yang first used the emperor's way to impress Qin Xiaogong, but Qin Xiaogong called him "how is he a nonsense person." say".Shang Yang finally impresses Qin Xiaogong with his arrogance, and Qin Xiaogong was so excited that he talked with Shang Yang for several days and nights.

Chen Ke thinks that his knowledge includes "imperial way", "kingly way" and "overbearing". He is not optimistic that these comrades must prefer "overbearing".Chen Ke didn't have much contact with contemporary intellectuals. Even if it was such a short period of contact, most of them believed that as long as China revolutionized, China would become a first-class power in a blink of an eye.They don't know the world, so they don't know the real gap between China and the big powers.If Chen Ke made this huge gap clear, how many of them would devote themselves to a "people's revolution" that would destroy all the old systems instead of a "bourgeois revolution"?

Chen Ke was not sure about this.

"Is this Wen Qing's speech today?" Qi Huishen walked in from outside the room.He picked one up and looked at it, and all he saw was the title.I looked at the other pictures, and they were all titles.

Qi Huishen frowned slightly. Ever since meeting Chen Ke, Qi Huishen had always felt that Chen Ke was different.That was a fundamental difference. As far as the overseas students Qi Huishen had met, they had always complained about the atmosphere, Wanmanqing, and Emperor Ying.They either complain that they have no money, can't afford the factory, or complain that the equipment is too expensive, the equipment is insufficient, or the workers are lazy.This can still be done.Those who have no ambitions yell at God for being short-sighted, and that a talented person like himself is bumping into walls everywhere and has no chance.Complaints against the imperial court and the great powers must follow.In the end, he gnashed his teeth and vowed to make a revolution, to overthrow the Qing Dynasty, and to drive out the foreigners.

Once this same group of "revolutionary parties" had the opportunity to infiltrate the government and join foreign firms, they would immediately become arrogant and prestige.Although they still had to scold them when they were drinking in private, but this time they were cursing how their bosses were assholes and foreigners were assholes, so that they could not get any benefits.This is why Qi Huishen's father, Qi Huishen, is deeply disgusted with his revolution.

At the beginning, Qi Huishen thought that the court and foreigners were indeed bastards, but he felt that this conclusion was correct, but the process of argumentation was outrageously wrong.Those two are bastards, but they are not the kind of bastards those former "revolutionary comrades" said.Qi Huishen has always wanted to find out where this mistake is. No matter how many "revolutionary comrades" he made friends with and asked how many "learned" people he asked, he never got a satisfactory answer.Until I met Chen Ke.

The night after being knocked down by You Gou and dragged into a strange courtyard, Qi Huishen was really scared.But after realizing that it was a misunderstanding, and knowing that Chen Ke was actually a "revolutionary party", Qi Huishen really didn't believe it at first.The people who are busy in the workshop are actually "revolutionaries"?In terms of Qi Huishen's revolutionary experience, the revolutionary party is always idle.Only those who have nothing to do will go to the revolution, but if there are people who are doing serious things, who will go to the revolution?

Qi Huishen has been following the revolution for too long, and has been unable to find the path of revolution for too long. He even asked his father many times to give him money to study in Japan.Knowing his son is like his father, Mr. Qi Si'e is very clear that his son's purpose is not to study abroad, but to go to Japan to find "revolutionary comrades".Therefore, Qi Huishen's source of income was completely cut off.

Chen Ke, who met by chance, was a huge question mark in Qi Huishen's eyes. Qi Huishen had no other way to go, so he could only take a gamble. Maybe this unique "revolutionary party" could Explain Qi Huishen's many questions all the time.

Qi Hui felt that he had made the right bet.Chen Ke's lectures can reveal some problems that Qi Huishen can't understand every time.Let Qi Hui be deeply amazed.Qi Huishen admired Chen Ke's style even more.Not only did Chen Ke hold meetings for other people, but when Chen Ke was exhausted and went to rest, other people would also hold meetings in private.Qi Huishen had never seen Chen Ke who was able to make a fortune from scratch by relying on dozens of taels of silver.Qi Huishen had never seen Chen Ke, who was able to stay up for a few days for a colleague and devoted his life to making medicine.In this workshop, there is no sighing or complaining, only work and laughter.This should be a "revolution", this should be a "revolutionary comrade".

Qi Huishen was very happy about Chen Ke's resumption of lectures.To be honest, Qi Huishen was very dissatisfied with Chen Ke's class in the first few days.Compared with Chen Ke's previous courses where he sent out feelings, in these few days' classes, Chen Ke did not have the ease and ease of the past.The content of the lectures is often contradictory and vague.Although everyone didn't say it directly in class, no matter Qi Huishen, You Gou, Hua Xiongmao, or even Zhou Yuanxiao, they had been very dissatisfied in private conversations for a long time.

After hesitating for a while, Qi Huishen finally spoke, "Wen Qing, I don't know if I should say something or not."

"They're all comrades, what should I say?"

"What Wen Qing said has always given me a feeling of hesitation. I don't know what Wen Qing has to say."

Chen Ke was slightly taken aback, Qi Huishen said such words, it was definitely not by accident.It seems that he had intended this for a long time, and now he couldn't help but say it.And it is impossible for other comrades around me not to have such thoughts.That being the case, Chen Ke simply told the truth.

"I'm afraid of leading everyone astray."

"Going astray?" Qi Huishen was quite puzzled by the subtle words.He tentatively asked: "Is Wen Qing leading us astray, or are we lacking in knowledge and going astray?"

"I would like to compare myself to Xunzi, but Xunzi's two famous students are Han Fei and Li Si."

"What happened to the two of them?" Qi Huishen's level of ancient Chinese history was not high, so he couldn't understand this metaphor.

"Xunzi was the master of Confucianism in the Warring States period, and Han Fei and Li Si were the representatives of Legalism. Han Fei's legalist theory won the approval of Qin Shihuang, and he practiced it. Li Si was Qin Shihuang's prime minister, and he also promoted the legalism. "

"And then? The teacher and the apprentice had a dispute?" Qi Huishen still didn't understand what Chen Ke meant.

"That's not true. Although the two men were taught by Xunzi, they only learned part of the teacher's knowledge, and used it in completely different directions. The Qin Dynasty unified the world, abolished the division of feudalism, and set up prefectures and counties. The books are the same, and the cars are the same. All ages will bathe in the grace of ancestor Long. But Xunzi said long ago that there are major structural contradictions in the Qin system. , There is kingly way, and there is domineering. What I am worried about is that people don’t want to take the difficult road of kingly way, but choose the domineering way of eager for quick success.”

"So Wen Qing was worried about this." Qi Hui said with a deep smile.

Chen Ke learned the words of Huarong Dao in Romance of the Three Kingdoms, "Facing this Huarong Dao, why did the Prime Minister laugh?"

"I laugh at Zhuge Wenqing who doesn't know the art of war." Qi Huishen also matched his lines, "Justice is in the heart. Does Xunzi only have two apprentices?"

"There are many disciples."

"Is Han Fei Li Si the only one famous?"

"indeed so."

"Can Xunzi's proposition be known?"

"After the Qin Dynasty, Chinese politics actually made a lot of use of Xunzi's ideas."

"Since Xunzi's idea is to prevail in the end, why don't Brother Wenqing teach everyone what you know? We don't know what Wenqing wants to teach. How do we know who is right and who is wrong in Wenqing's kingly way and domineering? Wenqing, you are so Hesitating, what we are waiting for is itching. This is what Wen Qing said-do we have to be honest with our comrades?"

Qi Huishen's words were already honest, but in fact, Chen Ke was going to teach everyone everything he knew.

"If you want me to give lectures, that's okay. But since Huishen mentioned the fact that Xunzi has many disciples, it needs to be promoted by Huishen." Chen Ke laughed.

"Wen Qing is really ready to teach you everything?" Qi Huishen immediately became excited.

"If you want to listen to my lectures, it is not so easy."

"Brother Wenqing, what are your orders?" Qi Huishen sat down quickly and picked up his pen.

"You gather friends who you think can attend classes, and ask Yougou to gather friends among her friends who think they can attend classes. In addition, we have to put up posters, saying that our school is about to open, and the teacher wants to try Speak. Parents who want their children to come to our school are welcome to bring their children to attend classes. And, as advertised, we also run workers’ evening schools, and any fellow workers who are willing to come to attend classes are welcome.”

"Wen Qing wants to tell them about revolution?" Qi Huishen felt that Chen Ke had become very strange.

"Tell them about revolution. That's public agitation for rebellion. I'm not that stupid. I'll teach some basic lessons, lessons on how to understand the world."

"Then what does this have to do with the revolution?" Qi Hui couldn't understand.

"How did I become a revolutionist? If I can't have a correct view of the world, I can't be a revolutionist. A revolutionist must have some understanding of the basic common sense of the world. What I said in the head, this class You have to listen. That's the basis of everything."

Although Qi Huishen didn't quite understand, he still nodded.

"By the way, Huishen, how do you speak my Shanghai dialect now, can everyone understand?" Chen Ke asked.

"I think it should be ok. In fact, Wenqing's Mandarin is also pretty good."

"Since we are going to put up posters, many of the people who come to listen to the class are locals. I speak official language, but they may not understand it. Do as the Romans do."

These words sound like the Chen Ke that Qi Hui is deeply familiar with, with meticulous thinking and thoughtful consideration of issues as much as possible.

"Hui Shen, I'm making a schedule now. Different classes have different lecture times. Let's discuss it together later."

"Okay, I'll go and confirm the leaflet first."

There are people above who are different. A few days ago, Qi Huishen took the documents from the British, and Qi Huishen had no problem with the local government in Shanghai.Although the document requires the Shanghai government to approve the land and give money.However, Qi Huishen was very self-aware and didn't mention this matter. The documents for the school and the hospital were all done very quickly.Shanghai Renxin Medical College officially opened on paper.

The affiliated hospital was the first to open. These days, Wu Xingchen sells the medicine very well.In ten days, more than 60 people were treated.The doctor Wang Qinian brought by Yougou put a person to death.Fortunately, a contract was signed before the treatment, and the patient was single, and Tiandi would help the public, so the matter did not become a big deal.

Chen Ke is very grateful to Wu Xingchen at this time, Wu Xingchen has already let go, the medicine is too strong, it is estimated that one out of ten people will die.Every patient is told this fact repeatedly before receiving treatment.So it was finally able to deal with it peacefully.

These days, the willow disease is an incurable disease, and it is thankful that there are medicines to treat it.Not to mention, at least nine out of ten people can survive.Compared with the previous traditional treatment methods, this probability can be said to be an improvement across the ages.

Qi Huishen had never printed advertisements so openly before, but the content changed from revolutionary propaganda to advertisements.I just bought a manual screen printing machine and it is very easy to use.Qi Huishen was working tirelessly to push the handle, when suddenly there was a commotion outside.I poked my head out and saw a few foreign devils shouting at the door.

The hospital is just an ordinary yard with two floors.A curtain with a red cross was hung on the door.Some disinfectant was sprinkled in the yard. Wang Qinian had been practicing medicine outside these days, and there was no one in the hospital.In addition to the foreign devil, there is also an interpreter next to the foreign devil.Seeing Qi Hui come out, he asked arrogantly: "Are you a doctor?"

"The doctor is not here." Qi Hui replied coldly.A closer look at the foreign devils showed that they were all infected with the willow disease.All of them had abscesses on their faces and around their mouths, which looked quite disgusting.

"You guys will come back the day after tomorrow. There will be no doctor for consultation today or tomorrow." Qi Huishen said unceremoniously.

The translation will be on par with Huishen without showing any weakness, and the words already have the meaning of pushing people away.He hurriedly turned around and said a few words to the foreign devil, which was beyond Qi Huishen's expectation. The foreign devil yelled at the translator, and then smiled kindly at Qi Huishen.Although the smile is very polite, but with those big sores, it is even more disgusting.Qi Huishen returned to the school to graduate at any rate, and did not leave behind his English.Those foreign devils were very dissatisfied with the attitude of the translator.But Qi Hui was too lazy to talk to the foreign devils, and he also pretended not to understand what the foreign devils said.

After the translator was yelled at, his arrogance immediately stopped.He also smirked and said, "What's the name of this gentleman?"

Qi Huishen was still not polite enough, "My name is Qi Huishen, and I'm the dean of the medical school. I'm not a doctor, and I don't know how to treat diseases."

"Mr. Na Qi, when will the doctor come back?" the interpreter still asked with a smirk.

Anyway, this hospital also bears the title of British, so Qi Huishen is also embarrassed to reject foreign devils.He took out his pocket watch and looked at it, it was 11:40.Wang Qinian said he would come to pick up the medicine at noon.Now that I think about it, I should come back.Qi Huishen replied: "You wait a moment, the doctor will probably come back."

The hospital doesn't have an outpatient room at all. Although Chen Ke has this item in the construction regulations, Chen Ke is too busy to take care of it just because he and Yougou are treating the medicine.He randomly found a ward and let a few people in.Qi Hui listened deeply to Chen Ke's talk about the transmission route of the willow disease, and he felt sick, so he walked out of the ward by himself.At this moment, Wang Qinian had already returned.Qi Huishen explained the matter clearly to Wang Qinian in a relaxed manner, and quickly hid in the mimeograph room to continue printing his own leaflets.

The printing didn't take long, and there was already a quarrel from the ward.This is not a quarrel, the translator almost screamed in the room.A few foreign devils were also talking, but not loudly.Qi Hui sighed deeply, he couldn't finish dealing with these messes.He had to go over and fix it.Just as Qi Hui thought deeply, Wang Qinian told the foreign devils that they must sign a liability waiver contract.This drug has the potential to cause death in the patient.When the foreign devil said nothing, the interpreter started howling.

Wang Qinian has asked people to sign this kind of contract quite a few times these days, and he told the translator relentlessly that he must either sign a contract for medical treatment or leave.It’s not enough to pretend to be deaf and dumb anymore, Qi Huishen asked in English: “Guys, our policy is to either sign a contract or leave. There is no other choice. Especially you foreigners, we can’t afford to mess with you except for things.” .”

Neither the foreign devil nor the translator thought that Qi Huishen, who was wearing a dark blue jacket with sleeves rolled up and had a lot of ink on his hands, could speak fluent English.

After the foreign devils inquired about the efficacy of the medicine, Qi Huishen told them that the medicine was very effective and the death rate was close to one in ten.After thinking about it, the foreign devils discussed it again.Finally agree.Qi Huishen asked Wang Qinian to follow him to the mimeograph room, took out the printed receipts, and prescribed a price of ten pounds for one person.

"This price..." Wang Qinian hesitated to speak.

"Doctor Wang thinks the price is high?" Qi Hui asked deeply.

"I think it's low." Wang Qinian replied honestly.

"It's only the price for two injections, and it's not a full course of treatment. I think it's reasonable." Qi Huishen said lightly.

"That's reasonable." Wang Qinian replied.

Qi Hui stared deeply at Wang Qinian for a few times, only to see that Wang Qinian didn't seem to care much when talking about money.He was quite curious.But what we need to pay attention to now is the foreign devils outside, and we can only talk about the investigation later.

This price is really expensive, and Qi Huishen doesn't really believe that foreign devils can afford this price.The reason why this price was set was firstly because it was the price that Chen Ke strongly advocated at the meeting.Secondly, Qi Huishen didn't really want to treat foreign devils.If they are scared off by the price, it's a wonderful thing.

As expected, as Qi Huishen thought, after reading the medicine list written in English, the five foreign devils had a look of embarrassment on their faces, and they began to get together and mutter for a while.

Get the hell out, Qi Hui thought deeply.

The discussion finally came to a conclusion, and one of the most ill foreign devils stepped forward, "I'll sign the contract first."

Although Qi Hui was deeply disappointed, he had no reason to drive the patient out.Watching the foreign devils sign the waiver contract and pay another ten pounds.Qi Huishen greeted Wang Qinian to start treating foreign devils.
