Chen Jingyun has a headache when he talks about this.

Although it is not like the Qing court now, the common people regard foreigners as monsters. However, many ordinary people still have a very bad opinion of foreigners. I think that even if they weren't youkai, what they did wouldn't be a good thing.

In particular, the children went to the school for a while, and when they came back, it became strange, which made these workers even more uneasy, so they simply left the children at home and did not let them go to school.

In this way, the children are also noisy at home.

Chen Jingyun inevitably had some thoughts of 'admiring foreign countries', and he didn't dare to drive people away, so he could only hold on. Now that he saw Ruan Huizhen coming, he suddenly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

After Ruan Huizhen understood the situation, she asked, "How is this foreigner, has he done anything bad in the factory?" ”

"No, I've been in contact with this Mr. Henry. He was a missionary. Chen Jingyun said this, his face was still a little uncomfortable, and he nodded his head, "I think there is something wrong with him here." "It's hard to say that there is something wrong with the head.

"What's wrong?"

He told the children that the foreigners in the concession were invaders, they were committing crimes, and God would punish them. He also said that he came to atone for sins in the place of God, for his country and his countrymen. ”

“……”

Chen Jingyun saw that Ruan Huizhen didn't speak, and whispered, "Mr. Ruan, how do you say this person should be arranged, he is here, I always feel unsteady in my heart." Although this is the realm of our Chinese people, what if the children are handed over by him everywhere, what if those foreigners come to the door? The foreigners in Shanghai are not the same as the foreigners in the provincial capital. "The foreigners in the concession have arrogant capital in front of the government.

Ruan Huizhen said, "Don't worry about it yet, I'll go and meet this Mr. Henry later." ”

"He likes to be called a priest." Chen Jingyun said weakly. He was tired at the mention of this Mr. Henry now.

Ruan Huizhen smiled when she saw him like this, "Okay, you go and get busy first, and I'll go to the school to find him myself." ”

As early as when the factory was built, Ruan Huizhen asked Chen Jingyun to build two houses and build a school, so that the workers' children could go to the school first, which did not cost much, but could make the workers feel at ease.

The school is built next to the dormitory, which is also in the factory area.

Before she reached the door of the school, Ruan Huizhen heard a really lame Chinese, "Mud...... To study well, you can just adapt □□. ”

In a sentence, only a few words are correctly pronounced. Thanks to the children's relish, they look quite relished.

However, there were only a few students in the classroom, and Mr. Henry, a foreigner, was still speaking on the podium, accompanied by a burst of exaggerated movements, which made him a little funny. But because of this, the children are very energetic.

It's no wonder that when I saw some children looking at this side just now, they all wanted to come back to class.

Ruan Huizhen smiled, didn't disturb their class, and only watched secretly from the window.

This Mr. Henry looked young, and seemed to be in his twenties. With short blond hair, dark blue eyes, and deep facial features, he is a handsome foreign guy at the level of future aesthetics.

After Ruan Huizhen came to the Republic of China, although he hated foreigners at this time. But it's not that I hate everyone. She knows that nothing can be generalized. Some foreigners are indeed invaders, but there are also some people who yearn for peace, and even when their country comes to invade China, they also provide support for China and jointly stop the invasion. Just like during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, there were even many Japanese doctors in the Chinese army.

For such people, Ruan Huizhen also has a good impression of them.

As soon as she heard something about Henry that Chen Jingyun said, she guessed that Henry might belong to such a person. Although he was born in the country of the invaders, he longed for peace.

Of course, it may also have something to do with his religious beliefs. People of faith tend to be more fraternal.

When the bell rang for the end of class, the children ran to the yard to play.

Henry sighed and walked outside with his book. Don't look at how cheerful he was just now, in fact, he's in a terrible mood right now.

His students didn't even come to class. The parents were against their children coming to his class. Did he do something wrong? Henry really couldn't figure it out.

They still don't know me very well. Henry thought to himself. "Maybe I'll go talk to the parents and let them know about me, and they'll let the kids come back."

Although his muttering voice was very small, Ruan Huizhen heard it clearly, and said in his heart that if you go, it is estimated that you will be beaten out on the spot.

She stepped forward and stopped Henry, "Father Henry. ”

Hearing the title of priest, Henry was stunned, and looked at the girl who was blocking him in front of him with beautiful eyes, "Hey, mud howl." ”

Ruan Huizhen smiled, "Hello, Father Henry, it's a pleasure to meet you. ”

She spoke in English.

Hearing Ruan Huizhen's fluent English, Henry was suddenly pleasantly surprised and replied in English, "Your English is so good, I haven't met a Chinese person with such good English for a long time." ”

Ruan Huizhen said, "Father Henry, I think we can find a place to sit and talk,"

"Absolutely. I'd love to. Henry said happily.

Ruan Huizhen found an empty office and asked Chen Jingyun to get drinks and snacks to eat.

Chen Jingyun saw Henry here, hurriedly took the things, and immediately retreated. He was annoyed when he saw this foreigner now.

Henry hadn't eaten well for a long time, and as a missionary, he didn't have a stable income, and when he was in China, he could eat and live in the church immediately, and even get a sum of money. But after coming to China, he has been in abject poverty. Although his compatriots were doing quite well here, he did not want to ask for help from his compatriots who had gone against God's will. This would mislead God into his piety.

Henry ate a few pieces of dim sum before looking at Ruan Huizhen with some embarrassment, "Your things are so delicious." ”

"We have a lot of land in China, and the variety of food and drink is even more diverse, so you can try it if you have the opportunity."

"I've studied your history, and it's great." Henry's eyes sparkled and he replied, and suddenly, his face was a little lost, "It's a pity that now you are fighting everywhere, your own people are fighting your own people, and you are also beaten by others, and many things are destroyed." ”

After walking through half of China, Henry's mood felt very heavy.

He loves all things that are long. Among them, the history of China is the most curious. It's a pity that this legendary beauty has begun to fall apart.

Henry's words made Ruan Huizhen sound like she was in a somewhat complicated mood. Even foreigners can see the status quo in China, but those warlords only see their own interests and kill each other.

But there is nothing she can do about these things, so she can only leave them behind.

"Father Henry, I know you're from England, and I've heard that you're here to help us."

"Of course." Henry said sincerely.

Ruan Huizhen smiled, "You are a good man, a great missionary. I'm sure you'll have more believers in the future. ”

"That's what I thought too." Henry was even happier that these children would later be the most devout believers in God. ”

"But now they need your God's help."

"You know, our country is going through war, and these people have come here from all over the world to take refuge. I opened the factory and contained them. But as you know, it takes a lot of money. ”

"But I don't have any money." Henry was in a hurry. "God doesn't have any money."

Ruan Huizhen was a little speechless about his brain circuit, but he still said patiently, "I know you don't have any money, but I need you, God's missionary, to help me." You think you are a merciful priest, and I hope you will do me a favor and help me make money. This will allow me to open more factories and house more victims. It will also allow more children to read in your classroom. ”

Hearing these beautiful plans, Henry's blue eyes lit up. "Really?"

"Yes, I promise you."

"But what can I help you?"

Ruan Huizhen smiled, "You are an Englishman, you have traveled to many countries, and you know them better. I need you to help me with my business, I want to sell my goods abroad, can you help me? ”

It has always been Ruan Huizhen's wish to do business abroad. The cost in China is very low, and the price of selling in China is not much higher. But if you can sell it abroad, the profit will be very high. And now the environment abroad is more suitable for doing business than at home. The United States, in particular, has not been affected by the war, and if she can do business in this country, she will be able to make a lot of money. However, the foreigners she knew before couldn't be trusted, so she didn't think about cooperating with those foreigners. Now that she saw Henry, she wanted to give it a try.

Henry was dumbfounded, obviously not expecting that Ruan Huizhen would let him do business as a missionary. It's a waste of talent. He was a devout preacher, not a Jewish businessman.

However, what Ruan Huizhen said made him unable to refuse. These poor children need His God. As God's messenger, he must help his followers.

So he said, "Maybe you need a Jew." You know, Jews are the best at making money. They're calculating, they're very smart. I have a Jewish friend, of course, who has always considered himself British, but I know that he is Jewish, and maybe I can introduce you to you and let him help you make money. ”

This is the best thing Henry can come up with. He didn't know how to do business, but he could introduce Jewish friends.

Ruan Huizhen was also a little surprised, she didn't expect that she just wanted to try to get this priest to change careers, and this priest would actually introduce her to a Jewish businessman.

"Will this Jewish friend of yours help us, and he is like you......," she said, "Somewhat uneasy," she said. Is it kind? ”

"No, no." Henry shook his head, "Jews only have money in their hearts, and as long as they have money, they are willing to sell anything." If you were to spend money to buy my friendship with him, I am sure he would not hesitate to betray it. ”

"I don't need your friendship, I just want him to partner with me in business."

"Then you can rest assured that Jews are the best partners for business. Although they are very calculating, as long as there is money to be made, they will keep their promises. "Henry spared no effort to sell his own Jewish friends. I was afraid that Ruan Huizhen would force him to change careers.

Hearing Henry say this, Nguyen Huizhen secretly thought about it and decided to see how the Jewish businessman was.

Anyway, it was also by chance that she met Henry today, and whether she succeeded or not did not conflict with her big plan.

"Father, I need your friend."

Hearing Ruan Huizhen's words, Henry finally breathed a sigh of relief, "I'll write to him right away." 166 Reading Network
