Chapter 502: Double Star (4)

November 1894. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoWei Kun was not promoted to political commissar of the East African Administrative Region, but was transferred back to Jiangsu Province to serve as the deputy mayor of Nanjing as a cadre at the level of a department-level cadre in the Republic of China.

Wang Mingshan was received by Wei Kun in Nanzhan City, although he claimed to be working in Cyprus, Wang Mingshan basically worked in Nanzhan City. Wang Mingshan looked Wei Kun up and down, he hadn't seen him for a few months, and this kid had become introverted. There are fewer and fewer things that are deliberately wanted to be expressed in behavior, and things that come from the essence of the heart are gradually washed out.

"Go back and help me say hello to your father and ask him to take care of himself." Wang Mingshan just said simply.

"I'm leaving East Africa. At first, I thought I was going to make a big splash here. Wei Kun smiled bitterly.

Wang Mingshan patted Wei Kun on the shoulder, "You have already shown your strength in East Africa." Industry, agriculture, animal husbandry, you have created the basis for many jobs. Wei Kun, the basis of seeking truth from facts is to recognize the actual conditions. Compared to when you went to East Africa, the foundation in East Africa is much better now. For example, in another three years, the first votes of black elementary school students appeared. In another six years, some of these elementary school students will graduate from junior high school. In another nine years, there may be black high school students. For someone in my grade, nine years have passed in the blink of an eye. ”

Listening to Wang Mingshan talk about the school, Wei Kun's face became very ugly. He shook his head vigorously, just remembering the actions that people who brought pain often did.

Wang Mingshan replied quietly: "Get ready, go back to China with your head held high!" ”

It was not only Wei Kun who returned to China, but also a group of young people who had spent enough years in East Africa to return to Asia. The cruise ship full of people left the dock, Wang Mingshan looked back at the sultan's successor uncle beside him, and said sincerely, "Thank you!" ”

The successor uncle smiled happily, "I can help you, and I can help the governor do something." I feel happy too. I hope the governor doesn't ask for it so much, and finally blames me for not teaching his children well. ”

Wang Mingshan smiled, and then asked bluntly, "What do you think of Wei Kun?" ”

"After all, it's the child of the Governor's family. Other people's children make low-level mistakes, and he also makes medium-level mistakes. After crossing this hurdle, at least this child will not be a person who does nothing. Uncle Succession replied confidently.

Wang Mingshan nodded, and did not continue to talk about Wei Kun's matter, "What do you say is the difference between us and these young people." I sometimes think that these young people are better than us in everything, but the biggest problem with these children is that they love to lose their chains. When it comes to critical moments, I can't let it go. In fact, as long as they take such a step forward, they will have a wide range of skies. ”

The successor uncle did not answer immediately, he took out his pipe and lit a bucket for himself, took a comfortable puff, he looked at the small cruise ship at sea, and replied slowly: "The master went hunting, and then scolded the hound." You eat more meat every day than you hunt, and the living conditions are so good. Why can't even a dead rabbit that lives in a hole and eats weeds escape. After hearing this, the hound replied aggrievedly, "The rabbit is running for life, and I am running for the mouth." Can this be the same? ”

"Humph! Hum Hum Hum! Wang Mingshan raised his left hand, rubbed the beard on his upper lip with the tiger's mouth, and laughed tightly. This joke is really thorough, what tests Wang Mingshan's gang is life and death, and what tests Wei Kun's children is fame and fortune. The battlefield has eliminated the incompetent at an unprecedented rate, and if you want to stand out in a peaceful world, you need absolute strength. Wei Kun's previous reaction was actually quite easy to understand. It's that Wang Mingshan himself didn't pay much attention to the difference in the times.

Spitting fragrant smoke, the successor uncle sighed: "That kid finally understands that he is not the center of the world, and can be regarded as able to put himself in the right position. The case of the attack on the elementary school student finally taught him a lesson. ”

"Isn't it diplomacy with Ethiopia?" Wang Mingshan was a little surprised. Wei Kun has encountered several things in the past few months, and the more important one is the diplomatic problem with Ethiopia. The country was shaken by a massive smallpox attack. Through vaccine cooperation, Weikun has brought Ethiopia and East Africa closer together. Ethiopia has officially sent an envoy to Beijing to meet with Weser to express its gratitude.

"That kid didn't get to the point. He also felt that he had overreacted at the time. The successor uncle loaded himself with a new bucket of tobacco.

"Didn't there be many deaths in the attack on that elementary school student? Wang Mingshan asked a little puzzled. ”

"Not many people died. But the subsequent disposition was to kill the murderers of several tribes. What shook the kid was that he himself didn't understand what black people were thinking. He's using his ideas to set the ideas of black people. The boy had thought he could think of going with the blacks. The successor uncle replied slowly, smoking a delicately made pimple pipe.

Wang Mingshan didn't know how to comment for a while. A large proportion of the founders of the Republic of China were born in the Taiping Rebellion that broke out in Guangxi, and many of the founding heroes were from Guangxi. After the liberation, the provincial governments all killed people in the course of land reform and social transformation, and the number of people killed in Guangxi at this stage was the highest in the whole country. The place where the revolution originated is still like this, and Wang Mingshan doesn't know what to say about Wei Kun if he expects blacks to have the same idea as people from the emperor's family.

"Lao Wang. Don't laugh at these kids, I really see a good future in them. "As the successor uncle spoke, the fine Mozambican tobacco in the pipe gave off a sweet and mellow aroma.

"Our own experience has taught us that the world is cruel and that we must carve out our own world with iron and blood. These children had heard what we had heard, but they were dealing with a peaceful and peaceful country. Although there are contradictions, they are only contradictions among the people. They think the world should be like that. But after decades of living such a peaceful life, our previous hard work is worth it. ”

Uncle Succession's tone was soothing, and Wang Mingshan didn't know what to say for a while. The Taiping Rebellion sparked a war that swept through China, and hundreds of millions of people died in the intervening decade between Wei Ze leading the Guangfu Army to establish the People's Dynasty. After cutting out the first few years when there were not many deaths, an average of more than 7 million people died in a year, and 20,000 people died a day. People of this age have all experienced bloody storms, or at least seen bloody storms. The blood of the war dead can stain an entire river red, and the corpses of the war dead can clog the river. Kill, kill, kill. It was a time when human life was in vain.

While the war in China itself was extinguished, it continued to burn in other regions. To Spain, to the Netherlands, to England, to France. Before the battle for supremacy at sea ended, the Sino-American war broke out in North America. The war between China and the United States finally stopped more than two years ago, and the Americans are expanding in the Caribbean and South America, and the war is still raging. Hearing the exclamation about the advent of the era of peace, Wang Mingshan really felt very uncomfortable, and he didn't accept it immediately.

Wei Kun didn't have so many war associations in his mind, and he leaned against the top fence of the cruise ship and looked in the direction of the horizon. In fact, he was completely blind. Wang Mingshan mentioned the attack on the students, and the picture of Wei Kun buried in his heart resurfaced. More than a dozen children fell in a pool of blood like broken sacks, and when the murderer was caught, they were stunned. The reason for their astonishment is that they think that the government has nothing to do with these children, so why should they stand up and embarrass these tribes?

The fists were clenched, and the flesh of the nails was painful, and this pain relieved the pain in Wei Kun's heart. Wei Kun didn't like the profession of a soldier, otherwise he would have gone to apply for a military school. When he arrived in East Africa, Wei Kun thought that he could scare these black brothers into not daring to touch the order by relying on armed force. But Wei Kun was obviously wrong, in the understanding of the Black Brothers, the contradictions and conflicts of the tribe were higher than anything else. This is a sacred rule in East Africa. And Wei Kun didn't expect that in the eyes of the Black Brothers, the power of the three counties of Sudan was 'a big tribe near Khartoum'. After asking such a result in his confession, Wei Kun felt that his world had almost collapsed. He had thought that after such a long existence in East Africa, the local black brothers finally understood that the government was a huge quasi-state organization. And it turns out that Wei Kun's judgment of the world is very wrong.

After repeatedly confirming that this idea was the general opinion of the Black Brothers, Wei Kun conducted a social survey of various cities in a panic. Then he despaired to find that most of the black brothers in East Africa had similar views. In the major cities of various places, the Black Brothers considered the Min Dynasty to be a large local tribe. What distinguishes this large tribe from other tribes is that they are very powerful and fierce to outsiders. Outsiders who do not agree with this large tribe will be treated cruelly.

Part of the questionnaire is about why the Black Brothers opted in. Most of the findings say that living here is easier than being in the wilderness. In order to be able to eat enough, everyone chose to stay.

The result of all that was hard work was to make the scattered tribes realize that a powerful tribe had emerged. The scattered tribes thought it was natural to kill people from other rival tribes, and if they couldn't kill adults, they would kill children. Enraged, Wei Kun made the decision to kill the perpetrators of the murderous tribe. When these people were executed, the surrounding tribes were summoned to participate in the public trial. During the public trial, it was announced that anyone who commits suicide privately in the future will have to pay for his life. This is the 'custom of the new powerful tribes'.

After experiencing this, Wei Kun's whole person was greatly impacted. He still thought the old guys were annoying, and always said things that seemed to see through the hearts of young people. Now Wei Kun has to admit that he is too naΓ―ve, and his view of the world is hugely flawed. Even if it is to make the election rules yourself, so that all tribes come to the council. But none of this has changed the tribes' perceptions, and the East African tribes still see the world with their own worldview.

While extremely disgusted with the tribe's stubborn worldview, Wei Kun finally began to reflect on whether he also had an unbreakable wrong worldview. With such reflection, Wei Kun finally realized that he had actually taken the signs of the previous action that haunted him.

When the successor uncle was talking to Wei Kun about work, he couldn't help but show off his adult knowledge. Uncle thinks that Wei Kun's problem is mainly that he doesn't know what he is here for. Treating Uncle Hei, Wei Kun has a condescending savior mentality in his heart. Now it turns out that the Black Uncles are actually quite realistic. What they fancy is specific life changes, and all the conveniences and new information are strung together by the black uncles with the old worldview. For example, they hadn't had a chance to attack the little dolls of rival tribes before.

Wei Kun admitted the judgment of the successor uncle, and then the successor uncle said a new problem. That is, whether Wei Kun's condescending mentality is accidental or normal. When this question was first raised, Wei Kun found that he had the urge to shut up his successor uncle forever. But with repeated reflections, Wei Kun finally admitted that he was actually a very arrogant person. As Wei Ze's son, Wei Kun easily developed the mentality of looking down on others.

Letting go of the clenched hands, Wei Kun felt that his heart was finally not so uncomfortable. When memories of the past that are hard to forget are finally replaced by reflections on oneself, the pain begins to subside a lot. After a few months, Wei Kun realized that he was a mortal as Wang Mingshan said. The criterion by which mortals judge things is the ultimate profit, whether it is fame or profit. In general, it is a pure result. And this seemingly unchanging result is actually something that is constantly changing, and fame and fortune will always change with the change of vision and mentality.

If the number of dead people is used as the profit criterion, Wei Kun can add the teachers and other inputs that have been invested in the children before, and the result is a big loss. If you take into account the investment of the crusading tribe to capture the murderer, the result is that the loss is far greater than imagined.

But from another point of view, this crusade shocked the tribe and gave the tribe an idea of the strength of the East African administrative region. All this has contributed to the degree of internal unity of the East African administrative region, and from this point of view, it is a bit of a "blessing to know if the horse is lost". If Wei Kun killed the tribe indiscriminately, it would definitely be impossible for the tribe to have such a clear judgment.

Various perspectives on judging interests bring different choices. But judging from the down-to-earth geniuses with a clear conscience that Wang Mingshan said, these are all disgusting reasons like a bunch of shit.

Wei Kun's judgment of the matter was wrong from the beginning, if Wei Kunken had investigated the tribe's understanding of the East African administrative region from the beginning. Then Wei Kun will definitely not make the decisions that followed. He will certainly work in a more down-to-earth manner, from uniting the masses to having no voice without investigation. The Liberation Party has long had a full set of explanations and routines for these. If Wei Kun had faced the reality of the East African Administrative Region in a down-to-earth manner from the beginning, all his choices would have been completely different.

Sighing, Wei Kun leaned his back against the railing. The successor uncle was a very interesting person, and Wei Kun was probably sure that this uncle was the 'tutor' sent by Wang Mingshan to teach Wei Kun. Seeing Wei Kun's pain, especially the chaos. The uncle asked Wei Kun, "If you don't care about success or failure, do you think you did your best at that time?" ”

At that time, Wei Kun shook his head vigorously, eager to shake his head down, "That's useless!" That's useless! ”

"No, no, no! I'm asking, if you don't care about success or failure. You have to have this concept first. "Uncle did his best to enlighten him.

In the face of his uncle's firmness, and in the face of having to focus on the examination of his past failures, Wei Kun felt extremely painful, and in such a desperate situation, he finally said out loud: "...... I can't! My mind is full of regrets about my previous choices. Sorry to talk about it here today. We'll talk about the rest later. ”

It wasn't until half a month later that Wei Kun dared to really face this failure. This is still a few words from the uncle, "You are afraid of a ball." At most, someone dragged out and chopped off the skull to pay for the mistake. At this time, you have to come out with that single-minded energy! ”

It was precisely because he knew that he would not be dragged out at all and cut off his brain, that Wei Kun did not dare to face this failure. It wasn't until he repeatedly cheered himself up that he finally dared to re-examine the matter. With the help of his uncle, Wei Kun realized that he really tried his best at that time. Although the final defeat was so cruel, Wei Kun at that time really tried his best, even conscientious.

"With a clear conscience, would you do such a wrong thing?" Wei Kun's voice was almost moaning.

"When did a clear conscience equate with absolute correctness?" The uncle asked slowly, smoking his pipe.

"But aren't geniuses all with a clear conscience?" There was a tremor in Wei Kun's voice.

"You put a hat on geniuses who never make mistakes, and geniuses never make mistakes? Kong Lao Er said that saints are no different. The saint just doesn't make the same mistake twice. Who can really do this throughout the ages? If it's by your standards, it's not a genius, it's a god. It has to be the kind of creator god who never makes mistakes. The uncle smoked his pipe and commented slowly.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Did I really do my best? Wei Kun was still extremely skeptical.

The uncle asked rhetorically, "Did you have a clear and better way at that time?" With this method in place, do you abandon it because of your own laziness or other reasons and use the inferior option that is easier to complete? ”

Wei Kun reflected for a long time, and replied in a very unconfident tone: "I think I used what I think is the best choice. Now I know that's not right. ”

"You now have to look at things from the perspective of success or failure. What you just said is starting to care about success or failure again. "Uncle was very keen and clear about the problem.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ I was in the shortest time I could take and used what I thought was the best decision. Wei Kun replied.

"Then you deliberately have a clear conscience." The uncle replied.

After listening to the uncle's confirmation, Wei Kun thought silently for a long time, and said with a gray expression as if he could wring water down, "Was I so incompetent at that time......
