Chapter 512: Twin Stars (14)
"Qi Rui, hurry up and eat. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info The oil was hot, and I had a few blisters when I was stir-frying. Bu Ran shouted in that half-grown girl's fussy tone.
This shouting full of life interrupted Qi Rui's train of thought, and he stood up a little helplessly, Qi Rui raised the back of his hand, which was about to turn eighteen years old, and looked at it.
"Yes! Right! Bu Ran took advantage of the situation and continued in an unforgiving and aggrieved tone. But after saying that, she laughed out loud to herself, "Haha." You have to eat more. ”
Qi Rui has no illusions about the craftsmanship of this 'fiancée'. For military personnel, the purpose of eating is to eliminate hunger and replenish nutrition. There are not no gourmets among the military, but the proportion of gourmets is much lower than in other industries. So when the two sat down to eat together, Qi Rui didn't comment on these dishes at all. Qi Rui's father Wei Ze only slightly showed a preference for sweets, while Qi Rui's two 'mothers' include Nanjing and Hangzhou, and Qin Huai's dishes and Jiangsu and Zhejiang dishes are notoriously exquisite. So Qi Rui, who has been accustomed to exquisite dishes since he was a child, really can't evaluate his fiancée's craftsmanship. Straightforward words are inevitably unkind, and flattery has never been Qi Rui's personality. As a pampered guy with high hopes, Qi Rui can treat people equally, but he really doesn't have the habit of lowering his head.
Bu Ran is also pampered, but pampered is pampered, her mother was born in the scope of the 'untouchability law', but she was able to marry a founding major general. So when Bu Ran eats, he is very elegant, and the quiet demeanor shaped by strict education is very likable.
Neither of them had too much to eat, and there were dishes left, but there were no staple foods. I put the leftovers in the refrigerator and prepared for the next hot meal, and washed the dishes and chopsticks smoothly. Qi Rui sat back on the sofa, Bu Ran also jumped on the sofa, leaned on one end, and put his foot on Qi Rui's lap, and then said, "I will graduate from college next year." ”
"Oh? You didn't finish your junior year. Where are you going to work after graduation? Qi Rui asked.
Bu Ran saw that Qi Rui didn't understand what he meant correctly, and said angrily: "I'm going to be eighteen years old soon!" ”
"Oh." Qi Rui replied casually, and he actually knew what Bu Ran meant in his heart. In the Republic of China, some children who went to school early went to elementary school at the age of four and a half, while Buran went to elementary school at the age of four, junior high school at the age of nine, and went to university before the fifteenth birthday. Buran was nineteen years old when he graduated, but he was not nineteen when he graduated, and he was only eighteen years old. It's something she's proud of.
Seeing Qi Rui pretending to be stupid and stunned, he stepped back from the foot on Qi Rui's lap and said seriously: "Let's get married." ”
The marriage law of the Republic of China stipulated that men were twenty years old and women were eighteen years old. The university does not prevent everyone from getting married at the right age, but being forced to marry by a sister paper who is fifteen years younger than him, Lieutenant General Qi Rui, the political commissar of the North American Military Region, actually felt quite pressure. He replied with some prevarication: "Why are you in such a hurry, after graduating from college, you will decide on a job." ”
"I'm not in a hurry, uncle. How old are you, I don't want to marry a forty-year-old uncle in a few years. There was a taste of hatred for iron and steel.
Qi Ruixin said, 'I'm only thirty-three years old, okay'. But when I talked about this with a girl who was about to be eighteen years old, he felt that he didn't seem to have any position. Bu Ran is the half-sister of Qi Rui's classmate Bu Lu. The first time the two met was in the rooftop restaurant on the day Qi Rui last met Chu Xue, and the second time they met was when Qi Rui arrived in Vancouver Port from Beijing. Lieutenant General Qi Rui happened to meet his old classmate Bulu at the port, and was invited by Bulu to his father's house. Major General Bu Zhengtu warmly entertained Qi Rui, who was about fifteen years old at the time, and became very interested in this brother who was about the same age as her brother, but higher than her father's military rank. Then Buran was successfully admitted to the University of Tokyo with good grades and policies for the founding generals. During this period, Bu Ran went to play with Qi Rui when he was free.
I have to say that Bu Ran is really a beauty, and the beauty is a little unusual. When she announced that she was Qi Rui's girlfriend at the age of sixteen, the two also split up several times, and finally the relationship between the two stabilized, and now they are going straight to get married.
"Then I'll have to talk to my father and mother, and I'll have to take time to go back." Qi Rui finally decided to give in.
Bu Ran immediately smiled like a flower, but after a moment, two pink flowers flew on his creamy cheeks. Seeing her parents is a big deal, and just thinking about it makes the little girl feel uneasy. Not to mention that it was not ordinary people who wanted to meet, but Comrade Wei Ze, the emperor of the Min Dynasty. In addition to being shy, Bu Ran also felt a little flustered. Whether he can leave a good impression on such a big man, Bu Ran also feels that he has no score in his heart at all.
Qi Rui was a little confused when he went to work, and he felt very uneasy when he thought of writing a letter to his father. Although Qi Rui can now write letters or official documents about the army and national affairs with his father very calmly, his private affairs still make Qi Rui feel uncertain. Thinking that Daddy Wei Ze knew the matter of snow very well, Qi Rui's heart was even more empty.
When he was uneasy in his heart, Qi Rui habitually turned his thoughts to work. In less than two minutes, he calmed down. The order to cancel the Tokyo-based North American Integration Department officially arrived, a process that was planned to be completed two years later. At this stage, the original six provinces of North America and the four provinces on the east coast of the Pacific Ocean were placed under the central administration. The strength of the North American Military Region has also begun to be transferred, and the total strength of the army, navy, and air force has been reduced to 1.1 million. However, Qi Rui found a problem, the North American Military Region's troop establishment characteristics seem to be to allow the troops to have stronger long-range delivery capabilities. So he had to take into account the possibility that the military district might take on the hypothetical enemy plan to fight in Europe.
"What's wrong with this Europe?" Qi Rui began to think about discussing the issue of collecting European intelligence with the comrades of the military region. This was in May 1895.
Europe has a problem, not a military problem, but an economic one. After three months of plummeting food prices in the British bulk grain market, the European market finally triggered a full-blown food price crash as the harvest approached. In this process, the desperate sites chosen by the suicide victims are not only limited to the Thames, but also the Seine in France, the Le in Switzerland, and the Danube in Austria-Hungary, which are much better than the industrial pollution of the Thames, so the suicide victims look slightly better after being salvaged than the British suicide victims.
In Cyprus, Wang Mingshan rushed to take the town. In London, the young students in Uncle En's training class also got a lot of information. Many of Uncle En's students were not followers of communism, and they preferred to learn materialist dialectics. Dialectics was not invented by Uncle Ma, nor was it even invented by Hegel. But what can combine materialism and dialectics is one of Uncle Ma's achievements. The students faced Uncle En, who had been a scholar at the court of Wei Ze, the emperor of the Republic of China, and recounted the recent situation, "The price of food in the big cities has dropped a lot, because too many food products that cannot be stored have begun to be sold at a reduced price. ”
"As long as the transportation is not convenient, the retail price of grain in the market has not plummeted. But the price of buying grain began to plummet. ”
"Europe's agricultural regions are all about food prices plummeting. The only exceptions are France. ”
These introductions have made these students identify with Uncle Eun more and more, and if it was before, they would at most think that it was a very violent price crash. Now these people see the inevitability behind the appearance, so some students can't help but ask, "Why is the agricultural situation in Spain worse than in Russia?" No matter how you look at it, Russia is lagging behind Spain, right? ”
"Russia's steel production is close to France's, a lot of French capital has been invested in Russia to build factories, and Spain looks more advanced than Russia, that's all the old calendar." Max, who is also a student?? Webb replied bluntly.
"At least Russia's traffic situation is worse than Spain's, so why isn't Russia as bad as Spain seems?" Some of the students did not agree with Max?? Weber's view.
Max?? Webb continued: "Whether the state is bad or not depends on the degree of transaction in which the state operates. Farmers in Spain are many small yeoman farmers, and more than half of the produce they produce is kept for their own consumption. Only the extra products are sent to the market for sale. The Russian peasants, on the other hand, cultivated a large amount of land, and the purpose of their production was to get most of their grain to the market for sale. In this sense, the Russian peasants were much more advanced than the Spanish peasants. Even if they are shocked, they are mentally prepared because they have faced the experience of plummeting food prices before, so they will look better. ”
Seeing that the students didn't see the core, Uncle En said: "A lot of what Russia exports is feed grain with a bad taste, and the price is not high in the first place, but now the price has plummeted is the grain that people eat. The meat production cycle has not yet appeared, and the feed grain cycle has not yet arrived. ”
This explanation cleared many students' doubts, and after they took notes, a new question emerged, "If they can store food and survive the current low food price stage." Isn't that the way to go? ”
The students with experience in the countryside showed a disdainful expression on their faces, and this kind of urban people's words are really ridiculous if they are put in the countryside.
"Grain has a storage time." A classmate replied.
"The price of old grain is much lower than that of new grain." Someone added.
"Farmers often borrow money to be able to produce more food. If they don't sell the grain, what will they pay back? "Max?? Webb followed the mending.
Listening to the students' questions, Uncle En subconsciously touched Capital in front of him with his hand. There is a very precise description of the cost of production in this book, and it can be seen that some students only want to learn the explanation of the current situation, and do not have the quiet to learn these theoretical foundations at all. I have to say that Uncle En is quite disappointed with some of the students.
But Uncle En's attention quickly returned to the big fluctuations that broke out in front of him. Whether the fluctuations that started with food will turn into an economic crisis, Uncle Eun is not sure. It is possible that the volatility will subside soon, but this time it is coming from across Europe. From the intuition generated by experience, Uncle En already felt a sense of tension that the mountain rain was about to come and the wind was full of buildings.
