Chapter 30: Friends
Ruan Zhongshu, what's the matter with you? As an officer, an officer of the new army with high hopes from top to bottom. How can you do such a thing that violates the reputation of the military?
Yuan Shikai was very excited, and his voice was full of emotion.
Ruan Zhongshu was not mentally prepared, and he really didn't know that this was "against the reputation of the military", so he was so frightened that he hurriedly withdrew from Yuan Shikai's camp.
Thinking about it later, I feel that something is wrong, isn't Yuan Shikai's aunt and wife from a brothel? Why didn't he "violate the military reputation"? Isn't this only the governor allowed to set fires, and the people were not allowed to light lamps?
Ruan Zhongshu was also angry: Is this still a friend? Didn't you ask me to do something? This made Ruan Zhongshu suddenly think about one thing.
Not long ago, he read a novel written by a foreigner about a young man who had just graduated from university and studied law, and couldn't find a business anywhere.
It's no wonder who doesn't hire a lawyer with a bit of fame in a lawsuit? Regardless of whether the lawsuit is won or lost, the lawyer's fees will be paid, who can use a recent graduate?
The young man was very depressed, and at one time he drank a little wine and complained to a loan shark.
talked about how good he was in school and how good he was in helping others fight lawsuits during his internship. Forget it when you're done whining! When I woke up, I forgot about it. I only remember that the loan shark was very picky, and the two of them drank or he, a recent graduate, and the account was settled by a person who had no income.
Unexpectedly, a few days later, someone came to him to represent him in the lawsuit, and it took a lot of effort to remember that it was the loan shark who had drunk with him. There is only one condition, no payment.
The reason is that for a person like him who has just left school, it would be good to give him a chance to perform, but what fee does he charge?
Young people want to stay anyway, and if they don't pay, they don't pay.
Several lawsuits were brought to the usurer, and the young man's fame grew.
Many people asked him to represent him in the lawsuit, but the loan shark still did not pay for him to represent him in the lawsuit. The reason is that if he doesn't fight a lawsuit, can this young man be famous? Anyone please? The lawyer's fee is like the advertising fee paid by the young man for him.
The young man felt that the usurer's words also made some sense, so he did not bother with him.
It is gold that always shines, and the young man's business is getting better and better, and he can't do it alone, so he wants to open a law firm. As soon as I inquired, there happened to be a law firm that was going to be transferred, but the funds in my hands were not enough.
Then he remembered the loan shark, who had become good friends and only helped him with his lawsuits, never paying.
It's definitely no problem to borrow money, thinking that it's a good friend of mine, and it's always free to help him fight a lawsuit, so this interest has to be discounted, right?
No, it's not a lot more than others, and there are additional conditions to continue to fight for him for free.
That's not all, but he also proposed: he invested in young people, and he should always see the effect of his investment. That is, every Saturday, I have to sit at the young man's law firm and give him a cup of tea for free.
It's nothing to sit in your own law firm and have a cup of tea, but young people feel aggrieved!
However, if you don't borrow money, you can't do it, and you can only agree.
When the young man had paid off all the principal and interest after a lot of hard work, the young man couldn't hold back and asked the usurer a question: "We are such good friends, you are willing to lend me money, since you want to fulfill me, why are the conditions so harsh?" ”
The young man was embarrassed to mention the matter of fighting for him for free.
The young man was stunned by the loan shark's answer, "Because I lend you money so harshly, you will not think that I am kind to you, so our relationship is still equal, and it has not changed in the slightest because I have lent you money; So we can still be such good friends. ”
After reading this book, Ruan Zhongshu kept thinking about this passage. He thinks this passage is very mysterious, can't people be friends if they are not equal? Ruan Zhongshu can't figure it out?
Now, he understands that two unequal people can't be friends.
No wonder when she left the Li Mansion, Li Lianying said: "When Brother Ruan arrived at the barracks, he and Lord Yuan became a commander and a subordinate, so it would be difficult for this friend to be." ”
Now it seems that it is not difficult to do, but it is impossible to do.
I thought that I would be able to live a life of raising my eyebrows and being proud of my friends. It's been a long time, and it's the same as in the Li Mansion - under the fence.
Is it out of here? Thinking that he is also an official now, Ruan Zhongshu is really reluctant.
However, in the following days, Ruan Zhongshu rarely went in and out of Yuan Shikai's tent. Talking to Yuan Shikai and doing things is not as natural and cordial as in the past.
However, Yuan Shikai didn't seem to notice, and everything was as usual.
Ruan Zhongshu thinks that this may be normal, a normal relationship between superiors and subordinates, and he was misplaced in the past.
One day, Yuan Shikai was going to Tianjin and asked Ruan Zhongshu to go with him.
The assignment of the boss, let me go, just follow!
After arriving in Tianjin, Ruan Zhongshu thought that Yuan Shikai was an office worker, but he didn't. He didn't go to any yamen, but took him to a private house.
Seeing the red lanterns hanging on the courtyard gate and the word "big joy" pasted on them, Ruan Zhongshu thought that people were doing a happy event! Yuan Shikai brought himself to drink the wedding wine.
Can you drink as much as you want? Gotta get a share of the money. How can you think of drinking happy wine? I left in a hurry, and I didn't have any money with me?
and Yuan Shikai, Yuan Shikai said that it was true to do happy events? It's just that you don't have to take any money to drink here.
I followed Yuan Shikai in a daze, and as soon as I entered the new house, I heard someone shouting that the groom had arrived.
Someone came up and brought a flower tied with red silk to Ruan Zhongshu.
What's going on? Someone picked up the hijab on the bride's head, and the bride was Xiaoyu that Ruan Zhongshu thought about day and night.
It turned out that since that day, Yuan Shikai sent someone to redeem Xiaoyu and arranged the current scene.
Yuan Shikai also said that this "violation of military reputation" no longer exists, because the person has been ransomed from the brothel, that is, the Ming media is marrying.
In the days to come, Ruan Zhongshu and Yuan Shikai didn't know if they were friends. It's just that until the end, Yuan Shikai was embattled, everyone betrayed his relatives, and Ruan Zhongshu always followed him.
Yuan Shikai trained in a small station, and when everyone was added together, there were only 7,000 people. How did Yuan Shikai get such abundant resources and such proud capital?
You must know how many of the 7,000 people who went out from here have become feudal officials, and how many have become princes and officers of all levels.
And it was these 7,000 people who blossomed and became the trump card in Yuan Shikai's hands - the Beiyang Army.
In a group of people, you can become the leader of the three armies. The sleeve characters may be gracious to all directions, or have a good relationship, or have outstanding personality charm, or ....... In short, being able to gather everyone around you will always have something different from ordinary people's convincing behavior.
What does Yuan Shikai rely on? It seems that it is difficult for someone to make it clear.
However, we know that there is such a group of people who have carried him to the throne of the first president of the Republic of China.
1898 was an unusual year for China. In this year, a major event occurred in China, known in history as the "Wuxu Reform".
Because this change was made on June 11 of the same year, the 28-year-old Guangxu Emperor promulgated the "Ming Dingguo is Edict", which officially announced to the world and announced the change. On September 20 of the same year, the Empress Dowager Cixi re-instructed, and Emperor Guangxu was imprisoned. A total of one hundred and three days have passed, so it is also called the "Hundred Days Restoration".
After the defeat of the First Sino-Japanese War, the great powers of various countries stepped up the pace of carving up China, putting China in danger of national extinction.
In order to save the world and seek change, it is the direct cause of this change.
The leader of the Reform Movement. The sleeve characters are Kang Youwei and Liang Qichao.
