Chapter 69: Xu Lang's Change of Career (Part II)
He Yun and Cheng Yiyi took Sun Jiayi out of the door, Lu Tianxiang walked over and plugged the door, and when he returned to the table, he changed to a serious expression: "Has that person looked for you again?" β
"Nope. Pen Γ fun Γ Pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ info" Xu Lang suddenly became serious, "But I guess it's going to be soon." β
"Xiao Xu, you shouldn't come to school."
"Lu Lao." Xu Lang took a sip of his wine glass, "I'm really tired, I know my own character, it's too idealistic, I'm not suitable for politics, I just want to live a peaceful life now." β
"I know you're tired." Lu Tianxiang said, "You have done a lot for Yulin Bay in the past six months, and it is difficult for you." But the tree wants to be quiet and the wind does not stop. Don't you think there is a dark tide surging in Yulin Bay these days? β
"Dark tides?" Xu Lang didn't understand, "What do you mean, Lu Lao, isn't it because I offended people a lot, is there something else?" β
"If only it were as simple as you offending someone." Lu Tianxiang sorted out his thoughts and asked, "Do you know why I went to school and why I had to move here?" β
"Isn't it because you like to be quiet, is there something else?" Xu Lang asked rhetorically.
"There's one thing you forgot." Lu Tianxiang knocked on the table, "'The authorities are confused, and the bystanders are clear. Only by stepping out of this circle can we see this circle clearly. Do you remember when we were discussing the Pearl Convention before we landed, and there was a call for a strong and efficient organization with unity of thought and action? β
"You mean Zhang Guodong, those military people?" Xu Lang asked.
"Nope." Lu Tianxiang shook his head, "I understand Zhang Guodong, I watched him grow up since he was a child, and other people in the Military Commission are basically straightforward, although they may have different opinions, but they will never make small moves behind their backs, but some people are deeply hidden." β
"You're referring to the guy looking for me?" Xu Lang still hasn't told anyone who has looked for him.
Lu Tianxiang did not answer Xu Lang's question, but continued: "The system we are running now is still the best system at present, of course, no system in the world is perfect. But this system has a fatal flaw, which is that it is easy to lead to the tyranny of the majority over the minority, and this tyranny is often carried out under the banner of nobility, which makes it easier to confuse people. Do you know why Wang Hua was sent to Qiongzhou? β
"Yes, check the accounts." Xu Lang replied nonchalantly, "Just check, we are not greedy anyway." β
"Childish, confused." Lu Tianxiang has the meaning of hating iron and not steel.
"I, why am I naΓ―ve again?"
"Why did you send Sun Tianhao out in the first place?" Lu Tianxiang's fingers kept tapping on the table, "Divide and conquer." You still call yourself a history buff, you can't understand this thing. You, Sun Tianhao, Jiang Beiming, and what Zhang Hai, Shi Xianyang, Liu Guannan, a few of you get together all day long, aren't you afraid of others gossiping? β
"What gossip, we are friends but not parties." Xu Lang was very unconvinced.
"It's still a friend but not a party, who will believe it." Lu Tianxiang had a somewhat educating tone for the younger generations, "Sending Sun Tianhao and Zhang Hai out is to break you up, and those two people can't make any waves outside." But no one thought that you would go with you, the three of you are together, and there are Jiang Beiming and Liu Guannan in Yulin Bay, if you say something unpleasant, you can echo each other from afar, and you will not be subject to military orders abroad. Even if you don't come back this time, the committee will transfer you back, think about it yourself. β
Xu Lang felt that his cold sweat was about to come down: "Old Lu, is it so serious, this, this is too dark." β
"It's called black, too?" Lu Tianxiang smiled coldly, "This is just a conspiracy, what thing is not above board, which thing is not in accordance with the convention?" When you know about the conspiracy, you will know what black is. β
"Will Hao and Zhang Hai have anything to do that day?"
"Don't worry." Lu Tianxiang soothed his tone, "As long as you come back, the two of them won't have anything to do, and it will never be possible to transfer them back." β
Seeing that Xu Lang didn't speak, Lu Tianxiang said again: "Xu Lang, you still don't say who the person looking for you is, I don't blame you for this, you have your promise and your principles." But not everyone is as upright as you, if just because of your personal integrity to damage the interests of the entire crossing group, or even the interests of the entire Chinese nation, then it is not a matter of integrity, but stupidity. β
"Old Lu, what you said is too serious." Xu Lang felt that Lu Tianxiang was a bit exaggerated, "Just such a thing can damage the interests of the Chinese nation." β
"Xiao Xu." Lu Tianxiang looked up at the roof and said slowly, "I'm old, it doesn't matter, but you are still young." I don't want you and your descendants to go back to that dark age, a time without thought and without dignity. A sentence of 'Qingfeng is illiterate, why do you flip through the book' can lose your head. Mr. Tsurutoshi's book for Mr. Kando, "Independent Personality, Free Spirit" is a belief that I have pursued all my life, and I hope that it will become something that you will pursue all your life. I've always wondered if we were really the ones who were put into this era to solve the Needham problem. We have technology that is 400 years ahead, but our minds must also be 400 years ahead? Even in our day, the thirst for power was normal. We are off to a good start, at least the most advanced system in this era is here with us, and it has begun to operate in Yulin Bay, but who can guarantee that this system will definitely develop in a good direction. Let's not forget that it was this system that Hitler used to come to power. If my estimate is correct, in three months' time, the Convention will be amended for the second term. β
Xu Lang was upset by Lu Tianxiang's words: "Old Lu, my brain is very messy now. β
"It doesn't matter," Lu Tianxiang also realized that he might have said too much, "It's just a good time to be quiet in school these days, think about it, you have time." β
At the gate of Yulin Bay School, a sign was added under Lu Tianxiang's famous words, on which were ten characters written by Lu Tianxiang himself: "Independent personality, free spirit." β
Xu Lang stood on the podium. Looking at the more than 20 children in front of him, he was a little excited. It's been more than half a year, and I've returned to this familiar environment, and I can talk about it again.
"Kids." Xu Lang said, "In the future, we will live together and study together for a while, before teaching you knowledge, I want you to remember a sentence, and I hope you can remember it for the rest of your life." These are the ten words at the entrance of our school, 'Independent personality, free spirit'. Maybe you don't understand it yet, but one day, you will understand. A person can have no power, no money, or even no knowledge in this life, but he must have thoughts, have the ability to analyze and judge problems independently, and never follow the crowd. β
Qiu Peng's shipyard is in full swing. The committee decided that all the 36 ships captured this time would be dismantled, except for those that could be used after repair, and the removed timber would be rebuilt into Type 30 gunboats.
The first Type 30 gunboat was officially launched in early April, and the shipyard was crowded with people, and a brand new Type 30 gunboat was moored in the dock. The 40 newly recruited crew members, trained by John, had mastered the skills of handling a simple sailboat, and were now standing neatly on the deck waiting for orders.
John walked over and bowed deeply to the Committee and the Military Council: "Dear gentlemen, the Divine is ready and ready to be launched now. β
Fan Qiuming took out a wine jug from behind him and said to Zhang Guodong: "Chairman Zhang, please." β
Zhang Guodong hurriedly excused himself: "It's better for you to come, you are the chairman." β
"No, come on, you're the chairman of the Military Commission."
"Alright, don't let it go." Someone behind shouted, "Come along." β
"Yes, come along." Zhang Guodong pulled Fan Qiuming to the bow of the boat, and the two of them smashed the wine jug to the bow of the boat.
The behavior of the two people made John very puzzled, could it be that this ship also likes to drink?
Qiu Peng stood on the deck and said to John, who had just come up, "John, you can start." β
John no longer thought about the smashing of the flask, and gave the order: "Get into the water." β
