The cause of the Tianjin teaching case was the sudden death of a large number of orphans, and then rumors appeared among the people in Tianjin: the orphanage run by foreigners gouged out the eyes of young children to make foreign medicines. Then it caused a dispute between the citizens of Tianjin and the church that adopted the orphans, and the matter quickly fermented, resulting in a large-scale confrontation and conflict, and the citizens of Tianjin burned down the French church. Things are getting bigger and bigger in a very short period of time, and if you think about it carefully, it is impossible if there are no people who are interested in joining the series to help the trouble. So what is the purpose of the people behind this? Young Master Liang has finally figured it out now.

This is probably the first trick of the gossip serial hand that the young lady of Changchun Palace meditated on, the target of this incident is the French church rather than the English church, I am afraid it is also calculated, Guy is the world boss of the British Empire, and Miss Cixi does not dare to provoke it.

Although this young lady has not yet uttered such bold words as measuring China's material resources and forming a friendship with the country, the cold heart of manipulating politics has been cultivated; What made Young Master Liang indignant was that she actually took those orphans as sacrifices, thus prompting the Tianjin Teaching Incident, how unfortunate those orphans were, and they were so miserable!

Probably because of the lack of virtue and doing too much, Miss Cixi's biological son suffered retribution and died early before he was twenty, which makes people have to sigh: the reincarnation of heaven, the cycle of cause and effect.

Thinking of this, Young Master Liang said to Zeng Guofan and Zhao Liewen: "Teacher, Brother Huifu, I want to do a good deed this time, I want to set up orphanage homes in Tianjin and Baoding, adopt orphans who have no support, and at the same time buy children in the labor market in North China, send these children to Shanghai or Guangzhou, teach them to read and write, and let them work in factories and learn crafts when they grow up, which can be regarded as finding a way out for them."

Rong Hong, who had been waiting next to him for a long time, finally couldn't help but interject: "My lord, Senior Brother Liang's move is very good!" Rong Hong has always believed that if China wants to take the road of becoming a strong country, it must let more young students learn Western science; Rong Hong once again implored the adults to make a statement to the imperial court, and the public sent young children to study abroad to cultivate savings talents for our China."

Zeng Guofan nodded to Liang Sihan and said: "This is a good deed, and it is naturally supported by the teacher; I have also heard that your Liang family has bought many orphans in Shanghai, although the Liang family is a wealthy family, but they do not forget to accumulate virtue and do good, which is really a great merit; I have done a lot of killing for the teacher over the years, although there is a reason for it, but after all, it is against the peace of heaven, and now you can do more good deeds, which can be regarded as making up for some debts for the teacher."

Then he turned his head to Rong Hong and said, "Da Meng, I have already given your suggestion to the imperial court, but there is no response; Alas, the reason for this, I think you can figure it out now."

Rong Hong, a fake foreign devil, didn't know much about these political tricks, and Zhao Liewen saw that he hadn't reacted yet, so he explained to him: "The imperial court is now suspicious of your lord, and you are also a subordinate of your lord, how can the imperial court agree to such a good thing that can increase our reputation?" “

The defense of the Han people in the Manchu Qing Dynasty is also nothing! As for Shenma cultivating talents for the country? It can only be said that Shenma is just a floating cloud. Hehe! What is the reason for cultivating talents for spicy Han people?

Rong Hong, who understood it, was stupid, it turned out that this is the current situation in China! This is the so-called politics of the Qing Dynasty! He has been in the United States for a long time, and he really does not understand that such a ruling class and such a dynasty can still rule such a large country, which shows how sad China's future will be. Rong Hong's innocent heart suddenly became desolate.

Young Master Liang couldn't stand it anymore, so he interjected: "Senior Rong, why do you have to wait for the imperial court to agree to this kind of thing?" If you need the name of the official, you can also send the official to study abroad in the name of the governor of the teacher, and if you need money, I will bear it; I always thought that a problem that could be solved with silver was not a problem; I also hope that the teacher will look at Senior Rong's sincerity and fulfill him."

Zhao Liewen scolded with a smile next to him: "You kid is not a family and don't know the price of oil and salt, Rong Hong's young children's study abroad plan has already been excerpted, and the difficulty of the whole plan is that the imperial court needs to approve the allocation of 150,000 taels of silver for studying abroad, since you are willing to bear this cost, naturally you don't have to care whether the imperial court agrees to this plan", the implication is that if you want to lose, we can't stop it!

150,000 taels of silver, not too much, not too little; In 1869, the purchasing power of silver was absolutely undeniable, equivalent to 300,000 dollars; If you think, being able to pay in full for all the tuition and living expenses of 120 young children from elementary school to college in the United States is a big expense in itself, and it will be a big amount in future generations; It can be seen that in order to fulfill his wish, Yung Hong also calculated this expenditure carefully, not to make a profit from it.

Zeng Guofan also had to express his position at this time: "Zhenxi, how many affairs have you experienced as a teacher over the years, is it that kind of pedantic person?" What's more, Da Meng was also recommended and promoted by me. In the early years of his teacher, he and Hu Wenzhong (Hu Linyi) discussed foreign affairs, and the world is like this, how can we not understand it? Da Meng is also dedicated to the country, how can we not support it? It's just that this public student is sent to study, even if our local government raises its own funds, it must have a name, otherwise the imperial court will investigate and punish me for embezzling a large amount of official money. Those of us don't have as much money as you, and now that you are sponsoring, of course I support this plan! “

Rong Hong didn't understand it next to him, but the adult agreed? Why did the master and apprentice talk in circles, and the already desperate things were reversed all of a sudden?

Zhao Liewen laughed when he saw it: "Look, you two talked for a long time and made Da Meng dizzy!" “

The master and apprentice looked at Rong Hong with a cute face, and they couldn't help laughing, and then burst into laughter······

The poor fake foreign devil was immediately dizzy by their laughter, and he was silly happy with them.

Young Master Liang said with a smile: "Senior, you have to be busy with more things next, select schoolchildren, organize training before studying abroad, learn language and mathematical knowledge in advance, and teach them some American life content and customs; I think it's better to put this study abroad training class in the primary school affiliated to our University of Shanghai for Science and Technology, oh, by the way, if you go to the United States, you have to find a successor to the president, and someone has to do things for the University of Shanghai for Science and Technology."

Rong Hong, who had just woken up, was so excited that his face turned red, and he nodded again and again in agreement: "Senior Brother Liang, don't worry, the University of Shanghai for Science and Technology is equally important, I will definitely do a good job, but I don't know if you have a suitable successor?" “

Young Master Liang thought about it: "There is one candidate, you must have heard of this person, it is Wang Tao, who worked in Shanghai Mohai Library in his early years, but he is now studying in Europe, I don't know when he will come back, and whether he can hand over to you."

Then he turned to Zeng Guofan and said: "This Wang Tao has learned everything, is a great talent, and is a native of Suzhou, and it is suitable for his disciples to hire him as the president of the University of Shanghai for Science and Technology, but this person had correspondence with Changmao in the early years, so he was wanted by the government, but in fact, it is just nothing, not to mention that he is indeed a person of insight who worries about the country and the people, and asks the teacher to help him exonerate."

Zeng Guofan hadn't spoken yet, and Zhao Liewen next to him grabbed the conversation: "Some small things, don't bother the teacher, I'll do it for you, and even if my brother can do his best for you." Zeng Guofan smiled and approvingly from his seat.

Young Master Liang turned around and said to Rong Hong: "Senior, since I am sponsoring this matter, I think 30 people a year is too little, just send 50 people every year, and you can't just send it for 4 years, you can send it every year, as long as my Liang Sihan's financial resources can allow, I will send it all the time; In this way, China and the United States will improve their relations as a result."

"Ahh Rong Hong was once again stunned by this junior's generosity! Zhao Liewen waved his hand beside him and persuaded: "Senior brother, you also have to do what you can, will the Venerable Council agree to your such a large investment?" It's not a business, there's no return on profits."

"Brother Huifu, I know in my heart, this kind of thing is a long-term event for the benefit of the country and the people, and how can it be measured by money, junior brother, I don't have any other skills, and I still have two brushes to earn silver (the king of Vietnam suddenly felt a chill)."

Young Master Liang has such a big and all-encompassing posture, Zhao Liewen is not easy to persuade anymore, you have a lot of money, you are willful, we just have one word "Serve!" "You kid is a white ding, but it's the prime minister's heart.

And Zeng Guofan, who watched all this silently, never spoke, in fact, his heart was already turbulent, he didn't know whether it was right or wrong to accept this disciple, he was young but he was a posture of taking the world as his own responsibility, and he also cared about the state-to-state relations between China and the United States, by the way, he was talking about China, not the Qing Dynasty, what did he want to do? What is he doing now for the future?

Thinking about it, Zeng Guofan was shocked into a cold sweat, and he didn't dare to think about it anymore.
