The moon passed in the middle of the sky, and there was silence all around.

After coming to this era, the most unaccustomed thing for Zhu Jishi was to lose his sense of belonging to the country and the nation. In the past time and space, he knew very well that his motherland was China, but here he became a person without a motherland. The Qing Empire is not his homeland, and if he goes to the land of the Qing Empire, he will definitely be arrested and beheaded, and the country that occupies the land where China is located is not friend or foe. Zhu Jishi thought helplessly. He rested his head on his hands, and there was no sleepiness in his eyes.

The words that Engels had spoken to him during the day still lingered in his ears all the time. The Qing Empire, or China of this era, was not so incorrigible.

Napoleon's viewpoint, Engels' viewpoint, and what he has seen and heard in Britain these days seem to prove this judgment: as long as some necessary reforms are carried out seriously, China can easily resist the aggression from the West and smoothly embark on the road of modernization, thus avoiding the history of suffering and humiliation for more than 100 years to come, and the resistance to such reform does not seem to be as great as imagined.

Of course, the Qing Empire had a certain amount of historical baggage, but how many of the major countries in the East and the West were not troubled by this or that historical legacy?

Britain and France may be better. There was a slave problem in the United States; Russia had a problem of serfdom; Germany is now a "warlord scuffle" - the analogy may not be appropriate, but a truly united German state certainly does not exist; Italy is also a small country with bits and pieces; Not to mention the Ottoman Empire, which had a sick man in the Near East, a lot of internal and external troubles, a very strong religious conservative Shili at home, and the disputes between Islam and Christianity, as well as the two traditional sworn enemies of Russia and Austria.

As for Japan, which later became the sworn enemy of the Chinese nation in history, is still playing the game of "Shogun" (Zhu Jishi's historical knowledge is limited, but he has played a computer game called "Shogun 2 Total War", and for this reason, he has also learned some general information about the politics of the Japanese shogun), the system of this country is simply stuck in the Middle Ages, and there is no truly unified central government at all!

However, Japan's system was able to successfully carry out the Restoration, and the Ottoman Empire, a country with political, military, religious, and ethnic problems in a mess, was able to build a relatively powerful modern army through reform, and although it was defeated in the war with Russia and Austria, Russia's military investment in the war with the Ottoman Empire far exceeded the invading army sent by the Eastern and Western powers that the Qing Dynasty later faced. From this point of view, the Ottoman Empire's reforms were also somewhat successful.

However, in a country like the Great Qing Dynasty, which has the ability to consolidate centralized power and the emperor Lao Tzu has made a promise, the Westernization Movement has been carried out for decades in history, but even a truly modern army has not been established!

What's going on here?

In addition, do you want to do something for China in this era?

It's been almost six months since I came to Shijie, and I have not only established myself on my feet, but also made a name for myself with the medical knowledge I have mastered more than 170 years ahead of my time, and may soon be elected a member of the French Academy of Sciences. And Jihua, who made a fortune, is also making a smooth progress, becoming the majority shareholder of a rubber products company and a pharmacy. Relying on the four major patents of vulcanized rubber, morphine hydrochloride, diethyl X morphine and berberine hydrochloride, the development prospects of rubber products companies and pharmacies are beyond doubt, and it is only a matter of time before they make a fortune.

Now it's time to start thinking about what you're going to do after you've made a fortune. Getting married or something was just a joke with Ye Yiren that day, for himself who has both fame and fortune and looks passable, pickling girls is not a problem at all. So what you have to do after becoming famous and making a fortune is naturally for the country and the nation, but this topic sounds a bit big.

Zhu Jishi thought about it for a while, although there are clouds on the Internet: wear Qing and do not rebel, chrysanthemum set electric drill. But I don't seem to have the skills to rebel. I am a student of medicine, not of military affairs or politics. Not to mention a rebellion, he can't do it even if he occupies the mountains as kings and falls into the grass as a coward.

It is true that the fall of the Manchu Dynasty in history has a lot to do with Sun Yat-sen, who studied medicine, but that was decades later. If it were 1900, he might have been able to make a revolution with Sun Yat-sen, or even become one of the leaders of the revolutionary party with the help of his wealth and fame in Western countries.

But now, the Manchu dynasty is not over, although a Taiping Rebellion will occur in a few years. But what does this have to do with yourself? What language can I have in common with "cult leaders" like Hong Xiuquan and Yang Xiuqing? Is it hard to go and dance together with the great god and pretend to be a relative of God and his old man?

Of course, you can become a sponsor of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and if necessary, you can also open an arms company to provide them with arms...... By the way, picric acid has been invented for a long time, but the Europeans don't know how to use it as an explosive, but they know how to detonate picric acid, and how to prevent picric acid from becoming a very explosive picrate, so that they can make powerful grenades, or set up an arms company when they have spare money?

But the question is, is it really a good thing to let those gods of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom rule China? Although the GCD of later generations raised the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom very high, and believed that the denial of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom was historical nihilism - but no one can deny that the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom followed the path of theocracy, and if they were allowed to rule China, China was likely to continue on the path of theocracy and become a country like the Arab Empire and the Ottoman Empire, and such a system was not very suitable for the future Shijie. What's more, the leaders of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, such as Hong Xiuquan and Yang Xiuqing, were actually quite ignorant, and they were even better than the Manchu rulers.

In fact, almost all Chinese in this era know nothing about the West and about shijie! The real reason for the failure of China's Westernization movement is probably ignorance, right?

Helping Chinese open their eyes to shijie may be the mission given to them by God! Thinking of Zuihou, Zhu Jishi told himself that he should become a teacher, a teacher who introduced Shijie to China, brought science to China, and brought Western culture, art, politics, education, and military system to China, and he should become a guide for the modernization of Chinese society!

Thinking of this, he could no longer sleep, put on a dressing gown and sat down at the desk, lit a whale oil lamp, took a pen and paper, and seemed to be ready to write something. But after a long time, I didn't start writing, not because there was nothing to write, but because there were so many things to write, and there were so many things to write, and I didn't know where to start.

Starting with Western customs? Write a book similar to "Atlas of the Sea Kingdom"? It seems that I don't know much about the current situation in Western countries, why don't I spend some money to hire a gunman, I heard that Jones barrister has no business recently, why don't you let him write it? Just take care of the translation yourself. The title of the book is ...... Westward Journey, but the author's signature is still his own name!

Or introduce the military and politics of Western countries? Well, I don't seem to understand much, so why don't I go back and ask Engels and Will. Haiming writes it, the two of them are experts. The title of the book can be called "The Art of War" and "The Political Strategy of Taixi", and I am responsible for the translation, and by the way, I also signed it, and I may be able to show my face a few more times in the "Complete Works of Marx and Engels" in the future.

Why don't you write a little bit of Western science jishu stuff? This oneself...... It doesn't seem to work either! It's not that I don't understand, but I know too much! If you don't pay attention to writing out all the knowledge of chemistry and physics that you don't have in this era, let those European scientists read it? At that time, the gap between the East and the West in science Jishu will not be getting bigger and bigger! This one...... Just find some textbooks for British secondary schools and universities and translate them yourself.

When he arrived at Zuihou, Zhu Jishi took a deep breath, picked up the pen, and wrote the words "English-Chinese Dictionary - Zhu Jishi Ed." in Chinese on the paper......
