Full of chivalry, full of fierceness, but like a dragon trapped in the shallows, there is no way to show it, and even has to bend his waist for five buckets of rice. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info went to Xunxi Girls' School to teach, although it was not condescending, but it was far from Qiu Jin's original intention.

Besides, what she saw and heard was unfair in front of her, and she had nothing to do. Take money to fund it, no; Helping each other, powerless; It's better to be a rough man, just let the name of Xingyitang shine, let the boss retreat, and even pointed out the way to life for this desperate father and daughter.

Chen Wenqiang, yes, Qiu Jin knows the name and knows his achievements. When the revolutionary passion was burning, she looked down on this person who was willing to engage in "scientific salvation" and "industrial prosperity" under the rule of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and even approved of the revolutionary cadres in the League to scold them as "despicable and shameless, willing to be slaves."

But now, she could only watch this thirteen-year-old girl gasping for breath, coughing up blood, stepping into the ghost gate, but she couldn't do anything; And the "shameless" "slave" may give the girl a new life because of the new medicine he invented.

According to Beichen's words, "Before the recovery, what was saved was not my country, and what I wanted was the strength of other people." Saving thousands of lives can also be said to be "the people who are not saved by our country"? If we talk about hard work and action, maybe this Xingyitang and the Shanghai Chinese Association have done more than the revolutionary party, right?

After talking about it but achieving nothing, Qiu Jin despised the international students in Tokyo more and more. She bought some soup and gave it to a man named Lao Li to watch Lao Li feed the girl named Xian'er. Only such practical actions may be able to give her some psychological comfort. But Xian'er coughed again after taking a few sips, spitting out a large chunk of thick phlegm with blood.

"Gotta give her a fever." Qiu Jin hated that she was not a doctor, so she could only put a wet towel on the girl's head.

"I know." Lao Li sighed heavily, "It's all tired in that factory, and the work is very hard......"

In the silk reeling factory, all the children work twelve hours a day. Because their dexterous little hands are good for that kind of work. The women sat on benches across from them, facing them. They had to stand and stir the cocoons with their little soft hands. Cocoons are soaked in a boiling pot. When they found the silk head, they took it into the hands of the woman opposite, where they wrapped six threads together and wound them around the yarn. A child pulls the head of two women.

"Not a single window will be opened, because the steam softens the calluses. The overseers were very bad-hearted, they slapped children, and beat women with sticks...... "The more Lao Li spoke, the more he seemed to be talking about the furnishings in the store, and the more Qiu Jin listened, the heavier it became.

"The Chinese Association in Shanghai is very strong, and almost all of the people who pull rickshaws in Shanghai are from the guild, behind them is Xingyitang, and there are foreign devil lawyers on the table." Lao Li pondered and said, "It's just that they are very domineering. As you heard just now, they may pay for a doctor to treat Xian'er's illness, but after being cured, Xian'er will no longer be my daughter. ”

"That's not the way it is." Qiu Jin shook her head and explained what the big man said just now, "Xian'er is still your daughter, but she has to work for them, and you can't sell her to others in the future." ”

"It's not the same." Lao Li said stubbornly: "My daughter. Why can't I be the master? After speaking, he glanced at Qiu Jin suspiciously.

Qiu Jin wanted to say more. saw Yao Hongye coming in a hurry and beckoned her into the house.

"You're going to Qiongzhou?" Hearing Yao Hongye's plan, Qiu Jin was very surprised.

Yao Hongye opened the newspaper in his hand and showed Qiu Jin the report on it, "Revolution, revolution." If you look at the Revival Society, that's what it's called a revolution. Empty words, useless; If you have the ability, you can study the Revival Society, and you can do it with the imperial court with real knives and guns. ”

Qiu Jin was immediately attracted by the report and read it carefully. nodded slightly from time to time, and a look of admiration and admiration appeared on his face.

"I see, it's better for all of us to go to Qiongzhou." Yao Hongye threw aside the letter of appointment that had not been put away on the table, "Xunxi may not lack a female teacher, but China's revolution really lacks bloody and hard-working revolutionaries. Combined with the uprisings of the Revival Society, and a careful analysis of their purpose, I think they are pragmatic and sincere, rather than ashamed and unashamed. ”

"You are going to Qiongzhou to participate in the uprising, which I have no objection to." Qiu Jin said cautiously: "But you and I are not members of the Revival Society, and we may not be accepted when we get there." Furthermore, what about the travel fee to Qiongzhou? ”

"Let's talk about it." Yao Hongye flipped the page of the newspaper, pointed to the notice on it and said: "The travel fee is also easy to solve, let's sign up to go to Qiongzhou for development and construction, as immigrants, the Overseas Chinese Reclamation Company entrusts the Chinese Association in Shanghai to act as an agent for immigration matters, but even the ferry ticket, food and drink, and future resettlement are covered." Look at this, for intellectual youth, people have more favorable conditions! In any case, it's better than staying here and waiting for food and clothing to be depleted! ”

Qiu Jin read it cursoly, and already understood, and said, "I see. This is because the Zhongqiao Reclamation Company was worried that the riots and uprisings in Wanning, Qiongzhou would affect their immigration work, so they published an explanation in the newspaper, which is reassuring. Yaxian, it's not very far from Wanning, right? ”

"It's not far away, it's all in Qiongzhou anyway." Yao Hongye is so determined, he really sees that there is no life, and it is a way to go to Qiongzhou, "Even if the revival society has a high vision and looks down on me as a waste, it is always okay to be a small soldier and carry a gun and work hard, right?" Besides, the requirements for membership of the Revival Association are not too strict, and it is all because we have low skills in Tokyo, and we feel that people are not resolute enough to oppose Manchu and the revolution is not thorough enough. In fact, you see, the Manchu chief Tieliang was killed by others, Shi Jianru's revenge was avenged by others, and the riots and capture of Wanning were also done by others, right? But what about us, the Alliance, just pay lip service. Hum. ”

Qiu Jin frowned, she was a supporter of the "Great Report Revenge", and she did not agree with the "Five Ethnic Republics" of the Renaissance Society. But the achievements of the Revival Society are solid and cannot be questioned.

"The discipline of the Revival Society is very strict, and I did feel a little disgusted at first, but now that I think about it, it is not unreasonable. If they go their own way, is it still a strong group? Yao Hongye continued: "At least the people are united within themselves, and there is no internal strife. Speaking of 'killing all the people' and 'reporting and replying', when I think about it, I think it seems to be angry talk. Women, children, old and young, are cut down and killed in front of you, I don't believe you can do it? That's what I thought anyway, no matter what you guys do. I must go to Qiongzhou. ”

After Yao Hongye returned to China angrily in history, he either suffered from having no way out because of his difficult life and borrowing everywhere, or because he felt that the Qing court officials were getting worse and worse, and he was depressed and angry, so he left a thousand words and threw himself into the Huangpu River to die. The Revival Society took the lead in the uprising in Qiongzhou. raise the banner of anti-Qing and anti-authoritarianism; At the same time, led by the Chinese Association in Shanghai, and has been immigrating to Qiongzhou, these two things together finally changed the trajectory of Yao Hongye's life.

"Since you are so resolute, I can't stop you......" Qiu Jin listened to Yao Hongye's words, he was no stranger, they were all propaganda of the Revival Association for a long time, and he knew that he had been affected by the revival and could not be stopped.

A voice from outside interrupted the conversation between the two. Chen Jingqing, a returning international student, led a person in.

"This is the unborn brother." Chen Jingqing couldn't wait to make an introduction, "Jingxiong, Jiansheng, our school has been settled, and my brother-in-law is willing to contribute to help." ”

"Brother Gong Baoquan also studied in Japan." Gong Baoquan greeted him with his hand and said with a smile: "Jianhu Woman, I have admired her name for a long time; Brother Jiansheng. I have long admired it! ”

There are not a few students who have returned to Japan due to the "Regulations on the Prohibition of Qing International Students", and a large number of students have returned to Shanghai. But it didn't land. Qiu Jin and others ran around to raise funds and wanted to set up a school, but they repeatedly ran into a wall. Now Gong Baoquan suddenly appeared, and he was generous, pleasantly surprised. It also makes people doubt his intentions.

"Dehua University of Technology, a Sino-German joint venture, will initially be located in Yaxian County, Qiongzhou, and hire German teachers to teach physics and chemistry courses; Shanghai Public School. It is tentatively designated as a university class, a middle school class, a normal crash course, and a physics and chemistry special course, and the school site is tentatively located in western Shanghai. If you don't want to continue your studies, you can also find a job through the Shanghai Chinese Association. Gong Baoquan smiled and talked eloquently, "The charter has been finalized, and it will be reported tomorrow." Not only returning students studying in Japan, but also domestic aspiring scholars can apply, and as long as the conditions are qualified, if there is any difficulty in the accommodation and other expenses, they can be taken care of. ”

Well, people have arranged it, just to inform, but they are not here to hire or ask for it. In other words, Dehua University of Technology and Shanghai Public School are all led by others, who makes people rich!

"Jianhu Woman, Brother Jiansheng, and Brother Jingqing, if the three of them are willing, the brothers can be the masters and invite the three of them to be student officers." Gong Baoquan smiled heartily, not to be able to recruit these three people, but to be excited and excited about the uprising in Qiongzhou.

"Yaxian County, Qiongzhou?" Yao Hongye's eyes lit up, and he said very simply: "Then I'll go to Dehua University of Technology, it's just my German-"

"It's hard to recruit German proficient people in China." Gong Baoquan was relieved: "So, Dehua University of Technology is equipped with a translator, but it is only one year, if you can't study diligently in this year, hehe." ”

"I see, it's Dehua University." Yao Hongye nodded resolutely.

Qiu Jin looked at Gong Baoquan carefully, and asked tentatively: "Did Your Excellency participate in the Military National Education Association in Tokyo and are very familiar with Yang Dusheng, right?" ”

Gong Baoquan smiled and did not answer the question directly, "There is no need to mention the past, today's visit is just to make friends with all the heroes and discuss the placement of returned international students." Time is precious, and you don't want to waste it, do you? ”

"The Chinese Association in Shanghai is so domineering!" Qiu Jin showed a slight dissatisfaction, "If you want to save people, you can save them, why do you need many conditions, isn't it taking advantage of people's danger?" ”

Gong Baoquan was puzzled, listened to what Qiu Jin said, pondered for a while, and said lightly: "What is the psychology of being a father when you send your daughter into such a factory?" If it can be cured, can you guarantee that this father will not let her work to make money again? Or sell her? On the other hand, isn't the condition proposed by the Shanghai Chinese Association a protection for this girl? ”

"Don't you feel guilty if you let this girl die because of the conditions that were imposed?" Qiu Jin asked rhetorically.

Gong Baoquan sighed softly and said, "The world is like this, there are people who need help at all times. To make a figurative analogy, that is, in a pond, there are people falling into the water everywhere, and there are countless hands asking for help sticking out of the water. If you save them one by one, not only will you not be able to save a few people, but you will also be so tired that you will fall into the water and drown. The most radical way is to drain the water, and when the water is dry, everyone will be saved. But before the water dries up, isn't that hand crying for help, that cry of despair, condemning our conscience? You thing that has lost your conscience, how can you be so ruthless and not save you when you die? ”

The room fell silent all of a sudden, thinking about Gong Baoquan's philosophical and somewhat ruthless words.

Gong Baoquan's faint voice sounded again, "The Chinese Guild in Shanghai is doing its best to save one if it can, but it will never be exhausted and in danger of drowning. Do you know how many poor families in Shanghai who have no food or clothing have immigrated to Qiongzhou? Do you know how much the Shanghai Chinese Association spends every year to help the victims? You don't know all of this, you don't know how hard it takes to run such an institution. ”

"Scholar, I used to be like you, thinking about things simply, and thinking that I was very powerful, until—" Gong Baoquan sighed, a little aware that he had talked too much, hurriedly stopped talking, paused, and smiled to himself, "Since the Jianhu Woman is worried about this, then I will take care of it, and I will go back and send someone to send that girl to the hospital." As for whether it can be saved, I don't dare to guarantee it. ”

"Thank you for your help." Qiu Jin breathed a sigh of relief, if the tragedy that happened under her nose could have a good result, her anxiety and guilt would not be so great.

"That's it for now." Gong Baoquan arched his hand and said: "At six o'clock tomorrow night, there will be a welcome party for the Chinese Association in Shanghai. ”

"The Shanghai Chinese Association has a close relationship with Xingyitang, and Xingyitang is a gang in the rivers and lakes, and it has a wide range of contacts, so it is no stranger to the people of the Fuxing Association, right?" Yao Hongye suddenly asked.

Gong Baoquan hesitated slightly, and said: "I heard that the revival will focus on overseas development, but it is not clear in China. Moreover, that organization is quite tight, and I am afraid that outsiders can easily learn the inside information. Well, my brother has taken his leave first, if you have any difficulties, you can go to the guild to find me. ”
