Engels led Zhu Guoxiong into his office in the Warsaw Workers' and Peasants' Cadre School, and then dismissed the attachés on both sides, leaving the two of them in an empty room. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, please take a seat." Engels and Zhu Guoxiong knew each other very well, and it can be said that he grew up watching the latter. He first beckoned Zhu Guoxiong to sit down, then made two cups of Chinese green tea himself, and handed Zhu Guoxiong a cup.

"Mr. Engels, you have not yet answered my question. What kind of talent does this Warsaw School for Workers and Peasants Cadres cultivate? Just now, I saw a lot of Chinese students. Zhu Guoxiong took the teacup, but did not take a sip, but looked at Engels with blazing eyes and continued to ask.

Engels smiled and admitted: "Of course, this school is mainly aimed at training revolutionaries, and although there are many professional courses, the main purpose of its existence is to train revolutionary cadres!" ”

This answer made Zhu Guoxiong's expression a little more puzzled. He knew that the Republic of Poland was founded under the joint support of the Ming Dynasty and France. Moreover, the Ming and French must have been very familiar with the internal affairs of the Republic of Poland, so how could the Emperor and Napoleon III not know what this Warsaw School of Workers' and Peasants' Cadres was doing?

"Those Chinese......"

"Of course, they received the same education, but as for whether they can become revolutionaries, it is unknown." Engels shrugged his shoulders and said.

At present, a total of 280 Chinese students, including Jiang Zhaocong, are studying at the Warsaw Workers' and Peasants' Cadre School. However, there was no "rebel department" at the Warsaw Workers' and Peasants' Cadre School, and most of the people were studying junior colleges, except for Jiang Zhaocong, who was studying philosophy and history. Of course. In addition to professional courses, the school for workers and peasants cadres. It is also a socialist ideology and revolutionary doctrine to be instilled in students. There were also various progressive organizations - such as the Russian Land and Freedom Society. The Socialist Workers' Party of America, the French Workers' Association, the British Workers' Federation, and the newly formed Chinese Workers' Association, to name a few. Therefore, the revolutionary atmosphere was still very strong, so much so that Zhu Guoxiong, the successor of the counter-revolution, felt uncomfortable as soon as he stepped into the campus.

"Why?" Zhu Guoxiong's brows furrowed tightly. "My father must know about this matter, but why did he still let me come, and he didn't want to ...... it"

He didn't say any more, but Engels understood exactly what he meant. The revolutionary mentor's eyes flashed. I didn't know what thoughts were turning in my heart, and I said after a while: "Okay, since Your Majesty of China didn't tell you clearly, then let me tell you...... I think you've heard the term 'double-edged sword', right? ”

"A double-edged sword, there are pros and cons, hurting others and hurting yourself!" Zhu Guoxiong said coldly. "Mr. Engels, do you mean that the Polish Warsaw Workers' and Peasants' School is a double-edged sword?"

"A double-edged sword of revolution!" Engels gently turned the teacup in his hand, he knew Zhu Jishi too well, and of course he knew what the other party's purpose was in supporting Poland. "His Majesty of China and Napoleon III were very confident people. They are not afraid that they will be injured by this sword of revolution. ”

Zhu Guoxiong listened to Engels' words, and leaned back on the chair to think carefully. My father said, "Trying to force people to get rich confuses people's hearts". This seems to mean the same thing as Han Feizi's "the country is rich, and the people are rich, but it is difficult to govern". But in fact, my father did not agree that the people were poor and the country was rich, he always believed that the people's wealth was the foundation of the country's wealth, and the people's strength was the foundation of the country's strength. Although the rich and powerful people are difficult to govern, most of the people who really rose up in Chinese history were poor people who could not survive. At best, the rich and powerful people are difficult to govern, and rebellion is not enough.

In other words, the goal of seeking wealth by force has really been achieved, and there is nothing to be afraid of the freedom of people's hearts. What is really terrible is that when the country is strong but not strong, and when the people seek to get rich but not get rich, people's hearts are already in chaos...... And the Ming Dynasty and France have now reached the national strength, although the people are not rich enough, but there are many opportunities to get rich. Freedom of the human heart will only encourage them to seek prosperity rather than chaos. The real danger is precisely countries like Russia and Austria, which are not first-class powers, where there are not many opportunities for people to get rich, but where people's hearts have always been in turmoil. And these two countries have tens of millions of people and strong military traditions, if you don't start civil strife, it will not be easy to disintegrate them by force!

Thinking of this, Zhu Guoxiong nodded slightly, and when he was about to say something, there was a knock on the door, and then the voice of Liao Shouheng, the attaché arranged by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the deputy director of the Department of East European Affairs of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, came: "His Royal Highness the Prince, there is a student named Jiang Zhaocong who asks to see him. ”

……

"Back to His Royal Highness the Prince, the student is the chairman of the Chinese Workers' Association, but the student is also a loyal and patriotic citizen of the Ming Dynasty...... This workers' association is in fact the same organization as the chamber of commerce and the trade associations, and it is the union of the workers to bargain with the bosses for profit, and it is not only not in the slightest danger with the state, but also in its advantage. ”

Standing solemnly in front of Zhu Guoxiong and talking eloquently was a young man in his twenties with a somewhat cunning face, Jiang Zhaocong, who was the self-proclaimed chairman of the Chinese Workers' Association. Although he had now completed his studies at the Merchant Marine School and had appointed himself president of the workers' association, he did not have the courage to return to China to carry out revolutionary activities. Because he knows very well that his every move must be under the surveillance of the Ming Jinyi Guard. Among the 30,000 Chinese young people who go abroad for work-study programs. It would be strange if there weren't some of the brocade guard's spies. Therefore, he was very worried that he would be arrested by Jinyiwei as soon as he returned to China, and the workers' leader did not become a leader, so he gave away a small life first. That's why he came to Poland to expand his organization while studying, and planned to send his comrades back to China to engage in the workers' movement......

"Oh, that's right." Zhu Guoxiong held the teacup and replied noncommittally. The Ming Empire now suppressed the workers' movement more severely, so there were no national trade unions, and most of the workers' struggles were spontaneous small-scale struggles. However, the Ming judiciary also disagrees with such an approach, because freedom of association is written in the Ming Constitution. Now in addition to the trade unions, there will be a lot of other miscellaneous things, and if there are more trade unions, the world will really be in chaos? Moreover, there are many black-hearted capitalists in the Ming Dynasty, and all kinds of labor disputes are endless. Most of them are at fault with the management, either deducting wages or arbitrarily infringing on the lives of workers, and even many work-related accidents that could have been avoided occurred because of the management's profit-seeking.

And the power of the local government in the Ming Dynasty comes from the votes of industrial and commercial capital and landlords, who will really care about the workers? Oh, it seems that only the interests of workers in Hong Kong are more protected. Zhu Guojie, the eldest prince, doesn't take those black-conscience capitalists seriously!

Seeing Zhu Guoxiong muttering there without speaking, Engels next to him smiled and said: "His Royal Highness the Prince, I understand what Emperor Daming is worried about." He was afraid that the struggle of the workers' organizations might raise the level of wages in the Ming Dynasty and cause the industrial products of the Ming Dynasty to lose their international competitiveness. However, the current Ming Empire is large enough, and the domestic market and resources are enough to support higher wages...... In fact, higher wages can also boost demand. It is very beneficial for digesting excess capacity. ”

Zhu Guoxiong still didn't speak. In his mind, his father was no matter how cunning he was, and it must be justified for him to suppress the Ming workers' movement. It's better not to be too troubled yourself. Moreover, in so many revolutions in Europe, it was not their working class that took the lead?

Engels picked up the teacup from the desk, took a sip of green tea, and said with a smile: "His Royal Highness the Prince, why don't you start a small pilot first." Don't let go of the Ming Dynasty first, let the Chinese Workers' Association do something in the Japanese Kingdom, if it is really a flood beast, it will be too late to close the floodgates. A little Japan, where else can you mess up? ”

"In Japan?" Zhu Guoxiong frowned, still not very relieved in his heart. "This matter still needs to be discussed in the long run, and I will discuss it with my father after I return to China." He glanced at Jiang Zhaocong coldly, raised his hand and waved it lightly, and let the future leader of the Chinese labor movement quit. (To be continued.) )u
