In fact, Li Mengyang's shock was only for a moment, because he immediately realized what the problem was, that is, Wilde's novel, which is full of 'basic feelings'!

So how can this be done?

Li Mengyang really doesn't do it!

But now it's hard to explain, this ...... It seems that sometimes, plagiarism comes at a price.

However, before she could think about it, Elena spoke again.

"Do you know why I dared to approach you?"

"I don't know." Li Mengyang shook his head.

"Because I want to confirm this, I see that you, this guy, are paying attention to that Swede, and you don't even spare such an old drunkard?" As soon as Elena finished speaking, she immediately laughed to herself.

"......" Li Mengyang didn't mention how embarrassed he was, such a beautiful woman ended up telling him that she liked men.

However, Li Mengyang was very concerned about another thing, "Do you know who he is?" ”

"Giggle......" Elena laughed, rather bad, "how can we DuPont family, who are in business with the military, not know about a big celebrity like John Erickson?" Even if he has been removed from the Navy. ”

"Huh?" Li Mengyang knows this person's name, but why is he a big celebrity? Yelena's words clearly meant something else.

"You don't know, do you? That was more than ten years ago, and this Erikson is very powerful, he invented the propeller......"

"He invented it?" As soon as Li Mengyang heard about this propeller, he was suppressed at that time, because this invention was too important, so which ship in later generations did not use a propeller? That's it? Such an old drunkard?

"Haha, I'll tell you slowly, it's true that he invented the propeller, but later, he studied the cannon again, and he wanted to make a double line in the cannon, you understand?"

"Understood."

Elena continued, "Unexpectedly, the cannon that came from the double line, he got it, but there was an accident, and several people were killed, and the Secretary of State at the time, Upshur, and the Secretary of the Navy, Thomas Gilmore, all died under his cannon!" Haha, I didn't hit the enemy, I blew up my own people first, and they were all big officials! Hahaha......"

At this moment, Li Mengyang fully understood, the previous conversation could explain anything, and even Li Mengyang could imagine the scene.

In the early years, people invented the propeller, which was a big success, and naturally high-spirited, and then engaged in cannons, but it didn't come to fruition, causing such a heavy loss, and the dead were all big people, so what can others think of his invention?

"I know about his new ship." Yelena is very well-informed.

"What kind of ship is that?" Li Mengyang's interest came immediately, in fact, the reason why he came to this party was to build a boat.

"That's a monster!"

"Huh?"

Can Li Mengyang not be confused?

Immediately afterwards, Yelena described it, and Li Mengyang also understood, but he was not a monster.

It was a ship with a hull below the waterline, and it was an ironclad ship!

New York is a harbor, but Li Mengyang has not seen an ironclad ship, although he knows that this kind of metal ship is the future development trend, but not now, and this Erikson actually got it, this ......

Talent! Absolute talent!

But why is the hull still below the waterline? Li Mengyang is a little confused about this matter, but it's nothing, talent, we have to find an opportunity......

"Through those words just now, I can confirm that you guy doesn't like men, you are definitely a guy who talks flatteringly and likes to cheat girls!" In the end, Yelena also gave Li Mengyang such a definition.

"God bears witness! I'm just showing off my gentlemanly demeanor. "Okay, at this time, Li Mengyang moved out of the great god of God.

"Haha, don't explain, the more you explain, the more sure I am!" Elena said she had a good brain, "But your jokes are good, and I like them." ”

"Oh." Li Mengyang is really a little incomprehensible to the woman Yelena, but there are even more incomprehensible things.

"I like people, too!"

"Huh?"

"Hahahaha......" left Li Mengyang with a stupid face, and Yelena left.

"How did I meet a strange woman?" Li Mengyang couldn't help but think of Eleanor, as if these foreign girls were a little abnormal.

Speaking of Eleanor, of course, she wouldn't come to such a party, but she wasn't idle, she was in the photo studio right now.

"That's it! Ma'am, sir, your photos have been taken. ”

"Oh, thank you!"

"Hah!"

Ma'am, sir?

At this time, the person who took the photo with Eleanor was a Caucasian and bearded, and his image would later be known to countless Chinese, because he would appear in the corridor of the school, he was Engels!

Engels?! How did he come to the United States?

Li Mengyang invited!

You must know that in October 1858, the New York Tribune also published his article, and at this time, Li Mengyang saw it, so he thought of a book, and he felt that he could copy it, and then let Mr. Engels read it.

The book that Li Mengyang came up with is called "The Condition of the Working Class in Britain"!

And the book he wrote on guard was called "The Condition of the American Working Class"!

Why did you come up with The Condition of the Working Class in England?

Because this book is really good, very good!

Many people don't know, many people, that is, Li Mengyang's later generations, there are too many people, when they hear Marxism and communism, their faces are not good-looking, they are either laughing or something, they think this thing is too much, anyway, they just don't believe it...... In fact, most of such people have never read relevant works.

As for this work of Engels, on a certain Douban in later generations, where small freshness, high compulsion, and scolding a large organization are the mainstream, the score of this book is also above 9 points, and few books are higher than it.

This book is really well written, it is a true portrayal of British workers in the 40s of the 19th century, and this is also a profound sociological work, which is really a subtle statement, and analyzes the entire British capitalist society very thoroughly.

In fact, many people in Europe are studying this book, not only now but also in the future, and Li Mengyang also knows that in 1892, the book can be regarded as an English version, but it can be regarded as being sold here in the United States, and as a result.

It sold out almost instantly!

Moreover, in 1892, Mr. Engels also made some special things in the preface of this book, that is, the situation of British workers at that time was much better than in the 40s of the 19th century, and he had some drawings in those years, but in spite of this, they were still sold out.

In this book, Engels saw an important historical reality, that is, the impact of China's opening of the door on the world.

In October 1858, an article published in the New York Tribune also highlighted the tremendous impact of Chinese trade on the entire capitalist society of the world.

Therefore, Li Mengyang got in touch, and he came all the way from the west, experienced so many things, and came into contact with so many workers, Chinese workers, Irish, and the abolitionist movement...... Why don't we write about these things?

So there is such a book "The Condition of the American Working Class", in this book, Li Mengyang mainly wrote about the problem of Chinese workers, why Chinese unions came to the United States, on the one hand, the oppression of the Qing government, on the other hand, the Taiping Movement, and the economic level, that is, the impact of 'foreign goods' on the traditional Chinese handicraft economy, that is, the destruction of the small peasant economy.

The most obvious is 'foreign cloth', many people actually don't know the reality of the old Chinese society, that is, the land problem, because most people are landless, land is too concentrated, which leads to the land rent is very high, which is so high that we can't imagine it now. In later generations, the Kuomintang defeated and retreated to Baodao, there was a '375 reform', that is, the land rent could not be higher than 37.5%, and the promoter of this reform, Chen Cheng, was called a big savior by the locals, that is to say, the previous land rent was definitely higher than this, much higher, and the whole old Chinese society was like this.

Because this '375 reform' is the first land reform of the People's Party, although the former premier's Three People's Principles have equal land rights, but it is a pity that they have never dared to touch the land for so many years.

So, so much grain has been taken away from farming, what do you have to rely on to subsidize your family? It relies on self-weaving, which is an important source of income for a family. In fact, this thing has been around since ancient times, and it has even formed a custom, such as the one who gets married, and wants to let the husband's family see his 'female popularity', because of what? In the past, the family was selling embroidery.

To put it bluntly, the old society family is actually also a 'dual-income'.

But as soon as the 'foreign cloth' comes in, it's over, this income is gone, and the foreign cloth is cheap!

This is an important factor, and an important factor in changing the whole Chinese society.

Li Mengyang naturally wrote about this, and mainly wrote about the contradictions between Chinese workers and workers of other ethnic groups, and why, as well as the deep-seated reasons in it, which are very profound social problems.

Of course, there are also some personal observations and personal analyses of the abolitionist movement, so Li Mengyang naturally used relatively complete and relevant theories of later generations.

I sent some manuscripts to Engels, and the result was interesting, according to Engels himself, he was a slap on the thigh at that time, and the writing was so good!

After all, Engels did not understand the reality of China, but he could know about the opening of commercial ports, the fact that China has a population of 400 million, and the vast territory of China. But what is the economic situation of Chinese society, what is the society really like, where does he know?

With this book by Clint Lee, then the whole world is complete, all connected, and a complete, world-wide economic and social system can be formed!

So, can a great teacher not slap his thigh?

So I came to meet Clint Lee, a great writer who is famous in Europe and the United States with a novel.

Isn't that good?

Li Mengyang had already met with Engels, and they also took a group photo, and the two chatted quite speculatively.

After that, Engels came to the United States, which can be regarded as a grand event in the literary and artistic circles, so many celebrities came, such as Thoreau, who was actually a utopian socialist, so he could naturally talk about it with Engels.

Engels regretted it, why didn't he bring his old partner Marx?

So why is it that Eleanor is receiving it now?

Just because of one thing, translation!

To put it simply, Li Mengyang's own book is easy to do, and he also wants to publish Engels's "The Condition of the British Working Class" in the United States.

This book that I knew would be a big seller, and now I have such a good chance? Aren't you going to do this business?

But there's a problem, a translation problem, the book is in German.

That's the case with Eleanor, who doesn't know Middle English, but she also knows some Old English. Many people don't know that Old English actually has something to do with German, which is quite big.
