The aftermath of the third volume is close to Paris

"Mr. Zhang, I heard that you gave up the opportunity to study in the United States and came to the United States instead?"

Situ Nan sat down, wiped his sweat, and looked at Zhang Bangxian as he was medium-sized, a little thin, with a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, clear eyes, and a middle-part hair, typical of an intellectual of the Republic of China.

"I didn't think too much about it at first, but I thought that the income from being a translator was good, and I also went to France to see it. If you don't come out, you don't know how big the world is outside! Zhang Bangxian sighed slightly.

The experience in France broadened his horizons, and he visited the major industrial regions of France and saw the power of the country's large-scale industrial production after the mobilization of the whole nation. This is true of France alone, not to mention countries such as Britain, Germany, and the United States, which are more powerful than France. Let some of this is incomparable in China.

"It's good to come out and take a look, recognize the gap, and work hard. Do your best! If you have difficulties, you can come to me. Situ Nan encouraged.

With his excellent role in assisting the French side in managing the Chinese Workers' Camp, Zhang Bang first got the opportunity to attend a university in France. This is what many people dream of, and it is also the reward of Zhang Bangxian's efforts.

Next, Situ Nan asked about the Chinese Workers' Camp, and Zhang Bang Xiangu replied one by one, he now knew that Situ Nan was the behind-the-scenes owner of the Chinese Workers' Camp when they sailed through Los Angeles, so he was very respectful to Situ Nan.

"I heard that Chinese workers are good at gambling and prostitution in France, and crowds often fight?" Situ Nan asked suddenly.

"Yes. The workers are not familiar with the French people and do not understand the language, so they usually get together and have nothing to do, and they will also participate in gambling. Mr. Stuart, you know, they don't have a lot of education. As for **, this is normal, there are many women living in France, they can only find foreigners, not only Chinese, but also Americans, British, Indians and blacks in their colonies. The workers were generous, so the French women flocked to it. ”

Speaking of this, Zhang Bangxian couldn't help but smile and remembered a certain good memory.

"Workers are in a foreign country, they don't understand the language, they don't know how to communicate, and sometimes they are bullied. These workers are all young and vigorous young people, and most of them are out of Shandong, where the people are fierce, so fights with blacks and Indians also occur from time to time. Zhang Bangxian sighed.

The problem of the Chinese workers' camp is more complicated, both due to the Chinese workers themselves and external reasons. There are many problems that are not understood, and the lack of communication leads to misunderstandings, and disputes also arise from this.

"What are you doing?" Situ Nan asked.

"It's all about education. We have received a lot of help, and international students in Europe and the United States have joined in, such as Li Jun, the 'Baogong Commissioner' of the French Consulate, Shi Yixuan, Yan Yangchu, Lin Yutang, Jiang Tinghuang, and so on, who later joined the Chinese workers' education work.

We have built a letter writing room, a grocery store, a lecture hall, an entertainment hall and other facilities in the service center of Chinese workers to enrich the spare time life of the workers, popularize the local customs of France and the knowledge of various nationalities to them, and enhance the knowledge of the workers.

Of course, the first priority of Chinese workers' education is patriotic education, and we take classes with workers to spread to them the general trend of the world, the future of the motherland, and open up their wisdom????? In short, there are a lot of troublesome things, but I think it is quite meaningful, and the hard work is worth it. ”

Zhang Bangxian smiled with relief after speaking, looked at Lin Yimin next to him, and couldn't help but exclaim: "A lot of our work can be carried out smoothly with the help of the Chinese volunteer group. ”

"I didn't expect Mr. Zhang to do so many things, it's really good!" Situ Nan nodded, looked at Zhang Bangxian with satisfaction, and asked, "By the way, what do you think of China's prospects at the Paris Peace Conference?" ”

Zhang Bang thought for a moment, frowned and said, "I'm not optimistic." Now Shandong is in the hands of the Japanese, and the Japanese are not easy to talk to. And our government is relatively easy to be controlled by others, and even if the Anglo-American law does not want to see Japan become bigger, it may not be willing to stand up for us, so the situation is worrying! I've heard that the Chinese diplomatic corps is now under pressure from both home and abroad, and hey, it's really an eventful time. ”

Zhang Bangxian sighed.

"So Shandong was given to the Japanese?" Situ Nan's eyes lit up, staring at Zhang Bangxian.

"Don't think! Shandong is ours, and the Japanese will not succeed! Zhang Bangxian looked at Situ Nan angrily, with an angry expression, how could he cede his hometown to the Japanese? Isn't the blood and sacrifice of the hundreds of thousands of workers in vain?

Firmly, he said, "We will not give in!" Never! Even if the Japanese succeed for a while, we will eventually stand up. ”

"Excellent! It is best to have such confidence and determination. Situ Nan clapped his hands, looked at the scholar in front of him who seemed to have great ability, and nodded secretly in his heart.

It was also the indignation of these intellectuals that ignited the anger of May Fourth and made a sleeping nation gradually wake up.

Sometimes things don't go as planned, but never lose confidence and don't give up on trying to become stronger, then there will always be a successful day.

Thinking of this, Situ Nan's heart flew to Paris, where a nation was torn open bloody wounds, and it was the pain in his heart that made people feel uplifted and awakened?????

Zhang Bangxian's mood has calmed down now. He was disappointed by the situation at home, so when the Nanyang Foundation invited him, he did not hesitate to agree. Although the Nanyang Foundation did not quite meet his wishes, Zhang Bangxian decided to take a circuitous path and do something for the country and the nation in another way.

At the very least, let his poor villagers in Weihaiwei, Shandong Province create a way to live. In addition to going to the Kanto, we can also go to the South Seas.

Well, the Yellow River has been diverted several times, and Shandong has suffered the most, and disasters have been repeated, so the people who have no way to survive can only desperately break into the eastern part of the country. In addition to going to the eastern part of the country, some people went to the British colony of South Africa to work, so the determination of the people in the coastal areas of Shandong to go out was not bad for Fujian and Guangdong.

Seeing that Zhang Bangxian was stunned, Situ Nan couldn't help asking, "Bangxian, what are you thinking?" ”

"Oh, nothing." Zhang Bang came back to his senses first, and then said: "Today's events are too much for Mr. Situ, otherwise Ah Xin can only go back crying." Zhang Bang first glanced at Dai Chuanxin on the basketball court.

"It's just a matter of effort." Situ Nan smiled, thinking that it was really interesting for Dai Chuanxin to think of hiding the Fa girl in the quilt and bringing it back, a very slippery boy, although he looked tall and honest.

"Is there a lot of this?" Situ Nan said again.

Zhang Bang thought for a while and replied, "It should be a lot." Now that the ratio of men and women in France is unbalanced, many workers are getting along with French women, but they either break up or settle in France. Because the French government does not allow French women to emigrate abroad on a large scale. It's the first time I've seen someone like Ah Xin. Hehe! ”

"What about you?" Situ Nan suddenly said a word, Zhang Bangxian's face quickly turned red, and he didn't spit out a word for a long time.

"Haha!" Situ Nan couldn't help but be very happy, and felt that this long-distance relationship was quite interesting. After a while, he asked, "How is the young man?" ”

"When I was in the Chinese workers' camp, I dared to stand up for the workers, I was affectionate and righteous, and my popularity was good. The mind is flexible and learns things quickly. is a filial son, I heard that there is an old mother at home?????? ”

Zhang Bang first told what he knew about Dai Chuanxin, and he could see that Situ Nan had a good impression of Dai Chuanxin.

"Hmm. Not bad. Situ Nandao thought: People who are most affectionate and filial are generally not bad people.

Situ Nan decided to temporarily take in Dai Chuanxin and Elaine.

After a half-day rest in Le Havre, in the afternoon, in the bright spring light, Situ Nant and his team changed to a small steamer and continued along the beautiful Seine River to Paris.

"Wow! Stoney, I see the Eiffel Tower! Laura excitedly pointed to the spire in the distance.

"Finally back in Paris, the Eiffel Tower, the Palace of Versailles, Notre Dame Cathedral, the Louvre, the Arc de Triomphe?????? I'm going to take a look at all of them, do you say, Stoney? Laura took Situ Nan's hand and began to imagine the scene of the two walking on Xiangsheli Avenue.

"Of course! We'll have a lot of time this time. Situ Nan replied with a smile.

There are so many places to go in Paris. There is no place in the world with as many monuments, art galleries, theaters, gardens, cafés as there is in Paris????? It's so artistic that it's unbeatable.

Perhaps it was the softness of the Seine that fostered the romantic passion of the French? Situ Nan suddenly thought of this sentence.

Like the dreamy Paris, the French have always played a unique role on the stage of a great power, no matter how the times change.

Now that the heads of the major powers are gathered in Paris, France is playing the role of European hegemon. In addition to the first time, there was also a large number of diplomatic missions gathered in Paris.

Inside the Chinese consulate, a heated debate is unfolding. Present at the meeting were Lu Zhengxiang, chief foreign minister of foreign affairs in Beijing, Shi Zhaoji, minister to Britain, Gu Weijun, minister to the United States, Wei Chengu, minister to Belgium, and Wang Zhengting from Guangzhou.

The Chinese diplomatic corps came to Paris in high spirits, but from the very beginning it was given a cold reception by Britain, France, and other countries, and put forward eight conditions of hope to the Paris Peace Conference:

Abolish spheres of influence

Evacuate the foreign ** team and patrol police

Abolish foreign post offices and wire-based wireless telegraphy agencies

Revocation of consular jurisdiction

Return of the leased land

Return of the concession

The right to tariff freedom

Repeal of "Article 21"

However, today's conference responded that the Chinese delegates hoped that none of the eight motions would be discussed! To the frustration of the crowd, the five sat in the conference room in silence.

"I can see that all foreign powers are on the same foot. Are we the victorious powers? How can there be such a victorious country? ”

Wang Zhengting, the representative of the south, suddenly slapped the table and said angrily. These words expressed everyone's thoughts, and everyone had nowhere to vent their grief and anger in their hearts.

"Ahem." Seeing that the meeting was cold, Lu Zhengxiang, the head of the delegation, knocked on his crutches and said: "If scolding can solve the problem, then just scold!" Let's dissipate our anger and figure out how to fight for the interests of the country! ”

In the end, Lu Zhengxiang set a tone for this meeting, he was not in good health, and many times he could only hand over the work to the other four deputies.

"There is no point in discussing the Eight Articles of Hope now. I think the most important issue at the moment is the Shandong issue. The difficulties in this regard are relatively great, and it is impossible for our opponents, the Japanese, to give up Shandong lightly. ”

Gu Weijun spoke.

That's the old way! At this conference, his performance was remarkable, and his diplomatic talent was recognized by everyone.
