Chapter 448: Fame is dry
Russell also asked Bush why he gambled with his life, and Wang Feng's answer was very offensive: The doctors in London, France, Austria, and Prussia are not good, it does not mean that he can't, he is confident that he can get the 100,000 pounds, and finally calls on all sectors of society to pay attention to the miserable situation of the workers and dedicate a love to the workers!
On the morning of the third day, when the newspaper was released, the whole city was in an uproar, Bush became famous overnight, and everyone was talking about it!
Not to mention capital, bankers and aristocrats, even ordinary citizens do not support Wang Feng, after all, most of the low-level workers in London come from Scotland, Wales and Ireland, and the racial discrimination in Britain at that time was very strict, not only discriminating against Chinese, Arabs, blacks, Americans, Indians, Southeast Asians, but also people from these three places.
The English people thought that the workers behaved rudely, made loud noises, were rude and despicable, were inherently despicable, and had no gentlemanly manners, and that a bite of food was a gift from the noble Englishmen.
However, as a result of this report, Dr. Bush's popularity among the workers rose instantly, and he faintly overshadowed the two giants of the workers' association, Harney and Jones.
The Chartist movement was divided into three phases, the first led by the moderate Lovett, and the second and third led by the agitator O'Connell.
During the Third Chartist Movement in 1848, the Chartists decided to hold a mass meeting in London, which was followed by demonstrations. When the aristocracy and the bourgeoisie learned of the news, they mobilized a large number of military and police in advance to prepare for suppression. At this critical juncture, O'Connell faltered. A month later, the government ordered the dissolution of the Chartist organization, and the National Assembly rejected the Chartist petition for the third time at the same time.
Although since 1848. The Chartist left, led by Harney and Jones, tried to revive the Chartist movement and put forward a programme of socialist revolution in 1851, but it was finally lost in three successive defeats of the Chartist movement, and gradually disappeared, and now the workers seem to see hope again!
In the medical community, the condemnation of Bush can be described as verbal and written, which is a blatant contempt, and many doctors are linked together. I want to watch Bush undergo surgery the next day and see what kind of skills this Yankee has and dares to speak out!
All of a sudden, Bush's name became the focus of London!
There is an ordinary apartment in London's West End with mottled walls. The few pieces of furniture that are scattered are also very old, but compared to the workers in the East End. The living environment is obviously a world of difference, at least this is a suite. There are only four people living in one bedroom and one living room.
In the living room, a middle-aged woman is coaxing two little girls about ten years old to eat breakfast. In the bedroom, a bearded middle-aged man was eating black bread while reading the newspaper, and suddenly exclaimed, "Could it be that the Fourth Chartist Movement is about to begin?" ”
"Carl, what did you say?" The middle-aged woman asked.
The bearded man named Carl handed over the newspaper and said, "My dear Yanni, come and see, this is an interview with Dr. Bush." ”
"Little Yanni, Laura, eat by yourselves, don't be naughty!" Yanni admonished, went into the room, picked up the newspaper and read it.
It didn't take long for Yanni to put down the newspaper and ask, "Do you want to secretly contact this Bush?" But don't forget, a few years ago, you and Feng supported Harney and Jones and helped them build a socialist program, but these two people did not succeed, not only could not mobilize the workers, but also caused us to be stung by the British government, if we were expelled again this time, I am afraid that Europe is so big that there is no place for us, so I suggest that you observe first to see what kind of person this Bush is, maybe he has no intention of launching a revolution, but he is more kind-hearted. ”
"Hmm~~" Carl nodded slowly: "What you said makes a lot of sense, then I'll write a letter to Feng first and tell him what is happening in London." ”
Yanni brought pen and paper, and Carl wrote on the spot, and while he was writing the letter, Victoria also learned about Bush from the newspaper, turned to ask, "My dear Albert, what do you think of this man?" ”
"He reminds me of Jesus, who did the same when he was preaching," Albert said, "a man who is dangerous, and who may create a new religion that will overturn our existing order, and bring Britain and the Continent back to a time of chaos, or at least a fourth workers' movement."
Dear Victoria, do you remember what happened six years ago? The factory owners transferred their property abroad, the aristocracy fled London, the market was depressed, the streets were full of exuberant workers, and the losses were extremely severe, but O'Connell had the handle in our hands and was forced to order the disbandment of the marching workers.
Unexpectedly, after six years, there are signs of workers being instigated, and this time it will be even more dangerous, because our soldiers are fighting against Russia in Crimea, and if there is turmoil in London, it will affect the war ahead, and even lead to a total rout, and the consequences will be unimaginable, so in any case, this Bush cannot be allowed to make trouble. ”
Victoria was deeply surprised, and said coldly: "If he is Jesus, I am Pilate, the governor of the Roman Empire of Judah, who executed Jesus, should we arrest him immediately?" Charged with extortion? ”
"No!" Albert hesitated for a moment, then shook his head and said: "Bush's request for 100,000 pounds of medical expenses from Pied cannot be regarded as extortion, although this in fact constitutes extortion, but Bush is not obliged to treat Pied's illness, the reward of 100,000 pounds is agreed upon by both parties, and Bush is at the cost of his life, so this can also be regarded as a gamble, and we have no right to terminate the gambling contract."
Moreover, Bush is still a social philanthropist, and it seems that he has not incited the workers to do anything, and his hasty arrest may bring about adverse effects.
I think that Bush should be allowed to treat Pied, and if Pied is not cured, Bush will have to lose his life according to the covenant, and it will also deal a blow to his reputation, which is obviously the best outcome, but if a miracle happens, we"
Albert took a cigarette and took a few puffs slowly, then said: "We should keep a close eye on Bush, look for his stains, buy as much as we can, and if not, lobby the parliament to pass a decree to rectify the medical profession, prosecute him for illegal medical practice, or expel him from the country!"
