"Look at the newspaper, read the newspaper. "The Burning of the Old Summer Palace" crew casting ......"

"Look at the newspaper, read the newspaper, the emperor rebuilt the Old Summer Palace......"

In the middle of summer, in Shanghai, the scorching sun is shining, and many people either go to work or hide at home, and even small traders and vendors are hiding in the shade of the building at noon. Only these 'work-study' newsboys are still shouting along the streets in the scorching sun.

They must have been hot too, but no one complained. Being able to go to school for free, eat free lunches at the Hope School with first-class teachers, use free books, homework books and pencils, and even provide scholarships for gifted students, just ask them to do what they can during the Saturday and Sunday holidays, and no child complains. The children of the poor are in charge of their families at an early age, and these newsboys all know how hard-won opportunities are.

There are millions of people in Shanghai, hundreds of thousands of school-age children, and at least 100,000 poor students, but there are only six hope schools. Each hope school has two classes for one age, and the standard class has 50 students, while only two of the six schools are connected to junior high schools, and one is connected to high schools, and the same age has two classes, and the standard 50 students in each class are only 3,900 students, which is too small and too small compared to the number of 100,000. The opportunity to get into Hope School is too precious, too precious.

Now there is no one in Shanghai who does not know the Hope School. Every time the city takes the joint examination, I hope that the school will have excellent results. After all, the teachers are good, and the students are willing to work hard, and the results will naturally be excellent. As for the social work class, the students of these hope schools are all excellent, and compared with other students of the same age, what they lack is only talent. But when you go to university, talent doesn't matter at all. Scoring comes first!

There is no child in Shanghai who does not know about the Hope School, and because he knows the Hope School, he will come out to work on these Sundays. Shanghainese people are generally very caring.

Today, this group of students from the Hope School who sell newspapers are particularly busy, because Shanghai is a place where the newspaper industry is developed, and the per capita consumption of newspapers ranks first in the country, which is even higher than Beijing. These student paperboys generally bought newspapers faster than the newsstands, and they were catching up with the big news. The emperor is going to rebuild the Old Summer Palace.

As soon as the news came out, it was bound to be a national uproar.

The whole of Shanghai is now talking about many people who have not bought newspapers. After hearing the news, I had to buy a copy and read it. I only heard people say, how can I see the comments with my own eyes! So today's little newsboys are destined to be very busy!

The Old Summer Palace is an eternal pain in the hearts of Chinese. But at the same time, the fire also made the Old Summer Palace synonymous with 'luxury' and 'magnificence' in the hearts of the Chinese people.

As soon as the five words of rebuilding the Old Summer Palace jumped in the minds of the Chinese people, they immediately reminded everyone of the word 'extravagance'. In particular, the British have just built a super dreadnought-class battleship, which has dealt a big blow to the confidence of the Chinese people. At this stall, the emperor wants to rebuild the Old Summer Palace, and no matter how you look at it, you feel that there is a feeling that the emperor is unreliable.

And Liu Xian's image has always been an Everest-like existence in the hearts of the subjects of the whole country. His immense influence and incomparable exploits have completely deified his image. Just like the image of Taizu of the Red Dynasty in the hearts of the Chinese people in that era, His Majesty the Emperor, who was completely deified, suddenly did such an inappropriate thing, and the contrast was too great. There is a feeling of image collapse, which is unacceptable to the people of the whole country for a while.

"You have to look at things in two ways. The Chinese people will not accept it for a while, but will this really affect me? Will it affect my royal family? "zn nautical miles. Liu Xian is educating his son. Now the Germans are going to rise up, and the British have passed the Navy Budget Bill, which is to blow up the warships. What is China doing in the first place? is about to taoguang to cultivate obscurity, Liu Xian can't wait to put a passer-by on his Chinese name!

"As long as the British see it in their eyes, the Germans see it in their eyes, and the entire Western world sees it in their eyes, our China will be even more ambitious in the future." Although Liu Xian also knows. His trick may not be able to hide from many people, but it is an attitude. China is making its own stance. If Germany and Britain could agree, the pressure on China would be greatly reduced. After all, before the outbreak of World War I, none of the two major military blocs thought that the war could be fought so tragically and for a long time.

In the original time and space, the French and Germans were singing songs and rushing to the battlefield in high spirits. Neither of them believed that the war would be a protracted massacre. Everyone thought it would be a heroic, brave and short march!

The German government said: "The war will end quickly!" "They grossly overestimated their fighting power, believing that the war would be as smooth and short as it was in 1870. On the train transporting the German soldiers it was written: 'Go to Paris for breakfast. A bayonet to pick a Frenchman to death'. As a result, a month and a half into the war, the Germans depleted their entire ammunition reserves.

The French were equally optimistic, looking forward to the repossession of Alsace and Lorraine, with the words 'Come Home for Christmas' written on French troop trains, and countless French soldiers singing the "La Marseillaise". Gleefully departing from the train station, "with flowers on the tip of a gun" and a smile on his face, he dismissed the war as 'an exhilarating trip from Paris to Berlin'. As a result, the 'power' of Miss Qiwu's cannonballs far exceeded the imagination of the French, and less than three months after the start of the war, the French thought that they had absolutely sufficient ammunition reserves were exhausted.

It was a tragedy that no one could have predicted. The hegemony in the hands of the Europeans was given to the Americans from the day of the war. But compared with the United States, which was almost harmless to humans and animals before World War I, and compared with the United States, which is also a white-skinned God civilization, today's China is obviously a man-devouring tiger! Even if Liu Xian is 'pretentious' again, in the eyes of Westerners, he is just a tiger lying in the wilderness and a latent minions.

Now that history has completely changed, the pattern of world wars has changed again and again, especially the war of 1894, which has taught the whole of Europe what is called a total war. How much was the loss of the war of annihilation? China, the United States, and Tsarist Russia have taught the whole of Western Europe and Central Europe a good lesson with their own endings. Liu Xian didn't think that when the British, German and French countries really broke out into war, they would be so happy. If the First World War of this time and space breaks out as scheduled, the process will definitely be different from the previous life.

It's just that these are all placed at the national level, how many ordinary people really understand politics? More self-thought!

"How can this be true? How can the emperor be slandered by the small people?! It's hateful and annoying. I ......" A middle-aged man in his forties slapped the table, and the tea cups on the tea table were shaken and rolled to the ground, but before the cruel words could be released, the middle-aged man was gagged by the two companions on the side. One dragged the middle-aged man out, and the other paid for tea.

"Why did Mr. Jidao stop me? Such ignorant people...... "The middle-aged man was definitely a big fan of Emperor Liu, and he was indignant at the harsh remarks in the teahouse.

"Learn to ride my brother. Why bother with these small people? How can these people know that His Majesty is painstaking, but they are just the same people. Sun Wen said behind his back with a smile. Yan Fu Yan and Yu Hangzhang learned to ride, all of which were his best friends in Beijing for many years. The former was one of the most influential thinkers, translators, and educators of his time. The legendary experience of 20 years of naval trials and hardships has put on a dazzling halo for him. In China now, soldiers are the most worthy of worship and respect. As for Zhang Xuecheng, although he is not very old, he is an absolute master of Chinese studies, and he is currently the deputy dean of the School of Literature of Beijing Normal University. Although he is not involved in politics, he has published many articles, and his editorials are sharp and piercing, and he has great appeal among young and middle-aged people.

However, China, which has not experienced the years of foreign bullying in the late Qing Dynasty, after the disappearance of the ancient group of literati and ink writers, the group of cultural people, who inherited the mantle of the former, reappeared and occupied part of the folk discourse. These 'cultural people' do not pay as much attention to 'waking up' the people as the pioneers after the New Culture Movement in the original time and space, but are telling the people something in a 'teacher' attitude. Between the two, there is no sense of 'mission' given by history, but there is a sense of superiority. Zhang Xuecheng is one of the representatives, and such people are the objects that many politicians are keen to befriend.

The attitudes of Yan Fu, Zhang Xuecheng, and Sun Wen also represent the unwavering support of the Chinese elite for the emperor.

After the last war, China has gained too many benefits, and it has not yet digested them. When it comes to domestic sentiment and needs, China has no urgency or reason to start a war. Just like the boss of the HEI gang who came to power in the infighting, no one wants the situation to be stable, because he has enough, and let him risk losing everything to fight, can the strength of the tenth layer be used to use the seventh layer?

As long as China develops steadily and steadily, Britain will not have the courage to fight again in 20 years. Backed by the basic needs of the entire Chinese [Central North America] market, to what extent will China's industry and economy develop?

Moscow's First Five-Year Plan has been completed, and the Second Five-Year Plan has been going on for two years. After a few years, this hungry beast will come out of its cage, and based on the impression of the Red Empire in his previous life, Liu Xian is willing to believe that Moscow will really win the war with St. Petersburg. If Britain, France, Germany and Austria want to really fight, this will give Moscow the best chance.

But this assumption is unrealistic. The war in this time and space cannot be delayed until the end of Moscow's Third Five-Year Plan, and Britain, France, and Germany will not be able to wait that long. Britain and Germany have already begun to blow up ships with all their might, and in this way, at most, in five years, the two countries will have to start a war. Because a new round of economic crisis has broken out in Europe, the British and Germans are building ships so hard, not to endorse this renewed economic crisis. And at this time, the Germans always looked at the British with red eyes. The importance of colonies is also even more important in times of economic crisis! (To be continued.) )
