"Yes, I am not worried about the great revolution of the proletariat." Scrooge said seriously, "Because I think the United States still lacks the foundation for this kind of revolution." ”

"American Exceptionalism?" Marx laughed, "I have heard this argument countless times from religious and bourgeois moralists. But the process by which you came to this conclusion may be a little interesting, because although our goals are different, we look at things from a very similar perspective. Tell us what you think. ”

"Well," Scrooge said, "the United States has vast tracts of uncultivated land, and the government doesn't have a lot of control, unlike in Prussia, where the Junkers could easily take the mountains and forests that were originally owned by the public and make those who picked up branches in the mountains and forests become thieves." So in the United States, it is very difficult for the capitalists to exploit the free workers to the point where they are like in Europe, because if the life of the workers is too miserable, they can simply go to the west and become farmers on their own. This is one of the reasons why American industry has been suppressed by Europe. The cost in Europe is so low, their wages are so low, that their workers are still cheaper than ours, even if they cost freight and are shipped across the Atlantic. Well, from this point of view, any victory of the European proletariat is a good thing for us.

And in order for the government to become more controllable, it is necessary to build a very strong 6th Army. It's a good idea, but it's too expensive to maintain such a strong government for a long time. You must know that the United States now has only 6 troops of less than 60,000 people, but it is enough to suppress the resistance of the proletariat at home. And if the oppression of workers is to be raised to European standards, then the standards of the army, the police, prisons, and the like must also be raised to European standards. It doesn't take a small amount of money, and that money can only come from taxes. In this way, a large part of the profits from the increase in oppression are offset. It would be better to raise tariffs, at least in the short term, than to build a strong European-style government. Well, of course it's bad for the South, and those slave owners will definitely be against. But it was certainly far less difficult and costly in the long run to overthrow the slave owners in the South than it was to establish a strong government and constantly suppress the workers with high-handed means.

In addition, our government was able to alleviate class tensions by constantly attacking, and even exterminating, the Indians, by depriving them of their land and wealth. Of course, the unopened land is not unlimited, and there will definitely be a day when the Indians will be basically killed, and there will be a time when the land in their hands will be basically stripped away. By that time, there will be no difference between the United States and Europe. But it will take time, even generations. Before that, I was not at all worried that the American proletariat would rise up and make a revolution. Mr. Marx, in the United States, because the workers are prone to guns in their hands and the government is relatively weak, it will always seem relatively easy to resist, but the urgency for the American workers to overthrow the rule of the bourgeoisie and establish their own power is far less than that of the proletariat in Europe. Therefore, I think that the center of gravity of the proletarian revolution is still in Europe. ”

"There is some truth in interpreting the 'American exceptionalism' from this perspective." Marx said, "But the proletariat in North America is also being exploited and oppressed. This is also an indisputable fact. Perhaps, as you said, the time is not yet ripe for the proletariat to overthrow the bourgeois regime in North America and establish a real democratic state, but the organization of the proletariat to resist oppression is of great significance both for promoting the consciousness of the proletarian revolutionary consciousness and for improving the social status of the proletariat. Therefore, we will not relax our attention and support for the struggle of the American proletariat. ”

"Of course. I understand and support this very much. Scrooge said.

"Because you hope that the revolutionary actions of the proletariat will help you fight your rivals."

"Not bad. Also, Mr. Marx. My business can be used as a benchmark for workers to fight for their own interests for the time being. You must know that my company is one of the few companies that implements an 8-hour work week and has a 'conscience'. Scrooge said.

"The conscience of the capitalists." Marx smiled, with a hint of sarcasm in his smile.

"Yes, the 'conscience of the capitalists.'" Scrooge also laughed cheekily.

……

Early the next morning, Scrooge arrived at the train station in a carriage provided by Prince Albert and boarded the train to Cambridge. Cambridge is located more than 90 kilometers from London and is the second oldest university in the UK. It is also the second oldest university in the English-speaking world. It remains one of the best universities in the world until the 21st century. If universities are ivory towers, then the University of Cambridge is the tip of ivory. In the original time and space, since its establishment in 12o9, to the beginning of the twenty-first century, Cambridge University has produced a full 9o winners of the Dynamite Award, ranking first in the world. Elsewhere, dynamite prize winners are already tall and tall, but at Cambridge, 9o dynamite prize winners are not its proudest place. What makes it most proud is that on his campus, there have been some real masters (compared to these masters, the so-called 'masters' who are talked about by fans of the Republic of China don't know how bad they are, and the gap between them may be bigger than Chongyang, the first king in the world in "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", and Song Bingjia, who was practiced by Mei Feng. ）。

Among Cambridge alumni, the most famous is definitely Newton. Newton's three laws in physics were proposed by this "encyclopedic generalist" with an IQ of 18o, which established the foundation of modern physics, and calculus, which he was known in mathematics, created another important branch in addition to algebra and geometry - mathematical analysis. Even in the field of economics, this master has an excellent performance, and the "gold standard" system that has influenced human history for hundreds of years was proposed by Newton.

Another famous master is Charles Darwin, the author of "On the Origin of Species" that shook the world's scientific and philosophical circles. In addition, Maxwell, who founded the theory of electromagnetism, and Bacon, who has been called "the true ancestor of the whole modern science of reality", also graduated from Cambridge University.

To give a lecture at such a university, in the words of the Chinese, is quite a bit of a class axe. Scrooge also understands that many people are not convinced by the honor he has achieved now. Especially since I'm an American. Just as many Americans don't like the British, the British don't like the Americans. In particular, I am tired of the fact that Americans always label themselves as beacons of freedom, and stick adjectives such as greedy, evil, and murderous to Britain. If it weren't for the fact that all the ideas in my paper could be rigorously proven, I don't know how many people would have jumped out against their own views. But even if they could not deny the arguments in "The Causes of Some Infectious Diseases and the Therapeutic Effect of Certain Chemicals on Their Effects", which are supported by rigorous logic and reproducible realities, they still attack him from other angles. Some people say, Scrooge? MacDonald is not the true author of "A Study of the Causes of Some Infectious Diseases and the Therapeutic Effects of Certain Chemicals." (This is a common trick, and to this day, there are still people who believe that Shakespeare was not written by Shakespeare, but by someone else; And "The Quiet Don" was picked up by Sholokhov on the battlefield, and the real author was an unknown officer of the White Army. ）

Others turn to Schooge without being able to question academically the "study of the causes of some infectious diseases and the therapeutic effects of certain chemicals on them"? MacDonald's Character. (Although Scrooge's character is indeed not very good) so all kinds of rumors popped up, what Scrooge secretly bought a large number of black slaves in order to develop medicines, he established a death research institute codenamed 731 on a small island near the United States, tormenting countless black people. He also gave the blacks the code name "Logs." What else did Scrooge's first fortune rely on as a prostitute for a certain millionaire, what Scrooge's father was a counterfeiter, what...... And so on and so forth, and so on, and so on, and so on, and so

Under these circumstances, Scrooge could almost imagine that when he went to Cambridge to give lectures, those people would not take the opportunity to take advantage of him. Well, for example, arrange some people to come up with all kinds of difficult problems to test themselves or something. Of course, if it's too difficult and too perverted, not only will Scrooge never be able to do it, but even the topics they can't do don't have to worry about. Because even if such a topic can't be done, it doesn't mean that he is a parallel import.

However, Scrooge still has some confidence in himself, and with the current level of science in Europe, it is not difficult to make a mathematical problem difficult for him, so that he can't solve it for half a day. But the field in which he achieved his achievements was not as demanding on mathematics as physics and the like. So even if these people stumped him mathematically, it didn't make much of a difference to his position in the fields of chemistry and microbiology. Therefore, if someone wants to test themselves, the chances of having problems with chemistry and microbiology are probably the highest. However, Scrooge felt that the level of chemistry and microbiology in this era should not be able to stump him.

Compared with the high-speed trains of later generations, the trains of this era can be said to be as slow as snails crawling. On average, it's about 30 kilometers. But at the time, it was very fast. It is said that Queen Victoria took the train for the first time, and after the train reached 30 kilometers per hour, the queen was so nervous that she turned pale and almost fainted. From London to Cambridge, the journey is less than a hundred kilometers and takes nearly four hours. So much so that Scrooge had to have lunch in the car. By the time Scrooge arrived, it was already about one o'clock in the afternoon.
