On the territory of the Democratic Alliance, not only the teaching materials used by children came from Wang Feng, but also some professional departments, such as the Ordnance Bureau, the Military Academy, and popular science education in the army, which did bring problems.

Rong Hong's voiceover refers to the lack of gradual accumulation of knowledge in the teaching materials of the Democratic Alliance, and also restricts the space for students to use their imagination, to put it bluntly, it can be used as a crash manual for the training of technicians, and the talents cultivated in this way often know what they do, and they can engage in technical work in a certain industry, but it is almost impossible to train top scientists.

The most important thing for scientists is not hands-on ability, but imagination and reasoning ability, because China's scientific knowledge is blank, Wang Feng is forced by the status quo, and needs a large number of quick talents, so he can only carry out cramming education for children, although it will bring all kinds of undesirable consequences, but this is also a helpless thing.

At the same time, compiling textbooks requires patience and is also a technical task, if you give a few years, maybe Wang Feng can compile textbooks that meet modern requirements, but what he lacks most is time, so it is not surprising that the textbooks compiled have zài problems.

As a modern science and engineering student, only from the aspect of knowledge, Wang Feng is still very dissatisfied with the level of science and engineering in Europe and the United States, but Rong Hong's reminder is very reasonable, China can not only rely on technicians, the future development still needs a large number of scientists to engage in basic scientific research, and the educational environment in Europe and the United States can inspire people's imagination and thinking ability, which is what he values most, as for how much knowledge he can learn, he doesn't care too much.

After thinking about it, Wang Feng nodded and said, "It's okay." However, it is necessary to enter science and engineering universities as much as possible, and engineering disciplines such as bridge construction, geological exploration, and financial law are preferred. As for Western literature, history, and religious art, I think it's okay. These subjects are of little use in China, and it is a waste of time to learn, if you can spare time, you can arrange it as much as possible, and I will ask Deputy Commander Hong to cooperate with you, come, while it is still early, you can tell me about New York, and I plan to build Baoshan into a modern city. See if there's any experience to draw on."

"The city of New York is a paradise for capitalists, a paradise for adventurers, and a hell for the poor," Rong Hong immediately became interested and talked endlessly about what he had seen and heard in New York.

At that time, houses in New York were generally three- to five-story tube buildings, and the main roads were six lanes according to modern standards, with sidewalks on both sides. Rail steam buses mingled with horse-drawn carriages, some rode horses, and kerosene lamps were used for lighting on the roadside, even on the Hudson River. A steel bridge with a span of several hundred meters has been built!

Of course, there is a bright side, but there is also a dark side. New York is not well developed, and there are not many shops along the street. And all of them are small, and their sweatshops and slums are also shocking. The whole city was not properly organized, factories were built everywhere, and the city was full of chimneys and thick black smoke wafted over the city.

Many white people who couldn't get along in Europe made it to the United States, where they had to go to sweatshops for meager wages, sleep in a dozen or so people, and couldn't find a job, rummaging through the garbage bins for food and sleeping on the streets became their only option.

Every month in the cold winter, there will be a large number of people on the street who are frozen to death, and violent cases constitute a beautiful scenery in New York, robbery, murder, forcible ~~ rape, gangsters, all the time, if you can't hear gunshots one day, this is an abnormal phenomenon.

Relatively speaking, although there are almost no modern facilities in Suzhou, but no one sleeps on the streets, no matter how poor the people are, they have food and a house to sleep, the factory owners are influenced by Confucian culture, and the treatment of hired workers is generally not too harsh, the underworld organizations and idle people are all forcibly recruited into the army by the Democratic Alliance, the roadside shops are lined up, the commercial atmosphere is strong, and the efficient government manages the city in an orderly manner, presenting a peaceful and positive atmosphere!

Wang Feng is only allowed to set up light industries that are not very polluting in the urban area, and no industrial facilities are allowed to be opened in the vicinity of some scenic spots such as Tiger Hill, and the rest of the heavily polluting factories, such as textiles, papermaking, cement, medicine, etc., are all concentrated in the development zones outside the city to ensure a livable environment in the urban area as much as possible.

Compared with developed cities in Europe and the United States, Suzhou has no homicides, few serious cases, good social security, friendly and harmonious people, small bridges and flowing water in the city, blue sky and white clouds, full of a lot of opportunities to make money, living in such an environment, it is difficult not to keep a happy mood.

Due to the lack of entry and exit management system and nationality system, at present, foreigners come and go freely on the territory of the Democratic Alliance, as long as they do not cause trouble, do not sell ~~ drugs, do not proselytize, do not spy on intelligence, the government and the army will not drive away, and those who have made outstanding contributions will be treated politely, no wonder there are many foreigners who refuse to leave in Suzhou!

Rong Hong said happily, Wang Feng also listened to it happily, and before he knew it, the time was close to noon.

Wang Feng looked at the clock and greeted: "Since you have become a member of the government, I will not entertain you specially, just have a light meal, and I will arrange a place for you in the afternoon." ”

"Thank you, Commander-in-Chief, then." After a morning of getting along, Rong Hong basically figured out Wang Feng's personality, and his sense of restraint was much less.

Wang Feng was about to ask the guards to bring lunch, when the guards had already appeared at the door and reported: "Commander-in-Chief, Sir Robertson, the British consul in Shanghai, wants to see him. ”

'Huh? It's still here in the end. A smile appeared on the corner of Wang Feng's mouth, and he called, "Please let him in." ”

"Yes!" The guard turned and walked away.

"Commander-in-Chief, why don't I avoid it first?" Rong Hong turned his gaze to Wang Feng.

"No need." Wang Feng waved his hand and said, "You can stay and listen, at least you can have an understanding of our basic foreign policy." ”

"Yes!" Rong Hong bowed his hand.

It didn't take long for a middle-aged Englishman in a top hat to come into view, apparently the new British consul Robertson.

Robertson knew that dealing with Wang Feng was tricky, especially how to negotiate with Wang Feng, he was not sure, so he decided to take a look at the situation with the intention of delaying, he expected that the Democratic Alliance would not abuse the British prisoners.

It's just that although the Democratic Alliance Army did not abuse the British prisoners, they hired a large number of British prisoners and gave them rich rewards, and the British were only ordered to attack the Democratic Alliance Army, and they did not have any hatred for the Chinese, and the Democratic Alliance Army continued to promote Sino-British friendship from top to bottom, and repeatedly highlighted the compulsion of their counterattack, which also diluted the psychological rejection of the British army in a considerable way.

Last year's history almost repeated, and this time there were more people, except for Whish, Lambert and other senior officers and some soldiers with a relatively solid net worth out of various scruples, rejected the employment of the Democratic Alliance, most of the ordinary soldiers and junior officers expressed their willingness to accept the hiring, so more than 1,000 British entered the factory and the Ordnance Bureau to take charge of the guidance work, and even British soldiers and sailors guided the soldiers to drive the warship out of the Yangtze River estuary for actual exercises, which made the young Democratic Alliance Navy like a treasure!

You must know that warships are easy to build, experience is hard to find, the British Navy has hundreds of years of ocean-going history, and this precipitation alone is a rich treasure, and China has actually no navy since Zheng He went to the Western Ocean, and he has to start from scratch!

For the navy's exercise at sea, on the one hand, it is to ensure absolute control, on the other hand, the British soldiers are paid by the day, two pounds a day, under the lure of high salaries, the British teach everything, from ship operation, maintenance, to sea emergency drills, to live ammunition shooting, to fixed targets, mobile targets!

The soldiers also knew that this was an instructor hired with gold, and they cherished it very much, especially since Chen Cun himself had experience in driving a small wooden boat to the sea to fight, and his technical and tactical level was improving by leaps and bounds every day.

In this form, Robertson couldn't sit still, he finally understood Ali Guo's advice, who can eat the hired captives? can only take the initiative to visit Wang Feng.

Wang Feng sat upright, his face was calm, and Rong Hong sat below, his eyes were blazing, and it was clear that it was not easy to speak, Robertson suddenly felt that his scalp was numb, took off his top hat, and bowed slightly: "Her Majesty the Queen of England in Shanghai, Robertson, has seen Mr. Wang Feng." ”

Wang Feng nodded slightly: "Mr. Robertson, what are you doing here today?" ”

Robertson scolded, isn't this knowingly asking? But still according to the predetermined plan, his face sank and said: "On behalf of the British government, I make representations about the bad behavior of your army breaking into the concession to murder Wu Jianzhang's family and robbing the property of women. ”

If Robertson didn't mention it, Wang Feng forgot about it, and couldn't help but look at Rong Hong, and then waved his hand: "There is nothing to explain about this matter, traitors and traitors will be punished, if Mr. Robertson only came for this matter, then I think there is no need to talk to us, please speak out." ”

Wang Feng looked domineering, Robertson was very annoyed in his heart, as a British diplomat, when had he ever been so slighted, but there was no way, he was stronger than people, it was he who was eager to negotiate with Wang Feng, not Wang Feng looking for him.

Taking a few breaths and barely suppressing his anger, Robertson said with a straight face: "I hope that you will release the captured British officers and soldiers and return all the ships, and we are willing to make certain compensation, and can submit to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to sign a peace agreement with you." ”

"Hahahaha~~" As if hearing the funniest joke in the world, Wang Feng couldn't help laughing, and asked with a smile for a long time: "Mr. Robertson, don't you think your request is ridiculous?" As the loser, you should put down your posture and show a posture of sincerity to solve the problem. ”

"Mr. Wang Feng, you are too much!" Robertson's arrogant anger surged again, and he glared at Wang Feng angrily. (To be continued......) R1292
