There is a famous saying in later generations: The two most difficult things in the world are to put one's own thoughts into other people's heads, and the other is to put other people's money into one's own pocket.

Sun Yuanqi thought to himself that he did not have the ability to persuade others to agree with his views in a short period of time. Since Liang Qichao stubbornly believes that China needs an emperor, he is unwilling to compete with him, and let him go. After all, it's rare to see each other once, so why make everyone unhappy about it? Of course, Liang Qichao did not make a special trip to Sun Yuanqi to promote his idea of an enlightened monarchy, so he couldn't raise the bar for this, so both of them took a step back, avoided this topic, and talked about what they had seen and heard about the journey, but they were also happy.

Liang Qichao looked for Sun Yuanqi, in addition to a small gathering of friends, he also asked him to bring some letters and items to the book and China.

This is also the meaning of the question. In China's thousands of years of history, it has been a common practice to entrust acquaintances returning to their hometowns to bring things back. In the past, it was a civilian post office that did not send parcels, so it had to rely on this kind of interpersonal relationship. At the end of the Qing Dynasty, there was a post office, and everyone's habits could not be changed for a while. And the post office has such and such drawbacks, which is really unreassuring, and Sun Yuanqi, who has experienced two kinds of service treatment in ancient and modern times, has more feelings:

First of all, the delivery speed of the letter is too slow, if you send a letter from Shanghai to Beijing, and then leave, you are guaranteed to arrive in Beijing, the letter has not yet arrived:

Secondly, the postage is too expensive, and the most ordinary letters of a few pages cost 20 yuan, you know, Kong Yijiwen two bowls of wine, a plate of fennel beans is only nine dollars! If you are overweight, it is even worse, the "Regulations of the Great Qing Postal Bureau" formulated by the General Post Office in the 25th year of Guangjie clearly stipulates that if it weighs 12 taels (i.e. 1 pound), it should pay 64 cents of silver (i.e. 6 jiao 4 cents)":

Again, large items, things that are inconvenient to transport, the post office does not accept:

Fourth, valuables must not be handed over to the post office, the loss rate is too high:

Fifth, private letters cannot be sent by the post office, and the postman may know the news before you. The letter has not yet reached you. The message has reached your ears;

。。。。。。

Liang Qichao wants to carry things, in addition to letters and items, the most are manuscripts. As mentioned earlier, he founded the "Xinmin Cong Newspaper" in Yokohama, which is published twice a month, and as the editor-in-chief and the most important contributor, how can each issue be without his articles? At this time, there is no QQ, email to transmit, and there is no FedEx that must reach the mission. Arriving the next day? Now the Wright brothers are playing with models!

Even in the United States, if you want to send a manuscript to the book, you have to send it to the post office first. The post office will then hand over to the cruise ship floating back and forth at sea, and the cruise ship will dock and then transfer it to the post office. After the post office sorts it, it is delivered by hand. Since it is so troublesome, it is better to go directly to an acquaintance to save time, effort and money.

Seeing that friends trust so much. Sun Yuanqi naturally agreed.

Nothing to say all the way. The steamer drifted at sea for nearly 20 days and finally arrived at Yokohama. Sun Yuanqi kept in mind the entrustment, and took advantage of the time to rest on the shore to get off the boat and deliver the things to the newspaper office. Have the heart to make trouble without causing trouble. But none of my peers could speak Japanese, and it was really inconvenient. had to reluctantly take Liu Bin with him, I don't know how many times he was warned on the way, Liu Bin had to agree to be a stuffy gourd.

When I arrived at Yamashita Town, where the newspaper office was located, I rang the doorbell for a long time before Ma Junwu came out to open the door. Seeing that it was Sun Yuanqi who sent Liang Qichao's manuscript, Ma Junwu was overjoyed and hurriedly let the teacher and student into the house.

Compared to the hustle and bustle of the last time, the room was noticeably quieter. After sitting for a moment, barely hearing any voices. Sun Yuanqi was suspicious in his heart: Jun Wu. Why is your newspaper so quiet today? Which students? Did the spies of the imperial court come? “

Ma Junwu put down the teacup in his hand: You are asking the students of the Education Association, right? Some of them returned to China, and those who did not return to China were also ready to go to the northeast to fight with the Japanese army, so they dispersed. “

Go to the Northeast and fight with the Japanese army? Sun Yuanqi was stunned. If you were to hold a poll in China in the 21st century and elect the country that you hate the most, you would definitely be at the top of the list. - Note that it is hate, not hate. Otherwise, who can compete with the Kimchi Country? - Cooperate with the army? Isn't that a traitor!

However, Liu Bin is not abnormal, and Ma Junwu also takes it for granted: Didn't Tsarist Russia forcibly occupy my northeast in the year of Gengzi? Due to the interference of the international community, the troops should have been withdrawn this year, but as a result, Tsarist Russia reversed itself. According to reliable sources, Ben was preparing to start a war with Tsarist Russia in the northeast, so some students of the Education Association were preparing to go to the northeast in advance. Mobilize the people, cooperate with the Japanese army to fight, and teach the Russian invaders a hard lesson! “

Sun Yuanqi was puzzled: When he fought against Tsarist Russia, he also coveted our northeast. Why do we cooperate with them? It's like Jiang Menshen and Ximen Qing snatching Pan Jinlian,"

Then. Liu Bin, who was sitting on the side, muttered in a low voice: Jiang Menshen and Pan Jinlian have nothing to do with each other. “

What I'm saying is: good, better! Sun Yuanqi blocked Liu Bin's mouth and continued, just like Jiang Menshen and Ximenqing snatched Pan Jinlian, but Wu Dalang volunteered to help Jiang Menshen. Isn't this a big fallacy in the world and a big joke in the world? Ma Jun Wuqi said: How can this be the same?

How is it different? Tsarist Russia occupied a large part of our northern territory, but it also divided our Ryukyus, Taiwan and Penghu Islands, and not only that. Let us also compensate the military expenses of 230 million taels of silver. Now they are all plotting against my Northeast, why is it different? Sun Yuanqi reprimanded.

Ma Junwu was a little short of words, and immediately defended: Taiwan is a small land, and gains and losses have nothing to do with the overall situation. It is said that this and our country are brotherly states of the same language and species, and there are occasional disputes, which are harmless. That Tsarist Russia is an alien species, which has encroached on our country's land since the Kangxi period, and the heart of death is not dead, and it is natural and painful. There is a sentence in "Zuo Biography" that says well, 'Brothers are on the wall, and they are insulted from outside'. We are now joining forces with Japan to reject Russia, which is to jointly resist foreign insults! “

Sun Yuanqi was stunned: Chinese students studying in Japan actually have this kind of thinking!

However, what is even more terrifying is that Ma Junwu's idea was the basic idea of the Chinese people for a long time at that time! For example, although the Russo-Japanese War of 1904 and 1905 declared neutrality, both the official and the people were full of calls for the United Japan to reject Russia, and the Japanese army also made full use of this to write an article in the name of Changbai Chivalry and Liaohai Yimin, and secretly posted and distributed it in the northeast, calling on the people to help Japan resist Russia. The General Staff Headquarters of the Japanese Army even sent Aoki Xuanjun, who had been an instructor of the Beiyang Army, to come to China urgently as the deputy military attache of the embassy to discuss with Yuan Shikai the joint organization of intelligence agencies and the recruitment of horse thieves in Northeast China with Yuan Shikai. Yuan Shikai selected dozens of capable non-commissioned officers from the Beiyang Army who graduated from military schools such as the Surveying and Mapping School. A joint reconnaissance team was formed with the Japanese army. Among them, there was the later famous Xiucai Qiu Ba Wu Peixiang. Ma Yukun, the commander of Zhili who guarded the neutral zone, was an anti-Japanese hero in the First Sino-Japanese War, and at this time he also fully cooperated with the Japanese army, providing the Japanese army's guerrilla special task squad behind enemy lines with big star ammunition and funds, and the members of the special task squad could even escape into the Qing army barracks to obtain shelter in times of crisis. Ma Yukun also secretly assisted the Japanese army in recruiting horse thieves and forming the so-called righteous army, until the Kwantung Army and the puppet Manchukuo government publicly commended and revealed the secrets. ** Pioneers Sun Yat-sen and Qiu Jin and others all cheered when they heard the good news of the Japanese army. The popular poem "Fight for 100,000 skull blood, you must save the world, it is written by the Jianhu Woman to praise the Japanese army."

For example, China and Japan are brotherly countries of the same language and species. During the Republican period, many government officials were students studying in Japan. He has a deep sense of trust and attachment to the book with a strip of water, and believes that it is a matter of course that China and Japan will cooperate and co-prosper in East Asia. For example, Lu Xun, a great writer, thinker, and leader of the Wuyuan Rank, also wrote a poem after he launched the incident and occupied the three eastern provinces: "The brothers who have survived the catastrophe are here. When we meet, we smile and enmity each other. “

For example, China's homeland. Although not the majority, there are indeed many people who believe that China's inherent territory is only the eighteen provinces and regions of Zhili, Jiangsu, Anhui, Shanxi, Shandong, Henan, Shaanxi, Gansu, Zhejiang, Jiangxi, Hubei, Hunan, Sichuan, Fujian, Guangdong, Guangxi, Yunnan, and Guizhou, and that Outer Mongolia, Northeast China, Northwest China, Tibet, and Taiwan are not the homeland of China, although they are much more important than the vassals of Ryukyu, Chaoyuanxian, Siam, Annam, and Gurkha. It can also be waived under certain conditions. There is no doubt that this kind of thinking is extremely wrong, and not an inch of rivers and mountains or an inch of blood-sized land can make people! - But it can also be seen from this that the greatness of Qin Shi Huang can also be seen, and these eighteen provinces and regions almost coincide with the territory of the Qin Dynasty.

Hearing Ma Junwu's words, Sun Yuan laughed angrily: Taiwan's gains and losses have nothing to do with the overall situation? Sino-Japanese friendship, brotherly country? Joke! You mentioned the invasion of Tsarist Russia during the Kangxi period, why didn't you mention the Ming Dynasty's Japanese invaders? Tell you, if you've been holding on to this thought. Thirty years later, it will be a traitor! “

Get up: Jifu, let's go! didn't say hello to Ma Junwu, and walked out.

Liu Bin also hurriedly stood up and said: This time, I didn't say anything, the newspaper will be burned and sealed in the future, but it's none of my business! After speaking, he went out with Sun Yuanqi.

Back on board. That depressed breath lingered between the chest and abdomen, and it could not be relieved, which made Sun Yuanqi feel extremely bored. Tony has disembarked

started to prepare for his jBC, only Liu Bin was on the side, and there was no one else. I had to chat with Liu Bin: Ji Fu. Which of the great powers such as Britain, France, Germany, Russia, Japan, and the United States can be relied upon? What to watch out for? Who else are the mortal enemies?

Liu Bin tilted his head and thought for a while, and replied: Sir, I think I can rely on Japan and the United States. Beware of France and Germany, the sworn enemies are Britain and Russia! “

Sun Yuanqi shook his head. Don't speak.

What is Mr. Na's answer? Liu Bin asked.

My answer? Sun Yuanqi said, my answer is not the same as yours. In my opinion, it is the United States, Germany, and France that can be relied upon, and Britain that needs to be guarded against, while Ben and Tsarist Russia are mortal enemies. “

Why? Liu Bin is a little strange.

Sun Yuanqi analyzed: The United States is a country that is not very interested in the territory of other countries, and relatively speaking, it prefers interests, resources, and what it considers to be 'justice'. From this point of view, it does not have much conflict with China. Germany has always wanted to compete with Britain and France in Europe, and it also wants to cultivate an ally in Asia to involve Britain and France, and in many cases, it is more fond of China. France, now occupying the Vietnamese region, can only stop there, and their romantic and laid-back national character has decided that it will not dominate the world. Therefore, these three countries can be relied on.

As for Britain, on the one hand, it had conflicts with Tsarist Russia in Central Asia and other international affairs, and on the other hand, it wanted to get involved in Chinese territory, especially Tibet. So, it needs to be guarded against.

As for Tsarist Russia, which borders on our country and encroaches on our territory from time to time, needless to say, it is naturally a mortal enemy. Why is this the same? This is because it has always had the ambition of invading China through the Korean Peninsula. Now that Chaoyuan has been annexed by it, the next step will inevitably be to send troops to the three eastern provinces, and then North China, and even the whole country. If Tsarist Russia took away the change from us again and again, then it was a disguise of goodwill, deceived our trust, and finally took away our wallets directly!

If these six countries all use criminals as metaphors, then the United States is a fraudster, Germany is an arsonist, Britain and France are robbers, Russia is a robbery and murderer, and this is a robbery and murder traitor!
