"It's none of your business!" Qiao Guoqiang looked at Shen Chongyang, who was sitting on the ground, and said with a cold face. He hates gambling the most, especially the kind of rotten gambler who doesn't care about life or death at home. Therefore, he is a native of Sichuan and never knows how to play mahjong or poker.

Qiao Guoqiang patted the non-existent dust on his body, looked at Shen Chongyang with eyes like he was looking at a piece of, and asked, "When are they going to do it?" ”

When questioned, he held a Glock 18 pistol in his right hand that would not appear until 80 years later, and in his left hand several banknotes from this era.

Treating people in the rivers and lakes like Shen Chongyang, who want money and don't want their lives, is like training a dog, holding meat and bones in one hand and a big stick in the other.

Smoke a stick to let him know how powerful, and give a piece of meat to make him feel good.

Throughout the ages, the means of the superior are nothing more than this.

"100 yuan, it's yours when you say it."

Shen Chongyang rubbed his chest and said a little decadently, "They went to the Gaosheng Theater tonight." I've told the police there to leave it alone. ”

"Good!" Qiao Guoqiang threw the money over.

"Thank you!" Shen Chongyang took the money, turned around and prepared to leave! .

"Wait a minute!" Qiao Guoqiang suddenly shouted.

Shen Chongyang turned around and said with a smile, "Hehe, sir, do you have anything else?" ”

"Help me protect someone until this is over." Qiao Guoqiang said: "The remuneration is 1,000 yuan. ”

Shen Chongyang, who was still a little annoyed, couldn't help but be happy when he heard that he had money to take.

However, he did not directly agree, but directly asked, "Who to protect?" ”

Hearing him ask, Qiao Guoqiang replied, "Li Yutang's son, Li Chongguang." ”

Shen Chongyang's face suddenly turned cold. It was because of his bad gambling that his wife left home to marry the wealthy businessman Li Yutang. In his eyes, it was his wife who was unfaithful to her family. Li Yutang even hated him for taking his wife.

As soon as he heard that Qiao Guoqiang wanted him to protect the son of his rival, Shen Chongyang wanted to refuse on the spot.

However, at the thought of the thousand dollars, he gave up again.

Everything can't escape the law of true incense, 1000 yuan is 1000 taels, isn't he fragrant?

So, Shen Chongyang agreed on the spot, "Yes, but I want to see the money first!" ”

Qiao Guoqiang knew that he would say this, so he took out a few silver tickets and threw them on the ground, "This is money!" ”

He reminded, "Yan Xiaoguo's people have probably gone to your house, and they don't seem to be at ease with you and want to urge you." ”

Shen Chongyang picked up the silver ticket from the ground, and said in his heart, "Lao Tzu took the money and didn't do anything, what can you do with me?" ”

Qiao Guoqiang seemed to have guessed his thoughts, and the Glock 18 in his hand was equipped with a silencer and pointed at Shen Chongyang's feet, "Puff, puff, puff..." Shoot 25 rounds.

"Wow..." Shen Chongyang was so frightened that his feet jumped straight, and he stretched out a hand to Qiao Guoqiang and begged for mercy, "Hey, Mo~" "Mo~"

"Don't try to trick me!" Qiao Guoqiang pointed a gun at him and said, "No matter how good your kung fu is, you can't shoot a gun!" ”

Shen Chongyang had a cold sweat on his face and nodded at Qiao Guoqiang.

After separating from Shen Chongyang, Qiao Guoqiang went directly to Li Yutang's house. The day before yesterday, he had already met through Chen Shaobai and Li Chongguang.

Under the guidance of the housekeeper, Qiao Guoqiang went directly to the second floor and entered Li Chongguang's study.

Li Chongguang, who was reading, saw Qiao Guoqiang coming up, and quickly stood up and saluted.

"Mr. Joe."

"Reading a book?" Qiao Guoqiang asked.

"Yes!" Li Chongguang said.

"What book?"

Li Chongguang handed the book "KidnappedinLondon" in his hand to Qiao Guoqiang.

"The Martyrdom of London?" Qiao Guoqiang put the book on the table and smiled lightly: "It's barely a good book." ”

"Reluctantly?" Li Chongguang looked at Qiao Guoqiang with a hint of displeasure on his face. In his eyes, X-Wen was a revolutionary leader, and his words, deeds and deeds were a divine guide for revolutionaries.

In the mouth of Mr. Qiao, this kind of heroic deed has only been "barely a good book." Evaluation.

"Looking at the deeds of revolutionaries can certainly stimulate the sense of mission and responsibility of revolutionaries." Qiao Guoqiang flipped through the book and put it on the table, "It can inspire and motivate future generations to learn from these pioneers." ”

"But..." Qiao Guoqiang shook his head, sighed and said, "That's all!" He found a chair and sat down, then ordered the table.

Li Chongguang guessed that Qiao Guoqiang wanted to talk to him about something, so he sat down very obediently.

Looking at this young man who was admitted to Yale University at the age of 17, Qiao Guoqiang asked, "Do you think that after overthrowing the Qing court, the Celestial Empire will become strong?" ”

"Of course!" Li Chongguang said as a matter of course: "The Qing court was corrupt and incompetent, expropriated arbitrarily at home, and ceded land to pay reparations abroad, which made me and I a great China, and now it has become a point of being slaughtered by others." Only by overthrowing the Qing court can we avoid becoming slaves of the country, become rich and strong, and let our 40,000,000 compatriots live a good life. ”

"That's right!" Qiao Guoqiang agreed with him, saying, "The Qing court must be overthrown." Millions of bannermen who are not engaged in production consume half of the treasury every year, and this money is enough to rebuild the Beiyang Naval Division, plus train a few more towns of new troops. ”

"But." Qiao Guoqiang stood up, raised the globe on the table and said, "It is a long and arduous process to make the country strong and the nation rejuvenated. With a flick of his hand, the globe "cooed" and turned.

Li Chongguang would not have known that after the overthrow of the Qing court, the country faced decades of warlord warfare, followed by the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the Second Civil War, and then the establishment of a unified and powerful central government.

However, even then, the development route has experienced many twists and turns. It was not until after 2010 that the citizens of the Celestial Empire had the self-confidence of citizens of a powerful country.

Looking at this teenager who was admitted to Yale University at the age of 17 but died as a stand-in, Qiao Guoqiang said, "The revolution is not a dinner party, it is a bloody sacrifice!" ”

"I'm not afraid!" Li Chongguang said excitedly, "Sacrifice for the revolution and die a well-deserved death!" ”

Qiao Guoqiang shook his head, "It's easy to die generously, but it's hard to endure humiliation." "Historically, Japan was reluctant to send science and engineering students to the battlefield until the end of World War II, because they knew that those people were the real future of the country.

He opened the suitcase on his lap and pulled out the books inside.

"As a revolutionary, what you have to do is not to hold demonstrations, not to hand out leaflets. This is what the propagandists do. ”

Li Chongguang looked at Qiao Guoqiang, who was holding the book, and asked puzzledly, "Then you say, if you don't do this, what will I do?" ”

Qiao Guoqiang replied to him with four words: "Study, practice martial arts!" ”

"Reading can be sensible, it can make your mind clear!" "Practicing martial arts can protect yourself, you can kill enemies, and you can let yourself live longer!"

Pinching Li Chongguang's thin body, Qiao Guoqiang reminded, "The body is the most primitive and the biggest capital of the revolution!" People, as long as they live, there is hope! ”

"One can not be afraid of sacrifice, but one must not sacrifice lightly! Otherwise, it would be a waste of life! ”

He held a book and pointed at Li Chongguang and said, "You don't even care for your own life, can you be expected to love others?" ”

After speaking, he pointed to the box and said, "Look at the book I brought you!" ”

Li Chongguang looked at the books, picked them up and flipped through them, "All in English?" ”

"Adam Smith's The Wealth of Nations" "David. Ricardo, Principles of Political Economy and Taxation

"Avred. Marshall, Principles of Economics, Industrial Economics"

"Mahan - "On Sea Power"

"Clausewitz – On War"

"The Science of Winning – Alexander. Vasilyevich. Suvorov"

"Bismarck"

The last book is "Selected Works of Napoleon"

"Half of these books are books on economics, and they are generally theories of military science." Qiao Guoqiang explained to Li Chongguang: "Revolution is destruction, but in order to make our country strong and the nation rejuvenated, what is more needed is construction." ”

"To complete the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. We need a strong government that can carry out all the decrees to lead the people. We need a revolutionary army capable of defeating internal and external reactionary forces and guaranteeing the life of the regime, a powerful industry capable of producing efficient textile machines and efficient steel-making furnaces, and a large-capacity chemical plant to supply the troops with guns, ammunition, textile raw materials and even fertilizer for farming. ”

"We need railways connecting the east, west, north and south, stable finance to ensure the order of industry and commerce, water conservancy projects to ensure crop harvests to avoid famine, and ports, docks and shipyards to exchange people and materials with foreign countries." At this point, he pointed to the book and said, "Above all, we need hundreds of thousands of modern schools and the teachers who run them, so that our fellow citizens will not be freed from ignorance and slavery by the old literati who have monopolized knowledge." ”

Every time Qiao Guoqiang said a word, Li Chongguang's eyes would light up. Compared with things like democracy, science, and feudal autocracy, what Qiao Guoqiang said is more specific and vivid.

"Sir, please go on!" Li Chongguang brought the tea set from the side and poured a cup of tea for Qiao Guoqiang. His words to Qiao Guoqiang now are like a long drought and rain, hungry and thirsty!
