Chapter 2100: Battle of Flowers (8)

   Chapter 2100 Flower War (8)

  Chaplin played a movie called Modern Times, in which he once played an assembly line worker, repeating the same job every day.

  Although the meaning of the film is to ignore the value of workers and be used like tools, it is undeniable that the production method of the assembly line is indeed very efficient.

However, the products produced by the assembly line are repeated, and the shipyard is not. Anyway, according to the information Matilda inquired, Napoleon found "many" unreasonable places after inspecting the work of the shipyard, and then got angry. Well, it's not the "huge" corruption that happened in the British Navy's shipyards.

  England's factory model was kept secret, and that's where they led the world in the first industrial revolution. For example, in the case of the canning factory, the French never thought about the assembly line. The production is not only inefficient, but also does not have a "rhythm" called "production beat", despite their efforts.

  Georgianna hopes to send a group of students to study in the UK, but it is almost impossible to learn anything useful. Only by sending industrial spies can it be possible to learn other people's production models.

   After understanding the general situation, she was relieved. There was really no other way but to catch up. After getting angry, she still had to sit down and continue to study. Knowledge would not be stuffed into her mind because of anger.

  So when the whole boat was feeling uneasy because of Bonaparte's anger, she started to read again. There were quite a few Yellow Turban soldiers approaching the city, and Kong Rong still read the book "calmly".

Lao Juren told Nick about the process of learning English, but the result was not as smooth as he expected. When he failed the exam for the first time, he took the Chinese and English salutations and no dignitaries paid attention to him. Juren was the first Once felt what is called frustration.

He had no relatives and no reason in Peiping, and it would not be enough to continue to live in a hotel. At this time, the priest who taught him English told him that he could try to be a private teacher, so he became Xianglan under the introduction of the priest. Bannerman Xilin Jue Luo's tutor.

  The Xilin Jue Luo family is a big family. The most famous one is Ertai, a minister during the Yongzheng period. When Yongzheng died, he and Zhang Tingyu served as auxiliary ministers. His son E Ning was appointed governor of Yunnan and Guizhou, but he was demoted to governor of Fujian after only one year.

  Yunnan is fighting, and there are many chieftains at the junction of northern Myanmar and the Manchu Qing. Some of them claim to be ministers to Myanmar, some to the Manchu Qing, and if they are more timid, they claim to be ministers to both sides at the same time.

   At that time, there was a king in Burma who was particularly able to conquer wars. Most of the chieftains were soft, and some chieftains still ignored the threat of Burma and turned to Qianlong for help, and then the Qing-Burma war broke out. The reason why E Ning was demoted was because he wrote to the emperor that he should not continue fighting, but should be surrendered. Qianlong transferred him away and replaced him with another governor to continue fighting.

There is an E Chang in the palace. She has not given birth for many years. She herself is in her thirties. Even when she was young, she lost her charm to Qianlong, and the younger generation has rules. Anyway, this family does not give Juren a sense of prosperity. , I resigned after teaching for a year, and see if I can make a name for myself by relying on the relationship between the governor of Fujian and my hometown.

  The governor of Fujian is based in Fuzhou, not Xiamen where Nick is going. At this time, Nick and Laojuren already have a certain trust relationship, and Nick asked about the pirate Zheng Yi.

Zheng Yi is a "principled" pirate. His main purpose is to make money. As long as he is not a particularly beautiful woman, he will release the man and child after paying the ransom, and these beautiful women are not left to him, but to share. For his subordinates, he has a very strong wife, everyone calls her Longsao, and she can even command battles in place of her husband.

  It was at this time that the servant invited Nick to the parlour, where he saw the leader who took him to the admiral's parlour last time.

   This person is here to tell Nick that the Admiral is going back to report soon, and he wants to hold a farewell banquet with his friends before leaving.

  Nick accepted the invitation, when the handsome Zuo led asked what gift Nick was going to give?

  Nick felt that at this time, he could learn about the customs of the East from his personal teacher. He thanked Zuo Ling for the reminder, and after sending Zuo Ling away, he went back to find Juren.

   But strangely, when Nick asked Juren where to buy gifts, Juren "rejected". He told Nick that he and Zhongtang were in the same imperial examination (he repeated this sentence more than once during the next trip), and they were both famous and downcast, but their circumstances were far different.

   He once felt that fate was unfair, but then he figured out that a person's character is very important.

Nick couldn't figure out how a person who could be a "gun substitute" and take the exam for a scholar would feel that he was virtuous, and then told him a strange moral concept. If he unfortunately accidentally killed a person, he could To erase these evil deeds points by saving another person, or to make up for it by virtue and good deeds, every good deed will erase the evil deeds points. When he is sick, someone saves him for free.

  Nick thinks what he said is absurd. It was obviously God and the priest who saved him, but Nick didn't laugh at this doctrine. Isn't the Christian doctrine of atonement similar to it?

  Lao Juren then began to tell the "story" of his youth.

Fang Guancheng, the governor of Zhili, was succeeded by Yang Tingzhang, Minister of Punishment. He once participated in the Qing-Burmese War. After being transferred back to Peiping, he was given horseback riding in the Forbidden City. The strange thing was that it never rained all summer. Yang Tingzhang had to build embankments to prevent floods. In fact, the defense of the capital was in charge of the military ministers Liu Tongxun and Liu Lun.

   Blocking news in densely populated areas was almost impossible, rumors quickly spread to villages, and some countrymen cut their braids to avoid being harmed by sorcery. This is not a violation of the shaving order, but there are many bald heads that make it difficult to identify monks.

   Asiha wanted to fool the past by saying that there was no longer the Braid Cut Demon Party in Henan, but Aisin Gioro Hongli told him that this was not true, implying that the emperor had other sources of information besides the bureaucracy.

  When Yong was a prince, there were often cicadas who kept tweeting and disturbing his reading, so he set up a sticky pole to catch those annoying cicadas.

   Even the East Factory has an office. Old BJ knew it was near Dong'anmen, and he usually took a detour there.

   As for the office location of the "sticking pole", the folklore is that it is in the Lama Temple, and every year the emperor allocates so much sesame oil money and does not fully support the lama. The Buddhist temple is full of incense and frequent personnel exchanges, and it is not easy to attract attention, but if you want to find concrete evidence to prove that there is no office where the stick is located, the government does not admit the existence of "blood drops".

The rumors stop with the wise. No matter how, as the summer ends, Zhizhi will stop calling. Aisinjueluo Hongli also returned to BJ before the snow began to fall on November 1. Two days later, he decreed to stop calling the soul case. It was as if everything had returned to peace again.
