chatted with Xie Jintai for a long time, and only when it was late did Yang Rui return to Wang Jitong's house - after being exposed, in order to prevent the Manchu persecution, Wang Jitong's mother, brothers, wives and daughters were all sent to Shanghai, and he also bought a house in Shanghai, at this time Cai Yuanpei was also waiting at his house, and as soon as Yang Rui arrived, her mother said to start eating.
A room full of people were waiting for him to open, Yang Rui suddenly felt embarrassed, although this meal was delicious but a little restrained, the old lady looked at Yang Rui during the meal, and kept nodding. The old lady's name is Wang Xie Dada, she is rich and kind, and she is not old-hearted, and she organized a foot club in Suzhou in the year of Xin Chou. When drinking tea after dinner, the old lady actually asked Yang Rui with concern whether he was married, Yang Rui hadn't spoken yet, Wang Jitong preemptively said: "Mother, there is already a marriage contract, and it won't be long before you get married." β
"Oh. Good, good. Revolution is important, but don't delay the marriage. At first, the old lady thought that her son had made friends with bandits in Shanghai, but when she came to Shanghai to watch, Cai Yuanpei was helping on the side, so she was relieved, and she heard that Yang Jingcheng, who had been studying abroad for many years, was the president, and she was not very satisfied, but today I saw this Yang Jingcheng, although he was dressed like a foreigner, but his speech and demeanor were all Chinese, so he was relieved. Seeing that this person is polite and polite, he is a talent, and he is not married yet, just like marrying his daughter Wang Jiyu to him.
Yang Rui's thoughts Wang Jitong has always understood, but Wang Jitong doesn't know about Tianjin's birth, Yang Rui politely responded to the old lady, and at the same time secretly annoyed Cheng Ying's elm head. Everyone just went to the study, and the old lady said again: "It's done, you are the president, I'm afraid that they won't be able to be the master of some things, so I can only tell you." β
The old lady spoke softly and gently. However, Yang Rui has a bit of a taste of meeting parents, especially Wang Jitong and Cai Yuanpei can't be the masters, I'm afraid it's difficult, so I said stubbornly: "Auntie, please speak, as long as Yang Rui can do it." β
The old lady smiled. Said: "You have done a lot of learning, and I also went to see Tongji on the other side of the river, and it is good, but it is too much like a Westerner's school, this is not good." β
I can't see that the old lady is also a Conservative, and Yang Rui can't explain that she can fool the German professor because of the Western flavor. In particular, you can get Einstein over, but Nono said yes.
The old lady said that Tongji is not the main topic, the main topic is in the back, "But you have run so many schools, and there are tens of thousands of students, how many women's schools are there." How many female students are there? Today I want to set up a girls' ...... in Suzhou."
Before the old lady finished speaking, Wang Jitong said proudly: "Mother, you can't go to Suzhou, in case the Manchu Qing Dynasty arrests people......"
"If you arrest someone, you won't go back? Then you revolutionaries who die will not revolutionize? "The old lady knows books and etiquette, she has seen the world, her husband used to be a bachelor in the cabinet, and after his death, she was in charge of all the big and small things in the family." The ancestral tombs of the Wang family are all in Suzhou, and I want to go back to guard them. I came to Shanghai this time just to see the extent of your injuries, and now that you are healed, I have to go back. β
Wang Jitong couldn't refute what the old lady said, even Yang Rui was not easy to persuade, this era is different from later generations, more important than the family is the ancestral hall, more important than the ancestral hall is the ancestral tomb, Qingming, Zhongyuan, Winter Solstice, these three festivals are extremely unfilial.
"Educating people is the foundation of the country. But all of you have run men's schools, but women's schools have not been run, so there are patriotic girls' schools, and there are very few students. There is a way to be a loving mother and many defeated children. Yun Meng's mother chooses her neighbor three times, if the woman doesn't know how to be reasonable, I don't think this new China is much better. β
The old lady's words were very reasonable, Yang Rui glanced at Wang Jitong, and saw that he was also listening to the training, and was about to agree to run the school, when the old lady spoke again, "It's not easy for you to revolutionize, even if it's not easy, don't want you to pay me to run a girls' school, I, I just think that you can send some gentlemen over, and those who are in charge of the school should also send a few of them." "The old lady saw the standard school of the Education Association, and was very happy to see that it was well organized, and she has been thinking about how to transplant this kind of school to Suzhou, and then pay for it herself.
"What my aunt said is a trivial matter, let's discuss it in the evening, and we can send ...... tomorrow" Yang Rui agreed quickly, Wang Jitong turned his head and was glared back by the old lady again, "...... This can send someone to Suzhou tomorrow to investigate, but now that the fall has started, to set up a school, you can prepare this year, and then enroll students next fall. β
Seeing that Yang Rui used the procrastination trick, Wang Jitong and Cai Yuanpei suddenly breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts, and when a few people arrived in the study, Wang Jitong said: "It's done, hey, my mother can't go back." If I go back and something really happens, then I ......."
Yang Rui guessed that the old lady was a person who refused to admit defeat, and it could be seen from the fact that she didn't want the money from the Education Association to run the school, so she only said: "The old man really wants to go back, can you stop it?" β
Wang Jitong was shocked, "Then what should I do?" β
"What else can I do, play the public opinion card, and let the newspaper report on her old man from time to time, so that the Manchu Qing can have some concerns. Besides, you didn't do anything, didn't you just send a coffin to patriots. The current Manchu Qing Dynasty is not as good as before, and I am afraid that I will not dare to come to any more literary prison. Yang Rui didn't want anything to happen to the old lady, so he only came up with such an idea.
Wang Jitong has always known his mother's temper, and he is very persistent in what he believes, which is also reflected in him, and there is only such a way to think about it, so he no longer thinks about it after sighing, but asks: "The Northeast is over, what should we do next?" β
Cai Yuanpei also said, "Yes, now the gentry are talking about the Manchu constitution, and the trend is extremely strong, even the students in the school think that the constitution can save the country." β
Seeing that they were so careful, Yang Rui didn't care, and said: "Constitutionalism is decentralization, and the Manchu Qing Dynasty now has no skill in restricting local governors, once the constitution is established, then those governors below will have more reason to do whatever they want." You see, there are all those who advocate constitutionalism, basically all of them are gentry, as well as the Qingyuan family in the imperial court, and then there are students who are extremely accepting of Xinxue. Once the Manchu Qing Dynasty established a constitution, the country would not be a country from now on, but if the Manchu Qing Dynasty did not establish a constitution, it would also be a country. β
"What about the Manchu Qing Dynasty?" Cai Yuanpei only listened in a daze, and couldn't help but speak from the position of the Manchu Qing Dynasty.
"Hehe, it's all rotten to the bones, if you want to save your life, you can make a constitution. But if you want to protect the country, you can't make a constitution. But if we want to return to power in the name of constitutionalism, then the constitutionalists will be disappointed, and then it will be time for us to take action. β
Yang Rui has never said the exact time of the uprising, and before that, he only vaguely said that the uprising was two or three years after Cixi's death. But Cixi is alive and well now, everyone really can't see when she will hang up, and now Yang Rui actually no longer links Juyi and Cixi together, Wang Jitong and Cai Yuanpei are happy in their hearts, Wang Jitong said, "Then what should we do?" β
"What else can I do. We will talk about what the Manchus like to listen to, and we can even release some rumors that some people from the Revival Society have said. Once the imperial court is constitutional, the association will be dissolved, and we must put the Manchu Qing on the rope of constitutionalism anyway. Yang Rui laughed as he spoke, very treacherous.
Cai Yuanpei was about to say that such rumors would be detrimental to the revival, but Wang Jitong preemptively said: "Then if the Manchu Qing Dynasty is constitutional, what should I do?" β
"Haha, if he really made a constitution. That's easy to do. If the Manchus are unwilling, then we will encourage them to petition, if it doesn't work once, twice, if it doesn't work three times, four times, and the Manchus really don't hand over power, then we will advocate the Manchu constitution as a pseudo-constitution, and when some gentry are disappointed in the Manchus, we can raise righteousness; Yang Rui said energetically. Saliva flowed, "But if the Manchu halal handed over the power, we will vigorously report the gentry who have obtained the power, how bold and reckless they are, and how corrupt and perverted the law, under their rule." How miserable the people were, how much they missed the time when the constitution was not established in the past, and when the time came, they had to instruct a few people who had suffered a lot to go to Beijing to complain, complain bitterly about the harm of the constitution, and let the court take back power. β
"But what if the Manchus ignore it?" Wang Ji said that he thought Yang Rui's strategy was extremely feasible. But I am afraid that the Manchu Qing will delegate power and no longer take power.
"Then we'll go home and sell sweet potatoes." Yang Rui said with a smile. As soon as he said this, Wang Jitong and Cai Yuanpei also laughed.
"It's impossible. It is impossible for people who are accustomed to enjoying their rights to let go of their rights. Yang Rui still thinks that he has a wisdom pearl in his hand, "Besides, the Yichun Garden in the capital is guarding against this." For men, they are not afraid of the persuasion of friends, but they are afraid of the expulsion of women. When the time comes, a congressman, a Manchu Baylor, and the girl from Yichun Garden ignore Baylor and go to serve the councilor, how can you make those yellow belts embarrassed? It's not illegal for me to kill people with a yellow belt. When the time comes, the criminal case will become a state case, and on the one hand, the gentry who have seized power and become more and more arrogant, and on the other hand, they will have their own ruling privileges for more than 200 years. β
Yang Rui said beautifully, but Wang Jitong always felt a little illusory when he listened to it, but Cai Yuanpei knew three of them, and said: "Now the Manchu Qing Dynasty is Dong Zhuo, the gentry is Lu Bu, and the constitution is the beginning of the struggle for power between the two. But it's ......" Cai Yuanpei glanced at the two of them, "If there is really a rumor that the Revival Association will be dissolved as soon as the imperial court is constitutional, it will be very detrimental to the prestige of the Revival Society." β
"So it can only be said that it is a rumor, that is, if we really say such a thing, then we must not admit it, and now we have to unite with the gentry constitutionalists, whether it is a constitution or a petition, we must support them, or pretend to support them; And on the Manchu side, those Beizi Baylor who visited Yichun Garden were the youngest and the most impulsive, so many Diao Chan, there were always a few who could make things happen. β
"But those women don't know Chinese."
"It doesn't matter if you don't understand, as long as those Beizi watch their women crying and being bullied by the councilor, then he doesn't step forward to call the shots, then don't mix in the capital after it gets out, and then what do you want to do with so many words between men and women, how hurtful the words are." Yang Rui's words seemed to have a point, and Wang Jitong and Cai Yuanpei, who listened to it, laughed.
Seeing that the most important thing at this time had been said, everyone breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts, only felt that the Manchu constitution was very beneficial to the revolution, and Cai Yuanpei smiled happily: "It's done, when will you invite us to a wedding wine?" β
Wang Jitong next to him also laughed when he heard this, Yang Rui blushed from laughing at them, and thought about his pile of, and said with interest: "I originally wanted to bring it back, but I ran away with others." β
"Ran away with someone else, this ......" Cai Yuanpei was shocked, he couldn't think of how things could be like this, he felt that Yang Rui was so thoughtful, capable and ...... is a good unmarried young man, and women actually have times when they run away with others, which is too undeserved.
"Really ran. Running to the Alliance, the League will continue to engage in assassination. Maybe one day it will be hung up. I don't understand, why did she believe Sun Wen's set. Yang Rui said helplessly.
Hearing Yang Rui's complaints, Wang Jitong took out a telegram and said, "This girl is very good, the reason why she participated in the alliance." I'm afraid it's a mess at home. β
"What's going on at home?"
"Yes. Her father and brother are both members of the Xingzhong Association, and according to investigations, his father Cheng Weinan is also related to Sun Zhongshan. "The League is a big funnel, you don't need to send any professional spies, just find an initial member and say a few words that China should revolutionize. Then any news will leak out under the excitement of the other party. Yang Rui's newspaper in Tianjin asked Tokyo to thoroughly investigate Cheng Ying's situation in Tokyo, and Tokyo asked him to understand it in two clicks.
"This ...... Xingzhonghui is also a relative of Sun Wen. Oh! Spicy handle. Yang Rui collapsed in his chair when he heard this, only feeling that fate was really joking, he had always wanted to avoid Sun Zhongshan, but fate had been pushing him closer to him. Now this is the case. Isn't it because the Turkish Party fell in love with the Kuomintang? Suddenly, he remembered one of Sun Wen's habits, and hurriedly said, "She and Sun Wen ...... No, did she do any kind of secretary or assistant to Sun Wen? β
Wang Jitong didn't know Sun Wen's special hobbies, and after hearing this, he read the telegram and said: "It seems that Sun Wen asked her to be his English secretary before. However, she didn't agree, and directly followed Fang Junying to the assassination team. β
Yang Rui suddenly breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this: "It's good to go to the assassination group!" Go to the assassination group! "After that, I don't think it's right, the assassination team is a place where lives can be lost in minutes, but in the end, I remembered that Ai Ling and Qingling were here, and they were Sun Wen's secretary before they ...... Now although Cheng Ying is in the assassination group, his life is worry-free for the time being, that is, this little white rabbit is in the mouth of the big bad wolf, how can he not worry, he has to find a way to coax the little white rabbit back quickly.
Yang Rui was trapped by love, while Wang Jitong and Cai Yuanpei shook their heads. I just think that this president is qualified for everything, but ** can't pass that level, and he was in distress twice, both of which are related to women. However, judging by their outdated view of talent. This is also the reason why they can rest assured that they can revolutionize with Yang Rui, following a person who has no feelings, it will be sacrificed as a pawn at any time, of course, there will be sacrifices on the way to the revolution, and sacrifices are normal, but if such an emotionless person is allowed to take power in the world, then the people of the world will suffer. In their vulgar concept, a collar cannot be abusive, otherwise the temperament is too soft to succeed; But he can't be ruthless, his temperament is too hard, he will be used as a plaything in the next day, the two of them are revolutionizing for the common people in the world, not to treat China as anyone's plaything.
This is what Cai Yuanpei and Wang Jitong think in their hearts, but what are those things they dare not think in their hearts? It has always been a struggle for hegemony in the world, and it is a matter of deceit and internal strife, whether it is with other groups or within the rebel army, even if it is a country, in order to compete for the throne, there are not a few fathers, sons and brothers who kill each other. The revival will become more and more likely to win over the world, and everyone will be more and more thinking about the gains and losses of their own interests in the future, and they will be more vigilant against internal power struggles. The decision-making system of the seven members of the Revival Association has made people from different professions and regions have a place, but if Yang Rui has a dictatorial tendency, then Cai Yuanpei and Wang Jitong can completely counteract - the generals in the army are first Cai Yuanpei's students, and then Yang Rui's students, and the business mouth has always been under the management of Wang Jitong, and now it is even more in the name of Yu Huizu. If you calculate the backbone of the meeting, they are either from Zhejiang or Jiangsu, and Yang Rui's fellow countrymen, Xie Xiaoshi, Zhang Chengyue and Xu Jingxi in the first phase of the military academy, and the others are really gone.
Although the revival meeting was first started by Yang Rui, the strategy was also formulated by Yang Rui, and the regulations in the meeting were created by Yang Rui, but these are nothing, if the revolutionary partner is the party or the like, then Yang Rui's future generations will be destroyed in minutes, but now he meets a group of literati who are more pedantic than him, which makes him have a piece of vitality, but how long can this vitality last?
The silence in the study ended after a while, and the three people who were thinking about their own affairs discussed the revolutionary issue comradely, and at the beginning, it was Cai Yuanpei who introduced the situation and plan of the education meeting:
"At present, there are more than 25,380 primary schools in the country, with about 300,000 students, of which 6324 are affiliated to the Education Association, with 64,389 students......
After Cai Yuanpei finished reading the first sentence, Yang Rui's mind was stunned for a moment, and when he said the back, he hurriedly said: "Where did this number of jΓΉ come from?" β
"I got it from the school department through GuΓ² Guanguan, and it is the number jΓΉ that has just been counted for the past four years. But it's all estimates. Overall, the number of students in primary schools has increased rapidly, with only 110,000 students last year and more than 20,000 the year before. Cai Yuanpei was also shocked when he first saw this number, but the truth in China is as before, and there is no way to do it.
There are only 300,000 elementary school students. This is my Daqing! Yang Rui laughed angrily and motioned for Cai Yuanpei to continue reading.
"There are 283 secondary schools in the country, with more than 49,000 students, of which 67 are affiliated to the Education Association, with 26,530 students; There are four universities in the country, with 1,549 students. Among them, there is one affiliated to the Education Association, with 794 students; There are 21 schools of higher learning, liberal arts, science, law, medicine, and art in the country, with 20,671 students, of which 4 are affiliated with education, with 3,861 students; There are 681 normal schools in the country, with 38,423 students. Among them, 11 schools affiliated to the Education Association have 2,569 students. β
After Cai Yuanpei finished reading, he added: "The number of students in the primary school is increasing rapidly, and it is expected that it will exceed 500,000 by next year and 800,000 the year after next. However, there are only more than 2,000 teachers in secondary schools, and the enrollment of professional and university halls is too small, so the growth is extremely slow. It is estimated that in five years, there will not be more than 50,000 secondary school students. This is especially true of university halls, if you look at the standards of the Education Association, there are no qualified universities, but there are many junior college students. β
I thought that no matter how broken the Manchu Qing Dynasty was, there should be 400,000 students, but in fact, if there is no education association, there will not even be 300,000 students, which is really ...... Yang Rui said weakly: "Okay, President Cai will talk about your big plan." β
Cai Yuanpei was called by Yang Rui and had to laugh, he was not an official of the school. He turned to his notebook and began to introduce his plan, "The number of students in the primary school has grown very rapidly, and the reason for this is that there are more than 30,000 students in the Normal School. The middle school is not easy to train teachers. And it is difficult for students to have a way out after graduation, so the admission rate of primary school to middle school is extremely low, except for the education association, there are only 23,000 middle school students in the country, if the number of primary school students exceeds 500,000 next year, and reaches 800,000 the year after next, then the admission rate of middle school will soon be one out of 100. β
Cai Yuanpei has been in the school for many years, and he is very clear about the change trend of the school in recent years, and his judgment on the increase in the number of students in the primary school is extremely accurate.
When he recorded, Cai Yuanpei said: "My plan is to charge for the primary school hall of the Education Association, half the fee for the middle school hall, and free for the normal school and the university hall. In addition, it is necessary to immediately upgrade several normal schools to normal universities or normal colleges, otherwise there will not be enough teachers in middle schools in the future. β
"How much does it cost, how much does it cost half?" Yang Rui also feels that completely free education is really unbearable, and if you want to have such a talent in righteousness, the fee is certain.
"Except for the mountain elementary schools. Other primary schools are two yuan per semester in the city and one yuan and five jiao per semester in the countryside; Higher primary schools, three yuan per semester in the city, two yuan and five cents per semester in the countryside, are not responsible for food and clothing. After Cai Yuanpei finished speaking, he was afraid that Yang Rui would be too expensive, and explained: "According to the regulations of the school, the monthly tuition fee of the public primary school cannot exceed three triangles, and the monthly tuition fee of the higher primary school cannot exceed five jiao. β
Yang Rui didn't say anything, just waited for him to accept half of the middle school fee.
Cai Yuanpei cleared his throat and continued: "The middle school hall is said to be half price, in fact, it is also free, and it can be used by me, and those who are given scholarships can not be used by me, and those who are poor can sign a student loan, according to the previous calculation, the annual cost per person is fifteen yuan, and 50,000 middle school students need 750,000 yuan, plus 30,000 students in the future of the University Hall, the Law and Political Science School, and the Normal School, as well as 10,000 people after the expansion of the primary school hall in the mountainous area, and 500 foreign students, Then the entire education will not cost more than $1.8 million a year. β
Cai Yuanpei roughly gave an education budget, which in his opinion is already very remarkable, but this is far from Yang Rui's idea. However, his analysis of the primary school was extremely useful for Yang Rui to conceive the education plan, and according to the current situation, whether the Revival Society could not engage in universal education and free education was asking for trouble.
