He Ruixi said: "This idea is so good! Principal, you are really broad-minded."
Kawahika Cao nodded slightly, as if he admired He Rui's attitude very much. But Kawahika Cao did not believe He Rui's truth. He Rui did not lie, and he could not believe his truth. Kawahika Cao did not think that He Rui agreed that the purpose of personnel exchanges was to promote Sino-Japanese friendship. Even if it was true, the Sino-Japanese friendship in He Rui's eyes was probably very different from the Sino-Japanese friendship that Japan expected.
After the meal, Lieutenant General Kawahika and He Rui arrived at the tea room next to him. Photon did not come. Kawahika and He Rui sat opposite the tea table and drank a cup of tea first. Lieutenant General Kawahika asked, "Mr. He, is there any scenery in the northeast?"
He Rui thought for a while and said with a smile: "There are not many natural scenery in the Northeast, and it is probably the only one that is fascinating. If you are talking about a tour program that Japan does not have, I recommend dog sledding. We have introduced a batch of sled dogs from Russia and Canada, which is very different from horse sledding."
Kawa He Cao understood that He Rui did not want to discuss politics. If he really went to the Northeast, He Rui would really treat Kawa He Cao as a traveler. However, the purpose of seeing He Rui in the future has nothing to do with travel.
Since He Rui pretended to be stupid, Kawaho Cao, as the principal, simply made the statement clear, "He Jun, now Britain and France have expressed their appreciation for He Jun's humanitarian rescue. Does He Jun think that Kolchak can resist the attack of the Soviet Red Bandits after the beginning of spring?"
After saying that, Kawahisa added, "Jun He, you were known for your courage when you were in the military academy. Has it changed after graduating from the military academy?"
He Rui didn't care about such aggressive generals. He Rui thought that the temperament he developed in the 21st century had not changed, but the atmosphere in the second 10th year of the 20th century was still conservative. Since Lieutenant General Kawahoo asked bluntly, He Rui answered bluntly: "If Kolchak could resist the Red Army, he should continue to fight with the Red Army in Siberia now. Even the risk of freezing to death could not prevent Kolchak from leading a million people to Vladivostok, naturally because they could not resist the Red Army even if they died."
Kawaho nodded with satisfaction, "What He Jun said is so much. Kolchak himself will definitely be defeated by the Red Army. In Japan, he heard that Britain and France placed a large order with He Jun and used the Manchu and Mongolian arsenal to arm Kolchak. Does He Jun think that Britain and France can regroup? "
He Rui smiled and said, "Principal, the Northeast does not participate in the Russian civil war, and the arms business is just a commercial activity."
Kawaho Cao felt that he had to work harder, so he continued to persuade: "Jun He, if the Northeast and the Kanto Army join forces to help Kolchak together, I think it can resist the Red Army."
Based on the Japanese ventral habits, Principal Kawahiko's frankness can be called the sunshine, and even He Rui was a little moved. He bowed slightly to greet him, and He Rui replied: "Principal, since you are so frank, the students are willing to tell each other honestly. If Britain and France ask about the attitude of the Northeast government, the Northeast government will make it clear that the Northeast is willing to defend peace and suggest that the Russian Red Army and the White Guards ceasefire. They are even willing to provide negotiation places for both sides."
This is the politician's remarks, and Lieutenant General Kawaha is not very used to it. But Lieutenant General Kawahaha can also understand what He Rui wants to express, that is, he will never participate in the Russian civil war. But Kawahaha still wants to convince He Rui, "Don't He Jun take the opportunity to abolish the treaty signed by the Qing Dynasty and Russia?"
He Rui laughed. This is what mature adults should look like. Lieutenant General Kawaha is using nationalist sentiment, rather than thinking of Cheng Ruofan, who really believes in nationalism. If Cheng Ruofan faces Lieutenant General Kawaha, he will definitely be aroused by nationalism.
Of course, if Lieutenant General Kawaha was talking to Cheng Ruofan, he was afraid he might not have used nationalist sentiment. Because Cheng Ruofan is likely to directly express, "Abolish the Treaty of Shimonoseki."
But He Rui didn't care. Faced with the instigation of Lieutenant General Kawahoo, He Rui told the truth, "If the Japanese army wanted to fight the Russian Red Army, the Northeast government would be willing to provide all the help outside of sending troops. From weapons and ammunition to logistics supplies, from military hospitals to drug supply, it would definitely meet the needs of the Imperial Japanese army."
Hearing this, Lieutenant General Kawahiko just sighed slightly. He picked up the kettle to fill in the teapot, added tea, and raised the tea cup to He Rui. He Rui also picked up the tea cup and drank it all. Then he changed the topic, "Principal, you have proposed that the Northeast and Kwantung Army exchange personnel, I wonder if the principal has a plan?"
In the end, Lieutenant General Kawaho did not go to Shenyang. Since the meeting with He Rui had achieved results, even if he was rejected, at least He Rui expressed his attitude frankly and did not hide anything. Taking the results of this conversation back is also a result.
Although Lieutenant General Kawaho believes that He Rui will not lie, He Rui is not unlikely to change his views because of greater interests. Of course, it depends on how much the price Britain and France can pay. At least Japan cannot afford to pay the price that can bribe He Rui.
Before leaving, Photon finally had the chance to meet He Rui alone. Seeing that there was no one in the room, Photon sat in front of He Rui and lowered his head deeply, "Ni Jiang, I'm sorry."
He Rui was amused and wanted to touch Photon's little head like before. However, looking at Photon in a kimono, He Rui felt that he could no longer do what Photon did when he was a child. So he patted Photon's shoulder and comforted Wen Yan: "Phon, I should say sorry to me. I know you don't want to participate in such a thing at all. It's entirely because of me that you get involved in such a thing. Please forgive me. Please rest assured, I will find a way to ask my friend to help you so that you will no longer be harassed like this."
Hearing this, Photon's eyes were wet. When He Rui was in Tokyo, Photon could feel that Brother He Rui had two different faces, one for ordinary people like Photon, and the other for those with identities.
Since the meeting with Kawahiko, Mr. He Rui has always been in front of Photon. Now, the brother He Rui who is considerate and friendly to everyone, and who can stand up when everyone encounters difficulties has finally come back, which makes Photon both at ease and sad.
Wiping away the tears, Photon took out the letter and put it on the tatami, and pushed his hands in front of He Rui, "Ni Jiang, this is my mother's letter to you."
He Rui picked up the letter and read it. Aunt Morita greeted He Rui in the letter, saying all about family matters and asking about He Rui's current situation, especially asking whether He Rui has lived the life he wants to live, whether he has obtained what he expected in such a life, and is happy because of this. He Rui's nose felt a little sore as he read it. Then he put down the letter, breathed a sigh of relief, and tried to dispel the sourness in his nose, and also dispel tears.
There are many people in this world who are concerned about He Rui. In their eyes, He Rui represents a certain symbol. He is either a powerful leader, a smart and cunning warlord, or a leader and leader of a movement. There are not many people who regard He Rui as a person with his own joys, anger, sorrows, and happiness. Even those who pay attention to He Rui's joys, angers, sorrows, and happiness are mostly just trying to seek benefits from it and avoid harm and gain their own interests.
In a sense, He Rui himself also viewed himself in this way.
After putting away the letter, He Rui sighed: "Oh... Photon, I thought that as long as I didn't write to you, I could reduce your troubles, but I didn't expect that I was wrong. Since that's the case, tell me what interesting things you have experienced in the past few years."
Photon smiled, but Photon immediately discovered how much of her life has changed for the past few years. In the past, Photon was able to truly laugh in front of He Rui. Over the past few years, from the girls' high school to the Tohoku Imperial University in Japan, Photon's smile is very clear about how much is the simple mood and how many are polished smiles.
But since I got here, Photon simply asked the question he had been curious about, "Ni Jiang, can you tell me how much effort you have put into college? I am really grateful."
He Rui also felt the change of photons. The young and ignorant child had grown up. She refused to be confused anymore, but instead figured out who was promoting her life. Since that was the case, He Rui smiled and said, "At first, Professor Ping Fengsheng told me that he could help very little. Later, Mitsui Yasuki of the Mitsui Consortium wanted to help, but the school affairs meeting of Northeast Empire University did not even give Professor Ping Fengsheng much face. How could a Mitsui family, who did not donate money in Northeast Empire University, tend to trend school affairs meetings? You must know how much pressure you have to face when recruiting girls."
Photon nodded slightly. In Japan, although the Mitsui Consortium is "rich", it is not "expensive". Although Photon never asks about the origins of those female classmates at Tohoku Imperial University in Japan, she pays attention to her daily silence. With the few things she heard, she also asked carefully. Each of the female college students has a Japanese Chinese background, both rich and noble.
He Rui continued: "Later, Professor Ping Fengsheng asked me to write a letter and begged Mr. Takahashi for help. Later, Professor Ping Fengsheng wrote a letter saying that things had been promoted, and the rest depends on your test scores. Your studies have always been very good, so I felt relieved."
Only then did Photon understand the context of the whole thing and untie his heart. Although the description was simple, there was no emotion in He Rui's tone. Photon knew that the power of the senior management was so simple and straightforward, and that the doors closed to ordinary people would be completely open to the senior management. It did not require any special effort. A letter or a sentence was enough.
After a moment of silence, Photon raised his head and asked, "Ni Jiang, I have read all the books and manuscripts you have written that I can collect. Will Japan continue like this? Will the Chinese people always hold all the power?"
He Rui was a little moved. Photon was not the first person who said this to He Rui. The first person to ask He Rui was Ishihara Kaner. At that time, Ishihara Kaner and He Rui didn't know each other for a long time. The two were drunk in the tavern. Ishihara Kaner's eyes flashed with strange light, and he asked this question.
He Rui was amused by the question of Ishihara Kanir, the mastermind of 918 in another time and space, and then replied: "Ishihara, if the Japanese people accept such a fate, they will continue. If they do not accept it, they must have the ability to overthrow the current situation, especially to seize the opportunity at a critical moment. Otherwise, even if Japan is completely conquered, such shackles will continue to be on the heads of the Japanese people. The son of the parliamentarian continues to be a parliamentarian, and the son of the banker continues to be a banker. There will be no change."
At that time, He Rui didn't know Ishihara Kaner, and he forgot what he said after drinking.
Unexpectedly, a few days later, Ishihara Kaner came to see He Rui again, and he no longer had the rebellious and unruly appearance he had before. Ishihara Kaner talked with He Rui very sincerely and kept talking all night.
Now, Photon raised such a question. He Rui was a little hesitant, whether to tell Photon the possibility of liberating Japan. If he was expecting Photon to participate in the action of Japanese liberation, He Rui knew that he would of course tell him. But in He Rui's eyes, Photon was his sister. He Rui really just wanted Photon to live in the liberated Japan, rather than struggling to be on the front line of liberating Japan.
He Rui soon discovered that this is the difference between treating comrades and relatives. For relatives, He Rui only wants to dedicate a beautiful world to them, but does not want them to endure the suffering of creating a beautiful world.
Photon looked at He Rui's hesitant expression and further confirmed that He Rui in front of him was the brother who had always protected him and helped him. This actually inspired Photon's determination, "Ni Jiang, I can protect myself. What I am looking forward to now is to see hope, and please ask Ni Jiang to point out where the road to light is."
He Rui sighed softly, "Phonest, any activity of human society can be seen as an economic activity. With Japan's current national strength, the Japanese people will definitely be able to live a better life. Japan's economic development itself will not be affected by the improvement of the lives of the Japanese people, and may even become more active due to the improvement of the lives and demand of the Japanese people. But this did not happen, the reason is that the distribution system determined by the current political system of Japan. Whether it is opportunities or distribution, the decision-making power is monopolized in the hands of the senior management."
Photon listened carefully. Because of his own experience, Photon knew very well that all this was true. However, Photon did not ask questions, but just listened carefully.
He Rui continued: "If these senior officials were capitalists like Katsuki Mitsui, it might be better. However, Japan's current decision-making power is monopolized in the hands of the old nobles. Men and women are equal, they do not accept it. They choose people based on talent, they do not accept it. To maintain it, Japan must operate with these people as the core. As powerhouses, everything in Japan is the bargaining chip for their transactions. You have experienced all kinds of class leaps, and you should be able to understand what it means to monopolize the public power of the state by a small group of people. Only if you are already in this circle of power can you get the opportunity. If Japan wants to be liberated, the old system must be crushed and a new system of true equality cannot be established. If it is just a repair and force the people in power to make concessions. No matter how much effort it takes, the gains will be minimal. If those powerhouses give you a little bit, they will first squeeze thousands of times of the benefits from you."
Hearing this, Photon asked in confusion: "Ni Jiang, what exactly are those people afraid of?"
"What they fear is to lose the power to dominate others. Those people are also human beings. They are no different from ordinary Japanese like you. They are not smarter than ordinary people, nor smarter than ordinary people. If they have to compete with ordinary people like you, they will soon lose all their advantages and be completely replaced by the excellent ones among ordinary people. If there is anything better than people like you, they have power, so they have more clarity on the consequences of losing power. So they will not allow such things to happen anyway."
Photon felt suddenly enlightened. The driving force that drove the powers to act was fear. Photon had never figured it out before. Now Photon finally understood why those powers were hostile to anything that was unreasonable and would fight it firmly. Photon originally really believed that those people were out of love for order.
