"This is what we brought from all parts of China." Cai Yuanpei said honestly. After all, he is a teacher and does not lie. If Yang Rui was there, he would have said that he suddenly grew from the ground for the sake of Sino-German friendship.

"They were transported. Can they survive again after leaving the land?" Dr. Baolong is also an honest man. He couldn't think of how to transport big trees, and he couldn't even understand why the trees did not die after transplanting.

"As long as it can maintain the moisture and soil at its roots, and the transplanted place is suitable for the soil, he can survive, even grow better than before." Cai Yuanpei said. He finally remembered some diplomatic rhetoric, "This is like the German culture, which is transferred from Germany. As long as the original essence is retained during the transfer, then after arriving in China, she will definitely grow and become more prosperous and taller like these Bodhi trees."

Cai Yuanpei's quick words immediately made all the Germans who visited him applaud. Large-scale cultural exchanges between the East and the West began very early, but the Chinese still know very little about German culture. This nation that nurtured all philosophers in the last century was not well-known and respected by China. They mentioned that Germany occupied Qingdao and Krupp cannons more. Now, cultural exchanges between China and Germany will start from this beautiful school under their feet. How can they not be happy?

"Sir President, then when will she start school? Also, because it is taught in German, is his students enough?" The more Mr. Baron looked at the school, the more satisfied he was. He was already drafting the telegram to Germany in his heart. However, he wanted to make sure again that this matter really existed.

"Sir Baron, the school will hold a meeting in five months, that is, in September of the Western calendar. Now the construction workers are speeding up the construction of the professor's apartment and teaching building. As for the students, there are already thousands of students who are learning German in our education association. They have all studied German for many years. After the German professors arrive in July, they can hold the entrance exam. Please rest assured. Everything is going as planned." Cai Yuanpei said. He is a little unable to wait for the start of school in September. This school not only spent all the extra education funds that Yang Rui had extorted from the Russians, but also spent too much effort. From the Hanlin Academy to the Shaoxing Chinese and Western School, to Chengzhong School and Nanyang Public School, and finally to the Patriotic Academy, his educational dream seems to be about to come true.

Baron Gers nodded happily and said solemnly. "I will report this beautiful school to His Majesty the Emperor, and I believe he will be amazed by this beautiful school in the Far East. The teacher problem you are worried about before is not a problem. Domestic universities in Germany will draw a group of outstanding professors to teach."

The Baron said the words were very imposing, and he looked like a big shot, but Cai Yuanpei didn't care. He just heard his last sentence but smiled. The Baron might not know how many teachers would be drawn, but as a planner, he still knew very well how many professors he needed to fill the professorships in the school. Not to mention the others, there were dozens of professors in the three colleges of engineering, materials, and physics and chemistry.

"Sir Baron, it's so good. I've been worried about this. If the professors come together, then in the Far East, Deutsche University will become the most influential school." Cai Yuanpei said happily. Yang Rui had always said that the Germans would fully help establish the school, but he still didn't believe it before the people came.

Baron Gers was very satisfied with his joy. Germany is the most outstanding nation and its culture is also the best. Now the Chinese are eager to hope that German professors will come to teach, rather than invite British and French people. He also feels very proud. He stopped talking anymore, but just stepped on his leather boots on the concrete floor, until he saw an unfinished statue in front of the school library. He stopped curiously, looked at Eguanbo with a statue of an ancient Chinese, and asked, "This should be the great Confucius of China?"

"No. He is not Confucius." Cai Yuanpei pondered the words and thought about how to tell him this great man who was not famous in China. Finally, he said: "If you compare ancient Greece, he should be Socrates of China."

"Socrates?" The Baron looked at this statue more than anything, and he had never heard of Socrates in China.

"Yes. He was born in the era when the Hundred Schools of Thoughts Contending More than 2000 years ago, which was the most active period in Chinese history. The thoughts at that time have deeply influenced China, but he was buried by history for more than 2000 years. Now is an era of great integration of Eastern and Western cultures. We hope to use it to awaken another kind of thinking of the Chinese people." Cai Yuanpei said emotionally. Although as a Confucian scholar, he still believed that Confucius should be respected in school, as soon as the school's planning map came out, Yang Rui placed this statue in the most conspicuous place in this school. At first, he was puzzled, but after thinking about it, he still understood his painstaking efforts.

Baron Gers couldn't see where the statue looked like Socrates. Of course, he did not go into the depths of whether this person was Socrates of China. Instead, he walked around the statue and walked to other places. The school tour continued until the afternoon. At around four o'clock, everyone took a ferry to the west bank of the Huangpu River. After the rest, a small cocktail party celebrating the establishment of the China-Germany Tongji University Hall Foundation will begin. At that time, celebrities from both China and Germany in Shanghai will come and donate to the foundation.

Cai Yuanpei took a carriage to send the Germans back to the German Consulate on Huangpu Road. After that, he was tired and asked the carriage to send himself to the Licha Hotel, which was not far from the consulate. The earliest Western hotel banquet hall in the entire concession was booked by the Education Association today. After the 7 o'clock fundraising party, it was a celebration party. He had to take a hot shower first, and then change into the Western dresses he had made before. It would be better to recite the speeches at the reception again. Although Yang Rui has been transfusions to the Education Association, as the army grew larger and more industrial investments became more and more, he was less and less afraid to put all the funds of the Education Association on the Revival Association. Revolution is important, and education is also important. He hopes to open up another way through the fundraising party tonight. Not to mention that the Education Association can bear the profit and loss by itself, it is best to allow Tongji University Hall to bear the profit and loss in daily operations in addition to the construction cost.

Cai Yuanpei, who got off the carriage, gave a tip. When the doorman opened the hotel door and entered the lobby, he suddenly felt dizzy again. Although it was not completely dark, the Western electric lights hanging on the roof of the hotel lobby were turned on, and the bright light shone on the marble floor. It was obvious that the dazzling light made him dizzy.

He hurried back to the room, his wife was already waiting inside. She helped him take off his coat and hung it on the hanger behind the door. Seeing his wife's slightly solemn face, Cai Yuanpei asked, "What's wrong? Is something wrong there?"

"No." Huang Zhongyu said softly.

"No." Cai Yuanpei pulled his wife's hand holding the top hat, "What's wrong today?"

"It's really nothing. You're exhausted today. Go and take a shower, there's a drink later." Huang Zhongyu tried hard, broke free from his hand, and then turned to the bathroom. "Do I want to go too? But I can't dance."

"You don't have to dance. If you want someone to ask you to dance, just say it as I taught you." Cai Yuanpei said while taking off his clothes. Seeing that his wife was fine, Cai Yuanpei's mind was put on the fundraising party later.

"But I can't tell which country they are from Western countries, whether they are from Germany or from Britain."

"This... I don't know. Use the German one first, Germany will be updated today..." Cai Yuanpei said as he entered the bathroom. But before he could enter, his wife hugged him from behind. He asked, "What's wrong? What happened today?"

"I... I accompanied Wei Dan's sister to see him today...he..." She couldn't say anything after saying this. In order to be afraid that Zou Rong's sister would be afraid, she went down to accompany her to Siming Office today. When she opened the lid of the coffin, she was startled by Zou Rong's body. Because ice was placed inside and outside the coffin, the body did not rot, but what scared her was Zou Rong's eyes, and somehow it was opened. Although her eyes were dull, the anger and resentment inside stinged her. But this might be a dazzle, and it wouldn't be like this if you look at it again.

"So that's it," Cai Yuanpei turned around, hugged his wife and asked again, "Is Wei Dan's sister scared?" Seeing that his wife didn't say anything, he smiled and said, "Oh, it turns out that the little girls are scared. You are scared. Alas..."

Before Cai Yuanpei finished speaking, Huang Zhongyu said, "I... wasn't scared. I'm worried about you, Jimin, is revolution really so important? We. Isn't our life good for the past?"

"No!" Cai Yuanpei shook his head and said, "China is no longer able to do without revolution. We are born at the right time. If we don't go to the current, we will never be at ease until we die." He said heavy, afraid that his wife would not listen to him, so he wanted to say something, so he stopped with his mouth open. He actually wanted to tell her that the people of the Revival Society were determined to die: Xiao Xu slept with the explosive file day and night, and as long as someone knocked on the door and had a wrong secret code, the explosive would be stimulated; he became in the military camp outside the pass,

He had already escaped from death once, and was extremely dangerous at other times; and Xianyang, who was far away in the European War, had to supervise Germany's affairs in addition to studying, and was exhausted and vomited blood. Now he had entered the hospital... There were Chen Ximin, Wang Shizheng, and Wu Baodi, who had already thrown away all his blood for the revolution. And now he lives in the highest-end Western hotel, and his food, drink and use everything others have never seen in his life. What reason does he have to retreat without revolution?

As if he felt his husband's determination, Huang Zhongyu came out of his arms and said, "Go and take a shower quickly. The cocktail party will begin later. Didn't you say you would receive one million?"

When Cai Yuanpei saw that his wife had gotten better, he heard her say this, and said, "It's good that you're fine, I won't have any trouble. Don't worry."

The fundraising party that started at 7 o'clock in the evening was very successful. When Baron Gers read that the donation amounted to 824,800 marks and 25,590 taels of silver, the audience was filled with joy. Everyone was surprised that this time he could raise so much money, but Cai Yuanpei knew that deducting the 500,000 marks and 100,000 taels of donations from the German government and the 100,000 taels of silver from the Tianzi Enterprise, the others were less than 300,000 yuan. How long would this money last for the school?

While Cai Yuanpei was calculating the money, someone came over next to him, "Master Cai, Master Cai, I'll entrust you to you, as long as he can learn well..." The person who came called Master Cai Yuanpei, still regarded him as an editor of the Hanlin Academy rather than the president of the China Education Association. However, after a while, his polite voice changed and he scolded: "I can't polite me when I see you, you..."

The person who came was Zheng Weigang, the comprador of the Zen Foreign Company. Since he joined the Zen Foreign Company, he thought that he would choose a promising son to send him to Germany to study. After he finished his studies, he was like the comprador of HSBC Bank, and the comprador of the father and son succeeded him. However, Germany was too far away after all, and the old lady at home didn't worry, so she didn't go there. Last year, she heard that the Education Association would run a regular German university, so she sent her son.

"Oh. Mr. Zheng, don't be polite. The noble man is both good at character and academic performance. He will definitely be the most popular among people in the future." Cai Yuanpei just heard that he donated 10,000 taels, which was no less. He had to be very polite to the financial owner.

Zheng Wei just laughed happily. He liked this the most for his five sons. Now that Cai Hanlin said that he was good at both finished products and academics, how could he be unhappy? He was happy and said a few more polite words. Seeing that there were people coming up to talk to each other, he accused him of the crime and walked away.

"Jimin. What you said today is good. Whether it is Western or Chinese, everyone should be more considerate. Drink more tea and communicate more, so don't call me." The person who came up was Yu Huizu, who just donated 100,000 taels on behalf of Tianzi.

"Brother Hanzhang, I want to thank you again this time." Cai Yuanpei said. He knew that the 100,000 taels were not only paid by Tianchu, Tiantong, Tianbao, and Tianran companies, but also Yu Huizu's own money.

"What are you thanking? You are doing the right thing." Yu Huizu said modestly, "Jing Chang said that knowledge is power. I didn't understand it before, but now I feel that this sentence makes sense. You say that foreigners are better than us are just this knowledge? Now we run a university and learn everything they know. Then we should not be afraid of them in the future."

Yu Huizu's statement is right or not. Cai Yuanpei couldn't say what the financial owner was wrong, but just said, "Brother Hanzhang, it seems that Lu Xing is getting bigger and bigger. Alas, it's only been so many years, and I didn't expect that the wasteland has become like this now."

"Haha. It's expanding there." Yu Huizu said happily, "The caustic soda last year was not enough, and I have to expand again this year. Alas. This pancreas is really good."

"It's certainly easy to sell if you sell it so cheaply. Now the boss of Xiangmao Foreign Company, Bo Kier, hates you Tianbao Company to death." The visitor was Yu Qiaqing, the match king and comprador of the Dutch Bank. He now regrets that he only invested in matches and did not invest more in soap, but he can't blame him. At that time, Xu Huafeng's small soap factory that was broken and not garbage, who would have thought that he would become a giant today. Especially the method that the laboratories had come up with hydrogenated soybean oil in lard, the cost would plummet, and caustic soda was also produced by their own. Such low cost forced the British people of Xiangmao Soap to scream. But after all, there was no unfair competition law in this era. Luban was outside the concession and had a gun-protecting factory team. He had no place to do anything to do it. He could only watch the market share drop little by little.

"Hey, Ade, you don't have a share of Tianbao Company. How can you help others?" Yu Huizu said. Soap is a high-profit commodity. Before Tianbao appeared, the most famous ones in Shanghai were Meicha Soap and Xiangmao Soap. Meicha Soap was just bought by Tianbao Company. Now the only one who can compete with Tianbao is Xiangmao. In fact, Xiangmao Foreign Company is just a trader. Soap is produced in the UK and shipped to Shanghai for sale. This foreign company was established in 1892 and has a deep relationship in the concession. Yu Huizu didn't know how to deal with it for a while.

"Haha." Seeing Yu Huizu's tone now, Yu Qiaqing was very funny. When he opened a MSG factory the year before yesterday, he was afraid of a lot of money. "Brother Han Zhang, this Xiangmao Foreign Company is the five major overseas companies in Shanghai. Our soap price is low now, and something will happen sooner or later. Chen Bingqian, the comprador of Xiangmao, came to me once, hoping to reconcile with us, and everyone orders a price, so that we don't lose both sides."

"What both sides are hurt? I still think the price is high now." Yu Huizu knew that his factory was outside the concession, and foreigners had no choice but to deal with him. The soap company had acquired many big shares, so he was very strong. He had no objection to Xiangmao Soap, but in the Gengzi year, Xu Huafeng was sued by Xiangmao Foreign Company. The British said that Xu Huafeng's trademark "Xiangyi Soap Factory" was a sign of their "Xiangmao". Xu Huafeng was determined by the Commission for Trial at that time to argue the difference between "Mao" and "Xiang". Later, Xu Huafeng had a deep background. Under the protection of the Chinese party, there was no penalty, but he was forced to agree to change the card. Yu Huizu knew about this blocking matter, so he had no good feelings for Xiangmao Foreign Company, and he had no good feelings for their Guangdong comprador.

"Brother Hanzhang, harmony brings wealth, harmony brings wealth. Didn't we negotiate with Bu Neimen the same year before yesterday?" Yu Qiaqing understood the situation of Tianbao Company, but he knew better about Xiangmao's situation. If it was not done well, something would happen to Lu Xing.
