......

The rules of the Chinese Martial Arts Club have been written into special soul contract regulations. If any member really violates the rules, the consequences will be self-evident.

In addition, Yue Zhenshan also has a profession as an extraordinary mechanic, who can refine special extraordinary creations.

For this reason, a set of magic tools was specially refined. The main body of this set of magic tools is a book called [Book of Laws], which records the rules of the Chinese Martial Arts Club, which are actually soul contract regulations.

Chapter 126 The Wolf's Ambition

This set of magic tools refined by Yue Zhenshan is mainly based on [law books].

In addition, there are eight [Blood Orders].

The blood-sucking order takes blood-sucking as an alliance. All members who join the Chinese Martial Arts Club will hold a special ceremony when they join the club. This ceremony is to sign the terms of the "Soul Carrying Trading Technique" and use blood as a contract.

The eight [Blood Orders] are the bridges connecting the [Law Books].

Members who learn martial arts in the Chinese Martial Arts Club, if they dare to surrender to the enemy and betray the country, they will be attacked by the spell of the [Law Book]. If the lethal effect is triggered, they will directly attack their souls, die suddenly, and their souls will be harvested , into pure spiritual energy.

The names of all members who trigger the social regulations (soul contract regulations) will be displayed on the [Law Book].

With the addition of eight [Blood Orders], Yue Zhenshan can firmly control the Chinese Martial Arts Club.

Shanghai's business arrangements are in place.

Yue Zhenshan is going to keep the Shi brothers as the person in charge.

The two brothers Shi Baiqing and Shi Baiqi have followed him from the beginning, and their loyalty is beyond doubt.

Coupled with the [law book] as a constraint, Yue Zhenshan is very relieved.

In the end, Shi Baiqing was in charge of commercial affairs in Shanghai, while Shi Baiqi was in charge of the affairs of the Martial Arts Club. As an organization on the surface, the Martial Arts Club secretly controlled the underground gang (the Crocodile Gang organization). Spread martial arts among company members.

The members of the company under Yue Zhenshan's own command are the preferred targets of the Martial Arts Club.

The second is to spread martial arts to the public.

In this way, this will become a terrifying force, and workers with martial arts cultivation will become excellent sources of soldiers.

In the future when the army is expanded, excellent sources of troops can be drawn from these people.

The next day! !

Yue Zhenshan is preparing to leave Shanghai with the remaining guards. Every time he travels, some of Yue Zhenshan's guard members will be sent out to become the core members of the industry under his command here.

At the same time, Yue Zhenshan will also bring back some talents and turn them into his own heritage.

For example, this trip to Shanghai,

Those who returned at the same time as Yue Zhenshan were Ren Zhuzhu, brother Shao Axiu and Shao Yonggui.

There are also the one-in-a-million martial arts prodigy Xingzi and the mute girl. Of course, they also brought back their parents. Although they are ordinary people, ordinary people can also become excellent people.

As long as they return to Renjia Town (Renjia in Guangdong and Guangxi), their parents will be trained to be excellent workers or skilled workers.

Of course, the most important thing is Xingzi.

Yue Zhenshan is going to accept Xingzi as an apprentice, with Yue Zhenshan's meticulous education, Xingzi's achievements must be terrifying, his potential is astonishing, and he will definitely become Yue Zhenshan's most important force in the future.

"Boss, there is a fight ahead."

"It seems to be Japanese pirates."

On the way to the station, Tang Yishan, who was walking ahead, turned around and reported.

Yue Zhenshan, who didn't care at first, suddenly became interested after hearing that it was a Japanese pirate.

"Ah Shan, go over there and help beat up the pirates."

"Okay, boss."

"Um!?"

"How dare you fight in front of Gezhi Academy, the Japanese pirates' wolfish ambitions are about to start—"

In front of Yuezhen Mountain, there were two Japanese warriors who really made trouble.

On the bright side, the two Japanese samurai were just bullying the Chinese.

But in fact, the background of Gezhi Academy is not simple.

The initiator of Gezhi Academy was the then British Consul in Shanghai, Mai Huatuo, and the promoter was Li Hongzhang, an important minister in the late Qing Dynasty.

Gezhi Academy has the name of an academy, but it is not a traditional academy. It was set up in the foreign concession, and missionaries participated in its work, and Fryer was a famous missionary.However, he is different from ordinary missionaries. With the same enthusiasm and dedication as missionaries, he introduced and propagated scientific and technological knowledge to Chinese people, so that he was called by other missionaries of the Holy See as "the one who preaches science." Priest".

Fryer devoted half of her life to the science of legends, but she hoped that China would develop more Western methods, promote style, and strive for self-improvement.

Although there are missionaries involved in Gezhi Academy, it is not a church school.

It contains official funding, but is not a government-run school either.

It is a product of Shanghai, a special city, and the result of the interweaving of heterogeneous cultures. It is one of the first Chinese-Western schools in modern China to systematically disseminate natural science knowledge and cultivate scientific and technological talents.

The academy displays scientific instruments, holds scientific exhibitions, conducts scientific lectures, discusses scientific knowledge, and popularizes science. During the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China, Gezhi Academy was a veritable academic center in Shanghai.

Today, the Japanese pirates are making trouble here, in fact, they are testing the attitudes of the Republic of China government and the concession government at the same time, and testing the reality of the two.

Japan has always been a hyena-like country, fearing the strong and bullying the weak.

They have never given up their ambitions for the mainland. Since the 13th century, Japanese pirates have been active in the coastal areas of China for a long time, especially the harassment of the southeastern coast by Japanese pirates in the 16th century.

It was not until the end of the 16th century that Toyotomi Hideyoshi invaded Korea, a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty, that the Chinese and Japanese armies confronted each other head-on. As a result, the Ming Dynasty rewarded the army led by Li Rusong for victory, and later it was Magui and other Shenzhou army generals who defeated the expansion of the Japanese mainland.

Until the former dynasty of Shenzhou, the artifacts were controlled by tribes outside the customs. Under the ebb and flow, Japan seized the opportunity. After the Meiji Restoration, Japan’s national power grew day by day, and the Japanese pirates of the island country once again used the power of the whole country to gamble on the country’s fortune in war.

In 1874, Japan invaded Baodao Bay, and then withdrew its troops after paying 50 silver to the government outside the customs.

During the Sino-Japanese War, Japan openly invaded Baodao Bay.

Up to now, if there is no restraint from the Western powers, it is estimated that Japan has already begun a full-scale invasion.

They made trouble at the Gezhi Academy in the Shanghai Concession, and their purpose was to test the attitudes of the Republic of China government and the Western powers.

After a while, Tang Yishan came back here with a person.

"Xu Weiguo, thank you, Mr. Yue, for your generous help."

"Well, you're welcome—"

"I'm also a citizen of China, how can I just watch the Japanese pirates do whatever they want on the land of China? I don't know why the sir has a conflict with the Japanese pirates. Is it convenient to tell me something?"

The reason why Yue Zhenshan made a move was naturally to obtain information from the Japanese.

Although it is known that the critical time is 1937, no one can guarantee that this time and space will be the same as the previous life. Maybe some events will happen earlier due to the butterfly effect, which is not impossible.

The real reality never follows the script.

Therefore, Yue Zhenshan spent a lot of manpower and material resources to establish an intelligence agency to collect intelligence from all parties.

"It's not inconvenient. Since Mr. Yue wants to know, let's talk about the grievances involved."

"This matter has to start with my grandfather. My grandfather's name is Xu Tao, his character is Shengyuan, and his name is Xuecun. He was born in Wuxi, Jiangsu. He used to work for Shanghai Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau, designing and manufacturing ships. In 1865, he successfully trial-produced a steam-powered steamship. The wooden steamer "Huanghu", the first mechanical steamship in China was built in Shanghai Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau in 1818..."

Chapter 127 Recruiting Talent

"The reason for the conflict with the Japanese is that the Japanese insulted the ships made by my grandfather, and the Japanese insulted our iron-clad ships made in China. They said that even if there are many ships in China, they are nothing more than iron coffins."

"Also used the Sino-Japanese War to humiliate the Chinese people, saying that the Chinese people are not worthy of occupying the mainland."

"Japanese pirates, wolf ambitions, it is obvious!!"

"Xu is not talented, and wishes to inherit his grandfather's ambition. One day, he will build a giant steel ship capable of defeating Japan."

Speaking of resentment, Xu Weiguo's originally scabbed wound burst open again, and bright red blood left from his forehead.

Seeing this scene, Yue Zhenshan couldn't help clenching his fists.

The Japanese pirates are damned, it is God's business to forgive them, what I have to do is to let these beasts never be reborn.

"Brother Xu is a great talent, inheriting the legacy of our ancestors."

"To tell you the truth, Yue is also a fellow worker who is determined to save the country through industry. He has an arsenal, an iron factory, and a chemical factory to be built in the Guangdong and Guangxi regions. Now he is able to produce guns and other weapons."

"If brother Xu can trust someone like Yue, he can go to the Guangdong and Guangxi regions to show his ambition."

"Giant ships and cannons. From now on, I, Yue, will want everything, and I can't miss one. In Xiayue Zhenshan, I invited Brother Xu to help us build a giant steel ship that belongs to China."

"This..."

Hearing about the olive branch that suddenly grew out of Yue Zhenshan, Xu Weiguo hesitated.

The first time they met, Yue Zhenshan drew such a big pie for him, how did he know if it was real or fake?

"Brother Xu doubts Yue's sincerity?"

"No, since Mr. Yue dared to take the risk of offending Japan, he must be an ordinary person to help you. The reason why you can't go to Guangdong and Guangxi with Mr. Yue is because you have a lot of luggage and it is inconvenient."

"At home, there are a large number of books left by my grandfather and uncle, as well as research materials, such as "Steam Engine Detailed Explanation", "Steam Ship Design", "Coal and Iron Refining" written by my grandfather. In addition, there are translated books, such as translation He has published "Chemistry Appreciation", "Element Theory", "Chemistry Qualification", "Chemistry Calculation", "On the Change of Objects Through Heat", "Analysis of Generators" and so on.

"Um!?"

"So that's the case. Brother Xu is indeed a scholarly family with a wide collection of books, which is really rare."

Hearing Xu Weiguo's words, Yue Zhenshan was secretly happy.

These are precious knowledge inheritances, and these things must be brought to their own land.

With these books, the prototype of the university run by Yue Zhenshan in Renjia Township in Guangdong and Guangxi can pull out a relatively complete chemistry department and two majors in the mechanical department. In this way, he can train a large number of professional talents for himself.

Of course, both are smart people.

When they meet for the first time, they don't particularly trust each other, they just see through and don't tell the truth.

There is no such thing as a tiger's body that can subdue others with a shock. This kind of bloody thing is only possible unless it is the kind of macho man from heaven. Yue Zhenshan asked himself that he still doesn't have that charm.

Therefore, in order to gain Xu Weiguo's trust, he called Tang Yishan over.

"Ah Shan, you take two brothers to protect Mr. Xu."

"By the way, show Mr. Xu a tour of our industry in Shanghai, let Mr. Xu know about our business, and whether we really have the strength to manufacture giant steel ships. After reading it, if Mr. Xu is willing to go to Guangdong and Guangxi to show his ambitions, then you can Take charge of protecting him on the road."

"If Mr. Xu is unwilling, you can't make things difficult for Mr. Xu."

"This...thank you, Mr. Yue, for your understanding."

Xu Weiguo didn't expect it to be like this. Yue Zhenshan can be said to be speaking openly, which is the behavior of a real gentleman.

He didn't shy away from being in front of him, and directly said something to his face.

In this way, it seemed that he himself was a little stingy, and he couldn't help feeling guilty in his heart.However, this kind of effect is exactly what Yue Zhenshan needs. This is a conspiracy, which is to let Xu Weiguo see if he, Yue, is worth following.

The present era is at the tail end of the feudal period.

Although the New Culture Movement started to emancipate the mind, he was still bound by the ideology of the old era. Even Xu Weiguo was no exception. He also wanted to see what kind of confidence this extraordinary Mr. Yue had, daring to challenge the Japanese pirates.

After inviting Xu Weiguo again, Yue Zhenshan left and decided to leave Shanghai.

He believed that Xu Wei would make the right choice.

Taking a group of his men to Shanghai Railway Station, Yue Zhenshan was going to take the train back to Guangdong.

Previously, when I came to Shanghai by boat from Guangzhou, I encountered a sea monster attack. It was a near-miss. The sea in this time and space is truly perilous. In addition to natural weather disasters, sea monsters are also factors that cannot be ignored.

No wonder Western caravans have to send warships to protect them when they do ocean-going trade. Without the protection of warships, every sea trade is almost a gamble with their lives.
