1855 United States Tycoon

Alice has always been worried that Dena Miss will suddenly play with her heart, and she will disappear after playing with her. But this worry seems to be unnecessary, because after leaving Paris, Dena Miss's behavior is normal. She first arrived in Germany by train and spent two days in Frankfurt. During the period, she visited a Russian friend living in Germany introduced by Ms. Sophia, an anarchist named Sergey.

In this era of Europe, anarchism is as prevalent as socialism, and even in the era of the First International, anarchists are also an important part of the First International. Although it is different from the orthodox Marxist view, there are many contradictions, and there have been repeated struggles for the leadership of the First International. But no matter how you say it, this faction belongs to the revolutionary forces that can be united at least for now and for the time being.

But Dena's evaluation of these people is not high. Sergey is a good person with a poetic temperament. Many anarchists are like this, and this is even more obvious to those anarchists in Russia. Take Sergei, for example, his views seem to be very radical. He advocates assassination to eliminate the upper-level rulers represented by the Russian tsars and force them to "surrender to the people."

Before arriving in Europe, those who have already had a certain understanding of all kinds of "socialism" or "anarchism" or "anarchist socialism" in Europe. In her opinion, the propositions of people like Sergey seem radical on the surface, but in fact they are extremely weak in nature. The reason why they choose to assassinate this kind of method is, in essence, to avoid a really fierce, real life-and-death battle between one class and another. Sergey told Dena that they don't want an era of horror like Jacobin or Robespierre. But some other people Dena knew didn't think so. Those are some Marxists who believe that the complete elimination of the opposing bourgeoisie is inevitable.

"If we want to ruin the capitalist system and realize socialism, we must violently deprive the capitalists of the means of production, because they cannot hand over those things by themselves. The Paris Commune failed because of us. They did not decisively use violence to confiscate the Bank of France, which gave them more opportunities to counterattack. Of course, they will not voluntarily withdraw from the stage of history, they will counterattack, just like the Bourbon dynasty after the bourgeois revolution. The counterattack is the same. No, it is more intense, because landlords and nobles can become capitalists, but capitalists are never willing to become ordinary laborers!” This is a socialist named Edson that Dena met in Paris. What she said, Dena felt, it made sense. How can it be possible to count on assassinations to overthrow one class by one? Not to mention the entire bourgeoisie, it is a certain capitalist, such as her Uncle Scrooge, even if you assassinate him a hundred times, it is absolutely impossible to scare him to give up his assets. On the issue of defending own assets, whether it is Scrooge, or Morgan, or Rockefeller, they are much more determined than Sergey.

Leaving Frankfurt and taking the train for another day, Dena met her destination-the small German city of Göttingen.

No matter from which point of view, Göttingen is a small city, it can even be called a small town. Even in the 21st century, this city has only a population of about 100,000. At this time, the population is even smaller, and the entire city is only 40,000 to 50,000. Compared with other German cities, Göttingen has some unparalleled advantages. For example, at least in this era, you will never find a small town with a better environment than Göttingen in Germany.

Most other German cities are full of noise and commotion. These cities are full of chimneys with billowing black smoke, and there are deafening noises from various machinery in factories. But in Göttingen, none of this exists. This is not because the government of the German Empire pays special attention to the environment of Göttingen, nor is it because the people of Göttingen have a strong sense of environmental protection. It is because Göttingen's own conditions for industrial development are inferior to other regions.

But this has left an extremely beautiful environment for this university town. The Reine River (a tributary of the Rhine) flows slowly through the city, the water is clear and sparkling. However, there is only such a clear river water. The river flows northward. Before it can flow into the Rhine, it has already passed through several industrial areas, and when it finally flows into the Rhine, it has become harmonious. The water of the Rhine is as turbid.

The train arrived in Göttingen early. According to Ms. Sophia's instructions, Dena and Alice first went to Sonya to study here and rented a small room from the old lady who rented a house. That old lady still remembers Ms. Sophia who stopped here back then.

"Sophia was the first woman to receive a doctorate. Based on this, I won't forget her." The old lady said to Dena and Alice with a smile, "I didn't expect that after so many years, there will be two more girls. Came to me. I really hope to see you have the opportunity to refresh her record. Then I can brag to everyone that there are three female doctors in my cabin. To be honest, girls can come here. It’s not easy to come to study. But over the years, the number of female students in the university has gradually increased."

"Are there many female students at Göttingen University now?" Dena asked curiously.

"Ah, of course it's not much compared to male students." The old lady replied with a smile, "As far as I know, there are no more female students in the school than the number of fingers in two hands. But compared to Sofia's time, it is much more. At that time, Sophia was a girl in the whole school. You know, it’s not easy. But you are also amazing. Sophia had a husband to take care of her at that time, and you were still totally children. It's easy...Ah, the train you just got off must be very tired. There is a bathroom over there, shared by the tenants. Right now there is no one. There is hot water over there. You can go take a shower and sleep. ."

"Thank you, I was thinking so." Dena replied.

...

A few days later, Dena officially entered the Department of Mathematics at the University of Göttingen. As for Alice, her academic ability was not enough for her to study mathematics at the University of Göttingen. However, the University of Göttingen has other majors. In order to complete the task of protecting Dana, Alice received two years of surgical education at the University of Cleveland in advance. Now she also entered Göttingen as an exchange student. Medical school. From then on, Dena’s life was quite regular, she went to school every day, and sometimes she went to other cities in Germany to play with Alice on Sundays. At least in the eyes of Andy, who is hiding and protecting her, Dena Miss seems to have no intention of playing hide-and-seek with them.

As the old lady of the landlord said, the University of Göttingen currently has no more than ten girls, and in the Department of Mathematics, there is only Dena. In addition, Dena herself does not look bad. Although it is not considered to be a natural beauty, and does not reach the level of harming the country and the people, but a girl emerges from the mathematics department composed entirely of boys, which is like a sudden acceptance in Shaolin Temple. Female disciple. And compared to Sophia many years ago, Dena is younger and has no husband or even a boyfriend, which naturally makes the eyes of a bunch of brothers shine. Moreover, Dena's grades have always been good, and her unique self-reliance and self-reliance is also particularly attractive. As a result, a professor even joked that Dena’s influence in the Department of Mathematics is now close to Gauss, and students often refer to Dena privately as "our George Sang" or simply "Her Majesty the Queen." It's just that although there are many suitors, none of them can really enter Dena's eyes.

Time passed slowly like this. In a blink of an eye, Dena has been in Göttingen for more than a year. Everything was peaceful this year, and the only major event was probably only in March of this year, when the German Emperor Wilhelm II dismissed the iron-blooded prime minister Bismarck.

...

"The German tank is finally out of control." After hearing the news, Scrooge said to the owner's family, "Bismarck has been trying to bring a bridle to Germany, control its desire, and don't let it run around. In the end, the car crashed and the people died. However, the need for capital is by no means controlled by him alone. No matter how prestigious he is and no matter how clever his methods are, what he can do in the face of such a general trend is actually very limited. Over the years, Germany’s The industry is developing too fast, and the traditional German market can no longer digest their productivity. They have nowhere to go except for expansion."

When people of later generations looked at this period of German history, they often felt that if it weren't for the problem of the body, but also the problem of the brain, William II kicked Bismarck away, and then started violently stupidly. The navy stimulates the British, and it will not force the British into the alliance between France and Russia, and it will not lead to the outbreak of the First World War and the country will not be subjugated by it.

Later people always like to be Zhuge Liang after the incident, but in fact, because of the lack of understanding of the social and economic conditions at that time, they often think that they are Zhuge, but in fact they are just Brother Pig. In fact, the choices before Emperor Wilhelm II were quite limited. If there is no expansion, what about the goods produced by Germany's excess productivity, and to whom? Nowadays, domestic dissatisfaction has become more and more serious, and socialist activities in Germany are also increasing. Even in the parliamentary elections after Bismarck’s ouster, socialists and anarchists immediately gained Several times the previous votes and seats. If it does not expand, it may not be long before a revolution will occur in Germany.

"There won't be any problems with Dana, right?" Catherine asked.

"No, it's too early for the war. This is not the beginning of the war, but the beginning of preparations for the war." Scrooge said.
