Chapter 2845: era
Depressing his emotions, Li Yun opened the declaration and looked at it. In the old days, the speed of obtaining information was very slow. Newspapers were a very effective means of obtaining information from the outside world. The great men also inferred from the newspapers the changes in the situation in countries around the world.
At the first glance in the newspaper, Li Yun saw an impassioned article.
"The Tragedy of Severing Fingers to Save the National Congress in Hankou"
Take another look at the date in the newspaper, May 31, 1912, three months after the fall of the Qing Dynasty, when the collision between old and new ideas was the most intense.
The article "The Tragedy of Severed Fingers" talked about one of the issues that literati were most concerned about during this period:
How to maintain the five thousand years of culture of Huang Xuan country?
The article said that at the inaugural meeting of an organization called the National Salvation Congress in Hankou, a young man took the stage to give a speech, scolding foreign goods, and pointed out that after foreign clothing sold nationwide, how many domestic people lost their jobs, populism was no longer harmful, etc .
After speaking, the young man drew a knife and severed his fingers, and read four big **** characters: Please use domestic products.
"This is really..."
Li Yun's mood became more complicated when he saw it.
