Volume 2: The crown and the hat are all over the capital, and the spirit is full of energy and enter the foggy city Chapter 143: Not Afraid of Death
Subtitle of this chapter: Morning...well, I heard in the evening that it’s okay to die in the morning !
Why did our Master Yuan say this was a joke?
In fact, he was not saying that the restoration of the Jewish state was a joke, but that it was a joke that the current US president would publicly support the restoration of the Jewish state.
On November 2, 1917, British Foreign Secretary Arthur James Balfour wrote to Lord Walter Rothschild, Vice President of the British Zionist Federation, in which he expressed his support for the establishment of a Jewish state in Palestine.
It has to be said that the nickname "Trouble Stirrer" is well-deserved for the British Empire. This letter marked the beginning of the chaos in the Middle East that would last for a hundred years.
Of course, the British and Europeans at that time had no idea that this fire would actually burn on their own heads a hundred years later.
This public guarantee was the first declaration by a major country in the world to formally support the return of the Jews to Palestine, known as the Balfour Declaration. This declaration was also supported by various Allied Powers in exchange for the economic support of the Jews.
The Zionist movement led by Chaim Weizmann benefited greatly from the Paris Peace Conference, where they held more than 2,000 meetings and conversations with diplomats from various countries, laying a solid diplomatic foundation for the establishment of the State of Israel decades later.
Woodrow Wilson also sympathized with the Jews. He said, "I am a pastor's son and I should return the holy city to its people."
But now it is 1921. White supremacy and anti-Semitism are rampant in the United States. Most Americans believe that Wilson betrayed America's interests at the Paris Peace Conference. The relationship between the two cousins, Britain and the United States, is extremely cold.
Even if Warren Harding was incompetent, confused, or useless... he would not have come out to support the Zionist movement at this point in time.
So in the original historical line, Harding's attitude towards Einstein and Weizmann was quite cold, which greatly disappointed the two.
"you!"
The current president of the World Zionist Organization was so furious when he heard these two sentences that he took a step forward to have a good "argument" with this hateful Chinese.
Einstein quickly stopped Weizmann, who was shaking with anger, and introduced him: "This is my friend and traveling companion, the British chemist, Mr. Chaim Weizmann."
"Oh..." Yuan Yan curled her lips and said, "It's Mr. Weizmann who said, 'The Jews are the most gifted race after the Greeks'..."
Contrary to popular belief, Zionists these days are also racists.
He muttered to himself, but his voice was just loud enough for the two people in front of him to hear clearly, "I think they are a race with the most talent for wandering, just like the gypsies."
This statement made Chaim Weizmann so angry that he almost exploded. With his nose crooked in anger, he took another long step. The distance was only a palm's length.
Their eyes met, and the air was suddenly filled with the smell of gunpowder.
Fortunately, Mr. Weizmann was a gentleman who had received higher education after all. In the end, with his knuckles clenched until they turned white, he did not punch Yuan Yanshu in the face. Instead, he turned around and left with Einstein without saying a word.
"Wait, Haim." Einstein finally shook off his companion's hand and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, why don't you go up first while I talk to Mr. Yuan."
He was indeed a little angry about what Master Yuan said, but compared to his burning scientist soul, this little bit of anger was nothing.
"Hmph!" Mr. Weizmann flicked his sleeves and left without looking back.
The Grand Magister and the Grey Knight breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.
In fact, Master Yuan deliberately angered this guy and left. He and Lao Ai had something very secret to discuss. What was the point of having multiple light bulbs next to him?
Besides, it is easier to fool one scientist than two.
The most important thing is that there are many things in his lies that are "treasonous" to the Jews , and such a die-hard Zionist would certainly find it difficult to accept.
The Grand Mage looked a little grim and invited : "Mr. Yuan, look..."
"Well, Mr. Einstein," the Grey Knight said, his expression softening slightly. "Since you invited me so sincerely, how can I refuse to meet your request?"
"Thank you, Mr. Yuan."
Master Yuan raised his hand and said, "You're welcome, Mr. Einstein. I know what questions you want to ask me, but it's definitely not convenient to discuss these questions in public. Why don't we go to my room to talk... Hmm?!"
Einstein saw that the expression on his face was not right, and he could not help but look back. He immediately asked in surprise: "Haim, why are you back?"
"Because I'm a scientist too!" Mr. Weizmann said coldly, "As a scientist, I'm eager to hear Mr. Yuan's explanation for what happened last night."
Well, he was actually a very smart man. When he calmed down and thought about it, he felt that something was wrong.
This Chinese person is a great writer who can write works like "All Quiet on the Western Front" which have strong humanitarian and pacifist colors. So can a humanitarian be an extreme racist?
Furthermore, a Serbian discriminated against Jews... Weizmann had never heard of such a thing in his life.
Besides, such a great writer may have a strange personality, but he should know basic manners. Why did this Chinese deliberately irritate me?
Thinking of this, he suppressed the anger in his chest and rushed back to see what the Chinese man wanted to do.
"This..." Einstein looked at Master Yuan in embarrassment.
"Hahaha..." The latter laughed out loud, "Actually, I am also a scientist! So as a scientist, I know how much our thirst for knowledge can torment us. Since Mr. Weizmann has this interest, how can I not fulfill it? But..."
He stopped laughing, looked at the two Jews solemnly and said, "We Seres had a saying more than two thousand years ago. It is a warning to all those who seek the truth and secrets. That is..."
"In the morning..." Our Master Yuan looked up at the sky outside the window and changed his words, "If you hear the truth in the evening, you will definitely not survive until the early morning."
He took off his hat and placed it on his chest, then bowed and said, "Mr. Einstein, Mr. Weizmann. If you are not afraid of death, please follow me!"
