Please talk about how Kang Youwei and Tan Sitong managed to save Emperor Guangxu.

At first, Liang Qichao, like Kang Youwei, raved about the book, meaning that he could get two million yuan. [16] This is just the fantasy of the main view. In fact, only about eight people raised 300,000 yuan, including 100,000 yuan from Qiu Shuyuan, an overseas Chinese in Nanyang. It is rare for Liang to raise money in Tantalum Island. In his letter to Tang Hedi on March 20th, 1900, he said that Tantalum Island could get100000, and now it has got 30,000 to 40,000. According to his letter of March 17, 2007 to the royalist society of Pakistan # government, the donation situation was introduced in detail. It was said that 2 people donated 2000, 7 people donated 1000 and 1000. According to this calculation, the figure of 30,000 to 40,000 should be credible. Later, in a letter to Tang Hedi on March 28, he said that he had received 40,000 yuan, and in a letter to Kang Youwei on the same day, he said that he had received 50,000 yuan, but he did not receive it.

June 17 (Friday. 2 1) In his letter to his colleagues in Hong Kong and Macao, he said that he had remitted14,000 yuan to the headquarters in Hong Kong and Macao and16,000 yuan to Japan, and said that he would donate more than 30,000 yuan. So far, * * * has raised 890,000 yuan in Sandalwood.

Before leaving Honolulu (early July)

Donation 1.2 million yuan.

Xiangshan has been active for more than half a year, and * * * has donated100000. However, not all donations of about100000 yuan can be used for the military affairs of the king of Qin. On the one hand, he spent part of it himself, on the other hand, he spent 20 thousand yuan on an American organization company [19]. Liang Qichao, like Sun Yat-sen, is sometimes a person who trusts his friends too much, and the blood and sweat of overseas Chinese are often easily deceived.

There are two other things related to fund-raising.

First, it is proposed to establish the Bank of East Asia with the Japanese Gentaro. 1March 28th, 900,

Write to # Yuan to inquire about the progress of this matter. Please write as soon as possible and tell us that the offer in Tan Ke is 200,000 or even 300,000 to 400,000. But it doesn't seem to have been done.

Secondly, I want to set up an iron and steel company in Hong Kong. First, I can raise shares. Second, I can transport ordnance to Qin's division. I don't think I've done it either.

On the issue of fund-raising, Liang, especially Kang Youwei, often speaks loudly and easily announces what he can get to inspire mainland comrades. As a result, the amount of money remitted to the front line is far from the promised amount, which sometimes not only disappoints mainland comrades, but also is easily misunderstood. After the defeat of the battle of Qin and Wang, some people said that Kang Youwei embezzled donations, which was probably related to this.
