Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Seeing Brown¡¯s dumbfounded look, Jin Xia thought for a moment and said in a low voice: ¡°We white people have no status here in the Ming Dynasty, because almost every household has several white slaves.¡±

    ¡°I don¡¯t know why you Jews can obtain legal free citizenship, but if you go out, you¡¯d better bring your identity certificate with you, and in many places, slaves are not allowed to enter for the first time.¡±

    "Although you are not slaves, your appearance will be subject to many restrictions and influences."

    "Thank you for telling me this~"

    Brown quickly expressed his thanks.

    "You're welcome~"

    "Actually, the people of Ming Dynasty are very good to us."

    Jinxia was chatting with Brown while she was busy.

    "You are a servant of the Ming Dynasty and are enslaved by the Ming Dynasty. Why do you still say this?"

    Hearing Jin Xia¡¯s words, Brown seemed very surprised.

    In his opinion, being a slave, a servant, and being exploited by others will definitely not lead a good life, but the man in front of him actually said that the people of Ming Dynasty were very good to them, which was very surprising.

    "Although I am the master's servant, I am not a free man."

    "But the young master is really nice to us. He gives us enough and rich food, and also buys us beautiful clothes and jewelry, etc. He is really good to us."

    "In my hometown, although I am a free man, I often suffer from hunger, and I don't have beautiful clothes or jewelry. My life is not as good as here."

    "As far as I know, most people in the Ming Dynasty are relatively gentle and humble. They are very particular about etiquette. At the same time, they also believe in reincarnation and cause and effect. They believe that good will be rewarded with good and evil will be rewarded with evil."

    "Therefore, although most people in the Ming Dynasty have slaves, most of them are very good to their slaves. They give them enough food and comfortable accommodation. Even if they work, they have a set time and will not let them do anything.  You work all day long."

    "If there is a festival, the slave owners will give everyone a holiday to let everyone rest and rest. Some will even reward the slaves with some money, allowing the slaves to own their own property and obtain a certain degree of freedom, within a certain range.  walk."

    Jin Xia said in detail.

    Anyway, in her opinion, life here in Daming is much better than life in her hometown.

    The same is true for many slaves she has seen and learned about. Except for the lack of personal freedom, almost all aspects of food, housing and transportation are much better than those in her hometown.

    "Why did the people of Ming Dynasty treat their slaves like this?"

    "Aren't slaves their property?"

    This puzzled Brown very much. Although European countries have become feudal countries, slaves still exist in large numbers. European slave owners absolutely want to drain their slaves dry. I don¡¯t know how many slaves have died.  On death from overwork.

    ¡°And the food slave owners gave slaves was definitely the worst food. As for the living place, it was similar to a cowshed or a pigsty, very dirty and messy.

    "Didn't I just say that people in the Ming Dynasty believe in reincarnation and cause and effect, and believe that good will be rewarded with good and evil will be rewarded with evil."

    "Most of them believe that if you are too harsh on your slaves, you will sow evil consequences and there will be bad rewards in the future; if you treat your slaves better, you will sow good fruits and there will be good rewards in the future."

    "So although there are millions of slaves in Ningguo, there have been no major slave riots so far. Most of the slaves are willing to live here."

    ¡°And Ning Guo has also promised that as long as he works conscientiously and honestly for twenty years, or makes great contributions, he can be freed and become a free and legal citizen of Ning Guo.¡±

    "The Tianzhu people, Siamese, Burmese, Slavs, Turks and so on around us were all slaves of the Ming Dynasty. Many of them were because of their meritorious service. Their masters gave them freedom and allowed them to become  Free and legal citizens of Ningguo, and also obtained a piece of land of their own here."

    Maybe it¡¯s because she met half of her fellow countrymen, Jin Xia also talked a lot, and she talked a lot with Brown.

    ¡°So that¡¯s what it is~¡±

    Brown finally understood.

    Then he looked at the people around him from all over the world, and at the uniform clothing, clothing and architecture, and asked: "There are Tianzhu people, Turks, Arabs, Burmese, Siamese, Slavs, etc. here."  , but why don¡¯t these people wear the clothes of their hometown, speak the language of their hometown, and build houses in the style of their hometown?¡±

    ¡°??Assimilation.

    Look at these people in front of you. Although some of them have dark skin and some have white skin, there is a huge difference. But at this moment, they wear the clothes, language, behavior, etc. of the Ming Dynasty and are all learning from the Ming Dynasty people.

    In a few decades or a few generations, these people and their descendants will probably forget who their ancestors are, and they will all become Ming people. Apart from the difference in appearance, there will be no difference.  The difference is even greater than that of the Ming Dynasty people.

    And this is what Brown doesn¡¯t want to see. The reason why Jews are Jews is because they insist on their own traditions and culture. Once they give up their own traditions and problems, are they still Jews?

    This is also the reason why he sighed like this. They care more about their traditions and culture than money.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
