    "The people of Ming Dynasty are simply incredible!"

    "After arriving at West Pole Port, we rested briefly at West Pole Port for a day and then continued eastward. After all, time is precious. On the battlefield in Europe, we were under great pressure and needed sophisticated weapons from the Ming Empire.  "

    "I have been to the South Caucasus many times. It has waterfalls, springs, mist, and mountains. It seems like a paradise without any pollution."

    ¡°The scenery is absolutely beautiful!¡±

    "Of course, what really impressed me was the Caucasians and Georgians in the South Caucasus, especially their women. They are definitely the best women in the world. They are graceful, fair-skinned and very gentle. They are good at taking care of themselves.  man."

    "As for their men, they are tall and strong. They are natural warriors and the best slaves."

    "From West Pole Port all the way east to East Pole Port on the west side of the Caspian Sea, the Ming Dynasty recruited a large number of Caucasians and Georgians to build a spacious cement road. This is a cement road that runs from east to west."

    "I don't know what kind of magic the Ming people used. These Georgians and Caucasians didn't resist at all, and it was difficult to see a few Ming people supervising the work, but they worked very seriously and carefully.  .¡±

    ¡°I still remember that when our Ottoman Empire acquired the South Caucasus, the Georgians there often resisted the rule of our great Sultan.¡±

    ¡°The Ming Dynasty implemented an extremely effective ruling strategy here, making these rebellious Georgians and Caucasians willing to be loyal to the Ming Emperor.¡±

    ¡°I heard that the taxes levied by the Emperor of Ming Dynasty here were the same as those levied in mainland Ming Dynasty, and he also respected the beliefs of the local people.¡±

    ¡°¡­¡­.¡±

    "Great Lord, I finally set foot on the cement road. I don't have to endure the bumps on the road. I sit on the four-wheeled carriage and enjoy the journey comfortably while looking at the scenery along the way. If I feel tired, I can also lie down.  Let¡¯s take a nap in the carriage.¡±

    "I swear I really love this concrete road. From what I heard along the way, this cement road has been built all the way to Dongji Port. At Dongji Port, you can take a boat across the Caspian Sea to the Hezhong area, and the Hezhong area is also  There is a concrete road that can go all the way east to the capital of Ming Dynasty."

    ¡°After I went back, I wanted to advise the great Sultan that it would be so convenient to build such a cement road in our Ottoman Empire.¡±

    ¡°The concrete road on the platform won¡¯t even have any bumps when the horse-drawn carriage is on it. The cement-hardened road is not afraid of being washed away by rain or exposed to the scorching sun. It can be used for many years without maintenance.¡±

    "The hotel we visited today was called an inn by the Ming Dynasty people. It was not opened by the Ming Dynasty people, but by local Georgians."

    "Business is very booming. Many businessmen from the Ming Dynasty who passed by are resting and eating inside. These Ming people are very qualified. Even when they drink, they drink quietly and never make any noise. Moreover, as the owners of this land, the Ming people  They actually paid all the expenses exactly."

    ¡°People from the Ming Dynasty are generous and want the best food and drink, so the hotel owner likes to receive these people from the Ming Dynasty.¡±

    "After paying an extra silver dollar, I learned a lot from the boss. I finally figured out why the Georgians and Caucasians, who have always had a rebellious spirit, were so obedient."

    "The first thing is that the Ming Empire regarded this place as its own land and home, and also regarded the Caucasians and Georgians here as its own people."

    ¡°We treat these people the same as we treat the people of the Ming Dynasty, and there is no deviation. Perhaps the only deviation is that the people here must learn the language and writing of the Ming Dynasty.¡±

    "There is no difference between the taxes collected by the Ming Dynasty here and the taxes collected in the Ming Dynasty. Regarding the most important agricultural tax, the Ming Empire only levied about one-tenth of the tax."

    "This tax rate is very, very low!"

    "The hotel owner said bluntly that when they were ruled by the Kingdom of Georgia, they had to pay at least half of the harvest to the king and nobles. Now under the rule of the Ming Dynasty, they only need to pay one-tenth of the tax, so everyone's life has suddenly improved.  Much better.¡±

    ¡°In addition, the Ming Dynasty people built a lot of construction projects here, including cement roads that connect the east and west, connecting the state capitals, the East and West Ports, and the construction of a large number of manors, plantations, pastures, etc.  ??

    "These all require a lot of manpower. The wages paid by the Ming Dynasty people are very high, and they also provide a full meal. Therefore, it is easy for everyone to find a job. As long as they are willing to work, they can easily support a family and even make a living.  Live a good life.¡±

    "The owner of the hotel emphasized one point, that is, people in Ming Dynasty will never default on wages. So far, there has been no delay in wages."

    "The people of Ming Dynasty will not bully them. On the contrary, they will protect them. People of Ming Dynasty are very humble and polite. They treat them the same as they treat their own people. Under the rule of the Ming Empire, they don't need to worry about anything."

    "There is no need to worry about powerful countries coming in and oppressing them, because the Ming Empire is the most powerful empire. In the past, many nomadic tribes around it, such as the Mongols, Tatars, and Kazakhs in the north, they no longer dare to come here.  Even the Persians and Turks in the south would not dare to cross the Thunder Pond."

    ¡°They can finally sleep peacefully without having to worry about robbers suddenly breaking in, killing men, and taking away women and property.¡±

    "After the initial fear, they discovered the happy life under the rule of a powerful empire."

    "This is why Georgians and Caucasians will not resist. No one is willing to refuse such a life."

    "Especially for them who have been bullied and oppressed, this kind of life is exactly the life they have been pursuing."

    "The hotel owner said that this is a land that has been torn by war since ancient times."

    "In the past, whether it was the Turks of the Ottoman Empire, the Mongols of the Temuri Empire, the Persians of the Persian Empire, or the Tatars and Kazakhs of the north."

    "No matter who it is, they will get involved here when they are strong. After occupying this place, they do not regard this place as their own home or their own land."

    "But just like bandits, they burned, killed and looted here wantonly, captured and sold the men here as slaves, and snatched away the women here. They never really regarded this place as their own land, and treated the people here  Treat them as their own people."

    "So they must resist, because if they don't resist, there will be no way to survive. They have to pay tribute to the powerful countries around them in large amounts of property and women every year, which puts a heavy burden on them."

    "Everyone is like a robber. They only know how to take, but they don't know how to protect this place. They allow the nomadic tribesmen to come here to rob and plunder wantonly. Their tears have dried up and their blood has been drained, but they have also changed.  Not to have a stable life.¡±

    "Originally, they thought that the Ming people were just like the Mongols, Turks, and Persians before, and they just came here to plunder and plunder."

    ¡°But gradually everyone discovered that the people of Ming Dynasty were completely different from those bandits in the past.¡±

    "Their troops guard one side, and the Turks, Mongols, Tatars, Kazakhs, etc. all become polite when they come here. Some even dare not carry their own scimitars."

    "The people of the Ming Dynasty have no interest in plundering the poor Georgians and Caucasians. The people of the Ming Dynasty themselves are extremely rich and have no interest in robbing other people's property. They prefer to use buying and selling and exchange to get what they want.  .¡±

    "The people of the Ming Dynasty regarded this place as their own land, and the emperor of the Ming Dynasty regarded the people here as their subjects. They did little corvee and low taxes, encouraged farmers to teach mulberry fields, distributed seeds and farm tools to many poor people for free, and also brought seeds from the Hezhong area  We brought a large number of cattle, sheep and horses to facilitate farming and breeding.¡±

    "They are also hired in large numbers to build roads, river embankments, reservoirs, etc. to facilitate irrigation and prevent floods. When winter comes, officials from various states will inspect various places to ask if everyone has food and clothing for the winter.  For poor families, some clothing and food should be given to them to survive the winter."

    ¡°At first, they couldn¡¯t believe it because there had never been such a robber since ancient times.¡±

    "But gradually, everyone began to believe that all this was true. The Ming people were different from the surrounding Mongols, Turks, Kazakhs, Persians, etc."

    ¡°The people of Ming Dynasty regarded them as their own, gave them protection, and gave them jobs so that they could live a stable and prosperous life.¡±

    "The Georgians and Caucasians were originally prepared to resist the rule of the Ming Empire, but soon they began to enjoy the rule of the Ming Dynasty again."

    "The most popular people here are the single young men in the Ming Dynasty army. As long as they hear that someone is single, a large number of locals will immediately be willing to marry their daughters to him."

    "In the words of the hotel owner, they are Ming people, no longer Georgians, nor Caucasians. The two words Georgia and Caucasus represent pain, suffering, poverty, humiliation, lowliness, slaves, etc."  , and the people of Ming Dynasty represent nobility, strength, wealth, tranquility, peace and other beautiful things."

    "They all cherish this very much, for fear of losing the life they have now!"

    In the hotel, Ali Pasha slowly put down his pen after writing this and began to think.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com)"In the words of the hotel owner, they are Ming people, no longer Georgians, nor Caucasians.
