- On the road from Chixia City to Saifati Town, a four-wheeled carriage was swaying forward.
"This road should have been repaired with cement a long time ago~"
Weiss, who was driving, couldn't help but complain. After walking on the concrete road, it was really unbearable to walk on this yellow mud road again.
Not to mention the potholes, when it rains, the roads are muddy and difficult to walk on. The cement roads here in Chixia City are easier to walk on. The roads are flat and spacious, and even rain has little impact on them.
"Mr. Wells, how long have you been here?"
On the four-wheeled carriage, Simon was looking at the scenery on both sides of the road while chatting with Weiss, asking for some useful information.
"I have been here for five years. I was originally sold here as a slave and worked on a farm to grow spices for the Ming people."
"My master is very kind to us slaves and always treats us favorably. Two years ago, His Highness Prince Ning attacked Northern Tianzhu and recruited a large number of slaves to join the army."
"My master allowed and encouraged us slaves to join the army, so I joined the army. During the series of battles against Beitianzhu, I made a lot of contributions. Not only did I gain my freedom, but I was also rewarded He acquired hundreds of acres of land, some gold and silver, and many slaves."
When talking about this, Weiss was also full of gratitude to his former master. It was precisely because his master allowed and encouraged him to join the army that he had everything he has today and lived a prosperous and peaceful life.
This kind of life far exceeds the life he lived before in Europe. In Europe, he was just a farmer at the lowest level, very poor, working hard all year round, and not even having enough to eat.
Now, he is a landowner with hundreds of acres of land, dozens of slaves, and four or five wives. He lives a life without worries about food and clothing, and his life is very comfortable.
"Is your master from Ming Dynasty?" At this time ling s h uf*ang . com Zhang Si
When Simon heard this, he thought about it and asked.
"Of course~"
"Only the people of the Ming Dynasty can have such a broad mind, as broad as the sea, and the sea is open to all rivers. The hundreds of thousands of people here in Chixia City are from all over the world, but they are integrated together. This is all the same as the people of the Ming Dynasty. Kindness leaves the relationship.¡±
Weiss nodded matter-of-factly: "I am going to visit my master this time. He is a very knowledgeable and highly respected man. Everyone in the entire Chixia City respects him very much. There are many people who used to We are all his slaves, and now we are all very grateful to him.¡±
"But he is obviously a slave owner. Why does he allow and encourage you to join the army? In any case, this is not a cost-effective deal for him. Doesn't it cost dozens of taels of silver to buy a slave now?"
Simon couldn't figure it out. Instead of squeezing and exploiting the slave he finally bought, he actually encouraged him to join the army. If he died, his money would be in vain. If the other party performed meritorious service, he would be free in the future. Yes, it's still in vain.
"So this is why my master is respected."
"He takes these things very lightly, and treats slaves very well. He says it is to accumulate merit and do good deeds."
Weiss looked at the surrounding manors and said, "Haha, I'm at the master's house. I used to farm in that field." 117fang.com 读牺
Weiss didn¡¯t seem to be very resistant to her status as a former slave. Instead, she was very happy to share her experience as a slave with Simon.
Simon looked at the manor in front of him. The endless fields with no end in sight were very large. At the same time, in the distance, you could also see strange smoking machines walking on the fields, and you could also see a large number of machines. slaves are busy in the fields.
"Mr. Simon, if you continue walking along this road for twenty miles, you will reach the small town of Sephardi. I am here."
Weiss looked at the familiar manor in front of her, looking a little excited and had no time to pay attention to Simon anymore.
"Okay, okay, thank you Mr. Wells."
Simon and his entourage got out of the car and looked at Weiss. He was already driving towards the manor.
At the entrance of a garden, there was an old man lying on a chair leisurely basking in the sun.
¡°Old Master~Old Master~¡±
When Weiss saw the old master, he shouted excitedly before he arrived.
??Simon was puzzled by this scene.
The other party was obviously a slave owner and had exploited me, but why was he still so grateful to him?
Isn¡¯t this supposed to be full of hostility?
With doubts, Simon continued to walk forward. He now wanted to arrive in the town of Sephardi early to have a good chat with the Jews there and understand the situation.
Although the road is not paved with cement, it is still very easy to walk.
While walking, look at the scenery along the way.
Huge farms divide everything neatly, with huge farmland growing a variety of crops, such as cotton, sugar cane, wheat, corn, rice, sweet potatoes, sunflowers, spices, etc.
In every farm, you can see a large number of slaves working continuously. Most of these slaves are white, and occasionally some black people can be seen.
At the same time, we can also see some Ming people riding tall horses to patrol the farms. However, these Ming people rarely see whips and sticks on their bodies. It seems that they don¡¯t like to use whips and sticks to drive. these slaves.
Twenty miles away, Simon and the others walked for more than an hour.
When Simon and others climbed over a small hill, a small town suddenly came into view, and at the same time, they could see the synagogue in the center of the town.
"Haha, it's finally here."
Simon couldn¡¯t help shouting with excitement. Zhida z.com Zhixiao
?This way, we always come from France, take a boat across the Mediterranean Sea, then go south, pass through the Red Sea and the Western Indian Ocean to reach Chixia City, and after walking for dozens of miles, we finally arrive at the small town of Saifati.
