On March 31, 1492, after secret consultations, Isabella and Ferdinand signed the expulsion decree in the council hall of the Alhambra, ordering that all Jews must accept the Catholic faith within three weeks, or leave Castile and Aragon within a period of four months. But in the latter case, only 5 Malawidi's property can be taken away.

When the Jews came to Queen Isabella to plead, she told them (historical facts) that the decision was made by Ferdinand in a dream and therefore by God's will. "Do you believe this is our decision?" She told the Jewish delegates who had come to beg her to retract her ordination, "It was God who gave the king this idea in his heart. She refused to protest to her husband despite Jewish pleas. She told them: "The heart of a king, like a river, is under God's control. God changed the king's mind according to his own will. Isabella's Jewish subjects felt that the situation was irreparable.

"As long as you give me money, I can ask God to change my mind in my dreams!"

Although he knew that there was such an incident in history, Ferdinand couldn't help but feel the urge to laugh after getting confirmation from Isabella in person, and such a funny line actually came out of Queen Isabella's mouth? "Honey, did you get the wrong script?"

"What do you mean?"

"I mean, what you say (trying to straighten your face) is like a playwitten actor reading his lines and reading the script of another play......"

“……”

"Ahem...... Let's move on. ”

"Then again, some people believe that I am of Jewish descent, but I am not sure about ...... myself," Ferdinand began his excited "look at the money" mode, "Isaac Abravanel deserves to be your excellent financial advisor, and he did it on the spot, 'Oh, Your Majesty, look at us, don't treat us so cruelly.'" Why do you do this to your servant? As long as we are allowed to remain in the kingdom of Your Majesty, we are willing to give gold and silver, and give everything we have. What obedient words, Ferdinand was waiting for his words, the script of history really worked, so it would be good! Everyone is happy, I have a good reputation for money and forgiveness, and you will count my money and thank me for my kindness when you are sold! This is the highest level of extortion! This is what you asked for, I didn't force you, I'm still more tolerant......

"Don't look at me like that, I'm here for Spain." Blushing, Ferdinand made a point of mentioning the joint use of "Spain" to accelerate the full integration of Castile and Aragon, which he had high hopes for.

"You've been like this for the past ten years anyway...... When are you going to wait? ”

"Tomorrow." A very undisciplined answer.

Yes, Ferdinand's festival began at about ten o'clock in the morning of March 31 and lasted only twelve days, six hours and thirty minutes.

On April 12, a day that is so meaningful and similar in both Chinese and Spanish history textbooks, four hundred and thirty-five years later, two nationalist hooligans at opposite ends of Eurasia chose on the same day to betray, one against the common cause, the other against the common faith, as his confessed priest, Father Tomás de Torquemada, whose name is quite cheerful, almost as his name suggests, "for thirty silver coins." ”

"Thirty silver coins, is my taste so low? Judas, do you really feel unworthy of the fact that thirty pieces of silver will make you give up your position as one of the twelve disciples of Christ? Taste determines height! Ferdinand sighed at Isabella, who was numb.

Really, Ferdinand's move was not excessive, his decree (the restriction of non-proselytizing Jews) (see Chapter VI for the main content, in which the prohibition of unconverted Jews from entering the New World was added in 1493) was only aimed at the middle and upper classes of Jews with an annual income of more than 10,000 Malawedi, and the poor people were not affected, except of course those who wanted to try their luck on the American continent. Pretending to be a convert, according to this example. Don't worry that no one will report it, there will be brave men under the heavy reward, and the Inquisition is very considerate in protecting witnesses, and all of them are anonymous reports.

Do you think the Jews in Spain are really that pitiful? When the Jews left Spain, 30 ducats were swallowed in order to keep their possessions......

Awesome my brother, 11,250 Malawidi! You've broken the restriction order in one meal! I'll spit out what I eat! It's a shame that people like you are driven away like this! Tell me, who has done the same thing as you? Dude, don't do stupid things, the contents of your stomach, according to the standards of the restraining order, will not be taken away, just take half of it, oh, you can't advocate such behavior, life is precious, in order to educate you, this time I will take it all! If you don't want to accept such a punishment, see that scaffolding? The Messiah is calling you in Paradise......

As Feng Rui said, to live or to destroy is a very profound philosophical question. People who think hard about this kind of problem either have a problem with their IQ or have an unsound personality. Ferdinand didn't think there was anything shocking about his intelligence or personality, so he decided to leave this kind of question to the unthinkable, such as the sharp brother above, some merchants who put gold in the cellar, some prodigal who wanted to get the same fate as the patterned warriors in the future, and the bad man who stepped on two boats between Jesus Christ and the Messiah. Especially the second and fourth, who only know the glittering golden yellow of gold, but do not know why the flowers are so red, such stupid children should first go to the Garden of Eden, pluck a fruit from the tree of life, and then consider how to make your great death in the Iberian Peninsula......

(It is worth mentioning that the tax is taxed at a progressive rate, otherwise it would be a big joke)

Some Jews, such as Rabi-Abraham Seignon, Isabella's childhood ally, reluctantly agreed to convert. He was baptized in the Monastery of Guadalupe, where the Queen stood beside him. "Hundreds, if not thousands" were also baptized with "remorse." Is it really "remorse"? There is definitely remorse, whether it's faith or something else......

"No one has left their homes. Well, how can those rich people be willing to live a life of exile? "One of the edicts of March 31 expelling the Jews who had not been converted was still in force, and Jews leaving Castile and Aragon could only carry five Malawedi." See what the Jewish poor will think of you? Fortunately, the Jews' discipline was relatively strong, otherwise he would have been a little depressed and praised the Messiah.

The resignation of Don Isaac Abravalne is a pity. The old advisor was so impressed by the piety and integrity of the old advisor that he resigned from his position as financial adviser for many years and refused Ferdinand and Isabella's charters, despite repeated attempts to keep him. The two monarchs retained his title of "Tang" and said they would still consult him. Abravalne praised Ferdinand's kindness and tolerance, and the latter blushed almost instantly, but more than three months was enough for him to increase the thickness of his face.

"At one time, under the banner of nationality and religion, the dominant side of the ruling class plundered the capital of the minority...... The Spanish royal family began to take on bourgeois characteristics. —Marx

The 1492 Decree suppressed the power of the upper class of the Jews in Spain, causing a long-standing and far-reaching contradiction between the rich and the poor and a crisis of faith within the Jewish people...... Within the next eighty years, more than half of the upper-middle-class Spanish Jews converted to Catholicism...... The number of Jews in Spain did not decrease, and the lives of the poor were even improved, but they could not be united as closely as they had in the past, or as their compatriots in other countries, and the various classes of the Jews, either forced to make ends meet or thirst for wealth, gradually integrated into the main body of society over the next 500 years...... The decree was annulled by Ferdinand himself in 1571 at the birth of the United Empire. But neither the Rothschilds, nor any Jewish family, Jewish consortium, or merchant group, could ever occupy a significant position in the financial sphere and economic system of the United Empire, especially in America...... The Spanish Empire, which ruled half the world, closed its doors to them. (Rothschild Family History)

August 2, 1492, the day the last Jews in history left Spain, the day before Columbus's voyage.

"Go to the monastery of Rabida." Ferdinand said to the coachman. Don't know how Isabella is doing in Barcelona? The internal affairs that had been put on hold for many years during the war in Granada must have kept her busy. He is really incompetent as a king.
