Chapter 562: Records of Observations
On the evening of his arrival in Manchester, the capital of Australia, Zhao Shijie, as Minister of Foreign Trade, and the centrist leaders had a cordial conversation with King Fu on behalf of the Australian government.
The two had a very harmonious conversation, welcoming the arrival of King Fu to the Australian government, and also explaining to him that the Australian government welcomes senior talents like them the most.
High-level talent, although Zhu Yousong doesn't understand this word very much, but there is a satisfied smile on his face, at least in Australia, they still take themselves seriously.
It's okay to have the treatment you have now, as long as you can live a stable life, it's better than anything else.
After a long time, King Fu did not know much about the social structure of Manchester City, but sitting in the carriage and looking at the houses outside through the car and boat, he could see that Australia was more prosperous than Hong Kong.
If the two cities are very much compared to each other, then Hong Kong and Manchester are like the difference between a provincial capital and a small town, although Manchester City is not as big as Nanjing City, but it is more exotic.
There are all kinds of people on the street, there are red hair and yellow hair, these people Zhu Yousong has seen more in Hong Kong, but compared to Manchester City, it is still incomparable.
Manchester City is the capital of Australians, and the most surprising thing for him is that there are no walls on all sides, only batteries are set up in coastal ports, but the dozen or so black holes of cannons do make people shudder.
He had also seen this kind of artillery on the dockside of Hong Kong, which should be the most important weapon of Australia, otherwise it would not have been placed in the harbor for defense.
Although the official who entertained him was equivalent to the Sanpin member of the Ming court, this did not make him feel that he was neglected, and afterwards the service staff said that the person who spoke to him cordially was the youngest and most promising senior official in Australia, and he was likely to become president in the future.
Since you want to settle in Australia, you will have a certain understanding of Australia's official system, and the future president is equivalent to the emperor of the Ming Empire, which means that young officials are future princes.
Zhu Yousong thought of this in his mind. There is no shortage of people who have a more profound impact on Zhao Shijie's kind smiling face, this person is a person who learns Wudou, knows astronomy and geography, it is not easy to say that he can have such knowledge at this age, and it is no wonder that he can become a candidate for Chu Jun.
This time, King Fu came with the ship not only his family, but also some ministers who were loyal to him, and the expenses of such a large group of people were not a small amount, and now they were not as good as before in Nanjing, and they had to spend money on everything when they arrived in Australia.
Although the Diaoyutai State Guesthouse is comfortable, Australians only provide free food and accommodation for one month. After a month, he was still required to move out, which was a special place for receiving foreign envoys and leaders.
For this, Zhu Yousong also understood that it was impossible to live here all the time, so he entrusted the immigration counselor who was the first to receive him to help find a house.
The counsellor recommended him to the north of Manchester City, where a large number of Australian women and high-ranking officials gathered, and the security environment here is also the best among the four urban districts of Manchester City.
Because of the majority of high-ranking officials, there will be patrols on all the streets 24 hours a day, and the most important thing is that there are many gentry and merchants from the Ming Dynasty who live here.
Zhu Yousong listened. This feeling is good, this place is the most suitable for yourself, this kind of safe place is for people to live, although I heard that the largest villa is only about 300 square meters. It's not as big as the royal palace where you used to live, but after all, in Australia, you have to accept the culture here.
It can be said that everything in Australia is new to him, but there is one thing to prove. The best place to live in Australia is not actually Manchester City, but the future capital Canberra, which is currently under construction, and there is no industrial pollution here. The environment is the best.
Of course, now, Zhu Yousong can only temporarily live here and buy a house.
What he wanted most was to build a manor by himself, and then take his family and diehards to live in, and I heard the high-ranking official say that Australia and many officials have their own manors, and when they have nothing to do, they will go to live in the manor for a few days, riding horses and hunting and so on.
Such a beautiful life is simply more comfortable than a pig, Zhu Yousong is originally a lazy person, and he is naturally envious.
Of course, Zhu Yousong is not the only one who is full of fantasies about everything in Australia, his princess and children are also envious of the toys that children play with on the street.
The women are very fond of those who wear beautiful and improved Hanfu long skirts, and if they weren't familiar with the place, it is estimated that they would have run to the street long ago.
I heard that monogamy is practiced in Australia, and women have a very high status in both the family and society.
This makes the women of the Ming Dynasty, who are deeply educated by the tradition, dare not imagine that this kind of thing cannot happen in the Ming Dynasty.
What kind of existence will women be when they have status, and they fantasize about whether they are in charge of the world like the Empress Wu in history, is this really the case, and are the men in Australia willing.
But what they didn't expect was that at the dinner party, the Australian men's care and courtesy to women explained everything, and this kind of thing may really exist in Australia.
But then again, these women who are deeply oppressed by feudal ideology will probably not be able to accept such a thing for a while.
In their eyes, since ancient times, they have been male and female protagonists, so they just hold a look at this kind of thing, and they will not really discuss feminism with Zhu Yousong.
However, the Australian Women's Federation may not let them go, and let women accept modern knowledge and accept the influence of the Australian Women's Federation.
At least not yet, the people from the Women's Federation will come to the door to promote that women should hold up half the sky.
This will definitely be a catastrophic blow to Zhu Yousong, he thought that everything would be fine when he arrived in Australia, but he didn't know that even if he divorced his wife, he would have to pay alimony every month.
Australia is good at everything, that is, in their opinion, the most incapable of giving women rights, Australia has done the best, and the government is also very supportive of the protection of women's rights and interests, and the government's equal education for men and women has been written into the law.
Therefore, if these people who come with Zhu Yousong in the future beat women or do not let girls receive education, they will be punished by the law, and the highest sentence may be imprisonment.
Of course, it is generally mainly based on education fines, after all, there has not been such a thing in Australian law, and the Australian education system is that nine-year compulsory education is free.
So far, there has been no legal punishment for not allowing girls to go to school, and even if there is, community workers will come to persuade them.
