1281 Anecdotes of America (9)

It is inevitable that the Ming people who came to the Golden Mountain City in the Americas were full of fear and hesitation about this unfamiliar land. Therefore, Wang Shanzhi did not have much idea about their reaction.

And the imperial soldiers at the port docks did not embarrass these Ming people. As long as they line up in order, that's fine.

After these Ming people lined up in line according to the requirements, they took them to a camp that had been built long ago on the northern outskirts of Jinshan City.

Here, it is specially designed to house new arrivals.

Because Zhao Hongyu had already said that Jinshan would be used to house immigrants from the Ming Dynasty, Wang Shan had already made all preparations when he developed and built Jinshan City.

Along the way, these immigrants, who were guarded by the Imperial soldiers, also saw a different environment from the Ming Di.

Indian with feathers on his head and oil paint on his face.

and the pedestrians of the Song Empire wearing strange costumes, all of which brought these Ming people a very novel feeling.

At the same time, they also saw a lot of buildings along the way, and these buildings are somewhat similar to the buildings of the Ming Dynasty.

The buildings of the courtyard can be seen everywhere in Jinshan City.

This very oriental-style architectural complex is not surprising that it will bring this familiar feeling to these Ming people.

Unlike the city of Manhattan, Ontario and Quebec, the architectural style of the city is completely in accordance with the Oriental style.

Manhattan, on the other hand, is built in Gothic and Baroque styles, and even mixed with the architectural style of the modern countryside of the later United States.

Because Ontario City is positioned as a heavy industry city, the buildings are mostly very rugged types, and the mix and match style is more serious. As a result, Ontario's achievements are somewhat akin to the punk world.

Quebec, on the other hand, is a completely European-style idyllic in another time and space.

Come to think of it, it all had to do with the personal preferences of the local governor.

In this regard, Zhao Hongyu completely let go and let his subordinates plan and develop.

In his opinion, it is also a good thing to have more architectural styles in his own country.

Later, when the empire has stabilized and some infrastructure has been built. You can live here and there for a while according to your preference.

And different architectural styles and environments can also make you feel fresh.

I have to say that the environment of the American continent in this era is really not to be said.

Dense forests, rich in flora and fauna.

The construction of the courtyard house in this environment makes the people who live in it have the illusion of living in heaven.

In this era, the ecology and various resources and environment of the Americas have not been destroyed by man.

This completely pristine environment. As long as it is well preserved, it is also a very valuable treasure.

It's like America in another time and space, which has been destroyed by Europeans for more than a hundred years.

Of course, after entering modern times, the United States and Europeans have also begun to pay attention to environmental protection. But even so, they cannot erase the fact that they have wreaked havoc on the environment in the Americas.

Don't look at another time and space, people who have been to the United States seem to think that the environment over there is very good.

But in reality, the environment at that time was really far and far worse than the environment of the seventeenth century.

Courtyard houses with blue bricks and red tiles. Sitting among the towering ancient trees, surrounded by the singing of birds and flowers, the eyes of the Ming people on the road widened.

And the tall walls in the distance, as if to tell them the strength of the empire.

Pedestrians walking on the street. Each of their faces was full of confidence, which shocked this group of Ming people.

Although the Akito of this era were also confident, this self-confident group was the gentry class. For example, those people at the bottom are actually still so ignorant, miserable and confused.

But here in the Americas. You don't see such people at all.

Even the Indians.

In fact, it is not surprising at all that the Indians themselves are optimists.

Not to mention the Chinese genetic people of the empire, who have knowledge and wisdom beyond this era. They certainly believe that they can create a happy life.

How can you be like Akito, confused and uncertain about the future?

Of course, today's Ming Dynasty, because of the rise of the Northern Houjin, coupled with a series of military defeats. and the frequent natural disasters in various places, I have long dared not think about a happy life in my heart.

At the same time, those people who were high in the Ming Dynasty, with status, status and power, were still swallowing up the land of the people at the bottom. In order to survive, the forced people had to become homeless bankrupts.

How can you make these people who have become bankrupt have a vision for the future?

In such an era, a bankrupt person is basically the same as a dead person.

If you don't have a job, you can't eat enough, and sooner or later you'll starve to death, right?

So, if you want them to have self-confidence, how can it be?

Although these Ming people did not enter the city, they were already shocked by the prosperity outside the city alone.

These people could not imagine and believe that there was such a bustling city on this side of the distant sea.

The population of Jinshan City with archives is more than 800,000.

Ninety percent of them are indigenous Indians in the region.

When Wangshan landed on Jinshan and began to be built, many small Indian tribes had already taken refuge in it.

In addition, Wang Shan led his army to defeat several super tribes in this area through a campaign. For a time, the military strength of the empire was demonstrated, so it attracted more tribes to join the empire.

Therefore, in just over a year, the population of Jinshan has expanded to more than 800,000.

What's more, Wang Shan continues to cultivate thousands of Chinese genetic people through virtual traders every month to supplement it.

Therefore, the current Jinshan is not as desolate as it used to be.

Instead, it became a large city with a population of more than 800,000.

Such a city, if placed in the modern era of another time and space, may be just two county seats.

But in this era, a city with a population of 800,000 is already very large.

Even in the capitals of Europe at this time, the population was not necessarily so large.

London, at this time, had a population of only a few hundred thousand.

Paris, France. The population is only more than 200,000, but less than 300,000.

This is still a relatively famous capital.

The capitals of the remaining countries have a population of 80,000,000 or 90,000.

Even the capital of the Ottoman Empire, because of its location at the crossroads of Europe and Asia, had a population of more than 400,000.

Egypt, the capital of North Africa, has a population of just over 400,000 because of its thriving commerce.

It can be seen that the population of more than 800,000 people in Jinshan City is really not small.

Of course, because of the time period when Jinshan City was established, the population of Jinshan City certainly cannot be compared with the imperial cities on the east coast.

Today, the city of Manhattan has a population of more than 1.6 million people. This is also because some of the surrounding villages are scattered to the surrounding villages under construction.

If you add the population of those villages, the population of Manhattan will exceed 2 million.

Ontario is even smaller, with a population of just over 1.7 million people in the entire region's rural towns combined.

In Quebec, there are more than 1.3 million people.

Extrapolating from when the city was founded, the city of Manhattan was the first to be founded.

The other two cities are later than the city of Manhattan, not to mention the city of Gold Mountain on the west coast.

But even so, Jinshan City also brought a great shock to these Ming people.

Outside the city of Jinshan City, there are also many building complexes, as well as small shops and markets of a community nature.

Meantime. There are a lot of shops here, and even if the Ming people walking on the road didn't go in to take a look, they saw a lot of them at random.

Especially outside the door of the large department store outside the city, the crowd of people coming in and out. and the large building of the supermarket made these people stunned.

The temporary residence of these Ming people was a large camp surrounded by barbed wire.

The house is built entirely of materials purchased from the metaverse, with red brick facades and cement slab roofs.

Immigrants from the Ming Dynasty. I've never seen a building like this?

So, they were very curious about it.

However, novelty is novelty. The fear of the future prevailed in their hearts.

Because they don't know what these people from a strange land have brought them to this place to do.

Therefore, the faces of these Ming people were pale, and their bodies trembled uncontrollably.

"Line up one by one, you're going to stay here for a month. It is also to check whether you are sick or not, and at the same time let you learn the rules here. After waiting for a month, I can let you go. ”

At the gate of the camp, an Imperial official stood, shouting loudly to the Ming people about their arrangements.

It turned out that after these Ming people came to Jinshan, they could not immediately get the land.

They also had to stay in this camp for a month, learn the laws and regulations of the empire and here in Jinshan, and also check that they were not sick.

Of course, there are benefits to doing so.

First of all, the epidemic can be effectively controlled, and they have brought some uncontrollable major diseases and disasters to Jinshan.

At the same time, considering the more than four months of sea voyage, these people's bodies must be very weak.

It just so happens that in this month's time, you can also take care of it.

For them, the empire can be regarded as doing its part.

Of course, learning the laws and regulations of the empire can also make them understand the system here in the empire. When the time comes, the province will break the law, which will have an impact on the security of the empire.

These Ming people honestly lined up and walked into the camp one by one from the big iron gate. To their bewilderment, there was a man wearing a white cloth covering at the gate, spraying some white powder and liquid on their bodies.

It's weird.

In this way, the first wave of immigrants from the Ming Dynasty walked into their short-lived 'homeland' where they were about to live for a month...... At the same time, their hearts are still filled with fear of the unknown and the future...... (To be continued......)
