Section 530 Set sail for your dreams
Yue Zheng talked with Wang Fulin and Su Muyun for a long time, and they also talked very deeply.
But what is the goal of future trade, they do not have a solution, after ten years of squeezing out the gold and silver of Europe, treasures, what is still worth trading here, is it the land next?
If you want land, such a big piece of Africa, who cares about Europe.
In the end, Yue Zheng only said one sentence: "What you thought of, do you really think that Lord Bai doesn't know?" In a word, Wang Fulin was convinced, and he would never refute this sentence. In fact, in the matter of business, once the things they are worried about are taken care of, they will definitely no longer be a problem, and the big problem will not be a problem.
The next day, the port of Izmir.
10,000 Byzantine soldiers and 3,000 Ming soldiers lined up here, not to start a war, but to maintain order.
"I, my name is Maria, I'm from Mariupol, I have a younger brother and a younger sister at home, my younger brother applied to join the Suez Guards and is training. My sister, like me, is ready to go to the great Daming! "A beautiful girl introduced herself very basically fluently in Chinese.
After the introduction, he actually wrote his name in Chinese on paper with his own pencil.
After two months of intensive Chinese training, it is already very good to have such a level, you must know that Chinese is definitely the most difficult language to write on the earth, and there is no one, the most difficult to learn.
A young civil official picked up the woman's introduction document and took a look, which said Cooking B, Female Red Ding, Appearance Jiaqing, Winemaking Hypothyroidism, Health A ......, a long evaluation document, especially the appearance of this Jiaqing, very said, A is beautiful, Qing is innocent.
Outsiders may not be able to see it. The civil officials of the Ming Dynasty knew it, and his task was only to issue the approval documents.
There were hundreds of people in such a line, and more than 50,000 people were in line, men and women, older and younger.
Three of the most exciting options. The first is the Suez Guard, the banner of this guard is not Byzantium, nor Egypt, but the Ming and Byzantine guards, what no one knows what to do, and at the same time they are being trained, their task is to manage the Ottoman slaves.
Many good men, especially young men, are willing to choose this.
The high income was a little, but more so that they managed the Ottoman slaves. Having been oppressed by the Ottomans, they enjoyed the job and were confident that they would satisfy the Empire from the East and the Byzantine Empire.
The second in line is to marry Daming.
What Daming gives is a two-way choice, that is, the other party likes you, and you also like the other party. The information here is already available, and the optional information on Daming's side is also being prepared.
The third is the Ming Dynasty's overseas territory, which can rent land or work.
This is the best option for the elderly, dragging the family. Their homeland was still in the hands of the Ottoman Empire, and the Byzantine Empire had just been restored. Even the capital Constantinople has not been taken back, and I don't know how long it will take to get back to my hometown, so it is a good choice to go to a place where you can live peacefully.
The young civil servant checked the documents and put a stamp on them: "You can go and get your ticket." ”
"Thank you, sir!" The girl named Maria actually used the Great Ming Ten Thousand Blessings, and her body bent down. The career line on his chest was too high-profile, and the young civil official had already received a lot of stimulation this morning, and under the super impact of this strong career line, nosebleeds spurted out.
But his eyes were deeply attracted by the career line, and he couldn't move away if he wanted to. Nosebleeds. Straight eyes.
"Your Excellency!" The girl was frightened, this noble man of the Ming Dynasty was not sick.
Hahaha! The soldiers in charge of maintenance around laughed wildly, they have long seen a lot of such a situation, the marine battalion is basically veterans, they are not bad, most of them are people who have married wives and had children, so they still have a little immunity to women, but many soldiers in the water division are soldiers.
The least is seventeen years old.
Where is the Ukrainian ethno? There is a very obvious sentence written on the manual of the 100 households of the Daming Water Division: Lord Bai said that Ukraine is a place where beautiful women are in disaster, and then other officials added a big word of caution at the end. This means to be cautious in the face of Ukraine.
Athens is also a place of beautiful women, but compared to these Ukrainian beauties that the Ottoman Empire snatched.
What is a disaster for beautiful women, at least the officers and soldiers of the Daming Water Division have deeply understood. There were several young lieutenants, who, after obtaining the consent of the upper echelons of the water division, married Ukrainian beauties. What is a disaster, the soldiers of the Daming Water Division after the cave house will know, what is a disaster for beautiful women.
The first understanding is that there are too many beauties to count, and there are nine beauties out of ten.
The second understanding is that fanatical Ukrainian beauties, innocent women from white families, can also make the strong captain of the Daming Water Division unable to get out of bed the next day, how terrible. There are a few younger and older people who want to take a concubine, and most of them hesitated after hearing this rumor, this is related to the face of men, young people can't stand it, they are nervous!
A lieutenant slapped a handkerchief on the young civil official's face: "Boy, marry her if you want to." ”
"I'm just an eighth-class official, and I don't have any money." The young scribe blushed.
A bearded military attache from Byzantium also laughed and asked in the local language: "Maria, this young official from the Ming Dynasty likes you, but he is not wealthy, so he is nervous about you." ”
"I don't want a bride price, I don't!" What is the bride price, Ukrainians already know that if they marry to the Ming Dynasty, those who marry them will have a rich bride price, and the bride price is the meaning of all kinds of materials, gold, silver, and coins.
"Okay, you don't have to get on the boat." The bearded Byzantine officer laughed.
The Ming people were nominally monogamous, but they had concubines.
Orthodox Christians reluctantly accept this in order to survive. But it also puts forward a requirement, if a Ming man wants to remarry, then there must be an agreement before, and the consent of the married wife and concubine must be obtained, and a certain amount of compensation must be given. In fact, it's somewhat close to the European way of lovers.
So Orthodoxy and believers are barely able to accept it.
And there is another thing that the men of the Ming Dynasty think are very good for the believers of the Orthodox Church, that is, the rule of the Ming Dynasty is that the husband of the wife is not allowed to approach the woman of the husband, which is subject to severe punishment.
Daming's Qinglou is the same as the prostitutes here, this can't be controlled.
The maiden, Maria, didn't need a ticket, she stayed here. Formal ceremonies are very important, and marriage here requires the gift of the Lord in the church first, and then the etiquette of the Ming Dynasty. They could not see each other again until they were married, and she was soon taken to a camp.
This camp is specially prepared for young women who are about to marry the Ming people.
These people have one thing in common, that is, all of their appearances are clear, without exception. Of course, there are not only Ukrainians, but also Byzantines, Athenians, Bulgarians, etc., young women of at least ten nationalities in Europe, who want to learn Chinese and learn the etiquette and thoughts of the Ming Dynasty.
Seeing from afar that the beautiful Maria was taken away, the young scribe turned his head to look.
Bang, the captain slapped him on the back of the head: "I'm going to see enough for a few days, people here are waiting." "That's right, the people in line don't dare to urge, but who can say that they are not in a hurry. If you get a ticket, you will have the opportunity to go to Daming, of course, there are those who can't get it, and those who get the next batch.
Seeing that the scribe was busy again, the captain smiled at the Byzantine bearded soldier and gestured a few times, and said half Chinese and half Greek: "Just his little body, hehe!" ”
The language is not completely comprehensible, but the meaning is the same, and both of them laughed wildly.
The Byzantine officer also said: "In the evening, after the work is over, go to the Wa to drink." ”
"Okay, let's go together." I still don't understand the language, but I understand the speech of the word, and with this smile, I understand!
Here with the army brought three thousand widows, they made a fortune, of course, the boss lady led by Mo Chou behind the scenes earns more, and the guards will also have a profit.
Chic oriental balls, restaurants, and nightclubs strongly attracted the Byzantines.
The port of Izmir, which is the most heavily guarded and powerful port of the Ming and Byzantines, is related to the future food security, so there will be no loss. The rest of the ports are not unimportant, it's just that at the moment the forces are tight, and there are not enough real soldiers on the Byzantine side.
If an ordinary farmer wants to become a soldier, he or she must be trained for at least three months or even half a year. Neither Blue Ocean nor Caesar believed that peasants with pitchforks could immediately become soldiers, and the combat effectiveness of these people required very rigorous training before they could form combat effectiveness.
Three days later, ships began to enter the port.
The cabin is divided into three classes, the bottom compartment must be the goods, a cabin is inhabited by six people, the space in the cabin is not large, but compared to the European kind of ship that transports African slaves, the ship that the Ottomans pulled them here is a hundred times better, at least everyone has a locker in addition to the bed.
As well as every four barns, a separate toilet.
Of course, they had to do things like get seawater on the deck to clean the toilets.
The ocean, for many beauties on this ship, is the beginning of the dream, to leave here and live a rich life. The little official said that he was not rich, but no one believed it, and he could only say that compared to the entire Ming Dynasty, they were not rich. Because silk can be worn as regular clothes, you can easily buy valuables that only the nobles are reluctant to buy here.
Therefore, the little official is not poor, but the others in the Ming Dynasty are too rich.
Think about it, those Ming women who used to be in the camp were dressed here, at least at the duchess level. (To be continued......)
