Chapter 890

The slime is crying blood and complaining!

Since the Ming took over Mumbai, the workers have not worked again. Countless people lost their livelihoods, some went to work as coolies on the docks, others as coolies in the mines.

Skilled workers who used to be well paid are now all relying on physical strength to fight for meager wages.

Many women went into brothels, and many daughters were forced into brothels. Many children's children enter the hotel to work as child laborers.

When the Great Depression came, no one was immune.

In the port of Mumbai today, there is no European cargo ship to be seen. The ships that stopped were all Ming ships, and what was transported away was no longer industrial products, but boatloads of coal, iron ore, copper ore and all kinds of ore that the Indians had desperately dug up.

There was even wood, grain, and cotton.

The Ming were reluctant to build even an ironworks in India, and the huge country has now been reduced to a raw material supply base for the Ming Dynasty.

In addition to selling their bodies, Indians can only sell their resources.

"There's no way to live, there's no way to live. Those old men all have cooperation with Daming, and those mines have their shares.

Those people from the Ming Dynasty opened brothels and casinos in our India, and all of these places have the shares of those old men.

If you want to say that the most harmful thing is still to say the smoke house, when the factory just closed down. I was so upset that a co-worker took me to a tobacco shop and said that I would take a sip to relieve my annoyance.

At that time, cigarettes were cheap, and one copper could buy two packs. After pumping it, it is as if it is flying in the clouds.

I smoked it for more than half a year, and it didn't cost much. At first, the wariness gradually faded, and at that time, there were many tobacco houses in the city of Mumbai.

There are more smoke houses, and the prices are not cheap but are gradually rising. At first, one copper bought two packs, and later one copper one pack. Then three coppers in two packs, then two coppers in one pack.

Cigarettes are getting more and more expensive, and we don't smoke because they are too expensive. But at that time, I realized that as long as you don't smoke that thing for a day, your whole body is like thousands of ants gnawing at your bones.

Damn!

There was no way, the big guy gritted his teeth and continued to smoke. After three years of drawing, many rich people were drawn into the poor, and the poor were drawn into the dead.

Look at me, now it's not a human or a ghost. I don't want to eat, I just want to take a bite every day. As long as you get this thing, you are not human. To smoke ......! I sold my baby to smoke! ”

The once nine-foot strong man has now become a skeleton, and his father, who once regarded his little daughter as a pearl in his palm, sold his daughter with his own hands.

This is the epitome of thousands of Indian workers in the past three years, and now slimes can only lie here and wait for death.

"I've wanted to die so many times, but ...... Can...... When it comes to the end, I can't do it. The slime cried like a doll in the month.

Zilharang nodded, Da Ming is really ruthless. If you open a smoke house in Daming, you will definitely be broken into thousands of pieces. But opening a smoke shop in Mumbai is uninhibited!

"I'm wasted, you save the baby, save the baby." The slime fell to his knees and bowed to Zilharang like a Buddha.

Disappointed! Helpless! Impatient!

A plethora of emotions are tormenting Zilharang.

Daming is planning to get rid of those skilled workers, and the skilled workers in Mumbai are probably like slimes. I'm afraid it's difficult to complete the task of coming here by myself, this method is so black that there is no bottom line, and it is also black to the extreme.

"And there are no workers who don't smoke, I'm talking about turners, fitters, riveters, blacksmiths." The turner that Russia needs most now, Zilharang is now a dead horse as a live horse doctor.

I really can't do it, so I have to pick a few big smokers who are still in good health and bring them back. But this has the added benefit of being easier for these people to control.

Regardless of the survival factor, just give them cigarettes and not food, these people are fine.

"Very little, almost nothing. Almost everyone smokes this stuff, and it was so cheap in the beginning. The big guys didn't take it seriously, and then it became more expensive, but everyone wanted to quit but couldn't quit.

Only those who returned to their hometowns in the countryside, or went to work as seafarers, still had a few who did not smoke. But I don't know where they are right now, so I can ask someone to help you ask. "The slime spoke very hard and began to gasp for breath after a while.

It can be seen that his physical strength is extremely poor. It's hard to imagine what this skeleton man in front of me looked like when he was as strong as an ox before!

"Slime, help me find these people. Then I will take you to a good place, and when you get to that place you will have a cigarette and your family will be taken care of.

At least......! Zilharang glanced around: "It's much stronger than here." Now tell me where your girl was sold, and I'll go and bring her back. ”

"Thank you, sir, thank you!" The slime hunched over and knelt down like a shrimp to Zilharang.

"Don't spread the news of my coming, help me find all the people as soon as possible, and let's leave here together when the time comes."

"Yes, I know. I'll be sure to keep it a secret! ”

Zilharang nodded, as long as his family wanted to leave here, they had to cooperate with him. Perhaps, now only I can take them out of here.

Although there were many smokers, there was a large pool of skilled workers in Mumbai at that time. No matter how powerful the Ming people are, it is estimated that there will be fish that slip through the net.

The loss of himself is coming now, if in a few more years. The little money that Mumbai has accumulated in ten years will be demolished by the methods of the Ming people.

At that time, in addition to the Ming Dynasty, there were a few skilled workers in the United Kingdom in the world.

When he found the brothel that Slime was talking about, the fat old bustard immediately greeted him. A fat face trembled with a smile, and the thick bad breath forced Zilharang to wear a mask again.

"At first glance, you are a distinguished guest from the Wa Kingdom, and we are all girls of the same age here. Do you have an acquaintance, or I'll arrange one for you. ”

As soon as the old bustard greeted him, hundreds of little girls appeared upstairs and downstairs. It was really small, and it was absolutely clear from Zilharang's poisonous eyes that none of these girls were more than sixteen years old.

Impatient with the old bustard's ink, Zilharang sat down on the chair with a big sting. The old bustard waited carefully on the side.

As the loyal younger brother of the Ming Dynasty, the status of the Japanese and Koreans abroad was very high. Everywhere he went, he was a guest and became a superior person second only to the Ming people.

"I'm looking for Krim, the former machine tool factory, if you can bring her to me......!" Zilharang casually threw out a few Daming silver coins and threw them on the table.

"Klim......! Okay, okay, I'll bring it to you right away. When the old bustard saw the Daming silver coin, the fat on his face trembled again.

Sure enough, money can make ghosts grind, and the old bustard found Krim from hundreds of girls at once. A dozen Ming silver coins were thrown over, and the Krim soon belonged to Zilharang.

Now Zilharang doesn't care even if he dismantles her!

For Indians, slaves were on the same level as livestock. In rural areas, where the status of women is even lower, the status of female slaves is even less than that of cattle and horses at home.

Krim shrank in the corner of the hotel trembling and did not dare to look at Zilharang, and various versions of the legend of the Japanese people circulated in the brothel.

These people are the most terrible group of people in the brothel, and there are often reports that a little girl in a certain place has been abused to death by them.

Because they were Japanese people, and the people who died were prostitutes who were inferior to livestock. The government won't care, as long as you give a few money, the old bustard won't care.

"Don't be afraid, your dad asked me to take you out. I'll send you back in a moment! Looking at the quail-like Krim, Zilharang also felt helpless.

"No, please, don't send me back. I can serve you, my kung fu is very good, I can wait for you to be comfortable. To Zilharang's surprise, Kerim knelt at Zilharang's feet and kissed Zilharang's feet.

"Uh......!" Zilharang was startled, he didn't understand that Mao himself wanted to send him home, and she actually ...... Unwilling.

"When I get home, I will starve if I don't have anything to eat, and my father will sell me if he doesn't smoke. This brothel is still a place to receive nobles, and if I am sent to a place to receive Siamese and Cochin people, it will be better to live than to die.

Those people don't have money, and often a few or even a dozen people pool some money to find a girl to play with. Every morning, those low-class brothels would carry the dead out, and I didn't want to die. ”

Kerim fell to his knees, hugging Zilharang's thighs and sobbing.

Zilharang closed his eyes in pain, a few years ago it was a wealthy city of Mumbai, and it had only been three years since it had become like this.

Three years ago, Wu Sangui was even considering following the example of the Ming Dynasty to run a large-scale school.

But now ......!

Ay......! Once it falls to the bottom in the time of national disputes, it is really a mermaid's meat.

As the days go on like this, the Indian nation does not know how many years it will take to get back on its feet. Over the years, there will be how many Indian blood and tears have been imbued.

"Well, I'm not going to send you back. I'm going to take your family to a nice and nice place where you can eat and drink, and your father won't sell you because you don't have a cigarette.

You have milk to drink and meat to eat every day. Wear nice clothes and do whatever you want. ”

"My lord, are you talking about heaven? Oh, you must be talking about Da Ming. You're going to take me to Daming! His red and swollen eyes, which had been crying, lit up all of a sudden.

Being able to go to Daming is simply the dream of all Indians.

Those nobles who came from the Ming Dynasty said that the Ming Dynasty was like this.

Everybody has nice clothes to wear, no, a lot of beautiful clothes to wear. Everyone lives in a big house made of steel and concrete, and those who are well fed will not go hungry.

For Kerim, such a day is heaven.

Kerim's words darkened Zilharang's eyes, and once upon a time, the Eight Banners Iron Cavalry was rampant in Liaodong. The people of the Ming Dynasty can be like this little girl, prostrate at the feet of the Jurchens and beg.

Where to think, twenty years have passed. The Ming Dynasty is like the sun, and the whole world is looking at this ancient oriental country with reverence.

When the Ming people go to any country in the world, they will be courteous.

And the Jurchens, except for some who completely surrendered and survived in Lushun. The only people left were a few dozen clansmen brought out by their brothers. A hundred years later, perhaps the Jurchens will only have one name left.

Times have changed! More than 20 years ago, no one would have imagined that the weak Ming would have today.

"It's heaven, but it's not Ming." Stroking Krum's head, Zilharang looked out the floor-to-ceiling glass window at the ruined city of Mumbai.

The city is finished, there is no hope.

The next day, Zilharang took Krim to find the slime, and at the slime's house, he was waiting for him with a dozen people. When Krim saw the slime, his face suddenly became nervous. The little hand clutched Gilharang's clothes tightly, for fear that Gilharang would leave her here.

Zilharang didn't have time to pay attention to her, just touched her head and told her not to be nervous.

The slime looked at Krum's appearance and swallowed back as he tried to speak. For his daughter, he is really ashamed.

It can be seen that as the foreman at the beginning. In the eyes of these people, slimes are still very prestigious.

"My lord, none of these people have smoked. There are turners, riveters, welders, fitters, and blacksmiths.

They're all willing to go with you! The slimes greeted and everyone knelt down.

Not bad, at least a dozen people. However, compared to the number of people asked by Wu Sangui, it is still much worse.

Russia now needs at least three hundred skilled workers, and not a dozen now.

In order to pick up these people to Russia, Empress Catherine even sent a ship from St. Petersburg and sailed directly to Mumbai. Under the guise of trade, of course.

"Then you go and find someone, and each one of them comes. I'll give you a Ming silver coin, pay attention! I only need skilled workers, and I haven't smoked.

When I find it, I'll give you a sum of money to settle down in. In the future, follow me, and the annual salary is ten Ming silver coins. If you don't believe me, ask me what kind of person I am. ”

Zilharang knows Indians well, and if you find one, you can find a dozen. Find a dozen and you'll find more than three hundred!

As long as these people are dispersed, it is not difficult to find hundreds of skilled workers. After all, in the heyday of Mumbai, there were tens of thousands of skilled workers at work here.

There are ten Ming silver coins a year, which is quite a good salary in India. Everyone's eyes are going to light up, which is even better than in the era of Wu Sangui.

Someone immediately ran out excitedly, and introducing someone was equivalent to doing a month's work. It's hard to find such a good thing, and many of them have been hungry for a long time.

In today's Mumbai, a Ming silver coin can be enough for a family of three to live for two or three months.

"Hello! Come here, Daddy won't sell you again. Daddy, I'm sorry for you! Seeing that everyone had walked out, the slime beckoned to his little daughter.

The stubborn girl clung to Zilharang's clothes and refused to take a step closer to her father.
