Chapter 60: The Sweet Potato That Gave Dayan His Life

The black-robed foreigner had a cold face and was not happy, while the man standing behind him had a smiling face. From Jiang Ling's point of view, it can be seen that he touched it with his elbow, as if he accidentally touched it to shake hands, and from the distance, it was mostly deliberate.

"Hello, are you here to see a doctor or are you a little confused? Oh, sorry, I forgot. He wanted to withdraw his outstretched hand.

Jiang Ling held it directly and shook it twice: "Hello, my father was a navigator, when he was young, he traveled around the world, was baptized by the Lord, and converted to the Lord. ”

Jiang Ling said very slowly, the black-robed foreigner understood, his face softened, and his gentle gaze fell on Jiang Ling, he changed his position and squeezed the other person opposite Zhou Zhou.

"Thank you for your praise and may God bless you. You can call me Hewitt, the one who preaches the gospel for the Lord. Hewitt didn't speak as fluently as the other.

Jiang Ling was very uncomfortable to hear, she wanted to communicate with him in a foreign language, he didn't have to rack his brains to squeeze out one word after another, and her ears didn't have to be tortured anymore. It's quite possible that she only speaks the language of Britain, and this is not yet the time for the language to take root globally.

Zhou Zhou felt that Hewitt didn't like him, but he didn't care about it, and chatted happily with Lance. That's right, Zhou Zhou had already exchanged names with another man.

Hewitt and Lance led the two into the church. From the conversation, the two learned that Hewitt and Lance were both French, Jiang Ling was secretly glad in his heart, fortunately he didn't blurt out Britannica, you must know that there was a hundred years of war between Britain and France. Wouldn't her strategy be over before it even began?

Jiang Ling looked around and could see three or five poor people wearing brown shorts with many patches on their bodies sitting on red lacquered chairs, bowing their heads and praying.

It's really scary.

However, Jiang Ling was not surprised, according to Zhou Zhou's description and the news she heard from Hewitt, most of the people who came to the church were people who were forced by life to be desperate.

When people are about to starve to death, die of illness, and can't afford to live, a steamed bun and a bowl of medicine, you can believe whoever you believe.

Alive, yes.

Sayest, "Are not the hearts of the people afraid?" With yellow hair, blue eyes, and a different face, how can ordinary people who have never seen foreigners be afraid. It is the desire to live that drives them to come to their homes for help.

With the help of the missionaries, who can blame them for the gratitude and the faith of choice that naturally springs up in their hearts?

In the land of Dayan, according to the statistics of the system, there are 40,000 people, and the barren cultivated land area and the concentration of land have long been unable to support so many people, and this land should have been reshuffled a long time ago. It's just that Dayan was lucky enough to find the sweet potato that Da Zhou couldn't ask for. The huge production of sweet potatoes saved the lives of 40,000 people, and also hung Dayan's breath.

Jiang Ling said that the reshuffle of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom came too late, but it was mixed with religion and would definitely lead to defeat. Throughout history, there have been gangs that have used religion to deceive a group of simple people for their own use, and none of them can last long.

"Mr. Hewitt, I heard that your country is under the control of a mob?" Jiang Ling asked very carefully, she had even thought of an excuse, sorry Mr. Hewitt, you know that the east is too far, and my news is too backward.

"Yes, the mob that forsaken the Lord will be punished by the Lord......" Hewitt can be said to be full of resentment when it comes to the mob, the mob who claimed to be reforming the church and adapting to France under the new government, but in fact they wanted to split the church, and they even had to take back the last bit of the church's right to collect taxes.

In addition to bringing the gospel of the Lord to the East, Hewitt is still far away, but he really can't get along in his own country, so he might as well go to the East to fight. The golden country described in "Stories from the East" is truly fascinating.

But working with that vampire-like merchant of Lance was uncomfortable. If not......

Jiang Ling listened to Hewitt for a long time and didn't figure out what the situation in France was now. But she knew that the Bourbon dynasty had fallen, and that the bourgeoisie was spiraling upwards and on the road to state power.

Bloodshed, revolution. The bourgeois revolution.

What about Dayan's path? Dayan couldn't even suppress the riots of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. The two choices in this land are nothing but a reincarnation. Two rookies pecked each other, no matter who wins and who loses, how can they take on the future of the nation and the country?

Jiang Ling began to think that the current situation is still good, but the backward system will inevitably make the country farther and farther away from other countries and fall to the third world, then the country's wealth will attract ill-intentioned eyes.

The "Oriental Observations" describing the Orient has become the driving force for navigators to travel far away, so what kind of inspiration will Western books have in the East?

In Yinxian County, Jiang Ling did not see Western books, nor did he study Western scholars. As for Pingbo Mansion, she went for too short a time to be unclear. I only know that she has voted for a newspaper, and the form of fables has made the progressive-oriented newspaper intimidated.

Jiang Ling unconsciously began to coil the pearl bracelet on his left wrist, the country is still asleep, I am afraid that it will go the same way again, only blood can awaken the arrogant and lazy lion.

"Ginger, ginger, are you listening?" Hewitt amplified his voice slightly.

"I'm sorry, but I listened too much." Jiang Ling apologized for calling it a quick one.

Hewitt's slight dissatisfaction was also soothed by Jiang Ling's sincere attitude.

"Jiang, you are really different, you are the first Yan country person to listen to me say so much. And I can feel that you genuinely respect us. Hewitt said something similar to Robert.

In this era, the indifference and distrust of Chinese people towards foreigners, contempt and contempt are engraved into the bones, so Jiang Ling, who respects everyone, is particularly valuable.

On the other side, Zhou Zhou's occupational disease was criminal, and he was telling Lance about Jiang Ling's novel, which was the one on Qingyun Road.

Lance listened very carefully, although he couldn't understand some of Yan Guo's unique rankings, but this kind of upgrade was something he could feel. He thought it was an interesting novel. It's a bit like The Count's Revenge.

"I'm just giving you a rough idea, if you can read it yourself, you can better feel the charm of it."

"I think this is a novel that no one can refuse, but unfortunately I can only listen to you." Lance expressed regret.
