"If you go to Australia to divide your house and get a house for three years, how can you do such a good thing? Just dream about it."

Faced with this kind of doubt, the Australian snake head who came to pull people was not concerned: "Then you stay and eat the bark. Many people are willing to go there. If your distant nephew had asked me to call you, you would think I would come."

"I'll give this to that too, will the Australians go crazy?"

Australian Snake Head is now dressed in a new style, at least the hair is like the wild monk. Because there is less exercise on the boat, there are a few taels of meat on the face and body, and it is no longer the same as when it was left before. Now Snake Head appears to his former relatives and friends: "What's the matter? Zheng Zhilong immigrated to Dayuan Island in Fujian to open up the territory, and every three families also have a cow. Australia is farther away than Dayuan Island, and it only takes three years to divide the house and land. Australia is different from here. There are many people and few lands, and there are bumps and bumps and you can't wait to plant crops. There are large wastelands in Australia and no one grows them."

"Fourth brother, you are a little head on the Australian side now."

Australian Snake Head said: "I've only been there for how long, what little head is? It's just an employee of the Agricultural Association. I haven't divided the land yet. I help Australians open up the fields and have a few taels of silver to support my family a month."

"How many taels of silver can I get in a month for pioneering?"

"That's right, as long as you work, men, women, young and old, there are silver flowers. Australians say that this pioneering is the most tiring, so you can't treat it badly. Three meals a day are served with white rice, pickled radish, cabbage, and there are meat to eat in two days." The snake head looked around and said, "Actually these are nothing. The boat is called good food. Every meal of white rice, meat, vegetables, fish and shrimps are constantly coming. This time I come back to help Australians recruit people. There are fewer people here and there to eat for two more months."

"Fourth brother, your hair was not cut off by Australians for you."

"The weather in Australia is hot, and the water in the river and wells are not frozen in winter. Australians cut their hair short when they are afraid of heat, so we cut them along. Those who are willing to keep them don't care about them, but they just emphasize personal hygiene. I tell you, the big Australians are all made of steel, and they can take a bath every day with hot water."

"The fourth brother said nothing, the iron ship would not sink even if it was placed on the sea. At most, it would be ironed outside, and it would definitely have to be wood inside to float up."

The fourth brother pointed at this person and said, "I don't understand, don't understand. If you put an iron block into the water, it will definitely sink. But if you put an iron bucket into the water, he will float up. This is the principle of this big iron ship. We didn't understand it before. Later, when Australians put an iron bucket and bowl in the water, we understood it. The Australians said that this is the same as porcelain. If you put an adobe block into the water, it will sink in the water, but the porcelain bottle and bowl can float on the water."

Everyone sees that the fourth brother who has been to Australia for a few months is now fat and has a strong voice. He is the fourth brother who retreated three miles against the wind last year who may turn into a road at any time.

The temptation of white rice every day is still very tempting for farmers who can only use sweet potato seedlings and sweet potato porridge to satisfy their hunger. In the late Ming Dynasty, potatoes, sweet potatoes, corn and other crops were already planted, but it was probably because the seeds were not suitable for the land, and the yield was far less than that of later generations, and even less than that of the origin of America and Europe. The reason why everyone is willing to plant these crops is nothing more than that of the slopes and fields.

Zhili and Shandong are the hardest hit areas for immigration to Australia to the north. When a few people go back, they often leave all the tenants in the village. Not to mention those tenants, even self-cultivated farmers and some small landlords, they want to sell the land immediately and follow them to Australia. However, these proprietors, when they think of selling land and houses, they still resist the impulse when they think of selling land and houses, they still want to stay here. Although the seasons are not good every year, either drought or locust plague, they can't resist them.

The real losses were the big landlords. Many of these tenants who ran away still owe their own loans, and the tenants all ran away and who would plant the land next year. Although there is no shortage of refugees these days, they cannot resist these refugees who have just become tenants. They often parked nearby in the large Australian iron ships and then their whole family disappeared.

The land rent was extremely high in the late Ming Dynasty. Tenants often had to pay half of the harvest and bear the country's imperial grain tax. Once they were affected, they had to borrow usury to survive the disaster year. At least three cents of usury loans should not be expected to pay off the income from renting farmland. Often, after paying the rent of imperial grain tax and paying last year's debt, the whole family would have no food to eat before winter. After working hard for a year, they would have been cheaper for others. If they were affected for a year, they would be even better. I was afraid that the whole family would become slaves to the landlord's family - if the master refused to collect it, they would have to sell their children and daughters.

However, this trend is only a small-scale. Since the Ming Dynasty collected taxes based on the head, the population had never been cleared. In most places, after the peaceful and prosperous era of Hongwu, the number of official registered populations began to gradually decline, and the few that were missing were gone. However, this population could only be small but not large. If one more household in the official fish scale book, one more household would have to pay taxes. The yamen runners below knew the most.

It can only be estimated that the number on Lushan number was relatively conservative, and it was believed that there were at least 100 million people in the late Ming Dynasty, so it was not a psychological burden for every immigration of thousands of households - this number only reaches the base of 100 million.

The Ming government also gave time travelers a lot of education from all aspects. From the historical books, the late Ming Dynasty during the Chongzhen period should have been a decadent empire. Of course, this may be because of being deceived by the Qing Dynasty's literary inquisition. The Ming government now gives the Lushan Time Travelers the impression that although this empire has various diseases, the practice of learning new cultures and absorbing new knowledge is not left behind at all.

Since Hong Chengchou's new army victories, Guangdong has established a new army equipped with Australian firearms. When the Australians went north this time, the Ming government and other envoys in Tianjin have been waiting for a long time, just to buy new firearms from the Australians and build more new army.

Only then did everyone remember that although they were imperial dynasties, the Ming Dynasty was still a feudal society after all, and it was known as the budding capitalism in the late Ming Dynasty. The Qing Dynasty was a slave society. Yes, even if you entered the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty, it was also a slave to the masters. Thinking about a slave society with a population of over 100 million is really chilling. What's even more terrifying is that in order to strengthen the rule of the slave society, they forbidden new civilizations to impact the dynasty. In fact, this trick was correct for the ruling class. Later generations established new troops in imitating the Western era, and the first thing they did was to overthrow the Qing court.

It seems that the Qing court is not a fool, but no wonder Dai Zi was invented as a beaded musket and was exiled to the army. It was because the Qing Dynasty was riding and shooting to the world and wanted to ride and shoot to the world. If the technique of the beaded musket was invented early, I was afraid that the Qing Dynasty would have been overthrown long ago.

This time, the Australians simply reduced the price of the Type 1628 musket and sold it to the Ming government for 8,000 Australian fast guns at a cheaper price of 40 taels per bullet. This is also the result of the discussion after returning to Youth City. If the Ming Dynasty could hold on, the Australians would not intervene in the war on the mainland for the time being. Australian goods only need to maintain sufficient profits.

Now, no one knows what the Ming Dynasty will develop as a result, but at least Yuan Chonghuan's plan to forge an imperial edict to kill Mao Wenlong cannot succeed for the time being. This time, in addition to bringing thousands of tons of Vietnamese rice to Pi Island, the Australians also caught more than 2 million kilograms of fishing for Pi Island in the nearby waters.

It was not because the Ming Dynasty did not have fishing skills, but because the boat was broken and the fish was not tracked. It took one or two days to repair the fish nets for a day or two. This is how it was done when fishing for three days and drying the nets for two days.

"This is the reward for both of you, please collect it." Jin Sanduo reluctantly pushed past 4,000 taels of silver. This time he had a big business of 400,000 taels of silver with the Ming Dynasty. The sales commissions these two people naturally received were as much as 4,000 taels.

Everyone is still happy about the fact that the Ming Dynasty was able to introduce new weapons. However, the court, which spreads such unspoken rules, is afraid that it will eventually be dismantled from the inside by these worms. If this group of people continue to play like this, no one knows how long the court can last. But now no one wants to go ashore to help the Ming Dynasty. Sometimes it is much easier to build a new society than to transform an old society with deep problems. Otherwise, everyone would directly take 500 people to Beijing and directly replace the Ming Dynasty. It would be better, and even considering that they could not really carry out a thorough reform from top to bottom.

The Master Li took the silver and clasped his fists: "It's better for Mr. Jin. I'll set up a table here in Tianjin. Mr. Jin."

"It's not me that there are on our boat, but not on the shore. There are on the shore, and most of them have them. Now it's just thawed, and the vegetables in the fields haven't grown. Why don't I treat you two to a meal on the boat?"

After hearing Jin Sanduo's words, Li Lide, the head of the Ministry of War, and Eunuch Li, both said, "Okay, that's all, I'll disturb you."

"Let the kitchen prepare three meals A." Jin Sanduo naturally could not eat whatever he wanted as he was at home. After all, this is what he usually did on the boat. Meal A was the food that only the travelers on the Lushan Mountain could enjoy. Immigration and the iron artillery team working on the boat only had B meals, while immigrants were just C meals - without classes, there was no motivation to move forward. Everyone agreed that in the Central Army, which claimed to be equal to officers and soldiers, no day had ever been truly implemented for officers and soldiers. Unless in front of bullets, this lack of eyes would be really equal.

I sat down at the restaurant and put three fruit platters below. There are always fruits to eat all year round in the south, but in places like Beijing City, I just dream of wanting to eat fresh fruits in winter and spring. In addition to honey dips, there are only nuts such as walnuts, jujubes, peanuts, melon seeds and other nuts. As for the dishes, except for the stored cabbage, there are only various pickles and meat left. I can only eat this in winter, even the palace is no exception.

There are not fresh vegetables. There are also wealthy families in the north who use cellars to build some earthen greenhouses in winter, but the yield is very small and not enough for their own food. Besides, even if you can get the imperial kitchen, you dare not send it to the emperor. It is best for the emperor to eat cabbage in winter. Otherwise, if you get a small cucumber in winter, you will be happy to eat it and instruct the next meal to follow. The imperial kitchen can be hung up by others.

Large modern ships have their own plantations. The flowers and plants that girls planted in the past were naturally transplanted to Australia to decorate the back garden. Now they are planted with fruits and vegetables with short growth cycles. Automatic watering and automatic adjustment of temperature and light. The current function of this plantation is not found in the world.

Jin Sanduo explained: "This is an appetizer, grown on the boat."

Eunuch Li inserted a piece of tomato with a toothpick and said, "Can these fruits and vegetables be grown on the boat?"

"Since iron ships can float on the water and can walk without sails, what else is impossible."

Eunuch Li nodded: "That's right, it seems that the Australian skill is not just about making some quick guns and cannons."

After eating the fruit plate, the food was also served. There was not much meat, but the meat and vegetables were well matched. This was even more difficult to see for Beijing, where mutton was all day long in winter. Even in the winter, the restaurant was mainly meat and tofu.

After finishing the meal, Li Lide, the head of the Ministry of War, said with satisfaction in the tone of the angel of the country: "In my opinion, you Australians are floating around on the sea all day long, so it is better to learn from the Zheng family to join the court. The imperial court rewards one and half of the position and you can't enjoy it all."

"Tsk." Jin Sanduo thought to himself: It's not that we are interested in our ships and technology. If you want to poach, someone must kowtow to the emperor of the feudal court. Nine out of ten modern people can't stand this kind of thing. Of course, if you have a natural slave, you can't guarantee it.

Jin Sanduo said: "I have said a long time ago that we don't kneel down in Australia. You see, we don't usually go ashore, we just don't bother to encounter such a mess. If you really kill a few officials and those with titles, I'm afraid that both sides will not look good."

The head of the Ministry of War was obviously prepared and said, "This is not a matter. The court can award you a great title. At that time, I'm afraid others will kneel down to you."

"Forget it, we are not dead. Besides, even if we don't kneel when we see an official, then we can't kneel when we see the emperor?" Jin Sanduo said in a straightforward way to cut off the evil thoughts here.

Li Lide, the head of the Ministry of War, said: "See the Emperor, this..."

Eunuch Li answered for him: "Of course I have to kneel down. All the kings under the world are the kings, and all the kings are the kings in the shores of the earth."

Jin Sanduo said: "We Australians believe that this world is not a single family. What is important is that an emperor takes turns to come to my house next year. Don't look at me as the head of Australia today, I may not resign next year."

Li Lide, the head of the Ministry of War, said in surprise: "How can this be done?"

"What's wrong with this?" Jin Sanduo said: "What does the saying in the Three Kingdoms describe a dragon? A dragon can be big or small, and can rise or hide. If it is big, it will be prosperous and fog. If it is small, it will be hidden. If it is rising, it will fly into the universe. If it is hidden, it will be lurking in the waves. The emperor is the real dragon emperor. If it cannot do this, it is still considered a dragon."

This is true, but these two people dare not take the lead. If they say something wrong, they are afraid that their future and even their lives will be lost. This dragon emperor can say nonsense. Of course, the Australians are not under the jurisdiction of the Ming Dynasty, and they can say whatever they want, but these two people themselves have the nature of mutual supervision. Although everyone knows the unified knowledge of the money, no one can trust the informant.

Li Lide, the head of the Ministry of War, thought that it would be a big trouble to recruit these Australians. The chore given by the above is really not done by humans. Go back and ask if the Australians can be attached to the emperor for life, which will avoid kneeling down to worship the emperor. Having said that, the big bosses above are always like Australians, and they are just possessed, and they can really hand over the gun-making and cannon-making technology, the big iron ship and the mirror-making craftsman. It was a bit clear to the person in front of him that he should be able to make cannons and mirrors in Australia. Just like the officials in the Ming Dynasty who could not make irons, the people on the ship would not be able to hand over the gun-making and cannon-making craftsman.

As long as it is good for the country, the Ming Dynasty did not refuse foreigners to be officials in the Ming Dynasty. Just look at Matteo Ricci, you will know that although the old missionaries always wanted to baptize the emperor and ministers into the lambs of the Lord, the court could not pass the level of worship of ancestors every year - Christianity opposed ancestor worship.

However, this did not prevent a group of scholars and officials from talking about astronomy, geography, mathematics, geometry, and geometric calendars all day long. In terms of casting red cannons, many people liked to talk about it before the Australian red cannons appeared. Of course, most of them were very arrogant and had never seen the actual situation and dared to talk big. The atmosphere in the late Ming Dynasty was like this.

Although Matteo Ricci had an indissoluble bond with the Ming Dynasty, the Western scenery of the Ming Dynasty has now changed from the deceased Matteo Ricci to Johnson Thomson Thom - the same missionary and the same knowledgeable Johnson Thom replaced Matteo Ricci's position.

But this person is not so easy to do. Over the years, generations of Jesuit priests have not achieved much success in promoting the faith of Jesus, but it has been quite effective in promoting the optical astronomy, calendar, geography and other aspects of the Ming Dynasty. The technology of gunpowder and artillery has also been passed down from here to the Ming Dynasty, especially the granular gunpowder technology, which has benefited a lot from the Ming Dynasty.

But as a missionary, although there are several churches built, there are really not many believers, but people often come in to burn incense and worship Buddha. After seeing the temple, they will eventually worship. The Chinese believe that God is like Buddhas from all walks of life and people, and they pay attention to a ritual and many people do not blame them.

Of course, this behavior made the missionaries irritate themselves. The Christian doctrine is that except for the family of Jehovah, Jesus and Mary, the rest of the denominations are all cults, other gods are evil gods, and the believers of other gods have all entered the evil path. If the laws of the Ming Dynasty were not subject to the law, these missionaries would have burned them with stolen for their ancestors and other Buddhist Taoist or Islamic believers - in Europe and for many years.

But now Johnson Chan can't help but fall into the problem of missionary difficulties of his predecessors, and even the status of the imperial court has been much lower. Recently, the authentic and fake firearm experts in Beijing have begun to study Australian fast guns and steel cannons, which are advanced technologies that even Europe does not have.
