Bury the Qing Dynasty

Chapter 143 I Have a Bold Idea

In Holbach's and Grand Master Diderot's mind, the Shandong Customs that we saw before, as the face of a country, should have all the good things piled up there, so even if it is more advanced than Europa, it should be a special case.

However, the closer to the direction of Jinan or the University of Erbahagen Diderot, the more shocked he was.

From Jiaozhou to Gaomi, and then from Gaomi to Weixian, Holbacher, Diderot and others finally had a general understanding of Daming.

There are several schools and a "big library" in any county town, which is rarely seen in France or in the whole of Europe.

Pierre said that the emperor of the Ming Dynasty has been working hard to promote education, so every county in the Ming Dynasty will have several social schools for the children of all Ming people to enter the school. If you count the one shared by several villages Sociology, then the number of sociology in the Ming Dynasty is definitely the largest in the world.

On top of sociology, there are county schools, and above county schools, there are prefectural schools, all the way to universities.

In the entire Ming Dynasty, there are currently two universities, namely Jinan University and Luoyang University. It is said that other areas under the rule of the Ming Dynasty are also constantly building new universities.

As I saw before, the so-called "large library" is just a small library in the county. library, any of which is comparable to the largest library in France.

In this regard, Pierre explained that the taxes collected by the emperor of the Ming Dynasty were not used for personal enjoyment, but have been committed to improving education and the lives of ordinary people. From this point of view, not only the king of France, but also the entire Europa Even the monarchs of the world should learn from the emperor of Ming Dynasty.

"You know, whether it's in France or the whole of Europe, it's not a very honorable thing to be a soldier, and those civilians are also afraid of the army."

"In the Ming Dynasty, being a soldier is an enviable thing. Their civilians always educate their children like this: If you encounter danger, go to a soldier in military uniform, or go to a police guard."

"Their civilians also have great trust in the government, which is rare to see in the whole of Europa and the previous Qing Dynasty."

"When we first came to the Ming Dynasty, the damn rose beef also showed that the faces and bodies of the common people in the Ming Dynasty could not see the beer bellies and red faces of those British farmers, but we all know that the faces of British farmers The reason why it is flushed is because of the sun's rays."

After thinking for a while, Pierre went on to say: "When the Tatars ruled, the civilians in this country had a very difficult life. The leftover meals we ate were good things for them, even us After drinking the remaining tea leaves, they will snatch them back and cook them." (Not fictional, from Macartney's diary)

"However, since the Ming emperor began to rule the country, these things have never been seen again."

"They have a complete system to ensure the lives of their civilians—as far as I know, any city or a few villages in the Ming Dynasty will have a warehouse full of grain. Food will be distributed to affected civilians."

"Including those civilians who enter the factory to work, they will also be protected. For example, the trade unions, such as the government, according to the different labor intensity of the factory, they strictly set the working hours every day. The factory owners will never dare to be like the French. Factory owners bully those workers just as wantonly."

"If civilians in the Ming Dynasty are dissatisfied with local officials or factory owners, they have many channels to complain, and then higher-level officials will happily stand up and uphold justice for them."

"And the officials in this country are also very interesting."

"Officials in this country pay attention to not being able to make decisions for the common people. They might as well go home and be a small vendor. In fact, many officials in the Ming Dynasty are left over from the previous Tatar rule, but they were in the Ming Dynasty. The behavior of being an official is completely different from the behavior of being an official under the rule of the Tartars."

"For example, Mr. Zeng, Mr. Zeng is a very knowledgeable person, but can you imagine that he used to be an official of the Tatars, but now he is the prime minister of the Ming Dynasty. Of course, he is full of goodwill to us France. Good thing."

Regarding Pierre's statement, Holbach and Grand Maester Diderot could not think of any refutation.

Grand Maester Didorot couldn't help but sighed, and said, "This country is undergoing a great renaissance."

Holbach shook his head: "Renaissance? From our point of view, this may be a great revival, but for these Ming people, it is probably just a matter of course."

"If you have read the contents recorded on the parchments in the French library, you should know how prosperous this country was in the past - the God's Whip that disrupted the whole of Europe was just a defeat of the ancestors of the Ming people. Their ancestors drove to Europa."

"This is the heritage of a country. Thousands of years of continuous civilization have given them a richer heritage and confidence than any other country in the world."

It’s just that compared to the extremely heavy moods of Holbach and Diderot, Pierre seemed very relaxed: "Ming is strong, which is not a bad thing for us France. After all, we are the Ming country. Allies of Europa."

"Moreover, two hundred foreign students from France will soon enter schools in the Ming Dynasty. As long as these young men study hard, France will eventually become stronger and stronger."

Holbach and Grand Maester Diderot couldn't help but nodded. After looking at each other, they secretly decided in their hearts that they must warn those young men who are selected as foreign students that if they can't study hard, they must use The cane beat them hard on the head.

After two days of driving with a heavy heart, Holbach, Diderot and others finally arrived at a large city. However, when the French nobles thought that they had come to the capital of the Ming Dynasty, Pierre was dejected. "Sorry, I miscalculated the time."

"If it was just me, then I have already arrived at the capital of the Ming Dynasty. However, there are too many of us, and the speed of our journey has been slowed down. Therefore, the city that appears in front of your eyes is not Ming Dynasty. the capital of the country."

A group of French nobles were very confused.

Even the city, which cannot be fully described by such admiring words as tall, mighty, strong, etc., is not the capital of the Ming Dynasty, but just an ordinary city.

"There are hundreds or even thousands of cities like this in the Ming Dynasty."

After being settled in the Yidu Posthouse, Pierre reminded these French nobles again: "Listen, gentlemen, you can now take your interpreter and go freely."

"However, please remember my advice to you - don't hug women from the Ming Dynasty casually, don't make a fuss about everything, it will make you look like country bumpkins, and you will lose us The face of France."

"Also, ladies and ladies, please restrain your enthusiasm and don't hug men from the Ming Kingdom casually. This is very rude in the Ming Kingdom."

A group of French nobles felt that Pierre must have done it on purpose, so as to show off his familiarity with the Ming Dynasty.

However, these French nobles envied Pierre's familiarity with the Ming Dynasty.

I really want to be like him...

It's just that compared to the gentlemen in France, those ladies and ladies are excited.

Learning the knowledge of the Ming Dynasty, studying the system of the Ming Dynasty, those are the affairs of men, and the only thing for women to do is to buy, buy, buy.

Silk, clothes, shoes, sachets, jewelry, porcelain...

God testifies, there is nothing that can make you happier than buying, buying, and buying. If there is, then you can buy, buy, and buy unscrupulously.

Like a dress made of silk, the price in Europa will be prohibitively high. Even these French nobles are reluctant to buy it, but when you come to the Ming Dynasty, the hometown of silk, you can buy it!Must buy hands!
In addition to shopping, you have to go shopping - what is the "King of China" ball created by Louis XIV?We can see what a real Chinese ball looks like!
Then, Pierre could only watch helplessly as a group of French ladies rushed out of the post office dragging a few interpreters.

Holbach and Grand Maester Diderot were not interested in shopping, shopping, shopping, and so on. After looking at each other, they looked at Pierre and asked, "Can we visit tomorrow?" Is it the library of the Chinese people?"

However, Pierre looked at Holbach and Grand Maester Diderot with the eyes of a fool: "Gentlemen, it is almost night now, and the libraries of Ming people will definitely be closed, but if you just If you want to read a book, then I can borrow two for you."

Grand Maester Holbach was taken aback, and asked, "Can you borrow books from Ming people?"

Pierre shrugged and said, "To be precise, you can too—there are some books and newspapers in the posthouse, which can be borrowed for free."

Holbach and Grand Bachelor Diderot were even more shocked.

How rich are Ming people?Can you borrow books even in the posthouse?
Can God testify that such a precious thing as books should not be stored in the library or stored in the bedroom?

……

Louja Antoinette (made up) is like her sister, very fond of balls, fashion, fun, disguise and feasting, gardening, and Louja Antoinette does not have a The husband of the king, but as the newly appointed Austrian Grand Duchess, Luha Antoinette is definitely a master of money.

How can we prove that Louja Antoinette is not short of money?

It's so simple, walking on the streets of Yidu, Luha Antoinette never cared about the price, and directly ordered the interpreter to buy for herself anything that caught her fancy.

Not only did she buy, buy, buy, but Luha Antoinette also ate and ate along the way.

Yidu peach?ate.

Yidu melon?ate.

Yidu hawthorn?ate.

Yidu persimmon?ate.

Anyway, no matter how you eat, you won't get fat.

The other French ladies are also similar to Luha Antoinette. After all, they are all nobles, and their husbands are also nobles. No one is short of money. In Europa, only nobles can marry nobles. Cinderella's father also has a title.

As a result, the big and small merchants in Yidu soon knew that there were a group of women from Europa who were not short of money.

It's just that after a frenzied shopping, shopping, and eating, Luha Antoinette suddenly felt a little dissatisfied, and a very bold idea popped up in her heart.

Then, Luha Antoinette hurried back to the post house and found Pierre: "Pierre, I have a very bold idea, I hope you can help me."
