Chapter 2501: No Slavery in the World
At this time, I feel that all the contacts in the world are with goodwill.
Madagascar used to be aboriginal, but later people from other places came over, and everyone still got along well with each other.
Until the French, who advertised the romantic land, came over and the war began.
There is no such thing as gentlemen and romance. People in these places are now fighting against each other.
So the decline of a civilization is sometimes very simple. It disappears in a few decades, just because of invasion.
"Li Lang, look at them. Once our people get here, according to your method, it will be easy to turn the entire island into the Tang Dynasty."
Princess Yongmu observed the situation of others and found a problem...
The people here are so poor that they don't need to be oppressed. As long as you give them benefits, they will be willing to hang out with you.
The biggest pursuit of local people is to live a better life. It doesn't matter who rules.
You said that the place belongs to the Tang Dynasty. If you let me become a Tang Dynasty person, I can have enough to eat, no problem!
The leader of the tribe only wants to lead the tribe to survive. He will be happy when there are new children and sad when there are dead people.
The leader's own pursuit is not the desire to dominate, they are the smartest ones selected by the tribe.
Unlike the Tang Dynasty, the officials of the Tang Dynasty were too smart, fought against each other, benefited for themselves, embezzled and accepted bribes.
The leader of every tribe on the island would not have such thoughts, just like a father with many children at home.
The father's words are most effective. He arranges for his children to work, we store food together, we look for water sources, and when we die, we find a good person to take over.
At this time in history, the people on the island were focused on survival and had no idea of nation-building or their own political goals.
If others want to come, just come! If you have a boat, follow along and learn how to build a boat and fish...
“The Tang Dynasty strictly prohibited the slave trade, and people were not allowed to plunder people and use them as slaves.
All slaves existing in every household in the Tang Dynasty had their registration changed, and the government paid for their redemption.
Only in this way can we occupy more territory in the world.
Others can go to Datang by boat to work or live. In the future, people in Datang who want to make money will be allowed to come out. "
Li Yi made corrections based on historical development. If the slave trade was not good, just pay to hire them.
The sun has set if colonial methods are not learned, and their methods caused the subsequent separation of colonies.
It would be better to directly turn other places into the territory of the Tang Dynasty and send officials to manage them in rotation.
The premise is that there are enough steam engines and ships to shorten navigation time and send troops to attack anyone who disobeys.
At the same time, like the French colonial period on this island, no industrial base was developed.
If you want something to be shipped from the Tang Dynasty and made by yourself, you will definitely not be given any technology.
Strengthen Datang cultural education and let others recognize that Datang civilization belongs to their own civilization.
Li Yi told Li Longji and the others about his general future plans. He is now very powerful.
When he first came to the Tang Dynasty, even if he had a hundred courages, he would not dare to abolish slavery.
Even if he said it, Li Longji would not agree. Are you kidding me? Want others to rebel?
Anyone who dares to object now will be punished immediately.
"If the arrangement continues, local officials will go to the home of the slave buyer to redeem the slave at the purchase price recorded on the deed, and the children born to the slave will also be redeemed."
Li Longji ordered that the Tang Dynasty began to amend the laws and no longer allowed the sale of slaves.
Those who had slaves were sold to the court. After the court paid the money, the slaves were freed. If they could not find a job, the court was responsible for training and arrangements.
The young slaves go to school, not in the local area, but in a different place to avoid being crowded out by the children in the school.
The ministers accepted the order. They did not pay attention to the slave matter. It did not matter if there was one less trade. The Tang Dynasty was expanding its territory.
In the future, history books will record how much the territory of the Tang Dynasty increased when I was there.
"Start with Li Jia Zhuangzi?" Bi Gou arrived at leisure and had nothing to do.
Lijiazhuangzi had slaves and bought many of them.
The little robot next to him told Li Yi directly. After hearing this, Li Yi said: "What Bi Zaifu said is absolutely true. The imperial court gave Zhuangzi money, and Zhuangzi's slaves changed their citizenship and became free."
"Bah! What a beautiful idea." Bi Goucai didn't want to do it. After changing his status, the slave would not be able to leave.
Even if they are not afraid of leaking their skills, what kind of work do slaves do? If you dare to arrange a job for a slave, the slave will fight you.
Turning his head, Bi Gou said to the little robot beside him: "Traitor, I won't let you go."
"You talk like I'm yours. I belong to my boss. If I don't tell you, I'd be a traitor." The little robot despised it.
…
The islanders were frantically cutting down trees and branches, dragging them into the sea and smashing piles.
The craftsmen broke the wooden planks, laid them on the piles, and fixed them to provide a mooring point for the large ships that would come later.
According to the current progress, as long as we work for another day tomorrow, a proposed pier will be built.
Ships from the Tang Dynasty arrived at Socotra Island. Ten ships replenished fresh water and sailed north. They were responsible for going to South Africa and Liberia.
Liberia's golden river, they are responsible for finding gold and building houses to live in.
At that time, they will return to Datang and come back next time to sum up their experience and see what survival and life skills they still need to learn.
The most important thing is to learn several languages. I'm afraid I won't be able to learn just one, so everyone learns them separately.
"I'm selling newspapers. Important news. From now on, the Tang Dynasty has revised its laws. UU Reading www.uukanshu.net prohibits the sale of slaves in the entire Tang Dynasty..."
In the morning of the Tang Dynasty, the newspaper boy first took the bus to the newspaper distribution place to pick up the newspaper, and then took the bus to each distribution location and shouted all the way to the school.
When the school starts, it is time for morning reading and newspapers are sold.
They will save their child labor wages and hand in the remaining money when they pick up newspapers tomorrow morning.
The children who deliver newspapers will have a newspaper left at the end, which they will show to the teachers and classmates in the school.
As long as the children can read, they will start to learn the content of the newspaper. If they don’t know, they will look at the pinyin and ask other people or doctors.
“Well, prepare, turn out the indentures of the four slaves in the family, and ask them if they are willing to continue to stay and work? Pay them.”
The ‘head’ of a large family in Chang’an Fang, Chang’an, read the newspaper, sighed helplessly, and ordered his family.
His family has a small workshop, textile, hired three people, there are five people in the family, and bought four slaves.
It costs money to buy slaves, and it is obviously more cost-effective to hire people according to piecework.
The workshop needs to provide a lunch. If they don’t rush to work at night, they have to light the lights to rush to work. How can they light an open fire in the textile workshop?
At lunch, the three hired workers and their own family members have meat in their dishes, but the slaves don’t.
Fortunately, the slaves were fed and could eat as much as they wanted.
At night, when the workers got off work, they went home, and the slaves continued to work, cutting grass for the cows and cleaning the cowshed.
In the morning, before dawn, they carried lanterns to pick vegetables from the vegetable fields outside the city, sold some to the West Market and bought meat, and ate some for their own family.
Seeing that they were about to be gone, it was fortunate that they did not lose money when they sold them at the same price.
"Dad, let's wait and see! We only have four slaves, and some families have dozens or even hundreds."
The eldest son of the head of the family was reluctant to let them go, hoping that someone would object.
"Wait? Wait for the government officials to come?" The head of the family shook his head.
