Daming Town Haiwang

Chapter 1599, Simon's worries
On the four-wheeled carriage, Simon was still deeply shocked by the scene he saw at the factory.

The densely packed machines, the fast-rotating shuttle, the extremely fast weaving speed, and the assembly line-like production method are like seeing a heavenly book, seeing a production method that has never been seen before.

Such a production method and the terrifying speed of wealth creation far exceeded Simon's imagination.

He, a Jew from Europe, can be considered a well-informed person.

Traditional wealth creation requires a relatively long process, often in units of years. Even if you are in business, selling goods from one place to another, the speed of wealth creation is far slower than the factory you see in front of you.

The cloth that is produced like flowing water is not cloth, but white silver.

This factory is not a factory, but a gold mine, which is continuously producing wealth.

Of course, this is not just as simple as wealth, it also means a huge supply of materials.

In terms of cloth, the previous weaving efficiency was too low.

One person can weave 2 bolts of cloth in one month, so even if people want to buy extra clothes, it is unrealistic, because the total cloth supply in society is only so much.

But after using the machine, it is completely different. The efficiency of weaving is extremely amazing, and the supply of materials is extremely abundant. People can start to pursue better, more beautiful, and more clothes.

The same is true for other industries and fields.

In terms of food production, the people of Daming have vast land, which is one reason, but the real reason is that Daming has advanced mechanized farming technology.

A large number of machines are used to cultivate the fields, which greatly improves the farming efficiency of the Ming people. They can cultivate more fields and produce more food with a smaller population.

This also allowed Daming to feed more people and live a more affluent life at the same time. The food was sufficient, and it could also be used for farming, enriching people's dining tables, allowing Daming people to eat better and have a stronger body.

"Is it a great feeling?"

Brown also felt a lot, looked at Simon and asked.

"Yeah, I feel a lot~"

"It's no wonder you said that Da Ming has already taken the lead in the world, and it's no wonder that Da Ming can sweep all directions and coerce all the heroes."

Simon sighed and nodded solemnly.

"Then where do you think we Jews should immigrate to?"

Brown nodded slightly. Only when you come to Daming can you truly feel the power of Daming, and the strength of the people of Daming is reflected in all aspects.

It not only refers to the invincible military power of the Ming people, but also the powerful and efficient political system of the Ming people. The people of the Ming Dynasty can occupy such a vast land and manage it in an orderly manner. This system is very effective.

If it is placed on the European side, if the country is a little bigger, it will naturally split into many small countries. There were times in European history when it was unified, but it eventually split again.

As for nomadic tribes, the former Mongol Empire is the best example.

In the end, the powerful Mongolian Empire could not escape the old way of nomadic tribes. The families were separated, and then the families were separated. Conquering each other and consuming each other, they are no longer as powerful as the Mongol Empire era.

Even though there are powerful grassland tribes rising up later, they still follow the old path of the grassland people. They have never been able to come up with a system that is truly effective and sustainable for a long time, and their control over the vast land is still very weak.

But the Ming Dynasty is different. Although its territory is huge, the central government of the Ming Dynasty has a very strong control over various places.

Even on the Golden Continent and Australia, according to the existing system, it is still difficult for the feudal officials in these places to become bigger. They have to be transferred after a few years, the military and the government are separated, and there are regular reporting systems, assessment systems, etc.

It is definitely not easy to split.

What's more, the culture of the Ming people has always had the thoughts and concepts of great unity in it. The writing and culture of the Ming Dynasty have always kept the Ming people united.

Even though these overseas vassal states and colonies are actually like independent kingdoms now, they are still established with reference to the system of the Ming Empire.

The Ming people in these places always insist that they are Ming people. The vassal states and colonies established now are not to split the Ming Empire, but to encourage the Ming people to go to sea and seize more living space.

A strong military is only superficial, and a strong centralization is the reason why this huge empire can always be maintained. Of course, the Ming culture's inclusiveness and tolerance are the important reasons for the internal unity and harmony of the Ming Empire.

Since ancient times, many powerful empires have been destroyed by internal conflicts, especially internal conflicts between various tribes.

The people of Daming are clearly aware of this.

The Ming Dynasty ruled a vast territory, and there were countless tribes living there, and there were all kinds of tribes.

It is not an easy task to maintain the rule of the empire and let the various tribes live in harmony.

What's more important is to make these tribes always have centripetal force, which is the most rare thing.

But the people of Daming have grown bigger.

Daming people solve this problem in many ways.

In terms of military affairs, the original military power of each tribe was wiped out, and the military power of each tribe was completely resolved. At the same time, the nobles and leaders of each tribe were moved to the capital to live in the capital and enjoy the blessings in the Beijing-Tianjin area. Why do you want to be independent.

Long-term separation from their own tribes will also cause them to lose the foundation of rebellion, the dragons will have no leader, and the tribesmen in these places will not be able to gather together to make trouble.

Economically, the Ming Empire has vigorously promoted the economic development of the minority tribes. Relying on the strong economy of the Ming Empire, it has driven the development of these minority tribes and enabled them to live a better life than before. To rebel and make trouble.

At the same time, various tribes were incorporated into the huge economic system of the Ming Empire. Once they were separated from this system, it would be difficult for them to persist.

More importantly, in terms of culture, the Ming Empire has always understood one thing, that is, cultural identity is the basis for long-term unity.

When the empire was strong and weak, it was impossible for the Ming Empire to remain strong forever. The moon was cloudy and sunny, and an empire also had times of prosperity, strength, and decline.

The key to keeping these minority tribes in line with the Ming people is cultural identity.

Therefore, vigorously promote Han culture, and introduced many political policies to encourage minority tribes to learn Han culture, change Han surnames, and intermarry with Ming people.

At the same time, we will promote outstanding talents from the minority tribes, let them become officials, and then dispatch officials to govern various places, rule the country by law, emphasize the legal system, and treat everyone equally.

After this series of combined punches, in the vast territory of the Ming Empire, countless tribes are obedient to the Ming Dynasty and have a strong centripetal force.

Even many tribes are proud of being subjects of the Son of Heaven.

Like the Caucasians and Georgians on this side of Nanyun Province before.

Their tragic history is a history of being invaded and bullied by strong tribes from all directions. In history, they are synonymous with slaves and the grassland of nomadic tribes.

Because of being bullied, they enjoyed the dignity and protection that citizens of a powerful empire deserved after being incorporated into the Ming Empire.

Their loyalty to the Ming Empire is beyond doubt.

The Ming Empire's promotion of Han culture here in Nanyun Province was very smooth. In a very short period of time, there were people here who shined in the imperial examinations.

In the past, the various tribes had different languages, characters, and customs, so conflicts were inevitable, but now, with the Ming Empire's vigorous promotion of Han culture and the policy of Mingization.

The language, writing and customs between each other are all the same, and it is more convenient to communicate, and the contacts are closer, the conflicts are naturally less, the integration between the tribes is more intimate, and they will naturally be closely united. , forming this huge empire.

"We Jews should emigrate to the Ming Empire!"

"In such a strong and inclusive nation, we Jews can live like never before."

"It's just that, in such a powerful imperial system, can we Jews still insist that we are Jews?"

"I'm worried that in another hundred years, the Jews who migrated to Daming may no longer be Jews, but become Daming people!"

Simon closed his eyes, and after personally inspecting the Daming people, he had to admit how powerful the Ming people are, and also admitted that the Jews can indeed live well here.

But he was also full of worries. What he worried about was that they might no longer be Jewish. The culture of the Ming people was so powerful that it could melt all other cultures.
