Daming Town Haiwang

Chapter 1793, the younger generation of Ming Dynasty

After leaving the Mercedes-Benz bicycle factory, Liu Yuan wandered around the capital casually.

Thinking about it, it seems that it has been a long time since I walked around the streets and alleys of the capital so leisurely.

The capital is more prosperous than before. This weekend, the streets and alleys are full of people, especially the commercial pedestrian street in the new town of the South District, which is specially used for shopping. During this weekend, people There are so many, it is almost a sea of ​​people, and the entire pedestrian street is crowded.

The business of large and small shops is also very hot, selling clothes, jewelry, food, supplies, gold, silver and jewelry, etc. There are many kinds of shops, and the products are also dazzling.

There are a large number of factories, schools, and commercial firms in the New City of the South District, which also makes the consumption power of the New City in the South District second only to that of Zhuque Street in the capital.

Because the Suzaku Street is close to the center of the capital for the rich and powerful, the goods sold in the shops there must be high-grade, and the prices are also very high.

The new town in the South District is more close to the people, and it is more down-to-earth. It is a place where ordinary people spend their money, and naturally it has the most people.

On weekends, everyone can rest, go out to play, and go out to spend. The Chinese New Year is coming soon, everyone’s pockets are bulging, and consumption power is also rising sharply. Various New Year’s goods can also be purchased in advance.

Liu Jin watched with interest, with a smile on his face.

Look at the current Daming people, everyone has no worries about food and clothing, this person looks much better if he is well fed and warmly dressed, and there are quite a lot of beautiful girls.

Unlike in the past, when the food was not full and the clothing was not warm, the color on the faces of the common people was obvious, and people did not look so good-looking. Girls from wealthy families seldom show their faces in public, and they want to see some beauties are difficult.

Looking at the present, looking at the past casually, you can always see many beautiful girls, and there are also many mixed-race children. A large number of female slaves were trafficked to Daming, and they also gave birth to many mixed-race offspring.

Everyone's clothes are also quite good, good-looking and decent, and it is rare to see people wearing patched clothes. There is no doubt that this is because the production of cloth in Daming is very high now, and the price is already very cheap , all kinds of clothes and so on, the price is also very cheap, so you don't need to be as frugal as before.

This is especially true for these young people, who grew up in the new era of Ming Dynasty and had no worries about food and clothing since childhood, so they don't know the truth of thrift.

As for the boys on the street, all of them are tall and strong.

Compared with before, the height and weight of Daming people have increased significantly now.

The new school has daily physical examinations. The growth of the new generation of Ming Dynasty is very obvious. There is more food to eat, and meat is getting cheaper and cheaper.

Daming has several large meat warehouses in the Northern Province, Western Regions Province, Hezhong Province, and Central Asia Province. Coupled with the convenience of railway transportation, cattle and sheep are constantly being transported here.

At the same time, the marine fishing industry is becoming more and more developed, and more and more fish are caught in the ocean, and the price is cheap. There are also dried meat from Australia, dried fish from Gold Island, etc.

Vegetable greenhouse technology has also been promoted in the north, and Ryukyu, Qiongzhou, and Nanyang can produce enough vegetables and fruits.

These have greatly enriched the dining table of the Daming people, and the result is that the height and weight of the Daming people are constantly increasing, and the little girls and boys are all more beautiful, handsome, and handsome.

To judge whether a country is strong, rich or not, we only need to see whether the people in this country can eat well, dress well, and whether the people look rosy and shiny.

This reminded Liu Jin of the late Qing Dynasty. Even in a place like the capital, the common people were still sallow, thin, and bony. If they were disgraced and dirty, they could know that the Qing Dynasty was not far from its end.

And those foreigners in the same period were tall and strong, so that everyone always thought that we were inferior to them in race.

In fact, they eat more meat than us, and they are full, so they are strong. Later, as our living standards continue to improve, our height and the like continue to increase.

Looking at the current Ming Dynasty and Europe, the people of Ming Dynasty are no less tall than the Europeans, and even the younger generation are taller and stronger than the Europeans.

When Zhu Houzhao led an army of [-] to sweep across Eastern Europe, Ming soldiers had a strong physical advantage when fighting the Tatars of the Crimean Khanate, the Slavs of the Principality of Moscow, and the Principality of Ryazan.

The soldiers of the Ming Dynasty were tall, strong, and well-trained. Even the horses they rode were taller and stronger, which left a deep impression on the Europeans.

These are enough to show that tallness has a lot to do with diet structure. Where people eat more meat, people will be taller and stronger.

In addition, a balanced diet is also very important, which is related to physical fitness.

Of course, the most intuitive thing is whether it looks good or not.

If people can’t eat enough to eat, they will be yellow and thin, and look ugly. If malnutrition and imbalance are added, all kinds of strange diseases will appear, and the appearance will be even worse. Ugly.

If you can eat well, eat well, and have balanced nutrition, you will look much better. Men are handsome and women are beautiful.

Liu Jin can know that Daming is very prosperous today just from the people he sees on the pedestrian street. The common people are not only full, but also well-fed, paying attention to balanced nutrition.

There are a lot of vegetables and meat, and the little girls raised here are all juicy and the boys are full of vigor.

"Not bad."

Liu Jin nodded while watching.

You can also see spirituality in everyone's eyes, instead of being sluggish and lacklustre after being forced by life and impoverished.

The new generation of Daming people not only eat well and dress warmly, but also because they have received new education and read books since they were young, they know more and understand more, which gives people a different feeling.

Think about when I just crossed over, even on the streets of the capital, most of the ordinary people were still short in stature, in tattered clothes, with colorful faces, and dull and dull eyes.

It is not the most recorded Hongzhi ZTE or Hongzhi prosperity in the history books at all. The Hongzhi Dynasty is actually far from the prosperity that those civil officials boasted.

On the contrary, the Hongzhi Dynasty was actually the beginning of the decline of the Ming Empire. Many problems and disadvantages continued to be highlighted, which would gradually exhaust the vitality of the entire Ming Empire and eventually lead to its demise.

It is also because of his own time travel that the energy of the Great Ming has changed, and this is how everything is now.

Look at the boys and girls on this street. It seems that apart from being more attractive, they seem to be more daring with each other. There are even young couples holding hands in public. You Lennon me Lennon.

This was almost impossible before.

You must know that Daming has always been strict in etiquette. Even young couples must keep a distance when they are outside. They cannot walk next to each other. The man should walk in front and the woman should follow behind.

As for holding hands or something, people will scold you to death, say you are shameless, and say that you have broken the social atmosphere and so on.

But now, there are quite a few young couples holding hands, regardless of other things, and everyone seems to be more accepting of this, and will not look at them with strange eyes.

This shows that everyone has seen this kind of thing more often, is used to it, and has become more liberated in their minds, and no longer thinks there is any problem with it.

Husbands and wives, young couples go shopping together, just holding hands.

"Times and ideas change very quickly!"

Liu Jin couldn't help laughing.

Sure enough, all development has a historical inevitability. With the development of industry and cities, ideas and concepts will naturally change.

Although it is still relatively conservative now, this is also a beginning, and it is estimated that it will become more and more open in the future.

It's just that I don't know whether it's good or bad. Thinking about the future generations, Liu Jin feels that being more conservative may not be all bad things. The messy things in the future generations are really attitudes. The divorce rate is scary and terrifying.

Excessive pursuit of freedom and liberation, and pursuit of enjoyment have also brought many, many problems to the society, lack of sense of responsibility, fear of hardship and burden, and even unwilling to have children. What hope is there for such a nation?
So sometimes it is good to be conservative. Many Western ideas and concepts of later generations are actually dross. The good things have not been learned, but the bad things are all Westerners who have learned more than Westerners.

Liu Jin is full of thoughts. Walking on this street, he thinks a lot while looking at it. Combining and comparing many things in later generations, in fact, the current Daming is the best.

PS: Do you think it makes sense?
