Daming Town Haiwang

Chapter 1848, Mountains of Gold and Mountains of Silver
Here in an empty plain on the outskirts of Cuzco, the capital of the Inca Empire, the annual atonement to the Sun God is coming soon, and the entire Inca Empire has begun to pay close attention to this matter.

On the roads connecting Cusco to the Inca Empire, four-wheeled carriages loaded with gold and silver bricks came towards the city of Cusco.

They must build the pyramids for sacrifice before the sacrifice date (the [-]th day of the Ming Dynasty), which is related to whether the Sun God will forgive their sins and make them become Ming people again, and become the sons of God .

For the people of the Inca Empire, nothing is more important than this. God has a supreme status in their hearts, and any disrespect to God will be severely punished by the people of the Inca Empire.

So the pyramids had to be built, once a year, and each time they had to be built as bigger, grander, more imposing, and taller as possible, so that they could show their piety.

The four-wheeled carriages transported gold or silver ore, and the four-wheeled carriages that weighed heavy gold and silver mines made teeth-like sounds.

Thanks to becoming a vassal state of the Ming Empire, the Inca Empire also enjoyed the convenience of many eras of development.

Not only did they use horse-drawn carriages, cattle and horses were promoted and used on a large scale in the Inca Empire, and even the people of the Inca Empire began to wear the same clothes as the Ming people.

Moreover, the wealthy and rulers of the Inca Empire are now beginning to live the same life as the Ming people, wearing silk, drinking tea, eating rice and noodles, and so on.

Some have even lived in reinforced concrete houses like the Ming people, with whitewashed walls, inlaid tiles, and carpets.

For the upper-class people of the Inca Empire, everything is in line with the Ming Empire.

Here, Roca, the high priest of the Inca Empire who was in charge of the construction of the pyramid, was drinking tea slowly while watching the construction of the pyramid.

This miraculous leaf from the Ming Empire is called the leaf of the sacred tree by the Inca Empire. Drinking more tea is good for your health. The people of the Ming Dynasty drink it almost every day, so the people of the Ming Dynasty are less sick and healthier.

As a result, tea spread among the Inca Empire, the Aztec Kingdom, and the entire Golden Island indigenous tribes, and became their favorite drink.

After you get used to drinking it, you can't do without tea, because drinking tea is really good for your body, and the taste of tea is really good.

"hurry up!"

"The notice must be speeded up. If the sacrifice is delayed, everyone will be punished."

After taking a sip of tea, Roca yelled at the busy crowd.

The gold bricks and silver bricks were transported by four-wheeled carriages, and a hill-like pyramid was being piled up continuously. The middle and lower floors were all silver bricks.

The smelted silver bricks shone with silver light under the sunlight, and they looked silvery.

The top part of the pyramid is built with gold bricks, and there is already a pile of gold bricks beside it. The gold bricks smelted with Ming technology are shining golden and exuding a charming light.

"A mountain of gold and silver!"

Looking at the scene in front of him, Liu Jin couldn't help sighing.

Emperor Hongzhi on the side also laughed. The Inca Empire and the Aztec Kingdom build pyramids every year for sacrifices. After the sacrifices, these gold and silver bricks will be transported away by the Tianjin Ocean Trading Company.

So far, the middle area of ​​the Golden Continent contains the most gold and silver, which belongs to the Tianjin Ocean Trading Company. The gold bricks and silver bricks used by these two empires to build the pyramids are worth [-] million taels of silver every year. The most important thing has always been income.

And there is still no need for any investment in pure income, just sit and collect wealth every year.

Under the huge influence of religion, the Aztec Kingdom and the Inca Empire have not had any dissatisfaction with this so far. For them, they knew that the Ming people were robbing them of their wealth.

But they are willing, and even enjoy it.

Because in their view, this is atonement to God. The more you contribute, the lighter your sins will be, and you can become real Ming people in the future. It is a good thing that the Ming people took their gold and silver, because the Ming people are The descendants of the Sun God, and they were exiled to the Golden Continent because they blasphemed the gods.

If you want to return to the embrace of God, you must redeem your sins. Contributing wealth to the people of Ming Dynasty is a way of atonement.

"It's really spectacular. I'm looking forward to the day when it's built."

"Silver pedestal, golden spire, such a huge scale, such a magnificent momentum, it's really amazing!"

Emperor Hongzhi followed suit and nodded.

This time, knowing that the annual sacrificial day was coming soon, Emperor Hongzhi ignored the opposition and came to Cuzco, the capital of the Inca Empire, with Liu Jin, planning to see the pyramid.

Looking at it this way, it really didn't make people hopeful.

The pyramid is really not small, just like a hill. Looking at the base in front of you, and then looking at the piles of gold and silver mines next to it, when such a huge wealth is directly in front of you, this feeling is quite impressive. shocking.

Although both Emperor Hongzhi and Liu Jin possessed far more wealth than these gold bricks and silver bricks, when seeing the hills piled up of gold and silver, the feeling and visual impact are still very shocking .

"The power of religion is truly terrifying!"

Liu Jin watched these pious descendants of Yin and Shang smelt the gold and silver that he had worked so hard to mine, and then transported them here, and built the pyramids piously, but in the end it was cheap Ming people.

But they are happy to do it, willingly, without complaint or regret, and even take all this for granted.

The reason for this is not because of the heroes of religion.

If it weren't for the set of religious theories and things that Du Mingen came up with when he conquered the Aztec Kingdom and the Inca Empire, it would be absolutely impossible for them to silently dedicate their wealth to the Ming people.

Even the rule of the Ming Empire in the Golden Continent will be under great threat.

Both the Aztec Kingdom and the Inca Empire are huge empires with vast territory and a large population. Although the equipment and technology are backward, the population is here. Once they are hostile to the Ming people, the Ming Empire wants to firmly rule the entire gold I am afraid that Zhou will have to have a good fight with them.

It is very likely that they will follow the old path of Europeans in history, start a long war, and finally destroy these aborigines through war, and achieve the purpose of ruling here.

The people of Ming Dynasty are different. We told them from the very beginning that we are one family, but you have blasphemed the gods, so you were exiled to this continent.

We Daming people are different, we do not blaspheme the gods, so we are favored by the gods and become powerful and rich.

If you want to return to the embrace of God like the people of Ming Dynasty and become the heirs of God, then you must redeem your sins so that you can become people of Ming Dynasty again.

The Ming Dynasty's ruling strategy and method on this continent, the flag that was raised from the beginning was the banner of a family.

There is no doubt that this banner is very useful.

Because the Ming people also regard them as their own clansmen, they are descendants of the Yin and Shang Dynasties, and they share a common ancestor with the Ming people. In addition, there is not much difference in appearance between them, which further proves this point. It is beneficial to Ming's rule on this continent.

All the local aborigines recognized the words of the Ming people, and they also felt that they were the same as the Ming people and had a common ancestor.

I also feel that I must have blasphemed the gods, otherwise, why are the people of Ming Dynasty so rich and powerful, but they are so barren and backward.

Therefore, one must atone for one's sins, and one can become a real Daming person after one's own sins are redeemed.

Ideological recognition, coupled with the strength and advancement of the Ming Empire, naturally made the rule of the Ming Dynasty extremely firm here, and the people of the Ming Dynasty were also flourishing in this ancient land.

"It's really scary!"

Emperor Hongzhi nodded solemnly when he heard Liu Jin's exclamation.

Look at the descendants of Yin and Shang in front of you, and think about the history of the West, the Middle East, and Tianzhu that you have seen. Under the notice of religion, people's thoughts have been greatly imprisoned, and they dare to endure oppression and exploitation. Pin your hopes on the so-called afterlife.

The most terrifying thing about this is Tianzhu. Under the combination of caste system and religious system, people of low caste even feel that the reason why they are low caste is that they have not suffered hardships and troubles in previous lives, made big mistakes, and blasphemed. Gods, that's why they were reborn into low-caste families.

Therefore, all these must endure hardships and hardships. Only after suffering the most and suffering the most can you be reborn into a high-caste family in your next life.

And people of high caste can be domineering and carefree, that's all they should be, because they are of high caste, they have suffered and suffered in the previous life, so they can enjoy in this life, and only then can they be reborn into high caste families.

Under the control of this caste system and religious system, the transfer of cruel exploitation and oppression contradictions has also made their rule extremely stable, and also allowed their descendants to enjoy all the benefits of high caste for generations. Everything, but people of low caste have been low caste for generations, and they are all high caste cattle and horses.

What a terrible thing this is. Thousands of years have passed like this from generation to generation. The Aryans, the invaders, ruled the vast Tianzhu continent in this way, and kept the local aborigines enslaved.

The same is true for the people of Ming Dynasty here, using religious methods to control their thoughts, and only the control of thoughts is the strongest control.
