Daming Town Haiwang

Chapter 1920, Changes in Black Soil Province

On the road from Mocheng to Kaffa Harbor, the northern port of the Black Sea, several carriages were walking leisurely. In one of the carriages, Peter Chen was looking out the window and lost in thought.

Since Black Earth Province was included in the territory of Ming Dynasty, Ming Dynasty began to migrate to Black Earth Province on a large scale. Now, in just a few years, more than 300 million immigrants from Ming Dynasty have settled in Black Earth Province.

The immigrant towns of the Ming people are very regularly distributed in relatively warm and fertile areas. The distance between each town is about the same, and cement roads are built between the towns to connect them, making travel very convenient.

In addition to a large number of immigrant towns, on the basis of the original cities in Heitu Province, the Ming people also carried out re-planning and construction, and carried out transformations according to the layout and style of the Daming people's cities.

For example, Mocheng, as the capital of the current Black Earth Province, is not only the place where the Ming garrison is stationed, but also the seat of the Chief Envoy of the Black Earth Province.

The people of Daming attached great importance to it, and carried out a re-planning and construction of Mocheng, tearing down the original city walls, widening the roads, paving cement roads, and laying natural water at the same time.

This series of constructions has brought huge changes to this land. The dirty and congested European cities gradually developed into clean, tidy and orderly Ming cities.

At the same time, during the entire construction process, a large number of jobs were also provided, attracting a large number of local Slavs to participate, becoming construction workers, having a good job, and the income can not only support the family, but also have a lot of surplus.

Those serfs in the past have turned themselves into masters now, and they most support the rule of the Ming people. During the Spring Festival last year, many nobles discussed rebelling against the Ming Dynasty together. As a result, they were not only severely suppressed by the Ming army, but also by the local Slavs. Attacks and rebellions by serfs.

Yes, those failed nobles used betrayal to describe these Slavic serfs, thinking that they were also Slavs, so they should know the actions of these nobles, and they should unite together to drive away the Ming people and establish their own country belonging to the Slavs.

But they didn't know at all that these serfs who had regained their freedom no longer wanted to be serfs, lose their land, lose their personal freedom, let alone live the hard life of the past.

How comfortable the life is now, they are upright citizens of the Ming Empire, no one can buy or sell them, they are free citizens, have their own property, their own house and land, their family and property are protected by the Ming Empire, their family There is still an inexhaustible amount of food in it, and those who have the opportunity to do things for the people of Daming have started to have savings at home, and they are planning to build a house as beautiful as the people of Daming in the future.

Who is willing to follow these nobles to overthrow their own happy life?

Go back to the previous life like livestock?

The turned serfs gained respect and protection, and obtained property and land. In places closer to the cities, the serfs can also do things for the Ming people, build roads, cities, etc., and find any job. Three or four taels of silver.

Although this salary is much lower than that of the Ming people, it is still extremely high for these local Slavs in the Black Earth Province.

The price of food is very low now, three or four taels of silver is enough to buy food for a family of several people for a year, and it is still the best white flour from the black soil province, instead of the unpalatable horse bread in the past.

A large number of vigorous infrastructure constructions have been carried out in the Black Earth Province.

The local Slavs have obtained a large number of employment opportunities, which has also caused a huge change in the transportation here in the Black Earth Province. The cement roads extending in all directions connect almost all the towns in the Black Earth Province.

This place itself belongs to the Great Plains, and it is relatively easier to build roads. In addition, the Ming Empire increased its investment in this area in order to strengthen its control over the Black Earth Province.

Now the trains are said to have gone to Ryazan. In the future, you can take the train directly to the capital of the Ming Dynasty, and you can also take the train to travel the vast land of the Ming Dynasty.

Looking at the spacious and flat concrete road, Peter Chen thought a lot, a lot.

He couldn't figure out why the same land would undergo such earth-shaking changes after it was in the hands of the people of Daming, but when it was in the hands of the Slavs, there was almost no change here.

It was like this a hundred years ago, and it will still be like this a hundred years later. The roads are extremely muddy, and the city is very dirty and chaotic. So in the past, nobles liked to live in castles outside their own cities.

Look at both sides of the road, a beautiful immigrant town stands on the ground, you can see that this immigrant town is neatly planned, all the houses are dotted, and the children in the town are playing in groups slapstick.

The appearance of the town is a vast field. It is already the season of spring plowing. I saw a large number of cultivators roaring in the fields. With the advancement of the cultivators, the black fertile soil was plowed out deeply. It is a bird that follows a large number of worms to eat.

The mechanized farming method was also invented by the Ming people.

Using machinery to cultivate is extremely efficient. One person can easily cultivate hundreds of acres or even thousands of acres of huge land, and the grain output is extremely high.

In autumn, the vast fields turned into a golden ocean, and with the harvesting of the harvesters, a large amount of grain filled the warehouses of the Ming people.

"Perhaps this is the root of the strength of the Daming people."

Chen Peter looked at the farming scenes on both sides of the road and came to such a conclusion.

His family used to have a lot of land and a large number of serfs.

When he was a child, he had seen these serfs farming, and there was no way to compare with these Ming people.

Look at the people of Ming Dynasty on the cultivator, they are plowing the land while singing songs, not to mention how nourishing their small life is.

"It may not be a bad thing to be ruled by the Ming people."

"The Ming people brought advanced civilization and advanced production methods to this land, bringing prosperity and a better life. Although it was a disaster for us nobles, it was actually not bad for the entire Slavs. a good thing."

Peter Chen thought carefully.

As a man of insight, he is always good at observing affairs and thinking deeply.

The changes in the Black Soil Province can be seen in the eyes. Although the land was fertile in the past, it didn't produce much food.

The backward serf system has seriously hindered the development here, coupled with the turmoil, it has never been able to develop peacefully, which has caused this land to lag behind the world for a long time.

So the Slavs became the target of the Tatars' plunder, the place where they plundered grass, and the source of slaves.

Looking at the present, this land is undergoing earth-shaking changes, with spacious roads extending in all directions, brand-new towns, and people who are gradually getting richer.

Chen Peter felt that for the people here, it seemed that being ruled was no longer an important matter.

This is especially true for those serfs.

Vehicles are slowly moving forward. The flat concrete road is very suitable for four-wheeled carriages. Of course, the best thing is the car. Look at the cars whizzing by on the road from time to time.

Chen Peter also showed envy in his eyes.

Although his family could afford a car, but the car was too expensive, and his father was reluctant to buy this car, it would be cheaper to make a horse-drawn carriage.

But for a young man like Chen Peter, he naturally hopes to own a car of his own and drive it on the road. The feeling must be very good.

Speaking of cars, Peter Chen quickly fell into thinking again.

I don't know how the Ming people made this kind of magical thing. Just relying on some water-like gasoline, it can run fast, faster than a horse, and this car seems to be still I don't know how tired I am, running for hours at a time without any units.

There is also that kind of big truck, the powerful carrying capacity is very terrifying, and it can transport a lot of things at one time. When he saw the car for the first time, Peter Chen was quite frightened and thought it was some kind of monster.

"Strong agriculture, strong industry, strong empire and civilization~"

"This time I finally have the opportunity to go to the capital of Daming to experience the prosperity and power of this huge empire!"

Peter Chen's eyes were full of anticipation.

He has heard many, many things about Daming, and read too many, too many in newspapers.

He must go to experience the legendary train and feel the taste of traveling thousands of miles in a day. There is also a legend that the capital of Daming has a population of tens of millions and is extremely prosperous and lively. He must go and see it when the time comes.

There is also the electric light that is often mentioned in the newspapers recently. I don’t know what it is. It is said that it can make the night as bright as the day.

The football, theatres, squares, zoos, etc. in the capital, these Peter Chen are all ready to take a good look and experience after arriving in the capital.
