Chapter 1949, Nanzhou City
Nanzhou City, the big island in East Africa, where the Governor's Mansion of the South African Colony is located.

The big island of East Africa, later known as Madagascar, was one of the poorest and most backward areas in the world in later generations. Originally, this island had extremely favorable natural conditions, but it could not develop at all.

However, now this big island in East Africa is thriving under the governance of the Ming people, becoming more and more prosperous and rich.

Nanzhou City is huge in scale, with a population of more than one million. The roads are neatly planned. There are many tall buildings and factories in the distance. The factory area in the distance is extremely busy, and the business of the large factories is extremely hot.

In the port area of ​​Nanzhou City, hundreds of ships, large and small, are moored here. Various flags are hung on the ships. They come from merchant houses of Ming Dynasty, various feudal states, and colonial ships, as well as ships from Persia and Egypt. , European Spanish, Portuguese ships, as well as ships from America.

Although the opening of the Egyptian Canal had a huge impact on South Africa, causing a large number of ships to no longer pass here, however, the South African colonies attracted more and more ships to arrive here for their development by virtue of their increasingly powerful agriculture and industry. Business contacts.

At this time, at a pier in the port, the Oyster slowly moored.

"Young master, I will send you here!"

The captain of the Oyster, Tao Xing, respectfully sent Liu Da off the ship. It took him almost three months to finally send Mr. Liu and his family to the South African colony safely, and he could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

"I will thank you on this journey!"

Liu Da also hastily expressed his thanks.

"It should be, it should be!"

Liu Da had just bid farewell to Tao Xing, and soon someone came over.

"My son, my son~"

When Zhao Xiaopang saw Liu Da and his party, he shouted excitedly.

Zhao Xiaopang is a servant of the Liu family, he is not very old, he is the same age as Liu Da, his father Zhao Erhu and Liu Jin have been playmates since childhood, and later Liu Jin rose up, Zhao Erhu has always been with Liu Jin, for Liu Jin Jin was the bodyguard and servant with him, and later Zhao Erhu's family also became the servants of the Liu family, all working for the Liu family.

Zhao Xiaopang's generation can be regarded as the second generation. They grew up with Liu Da and Liu Xin, and they even studied together.

Naturally, Zhao Xiaopang and his brothers are also working for the Liu family, and they are the closest among the many servants of the Liu family.

Situations like this are very common and common in Daming. Rich families also have requirements for their own servants and servants. Not just anyone will accept your current servants and servants. You must know the basics.

Many servants and servants of big families have been servants and servants of the master's family for generations.

The older generation serves the older generation, and when the older generation grows old, the younger generation serves the younger generation again. This is the case from generation to generation.

Many people may think that it is too miserable for generations to be given to the people of the present and serve as servants.

But in fact, this is a good job, because it is the time to serve the master's family, the master's family is trustworthy, not only has a good salary, but its income level is far higher than other people in the same period.

Moreover, they often dress decently and have a good place to live, so they don’t have to worry about food and housing. The key is that in many cases, the children of the servants who are not well educated can learn knowledge, read and write, or learn together with the children of the host’s family. Learn something.

Sometimes, if there are too many children in the family, you can still go to help in the property of the main family, and even the work of the children can be solved for you.

Because the Lord is trustworthy, he also needs some people to help him do things.

You must know that many times, this kind of thing is often done by the children of the main family's own family, and it is difficult for outsiders to do these things.

Being able to become a servant and servant of a big family is something that countless people dream of.

Especially in the past, I don’t know how many people wanted to sell themselves to rich families, just to have enough food to eat, to have a shelter from the wind and rain, and to do things honestly for the master’s family. The master will not treat you too badly.

Zhao Xiaopang's family was working for Liu Jin's family. The servants and servants, this time Liu Da came to South Africa, so Zhao Xiaopang was sent to South Africa in advance, and some things were arranged for Liu Da in advance.

"Fatty!"

Seeing Zhao Xiaopang, Liu Da immediately laughed happily.

"You're getting fat again."

"It seems that the food in South Africa is not bad."

"Hey, it's okay, it's okay~"

Zhao Xiaopang patted his head and said with a foolish smile.

Like his father Zhao Erhu, he was tall and burly, and his life changed drastically because the Zhao family followed Liu Jin.

Not only did they settle down in the capital and have their own house, but the standard of living was quite good, and all the children in the family grew tall, big, and strong.

As his name suggests, Zhao Xiaopang has been relatively strong and chubby since he was a child.

"My lord, I have already arranged everything."

Zhao Xiaopang also reported some things to Liu Da as he walked.

He came to South Africa ahead of schedule, so of course he didn't come here for vacation, but to do business for Liu Da.

For example, buying real estate in advance, inquiring about some things in South Africa, etc., there are many things to do, so that after Liu Da arrives here, he can be similar to returning home, and at the same time, he can quickly know some situations in the South African colony. .

Under the leadership of Zhao Xiaopang, Liu Da and his party came to the dock parking lot. Zhao Xiaopang had already purchased more than a dozen Mercedes-Benz cars, carriages, bicycles, motorcycles, etc. for Liu Da in advance. Everything related has been done in advance.

Soon, several Mercedes-Benz cars drove Liu Da and his party towards the rich people in Nanzhou City. The rich people's area in Nanzhou City is next to the South African Governor's Mansion.

Here is the mansion of Du Mingen, Marquis of Taiping, as well as the mansions of many powerful people in the South African colony. Every house here occupies a huge area and the price is extremely expensive, which is simply not affordable for ordinary people.

Sitting in the car, Liu Da also admired the scenery of Nanzhou City with great interest.

The roads in Nanzhou City are very well built. The roads are spacious and neatly planned. There are a lot of houses on both sides of the roads, especially on the port side. There are a lot of high-rise buildings. You can see the words on these high-rise buildings and know that these buildings are They belonged to powerful commercial firms or the offices of some colonies and vassal states stationed in the South African colonies, etc.

Looking at the roads again, there are quite a lot of cars, even comparable to those in the Beijing-Tianjin area of ​​the Ming Dynasty. Motorcycles and bicycles can be seen everywhere. Almost everyone travels by bicycle or motorcycle. It is enough to see that this South African colony is rich.

Of course, this is also because the South African colony itself has factories that manufacture bicycles, automobiles, and motorcycles, and there is no need to import them from Daming. In addition, the per capita income here is quite high, so these bicycles, motorcycles The penetration rate is very high.

“City construction is really good!”

Liu Da nodded while looking at it. This Nanzhou City is still very good, as can be seen from the port, roads, houses, vehicles and so on.

This is rarely seen in other colonies and vassal states.

Even in the most prosperous city of Ceylon, there are not many cars, bicycles, and motorcycles, and most of the time they rely on horse-drawn carriages.

"My lord, this Nanzhou city is similar to our capital city. It is very prosperous and lively. That is to say, this Nanzhou city is relatively hot, and it often rains, so it is relatively humid. It is not as cool as Daming capital."

"Now it is said that everyone is discussing whether to move to Liangyang City. The climate in Liangyang City is very cool and comfortable."

Zhao Xiaopang also started to talk to Liu Da about things about Nanzhou City and the South African colony.

"I know Two Oceans City, where the Atlantic Ocean and the Indian Ocean meet."

As soon as Liu Da heard it, he immediately said that before coming, Liu Da had a detailed understanding of some things in the South African colony.

The most important cities in the South African colony are Nanzhou City, Liangyang City, King Kong City and so on.

Nanzhou City is the seat of the South African Colonial Governor's Mansion, and it is also the place where it was first constructed and developed. Two Oceans City is located at the southernmost tip of the African continent, at the intersection of two oceans. Currently, it is mainly based on shipyards, steel factories and automobile manufacturing. host.

Diamond City is a city that gradually and rapidly developed due to the mining of diamonds, gold, and silver. It is located in the mainland, not near the sea,

Each city has a population of more than one million, a relatively large scale and a large population.

This is also a microcosm and characteristic of the South African colony. Almost all the population is concentrated in urban areas, which is highly concentrated and convenient for management and protection.

The same high concentration of population is also conducive to the development and production of industry and capitalization, and it is also an important reason why the South African colonial industry can develop rapidly.

At the same time, it is also extremely beneficial to the development of agriculture, because the relatively concentrated land can carry out large-scale mechanized agricultural development.

"Moving to Liangyang City is also a good choice, but I'm afraid it's not an easy task. Compared with the foundation of Nanzhou City, it is already very good."

Liu Da thought for a while and gave his own judgment.

"Yes, Lord Taiping Hou Duhou objected to relocating the Governor's Mansion to Liangyang City, saying that this big island in East Africa itself is very good. The climate here is humid and the scenery is beautiful. It is a very good place."

"But many people say that this big island in East Africa is not suitable for industrial development, so it would be better to move to the mainland."

Zhao Xiaopang also nodded and said.

The environment of the big island in East Africa is very good, and the scenery is extremely beautiful, but there is too much precipitation here, and it often rains.
