Daming Town Haiwang

Chapter 2266, Europeans also worship foreigners

After Liu Jin wrote a reply to his son Liu Da, he also stood up and looked at the bustling Hong Kong outside the window.

This previously unknown place on the island of England, since it became a colony of the Ming Empire, it has been on a rocket and soared rapidly.

It has developed to the present, and it is already full of tall buildings, bustling and noisy, and extremely prosperous.

The Ming Empire can collect more than 5000 million taels of silver from Hong Kong every year. Just from here, it can be seen how prosperous the business here is.

The Hong Kong of later generations relies on the entire mainland, radiates the entire East Asia and Southeast Asia, and is the commercial and financial center of the entire huge region.

The Hong Kong in front of us is based on the entire Western European region, and is the commercial and financial center of the Western European region.

Commodities from the Ming Empire to Europe, especially those destined for Western Europe, almost all passed through Hong Kong for transit.

And most of the goods from Western European countries have to go through Hong Kong and then resold back to the Ming Empire or the vassal states, colonies, vassal states and other parts of the world.

In such a position, among other things, Hong Kong can become extremely prosperous just by developing transit trade.

There are not only large and small commercial firms from the Ming Empire, but also commercial firms and merchants from overseas colonies, vassal states, and Ming vassal states, as well as from all over the world.

It is not an exaggeration to describe this place as an inch of land and an inch of gold. The amount of commercial transactions involved in each commercial building may be very huge.

In addition to business is finance.

The finance here is very developed. Banks and money houses from all over the world have set up offices here. It is very convenient to borrow and save money here, and financing is very convenient.

At the same time, because of the turmoil in the European continent, a large number of European nobles were attracted to deposit their funds in banks in Hong Kong. I am afraid that outsiders cannot imagine the scale of this.

The war of the Spanish Empire to unify Europe is still going on, and the war with the Holy See and the Holy Roman Empire has been going on for many years, and the fighting between the two sides seems to be endless.

This directly led to the turmoil in the European continent, and also led to the emergence of a large number of warlords and military nobles on the European continent. These existences with military power seriously disturbed the noble order and noble spirit left before.

In addition, the Spanish Empire aggressively attacked the old nobles, which made the European nobles transfer their property to the safer Hong Kong, which greatly promoted the prosperity and development of Hong Kong's finance.

The huge wealth accumulated by European nobles for hundreds of years or even thousands of years is constantly flowing into Hong Kong, and such a huge wealth naturally drives the development here.

The most prominent point is that the housing prices in Hong Kong are extremely expensive, even surpassing the Beijing-Tianjin area of ​​Ming Dynasty.

The housing prices in the Beijing-Tianjin area of ​​the Ming Dynasty have risen relatively little over the years, maintaining at the level of 6000 taels a house, but here in Hong Kong, the price of a house has already risen to tens of thousands of taels.

Even at such an expensive price, it is still hard to find a house here, no matter how expensive the price is, people will buy it, because there are not only a large number of wealthy Ming people here, but also a large number of people who migrated and immigrated from the European continent European nobles.

Many nobles lost their territories, castles, land, etc. because of motivation, and they didn't want to continue to live in turmoil.

So it is also a home immigrant here, as long as you spend some money and have a deposit in the bank of Daming, you can obtain the citizenship of Hong Kong, a colony of the Ming Empire, and live a stable and prosperous life here in Hong Kong.

Hong Kong is not the European continent. It is very stable here. It is a colony of the Ming Empire. No one dares to provoke the Ming Empire.

Secondly, it is very prosperous and lively. When European cities are dark, Hong Kong is already brightly lit, with football fields, racetracks, theaters, brothels, movie theaters, etc. There are so many lively places for consumption.

You can have a place to spend day and night, as long as you have money, you are an uncle.

There are many things that money cannot buy in mainland Europe, such as electricity, movies, football matches, etc. These are unique to Hong Kong, and even the most advanced Spanish Empire in Europe is now rare.

In addition, Hong Kong can also receive advanced education from the East.

Here you can receive traditional private schools and academy education, you can also take the imperial examinations held by the Ming Empire, and you can also receive new-style education.

Compared with the education of those backward aristocrats on the European continent, the education system of the Ming people is more complete and more reasonable. Immigrants here are of great benefit to future generations.

Not only can you have the citizenship of Hong Kong, a colony of the Ming Empire, but you can also enjoy the convenient services here, as well as the advanced education and medical care here.

Medical treatment is also an important reason why many European nobles choose to immigrate to Hong Kong. The medical technology of the Ming people is developing very fast and is also very advanced. Many diseases that cannot be cured in Europe are minor problems here in Hong Kong.

As long as you have money, you can buy many medicines that cannot be bought in Europe here, and cure many diseases that cannot be cured at all.

These are the reasons that attract European aristocrats and wealthy people to immigrate to Hong Kong, and they are also the reasons why Hong Kong has rapidly prospered here.

Backed by the powerful Ming Empire, the most advanced civilization and technology, this is doomed to prosperity here.

Liu Jin took a car to the bustling commercial street here in Hong Kong. He saw that the entire bustling commercial street was very lively and crowded with people, and he could see a large number of nobles from Europe shopping leisurely.

They looked at everything here curiously, and looked at everything here carefully.

It can be clearly seen that these European nobles worship the East.

Because these aristocrats are all oriental in color, no matter the clothes and shoes they wear, their hairstyles, makeup, etc.

These European ladies wore skirts with strong oriental colors, and they could not see the skirts popular among nobles in Europe. The colors and patterns were also full of oriental flavors.

The clothes worn by the men are also the most popular styles and clothes in Ming Dynasty. The classical style clothes give people a strange feeling when they are worn by these Europeans.

Ming people like to shave their beards and cut their hair short, and so do these European nobles. For European nobles, beards are very important things, and they must not be cut off, and the same is true for their hair.

But now, after imitating the people of Ming Dynasty who cut their hair short and shaved their beards, they found that people's life is more convenient and comfortable, and everyone is willing to accept this. Slowly shaving their beards and growing short hair has also become a favorite of European nobles. trend.

In addition to these, Liu Jin is also an obvious discovery.

Here, there are many Ming men who often come shopping with a few concubines. These concubines are basically Europeans. If you don’t pay attention to each of them, you will think they are from Daming.

Because these people even dyed their hair black and straightened their own hair.

There is no way, the hair of the Orientals is black and straight, and the people of Ming Dynasty like straight black hair. As concubines, these people naturally want to match what they like, so they also dye their hair black, And straighten his hair.

In this way, you can have straight black hair that only oriental women can have, and have the beauty of oriental women, so that you can make your husband love you more.

Here in Hong Kong, the slave trade is very popular, and most of them are female slaves. The Ming people in Hong Kong will basically sell a few female slaves as concubines, servants, servants and so on.

The number of women in Hong Kong is several times that of men, and this is always the case in the past. Often, a Ming man will take a few concubines to go shopping and shopping, enjoying the feeling of hugging left and right.

"Haha, it seems that people all over the world are actually the same, there are people who worship foreigners everywhere!"

Seeing such a scene, Liu Jin also laughed.

There are many, many people in later generations who worship foreign countries and fawn on foreigners. Some people even say that they are unwilling to be human beings in China even if they go to Europe and the United States.

Now it's reversed. Here, there are also many, many people who admire foreigners, but their identities are reversed. It is these Europeans who worship Ming people and everything from the East.

Human nature is like this, worship the strong and despise the weak.

It is true human nature to fear the strong and bully the weak.

The Ming Empire was extremely powerful and advanced, with advanced technology, a prosperous economy, and a prosperous people. At this time, Europe was in turmoil, chaos and darkness.

The stark contrast between the two is vividly reflected here in Hong Kong, and it will naturally form the current phenomenon.

This made Liu Jin feel that all the slaves he traveled through were worthwhile.
