Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Regarding this issue, Li Min and Wang An discussed this issue for several days, and finally decided to define Americans as "different races of the same clan."  The idea of ??being from the same clan but from different races was actually not invented by Li Min and others, but was first proposed by the Sanhan people.  This group of Sanhan people is also a foreign race in Daqi, but many of them believe that the ancestors of their Sanhan people were Jizi who left China during the Yin and Shang Dynasties, and then established Jizi Korea on the Sanhan Peninsula.  The ancestors of the Korean people, so in a sense, the Sanhan people are also Han people.

    Not only ordinary Han people do not recognize this statement of the Three Han people, but even some scholars directly deny this statement.  It's just that in order to improve their status among the foreign races in Daqi, the Sanhan people usually like to use it to fool other foreign races, and define themselves as 'same clan aliens', which means that they and the Han people have the same ancestor.  To express the difference between oneself and other alien races.

    Li Min, who came from later generations, naturally knew the urinary nature of those Sanhan people. As long as it was beneficial to them, they would dare to pull anything on his head, so he didn't care about those people of the same clan and alien race. But this time in the Americas  On the issue of the same clan, this foreigner helped them a lot.

    First, the government came forward and admitted that the three Han people were of the same clan as the Han people, but their status was still that of a foreign race.  With the precedent of the three Han people, it is natural to classify the Americans as different races. Moreover, they are all survivors of the Yin Shang Dynasty. They can be regarded as relatives and should be in the same status.

    Regarding the return of the Americans, the Three Koreans really took advantage of it. Officials finally recognized that they are the same ancestors of the Han people. This will be an epoch-making event for them, and it will also greatly improve their  The position of the three Han people in Daqi.  I believe that among all the alien races, there is no one more noble than them.

    After confirming the status of the Americans in Daqi, the American officials immediately organized those tribes who claimed to be descendants of the Yin and Shang Dynasties, and transferred some of them from them to return to Daqi and become the real people of Daqi. After all, Daqi is now  The degree of development of America is still very low. Except for a few limited strongholds and ports, other places do not belong to Daqi.

    After such a long period of contact, Americans are full of yearning for the Han lifestyle.  In particular, they knew that the Han people never had to worry about starvation, wore gorgeous silks, lived in safe cities, and did not have to worry about wild beasts breaking into their homes and eating them.  So knowing that you can live this life too.  Those tribes that were the first to admit that they were descendants of the Yin and Shang Dynasties all became excited and rushed to sign up one by one.

    However, if you want to immigrate to Daqi, you need to at least be able to speak Chinese. Even if you are not very proficient, daily communication is still needed, and the first batch of immigrants should not be too many.  Therefore, the officials stationed in the Americas immediately organized the Americans to learn Chinese and finally conducted examinations and selections.  Only those who pass the exam are eligible to immigrate to Daqi. For example, Li Yong's Thea, whose parents passed the Chinese exam.  Even the little girl could communicate in Chinese, so she was allowed to immigrate.

    "Uncle Li Yong, when do you think Xiong and Dashi can move from America to Daqi?" While Li Yong was thinking about some messy things about America, Little Thea next to him asked again.  The big eyes are full of longing.

    "This depends on your friends. They want to immigrate. They must learn Chinese well. At least like you, Thea, you can talk freely with your uncle. So after you arrive in Daqi, you can write to them to encourage them.  If they study Chinese well, they will be able to immigrate to Daqi and play with Thea!" Li Yong said with a smile, touching Thea's little head.

    The skin color of Americans is darker than that of Han people, but their facial features are very similar. For example, the little girl Thea. When Li Yong saw each other for the first time on the ship, he discovered that Thea was very similar to his beloved eldest daughter, so  When Li Yong met Thea, he often gave Thea some gifts, such as some small candies, chocolates, etc. As a result, he immediately gained Thea's favor, and he became familiar with Thea after going back and forth. What secrets did Thea usually have?  They all also like to talk to Li Yong.

    Hearing that Li Yong asked her to write a letter, Thea's little face wrinkled, and she said with some embarrassment: "But Thea can only speak but not write. Even her father and mother can't write."

    Among the Americans, except for the Mayans who created a kind of hieroglyphics, other Americans do not have their own characters.

    Li Yong smiled and said: "It's simple. You can make more Han friends and ask them to help you write. In addition, you have to study hard and try to learn to write as soon as possible. After all, you want to  Life is better in Daqi, even if you can¡¯t write!¡±

    "Well, Thea knows!" Thea nodded heavily. Although the little girl who grew up in this tribe is already twelve years old, she usually comes into contact withThere are not many people, and the people in the tribe are relatively simple, so compared with ordinary Han children, they appear to be much simpler. In addition, she is also very convinced of Li Yong, so she has secretly made up her mind.  You must study hard, maybe you can see this Uncle Li Yong again in the future.

    "Okay, it's time to have lunch soon, let's go to the restaurant together!" At this time, Li Yong looked up at the sky, stood up, and pulled Thea up at the same time.

    "Uncle Li Yong, what's for lunch today? Is it still the canned beef we had yesterday?" Thea's eyes lit up when she heard that she was about to eat, and she asked impatiently.

    Thea's original tribe lived by hunting. It was a very happy thing to have a full meal, and there were no requirements for the type of food.  But since boarding the ship, although the food on the ship is very ordinary, sometimes canned and dry food, for Thea and others, the food on the ship is not only extremely delicious, but also can be eaten freely, so every day  Thea looked very excited every time she ate.

    Seeing Thea's drooling little greedy look, Li Yong smiled and patted her little head and said: "I won't eat canned food today. Our fleet will arrive at its destination soon. There are still some things on board."  There was some fuel left, so the kitchen steamed rice and fried a few vegetables at noon today, but unfortunately most of them were meat dishes, and the only vegetarian dishes were bean sprouts!"

    "It's great to have rice to eat. Thea likes to eat rice the most!" When she heard that rice was to be eaten at noon today, Thea immediately jumped up happily, pulling Li Yong and ran to the restaurant on the ship.

    Although the American route has become increasingly mature, and there are several ports for ships to berth along the way, due to the long distance, the fuel carried on the ship is still not enough, so the ship rarely fires once. Thea has been on the ship for such a long time.  That is to say, I only ate rice a few times when I first left America and when I stopped at some ports on the way.

    There were more than 5,000 Americans migrating this time, and hundreds of ships were used. Among them were not only passenger ships specially used for traveling, but also naval warships driven by Li Yong and other navies. In order to transport as many people as possible,  People, even Li Yong and their warships carry many passengers, and Thea's family is one of them.

    Comparatively speaking, warships are much larger than ordinary passenger ships, but warships need to maintain corresponding combat effectiveness, so they carry much fewer passengers than passenger ships. In addition, the specifications of warship restaurants are also higher, so  Americans like Thea and others who ride on warships usually lead a much better life than the passenger ships they support.

    When Li Yong and Thea arrived at the restaurant, they found that most of the Americans on the ship had already gathered here. Like Thea, these people were very active in eating.  Among them, Thea's parents also saw Li Yong and their daughter, but they had long known that the officer was very kind to their daughter, so they just said hello from a distance, and then continued to exclude receiving food.

    A warship is actually a small military camp, with a strict military hierarchy everywhere. This can even be seen from the dining room. For example, the dining window is separate from officers and ordinary soldiers. There is a window.  It is a special window for officers. It is still a little early, so there is no one in front of the officers' window.

    Li Yong took Thea to the officer's window, and then they each received a lunch.  Lai Xia is not an officer on the warship and cannot receive meals at this window. However, as the captain, Li Yong has the right to bring other people to receive meals. If it were another officer, then Thea would have to queue up next to it.  .

    Although it was an officer¡¯s window, Li Yong¡¯s lunch was actually the same as that at an ordinary window. However, as an officer, he had one more bottle of canned fruit than others today, but Thea did not.  Today's staple food is rice, and there are also two meat dishes: twice-cooked pork, mutton and potatoes, and a plate of fried bean sprouts that makes Li Yong want to vomit at the first sight.

    Although the current sailing conditions are much better and you can bring a lot of canned food on board, fresh vegetables still cannot be stored for a long time, so the most commonly eaten dish on board is bean sprouts, but whether it is soybean sprouts or mung bean sprouts, long  No one can stand the time to eat this food.

    Li Yong opened the canned fruit and gave more than half of it to Thea, and then gave some of the rice to Thea. Although Thea was young, she was still growing and had a larger appetite than an adult.

    After lunch, because he was about to arrive at his destination, Coconut City on Java Island, Li Yong was the captain, so he had a lot of things to do. Thea was also very sensible and went to find some people on the ship.  Went to play with the new kid I met.  When the sun was about to go down, the fleet finally slowly approached the port of Yecheng. On the pier of the port, Xu Jingzong and the officials of Yecheng were preparing to welcome this special group of immigrants.
