Liu Liang, a former dressing slave from Shengjing Prefecture (now called Shenyang) outside the Guanhai Pass, walked off the Henan ship in tears.

Because he knew that this was the last time in his life that he would set foot on the land of Shenzhou!

He was captured by the Ming army in the Battle of Deshengdian. He first worked as a coolie in Tianjin and on the Weihe River, building cities and drawing fibers. Although his life was very hard, he still had the hope of returning home! Return Home in Shenyang, Northeast China, go back to farm, live a good life with my parents and brothers, and marry another wife if I have the chance

In his opinion, he can go home, because he is not a serious Qing army, he is just a Baoyi slave, and he is not an old Baoyi, but a Han farmer who left the customs to make a living after Duduo ruled the customs. With the title of Baoyi, he actually just farmed the land to pay for food, and he never thought about serving as a soldier for Duduo. It was only because his family owed money to a banner man for marrying his brother, that he had to If you join the army, you won't be fighting, but you will be serving your master.

But I didn't expect that in the end, the master ran away (followed Nikan) and left him on the battlefield as a prisoner.

However, the officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty who were guarding him were quite reasonable. Apart from asking them to work without being paid and being beaten if they didn't work hard, they didn't mistreat them very much. They were still given food and a way to live. So he was full of expectations. A day of release!

But the development of things was far beyond his expectation!

Release is impossible! How can it be released? There are so many coolies to work for, how can it be possible to release these prisoners who want no money?

To be released is also to be exiled!

In the end, the superiors saw that he worked very hard, so they gave him some preferential treatment, and he could choose one of three exiles.

These three places of exile are: the Western Regions, which is later known as Xinjiang; the Ca'ou Army, which is the area around Ho Chi Minh City in Vietnam; and the American Mansion and Peanutton, which is the area around Seattle, Washington State, the United States. The quality of the city is obvious at a glance. Although the Western Region is bitterly cold and Ca Mau has many epidemics, it is still better than Seattle!

After going to the Western Regions and Jinou, there may be a chance to return to the Central Plains in this life. According to the explanation of the Ming military officer who sold them the exile, Jinou and the Western Regions are still on the Shenzhou Continent (Asia was given the name Shenzhou Continent by Emperor Zhu), while America The mansion belongs to the American continent. It sounds like it is not a good place. Moreover, if you go there, you will not be allowed to come back. They will have to be Americans for generations to come!

So Liu Liang wanted to go to the Western Regions at the beginning. He had heard about that place. Monk Tang had gone there when he was taking the Western Scriptures. Except for the monsters, it was pretty good in other aspects because now he had matchlocks and flintlock guns, so he didn't Worried about monsters.

But when going to the Western Regions, you have to give priority to the "family package", and you have to have a wife to accompany you, so that you can stay rooted and dedicated for generations, but Liu Liang is alone and can't go!

Then he wanted to go to Ca Mau, which sounded quite prosperous. But he was told that to go to Ca Mau, you had to know how to grow rice, but he couldn't! So he couldn't go to Ca Mau, leaving only America House.

But he was still unwilling, so he continued to be "Liu Bailao" and worked hard for Emperor Zhu until not long ago, when the superiors gave him thirty "preferential quotas" to go to "America" ​​and give him a Japanese wife!

This discount is huge and there are only thirty of them!

Liu Liang thought about how miserable his life was. He was not only poor, but also a prisoner. He was also very young, already in his twenties. Who knows when will this coolie end? If he doesn't let go after three to five years.

, maybe I will be a bachelor for the rest of my life!

It’s not bad to have a wife now, even if she looks a little uglier, even if she’s a little older, she still recognizes her!

So he gritted his teeth and chose the discounted package to send a Japanese lady to the United States.

Only when I boarded the Henan number did I realize I had been deceived!

The American Mansion does not exist at all. There are places, but without this Mansion, that place is now a barbaric land with nothing!

In order to open up new territories for science and technology, the imperial court sent a company of fusiliers across the ocean to occupy a point there. However, this company of soldiers had to return home after completing their mission and could not stay for a long time. Therefore, the superiors were captured again.

Thirty strong men were selected from the Qing army to go to the United States to farm the land. Someone had to farm the land! Otherwise, how could we open up a colony there and operate it for a long time?

And farming in places where the climate and soil conditions are unfamiliar is a gradual process. It is impossible to spend thousands or tens of thousands at the beginning, otherwise a large number of people will starve to death if the harvest fails.

Therefore, the first group of thirty farmers plans to cultivate 1,500 acres of land to grow wheat. If they can harvest two to three thousand kilo of wheat, it means that the land in the United States can still grow food.

In order to allow these thirty farmers to give birth to small farmers in Seattle, Wei Zaod, who was solely responsible for the colonization of the Americas, also proposed that the Navy Department, which was responsible for transporting and mobilizing immigrants, find wives for these thirty farmers!

This is really hard for the navy! How can the navy have such resources?

Later, Zheng Jiangong remembered that his uncle Zheng Hongkui was "pimping" in Japan, so he posed the problem to Zheng Hongkui.

Only then came the promotion of sending Japanese wives to the United States. Liu Liang and twenty-nine other good men were attracted by the "Japanese wife" and boarded the Henan cruise to the United States.

"Don't be in a daze, get to work quickly!"

A naval officer's shout rang in Liu Liang's ears. Liu Liang wiped his tears and walked forward. When he reached the mountain of supplies, two fusilier soldiers who got off the ship pressed down a sack of wheat.

on his shoulder, and then asked: "Can I have another pack?"

"Okay!" Liu Liang had plenty of strength, otherwise he wouldn't have been "deceived" to become one of the first pioneer farmers in America!

Thirty strong pioneer farmers, plus more than a hundred equally strong fusiliers, and some sailors, all worked together to move the supplies piled on the dock one by one onto the Henan

…

By the time the supplies were transported, it was already early the next morning and the sky was beginning to lighten up.

At this moment, about thirty short Japanese wearing bamboo hats and loose kimonos, escorted by a dozen warriors dressed as ronin, suddenly entered the pier of Uraga Port and headed towards the Henan.

Liu Liang had already finished carrying the big bag at this time and was panting on the deck. A Ming naval officer who usually guarded the immigrants suddenly shouted: "All Americans are getting off the ship, there is still a batch of goods to be carried!"

Liu Liang and others ignored the order and hurriedly disembarked along the gangplank. When they arrived at the dock, they found no cargo. They only saw thirty "Japanese children" wearing bamboo hats and standing in a row.

Where is the thing? Why don't you see it?

Just when they were wondering, someone shouted something in Japanese, and all the "Japanese children" took off their hats. Then with the dim light on the pier, Liu Liang discovered that they were all girls. They looked very small, about sixteen years old.

Are you old?

At this time, someone shouted again: "One for each person, one for each person, no grabbing, whatever one is given will be the one."

Liu Liang and the others were stunned. What was going on? What were they saying?

Seeing that everyone was still motionless, the officer became a little impatient and said loudly: "What are you waiting for? It's already agreed in the contract that you've got a wife. You've all signed it. Now don't blame her for being small. Who the hell dares not to do it?"

, they all have to be engaged in military law!”

Being engaged in military law means to be shot. You can either take the wife you received from above onto the ship and go to the United States to have a baby, or you can be shot!

This sounds ridiculous, but it is absolutely necessary, because this is colonialism!

Colonization and colonization, the people who are bred are colonizers!

When they heard that they wanted to engage in military law, no one dared to think that these Japanese wives were too small. They all lined up and went forward to get married one by one. This was considered a family!
Chapter completed!
