Wild North America 1846

As the core part of the population policy, the unique Eastern marriage system of the Tang Kingdom was the greatest guarantee for high population growth and was also extremely attractive to naturalized white people.

It is true that the concubine system is unfriendly and unequal to women.

But this is a common situation in today's European and American society. Women have no right to vote, no right to inheritance, no right to employment, no right to education. They have never been taken seriously and are only regarded as vassals of the family and property of the husband. How can there be any equality?

Word?

Even though Richard was a king, he could not challenge the entire social tradition on his own. If he wanted to realize the rise of the Chinese nation in North America, he had to make choices in order to win the support and followers of more people.

In March, spring blossoms and everything revives.

Richard was so restless that he disguised himself and quietly slipped out of the side door of the Daming Palace with only Viscount Dong Jie and Lieutenant General Li Wu, and embarked on a private visit incognito.

The three of them boarded an ordinary carriage without any emblems. The carriage was not big, but it was pulled by two handsome horses. The rubber wheels of the carriage were particularly thick, indicating that the load was not light.

This is actually a specially made carriage equipped with bulletproof steel plates. It looks ordinary, but there is something extraordinary inside.

The carriage drove on the wide Danfengmen Street. Most of the buildings on both sides of the street were 4 to 5 stories, with Chinese cornices and brackets, as well as European-style Roman colonnades. Almost all kinds of architectural features are present, and it looks like all nations.

Architecture Museum.

This reflects the inclusiveness of Chang'an, an international metropolis. In the 4.5-meter-wide green area in the center of Danfengmen Street, the tall trees are lush, and the low shrubs are in full bloom with flowers, which is particularly beautiful.

The horses that come and go have a pocket behind their buttocks. This is to prevent the horses from defecating everywhere and polluting the street environment.

The aristocratic carriage is covered with a brocade horse jacket embroidered with the family crest, and the dung bag is also hidden inside, giving it an indescribably high-class feel.

Sitting in the stable carriage, Richard crossed his legs and drank leisurely with a glass of French champagne in his hand. His expression was extremely relaxed and comfortable, and he chatted with Viscount Dong Jie beside him.

"Your Majesty, after more than a week of repairs, the leading troops of the Colorado Corps have taken trains to the north one after another. The subsequent rest and recuperation troops will arrive in the north within half a month according to the train transportation plan."

"Oh...very good."

"Your Majesty, Bismarck, the Ambassador of the Kingdom of Prussia, strongly requested to go to the front line to study and observe the military operations of our Kingdom at close range. He also brought with him more than a dozen personnel from the Prussian Embassy. It is the Prussian who claims to be your loyal follower, a

A reckless guy."

"Oh...what do you think of this guy?"

"Weichen feels that although this person's behavior is a bit reckless, he has to be said to be very calculating, thoughtful, and capable of action. Generally, envoys stationed abroad cannot make such extraordinary requests. It can be seen that this person is dissatisfied with the status quo.

, secretly harboring great ambitions."

"I do see some problems. Try to make arrangements for him. Bismarck should be a restless master."

"I will obey the Holy Orders."

After giving the casual instructions, Richard did not respond. Instead, he looked outside the carriage. The carriage had turned past Danfengmen Street and entered Chaoyangmen Street. The street was as bustling as ever, with many shops along the street and a constant flow of people.

In the Kingdom of the Tang Dynasty, all Chinese immigrants who were naturalized were required to cut off their long braids. This was an important measure to remove the Manchu poison. As for whether to have long or short hair, it was left to one's own free will and there were no regulations.

Pedestrians on the street are in high spirits, walking with their heads held high and their chests held high, revealing a high level of energy from inside to outside. This is the biggest change among the Chinese people.

With the successive victories in the expansion of the kingdom, the subjects of the higher kingdom had a sense of superiority. They naturally looked down upon Mexicans and Indians, as well as some white people from small European countries.

Only the European powers such as Britain, France, Prussia and Austria could be treated fairly. The further rise of the kingdom's status and national self-confidence had an impact everywhere.

No black slaves could be seen on the streets of the Tang Kingdom, and blacks were not allowed to enter the country, regardless of gender. This was also a place where many white racists felt extremely comfortable.

Due to its open policy and large number of intermarriages with white people, the Datang Kingdom is generally considered a white country by the European and American world. Otherwise, how can we explain the Datang Kingdom's repeated defeats of the United States of America?

They also defeated Russia in Crimea. Is this something that non-white countries can do?

Richard has never cared about such paranoid speculation in the European and American world. To say that Europeans who have always been raised up lack understanding of Eastern culture, it is not the slightest bit.

Even senior oriental scholars in European and American countries generally believe that the Eastern Dynasty was a unified empire that lasted for thousands of years. As for the Qin Emperor and the Han Dynasty, the Emperors of the Tang Dynasty and the Song Dynasty had no idea at all.

I'm even more confused about the modern Manchus entering China. Anyway, they all look like Orientals, so they can't be wrong.

This academic view is still the same even more than 100 years later. It is difficult for scholars who are not intensively studying Eastern history to figure out the replacement of the Qing Dynasty. There is a popular saying;

When the ancient Roman Empire dominated the world, the only hegemon in the world that could compete was China.

During the Byzantine Empire's struggle for world hegemony, the only hegemon in the world that could compete was China.

When the Persian Empire dominated the world, the only hegemon in the world that could compete was China.

When the Ottoman Empire dominated the world, the only hegemon in the world that could compete was China.

There is another one behind;

During the period when the United States insisted on world hegemony, the only hegemon in the world that could compete was the recovering China.

Look, in the context and perception of Europeans and Americans, this China is a China that has been unified for thousands of years. Even though China has entered a new era and has undergone earth-shaking changes, it is often ignored.

The horse-drawn carriage is walking along the bustling streets and alleys, and all you can see are clean streets. There is a public toilet every few hundred meters. The manure in the public toilet is the best farm fertilizer. Every morning and evening, there are manure trucks coming spontaneously.

Clean up.

For this reason, the municipal government has to demarcate areas, and you cannot cross the boundaries to dig out excrement, otherwise it will cause conflicts and fights. Doesn’t it sound weird?

This is actually not surprising

In the 1860s, increasing grain production was a major problem plaguing all countries. Isn't it despicable for the British to go to the site of the Waterloo battlefield to dig up the bones?

Because bone meal is the best source of phosphate fertilizer and is indeed helpful for agricultural harvests, Europeans dig up ancient battlefields and even abandoned cemeteries everywhere to obtain bone meal raw materials.

The first factory of the Coastal Fertilizer Company put into operation in Salem by the Tang Kingdom has produced a steady stream of potash fertilizer products. However, due to limited production, it can only be given priority to the royal family and major noble farms, and social promotion can only be ranked behind.

As for export, don't even think about it. At least within 7 to 10 years, if the potash fertilizer industry of the Tang Kingdom has not developed to a certain height and met its own needs, export will never be considered.

In this year’s spring plowing

Potassium fertilizer has been widely used. It seems that the rice seedlings are now growing vigorously. Compared with the rice seedlings in the field, their growth and size are much stronger. It turns out that a bumper harvest can be expected.

After more than half a year of production, the Salem Fertilizer Plant has solved many mass production process and equipment problems. The output has increased step by step, the production process has become increasingly mature, and it basically has the ability to expand production in large quantities.

In view of this

Coastal Fertilizer Company's second fertilizer plant is already under preparation and will be located in the Los Angeles area in the south. In the future, important agricultural and animal husbandry cities such as Taoyuan City, Peel City, Chihuahua and Jinling will have plans to comprehensively strengthen the Kingdom's

Agricultural and animal husbandry production capacity.

In terms of potash resources, the Kingdom is organizing research into the technology for refining potash in salt mines first developed in Germany. The main purpose is to optimize the brine refining steps and develop large-scale production processes to further reduce costs.

This salt mine refining potash-alkali technology is mainly extracted from salt brine. It currently faces shortcomings such as cumbersome production process, low refining efficiency, high cost, etc., and it has no large-scale promotion value for the time being.

To say whether there are salt mines in the Tang Kingdom is to underestimate people.

The rich resources of the Tang Kingdom almost made the powerful countries such as Britain and France red-eyed. Salt Lake City, the capital of Utah Province, is located next to the huge salt lake. It is the second largest salt lake in the world after the Dead Sea, with a salt content of up to 25%.

.

It is located on the edge of the Nevada Desert, with large white salt crystal particles as far as the eye can see. Natural rock salt is everywhere, and the reserves are so huge that it is unimaginable.

45 kilometers southwest of the Salt Lake is the world's largest open-pit copper deposit discovered so far. Unfortunately, due to limited manpower, material resources and market demand, such a large resource treasure house has not yet been developed.

The Sierra Nevada Mountains in the province of Utah alone are rich in resources such as copper, lead, iron, coal, diamonds, etc., which can be mined on a large scale for thousands of years. Are these resources rich?

In 1847, Salt Lake City was founded by a group of Mormon believers led by Brigham Young. Since then, the church's general headquarters has been located in Salt Lake City, and more than half of the local Chinese people are members of the church.

Therefore, as long as the process problem of chemical synthesis of methane is solved and it has the value of large-scale promotion, raw materials are not a problem at all.

The exports of silver and copper from the Tang Dynasty rank first in the world today. Gold is collected and stored by major banks to expand currency issuance and support domestic economic development, and is rarely sold to the outside world.

As of the first quarter of 1860;

In the Tang Kingdom, the gold reserves of the Royal Red Oak Bank alone reached 342 tons, ranking second in the world after the Royal Bank of Scotland of the British Empire.

Today, the Royal Red Oak Bank is still steadily collecting and storing gold at a rate of 30 to 35 tons per year, and the same is true for the other seven joint note-issuing banks of the Tang Dynasty. It is commonly known as the "Eight King Kong" among the people.

These eight kings are Royal Red Oak Bank, Bank of America, Royal Chang'an Bank, Bank of Los Angeles, Bank of Communications, National Industrial and Commercial Bank of China, North American Colonization Bank, and Royal West Coast Bank. They are the backbone of the rise of the Tang Kingdom's financial industry and the largest of the eight.

bank.

The eight banks have the largest gold reserves of 342 tons, and the Royal West Coast Bank, which has the smallest reserves, also reserves 51 tons of gold. The total gold reserves are quite amazing, which effectively ensures the strong currency value of Tang Yuan and maintains the stable development of the financial order of the Tang Dynasty.
