Chapter 974 The Miracle Ship (Second Update, please subscribe)
"In other words, the rulers of the Ming Empire are the most cunning rulers in the world!"

Again, Karl emphasized emphatically.

"Because they are just using some small favors to win over and bribe the people. Their purpose of buying is not because they have "kindness" in their hearts, but to rule the people for a longer time. This is where they are cunning!"

Can you be cunning!
Not to mention other people, just how the Manchus crushed China into what it looked like. There was extreme poverty everywhere, and the people were so poor that they couldn’t even put on their pants. Eating bran and drinking water was a prosperous age, and eating melons and vegetables would be a good day like heaven. .

But that family can still rule for hundreds of years.

Is it just violent suppression?
More is the wrist of the ruler!

Broke your bones, and you have to thank Dade's "Thank you Lord Ron".

"Maybe! But..."

After a moment of thought, Friedrich said.

"Isn't this exactly what we want? If the rulers of Europe can formulate welfare laws that benefit ordinary people like the rulers of Ming Dynasty, then ordinary people will naturally be able to live happily like them. "

"But, my friend!"

After smoking the ashes from the pipe, Carl patted his friend on the shoulder and said.

"Do you think this is possible? How can those extravagant and extravagant rulers care about ordinary people starving? No, they will never take the initiative to give benefits to the people!"

Facing his friend's arbitrariness, Friedrich asked back.

"What about Daming? They...why can they?"

"so……"

Carl filled the pipe with tobacco again, nodded the pipe, and took a few puffs before he spoke for a long time.

"The Ming Empire is an alternative among all empires. If I have the opportunity, I really want to meet this imperialist. I want to see what kind of person he is? Like many people Is he a righteous and benevolent ruler, as he praises? Or a hypocritical and cunning ruler?"

"Haha, this is simply impossible!"

The idea of ​​a friend made Friedrich laugh out loud.

"Don't forget, you are a guy who was expelled by many countries, how could the emperor see you? But..."

Friedrich turned his gaze to the north, and said with emotion.

"Actually, I'm also very curious. As for that emperor, if I can meet him once, I might get a lot of answers!"

People are always curious.

It is undeniable that many people all over the world are full of curiosity about the Shengde Emperor of Ming Dynasty. After all, his rise itself is a miracle.

According to Huaxia, he started in the grass and created the eternal foundation here.

According to Xiyang, he staged a plan for the prince to restore the country.

In short, the career he has achieved is enough to make any ruler feel ashamed, even if he comes to Alexandria, he cannot compare with him.

Who has been able to build an empire with an area of ​​nearly 20 million square kilometers and territories spread across four continents in just 2000 years?
no one ever!
Throughout the ages, he is the first entrepreneur to create such a great cause.

Facing such a miracle, who would not be curious?

Everyone knows curiosity.

But there are some things that will never have an answer. Perhaps the official of Da Ming will give such an answer, but one thing is certain is that there are too many mysteries on the road to the rise of Da Ming.

What is the sound of sirens resounding through the pampas grassland.

What Gatling's curse.

That is, at the beginning of the Nanhua landing, there were too many questions, which left many historians racking their brains but could not get an answer. What's more, there were so many puzzling things that happened on the road to the rise of a great power.

It can be said that Nanhua—from the day the "Antelis" sailed into Nanhua Bay, it has left too many mysteries in the world, and these mysteries will never have any answers.

Of course, not many people will look for any answers, and many of them are said as "urban legends" at best.

In Nanhua, almost every old immigrant has a "Legend of the Emperor".

Regarding this, Xu Haiyang, as a veteran reporter, can be said to be very clear. In the past ten years, as a veteran reporter, he has interviewed many first- and second-generation immigrants. Unlike later immigrants, first- and second-generation immigrants They all had more or less direct contact with the emperor himself, especially a generation of immigrants who came together by boat and built this city together on the deserted beach.They resisted the Mapuche attack together, and because of this, there are too many stories about the emperor in a generation of immigrants.

"What has Emperor Shengde been doing all those years?"

Once again, facing the early morning light, Xu Haiyang, who came to the landing point of Nanhua Bay, stared at the "Andelise" moored in the bay, and such a question popped up in his heart.

His question is very simple, in fact - where did the emperor come from, and how did he get to Buenos Aires.What did the emperor do in the ensuing years?

"You like this ship too, don't you?"

Just at this time, an old man over sixty years old with a cane came to the pier. He looked at Xu Haiyang curiously, looked at the camera in front of his arms and smiled.

"Yes, this ship may not be very eye-catching, but its story is very exciting and fascinating."

Xu Haiyang replied truthfully.

"Yeah, its story is very exciting, it is simply wonderful, because everything in Daming began with the "Andelise", it began with it!"

He looked longingly at the "Andelis" moored by the trestle bridge, and his tone was filled with a certain kind of pride and pride.

"There is no other ship in the world that can compare with it. The "Great Eastern" may be called the "mother of immigrants", and millions of people may come with it, but...it!"

Pointing to the more than 1000-ton three-masted steam sailboat on the berth, he said emotionally.

"It started this empire!"

Five years ago, after the ship was decommissioned, it was not dismantled, but was acquired by the "Antelis" Association through fundraising. After being refurbished, it was moored on the berth and displayed as a permanent museum. , in the past four years, millions of people have visited the ship.

In Daming, the "Andelis" has long been closely linked with the history of Daming, even in elementary school textbooks, there are articles about it.

"Yeah, so, it is a miracle ship. In fact, sir, I have always been curious about the story before and after this ship sailed out of Buenos Aires..."

In fact, he was not the only one who was curious. I don’t know how many people were curious about what happened before Nanhua was heard.

Of course, what most people are curious about are those unknown stories. After all, there have always been too many mysteries about that emperor.

But no one ever told them the answer.

Answer?

Who on earth can tell them that answer?

There is only one person, and that is the emperor himself!
He paused and looked at the ship.Xu Haiyang said.

"It's not just that I'm curious, I think, as a reporter, I have the responsibility to record all this and tell our descendants."
