Nanming: I can build wonders

Chapter 715 The Sinicization Process of the Yin People (Please Subscribe!)

【Governor of Jinshan】

As night falls, the entire Salmon Square is extraordinarily brightly lit.

Around the very center of the square, a firewood was lit, and a raging fire ignited in an instant.

People from Daming and Yindi'an gathered here, put on new clothes, sang and danced.

Various melon and fruit cakes and salmon sashimi are placed on the table at the side for the big guys to eat.

After a long absence, the figure of a child appeared.

Most of the children are a mix of Yin people and Ming people.

Since Yin people in North America all have black hair and yellow skin, these children are basically not much different from Ming children.

If you want to talk about the difference, it is probably a bit like a child born from the combination of Han Chinese and Tibetans.

Because the Yin people in North America are strikingly similar to the Tibetans from their faces to clothing styles, customs, and living utensils such as catapults for grazing and defense tools.

The god-like faces of Yin people and Tibetans, their nomadic wisdom, and their common belief and awe of all things in nature all make the Han people here feel familiar.

The children picked up a few pieces of pastries and began to eat them. If they dared to be so presumptuous in normal times, they would definitely be criticized by their parents.

But today is the New Year of Ming Dynasty, so you can indulge yourself a bit.

Thanks to Xiao Wu, the governor of Jinshan in the Ming Dynasty, who devoted himself to sinicizing the Yin people, the Yin people now have the same festivals as Daming.

Even their clothes have become Hanfu.

These Yin people came from the Yokut tribe closest to Jinshan City, and their tribe had been helped by the immigrant army of the Ming Dynasty before.

Now, with the help of immigrants from the Ming Dynasty, they have grown gradually. They used to be a tribe of 5000 people, but now they have become a large tribe of 1 people.

The main reason is to annex many tribes who refused to accept Da Ming and were defeated by Da Ming.

Under the flickering of Xiao Wu, governor of Jinshan in the Ming Dynasty, Yokut felt more and more that they were Chinese adherents, so he changed his name to Chaoge Tribe.

Chaoge is the name of the capital of the Shang Dynasty.

The chief of the tribe, Madarao, even changed his name to Yin Wei!

Other clansmen also followed suit, either following the chief and changing their surnames to Yin or Shang.

Later on, the Chaoge tribe simply surrendered to Xiao Wu and chose to join Daming.

Xiao Wu naturally readily agreed to make a great contribution to Ming's naturalization of 1 people in North America!
And the immigrant men of the Ming Dynasty here are also keen to marry women from the Yin people.

Because Yin people are relatively simple, and marriage is easy.

Because the wealth of the Yin people is not measured by property, the richest man is the most capable hunter, and the dowry of a woman is a healthy body and willingness to assist her husband in housework.

When they disagree and don't want to live together again, they can break up by holding a ceremony as simple as marriage, and there is no problem of property division.

However, there are also disadvantages.

There is no clear boundary between unmarried and married couples among Yin people, and chastity is not regarded as a basic moral standard.

Moreover, among very friendly friends, wives were exchanged for one night, which was considered one of the strongest friendships.

Xiao Wu also took a lot of effort to slightly change this custom of the Chaoge Tribe!

On the New Year's Day of 1692, the most lively program of the bonfire meeting started. Yin Cha, the son of the chief of the Chaoge tribe, went to host the program amidst all the lively noise.

"Chief Yin, I saw everyone singing and dancing, and everyone's faces were filled with smiles. It would be great if all the Yin people in Yin Zhou could live and work in peace with Daming and be able to sing and dance!"

"Hey! Governor Xiao, what you said is right! I heard that the Yin people under the rule of the red-haired barbarians in the south have a miserable life!"

Chief Yin Wei, dressed in Hanfu, said with a sigh in Chinese.

"It doesn't matter, in the future there will definitely be more and more people from Ming Dynasty and the army of Ming Dynasty coming, and we will liberate them by then!"

"That's great!"

While the two were exchanging pleasantries, more than a dozen strong men of the Ming Dynasty carried a processed bison into the arena, set them up next to the three bonfires, and began to roast them.

After a while, the fat came out of the bison and dripped on the firewood, making a "squeak" sound.A charming smell of meat filled the air.

At this time, Yin Cha, the son of the chieftain, raised the golden wine cup, stood up and continued to host, saying in Chinese: "Dear brothers of Daming, today is a happy day. You who set out from the rich and powerful Daming, after passing through After all the hard work, I came to Yinzhou, and brought the lost culture to the Yin people, leading us to live a more and more prosperous life, now please cheer for the friendship between Daming and Yin people!"

Yin Cha first drank the tequila in the wine cup in his hand.

This is their Yin Dian's famous wine.

Tequila is a distilled liquor made by distilling agave as raw material.

The Indians have a legend that the gods in the sky hit the agave growing on the hillside with lightning and created tequila wine. According to the legend, it is known that the agave was as early as the age of the ancient Indian civilization.

In the third century AD, the Indian civilizations living in Central America had already discovered the technology of fermenting wine. They used any sugar source available in their lives to make wine, except for their main crop corn and the common local palm juice. , the agave, which is not low in sugar and juicy, is also a natural raw material for wine making.

Naturally, the Indians in California, not far from Central America, also learned to make tequila.

Hearing this toast, Xiao Wu had to click his tongue inwardly: This kid learns Ming culture very quickly!

Then Xiao Wu also read aloud in Chinese: "Long live friendship! Long live Ming Dynasty!"

Other Yin people also shouted, and the atmosphere was very enthusiastic.

After drinking, a group of Yin girls in red costumes walked into the arena lightly, first saluted to the four directions, and then danced lightly to the accompaniment of the bright rhythm of the piano.

There are silver bells hanging on their wrists and ankles. When they move their hands and feet, the silver bells ring, accompanied by the melodious and lively sound of the piano.

Obviously, they were specially nurtured by the Ming culture!

Seeing the dancing postures of these girls from the Yin people, the big Ming men below couldn't help but howl like wolves!
These Yin girls finished singing and dancing, bowed again, and then left the center of the arena, but their resignation aroused even bigger cheers.

Because they went to the immigrant young men of Ming Dynasty, the real friendship began!

At this time, the bison that had been roasted at the beginning were almost six mature, and the strong meaty aroma wafted through the entire camp.

I saw those strong Ming men who were grilling always took out a silver bamboo tube-sized silver tube from the leather bag next to it, opened it carefully, sprinkled the powder inside lightly, landed on the barbecue, and then kept turning it.

After a while, the aroma of the barbecue became more intense.

Then came another silver pot.

It wasn't until five kinds of seasonings were sprinkled on the barbecue in succession that the men stopped and carefully flipped the slightly golden bison meat.

It's cumin sprinkled on top!

North America is the origin of cumin!

With the blessing of wine and delicious food, the beautiful story of a young man from the Ming Dynasty and a girl from the Yin Dynasty begins again!
