Ji Tang

Chapter 716 Take you and your child home

The next day, when Tang Checkpoint went up to the high platform and promised to lead everyone home in two years, the entire gathering cheered.

Everyone was happy, some shed tears, some cried with joy, and some even cried loudly.

Seven years, a full seven years.

How many times in the middle of the night have I dreamed about the place where he was born and raised, but when I wake up from the dream, the feeling of loss is simply crazy.

It is worth mentioning that many people have formed new families with local women over the years, which is inevitable.

The good thing is that there are not too many people, only a few hundred people, and the older children are now over five years old.

The Maya is a slave society, and there is certainly no shortage of places like brothels. Those who need it can solve the problem by themselves, and all expenses will be reimbursed.

This can be regarded as a compromise by Tang Jian, otherwise there would be a big mess.

It’s not that some people don’t think about having multiple women, but they really don’t have the same aesthetics.People here like slender heads, so they will restrain their feet when they are very young, just like the feet were restrained in the Ming and Qing Dynasties.

Some even hang beads above their noses to change their face shape.

Such a face was considered deformed by the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty and was impossible to accept.

Those who got married were lucky. Many of them were from lower-class slaves and were very similar to the Indians in the northern continent, so they took action.

But there are too few such women. This is the one they met by chance, and they are to be sacrificed to the gods.

This matter almost caused a conflict, but in the end it was Tang Jian who came forward to resolve the matter.

There are probably more than 600 descendants of these people. There is no shortage of food here, and you can hunt a lot of prey if you go out casually, so they live without restraint.

Later, Tang Jianji stopped them and told them that if there were too many babies, there would not be enough space on the ship, so they could stay here!

This trend was stopped in time, and now no children have been born in three years.

This can be regarded as the earliest population control plan!
"Husband, do you want to leave?"

When Zhang Yi returned to his house, a woman wearing Tang Dynasty women's clothing said nervously.

She doesn't look big, but her face is somewhat different from that of a Tang Dynasty woman. Her face is dark, with hard lines and rough skin.

He spoke in Tang Dynasty dialect that he was not very proficient in and looked at Zhang Yi nervously.

Zhang Yi is one of the three thousand soldiers and a corps commander.

And this woman was his wife. During the Tang Dynasty, his family was poor and had no money to marry a wife.There are many brothers in the family, and he is the youngest. It is impossible for the family to give him too many choices.

When he found out that he could find a wife, he signed up without hesitation.

He did not look down on his wife's background. Although she was not very good, she was very good to him and her children. After a few years, he finally recognized this wife from the bottom of his heart!

"It's okay, don't worry! I will take you and the child with me when I go back. The son of my old Zhang family cannot stay here. I am still waiting for him to provide for me until I die!"

Zhang Yi's words made the woman feel at ease instantly.

All these years, she thought she was living in a dream, and Xili married a man who was said to be from a place across the sea, far away from here.

But she is very happy. She can bite her tongue with delicacies, exquisite utensils, and gorgeous clothes. These are things she never dreamed of, but now she uses them all day long.

People here were very happy these days. She found out that the kind elder would take everyone home soon.

This made her panic, even scared.

The stability here and her husband's care fascinated her, and she didn't want to go back to the past.

Now hearing that her husband is taking her home, can she not be happy?Over the years, she had heard too many descriptions of that 'home'. It was powerful, rich, and beautiful. Everything made him feel that it should be the residence of God.

She was both excited and uneasy about where to go now.

Will her husband's family accept her?Will she accept her child?

This scene plays out in hundreds of families, but not surprisingly, all are willing to go home with their wives and children.

This is what Tang Jian means. Although it will increase his pressure, he thinks it is worth it.

This continent is a land given by God. God has given it to you. If you don’t take it, there will be disaster!

When these children grow up, they will have both Han and Indian blood, and they will be more accepted and trusted by the Indians. This is also one of his plans.

After receiving the exact news, the entire gathering place suddenly changed into a different atmosphere, and everyone was discussing going home.

No one thought that Tang Jian was lying to them. If he wanted to lie, he would have lied to them long ago. Why wait now?

It wasn't that Tang Jian didn't want to deceive them, but he was waiting for an opportunity.

He has been suppressing his promise to everyone for these years just for this day.

Once some words are spoken, he will be held responsible. He can continue to deceive the soldiers, but once he fails to deliver, his prestige will be greatly damaged. .

When the soldiers no longer believed in him, that would be the beginning of turmoil, so he kept suppressing them.

It's okay now, I've almost done what I need to do.Two years at most is enough time for them to prepare. During this time, he will send a fleet to explore here and try to draw a map here. This is also to prepare for the future.

He didn't know if Datang would come here again, but once His Majesty made this decision, the map would become an extremely important thing.

Ji Qing returned to Karl again. Looking at the tall and magnificent building, he still couldn't believe that it was built by a person in the Stone Age.

The exquisite sculpture reliefs, regular architectural art, and beautiful painted pottery all illustrate the high level of civilization here.

But what puzzled him was why bronze and iron ware were not developed?
They have explored and found that there are iron ore and copper mines here, and there are quite a lot of them.

Kuhaaga once asked Datang what weapons were made of, but they still didn't tell each other in the end.

After all, once the people here mastered the manufacturing of iron tools, it would not be a good thing for Datang.

He only said that it was made of a material that was unique to the Tang Dynasty and was not available here.

Regardless of whether the other person believes it or not, it’s just like that. If you don’t believe it, go find it!
However, based on his understanding, there is no environment for metal smelting at all, and the only metal smelting is gold.

There was so much gold here that he had the urge to grab it directly.

Ji Qing's very different attire frequently attracted attention on the street, but no one came forward.

In recent years, as Datang’s exchanges with Karl have continued to deepen, more and more people from Datang have entered Karl.From surprise and panic at the beginning, to now we are used to it.

Now maybe all that's left is curiosity.

Ji Qing also smiled and nodded in greeting, looking very kind. The other party also smiled back, and some women even winked at him, which frightened him to speed up his pace.

This kind of aesthetics is really not his cup of tea. All the students who come out of the school would rather hold back than look for the woman here.

Soon, he came to a tall temple. This was the place where they communicated. It was a temple of the sun.

It is full of knowledgeable scholars. They live here and communicate and study with the students here all day long.
