Chapter 355 Who Invented America
"The Gathering Coffin?"

Captain Jack frowned and asked, "What is that?"

Tia Doma explained with a smile: "The coffin of dead souls is as big as an ordinary treasure chest, and it needs a key to open it. The function of the coffin of dead souls is to keep the organs fresh and keep them in an immortal state."

Captain Jack looked puzzled, "It sounds weird, why should I look for that thing? I don't need to preserve my organs."

Tia Doma laughed and said, "What you really want is not the Death's Coffin, but the contents of the Death's Coffin."

Second Officer Gibbs couldn't help asking, "What's in the Dead Man's Chest?"

Xiaopi next to him said excitedly: "It should be gold!"

"Tia Doma said that the coffin of dead souls is used to hold fresh organs!" Lao Lei sneered, "I hope... there is a living eye in the coffin of dead souls, so my blind eye It will be healed completely."

"Do you know...Davy Jones?" Tia Doma smiled charmingly.

The pirates present nodded in awe.

Davy Jones, the strongest pirate in the legends, the captain of the Flying Dutchman, the devil with the Sea God Beast...

Xufeng noticed that when Tia Doma mentioned Davy Jones, her pockmarked face was full of pride and intimacy.

Of course, such emotions disappeared in an instant.

While playing with her dreadlocks, Tia Doma said with a smile: "Davy Jones was the first European sailor to reach America. He was a great sailor and a very ambitious man. He ran into something that makes men distressed."

Bill asked curiously: "What can make men distressed?"

Tia Doma smiled and stroked Bill's hand, "Yeah, what can make men distressed?"

"The sea?" Gibbs asked.

"Treasure?" Xiaopi asked.

"A combination of justice and evil?" Lao Lei asked.

Everyone present looked at Lao Lei, and no one understood how this guy would say such a sentence.

Captain Jack shrugged, "...women are women. In this world, the only thing that can trouble a man is a woman."

Xiaopi said unconvinced: "That's not necessarily the case, women can't make me and Lao Lei distressed, right, Lao Lei?"

Lao Lei nodded, "However, we are all troubled by love."

Captain Jack frowned and said, "You two...don't count."

Tia Doma said proudly: "That's right, a woman, a woman he fell in love with but could never have."

"Wait, I heard a version that Davy Jones fell in love with the sea," Gibbs said.

Tia Doma was not surprised at all, she smiled even brighter, "The same story, different versions, but in fact they are all the same in essence, the woman he fell in love with is as changeable as the sea , cruel, merciless, and untamed. Davy Jones never ceased to love her, and still does, and that love cost him dearly."

"—Wait! Wait!" Xiaopi interrupted Tia Doma's narration, frowning and said: "This story is a bit outrageous, you just said that Davy Jones was the first sailor to reach America, As far as I know, the first person to arrive in America should be Columbus in 1492. So far, it has been more than 200 years. If Davy Jones is a crew member of Columbus, then Davy Jones has lived till now, At least they are close to three hundred years old, right? People who are three hundred years old... can they still fall in love?"

The other pirates also agreed with Xiaopi's question.

Tia Doma grinned, she first glanced at Xufeng, and then said lightly: "First of all, I didn't say that Davy Jones was the first person to reach the American continent. My original words were that Dai Vie Jones, the first European sailor to reach the American continent."

"What's the difference?" Pippi asked.

Tia Doma laughed and said: "Of course it's different. The American continent was not discovered by Europeans, but by Indians as early as 4 years ago. The reason why Europeans say they discovered the American continent, but It’s just an arrogant attitude of looking down on low civilizations from high civilizations. The American continent already existed before the Europeans discovered it, and what the Europeans brought to the American continent was only racial destruction and endless plunder.”

"Besides, if we really want to talk about discovery, it's not the American continent discovered by Columbus." Tia Doma sneered.

Gibbs asked in surprise, "Could it be Davy Jones?"

Tia Doma smiled and shook her head, "Of course not. You are all sailors, and you should know that Columbus arrived in the American continent in 1492, but you don't know that as early as 1421, Zheng He's Ming Fleet had arrived He discovered America and drew detailed sea charts. Columbus found the American continent only by using Zheng He’s sea charts, and later Magellan also used Zheng He’s sea charts.” [Note 1]

"This……"

All the pirates present looked at each other in blank dismay.

Xufeng couldn't help but nodded secretly.

In the history textbooks of various countries, it is written that Columbus discovered the American continent, but this is not true.

When Zheng He sailed to the West, he had already arrived in the Americas. Zheng He brought seeds, silk, porcelain, and skill books to the Americas, and in exchange for peppers, corn, goldware and other commodities.

Zheng He's voyages to the West, the use of trade exchanges, rather than plunder.

This is also the reason why the world is not impressed enough with Zheng He, but with colonists such as Britain and France.

If Zheng He had adopted the method of plundering and opening up overseas governors' colonies at that time, then the current Tang people have already set foot on the whole world.

The dynasty of the Tang Dynasty can complete capital accumulation by plundering the wealth of other low-power countries, and it will also become the first country to have modern civilizations such as steam engines and telephones.

[Note 1] Regarding the topic of who "discovered" America first, this paragraph is not YY. If you are interested, you can read "1421: The Year of the Discovery of America" ​​written by British historian Gavin Menzies. In addition In the British National Maritime Museum, there is also a nautical chart from the 16th year of Yongle, that is, 1418. This map draws the outlines of America, Europe, Africa, and Australia in detail, and shows the appearance of Australian aborigines and American Indians. There are accurate records of appearance and customs.

So why haven't the textbooks been changed?Is it still said that Columbus discovered the American continent?

Because... foreigners do not admit that it was Zheng He who discovered the American continent.

Do you think that with evidence and facts, foreigners can really admit that you are better than them?
No, they only admit the facts they are willing to admit, they don't want to admit it, even if you slap the evidence on their faces, they won't admit it.

Zheng He's fleet was only for exploration and trade, so even though the American continent was discovered, it did not cause harm to the Americas, Africa, and Australia. Everyone listened to the story of Zheng He's voyages to the West, and it was just an anecdote.

The Europeans discovered the American continent, but it was like discovering a treasure.

They plundered, possessed, and to this day, they are still lying on the American continent and sucking blood.

For hundreds of years, they killed all the natives of the American continent, and the Indians were almost extinct.

Having said so much, I just want to prove one thing: our ancestors were awesome, we are the descendants, don't kneel down and lick foreigners.

The foreigners are awesome in some ways, but their awesomeness is based on plundering bloody gold.
