- Although it has just experienced a war in the British colonies, and the empire has launched a strategy for the Caribbean.
But on the faces of people living in Manhattan, there is no trace of the tension and uneasiness caused by the war. They still do what they are supposed to do every day, especially the British people who work here.
It seems that the fall of the British colonies has nothing to do with them.
Actually, it doesn¡¯t really matter.
The benefits of the British colonies cannot be enjoyed by ordinary people like them.
So even if it was brought under the control of the Song Empire, it would be nothing.
On the contrary, after the Song Empire takes over the British colonies, if it builds cities in Pennsylvania and Virginia, there will be more jobs, right?
Now more and more Europeans are entering Lanxiang Technical School, and everyone is constantly changing their lives and environment through their own efforts and study.
For them, of course, they hope that the more jobs the better.
At the same time, the shops or houses of Chinese people in Manhattan have been decorated with a new look thanks to the efforts of their owners.
When the Europeans who didn¡¯t understand asked, they realized that it was a festival.
There is no Christmas or European holidays here in Manhattan. The empire strictly prohibits Europeans from celebrating European holidays. This is probably the only criticism.
¡°Chinese New Year¡± is a very unfamiliar word to Europeans.
Through the Chinese geneticists in Manhattan and the government propaganda headed by Zhao Hongyu, they learned that this kind of festival is the most important of the year and it is also a festival from the ancient East.
And the empire has given regulations that there will be Dragon Boat Festival, Double Ninth Festival and other oriental festivals in the future.
During these festivals, shop owners give rooms to shop workers. If you don't take a vacation, you will have to pay three times your salary during the vacation.
Europeans have little interest in celebrating holidays, but the salary will be a little higher during the holidays, which makes Europeans very happy. Therefore, they have no objection at all to celebrating this kind of Eastern festival.
Externally, Zhao Hongyu and the others have always claimed that they are descendants of a dynasty called the Song Dynasty from the ancient Eastern Continent. Those who traveled across the ocean came to the American continent and established the continuation of the dynasty.
Although there are some loopholes in this, Europeans will not examine these issues.
¡°Anyway, as long as they have jobs and money here in Manhattan, they won¡¯t care about too many things.
Nowadays, Manhattan¡¯s commercial streets are filled with a strong flavor of ¡®New Year¡¯.
Various New Year decorations. Couplets, red paper, and other small commodities began to appear on the streets and in shops.
The Chinese people¡¯s longing for the ¡®Nian¡¯ has also aroused great interest in Europeans.
Because as the Chinese New Year gets closer, these Europeans working in Manhattan find that the Chinese people they come into contact with are getting better and better, and they are becoming easier to contact.
You know, earlier on. Chinese people are very arrogant.
For their "** silk" in Europe, they are usually not too much.
The attitude of the Chinese gentlemen seems to be related to the upcoming Chinese New Year.
So, Europeans working in Manhattan want to know. What is the Chinese New Year all about?
Ordinary people are busy preparing for the New Year, and Zhao Hongyu himself is not idle either.
After all, he has been in this world for two years and spent two winters without festivals.
In the third winter, which is now, he has met all the conditions for the Year of the Dog.
And based on the reaction of the intelligence agencies. People with Chinese genes at the bottom are also very eager to celebrate the New Year.
By celebrating the New Year, they can have higher expectations for the future. And summarize the gains and losses of this year.
How could Zhao Hongyu object to such a request?
Therefore, he spent a large amount of money from his small treasury to buy a large number of new clothes for Emma and Sarah. At the same time, he found a big slave merchant from France and paid a deposit. After that, a large number of slaves were ordered from him to be given to Sarah and Emma as gifts.
At the same time, he also wrapped up a large sum of money as a New Year red envelope for Sarah and Emma.
¡°Everyone in Manhattan is inspired by the Chinese people, and everyone is caught up in the longing and expectation for the ¡®New Year¡¯.
From now on, in the Song Empire, Europeans will also have to outnumber Chinese people.Today, as for European festivals, let them disappear in the hearts of Europeans.
Zhao Hongyu is not interested in European festivals.
As an angry youth and a believer in the concept of Greater China, Wang Shan disdains celebrating European festivals.
Therefore, he always instills some extreme ideas and concepts into Zhao Hongyu, so that Zhao Hongyu will always be more or less influenced by Wang Shan.
?According to Wang Shan¡¯s words, there is nothing better about European festivals.
It¡¯s better to celebrate our Chinese festival.
As for the needs of Europeans, we don¡¯t need to consider them at all.
??Besides, do they have needs?
Also, the needs of Europeans in this era are indeed simple, and they have no need for the holidays.
As long as they can have food to eat, a job, and money to make, they will be very happy.
Today¡¯s Europeans actually do not have high expectations for life, and they are far less difficult than those of later generations.
In addition to Manhattan, Quebec and Ontario City, there are five other developing "townships" that have also begun to prepare for the New Year.
?????????????????????????? No matter what, it¡¯s fine as long as everyone is having a good time.
The Indians are very concerned about this, because they like to have fun.
Since joining the Song Empire and becoming citizens of the empire, the Indians under the empire have followed rules and regulations. They have never been as lively and lively as before in the tribe.
Now that there is such an opportunity, how can the Indians be unhappy?
From the heart, Indians are romantic and passionate.
It seems that most uncivilized peoples in the world have this kind of character.
However, with the advancement of knowledge and civilization, this character gradually disappeared.
I don¡¯t know if this is human tragedy or real progress?
With Zhao Hongyu¡¯s current identity and status, he doesn¡¯t have to rush to the front lines to do everything himself.
Like in many novels, the protagonist becomes the emperor. You must also participate in every battle and fight on the front line with the enemy.
In the eyes of Wang Shan and others, such a thing is definitely an idiot¡¯s approach.
They will never let Zhao Hongyu do this.
Last year there was no way, after all, their strength was not good enough at that time.
But compared to last year, it¡¯s already a huge change, isn¡¯t it?
Therefore, Wang Shan and the others would never let Zhao Hongyu do anything that needed to be done on the front line at that time last year.
Therefore, whether it is to attack the British colonies, or to use the newly formed imperial fleet to attack the Caribbean.
Zhao Hongyu just listened to the report. Then just look at the file.
¡° Fighting on the battlefield can be left to the subordinates.
Seeing that the new year is approaching, Wang Shan and the others also began to summarize the year.
The framework of the Song Empire has been set up, now it just needs to wait for development.
In the north, with Quebec City as the central point, the construction can be extended to the northern continent, so that the entire northern territory can be controlled.
And because Quebec has become the territory of the empire, the empire has no worries in the north.
At the same time, news came from Quebec about the remnants of the Iroquois tribe. After a year of collection, all of them have been wiped out. The last remaining Iroquois rebel tribe was finally overtaken by the army in the north and massacred.
At this point, there will no longer be turmoil in the north of the empire.
And Quebec City. Fortresses and supply points began to be established along the St. Lawrence River to dock the huge fleet in the future to replenish supplies.
The empire established a secret naval base in Ontario City. In the future, the repair or hiding of the navy's warships will be completed in Lake Ontario.
Lake Ontario is fully capable of carrying the Empire's heavy battleships. Moreover, there are many suitable places for berthing warships on the vast lake surface and along the coast.
If you don¡¯t take advantage of this, you¡¯ll be really sorry for yourself.
And the St. Lawrence River connects Lake Ontario and the Atlantic Ocean. Its importance is self-evident.
Therefore, it is very necessary to establish fortresses, forts, and security facilities along the coast.
Because if the enemy enters from the estuary on the east side of the St. Lawrence River, they can directly enter the hinterland of the empire.
This is a very dangerous thing??
Therefore, protecting the St. Lawrence River has become the most important thing in Quebec.
At the same time, Quebec also cultivated a large amount of fertile land during this year.
With the addition of commercial trade between cities, the lives of the French people in Quebec City and the current French citizens of the Empire have been greatly improved.
Because life has become easier, their minds have become stable.
The public security situation has been maintained very well, and there have been basically no homicides for three months.
From this point of view, the French also began to accept the rule of the empire and regarded themselves as a member of the empire.
Of course, the propaganda of the foreign empire said that those French people were all subjects of Sarah's territory.
After all, Sarah still owns a large amount of land in Quebec.
Although the empire controls 80% of the land in Quebec, even the land under Sarah's personal name is not a small amount.
¡°And she is still the nominal lord of Quebec, so the French who have joined the empire will not do anything wrong for Sarah¡¯s sake.
Especially the propaganda department of the empire, in Quebec, they always spare no effort to promote Sarah in front of Zhao Hongyu, seeking better welfare benefits for the people in their Quebec territory, which makes the French people very grateful.
¡°But Sara herself knew that she had never done anything for them at all.
Those words said by the propaganda department are all false
But no matter what, whether true or false, Quebec is now stable. - Didn't finish reading? Add this book to your favoritesI'm a member and bookmarked this chapterCopy the address of this book and recommend it to your friends for pointsChapter error? Click here to report
