Chapter 176: Nationalism and ID Cards

The second group of people who were shot were the merchants. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Finally, someone discovered that for those merchants, they really did not identify with the Chinese civilization, not to mention their skin color, but their etiquette, religion, and even living habits were very different.

Of course, everyone understands that this does not have to be exactly the same, but just two or several types of civilizations.

Slowly, some well-intentioned people began to talk about Huayi's discrimination------

Of course, as mentioned above, the Great Song Dynasty at this time still has the spirit of compatibility and inclusiveness from top to bottom, although the merchants do not belong to the Chinese civilization, but why not do you do business to earn some money? !

When it comes to different skin tones and looks, this is not the main difference, this one is most obvious on the island of Liuqiu.

Some of the black-and-white slaves that Zhang Guoan's owner had previously bought had already been removed from slave status, and the people had already earned the money they had paid to buy them at that time.

The "freed" black and white slaves have become free people, meaning they can go wherever they want.

However, in the years of life and labor, whether forced or active, they fully accepted the Chinese civilization, and the simplest proof is that they enjoy all the festivals of the Chinese nation very seriously, which may be related to the reason why they could have holidays and eat better food during those festivals.

They live in full accordance with the way of life on the island, abide by the laws of the island, and fully accept the cultural requirements of the island.

If you look at it according to their cultural identity, they already belong to the standard Chinese nation.

There is no problem with the hearing of these people's Da Song dialect, and even some of them can write Da Song characters, and they can appreciate and like some traditional arts.

Zhang Guoan and his friends really did not like the status of slaves, but they had to accommodate them, and they could only dissolve their personal relations within their own scope and within a certain period of time------ they did not want to be an example, but they looked farther, and the work efficiency of slaves was extremely poor, and they could never compare with the free people.

Even if they become free people, will they not work? The answer is definitely no.

Life on the island can be said to be more comfortable in this world, and this place may be more free and have development opportunities.

As long as you don't violate the laws and regulations here, as long as you work hard and diligently, you can basically get rich.

Slowly, the black and white freedmen had a division of labor.

The Negro freedmen were gifted in planting, breeding, and weaving, and were more engaged in these trades; The white freedmen were gifted in technical processing and handicrafts, and there were many people engaged in these trades.

At first, the owner of Zhang Guoan Island thought that some of them would definitely embark on the road back to their hometown, after all, there is now a lot of sea trade, almost every day there are hundreds of sea ships docked at various wharves on Liuqiu Island, and almost the same number of sea ships sail every day.

But the result was beyond his expectations, and no one left.

Later, he understood that it was not that they were not homesick, but that the island of Liuqiu was perhaps the best and safest place in the world to make money, and those people still wanted to save money.

They are now openly fond of money just like the general public of the Great Song Dynasty.

They were all given their identity cards.

The ID card is in the style of Liuqiu, pressed with two pieces of celluloid, the front of the inside is the four big characters of "Liuqiu Citizen", and the back is the name of the holder and other information.

There are four sentences in particular:

1. The government requires all countries, powers, and power departments in the world to provide convenience to those who hold this certificate, and to give those who hold this certificate cooperation and assistance in accordance with local laws.

2. The government solemnly promises that no matter where in the world, when the holder of the certificate is in danger, all those who provide legal, reasonable and goodwill help to the holder of the certificate will be rewarded accordingly.

3. This card can only be held by yourself, please keep it properly, if you lose it, please replace it as soon as possible.

4. No matter where the holder of the certificate is in the world, no matter when, the government will always stand behind you.

They don't care that there is a problem with this ID card, and in this time and space, it is like a watermark in a money banknote, and no one may be able to forge it.

Wang Defa said: "These words are tough enough! There will be a lot of wars in the future because of these words!! ”

Zhang Guoan, the owner of the island, said: "If we can't even protect the citizens who pay taxes to us, then we are really in vain-------

Of course, it is not possible for anyone to issue an ID card, at least if you have lived and settled on the island for more than two years.

The Great Song Dynasty government did not publicly recognize the legitimacy of this document, and certainly did not publicly deny that this time and space, merchants and pedestrians can walk without borders in the Great Song Dynasty.

At least in the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, even the merchants could walk at will, and there was no ID card at all, so in Liuqiu Island, the issuance of ID cards did not attract too many people's attention.

It's convenient to have it, but it's still alive without it, and you can do business all over the world.

It just so happens that Zhang Guoan's job of processing ID cards does not need to be too urgent.

The important role of ID cards was slowly discovered later.

At this time, the Hui merchants among those merchants were more conspicuous.

They are different from the Great Song people in terms of diet, they are not like each other, mainly in some clothing and etiquette, and the difference is very obvious.

Of course, to distinguish between the Qing and the Yi is not to exclude any nationality, but to find out what kind of nationality we are.

In this way, they will not do the thing of recognizing the thief as their father, or deliberately turn a blind eye selectively, and regard other people's victories as their own, so that their own will also become other people's very casually.

Figuring out the real history and nation is not for hatred, but for the sake of never happening again, maybe, this is one of the ways to break out of the infinite loop?!

In short, the "Liuqiu Times" is carefully playing with the nerve of nationalism, because it is a double-edged sword in itself, and it even hurts itself even more if it is not good!

In order to be cautious, the owner of Zhang Guoan, who has always seen it clearly, has to personally handle the relevant content, and he also has to show it to Wang Defa's family, after all, the two people's thoughts will be more comprehensive.

Wang Defa's family was excited at that time, and the Great Song Dynasty government immediately sent out 200 smart and clever young people, claiming that they wanted to learn how to receive telegrams by cable.

At the beginning, they opened their mouths to set up a cable telegraph line from Lin'an City to the Sichuan region.

Wang Defa's family smiled and wrote their own requirements to them, saying that it is impossible to have five years!

And there is mainly a demand for technical personnel, not only money, but also a lot of materials.

Isn't it just to ask for people, the Great Song Dynasty government sent 200 selected young people at that time.

Of course, the execution is so strong, or because the Great Song Dynasty officials personally ordered a relationship, and if they want those old officials to recognize the role of this thing, I really don't know how long it will take. (To be continued.) )
