In Anning Port, Ningguo Anning City, Simon and Brown were in a teahouse halfway up the mountain, drinking tea while looking at the busy Anning Port in front of them.

Anning Port is currently the second largest port in Tianzhu and the largest city in Ningguo. Ningwang started his career here and set the capital here.

As the country of Ningguo, it also has excellent ports, backed by the Indian continent, and is located at an important trade point on the Indian Ocean route, which has long led to the rapid development and prosperity of Anning City.

After years of development, the population of Anning City has exceeded one million. Yanran is already a big city, with tall buildings and bustling traffic. In addition, the prosperous slaves, spices and cotton trade, Anning City is filled with merchants and trade is very prosperous.

"This Anning Port is so big and prosperous."

Looking down at the Anning Port in front of you, big ships are moored at the port. The slaves unloading here at the wharf are always busy and unstoppable. There are always traffic in front of the door of the commercial building near the port and extremely busy.

A series of spacious cement roads extend to the end of the view, and the traffic is well connected.

This made Simon sigh.

In Europe, even if it is the Republic of Venice, which has the strongest commercial atmosphere, it is difficult to see such a sales scene.

In addition, European cities give people a feeling of being dirty, smelly, and messy. However, the peaceful city of the Ming people in front of them is very clean and tidy. Everything is planned neatly. Both sides of the road are even planted with flowers and plants. When the flowers bloom, the fragrance of flowers wafts.

The buildings, glasses of various colors on them reflect charming light under the sunlight, looking bright and green.

The streets are clean and tidy, so you don’t have to worry about stepping on indescribable objects, or you don’t have to worry about someone sprinkling unpleasant liquid on you from the top of your head.

The shops on the street are full of glass windows, which allow people to see the goods and goods inside at a glance. People are free to enjoy the fun of shopping here.:.

It’s not like a European city. Even Paris in France, it is still smelly, dirty, chaotic, dirty, dirty, messy, messy streets, messy cities, and all kinds of unpleasant smells make you even vomit overnight meals.

As for the pedestrians on the street, most of them were dirty, dressed in rags, and their faces were dirty. In addition, Europeans did not like to take a bath and had beards and long hair. European cities were not a good place at all, which is why many nobles liked to build family castles in the countryside.

At least in the countryside, the air is fresh and there is no need to worry about all kinds of dirty things.

In the peaceful city in front of you, you can't see many phenomena in European cities. What you can see represents wealth, wealth, sunshine, cleanliness, etc.

Even the slaves here, the slaves who do the most physical work, were dressed neatly, cut their hair short and shaved their beards, and they looked clean and didn't look sloppy at all.

Although I have seen Chixia City, Simon has to admire An Ning when she saw that she was so clean and tidy.

"No wonder the Ming people have always said that Europeans are barbarians!"

Simon sighed.

After coming to the territory of the Ming people, he had contacted some Ming people.

The Ming people were full of contempt for Europeans, thinking that Europeans were barbarians, who didn’t like bathing, were hygienic, were very dirty, and were also very barbaric. The newspaper reports about Europe often depicted the dirt and mess of European cities.

Therefore, the Ming people's impression of Europeans was that they were not hygienic and dirty, and at the same time, because a large number of Europeans were sold to the Ming Dynasty as white slaves, Europe was even labeled as slaves.

Now, after seeing Anning City clean and tidy, the Ming people here were dressed gorgeously, decently, confidently and gentle.

Simon also had to admit that the Ming Dynasty is what a truly civilized world should be.

Rich, civilized, clean, polite, knowledgeable, confident and polite to others, this is what people in a civilized world should look like.

In contrast, Europe is even more barbaric robbers, dirty fishermen, and humble slaves.

"The Ming people are actually ahead of the whole world in all aspects!"

Brown slowly drank a sip of tea and looked at An Ningcheng in front of him, and he felt even more.

He has been to the Ming Dynasty for a few years. Although this is his first time to visit Anning City, he has been to Chixia City many times and has contacted many people from the Ming Dynasty.

The people of the Ming Dynasty were actually very friendly, enthusiastic and hospitable.

Their personality is more subtle, Burmese and restrained, pays attention to mean, gentle and gentle, and emphasizes the robber spirit of winning people with virtue rather than Europeans.

After more contact with the Ming people, he understood why the Ming Dynasty could become the most powerful country in the world.

There are so many advantages they have.

Of course, the most important thing is that the Ming people are very smart and hardworking.

The reason why the Ming people were able to rampant the world, sweep the world, and colonize the world was the powerful force in their hands.

"They have an extremely perfect military system. The Ming Empire implemented a compulsory military service system. Every adult male has the obligation to serve in the military and can only join the army after strict selection and testing."

"They don't just pick up weapons and go to battle as soon as they go to the army. Instead, they need to go through long and rigorous training. At the same time, their family background is an innocent family and a good child."

"In the army, we need not only learn a variety of military skills, but also learn cultural knowledge, literacy and Scripting, and many combat skills, etc.."

"In addition, they have also established a special military academy for military talents and at the same time shaped the loyalty and patriotism of these soldiers. The army created in this way is naturally very powerful in combat!"

"Their political system is also extremely perfect. The king has supreme authority, so he can concentrate his efforts on major tasks. However, many things still need to be discussed with the ministers and nobles to deal with them, thus forming an effective centralization."

"Unlike Europe, where aristocrats and kingdoms of all sizes are divided, it is difficult to form effective centralization, and the power of the king cannot be consolidated, so Europe is like a mess."

"In addition, in terms of technology, the Ming Dynasty is much ahead of the world. They are now able to make steam trains, steam ships, and a lot of machines driven by steam, which greatly improves their productivity and creates a steady stream of wealth for them."

"In terms of education, the Ming people attached great importance to it and vigorously established various schools, private schools, etc., and even now the Ming people have basically been able to allow all children to receive basic education, and many educations are still free."

"Can you imagine?"

"The children of the Ming Dynasty are basically in school, and they can read and write. What a terrible thing. You should know that the population of the Ming Dynasty is more than 100 million."

"There was a great nobleman in the Ming Dynasty. He liked to run schools very much and spent tens of millions of taels of silver on education every year!"

Brown sighed while saying it.

This is the thing that shocked him the most.

The people of the Ming Dynasty attached much more importance to education than they imagined. If they did not go to a single place in the Ming Dynasty, they would definitely run schools so that their children could enjoy education and study.

What an incredible thing this is.

You should know that in Europe, studying is something that only nobles and truly rich people can do. Most people are illiterate, illiterate at all, and can't read or write. Even if there are letters in Europe, they have never been to school, so they naturally cannot read or write.

But in the Ming Dynasty, they have actually made it possible for every child to go to school, which also means that in a few years, almost everyone in the Ming Dynasty can read and write.

What a terrible thing to do if it comes to the extremely large population base of the Ming Dynasty.

The Jews knew too well the power of knowledge.

The Jews were able to persist for thousands of years, always maintain their own inheritance and culture, and were always rich, and they were not as simple as doing business on the surface.

Instead, the Jews attached great importance to education and knowledge. They were very willing to devote themselves to their children's education. They helped their children to receive education as much as possible, read more and learn more from an early age.

But even so, the Jews had no way to do the same as the Ming people, vigorously popularize education so that every child could go to school.

But the Ming people are doing this, trying their best to get every child to go to school.

“Let every child go to school?”

"Invest tens of millions of taels of silver a year into education?"

When Simon heard this, he opened his mouth wide.

Although he already knew that the Ming people were very awesome, he did not expect that the Ming people could be so awesome that they would actually let every child go to school. A nobleman was willing to spend tens of millions of taels of silver to invest in education every year.

Tens of millions of taels of silver. Even the king of France, Louis XII, he took out such huge wealth, but the nobles in the Ming Dynasty could easily take it out. The key is to invest in education.

This emphasis on education is really terrible.

"This is just one aspect of the power of the Ming Dynasty. The Ming Dynasty is so powerful that it is hard to match, but I think in more than ten years or twenty years, the Ming Dynasty at that time, its power will probably make everyone feel desperate."

"These countless Ming people who grew up with new education will be more patriotic, master knowledge and skills, and will make them stronger. On the other places and countries around the world may not be matched by the Ming people."

"This is why I said that if I can, I'd better immigrate to Ningguo. Under a powerful empire, life will always be better, and we can also enjoy the many benefits of this powerful empire."

Brown said with a smile.

He is not a pedantic person, nor is he a stubborn person.

For those among the Jews who always adhere to the ancient tradition, they are extremely xenophobic, form small groups, and live the life of ascetic monks. They are unwilling to integrate into the world or see the world clearly.

Even though they moved to Ningguo, they still wanted to continue their thousand-year traditions in Ningguo and were unwilling to contact the people of the Ming Dynasty, but they also thought that the Ming Dynasty, like Europe, relied on the meager knowledge and ability they had mastered to do business and get rich.

They thought it was too simple, and they didn't see how smart, wise and hardworking the people of the Ming Dynasty were. The European style was simply not feasible in the Ming Dynasty.

By the future, the gap with the Ming people will only grow bigger and bigger, so big that it makes people desperate.

"In addition to military, politics, economy, and education, the Ming people are also leading the world in infrastructure~"

"Whether in Europe, the Middle East, or the Ottoman Empire, the Persian Empire, etc., everyone basically relies on walking and riding horses when traveling."

"But the Ming Empire is completely different. Even in An Ning City in front of you, you can see these well-connected concrete roads and bridges."

"The road traffic is extremely convenient. You can also see a large number of four-wheeled carriages, bicycles, ox carriages, etc., but these are nothing."

"What is really amazing is the trains and railways that are vigorously developing in the Ming Empire."

"The train driven by steam can travel thousands of miles a day, and once the railway from Nanyun Province to the west of the Ming Dynasty, which is the east coast of the Black Sea, to Daming, is fully completed."

"At that time, they can only take dozens of days to reach these tens of thousands of miles of road. Moreover, this train is very comfortable to ride. You can't even feel any bumps on it. It's smooth to pour a glass of water."

"The Ming Empire is vigorously building such a train and railway. They even proposed to build a bridge across the Yangtze River. This Yangtze River is a super big river that is lined up in the world. In the world, only the Ming people actually wanted to invest tens of millions of taels of silver to build such a bridge."

"The Ming people were vigorously building railways, highways, ports, bridges, embankments, reservoirs, excavation of canals, etc. The funds invested in infrastructure every year were calculated using billions of silver."

"You can imagine that when these are basically completed and the network is formed, the Ming Empire will have a wide range of transportation, while in other parts of the world, people are still the same. They will walk when going out, and only a few people can ride horses. What a big gap!"

Although Brown had never been to the Ming Dynasty and had never taken a train, when he saw these well-connected cement roads and planned spacious steam roads and streets, he could imagine how powerful the infrastructure in the Ming Dynasty was in the Ming Dynasty.

He lamented that the Ming Dynasty was leading the world in an all-round way, and also lamented the wealth of this huge empire.
