The merchant ship full of Ming Dynasty immigrants had arrived at the Chao Phraya River, which is the Chao Phraya River in Siam, and entered the Pak Pang Port at the mouth of the river.

As soon as the ship approached the port, the Ming immigrants on the ship looked at the strange land with anticipation. Of course, when they saw the wood transporting elephant on the dock, they naturally shouted in surprise.

The immigrants on the boat spoke Chaozhou dialect, Cantonese dialect, Hakka dialect... and on the pier, there were also people shouting, shouting, and shouting the names of their relatives in various dialects.

In the past decade, more and more Ming people have come to Siam. Every day, Ming ships have entered and exited various ports of Siam. Siam has also made a lot of profits in trade with the Ming Dynasty, especially in rice trade. Although the rice yield at the estuary is increasing, it is still impossible to compare with Siam. In fact, a considerable part of the "South Ocean rice" comes from Siam. The reason for this is that God has "glorious favor" to Siam, which not only allows them to have a flat and vast plain, but also has dense river channels and abundant water resources on the plain source. Such an environment is naturally favorable for agricultural development.

Not only that, the Ayutah dynasty, which ruled Siam at this time, was the first country in Asia to open its doors to the Westerners. It had even signed a bunch of treaties with Western countries, and even Westerners acted as ministers in the royal court. Not only that, they also obtained a lot of foreign guns and cannons through trade with Westerners. However, even so, this country never thought of building a powerful navy.

In fact, this is not a reason why the Siamese people have no vision, because they don’t need it. Although Siamese is still fighting with the Burmese in the north, it is generally in a period of relatively peaceful history, and they don’t need a navy at all.

However, because the war with neighboring Myanmar has lasted for hundreds of years and is often beaten to death, at the end of the last century, more than 100,000 males were plundered as slaves during the five major invasions in Myanmar. Even now, the two countries continue to attack in the north. Therefore, the population of Siam has always been small, which also gives them enough land to grant to nobles and civilians.

The Sacdina system implemented by Siam, according to this system, the lowest-ranking slaves can also receive 5 lesbians, which is almost 12 acres of land! And the civilians have as many as 25 lesbians, which is only 60 acres of land!

And this is not a grant of land by a household, but a grant of land by a commoner!

And no matter men and women!

In Siam, where there are few people and many places, talent is the most important means of production!

Therefore, the lords must firmly grasp people. In Siam, under the field-giving system, there are no free people. All civilians need to register with the lord of the land, and then collect portions of land to farm, and bear corresponding taxes and military service. The male person is recruited as a recruit at the age of 18 and serves as a new soldier for two years until he retires at the age of 60. When there is no war, the active soldier must serve for 6 months a year, cultivate the land for the lord, and also brings his own food. The land they receive cannot be bought and sold, and the old and unable to farm must be returned to the lord.

Therefore, the civilians in Siam were actually equivalent to serfs, and the handicraftsmen were directly slaves. As for merchants, most of them were foreign immigrants, mainly Ming people, at least Indians, Japanese, Annans and Westerners, but the number was not large.

Due to various reasons such as war, Siam not only has few people, but also has a long-term serious imbalance in the ratio of men and women. There are more women and fewer men in China, so they have always welcomed foreigners, especially adult male immigrants. Immigration is also regarded as "civilians". They can even enjoy "super national treatment" and only need to pay taxes, do not need to bear military service or serve six months of labor every year. This is also the reason why immigrants can do business.

Have freedom!

So now, in Siam, except for princes and nobles, the richest people are basically foreign immigrants and their descendants. Among them, the Ming people are the most important. Because there are many women in Siam than men, many of them have come here in the past century. Many of them are paupers who cannot marry their wives in the Ming Dynasty, betrayal coolies and come to Siam on a merchant ship, and then settle here.

They not only get married in Siam, but also get a property of Siam. There are no distinction between men and women. Women also have 25 laces, which are 60 acres of land. Moreover, the women here have a fine tradition of hard work and hard work, which is completely different from men. Because men need to serve in the military and work for a long time, they mainly rely on women in farming.

Therefore, there are many girls and boys, so men have always been very popular. Even those new immigrants who are empty-handed can easily marry a local woman with some industry and hard work as their wife. Then his life has undergone earth-shaking changes. A Siamese wife is not only equal to 60 acres of fertile land, but also includes houses and farm tools. Of course, more importantly, she can also pass on the family line. In short, immigrants here can easily gain a foothold and become rich.

So for the Ming immigrants who came here from afar, Siam was definitely the most ideal place to go at this time, not one of them!

Even places like Hekou City, Nantianmen and Tang Kingdom are not as good as those here. After all, women, houses, and sixty acres of mature land, are definitely not comparable to those of the wastelands covered with forests in other places. And sometimes, they are not even one woman, but a few!

After all, Siamese men have to serve in the military and 6 months of corvee every year. In addition, frequent wars, long-term military service and wars have led to strict imbalance in the ratio of men and women in various places; while women stay at home, they naturally have many opportunities to contact Ming men who do not need to serve. Collusion between you and my heart is also very common, and women are often proactive. A Ming man without four or five lovers is embarrassed to go out to say hello. Moreover, it is still a village.

Even until now, even though the Ming Dynasty expanded rapidly in Nanyang, not only did Chameng become a county of the Ming Dynasty, but even Zhenla, the Ming Dynasty signed a "Sectarian Treaty" to put itself in the protection of the Ming Dynasty and opened its national gates to the Ming Dynasty. Even on the South Gate, the Ming Dynasty's sphere of influence was almost bordered by Siam, but Siam never felt the threat and continued to welcome the arrival of the Ming Dynasty immigrants with joy.

Why?

Because the Ming Dynasty immigrants not only brought Siam's urgently needed population, but also advanced agricultural technology, the land yields cultivated by immigrants are far higher than those of the Siams. The increase in rice production means that Siam can export more rice. Now Siam exports millions of stones of rice every year, which is worth millions of taels of silver.

Ships of rice have been exchanged for ships of luxury goods from the Ming Dynasty, allowing the upper class of Siam to enjoy a luxurious life. Now, whether it is King Barçathon or the lord below, how can it be possible to give up huge rice trading income and a good life?

It is also because of this that the relationship between Siam and the Ming Dynasty immigrants was not affected by the expansion of the Ming Dynasty, but even became more harmonious.

Let me add that the novel app I am using recently, [app], supports Android and Apple phones!

And such a relationship will continue for a long time.

Even if Champa gave the country to the Ming Dynasty, the Mo family in Annan also gave the country, Zhenla Kingdom became a vassal of the Ming Dynasty, and the large plains in the east became the territory of the Ming Dynasty immigrants, which did not make the monarchs and ministers in Ayutthaya City feel any fear.

After all, this is Siam!

Siam was also a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty!

Not only that, when Emperor Gansheng celebrated his birthday, Siam, who had always been keen on tribute, not only sent envoys, but also received the high praise of Emperor Zhu as "a good friend of the people of the Ming Dynasty"!

This evaluation simply brought Siam to heaven and made the Siam envoy proud.

Actually, this is really not an exaggeration.

If there are so many vassal states like Siam that immigrate to the Ming Dynasty (of course not limited to the Ming Dynasty) that have super-national treatment, if they are not good friends, who else are good friends?

"Oh, I finally got to the place. This is our man's paradise!"

When the springboard was lowered on the boat, the men on the boat laughed and even looked at the Siamese women on the dock with meaningful eyes. Looking at their slim figures, they even laughed.
