At the edge of the crocodile beach, you can see a pile of bones.
Of the nearly 2,500 Chinese laborers, how many survived?
1821 people!
Almost one-third of the Chinese workers died in the mines. This was the fate of the Chinese workers.
No matter where they are, the treatment of Chinese workers is comparable to that of black slaves. They are subjected to all kinds of inhuman treatment everywhere. Among those who were persecuted to death, 70% of Chinese slaves died before completing their 8-year contract.
At this time, facing the pile of bones beside the crocodile beach, Zhu Xianhai's eyes burst with anger.
"Kill all the remaining white skins!"
Without any hesitation, Zhu Xianhai said directly.
"Leave no one behind!"
They also captured a dozen people alive in the mine. With this order, their fate can be imagined.
Just follow the way they treat Chinese workers - throw them into the crocodile beach and feed them to the crocodiles.
What is justice? Of course, it is to treat the other person with his own way. This is the greatest justice in the world.
…
As the sun set, the "Annis" finally sailed out of the river mouth. Almost the moment it sailed into the sea, Zhu Xianhai finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Success!
Once you reach the sea, the sea and the sky are vast for birds to fly.
No more thinking about the Brazilian’s counterattack!
"Okay, Captain Luke, let's sail at full speed!"
Zhu Xianhai breathed a sigh of relief and said.
"Sir, what is our destination?"
"Bie Dema!"
Zhu Xianhai named a place.
"Biedema?"
Captain Luke didn't react for a moment.
"Yes, it's the Rio Negro south of Buenos Aires."
At this time, Zhu Xianhai seemed extremely relaxed. The most difficult moment had passed. As long as the ship arrived at Viedma, everything would be over.
Viedma is in the southernmost part of Argentina. In fact, it is the southernmost part of Buenos Aires Province. It is also the place that Elizabeth chose for him on the map that night. Argentina in this era is not the Argentina of later generations. It is vast.
The Pampas and the Patagonian Plateau are both unclaimed lands. To be precise, they are the last unclaimed lands on the American continent in this era. Thanks to the Mapuche people
Tenacious, until now, the Argentines have not conquered those areas, and the current official territory of Argentina is not even one-third of what it was in later generations.
There was vast land to settle the liberated Chinese laborers and slaves.
"By the time we get there, this voyage will almost be over."
Zhu Xianhai smiled at the captain and said.
"I'm going to the cabin to rest for a while."
When leaving the bridge, there were people everywhere outside the cabin. Now, every place on the "Annis" that could fit people was crowded with people. Everyone in the cabin and on the deck could only barely sit, and even
Even to eat, they can only use a zipline to slide the rice bucket over their heads.
However, compared to the mine, this environment is still much better. At least they no longer need to worry about the supervisor's whip, and they no longer have scars from the whip on their bodies.
Everything is fine!
After returning to the cabin, as soon as he lay down on the bed, he felt a little sleepy as soon as he relaxed, but before falling asleep, Zhu Xianhai still summoned the system again.
"system."
As soon as the system was opened, I saw the rewards given by the system.
[Avoid potential life risks and save others, the experience value will be increased by 500. 1536 slaves will be obtained, and the assets will be increased...]
Oops!
Slaves are actually assets!
"It's actually worth, tens, hundreds, thousands... It's actually worth more than 1 million pesos. Doesn't this mean that I'm... Well, cough, cough, you double-standard dog."
Zhu Xianhai pretended to be civilized and coughed. This system is too double-standard. To rescue others is to rescue, but on the other hand, slaves are treated as his assets. It is really double-standard.
But such a double standard...well, it is a machine!
[In view of the fact that the host successfully used the simulator to avoid six life-and-death crises and was willing to sacrifice himself for him, the life simulator was officially upgraded to life simulator version 2.0, and the upgrade began...]
[update completed!]
…
This thing has actually been upgraded!
Opening his eyes, although he was full of doubts, Zhu Xianhai was more curious about what new functions the upgraded simulator would have. After all, the living environment in this era is really harsh.
Neither a city like Buenos Aires nor the wilderness of Brazil gave him a sense of security.
The simulator...this is a life-saving thing!
The most urgent task is to simulate it.
After all, what follows is a brand new journey!
…
[User Notice: Life Simulator version 2.0 no longer limits the number of times, and cancels the free simulation function. Each simulation will deduct corresponding experience points based on the length of the simulation. The experience points are linked to the user's funds. It has a wide range of uses, so please use it with caution. In addition, the system
After the upgrade, the user’s remaining free times will be retained. The current free times are: 4]
This... the public chapter has become paid!
In an instant, Zhu Xianhai was dumbfounded. Although he was a little confused, the upgraded system benefits still made him talk to himself.
"In this case, it's not bad!"
The "Life Mall" that originally required a simulation to be opened has now been "lit up" and turned into a system benefit. Even with the life simulation, you can also choose a simplified version.
This actually made Zhu Xianhai let out a long sigh of relief.
In the previous life simulations, the simulation was clearly a "life experience". Who has ever tried to have diarrhea for five or six days in a row?
If it were not for his medical and chemical knowledge, Zhu Xianhai, who was infected with dysentery, would probably have died of diarrhea in the Amazon rainforest.
It's better not to have that kind of experience.
[Wish you a happy use]
Following the system reminder, Zhu Xianhai's extremely familiar interface once again appeared on the virtual light screen. In addition to the choice of "Whether to perform life simulation", the icon of "Life Mall" has been lit.
Although I am curious about what products are available in the "Life Mall", the most important thing right now is probably to simulate the next stage of life.
"A life simulation?"
"yes."
After making the selection, the simulator started. Soon, some text appeared in front of his eyes.
…
[On November 19, 1860, the "Annis" arrived in Viedma, and after rendezvous with Elizabeth, continued to travel upstream, and finally anchored 150 kilometers away from the mouth of the river.]
[On November 20, you landed on the right bank of the Negro River and established the immigrant village "Nanhua" with an initial population of 3,372 people (including 1,536 slaves)...]
[In April 1861, Nanhua had its first big harvest, with 73,856 acres of land reclaimed.]
…
Outside Nanhua Town, beside the newly dug water diversion channel, Zhu Xianhai looked at the endless fields and said proudly.
"After this year's cotton harvest, we will definitely be able to sell it at a good price."
This is inevitable. After all, the Civil War is about to break out. The export of raw cotton from the United States has almost stagnated, leaving many cotton textile mills in the United Kingdom and European countries without cotton to spin. The price of cotton in European countries has skyrocketed. In
In the next few years, cotton cultivation will definitely be the most profitable industry.
As for food, just enough to eat is enough. Besides, there is such a vast grassland here, just raise cattle and eat meat!
Just as he finished speaking, there was a sound like rolling thunder in the distance coming closer, and a billowing cloud of smoke and dust was seen coming from the western sky.
