Hearing that someone wanted to talk about the Black Earth Province, and then looking at the dozens of students around him who were all looking over, Chen Peter thought for a while and said: "Our Black Earth Province has only been included in the Ming Dynasty for a short time. At present,
The development is far inferior to other provinces."
"So no matter in that aspect, Black Earth Province is currently far behind the rest of the Ming Dynasty."
“But there are also some things unique to Black Earth Province here in Black Earth Province.”
"Our Black Earth Province has the most fertile, vast, flat and open land. Our Black Earth Province has a large area of black soil, which is extremely fertile."
"If you travel to the Black Earth Province, you can see endless fertile fields on both sides of the road. In autumn, they will turn into a golden ocean. When a breeze blows, waves will appear.
Golden waves of wheat."
"But in winter, our Black Earth Province's winter is very cold, and summer is not as hot as here in the capital. Summer is relatively cool."
Peter Chen didn't know what to say either.
Among the local Slavs in the Black Earth Province, most of the nobles who could represent them have been wiped out. The remaining serfs are not representative at all, and they don't even know their own history, culture, etc.
So I can only talk about the land and climate of Black Earth Province.
"Brother Chen, I heard that European cities are very dirty and chaotic. Is this true?"
After hearing Peter Chen's words, someone also asked quickly.
"Well...it's true. Compared with our cities in the Ming Dynasty, European cities are very dirty, unplanned, and the roads are also very narrow. The key is that they are basically dirt roads. Even on sunny days,
Well, when it rains, the roads are very muddy."
"Moreover, European cities do not have sewage systems and running water, so the cities are very dirty and messy. People in many cities even dump all kinds of dirty things directly on the streets."
Chen Peter nodded and said, here I am also trying to distance myself from the relationship with European cities. I am from the Ming Dynasty.
"Don't say it's really like this~"
"I have several European slaves at home, and I also want to know some things about Europe with them. European cities are really too dirty and messy. Even the castles of nobles are very dirty and messy. There are no
The method is comparable to the manor of our Ming people."
"Yes, yes, I have a concubine who is also a European. She also talked about the problem of European cities. After all, they are barbarian lands, and they cannot be compared with our Ming Dynasty."
"Europe is pretty good, at least it still has decent cities and civilization, but Africa is even worse. Almost everything in Africa is still in the primitive tribal stage, and there are not even decent towns, let alone cities.
"
"You are talking about the Kunlun slaves. It is said that Egypt in the north of Africa is still good."
"North Africa belongs to the Arab world, which is different from Africa. Those Kunlun slaves in Africa are really bad. They are all still in the tribal stage. They don't even have clothes or shoes, and they don't know how to make cloth."
"real or fake?"
"Is there any student from Africa who can tell you something?"
"Yes, yes, Brother Li Dongming came from an African vassal country, but it seems he went to watch a football match."
"Only our Ming Dynasty is the most civilized, prosperous and prosperous in the world. Most places in the world are barbarian lands. Not only do they not have a decent civilization, but many places do not even have their own writing.
."
"Yes, yes~"
Many students continued to discuss this issue. When it came to this issue, every one of them held their heads high and felt proud to be Ming people.
This is not full of pride and self-confidence, but a conclusion that the Ming people came to after colonizing and trading all over the world and seeing the situation around the world.
Many of the students present here have slaves, concubines, and the like from all over the world in their homes, and they are quite familiar with the situation around the world.
Many people have even gone to many places to study and see the world outside the Ming Dynasty. When they look at the Ming Dynasty, they will naturally have such a sense of pride.
"It's so hot, it's so hot~"
"Man, man~"
Everyone was chatting, chatting, and feeling very hot while chatting. The summer in the capital was very hot, and some people also shouted to the hotel clerk.
"Sir, what are your orders?"
When the clerk heard this, he quickly came over and asked.
"Does your hotel have electric fans?"
"Hurry up and bring some electric fans over. We're all too hot. Also, if you have any iced watermelon, bring some over and I'll charge it to my account."
The speaker was a student named Huo Ling. He was a native of the capital. Now he goes to the hotel every day when he has nothing to do. He specializes in building relationships with other students. He knows a lot of people. It is said that he has already arrived in the capital.
He already knows more than half of the students rushing to take exams.
“Iced watermelon is available~”
"I don't know if this electric fan has been ordered yet. I'll go check it out for you, sir. If so, I'll arrange it for you right away."
When the clerk heard this, he quickly replied.
"Okay, hurry up and make arrangements."
Huo Ling waved his hand and said.
"Brother Huo, what is this electric fan?"
When the others heard this, they immediately asked curiously.
The electric fan is a new thing. It has only been launched for a few days. There are still very few people using it here in the capital. As for the students from all over the world, this is the first time they have heard of this electric fan.
fan.
"Everyone should know about this electric lamp, right?"
Huo Ling looked at the curious eyes around him, smiled and asked.
"Hmm~"
"I've heard about it and read about it in the newspaper, but I haven't seen it yet."
Zeng Ziying, Sun Tianjing, Li Xiangdong, Yun Tiantian and others said.
"Brother Zeng, Brother Sun, Brother Li, Brother Yun, and Brother Chen, you just arrived in the capital today, so you don't know yet. You will know by night. The Royal Hotel has already installed electric lights. By night
Then you can turn on the lights.”
"This electric light is nothing unusual."
"This electric fan is also a new product launched by Daming Electric Co., Ltd. It starts spinning as soon as it is plugged in and can blow out a steady stream of air. It is very magical."
"When this thing was just released a few days ago, very few people had seen it. I happened to have a few electric fans in my house, so I knew about this thing."
Huo Ling explained to everyone. At this time, the hotel clerk who had just left was sweating profusely and came over with two electric fans and said: "Young master, you are really amazing. You actually know that our hotel just purchased electric fans today.
"
As he spoke, he quickly put the electric fan aside, then took a special socket and plugged it in. As soon as the switch was turned on, the electric fan immediately began to continuously send cool air.
When many students saw it, they couldn't help being surprised, and they all looked at the electric fan.
"Oh, this is really magical. It can turn and blow the wind by itself."
"With this electric fan, this hot summer will be much more comfortable."
"Isn't it? This is amazing."
"As expected of the capital city of the Ming Dynasty, it not only has magical things like electric lights, but also the invention of electric fans. It is really incredible."
"It's amazing, what drives it?"
"This is driven by electricity. Just like a light bulb, it can rotate only when there is electricity. Currently, only our Ming capital city has electricity and can use this electric fan."
"But I heard that Daming Electrical Company has opened branches in major cities in Daming, and will gradually deliver electricity to every city. From now on, everyone will be able to use this electric lamp and electric fan."
"That's great. Where we are in Nanyang, it's very hot all year round. It would be so comfortable if we had this electric fan."
"Isn't that right? I've been living very uncomfortable these days. I have to have my book boy fan me when I go to bed at night. Now that I have this electric fan, I feel much more comfortable."
Everyone continued to discuss around the electric fan. The capital of the Ming Dynasty was not only bustling and bustling, but also a steady stream of new things appeared first.
Electric lights, electric fans, I don’t know what kind of things will appear in the future.
Peter Chen's eyes were looking straight.
Peter Chen, who grew up in Heitu Province, had his eyes opened when he came to the capital. He saw so many new things along the way that he had never seen before.
The train had already surprised him, and now there were electric lights and electric fans here in the capital. It was really strange, fresh, and dazzling, and he was amazed by it.
Now I finally understand why people in the Ming Dynasty look down on people in other parts of the world. Compared with the Ming Dynasty, the rest of the world doesn't even understand electricity, let alone electric lights and electric fans.
"Here comes the iced watermelon~"
At this time, several waiters came over with plates of ice-cold watermelons. There were ice cubes next to these cut watermelons, giving off the slightest bit of chill.
"Can there still be ice in this summer?"
When many people saw it, they were immediately dumbfounded and seemed unbelievable.
