George's new lady, Serena, became a temporary resident and came to Ceuta just a month ago.
Just like many temporary residents when they first applied for a temporary residence permit, even though they were wearing Tang Dynasty costumes, their every move still had a strong aboriginal flavor. Serena now couldn't even speak Tang dialect.
If he hadn't seen that this woman was quite diligent and efficient in her work and could also cook Tang cuisine, he wouldn't have hired such a person.
No matter how beautiful she is, he won't want it.
With George's current status, it would be very easy for him to find a beautiful temporary resident maid.
If George goes to Cadiz and other indigenous-controlled areas, as long as he is willing, he can find dozens of beautiful young maids at the same time, short, tall, fat, thin, convex and concave, whatever he wants.
It's just like spending a little money, not even money, and there are a lot of women who are willing to stutter.
It just doesn't make much sense and is not decent at all.
In Ceuta, the real decent gentry of the Tang Dynasty would never hire barbarians to serve as maids or attendants.
If they can't afford to lose face, they will only hire temporary residents.
It would be even better if he could hire people from Tang Dynasty to serve him.
Unfortunately, generally only the dignitaries of the Tang Dynasty can do it.
This is because Tang people in overseas territories would not do these things. In the past, when they were in the mainland, these Tang people might not even have enough to eat. But when they go overseas, if they go to work, they usually choose to do some more respectable jobs.
As for serving people, they basically don't know how to do it.
Because even if they are illiterate and cannot find a job, they can still farm. As long as they are willing, they can easily receive dozens, hundreds or even hundreds of acres of land for free, and the government will also provide various farming tools.
In other words, no matter how bad their lives are, they still have a way out, and that is to become a small farmer.
If you want to hire a Tang Dynasty person to serve people in Ceuta, in addition to being given positions such as stewards and housekeepers, the salary is also terrifyingly high, and this alone is not enough.
As mentioned before, no matter how bad the Tang Dynasty people came to Ceuta, there was always a small farmer to help them. Many Tang Dynasty people had temporary residents, maids, servants or even housekeepers in their own homes. It was like asking him to come over and act as a servant for you, in broad daylight.
What are you dreaming about?
Of course, the top dignitaries are the exception!
People of the Tang Dynasty lived completely different lives in their own country and in some overseas areas, especially places like Ceuta.
How should I put it? Many immigrants from the Tang Dynasty who are now prosperous in Ceuta were just useless people in their hometown before. They were illiterate and had no merit. They were despised and disliked in their hometown. Under the humiliation, they could not bear the humiliation.
He only immigrated to Ceuta, but after arriving in Ceuta, it was a huge turning point in his fate. A large number of women fell in love with him...
Those European indigenous nobles, wealthy businessmen, and decent temporary residents will give you a lot of dowries and beg you to marry their daughters!
Because after a foreign woman marries a Tang Dynasty citizen, she can officially become a Tang Dynasty citizen after a few years, and she can also apply for temporary residence permits for her immediate family members!
After a female temporary resident marries a Tang Dynasty citizen, she can usually directly apply for naturalization as a Tang Dynasty citizen.
At the same time, after the woman is successfully naturalized, she can also apply for naturalization for her parents, brothers and sisters. Of course, this approach is very difficult, and the probability of passing it is very low.
However, this is already one of the easiest ways for foreigners to obtain Tang household registration.
There are some blond and blue-eyed Tang people in the Tang Dynasty these days. Well, the Tang people with Tang household registration are not just temporary residents.
There are only three sources of these people.
One is to be naturalized for meritorious service, and is naturalized after making great contributions to the Tang Dynasty. The most typical one is the Viscount Gerdes of the Tang Dynasty. There are others, many of them in small numbers, mainly focusing on serving the Tang Dynasty officials all year round.
A group of experienced temporary residents, such as several teachers in Elizabeth, were naturalized after serving for many years.
The second channel is marriage. After a foreign woman marries a Tang man, she can become a naturalized citizen along with her husband.
The third channel is the naturalization of direct relatives. Initially, this channel was prepared for those foreign Tang people who had made great achievements in naturalization. After all, after naturalizing, he could not leave his parents, wife, and children aside, so the regulations were large.
Immediate relatives of Tang people can apply for naturalization, limited to parents, quotas, children, etc.
But this third channel was taken advantage of. Many foreign women who married into the Tang Dynasty also used this channel to apply for the Tang household registration for their parents.
Usually, you apply for temporary resident status for your parents first, and then apply for Datang household registration for your parents a few years later.
This isn't over yet.
After their parents are naturalized, their parents will also use this article to apply for temporary residence certificates for their other children, and finally apply for naturalization.
After their children are naturalized, they can apply for naturalization for their spouses and children.
Spouses in turn can apply for naturalization for their parents…
In the end, the whole family can often be successfully naturalized through this law.
The Tang Dynasty officials themselves noticed this loophole, but did not close it. How should I put it? The Tang Dynasty prioritized filial piety. You can't let your parents starve and suffer poverty in their hometown. It's also impossible for the parents to come over and leave the children behind.
Come on.
However, on the surface, it did not close the loopholes. Secretly, Datang came up with a more direct and straightforward method to improve the application conditions. It not only improved the basic conditions, but also various undisclosed conditions, and directly limited the annual naturalization quota.
In the thirty-nine years of Xuanping, the number of naturalization quotas given by the Ministry of Household Affairs of the Tang Dynasty was only 1,000 people, of which more than 500 were reserved...
Globally, at least hundreds of thousands of people are vying for the remaining 400 spots.
However, although naturalization is difficult, it is still relatively easy to apply for a temporary residence permit for relatives as long as you marry a Tang Dynasty person.
This alone is enough for countless indigenous women to directly knock down the singles of the Tang Dynasty.
Therefore, the Tang Dynasty household registration book is still very valuable these days.
Of course, the premise is that you dare to marry an indigenous daughter!
Now that we are in overseas territories, if you do whatever you want, you are still a respectable person.
It's easy to have some exotic sex, just wave your hand and a lot of foreign women will rush towards you.
But why do you want to marry home?
Isn't this stupid?
If you really get married, I'm afraid the entire Tang Dynasty in Ceuta will treat you as a joke!
Ceuta has been a state for many years, and many immigrants from the Tang Dynasty have come here. They have a lot of foreign women around them, but the Tang Dynasty dares to actually marry a foreign woman and write the name of a foreign woman in his household registration book.
There are only a handful of men.
They are all a bunch of scumbags who dare to do things, love but not marry!
From all of this, it can be seen that the Tang people in some overseas territories are actually very special, especially in relatively special overseas territories like Ceuta.
Relatively speaking, there are not so many troubles in the Americas.
Although North America has been unable to be localized for a long time, because there are no indigenous people there at all, only people from the Tang Dynasty, so except for the lack of industry, other aspects are actually not much different from local life.
At least, if you are looking for a sense of superiority, you will definitely not find it.
But Ceuta is different!
Because this overseas territory is close to Europe, it is also a prosperous trading port city with a large number of temporary residents, so the Tang Dynasty here is different from the Tang Dynasty people in other places.
In Ceuta, due to various peculiarities, it was difficult for George to hire a satisfactory maid.
Especially experienced attendants or maids who are proficient in various living habits of the Tang Dynasty. Such people are hot commodities.
Not to mention him, many Tang people in Ceuta had a hard time finding such attendants or maids, and they were usually hired by the real dignitaries.
In Ceuta, a senior maid with rich experience and the ability to provide housework services to respectable gentry has a monthly salary of at least five yuan, a head maid's salary starts from ten yuan, and a housekeeper's salary is even higher.
Although this Serena is a little worse now, there is no other better choice. She can only learn a few things, at least not like this morning. The master got up and prepared to wash up, but she still
sleeping……
Thinking of this, George, who was sitting in the carriage, frowned. When he returned from work in the evening, he would give her a good education.
You need to let her know that if you want to be a decent gentleman's maid, you definitely don't have to look prettier, wear less clothes, and scream louder.
