Valley Emperor
Vol 2 Chapter 1949: fair ceuta
With this farm, I will go back and plant crops, such as long-staple cotton, and the future will be better. I will try to replace it with loans from my uncle and brother as soon as possible, so that this piece of land can truly belong to me.
When John hoped to be a farmer in the desolation of Egypt.
His older brother George, in the early morning, before the sky was completely bright, walked out of the door of the newly rented apartment in a decent fine-fleece professional attire, and sat down at the door of his apartment. After waiting for a rental carriage, they headed towards the European Hotel.
Today, the European Hotel will usher in a grand event. As one of the many managers in the hotel, he must arrive at the hotel ahead of time, and for this reason, he has also booked a rental carriage in advance.
In fact, if you live directly in the dormitory in the hotel, you don't need to be so troublesome.
But he is no longer the lowest-level consultant, but a consultant manager under the Lobby Department. He is also the only temporary resident among more than ten middle-level managers in European hotels.
He managed to get up after a long time. Naturally, he needs to pay attention to his status at all times. His daily life is all about getting closer to the real people of the Tang Dynasty.
Only those who have truly experienced poverty know the rare and hard-won happiness.
George's childhood and adolescence were very typical difficulties. This kind of difficulty is not only unsatisfactory in life, but difficult to even survive.
It was not until he came into contact with Datang people and obtained a temporary residence permit through hard work that he became a Datang person, his life improved.
In the few years he came to Ceuta, what made him feel the most was not the prosperity of Ceuta, but the fairness and freedom unique to the Tang Dynasty.
First of all, there are no serfs here, let alone slaves. Everyone is a free citizen.
This was unimaginable in medieval Europe and in other parts of the world.
What's more important is fairness.
Although Ceuta is only an overseas territory of Datang, it still reflects the unique justice of Datang everywhere.
Everyone can go to school and study, and everyone can participate in the imperial examination as long as you have enough ability, let alone compete for other jobs.
This is almost unthinkable in contemporary Europe.
Because in contemporary Europe, there is no systematic civil service system at all, and all middle and high-level military administrative positions are all aristocrats.
But in Datang, even if you were born in poverty, as long as you have enough talent, you can enter the upper class and realize your life value.
The whole Tang Dynasty was like this, and Ceuta was no exception.
Although George was only a temporary resident, he still deeply felt this fairness.
He used to be just a child from a poor kiln. When he was in Cadiz, he also worked very hard, even desperately, but he still couldn't even get enough to eat.
But after becoming a temporary resident of Datang, after his hard work, he reaps the rewards. He successfully found a job, passed the primary school clerical job at night school, and became a guest of Ceuta Europe Hotel. .
However, he still didn't stop studying. If it wasn't for the fact that Ceuta didn't have a night school, he would probably have gone to the middle school in the night school.
It is a pity that Ceuta is only an overseas territory of Datang. Even though this is the largest and most prosperous overseas territory of Datang in Europe, it is still only an overseas territory.
According to the laws and regulations of the Tang Dynasty, the education system in overseas territories was limited to primary education.
Of course, immigrants from overseas territories don't have to worry about their children not being able to go to middle school or even university.
Because they can directly apply for the local middle school, the Datang Empire directly connects with the local state high schools according to the number of overseas territories, etc., to ensure that the students in the overseas territories can report and attend middle schools smoothly.
In Ceuta, like all overseas territories in Europe, immigrant students will take entrance exams after graduating from primary school, and the winners will be admitted to South African secondary schools.
South Africa is also a localized area. Although it is only partially localized, it is also localized. Therefore, it is possible to set up secondary schools and build factories. Otherwise, the South African Gold Mine Railway cannot be repaired, and the local gold mines Can't dig it out.
However, for the subsequent preparatory courses and universities, you can only study in East Asia.
Because there are not many preparatory courses and universities in the entire empire, there is no need to count on some overseas locals.
In order to ensure that the immigrants have no worries, when their children return to the mainland for the first time, even the boat tickets are reimbursed in full. Although this cost is not small, in order to maintain the centripetal force of the immigrants, Datang is still willing to pay the cost.
However, Datang has adopted an elite education system since middle school. Whether it is immigrants or local people, very few people can go to middle school, so the number of people is not very large.
Although George can't continue to study night school, he still maintains the state of reading and learning all the year round.
In this way, apart from his appearance, in other aspects, he is no different from the people of the Tang Dynasty.
Even exaggerating to say ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ George is more like a Tang person than a real Tang person.
With the standard Jinling accent, he can speak fluently. He can also play Go and keep a folding fan. He knows all kinds of fashion trends in the south of the Yangtze River, including Songjiang.
In fact, if he hadn't studied so hard, he wouldn't have been promoted to a manager.
Limited by academic qualifications and other factors, it is very difficult for a temporary resident to become a middle and senior management in a place like a European hotel.
The contemporaries at the same level as him are all true Tang people with yellow skin and black eyes, and he is the only one with blue eyes and blond hair.
It is precisely because of this difficulty and knowing his particularity that George cherishes the status quo even more.
He considers others in the Tang Dynasty in an all-round way, and lives more like a Tang person than a person from the Tang Dynasty.
In addition, now that he is also a mid-level management, he naturally needs to maintain a decent appearance like other management.
I can't live in the dormitory like I used to.
Because most of the Datang colleagues at the same level as him lived outside, no real Datang employees lived in the internal dormitory of the European Hotel.
So even if he was a little reluctant, he still rented an apartment in a high-end community close to the hotel on the second day of his promotion. The monthly rent was four Tang Yuan.
It also changed into fine woolen professional clothes, and the food and drink expenses were all closer to the decent gentlemen.
He even hired a young maid to take care of his daily life. The maid was an Austrian. Although she was very beautiful, George was not very satisfied.
