Chapter 286: Turn Britain into India! (below)


Chapter 57: Let’s turn Britain into India Autumn 1348, Kingdom of England, suburbs of London As the alluvial plain of the lower reaches of the Thames River, it was already a fairly developed farming area long before the Roman Empire.

It was rich in succulent pasture and was suitable for raising horses, so animal husbandry was also prosperous. yznnAfter the formation of the Kingdom of England, the London Plain, the richest and most developed area on the island, has been the core of the rule of successive kings, and is dotted with pastures and farms under the name of the Plantagenet royal family.

However, in this dark summer, with the rapid spread of the horrific Black Death and a series of other unknown plagues, the shepherds and farmers on this land died in droves from the plague.

The plains of London were suddenly strewn with corpses, and there was no smoke in the abandoned villages.

When you walked into those small mud houses or thatched huts, most of the things you could find were just a few corpses that had rotted or been eaten by animals.

Bones can be seen everywhere along the road, and there are too many corpses to bury.

Fruits and wheat can only rot in the ground, while poultry and livestock run all over the ground.

Dead or half-dead people are everywhere.

Occasionally, there are a few living people wandering around like zombies, mumbling.

He used some meaningless words: "Lord, I am guilty", "Lord, please don't rush to call me to your kingdom", "Oh, am I crazy, or is the world crazy?"

Such a desolate, absurd and chaotic scene makes it seem as if human history has ended and the end of the world has arrived.

However, in autumn, some abandoned farms near London actually began to become lively again, and busy figures appeared again in those fields covered with weeds.

Of course, these villages used to live in Most of the serfs have gone to heaven and can no longer let their souls work hard for their lords.

At this time, the farmers working on the plains of London have changed to a completely different group of people.

These new farmers are generally thin and their skin is much darker than that of most people in England, but they are a little worse than the black people in the south.

They were naked from the waist up, with only a loincloth wrapped around their crotches.

They were so tired from the heavy farm work that their backs were arched, and their spines seemed to be made of hemp rope, the kind used to draw water from wells.

The clavicle sticks out high, like a collar worn by a dog.

The whole body is covered with scars.

From the bottom, to the waist, to the buttocks, wherever it touches, there are large and small wounds and scars, just like the whips of time.

The marks carved on them These brown-skinned farmers come from India thousands of miles away, and most of them belong to the lowest class of ancient Indian society.

Under the whips and scoldings of the overseers, the Indian untouchables took hoes, sickles, shovels and other tools to clean the long-abandoned fields and sow seeds of fast-growing crops.

For some reason, these Indians are a little unfamiliar with their farm work, but they are definitely working very hard.

According to the original historical trajectory, these Indians would not appear on British soil on a large scale as colonial subjects until the Victorian Era, five hundred years later.

But here, relying on Doraemon's random door, the Kingdom of England has a large number of Indian subjects five hundred years in advance.

They can rely on them to fill the labor shortage caused by the great plague and save Her Majesty Queen Joan's estate from being abandoned.

Sadly, just a year ago, the monarchs of various European countries were still troubled by the huge pressure of overpopulation.

But at this moment, if these monarchs are not dead yet, they have to worry about how to get new ones.

The subjects came to fill their empty country and were worried.

"Hey, these Indians seem to work very hard, but why are they all so skinny that they are even skinnier than the serfs in the poorest counties in England, and most of them are too poor to wear clothes?

Don't they?

You know shame and are not afraid of the cold?”

Looking at the dark figures busy in the fields, Queen Qiong blinked and asked the "angel" Wang Qiu beside her, "According to legend, India is not a happy land with warm weather all year round, rich in spices, and flowing with honey and milk.

Well, the Indian scenery I saw with my own eyes through that magical door was also so warm, rich and beautiful, but these Indians are living too miserable a time."

For the medieval English people who lived in darkness and cold all year round, India was rumored to produce many good things such as spices, dyed cotton cloth, and gemstones.

It was like spring all year round and would never suffer from frost and snow.

It was definitely a place worth being obsessed with.

A beautiful place, like an imaginary paradise country: Most Europeans in the Middle Ages had the above-mentioned beautiful fantasy about the legendary East.

Queen Joan apparently thinks so too.

When Venetian merchants and travelers went to India to "collect" these immigrants through the random door, the Indian scenery that Her Majesty Queen Joan saw with her own eyes seemed to confirm the above impression: the tropical sun was so bright, and the wind seemed to The fragrant smell of various spices wafts around.

The land on both sides of the Ganges River is so fertile that it can be called a land of fish and rice.

It is full of green rice fields, golden waves of wheat, and countless clear ponds.

The pond is covered with round water lilies, and lazy buffaloes step on the mud beside the pond and chew lotus leaves.

However, the vast majority of ordinary Indians living in such an idyllic and pastoral scenery do not live a happy life.

What a beautiful day like heaven.

In fact, at first glance, most of them seemed to live similar to the serfs in medieval Europe.

They had no clothes on their bodies and no food to eat.

They were so hungry that their eyes turned green and they were half-dead.

A small number of people even seem to have a worse life.

They can't even live in the simplest thatched hut.

The whole family can only sleep on the roadside or under a tree, just like beggars or refugees, but there is rarely a look of sadness on their faces. , it’s hard to understand why they can still laugh so happily.

In addition, there are many weird people who are so poor that they don’t even have clothes to wear.

They don’t think about how to work to make money to buy clothes and support their families.

Instead, they squat against the wall all day long in a strange practice posture, starving themselves.

Until they finally starved to death under the wall, the Indians were in awe of them, saying that they were great ascetics who had the power to communicate with the gods.

However, outsiders looked at it and wondered whether the Indian gods liked their believers to commit suicide.

"There is nothing we can do about it.

India is indeed a rich place.

Even if you just took a look at it from a distance, you should know how splendid and magnificent the Indian temples and palaces are.

But the problem is , No matter where they are, rich and poor, nobles and commoners always live completely different lives.

How rich the products of this land are, and only the upper class can enjoy all the benefits.

The lower class people are the same poor no matter where they are.

This is the case in England, it is the same in India, and it is still the same in China and India.

The wealth and abundance of the place only mean that the monarchs and nobles live a luxurious life, and it has nothing to do with these lower-class people."

Regarding this too naive question, Wang Qiu curled his lips, "If Indians, no matter noble or low, all seem to be living in paradise and are as happy as if they were soaked in honey, how can we get them to England?

Are your estates sowing and cultivating?”

Although human trafficking was not a rare thing in India at this time, due to the shameless raids carried out by the travelers, neither the Kingdom of England, the Venetians, nor the Papal States could produce much money.

Hard currency such as silver and precious metals.

Therefore, most of the Indians appearing in the suburbs of London today were actually deceived.

As for the specific method, let Doraemon appear first and find an Indian village that looks the poorest, dirtiest and most shabby.

Most of them are inhabited by untouchables.

They perform miracles such as "fire rains from the sky" or "day turns into night" in public, which shocks these Indian farmers or untouchables and makes them prostrate themselves to the ground and worship them.

Then he concocted an "oracle" and announced that he would take them to a better place to live, and at the same time used lightning to strike down those village elders who dared to jump out to obstruct and speak against him.

In this case, although some people would panic and flee, but the rest Most of the people who do this will be so frightened that they become helpless and accept their fate.

India is a hierarchical society.

The priests are Brahmins, the military nobles who own large areas of land are Kshatriyas, businessmen and small landowners are classified as Vaishyas, and general laborers such as farmers and craftsmen become Shudras.

Their occupations correspond to their surnames, and are inherited from generation to generation.

Those who farm the land for generations, those who boil sugar for generations, and those who dig excrement for generations.

They have performed their duties for thousands of years.

You will know this just by hearing their names.

What do Indians do?

People of different castes are isolated from each other.

Not only are intermarriage generally prohibited, but even communication with each other is very rare.

The advantage of this is that it eliminates the ability of the lower class Indians to unite and resist collectively, allowing them to rest assured in their lowly status and just hope for a good afterlife.

In addition, there are Dalits, who account for one-seventh of India's population, who are outside this caste hierarchy and are despised as "untouchables".

It was difficult for them to own land and they were destined to engage in professions considered unclean, such as hunters, fishermen, butchers, executioners, gravediggers, undertakers, cobblers, scavengers, etc.

Even if you want to work as a tenant farmer for a landlord, it is very difficult to grow crops.

There are many Sudras in rural India who compete with them for work.

Moreover, untouchables cannot stay in cities and can only live in isolated and remote villages.

They must be very careful to avoid contaminating members of various castes.

In other words, they must not have any physical contact with the latter. , in extreme cases, even cannot enter the sight of the latter.

Therefore, whenever they step out of their homes or villages, they must bang a pair of clappers to warn others that an untouchable is approaching.

In this way, even if the travelers evacuate the entire untouchable village, other Indians may not know anything about it in a short period of time.

Of course, these untouchables may not be very skilled in farm work because they don't farm much, but under the whip and knife of the overseer, I believe they will learn quickly.

However, even if you just take away some lowly and unnoticed Shudras and untouchables, if the movement is too big, it will attract the attention and perhaps a bit of hostility of the Indian princes who rule these lands.

At this time, it was the turn of the powerful Venetian businessman to appear.

While using Doraemon's tiger skin, he casually threatened and frightened these princes, and at the same time presented some Chinese porcelain, silk scarves, glass mirrors, aluminum alloys and Plastic small jewelry Gadgets like these are very valuable in India these days, but are not worth much in the modern world.

So after weighing the pros and cons, the Indian princes who thought that their interests had not suffered much damage all acquiesced to these " The "powerful" people's actions to attract people.

There are even some Indian princes in densely populated areas, in order to relieve the pressure of overpopulation in their territories, they simply take the initiative to escort groups of untouchables as trading goods to exchange with Venetian merchants for more things they want.

Although this place in India It has been warm and humid since ancient times, and has abundant products.

However, due to long-term over-reproduction, population pressure has always been severe.

Moreover, because any job under the caste system is hereditary from generation to generation, People with different occupations are isolated from each other, so that it is difficult to change the surplus population.

For example, in ancient India, families named "gravediggers" could only work as gravediggers from generation to generation, even if there were too many gravediggers, more than 100,000 gravediggers.

Due to market demand, it is difficult for them to switch to fishing or carpentry, because hereditary fishermen and carpenters do not want anyone to compete for their jobs, so simply driving out the excess population is also a way to solve the problem.

So, just like this, there is deception, abduction, and a certain degree of trading and bribery.

If that doesn't work, let those unscrupulous European knights put on armor, wave their swords, and make a guest appearance on the slave-catching team.

They were originally in the war.

Zhongya often does this: if all his serfs are killed and there is no one to farm for him, then he goes to the enemy's territory to snatch some serfs back.

However, going deep into a foreign country to capture slaves is really a very laborious task.

Knight masters going into battle in person are often extremely cost-effective and quite dangerous.

If possible, even the stingiest Venetian merchants would be more willing to spend a little money.

No matter what methods they used to collect supplies from local powerful figures, they finally managed to get tens of thousands of Indian "immigrants" in a short period of time and sent them all to London to farm.

It was the first large-scale import of labor.

"pilot".

At this moment, there was a loud noise not far away, as well as the sound of trumpets and bells.

Wang Qiu looked up and saw that it was a priest and several soldiers holding long guns, driving a group of newly arrived Indians into a small river, forcing them to be baptized collectively and convert to Christianity.

If they refused, they would be beaten immediately.

Violent suppression, if you don't obey, you should be hanged or burned on the rack.

The British these days, unlike their descendants who were deceived by the "multicultural theory", have no advanced concepts of religious freedom.

They only know that heretics and heretics should be put on the fire and roasted alive.

Christians who don't know how to roast heretics and heretics are not good Christians.

On the contrary, there are countless missionaries who are keen to promote the Christian faith and expand the "Lord's flock".

If they can "civilize the barbarians", they can convert them to Christianity. , which is a great merit.

As for whether to preach with a knife or with words, it doesn't matter.

Anyway, after hanging and burning a very few stubborn ones who refused to submit, the remaining Indians naturally converted obediently.

Isn't it just a matter of going down to the river and taking a cold shower?

As for sacrificing your precious life for such a trivial matter?

Even such a slight resistance can only be felt by people of the Shudra caste.

If they are untouchables, it simply doesn't matter.

Anyway, in the original history, because they were not treated as human beings by Hindus, they first worshiped Buddha, then worshiped Allah, and then knelt at the feet of missionaries and believed in Christ.

Some even converted to Judaism and Zoroastrianism because they were excluded.

Outside the Hindu system, the faith of the untouchables in India The concept of worship is similar to that of the Chinese.

They are always changing and worshiping whichever god they feel is more efficacious.

However, no matter how hard they try and change their beliefs, they can never get rid of the despised despise of the untouchables.

Identity, but I don’t have the courage and determination to break the situation through violence.

All in all, the vast majority of Indians are docile, obedient, and fairly hard-working guys.

Their rebellious spirit has been almost wiped out under the caste system.

In the barbaric age when the concept of human rights has not yet appeared, they seem to be born to Otherwise, in the era of Queen Victoria, the British colonists would not have easily ruled the entire South Asian subcontinent with only 3,000 civil servants and 17,000 white soldiers.

Therefore, Wang Qiu does not think that adding a group of Indian subjects to Queen Joan will cause any real trouble.

Speaking of which, the ancestors of the Plantagenet dynasty came from Northern Europe.

Strictly speaking, they should be regarded as Vikings and Normans, not French natives. , nor native to England.

Since they were able to successfully rule the Saxons and Celts in Britain, as well as the French across the Channel, and win the loyal support of these foreigners until modern times, there is no reason why the British royal family is actually a descendant of the Plantagenet dynasty.

Can't handle the more docile Indians.

In India, through repeated brainwashing of religion, caste, and traditional concepts, the small number of ruling classes have completely domesticated the remaining 99% of the lower class, allowing these lower class people to always associate with servility.

This kind of slavishness has reached such a climax that if you throw the key to liberation in front of him, he will spit on the key instead.

Even if he changes his master, this slavishness will not disappear quickly.

But the problem is that the British in this era still know nothing about the character of Indians in distant places, and they have some "fear of the unknown".

"Dear Lord Angel, although these Indians seem quite honest, they are pagans after all.

Even if they have been baptized and converted to our Lord, I am afraid they are not the same as us born Christians.

Will it be difficult?

Discipline, unwilling to serve the lord faithfully.”

A British nobleman frowned as he watched these Indians working under the whip of the overseer.

He said somewhat unconfidently, "I heard a few nobles from Spain say that there are many pagans there.

At that time, Moorish Spain was still in the tug of war between the two major faiths.

Even though it had surrendered to the Christian king, it was still very unruly.

They never truly consider themselves to be someone's subjects.

Even if they are forced to be baptized and converted to our Lord Christ, they still cannot forget their pagan beliefs and are always deeply hostile to us Christians.

They will flee or rebel whenever they get the chance.

Taking care of them is like taking care of prisoners.

Will these Indians be like this in the future?"

"I don't think so.

These Indians are almost the most docile coolies in the world.

Although they are all pagans, they originally believed in another false god, which is completely different from the Moors who believe in the so-called Allah.

Not so aggressive.

According to the Indian theory of karma, a person's status in this world is determined by his previous life.

Determined by behavior.

Therefore, the untouchables in India have always believed that their current plight was caused by their past sins.

The only hope for untouchables in reincarnation is to improve their status in the next life.

By respectfully fulfilling their duties and responsibilities in this world, they are no more difficult to control than serfs in Europe."

Wang Qiu replied, "What's more, as untouchables who are discriminated against, they have been abandoned by Indian society and have become accustomed to being enslaved.

Well, what are untouchables?

This means that their social status is originally lower than that of serfs, a bit like European Gypsies, if you treat them like serfs and give them land to cultivate, you are already elevating their status before these untouchables are happy, so how can they cause trouble?

Even if the worst happens and riots break out, don't worry too much.

Even though these Indians look similar, they actually belong to dozens of ethnic groups.

They don't understand each other's language and can't communicate with each other.

It's simply impossible.

Join forces to cause chaos.

If only a small group of people jumped out to cause trouble, they would surely be able to suppress it easily: haven’t you suppressed serfs to cause trouble a few times?”

"But if this happens, we won't be able to communicate with them.

How can we give them orders then?"

Queen Joan muttered with a headache, "I have had to learn French and English at the same time since I was born.

After I finalized my marriage to Spain, in order to prevent me from not understanding the words of my future subjects, I even didn't speak French with my husband in bed.

I needed a translator, and my father urged me to learn Spanish for another year.

It was really miserable.

Now do I have to learn Indian languages?

There are dozens of them.

Oh God."

Speaking of which, it seems that it is not easy for European royal families to be competent these days.

Learning foreign languages ​​alone can drive people crazy.

For example, if Queen Joan, who has just ascended the throne, wants to communicate directly with all her subjects, then she must master English, French, Irish Gaelic, Netherlands Low German, and the future Dutch at the same time.

As the international language of the Middle Ages, Latin was the standard language of the Roman Empire, but in the Middle Ages it had become a dead script used exclusively by the church and intellectuals, and was basically extinct in the lower classes of society.

The difference between Italian and Latin is roughly the same as the difference between Chinese vernacular and classical Chinese, so not all Italians can understand Latin.

If it were Her Majesty Queen Joanna of Naples, then she would have to master French, Italian, Provence, a small language that was eliminated in later generations, and Latin.

Fortunately, the Jerusalem that bears her name has been lost, otherwise she might still have to go Learning Arabic Not to mention that intermarriage is common among royal families in European countries.

If you don’t want to sign in bed with your future husband, you poor princesses have to prepare in advance and work hard to learn more foreign language courses.

Of course, those princes who are considerate of their future wives They are probably the same.

But it is very obvious that no matter how knowledgeable these medieval European royal families were, they could not speak the language of the Indians.

Fortunately, for the powerful and omnipotent Doraemon, these little troubles are really nothing.

If they can't even pass the most basic language level, how can Doraemon and Nobi Nobita explore the multiverse and go on adventures beyond imagination?

"Please rest assured on this issue, Her Majesty the Queen, and your Excellencies, you don't need to worry at all.

Our Lord is omniscient and omnipotent, and he will never be unable to solve even this little trouble, at least so far.

Everything is still under our control.”

"Angel," Wang Qiu said calmly.

At the same time, he took out a bag of translation konjac jelly he asked for from Doraemon and handed it to Queen Qiong.

"As long as you eat this magical pastry in advance, you can If you communicate with any foreigner, the effective time is about half a day to a day.

Of course, this is only an emergency temporary measure, and we have already prepared it for you."

In addition to tricking a large number of Indian untouchables and Sudras, in order to try to make the British society in the fourteenth century as close as possible to the British society in the twenty-first century, the time travelers also tried to use random doors to get people from the West African region of this plane.

A group of strong black slaves arrived.

Because the tropical forests of West Africa were so infested with poisonous insects and plagued by plague, even the most ferocious and brutal slave-catching team members were deterred.

So these black slaves did not come through wars and plundering, but they bought glass beads, bells, cloth, swords, spears, salt and other things from some black tribes.

The black tribes have always captured enemy tribes during the war.

The habit of taking captives as slaves.

Compared with the generally short and skinny Indians, there are Indian Asans who are tall and mighty, but they usually have some status.

They generally do not appear among untouchables and Shudras, and they are not easily recruited to work as coolies. , most of the black slaves from Africa looked tall and powerful, with strong muscles, more robust and hard-working, and with much stronger vitality.

Naturally, they were more favored by the English ruling class who were hungry for labor.

But it is also inevitable that with the arrival of these West African blacks, various parasites and infectious diseases native to tropical Africa also followed.

The slave traders did not have enough knowledge and experience to know the origin of African tropical diseases.

It was so terrible that the Venetian merchants who dealt with it didn’t even think about it.

The black slaves had to shave their heads and undergo a series of quarantine and purification procedures such as washing, drying and killing fleas.

Fortunately, at this time, Europe had almost become a museum of epidemic diseases.

It had long been easy to have lice and debts.

Even if a few new infectious diseases are added, it doesn't seem to matter anymore.

In this way, Indian-Pakistani immigrants and black people already exist in England today.

As for the yellow Asians, Doraemon and Wang Qiu were too embarrassed to attack the ancient compatriots of their homeland, so they just randomly opened the door.

Driving to America, I bought a small group of Mayan slaves with plastic jewelry, metal knives and green glass beads, so that they could teach white and black people how to grow corn, pumpkins, peppers and potato crops.

In short, after importing nearly 100,000 people into England through this series of shameless means, the extreme labor shortage caused by the Great Plague has finally been slightly alleviated, at least for the time being at most of the royal family's farms in the London Plain.

There are hands to take care of it.

Queen Joan and her courtiers don't have to cultivate their own land with their own hands, and they don't have to worry about feeding the Plantagenet court next year.

Wang Qiu is also very happy to see that London, the capital of the Kingdom of England, has turned into a world ethnography museum like India, with white, black and yellow races.

It can practice the multiculturalism of the European Union five hundred years in advance. doctrine theory.

And the Anglo-Saxons can also broaden their horizons and try how to coexist with neighbors of different skin colors day and night.

Maybe they can successfully evolve into a melting pot of nations like the United States in the future.

This can also be regarded as allowing the Anglo-Saxons who will colonize the world in the future.

Their island homeland gave a preview in advance.

But even so, for the Kingdom of England, which is almost becoming a country of the dead, some problems have not been completely resolved.

First of all, no matter whether they are Indians, Mayans or black people, they are probably not very cold-tolerant.

Fortunately, this was not a big problem in the Middle Ages that ignored human rights.

After those who were most afraid of the cold were frozen to death in the first winter, the remaining People who live under it should be able to adapt to the climate of the Kingdom of England better.

Secondly, and the most fundamental problem is that Europe is still in the haze of the plague at this time.

Whether it is a prosperous city or a remote country, they are all trembling under the scythe of the black-robed god of death.

If an effective method cannot be found to curb the epidemic, Then no matter how many people are imported from all over the world, they will probably be summoned to heaven by the terrible plague soon, turning the world of Europa into a desolate and silent country of the undead once again.

Fortunately, after paying off his debts, Doraemon, whose integrity index has begun to rebound significantly, has already worked with the time-travelers to help these poor medieval Europeans prepare countermeasures and use the "healing technique" that can cure all diseases.

"Teach them and let Europe truly enter the magical era.

"Your Majesty the Queen, Your Excellencies, the Hogwarts School that we renovated on the old site of Oxford University has now been basically completed.

The first group of students gathered from all over Europe have also arrived in Oxford.

I wonder if you are interested.
