Zong Yi is Zhao Feng's elder brother-in-law. He can't do the slave trade with the capital of the Zong family. At least he cannot get a share of the pie from this gluttonous feast. When he came to Temasek, the big head of the capital in his hand came from his brother-in-law.

Therefore, there are people from Zhao Feng who are indispensable in the entourage behind him.

The leader was a man under 30 years old, with thick eyebrows, small eyes, a high nose and a round face, and two big beards. He looked a little funny at first glance, but when he came into contact, he could feel his elegance. He was a master of Zhao Feng's disciple, and his status was similar to that of the previous Korean descendants.

This person's surname is Han, and his single name is Guang.

Behind Han Guang there was a young servant of seventeen or eighteen years old, named Huang San, either, but his Changsui, a servant from the palace.

At this time, Huang San fanned Han Guang with one hand and said with a smile: "King Han, this Temasek has just suffered a disaster and is in panic. Is there really a business to do? Don't come here for nothing."

It is true that Zong Yi is the eldest brother-in-law of the prince, but the friendship between the two sides is not too close. The main reason is that Zong Yi is not Zong Ying, he is just an ordinary country gentry. This kind of business that allows his brother-in-law to do is just like a favor, and the miscarriage will be reduced once.

Han Guang laughed and said, "What's the point of coming here for nothing? It would be a pity if you miss the opportunity to get rich. Besides, this is Temasek!"

Some things did not understand Huang San, but Han Guang understood.

Temasek was nominally the property of King Yue, but in fact the imperial court was under control. This place was in the hinterland of the South China Sea and could control maritime transportation. From his perspective, the government would definitely not take action again.

In the future, King Yue, Prince Yun and others came to Nanyang to establish a country and enfeoff the territory. This place is not guaranteed to be an important stronghold for the imperial court to check and balance overseas vassal states!

The servant didn't say a word.

"By the way, Huang San, how did you learn Nanyang local dialect?"

There is already a Tongwenguan in China. This Nanyang dialect is an ancient Malay language mixed with many Sanskrit words, and of course some people preach.

This language is not the language of the natives of the South China Sea, but it is a commercial language that is widely used in Southeast Asia.

After all, their place had close contact with Tianzhu a long time ago.

"Teacher Weichaye said that I have a very talented language, learned well, and was fluent. I could communicate smoothly with the natives."

Weichaye was a Sanfoqi person who failed in business, but he had a very talented language, proficient in Chinese, and could write decent Chinese characters. When his business failed, he was elected by the Marine Director of Mingzhou to Tongwenguan. While teaching, he also participated in the compilation of the history of Sanfoqi Zhi. His salary was high and he lived a comfortable life in Bianjing City.

After Zhao Feng was determined to get a kick from Temasek, he invited Wei Chaye to teach a group of young servants selected in the mansion. At present, Huang San is the best person to learn in the mansion.

Han Guang nodded: "That's good. When this business is started, your Nanyang dialect will come in handy."

Compared with other brothers, Zhao Feng is lightweight and has little capital. If you don’t get thrown away from the three streets, the only way is to take the lead. Before the other people’s hands and feet reach the Temasek slave market, you should take the lead first.

That's why Zong Yi came so quickly.

However, although this slave storage has been rapidly unfolding in China, the extremely important "process" of how slaves evolved into free people has never been able to make a solid statement.

Zhao Gou watched coldly, and then the people from the government and the country discussed in unison. The group of people could not decide on the charter at all. But this was just a process, and things had to come to a conclusion after all.

After all, the Americans in the original time and space all have "upward channels" for black slaves, how could the Song Dynasty not have it?

When the Lighthouse Kingdom was in the north and south, I won’t talk about the north. There were a large number of black free people in various provinces in the south. It is said that about 20% of all free black families were black slave owners or mixed-race slave owners. They were in the social class between white people and slaves. They would also be troubled by slaves’ escape, and even treated slaves more cruel and harsh.

Although Zhao Gou didn't know whether this was true or not, he thought it was true, even if there were quite a few mistakes in the data. After all, he still had a little impression of "Twelve Years of Slave" and so on.

And he still remembered that Obahie's ancestor (matrix) was said to be the first black slave in the United States. After intermarrying with white people, his descendants had the status of a free citizen.

His attitude directly affected the enthusiasm of everyone. After being affirmed by Zhao Gou, everyone in the court and the country started to discuss. The debates were discussed in the newspapers, the ministers wrote letters, and the disputes on the streets were really lively.

Some people in the court apply the slavery system in history to the present slaves. As long as they can buy out the body contract (or obtain the body contract in other ways, such as the master taking the initiative to release the slave), they can restore their free body.

As soon as this idea was proposed, many people immediately criticized it. The monks from Hengshan, Jinghu, the barbarians from Lingnan, and the savages in the dense forests of the northeast all needed to fight for the Song Dynasty. Only under this premise can outstanding people be changed to Chinese. What kind of virtue can the slaves be? Can they be registered as Chinese so easily?

In this way, someone mentioned the caste system of India. It is recommended to learn the San Ge's marriage system!

According to the system of the three brothers, people of lower castes must marry according to their marriage if they want to be promoted to the class, that is, they must marry their beautiful daughter to men of higher castes as concubines, and also bring a large amount of money as dowry.

This continued for several generations, and such a low-caste family could be promoted.

This proposal may sound good at first, but after thinking about it carefully, it still doesn't work.

Because the slaves in the Song Dynasty are different from those in the lower caste of the Tianzhu people. The latter has a certain sense of freedom of life, is part of the social environment of the Tianzhu continent, and is a separate individual. What about the slaves in the Song Dynasty? It is more like the Black Shuli, which was sold to America in the original time and space.

Whether it is freedom of life or the means of production that belongs to oneself, they have nothing.

Perhaps after a period of evolution, the slave owner will ask the slave to combine work and rest, be healthy, work well, and everyone will be fine. Slaves can work and make money to redeem themselves in the future. The slave owner will also agree and ensure the safety of the slaves' property, because they can buy another young slave after taking the money...

But that's definitely not now.

This is also the biggest difference between them and the slaves in the Han and Tang dynasties.

Zhao Gou was so happy that he saw all the government and the people coming to express their opinions. The more they discussed, the more they made, the more innovative the meaning represented by the word "slave" can be explained to the people all over the world, and the importance of the civil servants can be popularized again.
