Facing Chen Shaohong's surprise, Lu Liang smiled and looked at him:
"Chen Zhenfu is such a good person..."
At this time, the soldier below continued to report:
"There are not many children, and they don't look like their children. They are all disheveled, many have injuries on their bodies, and some are even wearing chains..."
"What the fuck is going on?"
Chen Shaohong was completely shocked. He stopped waiting for someone to report the news and ran into the basement below.
After entering the gate, Chen Shaohong himself was surprised:
"These Taixi monks are so good at playing..."
The guards and officers just reported that it looked like a palace, but Chen Shaohong didn't have any actual feeling yet.
Now after I came in, I realized that this place is really an underground palace.
But the style of this palace is not solemn and solemn, but full of extravagance and lewdness. ,
Large Thai and Western sofas, imported Ming-style soft couches, luxurious Ming and Western furniture are mixed together, and there are also a dazzling array of pearls and jade decorations.
The table is filled with delicacies from the mountains and seas, and dishes and cups are scattered everywhere.
This is a place purely for enjoyment.
Moreover, there was a banquet that was interrupted midway by something important, leaving such a mess.
In this mess, there are several men in disheveled clothes, a group of women with heavy makeup, and a few shivering children.
There are many separate rooms around the hall in the middle of the basement.
Now, guards opened the doors one by one, and more men and women were pulled out.
Although these men and women were a little panicked, they were not particularly afraid. It was as if a hidden secret had been discovered.
Those women may be prostitutes, or female slaves raised in the basement, and they are all used to this kind of life.
However, the condition of those children was obviously much worse, and they seemed to be unable to stand firmly.
Most of them were naked, with scars all over their bodies, and some even had chains hanging around their necks.
Chen Shaohong stared blankly for a long time, then turned to look at Jeffrey who was not far away:
"You monks from Xiyi are so damn good at playing!"
Jeffrey laughed nervously, wondering what Chen Shaohong's state of mind was now.
But Jeffrey mainly didn't want these things to be discovered at first.
Now that people from Ming Dynasty have seen it anyway, there is no need to cover up anymore.
I heard that it was once popular among the Ming Dynasty nobles to play bookboys, so the other party should not be angry about such a thing.
Jeffrey thought about it in his mind, and then tentatively said:
"If...if the general is disgusted, I will arrange someone on the dismount to send them all away.
"If the general wants, you can all stay. I will only take our people away..."
As a result, Chen Shaohong waved his hand directly:
"Drag all these Western monks out and shoot them!"
"Immediately! Leave no one behind!"
The soldier next to him yelled in agreement:
"yes!"
Jeffrey knelt down directly:
"General, don't be impulsive. These things have nothing to do with Ming Dynasty. These people are slaves.
"They are not from the Ming Dynasty, why should the general care about them..."
Chen Shaohong said with a livid face:
“I think as long as it’s an individual, we can’t ignore it.
"Forget about those prostitutes, the key is that those children are all your own children in Xiyi.
"You monks, how can you f*cking be so mean...
“I don’t know the rules and regulations of you Taixi monks, but in my opinion you all deserve to die.
"Take it away!"
Two soldiers set up Jeffrey and prepared to drag him out.
Jeffrey was suddenly at a loss for words. He didn't know whether it was because he was in a hurry or because his brain was twitching and he asked:
"Didn't you Ming people play this way before? Why do you want to take care of us?"
This time, before Chen Shaohong could answer, Zhu Guangjun's voice sounded at the door:
"You also know that was before? Do you know that it was a hundred and fifty years ago?
“Now in our Ming Dynasty, if someone bullies children like this, they will be castrated first and then demoted to slaves, with forced labor for life.
“It’s so easy to die quickly.
"And even in the past, the book boy that our Ming Dynasty took care of was not the slave that you are so tossing.
"Most normal people will raise them well, give them wives and children, and use them as capable subordinates.
“Are you prepared to feed these children here?
"Are you qualified to feed them well?"
Zhu Guangjun said that Jeffrey was speechless, and then turned to look at Chen Shaohong:
"Old Chen, we can't shoot them directly. Let's keep an eye on the situation here and keep the entire scene intact.
"I've already sent someone to get the camera from the ship. We'll write down all these things and publish them in a Western newspaper later."
When Jeffrey heard Zhu Guangjun say that he could not be shot directly, he subconsciously thought that he had a way out.
Unexpectedly, the next half sentence made Jeffrey despair again, and he immediately struggled and roared loudly:
"You can't do this, you can't do this!"
At this time Lu Liang also came over and joined in:
"We could do without that...
"Chen Zhenfu, Governor Zhu, I suggest you leave the matter here to me.
"Our West Factory needs talents like Bishop Jeffrey..."
Chen Shaohong stared subconsciously:
"Didn't your West Factory stop having eunuchs more than a hundred years ago?"
Lu Liang almost spit out, you also know that we don't want eunuchs, why do you still ask?
Zhu Guangjun next to him reacted immediately:
"What Lu Dongtou means is that your West Factory only needs employees like Jeffrey?"
Lu Liang nodded gently:
“Including Bishop Jeffrey, everyone at the scene should leave it to us in the West Factory.
"A copy of the relevant records will also be given to our West Factory as their files."
For today's situation, Xichang has already had a very mature solution.
Jeffrey and the several men at the scene can be regarded as special downlines, and their information is the thread that holds them.
They will continue to live in the French colonies, and may even receive various help from the Ming West Factory to continue to rise to the upper class of the colony.
The prostitutes at the scene have no moral integrity or loyalty, so they can be regarded as ordinary paid downlines, helping Xichang collect and deliver various public information.
The female slaves raised by Jeffrey and the others will receive substantial liberation from Ming Dynasty and basic skills training from Xichang.
From now on, their task is to continue to follow Jeffrey. Although they are still in the name of female slaves on the surface, they will actually become Jeffrey's supervisors, and the status of both parties will be reversed.
As for those children, they will be sent back to Xichang's headquarters in various places and trained from an early age into professional intelligence personnel.
In the future, they may be responsible for the tasks in the mainland of Taixi, or the tasks of the British and French colonies in Yinzhou.
According to the tradition of Xichang, those female slaves can obtain national status of the Yinzhou Domain of the Ming Dynasty after accumulating sufficient merit and working years.
If those children can complete all the training, they can obtain national status of any vassal country of the Ming Dynasty.
If they get enough credit in the mission, they have the opportunity to obtain citizenship of any domain at the age of thirty.
When they retire, based on all their contributions during their service, those who are particularly outstanding can obtain the status of Ming citizens.
This was actually the only long-standing channel for Taixi people to become citizens of the Ming Dynasty.
But not many people know, and those who know are those who know how to keep it secret.
