  Chapter 155 Special Treatment for Immigrants from Tsarist Russia

"Okay, just rely on what you give me, and I won't treat you badly, brother. I just know a St. Petersburg restaurant that tastes good. Let's go there today. As for the remaining two meals, we will meet again next time we come to St. Petersburg." Get together." Maxim readily agreed to the agreement.

   After finishing their work, the two left the pier to eat, while the Tsarist Russian immigrants on board were anxiously waiting for their unknown fate.

  As the black smoke from the steam chimney billowed out, the ship left the pier in St. Petersburg, and the immigration instructors had already entered the scene ahead of time. It can be said that this is the special treatment for Tsarist Russian immigrants.

  "From today onwards, you will never be Slavs again. Forget your religion and nationality. I think you also know that you were sold as goods by your lords.

  So from today you must forget everything about Russia, otherwise you will not have a good life in the colonies. Only by becoming our own people can we get fairness. "Achtmann lectured loudly.

  Achtman is actually a Tsarist Russian, but he is a so-called "Volga German", that is, a German whose ancestors moved to Tsarist Russia during the Ekaterina era.

   Hiring these Germans living in Tsarist Russia, the Hechingen Consortium can save the effort of finding translators.

  These Germans living in Tsarist Russia were attracted by Russian policies and retained their own beliefs and culture, so many of them could communicate bilingually in Tsarist Russia.

  They are all favored by Ekaterina the Great. In Ekaterina's view, German farmers are more hardworking and organized than Russians. Therefore, Ekaterina called on the Germans to emigrate to Tsarist Russia with their families to engage in agricultural development by offering favorable conditions.

   Coincidentally, Ernst thought the same way, so this is the same way he played in East Africa. The difference is that Ekaterina only introduced German immigrants to Tsarist Russia.

   While Ernst introduced German immigrants and other immigrants, he also had to clear out the local aborigines.

After all, serfs in Tsarist Russia are called gray cattle, which are more than one level stronger than the natives in East Africa. For serfs, gray cattle are insulting words, but for rulers, gray cattle are wonderful words, representing a large amount of cheap and high-quality labor .

   Originally, Alexander II wanted to change the status quo of Tsarist Russian society by liberating the serfs, but he might not have imagined that Ernst, the sixth man, would focus on the liberated labor force.

   It stands to reason that Ernst should give priority to the Volga Germans in Russia, after all, there are hundreds of thousands of pure Germans.

  However, East Africa is not attractive to these Germans in Tsarist Russia. Affected by Ekaterina’s policy, these Germans lived well in Tsarist Russia, especially before, they had many privileges, which were slowly deprived of them over the years.

   It is also funny to say that the Germans value principles and refuse bribes. Therefore, many senior positions in the judicial field in Russia at that time were held by Germans.

"Don't be unconvinced! You are just the private property of the lord. There is no Emperor Alexander II. You are still serfs until now. There is no place for you in Russian society. You are just talking tools." Ahtman Continue to indoctrinate these serfs.

   First of all, Alexander II was promoted, the monarch! Of course, it is impossible to make mistakes, and it is always kind, loving and holy. After all, it is impossible for a person like Ernst to tear himself down.

  The following is to find a reason to let these Russian serfs stop treating themselves as human beings. Do you think you are Russian? No, you are not even a human being, so don't think about the Russian way, subtly distinguishing its identity from Russia.

   After all, Russian culture is not bad, especially in the field of religion and customs, which is completely different from Europe.

This kind of immigration with its own culture, of course, the East African colonies must completely obliterate their national characteristics, otherwise it will be a disaster, especially Tsarist Russia’s current status in the world is not bad, just like those poor people in the slums of the British Empire, although I am poor , but I have a strong motherland.

In this way, East Africa should also thank the Qing government. Those Chinese immigrants retained very little of their ethnic characteristics. This kind of philosophy of life is to shoot the bird that stands out.

   This thing can't fight against European religion and culture at all. Wisdom in life is not culture at all. This thing exists all over the world, and even some intelligent animals have it.

  And the poor in this era have never been the disseminator of culture, only the nobles and rich people pay more attention to this aspect.

  The uniqueness of the Tsarist Russian immigrants compared to the Chinese is that all aspects of their lives are influenced by the Orthodox Church, so Ernst treated the Tsarist Russian immigrants differently.

Achtman took the pointer, stepped forward, pointed to the shrinking St. Petersburg and said to the immigrants: "See there! There is Russia, but from today onwards, it has nothing to do with you anymore, You will never come back in your life.

  So put away the fantasy, you, including your descendants, will never have anything to do with Russia, and give up everything about Russia, language, clothing and even the Orthodox Church. "

  Achtman still looks forward to someone standing up against him, so that he can set an example, but obviously, no one dares to come out and refute himself.

  Perhaps what Achtman said is indeed reasonable. They were all reduced to the point of being sold by the lord, and they must have not done well in Tsarist Russia.

  In this era of immigrants, except for those free people who took the initiative to go to the United States to escape religion and corruption, how can others have so much power to think about it.

  When boarding the carriage of Giovanni and others, these immigrants had some guesses about what happened to them.

  Now Achtman’s education is not worth mentioning to these Tsarist Russian immigrants. Some people are ready to continue the serf life of beating and scolding.

  However, Tsarist Russian immigrants still roughly understand what Achtman means, isn’t it just a division with Russia? It's a promise, and you can't ask for it.

   Of course, with regard to religion, some immigrants do have objections in their hearts, but the situation is stronger than others, so just change it, God will forgive me.

  Anyway, after breaking away from the church, the right to interpret religion has returned to oneself. At this time, there are no priests and pastors to restrain themselves with precepts.

  In fact, most people have their own understanding of religion, especially this group of serfs who have no education and no access to books.

  Once they leave the church, their understanding of religious knowledge, that is, the existence of God, a few famous gods, and the rest are basically zero.
