The Holy One of the late Spring and Autumn period once said: "Where misfortune depends, blessing falls." This means that blessings and evils are mutually transformative, and one thing may bring bad results, but it can also lead to good results.
For example, the history of the continent also runs according to this trajectory, and a dynasty will rise and fall from one to the other. Qin Shi Huang, as we know it, unified the six kingdoms and established the Great Wall, but no one could have imagined that such a large dynasty only lasted for more than ten years.
In fact, since the Xia Dynasty, there are a total of 24 dynasties on the mainland, and these dynasties seem to have a common reincarnation, that is, from prosperity to decline, no feudal dynasty dynasty can be immortal, but the difference between long and short.
As the last feudal dynasty on the mainland, the Qing Dynasty signed many unequal treaties at the end of its period due to the inaction of the Qing court, and the Western powers also opened the door to the mainland.
On February 12, 1912, the Qing dynasty collapsed, and the dynasty of feudal rule finally ended. At this time, the leading figure on the historical stage was Yuan Shikai. He exploited the common people, wanted to restore feudal rule, and befriended the Western powers, giving them cheap labor.
At that time, the life of the people was miserable, Yuan Shikai claimed that he could make money abroad, and the salary was still high, and he would just dig a coal mine at ordinary times, and as a result, hundreds of thousands of Chinese workers were tricked out of the country, in fact, they went to dig coal to make money, but this was not the case abroad, and the treatment and salary were not much better.
However, although these hundreds of thousands of Chinese workers were deceived, but what was waiting for them later were hundreds of thousands of French girls, why?
Originally, these hundreds of thousands of migrant workers themselves were digging coal in China, and after hearing that they could earn more and have better benefits abroad, they took dozens of hours by train and came to France. I didn't expect that the treatment was not as good as in China, and there was no time to rest at all.
The high-intensity work makes these migrant workers in foreign countries very painful, they do not understand the language, and they have no money to buy tickets to return to China, so they can only continue to choose to stay in France to dig coal, hoping to save enough money for tickets one day.
Later, World War I broke out in France, which lasted four years and left French soldiers with heavy losses. According to statistics, 1.5 million French soldiers died on the battlefield, and the already small French population was seriously disorganized.
World War I not only cost French soldiers heavy losses, but also ceded some land to Germany. The imbalance of the population has caused a rapid decline in newborns in France, which is an endless problem for the development of a country.
Therefore, in order to solve the urgent need, they planned to use these hundreds of thousands of laborers, that is, to allow French women to marry these coal diggers.
Who would have thought that these deceived laborers would be blessed with misfortune, and some would marry handsome French girls with white skin and settle down and have children. Some also joined the ranks of the French army and participated in the war. Many of them stayed in the local area and did not want to go home.
These hundreds of thousands of Chinese workers alleviated the imbalance between men and women in France and brought them hope, and later in order to thank them, a monument was placed in Paris' Chinatown.
In our lives, although we have suffered losses for a while, we should not make premature conclusions, maybe under certain conditions, bad things will become good things. Therefore, everything must be optimistic, put a correct attitude, everything is good and bad.
