Silver City by Li Rui
This book has many stories inside one follows the family from t
he early 1900's and all the men and all the women and their
wives and their concubines and their children the other half of
the story is about the Silver Mines in China I found something
very interesting how the fathers would actually beat their children
young adult men with lashes of a whip some women would
actually destroy their beauty so they would not be forced into
doing something they did not want to show more do the Army tactics at one
point to try to take over the silver mine was really strange because
the guy was set up so that he ended up giving up everything and
then the other man got all the money back and all the other
credentials that went with it the guy did not see it coming .
So Much Death I can't understand why so many men committed
suicide and I also can't understand why the fathers allowed their
sons to be put in prison to end up dying there by execution that
is just so sad to hear about all this just because of greed
I received this book from National Library Service for my BARD (Braille Audio Reading Device). show less
