Chapter 1028 Immigrants
The wheel of history moves forward slowly, and the new year is coming soon.In last year's poverty census, a large number of harvested "heads" have gathered in Chang'an.

Just as Chang'an City in history was the starting point of the eastern end of the land silk road, now it is also the starting point of a large number of people who migrated westward.

All over the country—mainly the "poor people" in the provinces north of the Yangtze River, and the people of the provinces south of the Yangtze River [Jinling immigrants were divided into two halves] all took boats, took the boat to Tianfang, and then arrived in Anguo by land [Lu Wan] And Luo Guo [Lu Yu].The poor in the provinces north of the Yangtze River could only rely on horse-drawn carriages.They dragged their families with them one by one, and even thousands of miles would take a long distance. How could they do it without a carriage?

In the past, people from all provinces have used townships as units and prefectures and counties as clusters. It took several months before and after, and batch after batch passed through this camp outside Chang'an City like flowing water.

Now, the immigrants from Qilu Province finally arrived.It's already April, and I don't know where they will spend the winter this year.

The camp was filled with people neighing and people neighing.

Liu Dahai has already resigned to his fate.After realizing that he couldn't escape this time, he disposed of the family property as quickly as possible, and then bought a two-horse four-wheeled carriage to load necessary daily necessities and his wife and children.

But he still doesn't have a specific plan for the future.You must know that the four vassal kingdoms conferred on the western end by Emperor Lu this time, besides Anguo [Lu Anhui], which is intended to be in Asia Minor, and Luo Kingdom [Lu Yu], which is dominated by the North Caucasus and the southern Russian grasslands, there are also kingdoms with Wu Wang Luyue. Muwang Luyun, which equally divides Ross and the western end of the Xiqincha Grassland.

What Liu Dahai faces now is not the problem of choosing between King Wu and King Mu. He has no choice in this regard.He was unlucky enough to be assigned to King Wu's territory, and he had the right to choose a place to stay among the twelve counties and forty counties.

There are [-] prefectures and [-] counties in Wu State. People like Liu Dahai who have been struggling for many years are not qualified to live in the ten counties of Xin'an [Kiev] prefecture.

In the resettlement camp outside Chang’an City, big-character posters are plastered on the notice walls. For the immigrants crowded here, each big-character poster is a “life-saving straw” and a gateway to a new life. the gate.

And at the bottom of the big-character poster, the presenter also left an 'address'.In the resettlement camp, a small area separated by a fence, the cross road divides the entire area into four parts, each of which is a square divided by a cross road.Both sides of every street and alley here are full of small tents, and people with various accents are yelling loudly, just like those of later generations yelling for big discounts and big sales.

The layout in the small tent is very simple, there is only one big blackboard, a few rows of simple small benches, and a desk in front of the blackboard with stacks of advertisements on it.There is nothing else.

But before the immigrants pass by, these small tents will always be filled with panic-stricken immigrants.They are people from the Propaganda Department of the Resettlement Bureau of each vassal state.

Each small tent corresponds to a place, which may be a county, or a country, or more likely a county.

The stacks of advertisements placed on the table serve as an introduction to their respective areas.

"Rongjun, Rongjun, thousands of acres of fertile land are waiting for you. It is the most generous place in the country of Wu. We are looking for clean, healthy and strong men and women! One thousand acres of fertile land are allocated to each person, regardless of age or sex! The maximum loan can be If it reaches [-] yuan, everyone will come to Rongjun..."

"Ya County is located in the southeast of Wu State, with a suitable climate and far away from Xiyi. Those who need fields have fields, and those who want to graze have pastures. Craftsmen can get higher loans with grade certificates! Whether it is external environment or internal factors, It is the best choice for everyone to settle down and buy a home!"

"As long as you are down-to-earth and strong, the Zijun Copper Mine is waiting for you! Work hard for three to five years, and you will have enough food and clothing for a lifetime! Everyone who comes to Zijun comes to Zijun!"

This is just a cry at the county level, and it is even more complicated when it comes to the county level.

Liu Dahai was dazzled by seeing it, and his mind was numb when he heard it.

But after all, he has read the book, and he also pays attention to the news in the newspaper on weekdays, knowing that the most important thing about emigrating abroad is three points.First, is the situation safe; second, how is the treatment; third, what are the prospects for development?

The state of Wu is located at the westernmost point, thousands of miles away from the Central Plains, and there are many enemy states on the border, so there is more than one danger.After Liu Dahai learned that he was assigned to the Wu Kingdom, he lamented for a long time.If it came from his mind, he would not go to Wu country, and Japan next door is a good place to go.If you want gold mines, you have gold mines, and if you want silver mines, you have silver mines. Why bother traveling thousands of miles to the country of Wu?But it's not up to him.

"Zi County... no, the mine is too tiring and dangerous, and there are few loans." He doesn't have a lot of money now, and he is worried that no one will put him in debt?
"Yajun...is not good either." It's too complicated, there are not only a lot of natives there, but also a large number of barbarians from outside the pass.

"Rong County..., the treatment is really high. The average per capita is a thousand acres of fertile land..." There are five members of their family, that is five thousand acres, a total of fifty hectares.But where is too dangerous...

Liu Dahai suffered from difficulty in choosing, and drifted outside for a whole day without making a decision.Returning to the residence with the afterglow of the setting sun, he saw that his wife had brought the dinner back.The two older children are already making enough food and clothing by themselves, while the remaining little ones are clinging to their mother's arms and being fed eggs bit by bit.

For these immigrants, Lu Qi treated them very well. For children under the age of 12, two eggs or two pieces of meat per day, including bacon and salted fish; for children under the age of 16, one egg or one piece of bacon per day must be guaranteed.The meal for adults is salty porridge with noodle cakes. There are minced bacon and salted fish in the porridge, or dried shrimp and fish skin.

Of course, the fish skin is not the skin of the fish, but the leftovers of some small fish, shrimps and big fish are mixed together, beaten into bean skin like rice cakes, and then steamed and dried, which is very durable.

There are such salty porridge and noodle cakes, plus brick-like tea bricks. The latter needs to be cooked and drunk by oneself. Adults will not be hungry and will not lose nutrition.In this way, even if it is a long-distance migration, as long as the immigrants are in good health, not many people will die no matter how far the road is.

"Rong County, go to Rong County!"

When Liu Dahai talked about the conditions of the counties and counties in Wu, his mother-in-law yelled without even thinking about it.

"Go to Rong County, fart. That's Bian County. Xiyi Bao may kill him one day, and go to Rong County..."

"Liu Dahai, you are a wimp, are you still a man? Thousands of acres of land, the future of your son is not as important as your rotten life, isn't it? Xiyi has come here, what is the court doing? If they can come back , where else can the imperial court hit them?"
