Chapter 97: The Problem of New Immigrants

More than half of the second batch of immigrants recruited from Daming are still living in temporary resettlement houses at the health quarantine station, some of these people are refugees with their families, and some are in Guangzhou and other places that can't get along.

Whatever the purpose of the eventual come, there is one thing they must do, and that is to submit absolutely to the arrangements of the Executive Committee, which is elected by the entire Crossing Population. For new immigrants who do not obey discipline, it can be said that it is indeed a very difficult problem for the immigration bureau.

These people are still more obedient in all other aspects, but if they want to be reasonable, these people will blow up, and they are a little more educated about what kind of body hair and skin are affected by their parents, and those who are uneducated shake their heads vigorously, saying that this is not good, the owner, the owner, this is sorry for the ancestors.

For this reason, these people also went on a hunger strike in exchange for the consent of the Australian owners, agreeing to let them not get a haircut, no haircut, this is absolutely not possible, the executive committee clearly stipulates that everyone, except women, must have their hair cut off.

You must know that their hair barbers carry the existence of many small creatures, and it is very likely that because of their actions, they will bury the population of Chang'an Town.

In fact, it is indeed a bit difficult to persuade them to get a haircut, and there should be experience in this matter, but this experience is useless now.

Originally, according to the practice of the immigration bureau, it was to find a few influential old people in the first batch of immigrants to persuade them, telling them the benefits of haircuts and the dangers of having long hair, but it was useless, and people were not only not persuaded but also scolded.

In the face of these diehards, the immigration bureau has no choice, and it can't use force, look at this posture, as long as you use force, these will definitely be able to go on a hunger strike and protest to death.

As long as you know a little bit about the history and culture before the Manchu Qing Dynasty, you know that there is a sentence that the parents of the body hair and skin are absolutely unreasonable, since the Manchu Qing Dynasty entered the mandatory shaving of the head, this sentence has become an ornament, because although some people have violated its meaning.

Therefore, in the Ming and Qing dynasties, literati would rarely say this sentence, perhaps feeling sorry for the sages, and daring to be ashamed in their hearts, so it was better not to say it.

The disharmony of the diehards, coupled with the Executive Committee's demand for civilized means of persuasion, cannot be forced, so these diehards have been staying in the resettlement houses of the health and quarantine stations, and they have not been able to achieve anything.

The deputy director of the health quarantine station, Chen Zhicong, walked in with a list and army commander Ma Dongming.

"Commander Ma, these people are very stubborn, I have no choice, so I'll leave it to you, the number of people is here, you have to count it well."

Ma Dongming is the new army commander who was appointed after Xu Renguo officially gave up his position as army commander, and Lao Xu values him very much, plus he has served in the army before, so he was awarded the rank of colonel directly when recruiting.

Colonel Army Commander, this is by far the second-highest rank in the military system, so as long as the soldiers and officers in the military system see him, they must salute.

The main purpose of Ma Dongming's visit this time is twofold: one is to solve the current more than 300 diehards, and the other is to replenish the army's troop resources.

The staffing of the army is a company, but with the establishment of new towns and overseas territories, the number of soldiers has been seriously insufficient, and the soldiers left in Hong Kong are enough to have three squads, that is, a platoon of people.

As the population increased, and with the increase in the number of indigenous labourers, more and more soldiers were assigned to the army, and the number of troops had to be expanded.

The skilled talents in the new immigrants have basically been determined by the factories and mines, and the young guys are also regarded as skilled workers who can be trained in the future, so they have taken away the people they need early in the morning.

What is left now, if it weren't for the problem of shaving the head, I'm afraid there would be very little left, after all, the base of the lack of population in each group is very large, as long as it is from the Ming Dynasty, it will be very welcome.

Chen Zhicong invited Ma Dongming to help solve the problem because he heard that the army needed to recruit some new recruits, and immediately thought about whether he could recommend these people to the army.

Isn't it that you don't want to get a haircut, that's good, it's okay, let you keep your hair and go to devilish training, if you can't stick to it when the time comes, then you can only get a haircut, as for those who persevere, Chen Zhicong feels that the army can definitely handle this problem well.

Indeed, the military is all about absolute obedience, not on whether you want to or not.

Ma Dongming is here to take people away, because most of the immigrants recruited are young people, so most of the immigrants are mainly young.

Watching the soldiers with loaded guns enter the courtyard, the diehards who were originally basking in the sun suddenly became nervous, after all, anyone would be a little nervous in the face of a group of soldiers with loaded guns, they were all ordinary people, and no one knew what would happen in the next moment.

"Gentlemen, lads, it is a pleasure to meet you, I am Ma Dongming, the commander of the Australian Army, and now I announce that you have been unconditionally drafted into the active army reserve, and from now on, I will train you strictly until you become a qualified army soldier."

Forcibly conscripted, was conscripted into the army, what does this mean, is it because there is no haircut, it is impossible, this is definitely a conspiracy, the conspiracy of the Australians, and the conspiracy of the Australians must not be allowed to succeed, this is what some people think.

"No, I'm not a soldier, I'm going to work in a factory, sir, I'm willing to get a haircut." Some of the weak-willed ones began to shout that they would be delivered.

Chen Zhicong on the side, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "Asked with a smile, yes, then you can think about it." ”

"Think about it, sir."

For those who repent, Chen Zhicong and Ma Dongming discussed that as long as they are willing to get a haircut, they don't need to forcibly join the army.

However, there are still some people who are determined and see this as an old Australian scare to them.

Ma Dongming naturally forced these determined guys to take them away and take them to the army camp, and the first task assigned to them was a five-kilometer cross-country mission.
