There were more than 100 people, whining and hurrying forward behind the black-clothed platoon commander.

After walking for more than a quarter of an hour, the platoon commander of the black-clothed army led them to a camp guarded by many black-clothed sergeants.

At this time, though, the biggest attraction for this whole boatload of people is not the camp where they will be resting tonight. Rather, it was a dozen ragged men tied with ropes to the camp's wooden fence.

"You see it." At this point, the black-clothed platoon commander who walked in the front couldn't help but point to the people who were tied to the wooden fence to everyone nonchalantly. "I know it's not easy for you to come all the way from home to get here, but I've remembered it all."

"It's not easy for you, and that's not an excuse for you to break the law and make trouble. These people are all ruffians who come to the camp and want ** women, strongman property, and stealing. So if one of you who doesn't open your eyes wants to do the same, then you can try it too. After saying this, the platoon commander of the black-clothed army couldn't help but use his sharp eyes to scan the boatload of people behind him.

And after Lu Gan's boatman came into contact with the platoon leader's gaze, he couldn't help but bow his head one after another, not daring to look at him.

However, at this time, Lu Gan heard that these people were arrested and tied up here because of ** women, strongmen, property and theft. Holding his package tightly, he couldn't help but scold hatefully: "You deserve it!" If you have to do this, you have to bully people, what a bunch of brutes with a bad conscience! ”

Maybe it was because Lu Gan had been robbed before, so this time he was silent but he couldn't control his emotions.

The voice that caused him to scold was so loud that even the black-clothed platoon commander who was walking in front could hear it clearly. As for this, the platoon commander of the black-clothed army who walked in front couldn't help but smile and nodded to him.

"Alright, I'll tell you the rules. That is, after coming here, no one can make trouble. Alright, now you all come with me into the camp. After saying this, the platoon leader couldn't help but turn around again and walk forward.

This camp, at the beginning, was left over when Zhang Shihua led the army to the south a few years ago. Therefore, the camp was very large and wide, and it was completely large enough to accommodate the people who had come from these immigrants.

But the only embarrassment now is that although the camp is large, the tents in the camp are not enough.

So after taking these people to devour a simple dinner, the platoon commander of the black-clothed army couldn't help but give them an explanation because of this incident.

"Well, it's true. At the beginning, I was actually going to give each of you a tent for you to rest overnight. But you also know how many people you have signed up to immigrate, so if you follow the previous plan, you will have a tent for each family, and then the tents will not be enough. ”

"So at this time, I can only let you boatload people to live in Datongpu. See, with this ditch as the boundary, on the left is the men's bunks, and on the right is the women's bunks. Anyone of you has to live like this now. ”

"But don't worry, there will be someone to stand guard for you at night. Absolutely not let your daughters be harassed. I, Wulin, assure you with this head on my shoulder, that nothing will happen to you if you stay here tonight. Wu Lin righteous words reassured.

And when this boatman heard Wulin's words, most of the people in this boat, most of the people with their families, couldn't help but let go of their hanging hearts.

After all, in the late Yuan Dynasty, it was too cruel for women.

If Wulin didn't make such a guarantee to them, how could these women dare to rest overnight in this unfamiliar place; And how could their men rest assured.

But at this time, Lu Gan, who was alone, didn't feel anything. For someone who has endured too much hardship, it is already good to have a place to shelter from the wind and rain at night.

So at this time, he just held his package tightly, and his expression seemed very indifferent.

……

After a night of silence and the effort of opening and closing your eyes, it was the next day.

On this day, after Lu Gan and the others finished breakfast, they were also led by another person under the arrangement of Wu Lin, the platoon leader of the black-clothed army, and continued to walk west along a tributary of the Han River in Yicheng.

After all, the population of Yicheng this time has reached 20,000, and it is naturally impossible for 20,000 people to gather in the small county seat of Yicheng.

Therefore, Lu Gan's boatload of people was arranged in the countryside. Perhaps it won't be long before they have the land and they will be able to build a whole new village.

Therefore, although Lu Gan and the others still need to continue to travel, they don't feel tired at all when they think that they will soon have a piece of land of their own, and they have dared to travel for several days.

But it was actually okay, although they left the camp early in the morning, but they didn't travel too far.

There were more than 100 people, and after walking along the river for more than 20 miles, they came to an extremely desolate town.

Well, although this place used to be a township, it is now not even a village.

Because, almost a year ago, this place was completely destroyed because of the war between Meng Haima and Dafu Badulu.

So now this place is Zhang Shihua, after he issued the immigration policy, he mobilized the black-clothed army to build a house on the original site.

Of course, the house was built only in the most rudimentary adobe house, and the black-clad sergeant who served as the construction team had not finished the house until now.

After all, after determining that the immigrant population had reached 200,000, the town was ready to settle 800 people. In this way, the amount of work is suddenly doubled. Relying on the strength of more than a hundred black-clothed sergeants alone, it is naturally impossible to get everything done in ten days.

So in the next few days, Lu Gan and the others will definitely have to assist the Black Clothes Army to build a house.

Well, these are also later words, so let's not mention them at this time. Speaking of now, when Lu Gan and his boatload of more than 100 people came here under the leadership of a black-clothed army commander, the first person who greeted them was a person dressed as an official.

I have to say that no matter how the population withers, there is never a shortage of people under Zhang Shihua's rule who are willing to be a scribe and receive public food for Zhang Shihua.

Therefore, there are not many people in this place, except for some big clans who have built villages in the countryside to protect themselves. But the people who are willing to come to this place to be the six-room clerk are still in a pile.

Therefore, at this time, the most important thing under Zhang Shihua is that there is no shortage of officials who are literate and know some arithmetic.

"Haha, that's good, I've been waiting for a few days, and you're here. Come, give me all your paperwork, and I will make arrangements for you, and then divide the fields for you, as well as houses, farm tools, and seeds. Finally, as soon as they met, this scribe said what Lu Gan and the others wanted to hear the most.

Therefore, for all the arrangements of this scribe, Lu Gan's boat of more than 100 people is also extremely cooperative. By the evening, the 100-odd people had the fields, houses, tools and seeds they wanted most.

"Great, I finally have my own land, we finally have our own land, we finally have our own land......" In the afternoon, when these people received the land deeds and land deeds that the officials had personally issued to them, these poor people who had been dreaming of owning a piece of land could not help but cry excitedly.

Among the crying crowd, Lu Gan, who has lived alone for many years, is naturally one of them.

"Daddy, have you seen it, son, I finally have my own land, son, I finally have my own land!" Lu Gan howled like this, and his voice was particularly excited.

And looking at the scene of these people crying with joy, whether it was Zhao Kai, who originally came here to support his family, or the black-clothed sergeant who had just finished the two-month boot camp training and came to serve as a construction team, he couldn't help but have a strange feeling in his heart.

It's 'all this we do is meaningful, we are needed'. So after this feeling arises, it does make these people get great spiritual satisfaction.

And this is to unconsciously plant a seed in their hearts, so that they understand the meaning of dedication and dedication.

……

Soon the sun had set, and another calm night had arrived.

It is said that in the past, as long as the sun sets, then at most an hour, Lu Gan can definitely fall asleep.

After all, for a person like him, who has to work hard for his next meal every day, the so-called nightlife in later generations is simply something that they will never dare to imagine.

But today, Lu Gan, who has the skill of 'snoring with his head on a pillow', has extremely rare insomnia.

Yes, it's insomnia, and when it's midnight after tossing and turning, Lu Gan, who is full of excitement, still can't fall asleep.

Living in this adobe house, which can shelter from the wind and rain, it is extremely simple, and can even be said to be a home with four walls, Lu Gan can't help but feel unprecedented satisfaction.

Lying on a small wooden bed, with a dozen pennies under him and selling it to them, it was almost equivalent to an old bedding given for nothing, and his body was covered with an old quilt that had been used for many years, in addition to barely being clean, it was also bought for more than a dozen yuan. Several hours passed, but Lu Gan still had a smile on his face.

"Hehe, I, Lu Gan, finally have a piece of land of my own, a full fifteen acres of land!" Lu Gan said, and couldn't help but use his two hands to touch the land deed, land deed and house deed on his chest over and over again, and the whole person was now like a demon.

Therefore, the more this is the case, the more difficult it is for him to fall asleep when he is overly excited.

But at this time, he was not sleepy at all. After all, he got fifteen acres of land for nothing! How to say it, after the beggar won five million, it should be Lu Gan's current mood. So how excited Lu Gan is now is that you can imagine.

So now Lu Gan is like a demon, and he is like a pancake on the bed, turning over and over again.

However, after he turned his body from facing the wall to facing the outside, he couldn't help but feel a little sleepy when he saw all kinds of farm tools in the corner, and the excitement on his face couldn't help but become more intense.

Yes, they received all kinds of farming implements as promised. There is no shortage of iron hoes, sickles, dustpans, ploughs, and other things.

But it's really just like the ship's boss guessed, these things are not given to them for free, and they also have to pay for these things at cost price.

However, in this regard, Lu Gan and the others not only did not have any idea of complaining, but they were extremely grateful to Zhang Shihua and their Lord Pingzhang.

Not only because the cost price of the farm tools that Zhang Shihua gave them was twice as cheap as the ones bought in the market, but also because they could use these things first, and then wait for the autumn harvest to pay for these things.

And what's even better is that in the process, they can't help but overpay even the interest of even a copper plate.

Such a good thing, Lu Gan definitely didn't dream of it until he saw it in person.

Yes, in the eyes of Lügan, a Chinese who lived in the XIV century. People lend you something, and then they don't ask you for interest on a copper plate for most of the year. This kind of thing is definitely the biggest good thing in the world.

And the reason why Lu Gan would have such an idea is not because the usury of the people is too common and too deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

As a modern person, it is difficult for us to imagine how terrible usury was in ancient times.

Let's just talk about one of the most famous usury in ancient times, nine out of thirteen. The simple meaning of these nine out of thirteen is that you borrow ten taels of silver from others, but you can only get nine taels of silver, which is also nine out. Then when you repay the money, even if you borrow on the first day and repay it on the second day, you will still be charged three months of interest. And it is still the interest calculated according to ten taels of silver, and the interest of a month is a dime, or a rollover.

This means that even if you repay the money the next day, then you still have to pay back the thirteen taels with interest. This is also the thirteen returns.

Come to think of it, this is just a bone knock! With such a high interest rate, 90 out of a hundred borrowers can exchange interest for him, which is good.

Therefore, in ancient times, the vast majority of the small peasant class were also bankrupt by this kind of usury that killed people and did not pay their lives.

Therefore, after knowing that Zhang Shihua did not charge them a penny of interest, these poor people who had never read a book couldn't help but become Zhang Shihua's hardcore supporters in an instant. And in my heart, I am extremely grateful to Zhang Shihua for his benevolent deeds.

Even like Lu Gan and others, they have already begun to prepare for Zhang Shihua's ancestral hall.

Therefore, this immigration can't help but let Zhang Shihua collect the hearts of these poor people who have immigrated over.
