Chapter 792: Self-Safety
Daming's collection was carefully sealed and transported out of the Forbidden City to the cruise ship, and the grain of "Nanming" was continuously transported to the official warehouse of Beijing through the "Beijing-Tianjin Expressway Road" for storage.
Seeing that there were many large boxes full of things being shipped out of the Forbidden City and out of the capital through the "Beijing-Tianjin Expressway Road" to Tianjin Wei Port for loading and shipping, too many rich people realized something.
Not long after, many deep mansions in the capital were also packing and packing, and many rare treasures poured out of the capital.
Wu Youxing and Fang Yizhi came to Wang Gongchang Medical Center at the beginning of the year to treat and save people, because many displaced people flocked to the capital, and there was an epidemic in the suburbs of Beijing.
Fortunately, the sanitary situation in the capital has been greatly improved compared to history, and the large number of cats has successfully eliminated the rodent infestation, and there has been no large-scale outbreak of the plague.
The "Nanming" medical team has accumulated many means to prevent and control the plague, and there is an infectious disease in the suburbs of Daming Beijing, and "Nanming" is willing to sit idly by.
Many medical workers came to Beijing, a large number of medicines were transported to the emergency, Wu Youxing took a few expert-level doctors to personally command the prevention and control of the plague, and the infection was effectively contained.
The medical team brought by Wu Youxing and Fang Yizhi has no prejudice when treating diseases and saving people, and both high-ranking officials and nobles and Shengdou Xiaomin will do their best, and patients who cannot afford medical expenses will also be exempted as appropriate.
Wearing a white coat, the "Nanming" doctor used practical actions to interpret what is the heart of the doctor's parents, they not only won the love of the people of Beijing, but also let many thieves and spies look at it, and some spies received medical treatment.
In the late autumn of the sixteenth year of Chongzhen, there was a large-scale migration wave in Jingshi, and many wealthy businessmen who had transferred their assets to Beijing for refuge finally found that it was not necessarily safe here, and they embarked on a journey to find a comfortable nest again.
Shengdou Xiaomin doesn't care who will sit in the world, as for "Da Shun" and Da Ming, no one can say who is good and who is bad, everyone only knows that Nanwang is the best, but unfortunately he doesn't seem to have any intention of taking the Beijing division to sit in the country.
Although there was a large-scale capital flight, the city was in order, and because there was food in the city, the people did not panic.
The common people are not very demanding, and it is happiness to be able to mix two meals a day and have a full stomach, as long as the common people who have food and clothing in Beijing cannot leave their hometowns and immigrate to the far south.
The Ming Dynasty was more difficult, the civil and military affairs were more superficial, the old Gao Di did not return to his hometown, but went to Hainan Island to spend his old age, and the left squire of the military department Gao Zhimou was approved, and he was ready to go to the "New Hangzhou" to attend the wedding.
Although Wang Zhichen was only in his early sixties, he was tired of the court's fraudulent resignation and returned to his hometown, and soon he received an invitation and happily rushed to "New Hangzhou".
Liang Tingdong, Zhang Fengyi, Zhou Yanru and other incumbent pavilion elders also took leave, Emperor Chongzhen obviously knew that these people were going to the king of the south to show a small face, and there was nothing to be done, and he couldn't keep his heart to keep people, so he was at peace with what he encountered.
More than half of the Jingshi Xungui is also gone, and many people may not come back because they have already transferred all their assets.
Some people are leaving, and some people are coming, and some of them are exactly the same as the population flow in the early days of reform and opening up, with peasants moving into cities and towns, county residents moving to provincial capitals, people from second- and third-tier cities flocking to first-tier cities, and some elites from first-tier cities going abroad for development.
Too many wealthy, powerful and powerful original residents of Jingshi went to "New Hangzhou", the capital of the "Southern Ming Dynasty", which thought that they could have safety and security, and many wealthy businessmen and nobles from Shanxi, Henan, Gyeonggi and other places who were superstitious about the high walls of Jingshi City and the solid foundation came to settle down in Beijing.
When they left Beijing, they sold the mansions in the county seat and the capital city, and most of the people they took over were landlords who fled the countryside.
Too many original residents in Beijing sold their real estate on a large scale, and the low prices at this time were comparable, and many wealthy people who came to take refuge from other places took refuge.
The reason why they chose Jingshi to settle down with confidence is not only that the city is high and the walls are thick and there are Beijing camps stationed here, but the most important reason is that the price of grain in Jingshi is stable, and the polished rice has never exceeded two and a half silver coins and one stone.
There is food and self-security, most people think that there are strong cities, strong troops and enough grain and grass, the Ming Dynasty has been established for more than 200 years, and the Beijing division has been besieged many times but has never been broken by any enemy, and this time should be no exception.
Will Li Duyan take the Jingshi? The answer is yes. Because the thief bones also know to listen to the military situation, the secret pile and the meticulous work have already returned the information of the Beijing Division.
Shanxi, Henan and other places have come to take refuge in Beijing, most of them are wealthy, they carry Huaxia Daqian Zhuang bills of exchange, passbooks, see that this year's housing prices in Beijing are not high, decisively buy to settle down.
More than 100,000 or 200,000 people left the capital, and more than 100,000 people entered the capital, among which of course there were many hidden piles of thieves.
The bandit soldiers and bandit leaders of the puppet "Dashun" Dynasty heard that there were nearly one million people in Beijing, and there were so many high-ranking officials and nobles who ate oil and wore silk, and even the small people of Shengdou were able to get food and clothing, and they were itching to bear it.
Huang Sheng's strategic plan for withdrawing from Shanxi, Shaanxi, and Henan has had an effect, and the Central Plains will of course carry out a blockade if they do not leave their own people, and grain will not be transported to the interior; if they are so hungry that they can't do anything, the common people can completely get rid of the "Dashun" and flee along the rivers and along the coast to the "Nanming."
The territory of "Dashun" was not small, and the population was plundered, but unfortunately the seizure of grain and precious metals was very limited.
In the year of the disaster, grain was more expensive than gold, and the shortage of grain in the Central Plains was serious, and Li Duyan was already regretting that he only cared about looting and did not organize production in time; due to the disaster year after year, the landlord's family had no surplus grain, and the thieves and soldiers who robbed the big households could get less and less grain, and there were more and more mouths that needed to eat.
The thieves can only adopt the rationing system when they have no choice, of course, it is not a fair ration, but according to the ration of 369, etc., and the most basic cannon fodder is only able to eat bran and hang on to his life.
And Liu Zongmin, Tian Jianxiu, Niu Jinxing and other high-ranking officials in Dashun are as drunk and obsessed with gold as high-ranking officials in Daming, they are also different from high-ranking officials in Daming, they don't want face at all, they don't even pretend to be pretending, they look extremely vicious, they wantonly hide gold and silver treasures, and sleep with beautiful women every night to be grooms.
It can be seen from this that these scumbags are not revolutionary at all, they just want to pull down the powerful officials and nobles who are powerful on the top of their heads and replace them with them to enjoy glory and wealth.
There is a saying that is very true, the uprising of the rich who have no worries about food and clothing is the revolution, and the peasants who have eaten the last meal but not the next meal are called rebellions.
The rebel leader Li Duyan began to worry, because he estimated that all the food he could collect would definitely not survive the spring of Chongzhen's seventeenth year anyway.
Now that he has established a state and is the emperor, he can't feed and clothe his people, and he can't kill women and children to eat meat as he did at the beginning of the rebellion!
