It was still in the cold of spring, and the ice floes on the water surface of Onozawa did not show any signs of thawing, and a large caravan that was frozen on the shore, in a large cabin with little fire, was the scene of drinking and feasting with cups and plates. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Although in the middle of winter, the frozen pears stored in the pit cellar under the house, the air-dried persimmons, the cranberries soaked in the jar, the vinegared radish seedlings and potato strips, as well as the salted peanuts and edamame pods that have been blown in the fire pit, plus a plate of dried pepper fried lotus root slices, and frozen tofu with white cut and dipping sauce are their best appetizers.

In the words of the Ruan brothers, it is that if you eat too much fish, shrimp and crabs, you are not hungry at all, or you are still yellow and gray rice noodles or water cake paste, which is the most realistic and nourishing. Therefore, a large sift of baked cakes made with shrimp skin fish paste and noodles is their staple food.

The wine is a reed head wine made from reed roots and chestnut rice soil, which is not filtered through the turbid liquor and has a trace of thickness and bitterness;

As a representative of Yunzhou people, he is more prosperous and developed in the Huaizhen system; Several Yunzhou generals led by Song Gongming took advantage of the winter leisure time to accept the hospitality of the villagers who served in the Yunzhou water camp represented by the three Ruan brothers.

Just to avoid suspicion and criticism, it was not placed in the camp or in the restaurant in the city, but on the frozen ship, it was more like an ordinary fireside night talk.

Song Gongming, who has already become a thief arrester and deputy governor of the state, can be regarded as returning to his hometown this time, although his family house in Juye County has long ceased to exist, and the familiar fathers and villagers have long since become outsiders with various accents.

But being able to continue to hear the accent of his hometown and eat the side dishes of his hometown is enough to make Song Gongming, who is in his forties, feel a lot of nostalgia.

Because of the strict screening and screening policy of the Southern Army's entry into the Huai Land, except for a small number of Tuhu who remained in place and showed obedience, only the early batch of old immigrants who had gone through a series of transitional stages and waited for the completion of the test period, as well as the relevant dependents of the army and the government, as well as some people with special skills, could obtain the qualifications and places of origin to live in the cities.

Owning a place of origin in a city not only represents a stable life under the protection of the city walls, but also represents various conveniences and priorities for material rationing, more compulsory education and job opportunities, and even access to the military and government offices.

For ordinary immigrants, the place of origin of the residents of this city is not so easy to obtain.

Unless you make corresponding contributions or accumulate enough excellent performance, or have expertise and characteristics that others do not have, it is possible to end the large collective life in Tunzhuang or industrial and mining ahead of schedule; However, the process in the quarantine camp and the labor field cannot be discounted at all.

Although there are no restrictions on all kinds of comings and goings in the city, as well as all kinds of behaviors in the city to beg for a living, it is another matter to want to settle down here, and under the strict household registration and neighborhood management of the Huai army, there is almost no opportunity for people to take advantage of the loopholes.

Settling in the city does not mean that you can sit back and relax, there are basically no opportunities for idlers and lazy people to survive under the rule of Huaizhen, and in the overall social service system and public facilities, even the elderly and children are no exception; In addition, if they also make mistakes, or are accused of sabotage and laziness, the result of repeated reprimands is to be assigned to remote places and re-accept different degrees of assigned labor.

And Yunzhou is a special case, because some people have joined the Huai army early, and in the later series of attacks, they provided a lot of manpower and material assistance, and later it was operated as a key area in Yanbian, and it was very requisitioned and transferred local personnel and resources.

Therefore, as compensation and return, Yunzhou is also slightly later than the core six states, and gradually liberalizes the relatively strict local military management system, so that these local people have more priority than others in the application and assessment of settling in the city.

This also led to a wave of favorites for local men, and a subsequent wave of marriages with immigrants; Many foreign women are willing to take the initiative to marry local men in Yunzhou to get the opportunity to change the life situation of themselves and their families.

After all, there is a difference between the rationing system in the city and the rationing system at all levels in the suburbs, towns, and villages. Although these ration indicators are generally the same, being in the city because of the gathering and prosperity of all walks of life will undoubtedly give you more convenience and choice near the water.

And Song Gongming has both a military membership and a local background in Yunzhou, in fact, there is no lack of willingness to make him a small warm bed. It's just that after all those betrayals and revenge, he can't make up his mind whether to start a family again.

。。。。。。。。。

On the land of Huainan Province, Li Xianzhong, who had just been transferred from Songzhou, was also inspecting the laborers who were densely packed in the river like ants.

Compared to the snowy northland on the other side of the Huaishui, it can be said that it is warmer, and even the river does not have a few days of freezing period throughout the year, so after crossing the Huaishui, it is like coming to another world.

But standing in the river and silt, it was still cold and almost unbearable, but these laborers shouted one after another, wading bare-chested in the legless mud, digging and carrying the mud, and then cleaning up the debris of the deposited rocks, trees and other debris layer by layer, until the solid and dry sedimentary riverbed was exposed underneath.

Then the wooden stakes are laid near the river bank, and the arriving stones are fixed under the support of the wooden piles, and then the outline of the edge of the embankment is spliced little by little, and then finally poured into the mixed mortar and sand and gravel, and finally solidified into a large piece of hard erection.

After the initial rebuilding of the official road from the south bank of the Huai River to Yangzhou in the north of the Yangtze River, he began to work and organize these foreign laborers to begin to dredge the Cao River in the southern section of Huainan; All of this can only make people vaguely feel that the town marshal's heart and intentions are so big that even a martial artist like him can feel something.

You must know that in the more than 100 years of the Yiwei Rebellion, there have been no feudal towns and local forces that have cleaned up and repaired the Cao Yun system so generously or decently; Even in the heyday of the Northern Dynasties, it seems that some local dredging and tinkering have been done.

And now he vaguely heard that Huaizhen intends to reconnect the main rivers of Hebei, Henan, Huaibei and Huainan into a line of north-south thoroughfare, and this is just one of the construction sites; This couldn't help but make him feel awe and shock, what determination and courage this is.

Only those emperors and prime ministers who were the most peaceful and prosperous in the previous dynasty could do so.

Of course, this thing is not always understood and accepted at the beginning, at the beginning, there were people fleeing almost every day in Huainan, and some people fell down, but now this situation is almost extinct.

On the one hand, there is the terrible execution and desperate control from Huaidi; On the other hand, it was the daunting pot and mule machine that drove the chariots and boats, which dragged a huge amount of supplies from the other side of the Huaishui, including tools and other means of production, as well as grain, cloth, and felt.

With no hope of escape and basic security, these resources, or the involuntary captive aliens, are forced to settle down and be forced to appoint and accept what appears to be endless servitude.

In a sense, these people transported from the south of the Yangtze River are obviously not as hard-working or stoic and obedient as the displaced people in the north, but they really can't stand the large enough number to be completely lost in a certain proportion. (To be continued.) )
