Seeing Zhao Xiaoxi and the others returning safely and escorting the supplies, Yan Lu naturally seemed very happy when he knew that there was a place in this mountain that was enough to reclaim thousands of hectares of fertile land. In this way, some immigrants who arrived in advance have a place to settle.

During this time, as the fleet of ships to Ryukyu Island increased, some people came on the same boat. It is natural to be very happy to see that there is really such a paradise-like place on this overseas desert island.

Just to ensure the stability of Xinnancheng, these people who found their own way to get on the boat were all placed by the household officials in a temporary camp outside the town. Provide them with three meals a day, and also give some young people to find jobs.

In response to their plea to find a place to reclaim the fields like those immigrants, Cho Hyo-seok ordered to refuse. Even many immigrants can only visit a few villages not far from the outskirts of the city under the guidance of household officials.

Seeing these immigrants who moved in the early years, the fields that have been reclaimed now really belong to them. Only a certain amount of tax is required to be paid each season, and the rest of the grain can be stored or sold.

In the face of such a good thing, these people, who are forced to make a living overseas, naturally want to enjoy such treatment. However, in response to their pleas, the household officials said that the new southern city no longer arranges new immigrants.

If they want to enjoy the same treatment as immigrants, they have to choose to go somewhere else. As for where this place is, the immigrants don't know too well. I can only complain, why didn't I come here two years in advance!

If they had moved here ahead of schedule, wouldn't all these high-quality paddy fields belong to their families? With these fields, they can be passed on from generation to generation.

Forced by the increase in the number of immigrants, Yan Lu can only say that he can arrange as soon as possible in the face of those immigrants who plead. Now I know. Cho Hyo-seok personally inspected this place, and naturally wanted to come and see it in person.

Facing Yan Lu's eagerness, Zhao Xiaoxi smiled and said, "Lord Yan, don't worry. This matter will be resolved tomorrow, and I will find a piece in the mountain. A good place to cultivate thousands of hectares of fertile land.

It's just that it's still a bit barren, and if you want to reclaim it, you have to build a village first. Wait for you to go back with me and put this matter into practice. In the early stage, bring 1,000 immigrants to settle down, and don't rush them to reclaim the fields.

The village was built first, and the road leading to it was built to establish a permanent supply depot. As long as the preliminary work is done well, I promise you later. It's just that there are too few immigrants. ”

Regarding Zhao Xiaoxi's words, Yan Lu naturally did not have any doubts. And next, Zhao Xiaoxi said to Li Yuncong: "Yuncong, this camp is temporarily reserved, and a team of 100 people will be arranged to live here." Alternatively, bring in a few small boats, if you can.

This river can be fully utilized. When there is a boat ferry, it will be in and out of plain time in the future. It can also save a lot. Only the road next to the river must also be built. At the very least, it can be easily accessed by vehicles.

This camp is in a good location, and the supplies transported from Xinnancheng in the future can be stacked here. Then inform the immigrants of the plains to place the materials here and move them inside, and this camp will temporarily serve as a transit point. ”

Li Yuncong for this order. Naturally, there will be no refusal. Anyway, the two hundred-man teams will not cause much loss to the forces currently under his control.

After arranging these things, Zhao Xiaoxi said to Mu Wanqing and the others: "Qing'er, you come with me." Take these things with you to three villages. Sending these things to those remnants of the Tang Dynasty is a part of the king's heart.

Since they are reluctant to move out of here, their existing land will be registered by the Ministry of Households in the future. As compensation, these old fields can be exempted from tax in the future.

If in the future they cultivate new land, they will have to pay taxes in the same way as immigrants. In short, this piece of land is what the king wants. From now on, they will also be the people under the king's rule! ”

On the way here, Yan Lu also heard from the soldiers about the three villages of the remnants of the Tang Dynasty. Since they are unwilling to relocate to New South City, Zhao Xiaoxi will not force it. As long as they obey the law, then Cho Hyo-seok will not treat them badly.

As the soldiers entered the village again, Wang Zhan, the patriarch of Wang Village, was also startled. Wait until Zhao Xiaoxi said: "Patriarch Wang, this is the head of the household department of this king, and you will live here in the future, and you will need to report anything to Lord Yan."

Originally, I wanted to move you to New South City, but you were reluctant to leave here, and the king was not strong. Your villages and cultivated fields will not be encroached upon by the king, but the new fields that will be cultivated in the future must be taxed according to the regulations.

Some specific decrees will be announced to you by officials at that time. And what this king wants to say is that in the future, there will be countless immigrants who will be relocated behind your village, and you are not allowed to oppress these new immigrants, understand? ”

Hearing that new immigrants had moved in, Wang Zhan immediately said: "The grass people understand that in the future, the villagers must be restrained and must not make trouble at will. Thank you for understanding the hardships of the grass people, and the grass people thank the prince for his kindness on behalf of the Wang family. ”

For Wang Zhan's thanks, Zhao Xiaoxi waved his hand and said: "Okay, whether this king is good or bad, you will know when you contact the king's officials in the future." Now, call out all the villagers of your Wangjia Village, regardless of men, women, and children! ”

Wang Zhan, who didn't understand what to do, looked a little scared. And at this time, Mu Wanqing stepped forward and said with a smile: "Uncle Wang, don't be afraid, we have no ill will towards you." The prince's move is something for the people of Wang Village! ”

Wang Zhan, who was worried by Mu Wanqing, saw Zhao Xiaoxi snort coldly, and he didn't dare to hesitate. All the people in the village were called to the grain field. At such times, I dare not hide anything.

Looking at the women who had hid in earlier, most of the animal skins on their bodies only covered important parts. Mu Wanqing and others, who are women, can also understand that these women are afraid that life here is not good.

With Zhao Xiaoxi's nod, Yan Lu stood up and said: "This official is Yan Lu, the head of the household department of Xinnan City, and you will all be the people under the rule of the prince in the future." In view of your situation, the prince specially mobilized materials from New South City to improve your life.

Now the young people of the village will come out to receive the clothes and rewards. You need to remember that this is the prince's kindness to you, and you must not live up to the prince's good intentions. Line up one by one and come over to get your stuff! ”

Hearing Yan Lu's words, he saw that the bags beside those soldiers were full of clothes and shoes. These people in Wangjia Village also understand what a luxury this is. After all, there aren't many people in their village who can wear clothes.

Each young person who receives something needs to report their name and age. Then the soldiers are issued two sets of clothes and shoes according to their height and weight, which can be regarded as population registration in advance.

As long as the population is registered, the household department will issue household registration cards to these villagers. In the future, when they travel, they need to show their ID cards. If the household registration card is lost, it must be replaced by the head of the village who goes to the place of the household department.

The advantage of this is that some unknown people will not be allowed to infiltrate the village. Although the effect is not too large, there is this kind of household registration system, which is also more convenient for the household department to count the number and classification of the people under the rule.

When Qingzhuang took his clothes and stood aside with a thousand thanks, the other villagers also received their things one after another. Looking at the shoes and clothes in their hands, many villagers shed tears of excitement.

Compared to Zhao Xiaoxi and the others when they came in, these villagers were afraid to resist the eyes when they left. Zhao Xiaoxi enjoyed the treatment of the whole village kneeling. After all, they really haven't heard much of such a benevolent ruler.

Zhao Xiaoxi, who left Wangjia Village, led the team to another Zhoujiazhuang. For the people of this village, they also gave a lot of grace, and finally Yan Lu distributed the materials on their behalf.

Finally, when they came to Liujia Village, the most populous village, the people of Liucun who had already received the news looked very excited on their faces. It seems that I also want to get the reward issued by this prince as soon as possible. These people are more anxious for clothes than for money and food.

After the things were distributed, when Zhao Xiaoxi left Liujia Village, he said to Liu Zhengyuan very seriously: "Patriarch Liu, have you seen it?" These are two simple garments, and if you don't have the king's reward, when will you be able to put them on?

You are worried that outsiders will disturb your life, and it is good for you to protect yourself. But as the patriarch, are you willing to watch the village fall? Today, this king left, hoping to come again next time, and no longer see this kind of naked beast clothes of the villagers, can he do it? ”

Liu Zhengyuan, who was reprimanded, also felt Zhao Xiaoxi's kindness, and said very honestly: "Please rest assured, the grass people will definitely tell the villagers well and not cause trouble to the prince and the government." Thank you for the reward! ”

In the face of Liu Zhengyuan, a somewhat old feudal patriarch, Zhao Xiaoxi also knew that he would not be able to change his concept for a while. But Cho Hyo-seok believes that with the relocation of new immigrants, they will understand what life is.

When the problem of food and clothing is satisfied, I believe that the young people in these remnant villages will also want to pursue a better life. At that time, even if these old people abide by the ancestral teachings, I believe that they will not be able to restrain the younger generation in the village.

As long as young people change their minds, these remnants will be given a new lease of life. Otherwise, if they follow the old tradition and pass it on from generation to generation, their final result will be to be eliminated by the times.

Regardless, Cho Hyo-seok did what he could. As for what kind of lifestyle these remnants will choose in the future, Zhao Xiaoxi will not force anything.

After all, these remnants of the Tang Dynasty add up to less than a thousand. As soon as new immigrants begin to relocate, I believe they will also understand the importance of integrating into the population. It would be easier to wait until they change their mindset and then guide them. (To be continued......)
