Hu Erjia's subordinate Zhang Shun said: "Lord Hu, are we not a prophet to visit Qingzhou Mansion, after all, we are tired of traveling and driving, and adults are also hard, it is better to rest for one night at the Qingzhou Mansion Post Station first, and then go tomorrow." Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo”

Hu Erjia is also a young master, and he can't endure any hardships, although it is not far from Jinan to Qingzhou, but Hu Erjia is very happy, thinking that he is a person from a military region, how can Qingzhou Mansion be a good hospitality. And it was still early before his uncle explained, Hu Erjia was not in a hurry, so he simply nodded and took a group of people to Qingzhou Mansion to pay a visit.

Qingzhou Mansion, the current local government does not care about the case, and the judicial sentences belong to the Dali Yuan, so the general government affairs of the government are relatively small, mainly to coordinate the work of various departments, of course, anything can also be managed.

Liang Chunxing arched his hand towards his master, Shi Yide, and said with a little eagerness: "Master Shi, there are people from the provincial military region, this is for the sake of our Qingzhou Mansion conscription, although it seems that the person is a second ancestor who has not grown up, but he can't make any moths." ”

The master was not an official before the new policy, at most he was a close person before the big official, and his power was not small. However, after the New Deal, due to the abolition of a series of funds such as the maintenance of incorruptible silver, and the reform of the official system, there are no idlers in the government who do not have the status of serious civil servants and specialize in helping errands. The existence of the master, in today's quality is still not high, according to the Tang Dynasty, he is actually a role such as the mayor's secretary, speaking on behalf of the prefect, without real power but with influence.

Shi Yide nodded and said: "Treat them well first, if they want to spend time in Qingzhou Mansion, then follow them, but you must be optimistic, you can't let them go to the villages and towns below to see, you and I know what the situation is below." Even if that captain is a second ancestor, he will know what is going on after seeing the situation. ”

Liang Chunxing nodded and said, "Understood, I'll do it." ”

These two people are grasshoppers on a rope, and they are both Qingzhou Mansion officials who take the benefits of the Tang people. Qingzhou Mansion is the capital of Shandong Province, which is the focus of the Datang Immigration Bureau, and is an important location for Datang immigrants. A series of officials in charge of immigration affairs or other related affairs in the Qingzhou government. Basically, it was bought out by the Datang Immigration Bureau. They have a false identity in the Datang China Special Administrative Region, and they also have a bank account, and every year the Datang Immigration Bureau deposits a considerable amount of money. The prefect of Qingzhou is a literati who has little ability, and prefers to chant poetry against him, and he has no practical work. was also played by a group of people below, Shi Yide relied on his identity as a master, and deceived Liang Chunxing and a group of people to open up the situation in Qingzhou Mansion well.

Of course, this is good for the Tang people.

Due to the proper publicity work, and some locals who emigrated in the early years returned to their hometowns to visit their relatives and pay respects to their ancestors. Qingzhou people basically have a concept, that is, they live a better life in Datang. Although you will not be poor or hungry locally, it is obvious that when you go to Datang, it is a life of being a master. Not to mention having land and land, and the status and treatment of the Tang people in the Qing Dynasty as superior to others also made some people rush to it.

Although the immigration subsidy standard of the Tang people has not been improved for so many years, and each person is still about 20 silver dollars for settling-in allowance, it is very attractive to many people. In fact, because the Tang Yuan had been decoupled from gold and silver currency, and the Tang people consciously hit the price of silver. In fact, the value of 20 silver dollars now is much less than the value of 20 silver dollars more than a decade ago. Some immigrants after arriving in North America. 20 silver dollars were found unspent. Therefore, Datang also provides interest-free help loans for new immigrants, so that when they first arrive in Datang, they can live a normal life and survive the transition period. Naturally, not everyone is willing to take on a debt as soon as they arrive in North America, and almost no people who go to Datang are penniless. If you immigrate with your family, you will basically have some savings or something.

Qingzhou people, especially those in the countryside. During these years, there has been a lot of immigration. Many people even sold their fields and houses and went abroad with their wives and children. The direct consequence is that the price of land in Qingzhou is less than half of what it was ten years ago, and many people are in a hurry to sell their fields and wait to go to sea, but no one takes over. In addition, there is a shortage of labor, and Shandong is an area with a relatively large proportion of homesteaders. It was difficult for landlords to find tenants during this period, and the relationship between supply and demand had changed. Finally, there is a serious loss of population in many villages and towns.

In fact, Guangdong has always been the most fierce province for immigrating to the Tang Dynasty, such as some areas where the Hakka people gather, there are ten rooms and nine empty cases, and more than 2 million people in Guangdong's population of about 15 million have immigrated to North America. Shandong's population is about 20 million, and there are also regional differences in immigration, and some places are only sporadic phenomena to go abroad, while some villages and towns in Qingzhou Prefecture have become a fashion.

In fact, the conscription of the Qing army is dissatisfied every year, and it is already the consensus of many people that good iron does not nail good men and not soldiers. Especially after the Qing army reformed the military system, there was no such thing as military households, and the difficulty of conscription naturally increased. Although the New Deal even abolished conscription, and military service was paid, ordinary children were reluctant to join the army. In many areas, if the government's military service ticket goes to someone's house, although there will be no self-harm and physical evasion of military service, many people go directly to the local Datang immigration office, go through the immigration procedures, and immediately go abroad. For those who signed up temporarily, the Datang Immigration Office could not arrange for them to be sent to the port in time, and many people even went directly to some ports such as Qingdao and Shanghai to buy ferry tickets to go to the sea.

This kind of behavior is also encouraged, independent immigration action, as long as Aigang is signed by the immigration bureau and customs, after arriving in North America, it still enjoys full immigration treatment, and the Datang Immigration Bureau and other government agencies provide housing, subsidies, job training and employment. On the one hand, this also saves the official capacity of the Datang Immigration Bureau, and also saves a lot of trouble.

However, this was a net loss for the Qing state, and the soldiers were never recruited, so many Qing soldiers were actually forcibly detained for overtime service. This situation naturally attracted the attention of the imperial court, although Jiaqing did not know exactly what the reason was, but he still instructed the military regions below to strengthen their efforts, and there was a scene where Hu Ertai ordered Hu Erjia to personally go to the lower state capitals and villages and towns to implement the conscription affairs.
