The scale of this immigration is not large, mainly experimental nature, among which Coconut City is the experimental place of this immigration, first move 5,000 people here, and then see the effect, if it is good, then it is likely to increase some immigration efforts. It is precisely because of this that this immigration seems to be a bit hasty, and even Coconut City did not come in time to notify, and when Li Yong's ship arrived, Xu Jingzong and these people knew that the imperial court had sent them a group of Americans as residents.

"Your Majesty has taken our place as a pilot, but five thousand Americans have migrated over at once, and it is not easy to arrange the lives of these people!" Xu Jingzong looked at the fleet that slowly sailed into the port, and said with a wry smile.

When he heard that the imperial court had sent a group of immigrants, he was happy for a long time, but he was soon told that these immigrants were actually Native Americans, which made him suddenly turn from joy to sadness. Although these Americans are already proficient in Chinese, their living habits are completely different from those of the Han Chinese, and it is a very difficult task to fully integrate them into the life of Coconut City.

Hearing Xu Jingzong's complaint, Li Yifu next to him also sighed helplessly: "Don't complain, Lord Assassin, let's come to Daqi to receive some exercise, and Your Majesty has already said that no matter what kind of hard work and tiring work in the future, he will give priority to us, no, the hard work is finally here!" ”

Xu Jingzong could only show a helpless wry smile after hearing this, but he thought that if he could do a good job in Daqi, then after returning to Datang, he would be able to be reused immediately, and it was even possible to take over the position of the eldest grandson Wuji. This made his heart also hot, and at the same time, he regained some energy.

"Huh? The officers who got off the warship. It seems to be a small county king? "At this moment, the migrant fleet has entered the port and stopped. Then the people on the boat began to disembark one after another. Li Yifu's eyes were better, and he saw Li Yong who had just jumped off the boat at a glance. Li Yong's father is the king of Hejian County, although Li Yong is not the eldest son of the concubine and cannot inherit his father's title, but people who know him generally call him the king of the small county.

"Little county king? Which little county king? "Xu Jingzong is old, his eyes are not very good, and there are not a few county kings in the Tang Dynasty, not to mention that there are many small county kings, but there are also hundreds. Therefore, he really didn't know who the little county king in Li Yifu's mouth was referring to.

At this time, Li Yifu grabbed Xu Jingzong, and said while rushing to Li Yong's side: "Which other small county king, naturally the little county king of the Hejian Palace, when His Majesty was still the king of Qi, I often saw His Majesty and the little county king eating and living together, and now I haven't seen it for many years, but I didn't expect the little county king to come to Daqi." ”

Xu Jingzong understood when he heard this, and his feet sped up a little, and at the same time, he also had a warm smile on his face. He may not know other small county kings. But who is Li Yong, his father Li Xiaogong is a veteran on the same level as Li Jing, and Li Yong himself is a big player with Li Su, and the two can be said to be iron buddies. Therefore, whether it is Datang or Daqi, Li Yong is a person worthy of attention.

"The little county king has always been good, Xu is so polite!" Xu Jingzong only found out when he approached. Li Yong was wearing a navy uniform, and he looked like he was only a captain. It is lower than his level of assassination, but Xu Jingzong does not dare to hold it up. did not meet with the rules of officialdom, but greeted Li Yong as a private person in the conversation. Li Yifu next to him is also a personal essence, so naturally he also saluted Li Yong together.

I haven't seen him for a few years, Li Yong didn't recognize Xu Jingzong at first, after all, the two didn't have much contact at the beginning, but he recognized Li Yifu at a glance, after all, when he was engaged in cement and coal, he didn't deal with Li Yifu less, and then he remembered that Li Yifu and Xu Jingzong were working together in the patent department, and then he suddenly remembered who the person in front of him who called himself 'Xu Mou'.

I saw Li Yong hurriedly clasped his fists and returned the salute with a smile: "It turned out to be Lord Xu and Master Li, I haven't seen each other for many years, but the demeanor of the two adults is still the same, and the temperament is becoming more and more stable." ”

Hearing Li Yong's praise, Xu Jingzong and Li Yifu also hurriedly said a few polite words, and when Li Yong learned that Xu Jingzong was the assassin of West Java and was also in charge of the government affairs of Coconut City, he smiled and said: "I didn't expect that Lord Xu was already a feudal official of one side, speaking of which, in this migration, I met an American family, and I will have to get rid of Lord Xu to take care of it in the future!" ”

"Where did the little county king come from, Your Majesty moved these Americans to our coconut city, that is, the people of Coconut City, as a thorn history, Xu naturally wants to seek welfare for them, but please rest assured that the little county king!" Xu Jingzong solemnly assured that although he wanted to tell Li Yong directly that he would definitely take good care of the family he had entrusted, there were some things in the officialdom that could not be said too thoroughly, otherwise it would be easy to fall into the hands of others.

Although Li Yong is a military general, he also knows some rules in officialdom, so he immediately understands after hearing it. At this time, Thea's family also stepped off the boat, and Li Yong immediately pulled her over and said, "Thea, this is your future parent official, you can call him Uncle Xu!" ”

Thea was also very well-behaved, and immediately showed a sweet smile and saluted Xu Jingzong: "Hello Uncle Xu!" ”

Xu Jingzong didn't expect Li Yong to directly let this little American girl call him uncle, this person is very favorable, if something happens to the little girl in the future, he has to help if he doesn't want to. However, since it is Li Yong's favor, Xu Jingzong is also willing to take it, after all, whether it is in Datang or Daqi in the future, he will not worry about finding an opportunity to let Li Yong return the favor.

At that moment, Xu Jingzong also made a cordial gesture, first made a few jokes with Thea, and then comforted Thea's parents a few words, so that they could rest assured that they would live in Coconut City, and that he had already prepared a house and food for them, and he would be able to arrange a job for them to earn money to support their families tomorrow.

The Americans who came down from the ship naturally had the staff of the port to receive them, and after everyone got off the ship, Li Yifu organized people to bring these more than 5,000 people to the square in front of the Assassin's Mansion, and then Xu Jingzong spoke again, the content was similar to what he said to Thea's parents before, it was nothing more than to let these people live in peace, and there must be infinitely better days waiting for them in the future.

After such a long voyage, Li Yong and his navy naturally had to rest in Coconut City before going back. That night, Xu Jingzong held a banquet in the mansion, accompanied by Li Yifu, not only Li Yong, but also several captains of other warships, as well as other important people in the fleet.

Speaking of the ushering and sending in the officialdom, this situation has become a routine in the officialdom of Datang and Daqi, and no one can avoid it. However, the cost of a banquet is not a small amount, although the officials of Daqi and Datang are relatively rich, but except for some officials from rich and noble families, it is difficult for other officials with ordinary family conditions to withstand this kind of expenses, if this goes on for a long time, it is likely to force those officials to embezzle.

Originally, Li Su wanted to prohibit this kind of wind of ushering in and sending him, but later Wang An admonished him that this kind of atmosphere has been in the Central Plains for a long time, and it is not so easy to eradicate, if it is forcibly banned, it may have some effect at first, but after a long time, I am afraid that the implementation of this decree will still be relaxed, so that not only will it not achieve the effect, but it will also form a blow to the majesty of the imperial court.

So in the end, Wang An suggested that it is better to block than to be sparse, and the cost can be set to death according to the level of the official, such as how much it costs to receive a first-grade official, and how much is the second-grade official, and after eating, the received official must be signed, and then put together with the accounts, and every year there will be an inspector of the Inspectorate who is responsible for investigating and collecting evidence.

The Inspectorate is a judicial body independent of the executive branch, and the inspectors in it are not only familiar with the law, but also trained in auditing, and some people even joke that even if someone from the Inspectorate is not an official, he can become a sought-after bookkeeper. It's just that because of the particularity of the inspector's job, all the inspectors have a straight face when they work, so the people in the officialdom call them the black-faced Hades behind their backs.

Xu Jingzong was in charge of entertaining important figures such as Li Yong, and as for Thea, who had just arrived in Coconut City, the Americans, were also warmly received by local officials.

Five thousand Americans is not a small number, in addition to the crew and naval soldiers in the fleet, the population of Coconut City is not large, and there are no decent restaurants in the city, so in the end the officials in the city have to organize all the people in the city who can cook, these people are mainly the families of officials and port workers, and let them help cook for the time being, otherwise they will not be able to entertain at all.

Speaking of which, the cooking skills of these family members are good and bad, and the same is shredded green vegetables and meat, and the taste of different people is very different. Fortunately, these Americans are not very picky eaters, and they have been on the ship for so long, they have not been able to eat fresh vegetables, and they usually feel extremely happy to eat a bowl of rice, not to mention that there are so many dishes today, so when eating, these Americans are complimenting their families for the deliciousness of the dishes.

However, this also led to a bad consequence, that is, some women who were originally very bad at cooking, usually did not dare to cook and show ugliness, but now they are praised by others, and they immediately feel that their self-confidence is inflated, and they return home to cook for their husbands and children themselves, which makes these victims feel that life is worse than death.

After Thea and the others had eaten, they were immediately led to a residential area in the city, where some simple houses were built, which were originally prepared for the people who had moved here, but because of the haste in the preparation, the bedding was not enough at all. Fortunately, the weather in Java is hot, and you can sleep on the ground with a mat, so you don't have to worry about catching a cold, but many Americans can't sleep because of the Javanese mosquitoes.

Originally, Xu Jingzong wanted to let the newly arrived Americans rest in the city for a few days, and at the same time, he also took this opportunity to think about how to arrange these Americans? But early the next morning, he was forced to settle these Americans in advance! (To be continued......)
