When the first batch of migrants were transferred from Taiwan to Nanyang, Nanyang officials immediately began to investigate. Then many people were given land and began to cultivate happily. They vented that the climate here in Nanyang is warm, the land is relatively fertile, and they can even grow three crops of rice a year! This suddenly made those who had no land in the country overjoyed, and the resentment that they had been forced to come at the beginning was gone, and then they began to prepare to cultivate, after all, many of these lands can catch oil, and such fertile land is really profitable.

However, at the same time, there are some problems, and they are very strict.

"Lord Wang, less than a day after the immigrants arrived, there was a big conflict between our Lanfang locals and those immigrants from outside, and our Lanfang Garrison Department, well, that is, our Lanfang Provincial Security Department, received fifty or sixty complaints in one day." Liu Fuyan, director of the Lanfang Garrison Department, said.

This Liu Fuyan was valued by Wang Guorui because he opposed the British coming to Lanfang before, although he was a member of the Liu family, but since he was able to gain a foothold in the national righteousness, it can also be reused as appropriate. And he was also promoted from a "Minister of Agriculture" with no real power to the Minister of Security, responsible for local law and order issues. As a result, he had just taken office, and the immigrants from the mainland had caused a lot of contradictions, which made him, the minister of security, have a headache. These immigrants are all from the mainland, and they are all fellow villagers from Wang Guorui, so it's not easy for him, the head of the garrison, to deal with it without authorization, so they have to come over and ask Wang Guorui for instructions.

"What's going on? Fifty or sixty reports a day, ten times more than in the past! Wang Guorui exclaimed.

After immigrating here, the crime rate has increased by more than ten times, which is simply terrifying. What is the matter with these immigrants, and how much conflict they have with the locals?

Liu Fuyan immediately said: "Lord Wang, I really have a sentence, I don't know whether to say it or not!" ”

"Say it!" Wang Guorui said.

"Lord Wang, to put it mildly, what kind of stuff did you get from China! Undisciplined. And for the local people to eat and take cards, and often harass the local people. We, the local people of Lanfang, are very disgusted, and even have the idea of resisting immigrants! This gang of immigrants. It's just too bad. Liu Fuyan said.

Wang Guorui frowned, obviously feeling a little helpless. Wang Guorui soon held a meeting to discuss the work of these immigrants.

"Guys, we didn't think it through, so we found out that these immigrants have a lot of garbage. Our first immigrants. They all cooperated with the domestic government, and then forcibly pulled those beggars and criminals in prisons over, without much consideration for the immigration component. And now we have found a huge problem, first of all, those beggars can be solved, after all, those beggars are still more eager for land, and they are willing to cultivate it after they have land. But there are also some beggars, who have been beggars for a long time, and have lost the ability to work as before, and they have become accustomed to begging for a living, so they have become lazy. And these guys beg for a long time. It has become extremely slippery, and it is also very rude and shameless, which is very damaging to the local law and order. ”

"As for the other part, it was directly taken out of the prison cells on the mainland. Although there are many unjust prisons on the mainland, generally speaking, there are still more criminals in prisons and fewer kind people. There are a lot of criminals in the prison, and now they are brought here, and once they are released, they will also be a very huge challenge to our law and order here. They weren't good birds, and many of them were members of the Heaven and Earth Society, Hongmen and so on. Many of them are lazy and lazy, and they are good at harming the people. But when it comes to production and life, they have lost the ability to produce and live, and they are all refined and live by extortion and robbery. Such people are very difficult to educate. If you want education back, it costs a lot. If you want education back, it obviously feels like it's worth the loss. ”

"Also, if we don't solve the problem of these guys, then I'm afraid the local people will be very resistant to those immigrants. After all, a single rat poop can spoil a pot of soup, and if all these immigrants do. It's easy to make the local people hate these immigrants. When the time comes, they will resist all immigration, and this will also be a split within us Chinese, so this problem must be solved. ”

And Wang Guorui's little wife and female secretary Kang Tongwei immediately said: "Lord Wang, this is something we didn't think about, we didn't expect that the mainland officials would get people directly from the prison cell, and directly arrest beggars." It's not worth our money! We spent a lot of money and just got some of these things back, and it wasn't worth it. ”

Everyone felt that it was not worth the money, after all, those Manchu officials directly sent people to the streets to arrest beggars, ruffians and gangsters and those bastards in prisons, and in the end, many scum would be sent to Nanyang. And those Manchu officials in China, one by one, are also pit goods, they took the opportunity to drive those socially unstable dìng elements to Nanyang, and pushed this burden to Wang Guorui, and they can still get money, which is simply killing two birds with one stone. But now Wang Guorui wants to eat this bitter fruit for them, which is obviously not very pleasant. But now that the wood is in the boat, everyone must find a way to solve this problem, otherwise there will be a big mess.

"But we are really in a bit of a dilemma, the quality of these guys has deteriorated a lot, and if they are asked to work honestly, then not many of them are willing to do so. These guys are good at robbery and extortion, and many of them are second and third palaces, and many of them have even been punished by the government in the mainland. Although we don't agree with the level of discipline in the Manchus, they have not been able to educate them well so many times, and it is obvious that these guys are very difficult to educate. Then we are willing to educate, but the cost is too high. If you have this opportunity, you might as well recruit more hard-working people. ”

But Wang Guorui immediately said: "This time, I really can't completely blame the guys on the mainland, if they mobilize those ordinary people to immigrate, if the ordinary people don't say whether they are willing to come to such a far place, then the ordinary people probably won't be willing." But it is impossible for the officials on the mainland to force them to come, and if a large number of arrests are made, it will definitely cause a popular uprising. So they chose to arrest those ruffian criminals, and I understand them on this. These criminals and ruffians are the best good things that can solve the local security problem and win the hearts and minds of the people. So, if we had this kind of thing, we would have done the same. ”

"But what to do, then we have to solve it! If it is not resolved, it will cause conflicts between immigrants and local people, and then it will not be a good thing for the locals to make trouble! Kang Tongwei said helplessly again.

And everyone is silent, these criminal-born guys are too difficult to teach, they are used to doing evil to gain benefits, and naturally they will not be willing to live an ordinary life again. It's like a veteran who has fought a lifetime of war, once he retires to the locality, then all he learns in the army are those "dragon slaying techniques" that kill people, and he doesn't know those civilian livelihood skills at all, and once they retire from the army, it is almost equivalent to being unemployed. And they're used to killing people, and it's too hard to convert.

The same is true of this ruffian criminal, they are used to getting something for nothing, and they are all used to killing and looting to gain benefits, and it is too difficult for them to change suddenly. So now they are also in a situation where they feel helpless, and if they are asked to work, they have not lost their ability to work. Even if Taiwan is willing to teach them, they may not be willing to learn. It's a matter of mentality, not a matter of ability. The nature of the country is easy to change, and it is too difficult to educate them well.

"Let's think of a way together, hold a Zhuge Liang meeting, and see if everyone has any good ways to solve these problems!" Wang Guorui said.

"Hmph, aren't they just these ruffians? The old lady has a way! Tanya said.

"Well, Tanya, what do you have to do?" Wang Guorui asked.

"Actually, we can form mercenaries and let them help us fight!" Tanya said.

"What? Mercenary? Wang Guorui exclaimed.

And everyone looked at each other, obviously not expecting Tanya to say such an extreme method. Let them form some mercenaries and go to help Taiwan in the war? This is simply unbelievable, because in traditional Chinese thinking, the military and other armed forces must be in the hands of the government, and private individuals cannot control them. And these officials also knew what mercenaries were during this time, so of course they knew that mercenaries were also outlaws, and then they asked for money and didn't want to die. And they have no discipline, as long as they give them money, they will also help you in the war. And this is definitely a factor of social instability, which China has to crack down on since ancient times, but Tanya actually took the initiative to say this, which was simply surprising to them.

If it weren't for Tanya's strong martial arts and fierce combat effectiveness, everyone would have started questioning Tanya a long time ago, even if she was Wang Guorui's woman.

"Tanya, is there anything to say?" Wang Guorui asked. (To be continued.) )
