Overall, Huang Jiancheng is very satisfied with these people* They are all young and middle-aged men with strong bodies, "full of body and not bad mind", and can master the necessary skills after a little training. To read the latest chapters, please lock in Aishang Novel Network biquge.info in his plan, in which this group of people will be sent to the Shiroku Iron Mine to perform the most arduous ore mining work.Although the Shiroku Mine is a relatively rare high-grade open-pit mine, it is still very hard to achieve large-scale mining under the technical conditions of this era, and it is still quite dangerous, and it is not easy to find people by voluntary recruitment. That is, these stick boys who have committed crimes and have strong thoughts of atonement are the most suitable.

As for their future, the period of atonement for their sins was clearly negotiated with Pang Yu when he singled them out, with a slight increase or decrease according to their status in the rebels. The work will definitely be hard, but when the time comes, you will be able to recover yourself, and at the same time, you will not be guilty of anything, and at most five years later, you will be a flat-headed ordinary people, and your family and children will not be implicated.

When Huang Jiancheng came to his side, he told them about the new preferential measures, and during the period when they worked in the mines, their families could also be allocated to fields and houses like ordinary immigrants, and the location was around the iron mines, as long as they worked honestly during the "period of atonement", after which the land and houses would be officially allocated to them. If the table is good, you can also go home to see it every New Year's holiday and share the joy of family with your family.

Huang Jiancheng's preaching is simple and simple, there is nothing vain, and all of them are policies that can be seen and touched. As soon as his speech ended, it caused a huge cheer in this crowd. Rather than the strict laws and increased surveillance of the spies, the people on the industrial side are more inclined to use practical chains of interest and emotional sincerity to gain a sense of belonging to these immigrants, even if they were once rebels.

Of course, there must be necessary precautions, but they will not be too large.

The time of this porridge meal was very short, but after eating this meal, the mentality of these new immigrants has changed greatly, while Huang Jiancheng is promoting policies to the former rebel group here, Wu Nanhai is not idle, and there are also various preferential conditions for a large number of Xinding agricultural groups that are about to be subsumed under his agricultural group. While those people were drinking porridge and resting," preached one by one.

In addition to the promised that each household could be allocated a certain number of acres of land free of charge, Wu Nanhai also showed them a housing model of a centralized village, which cannot be regarded as a model, because it is a one-to-one physical object, and everyone can go in to see it, and it may be more appropriate to say that it is a model house.

This prefabricated wooden overhead house is rich in the stilted buildings of the local ethnic minorities, and focuses on the unity of material specifications and the convenience of assembly, and the whole is assembled with wood and plates, "only a few places need masonry masonry to lay the foundation." It was built very quickly, a staff demonstrated on the spot, and it took only a small time to build the model room that was originally in the state of parts, and then paved the interior and exterior decorations, and the roof was waterproof...... After a while, a beautiful little house appeared in front of everyone.

For the sake of hygiene and fire prevention, the kitchen and toilet are separate from the wooden house and will be set up in the village, so this small house only has a residential function. However, the bedroom and living room are still simply divided to meet the different needs of private and communal activities. The house is not large, and it is considered by a small family, but because the space division is extremely compact and reasonable, a pair of parents with a few children and the elderly can live very comfortably in front of it. For the vast majority of people in this era, it is the first time they have seen this kind of apartment that divides the space according to the use function. And it's so simple and easy to build, everyone gathered in a circle, full of curiosity to walk around the house to see, the four walls of the model house have been removed, you can directly see the inside, "you can also go in and walk through" to feel the sense of space in the house.

When they heard that the "Committee of Agriculture," which was in charge of managing themselves, would give all the families a set of materials for such small dwellings, and would send people to assist in the construction of them, so that within a day or two everyone would be able to live in such small huts, which were far more comfortable than tents, and the "Committee of Agriculture" also easily won the hearts and minds of these immigrants, and its effect was far stronger than Wang Pu's hoarse shouting of the patriotic slogan of loyalty to the monarch for a long time just now.

The additional settling-in gifts that the "Industrial Committee" sent to each family were the ecstatic gifts of seven iron tools: an iron plowshare, an axe that doubled as a hammer, a multi-purpose short knife with serrations on one side, an iron pot "a pair of scissors, a kitchen knife", and a pack of ten sewing needles of various specifications.

When this set of things was taken out, the eyes of those immigrants immediately moistened, and in this era, most ordinary families pay attention to self-sufficiency: they grow their own food, eat their own fabrics, weave their own clothes, build their own houses, and "build their own furniture, and even the wasteland can be opened by themselves...... Only these iron tools can't be solved by themselves, so they can only be bought with money. But in troubled times, the blacksmith must all serve the military, and even the iron pot at home will be robbed, and there is no place to buy these things if you have money.

At present, these immigrants have left their homes, and those who are in better conditions can still take a few household belongings with them, and those who are in poor conditions are left alive, although they promise to divide the house and land after arriving here, but these metal tools are indispensable to really rebuild the family.

This kind of iron products may be inconspicuous in one or two pieces, but it is not a small amount to buy several pieces", for the refugees who are still alone, "it was originally estimated that there would not be a year or two to solve it." The key is that with these things, whether it is cultivating wasteland, or hunting to supplement the family, or making home-made zuò sewing clothes, or even making new furniture, as long as you have a pair of hard-working hands, you can do it all!

When the new immigrants "lined up door to door" as a family unit to receive these "settling gifts" from Xiao Lang, Li Jingcheng and others, many people were excited with tears on their faces, plus a house that can block the wind and rain, a piece of land that can grow things, it won't take long for them to rebuild their homes" It is really an out-and-out "settling gift".

Wang Pu and Wang Jieshan watched Shorthair so blatantly buy people's hearts on the sidelines, and his face was a little depressed: "In his opinion, everything Shorthair does should be done in the name of the Ming Dynasty." When assigning land to immigrants, because he was specifically watching, and the whole island of Hainan was still under the Ming Dynasty after all, it was finally in the name of the Ming Dynasty. It's just a wooden house, and he can't take care of things like iron, but he can't put his beak in it, "After all, Shorthair took it out of his own pocket."

It's just that there is inevitably some dissatisfaction in my heart, what "agricultural committee" and "industrial committee", you just come to the "government", don't you just do it! Anyway, Shorthair has long been blatantly exercising the functions of the government on the island, "I have to engage in these strange names", as long as the word "government" is not included? Why do you have to be stunned in front of the people and exclude the government?

In addition, he was also very interested in the ironware that those people got, and looked patiently for a long time, and finally couldn't help but walk over to stop a family, and looked at the complete sets of guys they just got in their hands.

And this time, what they provide to immigrants is a higher level than ordinary export products.

When Wang Pu was in the Qionghai market for a long time, his vision had been trained well, and he could even distinguish the manufacturing methods of some steel products. Wang Pu has always been very envious of this technology, and ordinary wrought iron can actually achieve the hardness of steel products after this method treatment, which greatly improves the practical process of tools. If it can be taught to the steelmakers of the Ming Dynasty, it is equivalent to how many more hundred steels!

It's a pity that the short-haired craftsmen, that is, the people in the so-called "industrial committee", are not as friendly to the Ming Dynasty as Mr. Li and others. There has always been a high degree of secrecy about their technology. Even the term "carburizing" was a chat with Mr. Li, and he inadvertently mentioned this aspect, and the old man told him such a term, and said that in fact, this craft was mastered by ancient craftsmen a long time ago, and there must have been blacksmiths in the Ming Dynasty who understood it, "but it has always been passed on as a secret skill of various families." There is no systematic understanding of the real principles and operating methods, and they only act according to experience", so they can't be applied as freely as they Qionghaizhen, and the effect is far from enough.

At that time, Wang Pu hurriedly wanted to ask for further advice on specific techniques, but the old man smiled and said that he specialized in literature and history, "I am engaged in literature and history, so I only understand the history of this kind of information, and the really detailed technical measures belong to the ability of the people in the industrial group" I don't know very well.

Although Wang Pu was a little disappointed, he also had a great sense of openness, and couldn't wait to write it in a secret letter and send it back to the mainland: "It is said that the Ministry of Industry of the Imperial Court has organized many master craftsmen of the iron-smelting family to work together to explore, and it may not take long to figure out the mystery."

However, the iron products of Qiongzhou shorthair are far ahead of the production of the Ming Dynasty, and this aspect will definitely not change, even if the Ming Dynasty really masters the carburizing technology, it will definitely be used in the military industry, and it is unlikely that there will be leisure like the shorthair to make civilian products.

What made Wang Pu even more shocked this time was that in addition to the carburizing process, Shorthair also used another more high-end technology plowshare, axe and short knife in the iron tools issued to immigrants, and even the kitchen knife, although it has not yet been opened, it can be seen that the material of the cutting edge is obviously different from the surrounding area, and it is actually a local use of steel.

First, this is the steel technology, the top technique used by the Ming Dynasty to make the most high-end weapons in the well, and the short hair was casually used on the folk kitchen knife plow, and it was hundreds of pieces!! ~!
