In the second half of the fourth year of the Apocalypse, the sea wolf almost poured everything into the coastal area to secretly recruit immigrants.

Moreover, the sea wolf also semi-publicly announced that anyone who is willing to immigrate to Taiyuan Island will be given a settlement fee of three taels per family, a set of farm tools, and a ploughing cow for every third family, and the land will be owned by themselves, and the taxes will be exempted in the first year, and the second and third years will be reduced by half, and at the same time, they can also obtain the protection of the sea wolf.

Although the sea wolf has a good reputation in Fuzhou in the past two years, the coastal people have not suffered a serious scourge from it, and even many fishermen have benefited from what they have done, but after all, they still have a reputation as thieves, and many people still don't want to believe them.

But by the end of the fourth year of the Apocalypse, the situation began to improve, not because the people had changed their attitude towards the sea wolf, but because someone had confirmed to them that the sea wolf's integrity had been confirmed.

The first batch of immigrants who were deceived into settling on Nanri Island, after settling on Nanri Island for more than a year, gradually found that although this group of sea wolves is a pirate, but they are very different from other pirates, they do what they say, and they treat them immigrants quite a lot.

So these people were instructed by the sea wolf to send them back to their hometown, and recruited landless villagers from their fellow villagers for the sea wolf's propaganda and immigrated to Taiyuan Island to expand their farming.

After someone showed up to say the truth, this matter was much easier to do, and the common people were more willing to believe in the word of mouth of their fellow villagers, and now they saw that some fellow villagers had returned to their hometowns, and it seemed to be much more beautiful than before, so they began to be tempted.

At the end of the Ming Dynasty, social contradictions accumulated day by day, and it has reached a very high level, and land annexation has reached a very serious level, and a large amount of land has been occupied by the powerful through various means, making a considerable part of the peasants become landless peasants.

And the idea of the peasants is very simple, that is, to have a piece of land of their own, which is better than anything else, and this has gone deep into the bone marrow of the peasants.

They toiled on land for decades, not only could not afford to buy land, but could not even keep the land they had owned, and now when they learned that someone was willing to give them land for free, and the land they reclaimed would be counted in their name, the temptation was too great for modern people to understand.

In the eyes of many peasants, in order to get a piece of land of their own, they can give up everything for this, and some people secretly appear to say that they are encouraged to go to recruitment, so gradually more and more landless peasants began to express their willingness to try.

Now the sea wolves are very experienced in operating this kind of thing, they have set up routes or detailed work in many places on land, and after receiving the news that someone is willing to go to Taiyuan Island to immigrate, they will go to the initiative to contact them as soon as possible, and then take them to the coastal area and concentrate on the people who stay on the shore.

These immigrants will fill a boatload when they have saved up enough to ship it immediately, and send it to Xiaori Island in the north of Nanri Island, where these immigrants will undergo a unified physical examination, and then quarantine for about a week, and the sea wolf will distribute the promised settlement fee and various farm tools to them, and at the same time, among them, a steward will be temporarily selected as their spokesperson, responsible for managing these immigrants on behalf of the sea wolf.

Of course, if the sea wolf talks to these immigrants, he will also talk to these stewards, and the treatment for them will be relatively better.

In general, before these immigrants are sent to Jilong Bay and Tamsui Village, in addition to the necessary simple quarantine, they are not allowed to rest at the temporary transit station, Yu Xiaotian also arranged for a special person, taking advantage of these days, to instill some sense of obedience in these immigrants, telling them that after arriving at the new settlement, they must follow the instructions of the sea wolf, one is to avoid conflicts with the old local immigrants, and the other is to learn to protect themselves.

For these immigrants, after Yu Xiaotian considered it, he finally decided to implement semi-military management for them, and learned from the armor protection system of later generations to manage the immigrants.

These immigrants from all over the world, if there is no effective system to manage them, after they arrive at the new settlement point, it is estimated that they will be a mess, and there will be endless internal struggles between them, so don't want to let them carry out the expansion in a down-to-earth manner.

Therefore, the implementation of the armor protection system is a very good way for the management of these immigrants, the basic unit of the armor protection system is to take the household as the unit, each household has a head of household, ten households are a first, elect a chief, ten a guarantee, and the personnel sent by the sea wolf serve as the chief of the guarantee, responsible for the management of the sponsor.

In principle, the new resettlement point is based on the protection unit, and one guarantee is exactly 100 households, forming a larger resettlement village, each household has a ding, as a Ding, who works as a farmer on weekdays, and the farmers should be under the leadership of the security chief, carry out military training, and once something happens, they need to take up arms under the leadership of the first chief, and the security chief will be uniformly dispatched to defend their migrant villages.

In this way, an immigrant village has a reserve force of about 100 people at any time, and with the assistance of other young people in the village, the self-defense ability of a settlement is quite good, as long as the wall is built, these new immigrant villages can have a strong self-protection force.

This kind of armor protection system is very conducive to the sea wolf to control the immigrants on the current territory, if the sea wolf needs to expand the army in the future, it can even directly recruit the armor to enlist, these immigrants are the resources of their sea wolf to expand the army in the future.

The immigrants benefit from the life given to them by the sea wolf, and they have formed a community with the sea wolf in terms of interests, so they will naturally have the same heart as the sea wolf, and they will not worry about not helping the sea wolf in the future.

Therefore, the matter of immigration to Taiyuan Island has been fully rolled out by the end of the fourth year of the Apocalypse, and before the end of the year, the sea wolf has already immigrated nearly 2,000 people beyond the Tamsui River, forming four large settlements around Tamsui Village, which has become the backbone of Tamsui Village.

On the whole, in the last few months of the fourth year of the Apocalypse, the work of the sea wolf in the two places of Jilong Bay and Tamsui Village has been fully rolled out, and the progress can be said to be quite good.

However, at the end of the year, the sea around Quanzhou in Chaozhou has become not very calm, and since the beginning of November, several ships of unknown origin have suddenly appeared on the sea south of Quanzhou, setting off a bloody storm in this large area of water.

As for the sudden appearance of these ships of unknown origin, the most depressed ones are probably Chu Cailao and his men.

Because after a period of time, they gradually discovered that these strange-shaped boats were actually specifically aimed at their Chu Cai.

In less than a month from the beginning of November to the beginning of December, Chu Cailao and his shopkeepers actually folded more than a dozen boats in the hands of these ships of unknown origin.

At first, Chu Cailao didn't care much about this matter, thinking that the sea was so big, and there were so many people doing their job, and these boats must also be their peers, but they just fished their hands on his territory.

But it wasn't until he heard that his subordinates had lost several boats one after another, that he realized that these ships of unknown origin were probably not as simple as he thought, and these boats seemed to be specially based on his Chu Cai's old man, and he specially picked his Chu Cai's old ships to attack.

Chu Cailao began to pay attention to these few boats that appeared on his territory inexplicably, and sent people to start collecting news about these boats of unknown origin, intending to take down these boats to see who ate the bear's heart and leopard gall and dared to run to his land to find trouble for him.

However, the information collected made Chu Cailao scratch his head a little, and he wanted to retaliate, but found that things were not as simple as he thought.

He had never seen these boats, but he had heard them say from his men who had escaped their attacks that they were as difficult to deal with as ghosts.

No one could tell how many of these ships they had, but they looked strange, they were long, narrow, low, straight, with only one mast, soft sails, and surprisingly fast, far from the Ming boats, and they looked a little like the ships of the Tessies, but they felt a little different, because they had never seen a Tessie ship before, but they had never seen a similar ship like this.

The hull of the ship that attacked them was not as big as that of the Tessians and it looked like it was about one hundred and fifty to two hundred, but it was very fast, and it could be said that it came and went like the wind on the sea, and at the same time it was extremely flexible.

These boats always act together in two or three, and they launch a surprise attack when Chu Cai's old men's ships are lonely, and they never make any sense, once they appear, they immediately and unceremoniously launch an attack, leaving no chance for Chu Cai's old men at all.

What's even more terrifying is that in addition to the speed of these ships, their ships are also equipped with a lot of sharp Hongyi cannons, these cannons on their ships, not only hit far, but also very accurate, can be shelled 200 paces away from the old ships of Chu Cai, and the cannonballs hit hard and accurately.

Often, after Chu Cailao's subordinates met them, they could almost be said to have no power to fight back, and in just a few moments, they were beaten by the ship's planks cracked, the mast fell down, and even the ship was destroyed.

What made Chu Cailao even more incomprehensible was that these boats didn't seem to care very much about the goods on his ships, if they could, they would rob them, and if they couldn't, they would simply fire cannons to destroy his ships, and then they would leave.

This made Chu Cailao puzzled, what are these unidentified ships trying to do? Why don't they care about the goods, but only want to destroy his ships?

Thinking about it, there is only one reason why the other party does this, and that is revenge! It must be that he Chu Cai has offended someone, and now people don't want to tear their faces with him in person, play with them, and use this way to retaliate against them.

Thinking of this, Chu Cai is angry, and now looking at the coastal area of Daming, although he Chu Cai Lao does not dare to say that he is the number one pirate, but he can be similar to his strength or exceed his strength peers, and a slap can basically be counted.

Who the fuck is so bold as to dare to take revenge on him like this by such means? So when Chu Cailao arrived in Layue, he really couldn't sit still, and ordered his subordinates to start gathering their subordinates and go all out to patrol these ships specifically for them, so as to find a way to catch them and find out who instructed these boats.

In short, Chu Cai was almost driven crazy by these inexplicable boats.
