Chapter 280: The Happy Life of an Immigrant

"Commander, I'm glad I didn't disgrace my life. The governments of the entire three southwestern provinces www.biquge.info have already taken action. A large number of refugees are heading south along the road. Soon, we will arrive in Myanmar. Preliminary estimates suggest that we will be able to absorb at least a few million migrants. If all goes well, it could even absorb tens of millions of immigrants. Foreign Minister Wang Xudong reported to Qin Shou with an excited face.

"Very good, very good! This time, it's a great job! Qin Shou was also very happy.

Although, tens of millions of migrants are pouring into Myanmar, which will put great pressure on the Myanmar junta. But as long as the first year passed. Soon immigrants will be able to become self-sufficient. At that time, the food tax they pay will be able to support the food consumption of the Burmese military government and the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army. Myanmar can also raise all the food needed for industrialization.

Myanmar's natural climate is very good, and the grain crops can basically be harvested three times a year. In the past, the Burmese natives did not know how to take care of the fields and grow crops. Coupled with the laziness to eat, there will naturally be no good harvest. The hard-working Chinese are different, they treat their own land and their crops very carefully. It's just that most of the peasants don't have land.

Now, after the Burmese junta gave them land. They will surely cultivate it with their hearts. The natural and unique geographical environment, coupled with the hard-working farmers, is impossible without a bumper harvest!

"I hope Jiang Guangtou will find out later that we are absorbing immigrants. In this way, we will be able to absorb more immigrants. It is best to absorb all the tens of millions of immigrants from the three southwestern provinces. Prime Minister Chen Jiasheng said with a smile.

"Haha, if there are really tens of millions of immigrants, then we don't have to worry." Chief of Staff Liu Shiquan also smiled.

Everyone is very happy that the immigration program has been successful. Because immigration means not only an abundant labor force, but also a sufficient number of soldiers. If tens of millions of refugees can be absorbed into Myanmar, they will no longer be short of labor and soldiers.

Of course, Myanmar is only 700,000 square kilometers and is somewhat crowded with tens of millions of migrants. But don't forget, soon, the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army will launch an attack on Thailand. Next is the Malay Peninsula, Sumatra and Kalimantan, as well as Java, Indochina, the Philippine Islands and so on. In these areas, there are fewer Chinese and more natives. No matter how many refugees are absorbed, there will be enough places for them to settle. In addition, these refugees can also play a stabilizing role in the rule of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the immigration program has been successful. So, the next thing we need to do is to make the immigrants who come to Myanmar feel at home, and make them determined to put down roots in Myanmar. In this way, our plan can be regarded as truly successful. Prime Minister, in this regard, we have to rely on the government to do a good job of guidance. Qin Shou said.

"Commander, don't worry, the junta has already made plans. We will first settle those settlers in the Grape Plains and Hugang Valley, and then gradually from north to south. Houses for immigrants, we've already started building. They were all Burmese natives arrested by the army. Officials from the Upper Burma Military Region then divide land and distribute food and other production materials to the migrants to ensure that they can start productive life as soon as they arrive in Burma. Chen Jiasheng replied.

Qin Shou nodded, in this case, it would be even better. As long as the junta can do a good job in the resettlement of migrants, refugees from the three southwestern provinces will continue to arrive in Myanmar and then take root here. The industrialization development plan can also be carried out in an orderly manner. Then, the foundation of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army will be able to be laid little by little.

A Burma, where the people were rich and the industry was developed, and at the same time full of loyalty and love for the anti-Japanese National Salvation Army, would become the cornerstone of Qin Shou's conquest of the entire South Seas. Qin Shou hoped to seize the last two and a half years of the war to expand the sphere of influence of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army to the entire South Seas in one fell swoop. When the time comes, even if the Americans find out that there is a situation where the tail is too big to fall, they can only pinch their noses and admit it.

It's a big deal, Qin Shou pretended to hug the American's thigh. In order to make the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army fall to them, the Americans can only admit this fact, and even provide more support to the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army.

Grape Plains, the northernmost plain of Myanmar. It was originally the site of the 18th Division of the Japanese Army. After the 18th Division of the Japanese Army was completely annihilated, it was already controlled by the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army.

Rows of houses, neatly towering over the plain, are all wooden houses. These houses were all forcibly built by the soldiers of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army, Burmese natives.

In the distance, more houses are being built.

For the upcoming migrants, the Myanmar junta is arranged in the form of settlements. A migration of 100 families makes up a settlement. These migrants, under the guidance of junta officials, will reclaim wasteland and cultivate the plains of Myanmar.

The first immigrants arrived very quickly. They are all refugees from Caiyun Province. After Long Zhizhou and the Burmese junta reached an agreement, the migration of Caiyun province began.

The migrants traveled south from the Burma Highway and climbed over the mountains into the Grape Plains.

"Hurry up, everyone, tomorrow you will be at the first settlement. A hundred inhabitants, will be housed there. We have prepared houses and food for you there, as well as seeds and other means of production. When you arrive, there will be officials who will divide the land for you. Now, you'll be able to live here. Officials from the Burmese junta told the migrants.

After climbing over the mountains, an endless plain appeared in the eyes of these immigrants.

"Sir, are all those lands ours?" An old man said, pointing to the plain in front of him.

"Yes, according to the decree signed by the commander, each immigrant can get twenty acres of land, and after ten years of cultivation, it will belong to your private property." The official replied.

"Great, Commander he is an old man, what a good man!" The immigrants immediately cheered.

Although, they went through a long journey, and some even died on the road and did not reach Myanmar. However, those who arrived, undoubtedly saw hope.

This fertile land will become their home. They will farm, live, and live happily ever after on this land. Although, everything has to start from scratch, it will be difficult. However, they have undoubtedly seen a happy future.
