At the beginning of December, after fierce debate, the imperial court finally approved the plan for moving south along the frontier with the support of the emperor, including Zhendingfu, Dingzhou, Baozhou, Xiongzhou, Bazhou, Cangzhou, Mozhou, Guangxinjun and other ten prefectures, more than 100,000 households must move away from the border, to the Central Plains, Jianghuai, Jingxiang, Jiangnan and even overseas, and a small number of people to move to nearby cities.

But moving into the nearby big cities is also a very few, the Song army has to fight a protracted war, and the burden of these big cities cannot be too heavy, otherwise it will be difficult to bear, so at the insistence of Fanning, only 12 out of 10 people moved into the big city, and they are mainly young and strong.

In the snow-capped wilderness of Dingzhou, the long procession could not be seen at a glance, and the people pushed wheelbarrows, loaded with grain, sheepskins and other household goods, helping the old and the young, silently walking on the muddy official road.

After a hundred years of brutal threshing grass, that is, plundering the border people, the population of Baozhou, Xiongzhou, Bazhou and Guangxinjun is already very sparse, while Cangzhou is distributed with a large swamp and a small population, mainly Zhendingfu and Dingzhou and Mozhou, the three state capitals have the largest population, reaching 400,000 people.

Although it was less than a month before the Chinese New Year, Fanning still insisted that the people evacuate, and could not wait until after the New Year, when the Liao State suffered a great humiliation in Tokyo, how could they give up, and after the beginning of spring, they would definitely take strong revenge on the Song Dynasty and invade the Hebei border on a large scale, and it was inevitable to burn and loot the border people.

Moreover, it will take at least two or three months for 500,000 people to help the old and the young go south to Jiangnan, Jianghuai, Jingxiang, and other places.

According to Fanning's plan to move south, the 500,000 people would first rest in Xiangzhou and the Daimyo Mansion for two months, and then take a boat to Jiangnan, Jianghuai, and Jingxiang after the river thawed, so that the migration would not be too laborious.

The imperial court also paid a great price for this great migration, taking out 500,000 stone and 100,000 tents for grain alone, and also took out 20,000 hectares of official land, which was granted to each household at the standard of 20 acres, and the government promised that after the end of the war, the people who moved south could return to their hometowns at any time, and the government recognized the title deeds of their hometowns, and after returning to their hometowns, the land in the south would not be recovered, which gave the immigrants the opportunity to own two pieces of land.

It is also profitable, the resistance of the border people is not so strong, calculated, the land in the south can be sold for 200 yuan, 200 yuan in the eyes of the vast majority of poor people is a wealth that can not be saved in a lifetime, so after the news spread, the border people have responded to the government's call to move south, and even many people in big cities have joined the southward migration team.

There are many rest points set up along the way, a large county is a rest point, two or three thousand tents are set up, steamed buns are steamed, porridge is boiled, and Langzhong in the city comes out to see a doctor and distribute medicine to immigrants.

Nearly 2,000 people have gathered at the rest point outside Dingzhou, and nearly 2,000 tents have been set up, and the people have lined up in long lines to receive steamed buns and gruel, while the elderly and children have rested in large tents to escape the wind and cold.

Accompanied by several officials, Fanning inspected the rest point in Dingzhou, and when he walked past a large tent, he saw more than a dozen immigrant men gathering together to chat, so Fanning walked in with a smile.

When the immigrants saw an official wearing a purple unicorn robe coming in, they were all frightened and got up, everyone knew that the officials who could wear purple robes were all high-ranking officials above the third grade, this official was so young, it was not the prince.

Fan Ning was accompanied by the judge of the Xuanfu Embassy? P, Chapter? P is the champion of the second year of Zhiping, Jinshi and the first, won the respect of Han Qi, Han Qi served as the envoy of Hebei Xuanfu, also took him with him, and appointed him as the head of the six Cao to join the army.

Chapter? P is a late bloomer, thirty-eight years old before the entrance to the Jinshi champion, this year is forty-one years old, although he has not been in the office for a few years, but the problem is very familiar and sophisticated, but also won the respect of Fan Ning, although he is not qualified enough, Fan Ning still exceptionally promoted him to be a six-grade judge.

Another one who was promoted by Fan Ning was Sima Liu Kui, which was recommended to him by Di Qing, Liu Kui followed Di Qing to quell the rebellion of the barbarian chief Nong Zhigao in Guangyuan Prefecture, and was very talented in military affairs, and later was implicated in Di Qing's depreciation, and has been depressed, this time Di Qing came back, and recommended Liu Kui, who was already in his forties, to Fan Ning, and Fan Ning immediately appointed him as Sima of the staff battalion.

Chapter? P smiled and introduced to the people, "This is Fan Xianggong, the youngest and most promising man in our Great Song Dynasty, and I want to talk to you." ”

Everyone was suddenly stunned and saluted, and a middle-aged man hurriedly said, "It turned out that Xiao Fan Xianggong was here, and I was rude." ”

The people of the Great Song Dynasty all know that there are two Fan Xianggong, the old Fan Xianggong refers to Fan Zhongyan, and the little Fan Xianggong refers to Fan Ning.

Fan Ning smiled and waved his hand, "Fellow villagers, please sit down, let's talk casually, no formality." ”

Everyone sat on the ground, Fanning also sat on an old sheepskin, he touched the old sheepskin and smiled, "This kind of old sheepskin seems to be available in every household." ”

"Yes! The north is cold, this old sheepskin is very warm in winter, and the border area is not expensive, three hundred yuan a piece, it is a must-have for every family, this move to the south, thanks to it, otherwise many old people and children will be very tormented at night. ”

Fan Ning suddenly thought that the Song army had also captured more than 300,000 high-grade old sheepskins from Tokyo, Liao State, and issued one to each soldier, which was a very good military welfare.

Thinking of this, Fanning smiled and asked, "Will you have any extra old sheepskin?" The army can buy one, and five dollars of silver can buy one. ”

More than a dozen men looked at each other, and everyone smiled and said, "There should be more, many people have more than a dozen, and their practical use is not much, if you can exchange silver, I believe everyone is willing, get a lot of silver, and reduce the burden, why not?" ”

Fanning then said to the chapter? P said, "Write it down and implement it when you get back." ”

Chapter? P nodded, "Remember." ”

Fanning asked everyone again, "I see that everyone does not resist moving south, and almost all of them are willing to go south after mobilization, is there any reason for this?" ”

The middle-aged man at the head smiled and said, "The word is the head!" Although everyone wanted to escape the war, what really appealed to everyone was the fact that they would be able to get two pieces of land in the north and south in the future, and at least eight out of ten families were willing to go south for this reason, and I was no exception. ，”

Everyone asked again, "Xiao Fan Xianggong, will the imperial court keep its promise and give us all the land in the south and in our hometown?" ”

Fan Ning smiled slightly: "Everyone, don't worry!" This is the holy decree issued by the Son of Heaven, how can the Son of Heaven have a reason to repent? Besides, there are only 20,000 hectares of land, and the imperial court has 10,000 hectares of land overseas, how can it lose credit for this small profit. ”

Everyone was relieved, and Fanning asked again, "Do you have any other requirements?" ”

Someone outside the tent asked, "I heard that there is a medicine in Jiangnan, called What Boat Quyan Pill, which is very effective, can you send us a little." ”

When Fanning turned around, he was startled, and there were people standing outside who rushed to hear the news.

He asked the big tent to be opened, and said to everyone with a smile, "What you are talking about is the Tiezhou Flame Pill, which is indeed a famous medicine in Jiangnan, and the army is also equipped with a large number of them, and I will arrange for everyone to distribute them." ”

Tiezhou Anti-inflammatory Pill is an anti-inflammatory drug ordered by Fan Ning's father, Fan Tiezhou, which is actually the Pudilan Anti-inflammatory Tablets of later generations, which are made of dandelion, bitter dice, banlan root and starch gun, which has a good effect on anti-inflammatory.

After Fan Tiezhou's death, Fan Ning made this prescription public, and soon it became famous in the Jiangnan and Jianghuai regions, and named it Tiezhou Quyan Pill.

This medicine, together with the Sanqi Gold Creation Medicine, is equipped in large quantities in the army, and there is no problem for the victims of the disaster, which can prevent respiratory infections.

At this time, someone asked, "My brother's family moved to the Southern Continent last year, I don't know what happened to them?" ”

Fan Ning suddenly remembered that the first batch of immigrants from the Southern Continent came from Dingzhou, and he smiled and said, "I only came back from the Southern Continent not long ago, I have the most right to speak, the first county has been built in the Southern Continent, it is called Nanding County, mainly the people of Dingzhou, each of them can obtain ten hectares of land, that is, a thousand acres, the land is fertile, the water is abundant, the sun is shining, the main wheat and corn are grown, each family has a ten-acre house, tall courtyard walls, strong houses, at least three hundred years, Their children and grandchildren did not have to pay a penny of taxes to the government, nor did they have forced labor, and the favorite thing for the men there was to gather in the restaurant at night to drink and chat, and after drinking, they went to the bathhouse to take a bath together, and this was the case every day. ”

Everyone listened leisurely, and a big man asked, "But what if you go to a restaurant to drink and ask for money, what if you don't have money?" ”

"If you don't have money, you go to the smelting factory, go to the government ranch to raise cattle and sheep, and go to the wharf to transport goods, the salary is very high, and it is not hard."

"Can you marry a lady over there?" A young man asked.

Fan Ning smiled, "There is a textile factory over there, there are 5,000 young and beautiful Japanese ladies, all sixteen or seventeen years old, they work during the day, and gather at night to learn Chinese, everyone should know that there are many families in Kunzhou, Luzon, and Ryukyu who have married Japanese ladies, they are all from poor backgrounds, they are smart, and they can bear hardships and stand hard work, marry them and have children, anyway, they can afford to raise them, and they can study for free, each family can have a group of children, and they will be full of children and grandchildren when they are old." ”

By the time Fanning left, hundreds of people had gathered around the tent, and everyone was fascinated by what they were hearing.

Chapter? P sighed to Fanning, "It is estimated that tonight, there will be many people who can't sleep, and Xianggong has planted the seeds of going overseas in their hearts!" ”

Fan Ning smiled faintly, "I'm not fooling them, what I'm saying is the truth, none of the thousands of families who went to the Southern Continent regretted it, and none of them wanted to return to the Great Song Dynasty, this is what the people want." ”

In the following month, Fanning's down-to-earth conversation about the southern continent spread to 500,000 immigrants, and in the formal distribution two months later, the officials of the overseas envoys received a huge surprise, and more than 20,000 families chose to emigrate overseas.

The root cause of this is that Fan Ning had a chance symposium a few months ago, which made the officials of the Overseas Economic Strategy Office very emotional, and Fan Jingliu could make a huge contribution to overseas operations even if he resigned.
